Chapter 57: The Three Wives (2)

Xu Qing means that Shi Mei and I have said that they will teach each other privately, why are you Ouyang Zhendong still doing here? It's just a light bulb, it's still a stupid light bulb. The key is that Ouyang Zhendong's skin is snow-white and snow-white, so that Xu Qing can't pretend not to see him.

"Xu Qing ......" Ouyang Zhendong glanced at Xu Qing and said, "I came today just to have a word with you......"

"Excuse me." Xu Qing arched his hand.

"The coming day is long, the contest between you and me will not stop......" Ouyang Zhendong turned to Huang Shimei and said, "Cousin, I'm leaving." ”

Ouyang Zhendong lightly lifted the reins of the horse, turned around and rode away. Xu Qing looked at the back, and a familiar smell once again flashed in his mind, and that taste also appeared when he first saw Ouyang Zhendong. This time it's clearer than the last one, and in the familiarity, it seems that there is still a hint of danger?

"Is this man sick?" Xu Qing muttered.

"Since he knew that you were Xu Dacai, he didn't think about tea and dinner all day long, and he was going to make a poem to compare with you, which is a pity......," Huang Shimei looked at Xu Qing's puzzled look and explained.

"You're not mad at me, aren't you?" Xu Qing asked.

"Humph......"

"Okay, tomorrow, I'll personally go to the door to propose."

Ancient women were very sensitive when they waited for the proposal, and you didn't see the poem: "Take the other side of the wall, in the hope of recovering the customs." I didn't see the resumption, and I was crying and rippling. Seeing the resumption of customs, laughing and talking. "Words?

This kind of thing, girls expect the sooner the better, so Xu Qing said that he would go tomorrow, not a lie.

"How can a man come to the door in person to propose marriage, are you ashamed?" Huang Shimei said with disgust.

After discussing the details of various etiquette, the two changed to the same horse and walked on the road again, thinking that they were smiling again. When he didn't walk for a long time, Xu Qingyi patted his head and asked Huang Shimei: "Shimei, does that Ouyang Zhendong have twin brothers?" ”

"No ......"

Why did Xu Qing ask that? He suddenly combined the back of the leader of the man in black that he saw when the dark river was attacked and the back of Ouyang Zhendong! At that time, the leader of the man in black glanced back at Xu Qing contemptuously, and his bright eyes were very similar to Ouyang Zhendong's eyes. Xu Qing was horrified in his heart, if Ouyang Zhendong had attacked from behind just now, maybe Xu Qing would have become a lonely ghost. But why didn't Ouyang Zhendong move Xu Qing? To say such a thing, Xu Qing couldn't figure it out for a long time.

Xu Qing buried these conjectures in his heart and did not tell Huang Shimei.

After beating a wild boar, Huang Shimei certainly wouldn't let Xu Qing go. returned to Xu Qing's house and asked him to rectify it quickly.

How many dishes can a wild boar make?

Even Xu Qing, who is a later generation, can't say clearly, because there are too many dishes that can be made. Even with the same part, you can casually make more than a dozen dishes that are not the same. During the Tang Dynasty, China did not eat pork, but in the major cuisines of China in later generations, pork dishes occupied most of the country.

A wild boar is 300 catties, and in addition to the ones you don't want, there are more than 200 catties. Xu Qing must not be able to play alone, Xu Qing commanded his subordinates to further clean up the pork belly and pig intestines, tear off the mucous membrane of the inner wall, and then use the bran to dry fry in a large pot to remove the flavor.

On the other side, a butcher was hired to remove the hair from the large pieces of pork that had been brought back, and then divide them again. The pig's head with two big teeth was cut off first, one big tooth was given to Xu Xiaoqing, and one big tooth was given to Xu Daqing, which is a thing to ward off evil spirits.

Then the four pig's feet were also cut, and then the pig's neck was also removed, and the pig's cavity was cut into several large pieces along the ribs. Xu Qing turned on the fire and scalded the gourd pig's blood. Put some fine salt, then put some ginger slices, lard, and soon the pig's blood will slowly change color and solidify. At this time, Xu Qing took out the pig's blood in the pot and divided it into small pieces like tofu cubes. Put it away and soak it in cold water, and then you can take it to process and cook.

Huang Shimei had the courage to shovel a piece and took a bite, and sure enough, there was no fishy smell at all, slippery, and surprisingly delicious.

"It's delicious."

"I want it too." Xiao Yue on the side also hurriedly came over to try it, and after eating, they all sighed that it was delicious.

It's a pity that Xu Qing's hands and feet were too slow at the beginning, and he was released too much by the hunters, a little less, and the pig's blood of this gourd was only a few pieces when it was cooked. Xu Qing chopped two pieces, pig's blood soup, and the rest, Xu Qing took out the winter bamboo shoots sent from Luonan, and stir-fried them with some sauerkraut.

I walked to the butcher who cut the pork, and watched them shave, and they actually took off the pork skin and threw it away. Xu Qing couldn't stand it anymore, the pig skin was a good dish, but he didn't know what happened to the wild boar skin. Xu Qing remembered that the wild boar was rolling in the mud all day long, and there must be a lot of parasites on his skin, so he dispelled the idea of picking it up again.

The meat is cut, and the internal organs and intestines are washed. Xu Qing looked at this pot of meat with satisfaction, and said that it was a pity. What a pity? It's a pity that it's not winter now, otherwise the more than 100 catties of meat will be cured, and the taste will definitely be better. But now, if the pork is left for a long time, it will give birth to maggots and become bacon.

