Chapter 33: Pig's Head
When Jiang Momo climbed up the mountain, he saw Qin Tian setting up a fire on the edge of the stream, and a small aluminum pot was cooking something on top of the fire.
At first glance, the quality of this rice was given to him by Jiang Momo before, and now the rice is not so large, the soil nutrition cannot keep up, and the varieties of rice are not good.
Jiang Momo put a lot of things in the back basket in advance.
After two months of non-stop planting, harvesting, and sales upgrades, Jiang Momo's buckle farm has reached level ten, and level ten can grow watermelons, strawberries, apples, and other ordinary fruits.
But the strawberries are out of season, Jiang Momo didn't dare to take them out except for stealing a little by herself, and only brought back ten catties of red apples after going to the town to buy salt, and told the old lady with a distressed face that it costs three cents a catty.
Every year before the Chinese New Year, the commune holds a special three-day meeting, in addition to rice, flour, grain and oil, other agricultural and sideline products can be bartered and sold for money, which is the default within each commune, but it is only these three days, apples can also be bought, and a pound is only three cents, but compared to Jiang Momo to get back the three cents and a pound of apples, it is really far behind, no comparison.
Yao Huazhi poked Jiang Momo's head angrily, muttering that her daughter was a loser, but she quickly put down the three fruits, and put away the others.
Seeing this, Jiang Momo hurriedly told the old lady that she had sent five catties to her grandmother's family, although Yao Huazhi was angry with her daughter's big spending, she was very happy that her daughter was filial to her mother's family.
Watermelon, Jiang's vegetable garden was planted, when it was not good, Jiang Momo picked a half-baked one, and exchanged it with the melon on his own farm to eat, that is called a sweet, in the words of Jiang Dad, it is really alive and understood.
Jiang Momo gave Qin Tian a big watermelon, a big bag of apples, a big bundle of celery, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and finally ten catties of wheat grains.
Qin Tian didn't know if he had learned it from Jiang Momo, but when he saw that the thing was put aside, he got up and flipped it up, first found an apple and ate it with a click, just listening to the sound, he knew how crisp this fruit was, and Jiang Momo, who didn't know how many apples he had eaten, wanted to have another one.
Jiang Momo ignored Qin Tian, and went to the cave first to take a look at the pork that had been smoked all night, all of them were shiny and red, which was really good, Qin Tian explained later: "The temperature insulation effect of the mountain wall is good, and the smoked meat is dry and bright, and it will be fine for another night." ”
Jiang Momo looked at it, turned to look at Qin Tian again, and asked, "Didn't sleep all night last night?"
Qin Tian glanced at the petite girl and said lightly, "I slept for a while." ”
Jiang Momo hesitated and said, "Why don't you let my father come over and guard me tonight?"
Qin Tian shook his head and said, "No need, I'll do it myself." ”
Jiang Momo didn't persuade much, she felt that Qin Tian had his own plan for doing things, he said that there was no problem, then it should be no problem.
After cleaning up the pork liver and pork belly, Jiang Momo asked, "Does He Liang have a grudge against you?"
Qin Tian stopped his hand to clean up the fruits and vegetables, stood up and looked at Jiang Momo and said, "What did he say to you?"
Jiang Momo shook her head and said: "I usually don't interact with the educated youth in the village, but the last time you fell into the water, I saw a back, and then I observed it a few times, and the back was seven or eight points similar to He Liang." ”
Qin Tian nodded and said, "Last time, he pushed me into the water." "If you have more, you will be gone.
Jiang Momo shrugged, just with your current hand, eight wild boars, and asked someone to push the water, how can you explain it.
Halfway through, as soon as he got out of the cave, Jiang Momo put things in the warehouse of the buckle farm, and walked forward happily, when he was about to get home, he not only carried the frame on his back, but also fished out a large bundle of pigweed in his hand, and those who didn't know thought that Jiang Momo cut a box of pigweed, not to mention, he was still carrying a large bundle in his hand, he was really a diligent child.
The diligent child Jiang Momo smelled a fragrance when he got home, Jiang Dad stewed pig's head, pig intestines, and pork belly!
The pig's head is not delicious to make cured meat, it is not as fragrant as lo-mei, and the seasoning of every household is limited, so Jiang Dad and Yao Huazhi discussed it and allocated the eight pig heads.
There are two pig heads on the Yue family's side, a pork belly and two pig intestines, and the old man Jiang is also like this, which is fair and reasonable.
There are four pig heads left, a large pig head, a pork belly and a pair of pig intestines to give to Jiang Dad's friend Chen family, which is the old Chen family who helped inquire about the news and visit the fool's house before.
The others were all marinated, and then cut into plates, and sent a little more or less to the people with good relations, of course, Qin Tian, who is now temporarily allied with the Jiang family.
When Daddy Jiang carried a big basket on his back and sent it to Uncle Jiang, Mr. Jiang was stunned, looking at the two huge pig heads, especially the clean ones, the saliva almost dripped down, his old man had no meat in his life, and his favorite was this pig offal, which was called a fragrant, if he could drink two or two small wines, he would live ten years less!
Grandma Jiang's craftsmanship is needless to say, the stew is really ancestral heirloom, the spice is called a fragrant, and when the meat is stewed, Daddy Jiang and Grandpa Jiang Uncle Jiang whispered: "The troops go up the mountain to hunt pigs to improve the food, and the pig's head and pig offal are cleaned up, and they will all be given to me a friend, and my friend has divided a few, I think that my father and eldest brother love to eat this bite, and I cleaned it up overnight with Huazhi, and we will make up for it as a family!"
Old Man Jiang whispered, "Do you still know people from the army?"
Dad Jiang said embarrassedly: "My friends know each other, and I got a lot this time, and I have divided them." "Dad Jiang said vaguely, on the one hand, he explained the source of the pig's head, on the other hand, he didn't want Dad to ask more, after all, the army belongs to a secret-related unit, and he doesn't need to explain it too clearly.
Old man Jiang nodded understandingly, thinking about the people on the side of the big house when the second son was good, he was very satisfied, and said to the old avenue: "When the pig's head is cooked, ask the eldest baby to send half of it to his fourth uncle." ”
Jiang Dashan sighed busily.
A few people were talking inside, Jiang Yue'e frowned and stood in front of the window eavesdropping, the sister-in-law of the Jiang family's big house passed by and looked at the sister-in-law, and frowned, what is wrong with this sister-in-law, why do you still like eavesdropping, and I don't know if I have eavesdropped on the window of her house.
In the afternoon, because of the Jiang family's braised pig's head meat, the village was full of fragrance, the Jiang family's big house and the second room were sent to the familiar people, and Qin Tian got the lo-mei of a large clay pot, some boiled pig's head, pork liver, pig belly, pig intestine, pig lung, Jiang Momo also used green onions, ginger, garlic and onions to adjust the taste.
Qin Tian steamed a big pot of rice, and he was all dried, and the young people who smelled the smell around him only rolled their eyes, this Qin Tian was really stingy, this old meat, he actually ate it alone.
