Chapter 97: More abundant than the New Year
"You can still be an intellectual now, Lao Zhang's stomach is full of ink. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info girl, you follow your master to study hard, absorb all the ink in his stomach, and strive to be a famous doctor, without you running around with a medicine box, people will come to the door with money bags and baba. That's a treat!"
"By then, hey, our brigade will be famous. There is a famous Dr. Shu, who doesn't know the name of our Yanqi Brigade. ”
"How do you know that Yingfang will always live here, Gangzi's performance in the army is said to be very good, maybe he will become a cadre and a house in two years. When the time comes, Yingfang will follow Gangzi with the army, otherwise, how can the young and vigorous young man stand the separation of the two places......"
"Come on, come on! Not to mention that you are still getting farther and farther away, and the little girl is blushing when you don't see anyone, it should be you faceless married women. Deng Mei saw that Qingling's fair face instantly became popular, and stopped the topic with a smile.
At this time, Xiang Gang happened to carry the fat head fish to the well to cut and kill, and everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw this.
Xiang Gang, who didn't know yet, was confused by laughter, but when he saw Qingling with a pretty face, his heart suddenly understood - Bacheng was jointly teased by the aunts who could speak well.
Jun raised his eyebrows and beckoned to Qingling: "Come, help send half of the fish head to Brother Yongfu's house, what I promised him yesterday is not good not to honor." ”
"Hey!" Qingling sighed with relief when she saw that she had something to do.
In the kind laughter of the aunts, he ran to Xiang Gang's side with shame and sweetness, watched him raise the knife and fall, and cut the fish head from the fat head fish in a flash, cut it into two neatly, put half of the fish head into the vegetable basket, and let Qingling take it to Zhang Yongfu's house.
There is only half a fish head left, and it can't be turned into a noodle dish on the left and right, so it is simply reserved for a few people to eat at night.
The fish body is shaved off the scales, the intestines are removed, washed and stamped into pieces, sprinkled with salt and marinated, and braised fish is made for everyone to eat.
It is indeed an additional meal, but there is no such dish in the table list of the second elder of the Zhang family. But everyone didn't know, thinking that the second elder was polite, not only on the big meat, but also on the big fish, which was more abundant than the New Year.
Xiang just finished killing the fish, and he had to slaughter the chicken and the rabbit.
It is not domestic, so it "picks up" the pheasants and hares that the wild boars hunted on that day. Raising two chickens at home is already the limit, not to mention the cost of raising too much food, and it is easy to be reported by people with a heart.
As for rabbits, they have to have cages, and they are easy to slip away from the nests. Then you have to serve vegetables and radishes, otherwise you will be easy to get sick. So they were all killed, there was not enough pork, and the game was supplemented.
The chickens are killed and handed over to the aunts to remove their hair and wash their internal organs.
Xiang Gang is in charge of cutting rabbits. The rabbit skin was completely peeled off, washed and put together with the earlier rabbit skins, and when it was dry, take a blunt shovel to remove the oil film and residual meat attached to the skin, and then soak it in clean water for a day or two, so that the fur can be restored to the state when it was fresh, and the nitrate was successful.
When it's cold, make a shoulder for the girl, the kind that can be worn inside and out. The plush one must be very warm.
Rabbit meat is also cut into pieces, put into a red pot and fried, without oil (first, the rabbit meat itself is rich in oil, and second, it is a great waste for the villagers who are used to saving meat and oil), but it is necessary to put aside some old wine to remove the smell, and then put in the sliced and cut ginger, garlic, green onion white, chili, and then sprinkle in salt, drip into soy sauce, add enough water, and simmer on the stove.
Rabbit meat is relatively easy to cook, so the fire does not need to be very large, so a small adobe stove is used, which is supported in the yard. The mellow aroma of the meat soon overflowed from the cracks of the lid of the pot, and the fragrance was so fragrant that the people who did the work snorted and called "hungry for individuals".
Xiang Gang cooked the rabbit meat, returned to the stove room to help Grandma Zhang stomp on the minced meat, and prepared to make braised lion's head and meatball soup.
Ten catties of wild boar, the amount is not too small, part of the stomping minced meat, with the fat part of the leather clip, cut into small pieces of stewed braised pork.
Qingling's ten catties of meat refused to be used, so he bought back the salt yesterday, rubbed the meat back and forth twice, and after marinating it into salted meat, he turned around and gave half of it to the senior brother in the provincial capital to taste.
Grandma Zhang cut the meat into long strips of uniform thickness, pierced each one, tied it with a straw rope, and let Qingling take it home to dry.
Today's banquet was held, people came and went, and people saw so much meat at home, and there were gossips about it. The annoying old lady Shu always felt that her eldest granddaughter's elbow was turned out, not to mention the meat this time, but the old Shu family did not get it, if she knew that her family not only had braised pork to eat, but also had so much extra salted meat, maybe how to make trouble.
The second elder thought that more things were better than less, but he didn't know that Mrs. Shu would bite people when she had the opportunity.
No, Qingling carried a vegetable basket to Zhang Yongfu's house to deliver fish heads, and met Mrs. Shu who went to the cowshed to deliver breakfast to her son halfway.
It's actually a bit late to deliver breakfast at this point. But who made the old Shu family not diligent.
Locked up in the cowshed from Shu Jianqiang, Liu Qiaocui seemed to have lost her soul, she was strange at work, sighed at work, couldn't lift her energy, and often chattered and didn't know what she was muttering.
Shu Caiyun's personality is completely inherited from her mother, and she is a typical lazy type. Usually supervised by Mrs. Shu to do some work, but now seeing that her mother is so lazy, she simply broke the jar and broke it, and played with Laipi - after breakfast, she ran away without seeing anyone, and its beautiful name was "picking mushrooms" and "raking wild vegetables", God knows that the wild vegetables brought back were not even satisfied with a shallow basket. It is common to be chased and beaten by Mrs. Shu - crying and grabbing the ground when beating, and jumping out as usual after the fight.
In this way, all the work at home is on Mrs. Shu's head, and she also wants to take the burden off, but who let the cowshed be the baby son and the only son.
Early in the morning, it was feeding chickens and cooking, and there was nowhere to pour out a belly of fire, and on the way to deliver food, I met Qingling, and found that there was half a fish head in the vegetable basket she was carrying.
As he spoke, he wanted to step forward and grab it.
Qingling quickly dodged to the side of the road, looked at Mrs. Shu, who had no image, frowned and said, "Grandma, what do you mean by this? The fish head is not mine, I just helped send it." ”
"The little cheap hoof has learned to lie! It's not yours who will lie in your vegetable basket? Who is so generous? Don't bother, it must be yours! Bring it to me! Your uncle is in the cowshed, he can't eat or sleep well, and he has lost a lot of weight. You are a niece, and give him half a fish head to replenish his body, is this a matter of course? Why don't you bring it quickly!"
