Chapter 269
Li Mei was going to make bacon, and the remaining half a catty of meat was naturally not enough, and the next day she was going to go to the county town to buy meat with a meat ticket, but Ye Guijuan told her that there was meat to sell in the brigade, and there was no meat ticket. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info It turns out that the pigs fed by the production brigade, in addition to killing one and giving it to the whole brigade, will sell the rest directly to the supply and marketing cooperatives.
The pigs in the brigade are basically all bought live pigs, but occasionally they will kill one more when they are good and sell them to members, which is considered self-produced and sold. This year is a bumper year, so the team is ready to kill one more and sell it to the members.
Knowing this good news, Li Mei naturally won't let it go, and will go to buy meat with the money. Li Mei directly bought ten catties in one go, others generally buy one catty or two catties like this, and buying ten catties like Li Mei is really a big deal.
Li Mei's move like this will naturally cause criticism.
"Daughter-in-law of Yuanchao, you are now divided into families, and Yuanchao is not at home, is it a bit too wasteful for you to buy so much meat in one go. "Aunt Zhao, who also came to buy meat, saw that Li Mei bought so much, as an elder, she naturally had to persuade her. lest Li Mei defeat her family.
Li Mei also knew that Aunt Zhao had good intentions, so she smiled and said, "Third aunt, this meat is not bought for me to eat, I bought this meat to prepare to be made into bacon and sent to Brother Zhao." ”
When Aunt Zhao heard that Li Mei's meat was sent to Zhao Yuanchao, she nodded with satisfaction. "You think about your eldest nephew in everything, and it can be regarded as a blessing for your eldest nephew. However, even if this meat is for the eldest nephew, you don't want to buy so much, and it is not easy for the eldest nephew to make some money. ”
"Look at what you said third aunt, I am Brother Zhao's daughter-in-law, I don't think about him, who else can I think about. Li Mei said with a smile, as for Aunt Zhao persuading her to buy less meat, Li Mei didn't take it to heart.
If conditions allow, Li Mei wants to buy a pig. When the time comes, she can make bacon, sausages, cured pork ribs......
It's a pity that she doesn't have this condition now, and now she can only buy this bit of meat at most.
After the meat was bought, Li Mei used a knife to cut it into a strip, which weighed about two catties a day. When the meat is cool, you can touch the salt.
After the meat was bought, Li Mei was ready to continue her unfinished shoes. As soon as they took it out, they saw Zhao Zijun and they were carrying baskets and preparing to go out. Li Mei asked more, "Zijun, what are you doing with the basket?"
"Auntie, we're going to dig up the roots of the ear, are you going?" Zhao Zijun told Li Mei their plans and invited Li Mei to go with him.
"You wait for me to put my things away, and I'll go with you. Zhao Zijun didn't mention it, Li Mei forgot that he could still dig this thing and come back to eat it at this time.
No wonder she looked, because she hadn't dug up this thing in decades. In my previous life, before I got married, I would dig up the roots of my ears and come back to eat them cold. But after getting married, you have to serve a large family, and you don't have a chance to dig this thing again. Therefore, even if they were reborn and Zhao Zijun didn't mention it, Li Mei would have forgotten about it a long time ago.
This folded ear root is a good thing, and Li Meiting likes to eat it. In my previous life, after getting married, I didn't have a chance to dig it. I didn't have a chance to eat, and when the children were older and dug back, she would serve them cold. But later, the conditions at home got better and better, and the children no longer went to dig the roots of the folded ears, and if they wanted to eat the folded roots, they went to the vegetable market supermarket to buy them.
But all the food sold in the supermarket vegetable market is artificially cultivated, and there is this wild deliciousness.
"Zijun, where are we going to dig?" Li Mei took her tools and immediately asked.
"Go to the field in front of the stone house and dig it, as long as we don't dig up the field, his family won't open his mouth to drive people out. Zhao Zijun said.
It's not a loss to be the child king of the village, and he knows who he knows very well.
Don't look at this easy to dig up the root of the ear, but it is also exquisite. The roots of these folded ears usually grow on the ridges of the fields, or in the soil. For example, some people don't want people to dig in the fields or soil, because they are afraid that children will not be able to dig up the fields or trample on the crops. If the crops are trampled to death, there will be less harvest next year, which will knock down the fields, and they will have to be rebuilt next year. So, whatever it is, everyone doesn't want to see it.
Soon, the five of them came to the Tiankan in the stone house that Zhao Zijun said, and no one had come to dig the folded ears here, so there were more folded ears.
The five men took out their scythes from the blue and began to dig. The roots of this folded ear root are the most delicious, but in order not to dig up the fields, everyone does not dare to go deeper. The deeper you dig, the more tender this root becomes.
In the morning, Li Mei dug up a basket of folded ear roots, and Li Mei ate it alone, which could be used as a dish for almost two days.
Li Mei did not take the dug folded ears home, but took them to the river, ready to wash them and then take them home.
The ears are dug out of the soil, so there is a lot of mud, and if you take it back and wash it, it will take a lot of water. Although Li Mei does not need to pick the water at home, in order to reduce Zhao Wenhua's burden, Li Mei called the children to go to the river to wash the folded ear roots before taking them back.
After washing, you have to carefully select and select all the unwanted weeds. Then wash it again with the water that has fallen back from the well, and then it will be good.
The ingredients at home are limited, so I only put some salt, garlic and vinegar. If there is monosodium glutamate, Sichuan pepper and spicy sea pepper, white sugar will taste better. There are only these ingredients at home, and they can only be eaten.
At noon, Li Mei cooked corn paste, folded her ears with cold mixing, and ate a full bowl. Li Mei felt that her belly was about to burst.
At noon, not only Li Mei mixed the folded ear root, but Ye Guijuan and Liu Hongmei also mixed the folded ear root of the cold salad. Today, Zhao's house is full of the smell of folded ears inside and out.
"As I said, there is nothing wrong with marrying a daughter-in-law and forgetting her mother. If there is good food, I won't think of those of us who are fathers and mothers at all. Tang Nengzhen held a bowl of corn paste in her hand, and began to count the daughters-in-law with a calm face.
"Mom, it's just a little wild vegetable, why do you want to talk about these again?" Zhao Xiaofang looked helpless. "My sisters-in-law are already very good to you, didn't the dumplings made by my sister-in-law tomorrow send us a bowl? If you tell others that your sister-in-law is not filial, others will not believe you. ”
If you want to eat it, you can dig it in the ground. Why bother to talk about marrying a daughter-in-law and forgetting your mother for a trivial matter? Her sister-in-law will even bring you some dumplings to eat, if this is the case, it is called forgetting your mother, then the men in this world should not marry their daughters-in-law, and they will all be singles.
"Since you are even willing to give away dumplings, why don't you send some wild vegetables to us today......
Zhao Xiaofang and Zhao Tianzhu didn't bother to pay attention to her anymore. Anyway, no matter what she did, she could pick the bone out of the egg.