However, two hundred catties of meat, it is impossible for everyone to eat it in one day, although it is winter, but it can't be put for a few days. So the meat still has to be smoked.

Xu Qing looked at the big sun outside, and then looked at the intestines on the ground, and suddenly had an inspiration in his heart, why don't you fill sausages? Sausages are no more relaxed than bacon, and the conditions for development are slightly looser. It is dried in the sun, and it can be roasted at night with a high fire, and the speed is also fast.

So Xu Qing took 20 catties of lean meat and foot fat from the front sandwich and back legs, cut them into minced pieces, sprinkled with salt, stirred evenly and marinated for half an hour. Add some maltose, soybean paste, etc., and when the meat is marinated, pour the meat into the casing.

"Remember to poke the needle on the intestine to release the qi inside, squeeze it with your hands, and tie it firmly with a thread at intervals." Xun Xue'er walked over and reminded.

Xu Qing glanced at Xun Xue'er in surprise and asked, "Xue'er, do you fill sausages?" ”

"Xu Lang, there are many sausages in Luonan, but I haven't seen them in Cangzhou." Xun Xue'er smiled.

In fact, Xu Qing didn't know that sausages were stuffed as early as the Northern and Southern Dynasties, but pork was cheap meat, and pig intestines were even cheaper, so sausages were not widely spread.

"Okay, now just hang these sausages on the wall to bask in the sun, take them out in the morning when there is sun, and bake them over an open flame at night, it should be four or five days a day, you can put them at home to dry and ventilate, you don't have to take them out to dry again, at most a month, you can eat."

For dinner, everyone gathered. Xu Qing and the three daughters, as well as Xun Yeyu, Zhang Linlin, Niu Eating Grass and others at the same table. The Xu family also has a table, hey, the next person eats the master's fried dishes, that is rare, and the master turned out to be the master of the assassination, such an honor, I am afraid that if you push it forward for five hundred years, and after five hundred years, there will be no more. There's no way, there is too much pork, if you don't eat it all at once, it will rot in a few days, and besides, it's better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone.

Wild boar meat is already delicious, but it was rectified by Xu Qingyi and became varied, dazzling, and it was impossible to eat and taste.

Braised pork, stir-fried pork, braised lion's head, stewed pig's feet with soybeans, stewed pork ribs with radish, stir-fried pork liver, stir-fried ear shreds, roasted pig's tail, stewed pig's head, stir-fried pig's blood......

A whole pig feast, everyone present walked with their stomachs upright, and even said that in three days, they would not have to eat. The group of subordinates was even more excited. He refused to wipe the oil off his mouth, and left it for several days, and boasted that he had eaten a fairy banquet when he met people. Unbelief? Look at the shine on my lips......

After eating, the people cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks. Xu Qing called everyone to the front yard, Xun Xue'er came out with Niu Eating Grass and others, I don't know what Xu Qing was going to do.

Xu Qing hugged Xu Xiaoqing first and said a few words to Xun Xue'er, only to see Xun Xue'er nodding and giving Xu Qing an encouraging look.

Immediately, Xu Qing will bring Huang Shimei and let her stand in front of everyone. Xiao Yue saw it, understood what Xu Qing was going to do, was slightly disappointed, and turned around to leave. As soon as she took a step, a pair of big hands grabbed her shoulders, and then took her hand firmly, and also led her to Huang Shimei's side.

Seeing Xu Qing with a beauty in his hand, everyone suddenly realized that Xu Qing was going to hold an "enlarged meeting" of the wife committee.

Xu Qing stood in the center, groaned slightly, and said to everyone:

"I'm Xu Qing, I'm lucky......."

"I married Xue'er the year before last, and I thought that all my luck in this life would be exhausted, but the old moon was affectionate, and I sent Xiaoyue and Shimei to my side." Xu Qing looked at the third daughter, and continued:

"Thanks to my wife's generosity, I don't care about my fancy intestines. From tomorrow, Xiaoyue and Shimei will officially marry into my Xu family. From then on, the three of them did not divide their wives and concubines, and I regarded them equally. ”

Then, Xu Qing preached the idea that there is no difference between wives and concubines. Everyone was overjoyed, and they congratulated each other for a long time. Only the cow eats grass, and when he shows a slightly envious expression, Xiao Ru is pinching hard behind his back.

Generally speaking, only the wife has the "right to socialize", and only the wife will be introduced by her husband to relatives and friends, and now Xu Qing introduced Huang Shimei Xiaoyue to everyone, which is to announce to everyone that these two women, where they say and do, are the face of my Xu family. Someone bullied them, just to refute my Xu Qing's face. The people present will talk to others again, so as to convey Xu Qing's thoughts.

Then there is the holding of the wedding, Nacai (the man asks the matchmaker to propose to the woman), asking the name (the woman agrees to discuss the marriage after the man asks the matchmaker to ask the woman's name, birthday, etc.), Bu Yu Zu Temple to determine the bad luck, Naji (the marriage with the woman after the auspicious omen), Na Zheng (the man sends the dowry gift to the woman's home), the invitation period (the man brings the gift to the woman's house to agree on the marriage date), and the red tape (the man marries the woman to the house on the day of the wedding).

Xu Qing did these things once when he married Xun Xue'er, and he was familiar with the road. By the time the real cave house is realized, it will take more than a month.

The next day, Xu Qingna went home after picking and set up a pot to fatten the remaining wild boar. Xu Qing used a relatively healthy oil refining method of boiling fatty meat, and looking at the fat that was constantly shaking on the water, Xu Qingmao suddenly opened.
