Chapter 70: The Black Moon of the Pig

Aoki hurriedly returned with a large piece of pork liver before lunch, with a strip of pork belly and a jar of pig's blood. explained a few words to Chrysanthemum, saying that her mother came back early, but she was also pulled by Aunt Zhang's house, telling her not to wait, and to eat it early after cooking, and he left again.

Chrysanthemum thought to herself, it's okay, let's cook some vegetables today and treat myself.

So I happily roasted a braised pork, and didn't put anything, just put some ginger and color it with some soy sauce. Stir-fried in the pot, the fragrance is hooking, and the room is full of it. When it was almost ready, she cut another handful of green garlic sprouts and put them in. This is the garlic roast meat that Laicai wanted to eat but didn't eat.

In the end, the raw materials are different, but it's just braised pork, and the taste is so fragrant. The little black dog spun around in front of her heels, and sometimes she turned around to get something, and accidentally kicked it over the heels. was so angry that Chrysanthemum even scolded it for not being productive.

When it was ready, she used a large bowl to hold the meat and put it on the lid of the cauldron, using the heat under the lid to prevent it from getting cold.

Then she cut the pork liver thinly, waited for the water in the pot to boil, threw a few slices of ginger down, and then poured the pork liver into it and stirred it up with chopsticks. When the pork liver turns from dark red to pink in boiling water, throw the washed spinach into it, boil it twice, sprinkle some chopped green onions and salt, and serve.

Smelling the long-lost aroma, she sniffed and squinted her eyes; That's the smell!

In her previous life, after she entered the city, she wanted to eat pork liver and bought it several times. But whether she soaked the wine in water, fried with ginger vinegar, or stir-fried with sauce, let her do her best, and the pork liver burned out always had a fishy smell.

But she clearly remembers that the pork liver soup she ate when she was a child was very fragrant, could it be that she was a time shifter?

Now I finally smell it again. Where to add those messy things, this pork liver boiled in the water, it was tender, pink and fragrant, the pink pork liver lined with green spinach and green onions was full of appearance, and the taste was naturally good.

She didn't cook either, so she soaked a bowl of pork liver soup in a pot, took two pieces of braised pork, and sat on a small bench to eat beautifully.

The little black dog was gone, looking at her next to her legs, humming incessantly, looking very pitiful!

Chrysanthemum couldn't help it, and there was no food to eat it, so she had to get some pots and put them in her dog bowl, and poured some pork liver soup into it. I wanted to pick up a piece of braised pork to take it, but I thought about it again, but I only had a good life for a few days, and if I fed the braised pork to the dog, I would be thundered by the sky.

Forget it, just eat it and feed it more at night.

Aren't other people's dogs still eating! She kept feeding it leftovers and porridge, much more civilized than those dogs; Often, I also soaked it in the soup from the pig's water and ate it. Isn't this dog's life more nourishing than other dogs? It should no longer have the luxury of eating braised pork. You must know that even if it is yourself, you have been here for a few months, counting today, this braised pork has only eaten for the second time.

To be a dog is to be content!

The little black dog was eating pork liver soup and soaking in the pot, but he didn't feel like the chrysanthemum bowl smelled fragrant, and he really came over to stare at her bowl again. was reprimanded by her, turned around with his tail between his legs and ran to eat his own dog food.

Seeing its gray appearance, the chrysanthemum was also a little funny and a little pitiful. However, she was afraid that if she had eaten it and raised it, it would be difficult to feed it in the future.

This little black dog has a good spirit.

In her last life, she also had a dog at home when she was a child. Every time she gets out of school, the dog can welcome the old man, and in the morning, he will also send the old away; It's understandable to scold it.

Among the domestic animals, except for the dogs, which have spirituality, the rest are cows, chickens and pigs.

If you let a well-stocked cow "turn left, turn right", and pull the rope on the cow's nose by the way, it will execute immediately, and the steering wheel will sometimes fail if it is more flexible than the steering wheel of a car. He told him to bow his head, and the ox lowered his head, and let the cowherd hold its two horns and climb on the ox's back. If the cow only cares about grazing and doesn't have time to bow his head, the cow baby will be scolded, and he will throw a wicker to the cow. Usually at this time, the cow does not dare to eat it anymore, although it may not be able to understand what the master says, but it also knows that he is angry, so obediently bows its head and waits for him to go up.

Once, when an old cow was old, the village wanted to kill it.

The cow was brought over, and when he saw that there were many people around, both knives and basins, the battle that opened made it feel that the end had come, and big tears rolled down from the big bull's eyes, which made the onlookers feel sad. However, people in the countryside also want to live, and they will never give up the temptation of hundreds of catties of beef for the sake of the feelings of a cow!

That time, she looked at the crying old cow and cried so sadly! However, she still ate braised beef in the evening.

Therefore, the people in the countryside are very strange, and they do not favor those old turtles, yellow eels, frogs, etc., and there are few people who eat them; However, for the cows and dogs that have accompanied them through the years, they can do it.

Chrysanthemums have no taboos and dare to eat anything, but in her previous life, she resolutely refused to eat domestic dogs. It is really a family with its owner, and the relationship is extraordinary, and some dogs are psychic and can understand a lot of people's words. But there are people who kill people in the sky, stealing dogs everywhere - throwing some food, taking a rope and dragging them and running away, silently. She lost several dogs in her family, and she was in tears every time.

