30. Braised pork
CHAPTER XXXI
After they discussed the business of making hot and sour noodles, they pressed out all the noodles while they had time. The sweet potatoes of the two families add up to a lot of old and young, and there are a lot of vermicelli pressed out.
Orange had been thinking about digging a cellar, and she wanted to store some ice in it in the winter, so that she could not eat cold snacks in the summer, which would be much cooler than putting them in the well.
Not to mention that it can also store food and vegetables and the like, in case ...... If there is a case, there is a way out. There is a mountain behind their house, and it is best to dig the cellar deep and have an exit in the woods.
As soon as she said this idea, everyone fell silent. Chi Dazhu was the first to speak: "What can happen in a peaceful and prosperous world?" Don't they all say that the emperor is a wise man, and the taxes are less than those of the older generation. ”
Zhao He also nodded yes, "I remember that there was a cellar at home when my father was still there, and I never thought about digging it when I moved here." ”
"I think what the orange said is reasonable, not to mention that the cellar has been stored for a long time, just in the future, in case of any accident, we also have a way out." Songbai's hand was caged in his sleeve, how could he forget that the current emperor is old, and the princes are restless. If this fire were to burn to them, wouldn't it be ......
He went to the town to copy books for so many days, and he didn't even have this awareness, thanks to the reminder of the orange.
He often breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice: "We not only have to dig, but also dig quietly." The fewer people who know, the better. ”
Chi Dazhu and Zhao He are not stupid, so they agree after thinking about it. Anyway, the extra effort is nothing more than some strength, not tight.
Huang slapped his thigh and said, "I don't have anything to do at home during the day, I'll just dig it." Guaranteed quietly no one knows. "She's an idle.
"How can I let you dig it, mother. If you have a master, you don't have to worry about it, and we are not in a hurry to use it anyway. Chen ate three bowls of hot and sour noodles in a row, which can be regarded as an appetite for her.
This matter was settled, and Songbai sent oranges and pear blossoms to the dock to set up a stall during the day, and then went to pick up the two of them at about the same time. There is no way, the work in the field is too busy, Chen is pregnant and can't work in the field, although she keeps insisting that she is fine, but no one wants her to suffer that sin.
Hot and sour noodles are very popular, two pennies for a big bowl, and those who don't have enough to eat go to Song Yao Biscuit to buy two Yao Biscuits. After eating, I was full of energy, and those who were used to eating braised meat and braised vegetables spent a penny to buy more than half a bowl, and the food was also comfortable and comfortable.
Songbai also asked the acquaintances on the dock to take care of the two, although he picked them up on the way back and forth, it was hard to ensure that they didn't see what they did.
Song Yao's mother-in-law is not a good thing, although she didn't teach her any lessons from the last incident, Songbai has always remembered it in her heart.
Huang is not idle at home, and the few cotton planted on her land are all picked up by Huang. Fortunately, two days later, Orange's uncle and brother-in-law, as well as the cousin of the uncle's family, came to help, and neither uncle came.
The brother-in-law has a pair of peach blossom eyes and looks not very old. In their family, they are also unrestrained, and Chen said that he was not stable, so he smiled and didn't mind.
But he fell in love with the little aunt in the same village, who was not picky and big. looks like a monster with quick hands and feet, but he can't do anything.
At the beginning, the Huang family did not approve of her uncle's marriage to her, but her uncle was good everywhere, but he had a bullish temper. After arguing with the Huang family for a long time, I couldn't agree.
After getting married for so long, she gave birth to a big girl, and the two of them lived a sloppy life. Huang didn't catch much and said that the little uncle, the little uncle deserves it well in person, and what should be done when she turns back.
She also lost her temper, so she simply couldn't see it and didn't bother. There was a lot of noise in a village, and the little aunt raised her leg and went back to her parents' house, making people laugh at it for nothing.
Mao is a diligent person, but his heart is too biased towards his mother's family. After the Mid-Autumn Festival some time ago, he said that he would go to the town to help his brother take care of the shop, and give 300 yuan a month.
When she didn't know it was to go to see the hammer! She was annoyed that Mao's mouth didn't tell the truth, and she was even more annoyed that she didn't care about her own kid. Huzi has slept with her since she was a child, she is smart and sensible, but she is not less angry with the hammer.
She also turns a blind eye on weekdays, knowing that Mao's mother's family is such a lone seedling. But when it comes to her own grandson, she is not ambiguous at all. Mao's can be ruthless and leave her young son, what else can she say?
told the Mao family in front of the whole family, and just heard that the girl was pregnant again, so she came over with her baggage. It's been more than ten years, and I only came to live at my daughter's house this year. This time, I took good care of my daughter, and the old man's spirit in the sky was also relieved.
Mao went back to the house and cried, and Huzi quietly played by himself in the yard. She looked at her little son through the window, and her heart was reluctant to go to town.
Without her mother-in-law's care, if she is no longer at home, won't Huzi be left alone?
