Chapter 52: Lo Mei (2)
Hearing her daughter say this, Li Sanmei knew that this pig's large intestine was really edible, and she didn't say anything, and said, "What do you do at noon?" ”
Qiao Xiaowan looked at the fish and meat she bought, and said, "Mother, I'll make a fish, make a winter melon roasted bone broth, fry winter melon, and just make a few green vegetables." ”
Li Sanmei nodded and began to help her daughter make lunch.
There is fish and meat, and it is used to entertain guests in the countryside, which is already a luxury meal.
Not to mention the ancient times when the conditions were so poor, the people who could eat meat once a month were considered to be solid families in the village.
In the ancient countryside, if the villagers came to help with things, although they said that they gave money, but if you entertained the poor, they were criticized, and the next time they wanted to spend money to ask someone to do things, few people were willing to come to the door.
Those who were not well received still said behind their backs that this person was stingy, unkind or something...... Therefore, hiring someone to eat must be generous, and it is also to leave a good impression on the villagers.
In the hearts of ancient rural people, it represents a person's goodness, in addition to being hospitable and helping each other, that is, being willing to give people delicious food, which is a good behavior in the eyes of others.
So why do people say that people in modern Huaxia love face, in fact, this is an inertia that has been integrated into our culture and living customs for thousands of years, and it is almost a habit in the blood.
Qiao Xiaowan's meals are within a reasonable range and so on.
Because he bought two catties of pork belly, Qiao Xiaowan planned to boil it directly into white meat, and then eat it with seasonings.
There is no soy sauce here, and braised pork cannot be made, and the same is true for boiling.
In his previous life, Qiao Xiaowan thought that inviting someone to eat meat would be a big plate, but in fact, it was all wrong.
In the memory of the original owner, even if the farmer held a wedding banquet, the meat on the plate was all piece by piece, and there were eight people at the table of eight immortals, and each person had a piece of meat, of course, the amount of meat was a little larger than that of ordinary meat pieces.
Therefore, in ancient times, when setting up a wine banquet, some relatives and friends liked to do the most to help in the kitchen, so that the meat could be eaten not in one piece, but in many pieces.
Some poor people eat wine and get a piece of meat, but the poor people will not eat it on the spot, and they will take this piece of meat home, and the piece of meat put together by a few members of the family can be eaten for many days.
It is common for poor people to starve to death, and it is a luxury to eat enough, not to mention eating meat, and those who can eat meat once a month are rich and noble.
This is the real life of the countryside in ancient times.
Thinking of this, socialism is really good!
Meat is already a common food, and it has become a rare and precious item to eat once a year like in ancient times.
Qiao Xiaowan has already started to cook the pork belly, two large pieces of pork belly are put in the pot to cook, here Qiao Xiaowan began to prepare to go to other dishes, Li Sanmei is helping to wash and chop vegetables, and the meal to be made at noon will be ready soon.
About half an hour later, six pieces of white meat were filled on a plate, stewed pork ribs with winter melon, fish with soy milk, stewed pumpkin, stir-fried Chinese cabbage, and stir-fried shredded lettuce.
Six dishes are ready, and it's also lunch time.
Li Sanmei hurriedly beckoned Brother Wang and Brother Zhu to go down to the roof tile to eat, Qiao Laide was in a good mood and slept well last night, and the symptoms of dizziness were actually reduced today, and he was able to get up and go out of the house.
Qiao Laide watched Li Sanmei and Qiao Xiaowan busy, especially her daughter's smart appearance, the more she watched, the more happy she became.
I didn't know it stupid yesterday, but looking at such a lively daughter, I couldn't stop the joy in my heart.
