Chapter Twenty-Four: Martial Arts Has No Talent
Tang Shui'er listened to his chatter, and after understanding the situation roughly, she was more relieved.
If it is an ordinary farmer's cattle, it is easy to be implicated if there is not a single one, and there is the government as a backer, then there is no need to worry.
The three of them walked for about half an hour, stopped at the door of a bungalow, and Boss Lu stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Ding Xi!" Joy Ding! Old man Ding open the door! ”
"Who?"
"Me, Lu Kuan."
"Lu Kuan, can you turn off your broken gong voice, it's so noisy that Lao Tzu can't sleep well."
Then I heard the heel tapping, the latch was lowered, and someone opened the door.
Lu Kuan called him Old Man Ding, but the other party was not old, he was about fifty years old, with three deep forehead lines on his forehead, a serious expression, and he looked a little difficult to get along with.
Ding Xi rolled his eyes at Lu Kuan, his expression was a little disgusted, and when he saw that there were two people behind him, he didn't ask much.
"Come in and talk."
The courtyard was not large, only a room and a hall, which was connected to the kitchen, and looked smaller than the big house, and it was dark inside.
Ding Xi opened the window, and only then did some light shine in.
"Small place, please forgive me for not taking care of it." Ding Xi poured two glasses of water for Da Zhuang and Tang Shui'er.
Tang Shui'er thanked her first, didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "Master Ding, don't hide it, we're here to buy beef." ”
Ding Xi seemed to have guessed a long time ago, and only said: "There is beef, but now there is only one cow that can be killed, many people have come to me before, little lady, I won't tell you anything, if you just buy one or two catties, you better find someone else to go, I have a restaurant here alone is enough to share a cow." ”
"No, not a pound or two." Tang Shui'er put down the teacup and compared the numbers, "This is only the amount this time, I think I will come again soon." ”
Ding Xi only looked at Tang Shui'er and the people sitting next to her this time.
"I don't know what the little lady is doing when she buys so much meat?"
Tang Shui'er blinked, and said as a matter of course: "Of course it's made to eat!" ”
Otherwise, wouldn't it look good to buy it back?
Can you eat so much meat, Ding Xi thought to himself, but this is not within his jurisdiction, as long as the other party does not use his meat to do some improper business.
Lu Kuan plucked his ears on the side: "I said Old Man Ding, whether you sell it or not, it's not easy for people to come all the way, didn't you say yesterday that two restaurants refunded the order, just right, you sold it to Tang Xiaoniang." ”
Ding was overjoyed, he really poured eight lifetimes of mold and married Lu Kuan as a brother, did he dismantle his brother like this?
He still wants to sell for more money!
Ignoring Ding Xi's eye knife, Lu Kuan crossed Erlang's legs and looked at the sky, he was so short-tempered, what's wrong?
"Bang!"
Looking at the closed door, Tang Shui'er couldn't laugh or cry.
Fortunately, the beef was still bought.
"Boss Lu, thank you." Tang Shui'er's thank you is sincere, if it weren't for Lu Kuan, she wouldn't be so easy to buy beef.
Lu Kuan grinned and said: "Raise your hands, don't look at Ding Xi's death, he will definitely not be short of two pounds or two in business, you can rest assured, I will take it here in three days." Yo, it's not too early, I still have to go to the butcher stall, so don't leave it at that. ”
Lu Kuan ran back in a hurry, and Tang Shui'er sighed: "I didn't expect Ding Xi to look fierce, but it was quite easy to get along." ”
Da Zhuang nodded in agreement.
After solving the problem of beef, Tang Shuier felt that he was one step closer to the small goal he had set.
"Let's go, we need to go somewhere."
The two came to a shop that sold stoves, and Da Zhuang wondered, "You want to buy a stove?" Don't you have it at home? ”
Tang Shui'er didn't say whether to buy it or not, only said to take a look first.
However, after walking around, she didn't find a suitable one.
Da Zhuang saw that she was a little depressed, so he said: "In fact, this kind of small stove pine elm can also be made, many of the village are made of mud and stone paste, and they will not come here to buy, those are too small, only suitable for large families to add coal for heating in winter." ”
Tang Shui'er reacted, but she thought about it.
"Don't worry, the shelf is not ready yet, I will go to Songyu when I go back, you can think about what snacks to make first, and I will do the rest." Da Zhuang Road.
"Hmm." Tang Shui'er smiled and nodded.
She couldn't help but reflect that she had always been very uneasy when she came to this world, so she urgently needed to do something to prove herself, but she was too anxious.
After figuring it out, Tang Shui'er slackened her shoulders and said in a low voice: "Da Zhuang, I'm sorry for worrying you." ”
In a place where Tang Shui'er couldn't see, Da Zhuang couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth and said "um".
Back in his yard, Da Zhuang brought the meat he bought to the kitchen.
Tang Shui'er sharpened the knife, slowly removed the skin from the pig's trotters, and then cut off the lean meat wrapped under the skin of the white and tender pig, this piece of lean meat is the best in pork, it will not be hard after cooking, and the chopsticks are picked along the texture, loose and soft.
But Tang Shui'er didn't want to cook it, she took out the fine meat, skin, and bones and arranged them separately.
There are also three trotters.
The skin can be fried, and it can also be made into pork skin jelly, and the bones are used to make soup, as for the pig's trotters, of course, they are braised pig's trotters!
She called Da Zhuang in, handed him two clean short wooden sticks, pointed to a pile of fine meat on the board, and her eyes burned: "Hit it!" ”
What?
Da Zhuang looked dazed: "Meat? ”
Tang Shui'er nodded solemnly: "That's right, just beat the meat, just break it." ”
Da Zhuang didn't know why, but he still obediently did what Tang Shui'er said.
"Bang, bang, bang." Wooden sticks make rhythmic sounds on the meat piles.
Tang Shui'er stood aside and looked at Da Zhuang's almost effortless appearance, and suddenly laughed.
"What's wrong?" Da Zhuang stopped.
"No, I just thought of something." Tang Shui'er shook her head.
In her previous life, she had seen the process of making handmade beef balls in Chaoshan, and the minced beef used to make the meatballs was all beaten with a square hammer knife, and the just right force broke up the fibers inside the meat, and the complete muscle fibers were the key to the delicate and tight minced meat.
However, the process is laborious and time-consuming, and people are prone to injury, and it is common for people to have blisters and calluses on their hands, and swollen and painful arms.
Usually two catties of meat need a stick of incense to beat.
But in Da Zhuang's hands, the meat can be broken up in three or two clicks, just like playing.
I don't know if he used the relationship of internal force, Tang Shui'er pinched the minced meat and found that it was more delicate and even than the hand beating in his previous life.
Tang Shui'er couldn't help but sigh: "Kung Fu is a good thing." She asked with sparkling eyes, "Da Zhuang, do you think I can still learn martial arts?" ”
Da Zhuang looked from top to bottom and bottom up over and over again, and then told her cruelly: "You don't have this talent." ”
Tang Shui'er became a pufferfish.
Hmph, your ribs tonight are gone, gone!