My mother-in-law hasn't been so angry in these years, and it seems that she is really annoyed with herself. also blamed her for taking too much care of her mother's family, and always felt that she owed him a debt to be a sister.
At the moment, I made up my mind to take care of my grandfather at home, and this time I was going to come to the Chi family to help, but when Huzi reached the age of going to school, she didn't worry about handing him over to her younger siblings.
Uncle Chen saw that his wife was in good spirits, and he was also relieved. He was really afraid that the Huang family really had a pimple in his heart, and it would not be good to have an opinion on the Mao family. In the future, his mother will follow him, and she will have to live with Mao from time to time.
He saw that his sister was really short of people here, so he didn't mention taking the Huang family back. It's not too late to talk about it when it's close to the Layue Land, and then Chen's fetus will be almost raised.
Cousin Xiong Zi followed the character of his uncle, and he was very flamboyant at the age of fifteen or sixteen, how could he have the stability of a pine and cypress. When he saw Orange, he tugged at her braid and clamored for her to cook.
"I've heard Huzi say, the food you cook is only eaten by gods, I don't care, you have to make me a table of delicious food today."
The Huang family got up and beat him, this eldest grandson was not as obedient as Huzi at all. At the beginning, he was asked to go to the school to study, but the master didn't let him go the next day, thinking that he was too noisy.
Orange smiled and stopped Huang, "Grandma, shouldn't my cousin cook him a meal after a day's help?" What's more, there are also big uncles and little uncles. ”
Uncle Chen protected the bear, "My niece is right, mother, don't beat the bear." ”
The uncle and nephew hooked their shoulders and carried each other like a person. (Don't get me wrong, it's normal for uncles and nephews to look like~)
Huang muttered, "Orange has been busy all day. "When the child saw that it was not dawn, he got up and picked up, and walked back and forth for two hours to set up a stall, and he was very tired.
"Mother, you let the oranges be made, she said that she would rest at home for a day." Chan played a round. When the farm was busy, there were many fewer people working on the docks than usual, and Orange simply decided to take a day off and catch his breath before going.
Chi Dazhu went to kill the pig and the Li family cut the meat, but he cut a lot. When he met the old man Chi who also came to cut the meat, he saw that his second son had cut so much meat, and he not only muttered in his heart.
Could it be that what the old woman said is true, this second family really made money?
"Dad, you're going to cut the meat too? There are still guests at home, so I'll go first. Chi Dazhu said hello, he can't let go of what happened last time, and his own father turned the doctor away.
If it weren't for the fact that his own family was familiar with Lao Huang, the Chen family would really have a good one.
Old Man Chi nodded, "Are you done with the work in the field?" Your brother said he was going to your house to help. ”
"Almost, this brother-in-law and brother-in-law have come to help. I went home first. "He doesn't believe it, why would he have gone earlier if he helped? I still need the Yue family to come all the way to help!
Old man Chi watched his son leave in a hurry, not as enthusiastic as before. If this had been put aside, Chi Dazhu would definitely have paid him the money.
He sighed, and complained in his heart about the second child, he was his own father! Why is it like this, when the first Chi Pozi and Chi Daliang said that Chi Dazhu was not filial, he still didn't believe it.
Look at it now, he cuts so much meat and doesn't even say that he gives his father a share - they have a lot of family.
Orange saw that his father was cutting pork belly, and the portion was still sufficient, and knew that her father wanted to thank his uncles. By the way, I also told them that their lives are getting better and better now.
I'm afraid that not letting the Chen family live a good life has always been a knot in his heart.
Killing pig Li also sent some pig intestines and the like, knowing that she had to use it when she braised meat. Like a pig, although it is difficult to wash, it is delicious to fry with spicy seeds. The price is also relatively cheap, but I don't think no one will wash it.
The wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated, especially when it comes to eating.
Braised pork is easy to make, but it is delicious to eat. Cut the meat into cubes, wash it, stir-fry with oil, add rock sugar and soy sauce.
Each piece of meat is evenly colored, and the red sauce is appetizing to look at. She picked it up and took a bite, and the entrance was sweet and fluffy, the meat was fragrant and tender, and the fat meat was not too hard to chew, nor was the fat too greasy to swallow.
The bear smelled the smell and came in, and unceremoniously took a piece of meat to eat. His expression was satisfied, and he nodded straight after eating: "No wonder Huzi doesn't want to go back, my cousin is really amazing!" ”
After eating a few yuan, he began to think in his heart that he couldn't lose his cousin's good craftsmanship, and he should think of a way to make money.
He suddenly remembered something, patted his head and said, "By the way, why do I look so bad at that kid on the door?" That's what I thought about in the field just now, what's his name? ”
Orange was sliding fat intestines, and when he heard this, he stopped and asked, "You can't be talking about Brother Songbai, right?" ”
She said why did she see Songbai's gloomy face just now? These two ancestors are not looking at each other correctly.