In the next few days, the atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger. There were more people killing pigs in the village, and the miserable howls of pigs sounded from time to time, and they spread far away to Xiaoqingshan; The smoke that rose from the stove kept drifting away with the cold wind, and it was no longer the time to eat; The laughter of the little babies sounded a lot, highlighting the busyness and joy of the wax moon.

This month is a "black wax moon" for the pigs, and those who have grown enough fat have completed their short lives and contributed to the happy life of the farmers.

Chrysanthemum carried a bucket of dishwashing water, acorns, and rice bran to the pig pen, and the big black pig heard the movement and immediately hummed over. The big ears covered its eyes, so it tried to raise its head, and saw the chrysanthemum from under the ear, and arched its mouth to the fence gate expectantly to come out by itself, or the chrysanthemum poured food into it.

Seeing that it was fat and strong, Chrysanthemum sighed and thought to herself, she couldn't eat it for a few days. I hope that it will be reincarnated as a human in the next life, but it can contribute a few taels of silver to her family.

After feeding the pigs, Chrysanthemum walked slowly with the pig food bucket, and the little black dog ran happily in front. ran to the kitchen door, stood up again, looked at Chrysanthemum with those sparkling dog eyes, and waited for her to follow. When he saw that Chrysanthemum couldn't stand, he hurriedly turned his head over and walked around at her feet.

Chrysanthemum looked outside the courtyard, the bleak scene of winter seemed to have little impact on people, listening to the sound of pigs barking, dog barking, and the laughter of the babies from the distant village, mixed with one or two firecrackers, and the bursts of smoke drifting, all of which made people feel relaxed and cheerful, and looked forward to the New Year.

The generosity of the Zheng family really won the sincere gratitude of the villagers, so in the days of killing pigs, they enthusiastically repaid Liaolai.

Zheng Changhe's father and son are always dragged by the villagers to drink pig-killing soup. They also went to like Zhao San's family and Zhang Huai's house; There are also those who say that there is something to go. However, whether you go or not, those people who kill the pigs will send some meat. The Chrysanthemum family hasn't killed the pig yet, but has saved more than a dozen catties of meat. It can be seen that this is really an unspeakable science.

With meat, Chrysanthemum thought about making some tamales.

So it was fried with star anise mixed with white rice until it was browned before it was served. In the evening, when Aoki came to his house, he ground the fried yellow-brown rice into powder along with the star anise, and put it in a large jar.

Aoki saw that his sister was going to do a new trick again, so he asked; "What is this doing? It smells so good. He thought that if this powder was soaked in boiling water, it should not be eaten with star anise.

Chrysanthemum held the jar and asked her brother to pour the rice noodles into it, smiling; "Mixed with the meat tung steamer and steamed out, it should be very delicious."

Aoki laughed; "Needless to say? The meat is delicious. ”

Chrysanthemum glanced at him and said; "Then wait for me to make a bunch, you can taste it, and see which meat is better than usual."

"Oh, then I'll wait tomorrow." Aoki smiled, lifted the upper half of the stone mill again, used a bamboo brush to gather the rice noodles in the middle into a pile, and then swept them into the jar of rice noodles.

The weather has gotten colder in recent days, and he wanted to take chrysanthemums to the mountains to play, but he still didn't make it.

Chrysanthemum asked; "Brother, when is your school day off?"

Aoki bowed his head and said busily; "It will be the twentieth mile of the lunar month, and the door will open on the twentieth day of the first month of next year."

When Chrysanthemum heard this, she thought, it's okay, there will always be a few days to be free. Her brother is at home, and she has to save a lot.

At noon the next day, the chrysanthemum first marinates the pork belly cut into small pieces with soy sauce and salt for an hour, then mixes with rice noodles, stirs evenly, spreads a layer of large leaves of yellow cabbage in the steamer, pours the meat and rice noodles on it, covers it, and steam it over a fire.

Yang came back, smelled the unusual fragrance, smiled and went into the kitchen, and asked; "Chrysanthemum, what are you doing?"

Chrysanthemum saw that her mother was back, and said happily; "I'm steaming meat. Mother, you'll taste it later. ”

Yang heard Chrysanthemum say about avoiding steamed pork last night, and now he saw that Chrysanthemum really did it, so he smiled; "You don't have to taste it, you know it's delicious just by smelling it. In the future, my mother will come to cook from Ming'er, and my mother will not go out to sell vegetables - in Layue, almost everyone will kill pigs, and those who don't kill pigs will weigh two catties of meat, and there are fewer people who buy vegetables. ”

Chrysanthemum was even happier when she heard this, and pulled Yang's arm and said; "I have long wanted to say this to my mother, but I am afraid that my mother will not be reluctant. This selling pigs into the water can also make some money, but it is really trivial, and our family is entangled in it. If you are in the past, you are short of money and can't do this business to save the emergency; Now that the family has land, and the pigs have to raise a few more, I really don't have the energy to do this business. Also, we have told people how to wash pigs in the water, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to buy pigs in the water. ”
