Chapter 57: Sweet and sour pork
"Didn't you say do less today? How can it be so busy? ”
"The second grandmother is reluctant, there are more people buying tofu today than usual! So I added it today. "Alas, people are too greedy for money, so they are inevitably short-sighted. What a great marketing opportunity, and life was ruined.
"I tasted the tofu of that house today, and he actually knows a little marinade, who can usually touch the marinade you mix?"
Mama was stunned when she heard it, the problem was herself?
"I usually mix the marinade, but it is locked in a small room, and no one can go in."
"What about the little brine? Did anyone see it? ”
"Only the second grandmother sometimes comes, and when she clicks, she doesn't let people see it."
"Go back and check, the point is who has been in the hut! They know how to use marinade, but they don't know how much to order, and besides, the marinade is not right. I think it's a copy after seeing it. ”
In this way, she taught her grandmother another trick.
I went back to check, sure enough, it was the helper who grinded the beans, and he didn't dare to take the marinade while no one was sneaking in, but he just poured a little bit and tasted it, and went back to tell his relatives that the tofu was made, but he didn't expect it to be delicious.
After this incident, Qing Niang handed over the recipe for the marinade to the second aunt, and she went to prepare some marinade, and Mama began to make dried tofu. I plan to wait for the second aunt to learn, and let the grandmother come back, now that there are few people in the family, there are still a few vinegar tanks to take care of.
That night, she sat on the edge of the martial arts training ground, watching Wen Jin and them walk the plum blossom pile, this Master Jiang is still very powerful, although he broke an arm, but he walked like flying on the pile, and his movement and jumping were no worse than those of a sound person.
"Sister, Master began to teach me to breathe, saying that it is the introduction of internal strength," Wen Jin whispered to her sister during the break,
"What about Xiaozhu, did they start practicing?"
"No, Master said that their internal breath is not enough, and they can't practice internal strength yet."
This is the credit of Qiong Jelly, when chatting with Shi Yan and Shi Bi, listening to them talk about the past, Wen Jin is obviously not as smart as Wen Zhu, but so what? With his sister, his life will definitely not be ordinary.
The elixir is too rebellious, except for repaying the favor, or very important relatives, she will not take it out casually. It's not that she's stingy, for Xiaozhu and them, meeting her has changed her life, and the rest depends on her own efforts, she didn't think about being a saint and changing this society.
Not long after, Liu Song left for the capital, Qing Niang brought him a thousand taels of silver tickets, after Mama knew, nervous to death, Liu Song was very sophisticated, and finally hid the silver tickets everywhere, even in the hairpin with curled hair, also put two hundred taels!
This hairpin is hollow and so cleverly carved that it is impossible to see at all.
"When you arrive in the capital, go buy an inconspicuous small courtyard first, don't be afraid of bias, you are not suitable to live in a large courtyard now." If you quietly return to Beijing, you must have a place to stay.
Liu Song brought a lot of soy sauce and wine this time, and they didn't dare to be careless, and spent money to hire a dart bureau to escort them.
Before leaving, Si Xiu came running with a person,
"His name is Zhang Qing, and he also grew up in the capital, let him be Liu Song's deputy. Also, I have a courtyard in the capital, which was left to me by my mother, and only a few servants take care of it, and you can settle down there when you go, don't say that I only take money and don't contribute! ”
In this case, of course she was happy, the yard was not bought for the time being, and she was thinking, waiting for more money to buy a big one!
"You still have so much wine hidden, stingy bala, then you won't give it to me!"
"How old are you, what kind of wine are you drinking? That wine is sold for money! Si Xiu looked at her speechless, and was despised by a little girl, saying that she was small, wasn't she smaller?
The things are done, and the convoy is gone, why hasn't this guy quit? After emptying the wine vat today, she found that the vinegar had also become and was trying to make a sweet and sour pork to eat.
Li Da, who was sent to buy meat, ran back out of breath, and now there is only an ox cart at home. But Li Da felt sorry for those cows, so he ran away to the butcher's house, although he was only in the next village, he had to walk for a while.
Seeing that big piece of meat, Si Xiu didn't leave, and chatted with Qing Niang, they all ate and lived together in the barracks, they hadn't smelled meat for a long time, and they planned to go back after a meal.
This intention was discovered by Qing Niang, in order to send it away as soon as possible, she didn't care much about rubbing rice, she didn't lack money to buy meat, but this person was also a partner.
Leaving the guests behind, she rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen.
"Girl, do you really do this? In case it goes bad, it's a pity that so much meat is lost! ”
Mrs. Li is burning the fire, she has cut the meat into small strips, and Qing Niang marinates it with condiments, which is the key to whether the sweet and sour meat is delicious or not! After marinating, go to the oil pan, but unfortunately, there is no vegetable oil now, and the lard is a little greasy to fry.
"If you are not used to sweet and sour sauce for a while, you can eat this fried meat directly."
Although she likes sweet and sour flavor very much, it's normal for others not to get used to it, anyway, I'll make some juice and dip it to eat, and the fried meat can also be steamed with spices to make small crispy meat, and it's not easy to spoil if you can't eat it.
She thought very well at this time, but she didn't estimate enough, with the guest outside, how could there be meat that couldn't be eaten! They called Li Da and went to the field to inspect their wheat.
"You're saying you can cut it in five days?"
Looking at the heavy ears of wheat, his heart blossomed with joy. Not only can this wheat survive the winter, but it also grows so well! It's a pity that the little girl is a stingy person, if she gave him wheat seeds last year, the harvest would not be the only one. He doesn't want to think about it, why should people?
"You don't have to hire a day laborer anymore, I'll send someone to help you in five days!" Li Da really wanted to say that he was very wealthy, and the whole village was rushing to move forward.
But in the face of Si Xiu, he didn't dare to speak, he was not very old, and the pressure was very heavy. Ordinary people don't dare to move forward, but why aren't their own young ladies afraid? casually, people are still smiling and relatively temperless?
Li Da's admiration for his own young lady is another level.
On the day of the opening of the sickle, not only did five people come to work, but Si Xiu also rode a big horse and took Xuanyi to Sujia Village, and as soon as he entered the door, he said to Qing Niang:
"That sweet and sour meat will be made more later, and it was not enough to plug the teeth last time!"
Qing Niang saw that he had two empty hands, and directly gave a roll of his eyes, dare to say that he ate in vain? Last time, most of the meat went into this guy's mouth, and the sweet and sour sauce was finally rounded.
"What are you doing with that sour thing? It doesn't seem to taste like a green plum, so why is it so fragrant? The more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, the little girl must have made something good again, and the fragrance was too appetizing for him.
Qing Niang didn't plan to make meat today! Li Da said, you have to be vegetarian for heavy work, so uncle, you can stay where it is cool.
She also went to the field today with her hat, and she still had no bottom in her heart about the yield of winter wheat, and wanted to watch them threshing as soon as possible.
