Chapter 018: The aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys
It was pitch black outside, and Song Xiaoqiao dragged his fist and moved forward in the dark with the little starlight above his head.
A narrow path is extremely rugged, with deep ravines on both sides, and if you are not careful, you may be buried in this wilderness.
But despite this, Song Xiaoqiao still didn't stop his steps.
"Little Joe, you're finally here."
Jiang Tao was very worried, and after arranging his mother to sleep, he kept pacing back and forth at the back door until he saw Song Xiaoqiao's figure, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he still didn't understand what Song Xiaoqiao was doing when he came to his house in the middle of the night.
"Well, did my aunt sleep?"
Although Jiang Tao's family is also a family with four walls, fortunately, a large courtyard was built for their mother and son before his uncle died, and this place was enough for her to toss.
"Don't worry, my mother goes to bed very early every day, and she won't come at this time."
The backyard where they are now is in a dilapidated state because of disrepair, giving people the feeling that the wind can blow it down.
"That's good, but I still need your help."
Coming to Jiang Tao's house only completed one of them, and there were still two things she needed to do, and both of these things were inseparable from Jiang Tao's help.
"If you have something, you can say it, as long as I, Jiang Tao, can do it, I can't give up the definition."
It's night, and there's nothing he needs to do, so as long as Song Xiaoqiao speaks, he will definitely have no hesitation.
It's just that he was a little curious about what Song Xiaoqiao wanted him to do.
"You bring a basket and a shovel, we need to find some spices nearby, right...... You have salt in your house, right? ”
Although Jiang Tao's family is also poor, their life is definitely better than that of the three of them, after all, the three of them have a big family with such a heart like a snake and scorpion.
"This is natural, but Xiao Qiao, what are the condiments you are talking about?"
At this moment, Jiang Tao's mind was in a mess, there were weeds and trees all around, where was there any condiment.
"You'll know this in a moment, without further ado, let's go find it quickly."
The muddy path back and forth had already wasted a lot of her time, and if she didn't hurry up now, she might really not be able to catch up with tomorrow's morning meeting.
Thinking of this, Song Xiaoqiao didn't hesitate, and without saying a word, he took a step on his feet, seeing this, Jiang Tao hurriedly picked up the back basket and shovel, and followed behind Song Xiaoqiao.
He has liked Song Xiaoqiao for a long time, and he thinks that Song Xiaoqiao is a simple-minded girl, not a fool in everyone's mouth, but the current Song Xiaoqiao is different from the past.
In the past, her clear and visible eyes seemed to have turned into a bottomless cold pool, which made people unable to guess her thoughts, but he liked Song Xiaoqiao like this even more.
"This, this...... And I need this. ”
Song Xiaoqiao pointed to the inconspicuous-looking weeds on the ground, and secretly rejoiced in her heart: although she is half a can of water for medical poison, fortunately she likes to study food, and she will find some weeds and other things to experiment if she has nothing to do.
Jiang Tao is an honest fisherman, so he will do whatever Song Xiaoqiao says, never say a word, until Song Xiaoqiao asked him to pull off this piece of bark, he couldn't help but open his mouth.
"Little Joe, what's the use of this bark?"
The bark looked dry, it couldn't be used to make soup, and it smelled bad, what did she want to do with that?
"You'll know in a moment, let's go back."
The things they had to find had been almost gathered, and all they had to do now was to hurry back and cook the wild boar meat together with the condiments they had found, a process that would take about two hours.
"Oh."
Jiang Tao originally wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, and it wasn't until he went back to the backyard and saw Song Xiaoqiao's movements that he understood.
Not long after the wild boar was put into the pot, he smelled the fragrance, it seemed that the weeds and bark they had just made were all condiments in Song Xiaoqiao's mouth.
But it's also strange to say, the thing they just found obviously doesn't have any taste, especially the bark, which still has a bad smell, why when it is put together with pork, it produces such a strong fragrance.
Time passed like this, and finally got two hours, Song Xiaoqiao couldn't wait to open the lid of the pot, but the fragrance that was already strong just now instantly fell apart at this moment, filling the entire dilapidated kitchen.
"Brother Tao, you taste it first, how does it taste."
Although the condiments are not complete, I have found most of them, so I guess the taste will not be too bad.
"What's the matter, Brother Tao, is it hard to eat?"
Song Xiaoqiao got a small piece of wild boar meat and stuffed it into Jiang Tao's mouth, waiting for Jiang Tao's next words, but to her surprise, Jiang Tao was stunned.
It's over, it's not because of a few condiments, this pork will be scrapped, but there is no reason, even if it is not delicious, it will not be as good as Jiang Tao's expression on the wooden stake.
With a full of questions, Song Xiaoqiao also got a piece into his mouth: "That's right, although this taste is not as good as before, it is not unpleasant?" ”
Song Xiaoqiao was chewing the soft wild boar meat while talking to himself, and was just about to say something more, when Jiang Tao suddenly came back to his senses.
"Xiao Qiao, how did you do it, this pork is so delicious, I've never eaten it before."
Jiang Tao was stunned just now not because this pork was unpalatable, but because he had never eaten such a special pork, fat but not greasy, and his lips and teeth were fragrant.
"You're scared me to death, it's good to be delicious, it's not too early now, we have to dare to go to today's morning market, and after the incident, I will share some of your benefits."
Although they only have half a piece of pork now, according to her plan, this half piece of pork can be sold for two pigs, and half of it will be given to Li Dou and others at the time, and half of it will be shared equally with Jiang Tao.
"Okay."
Jiang Tao was very excited, put the pork into the wooden barrel prepared in advance, and then carried it on his back, and Song Xiaoqiao was not idle, in order to succeed in one fell swoop today, she also deliberately took a spare pot next to her when she left.
They will definitely not be so smooth when they sell it like this, but if they put a small part of the pork in a pot and cook it on the street, as long as the nose is okay, they can smell the fragrance.
This is what the ancients said, the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys.
Hurry up, they finally felt that the morning market was on top, but it had reached the peak era of the morning market, and what made Song Xiaoqiao frown was that she and Jiang Tao couldn't find any place to sell it.
"Little Joe, what should I do now?"
There is a time limit for this morning set, if this hour passes, the people on the morning set will disperse, Song Xiaoqiao is trying to sell out these wild boar, but it is very difficult.
"Brother Tao, don't worry, I'm thinking of a way?"
Song Xiaoqiao quickly glanced around, his head was running at high speed, and suddenly he had an idea, and there was a place to support it.
