Chapter 104: The Pig Goes into the Water

Although Cheng Dagui really wants Cheng Xi and Xu Saburo to go back and live with them, in the end, Cheng Xi is already a married daughter, and he and Xu Saburo have become a family, it still depends on Xu Sanlang's intentions.

After renting the yard near the vegetable market, Wu's Yu and Ma's came over to help clean up, and then the two moved over with a hundred years old.

The butcher on the opposite side was surnamed Liu, and Cheng Xi thought that his sons were older than him, so he called Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu.

Xu is because he was originally in business, and Cheng Xi didn't dislike them, and became neighbors with them, the Liu family was very enthusiastic about them, and even gave some small snacks to the centenarian from time to time.

Cheng Xi still has to discuss the matter of opening a snack stall with the rest of the Cheng family, after all, the capital still depends on everyone, and the little silver in her and Xu Sanlang's hands is only enough to settle their new residence.

Recently, the business of the baked cake stall is getting better and better, and Mrs. Cheng is also very happy, so when Cheng Xi mentioned that everyone should invest in opening a food stall, the old lady did not object again, and only asked not to invest too much and open a small stall to try.

Cheng Xi still had six taels of silver from Xu Wenyu in his hand, and discussed it with the Cheng family, the snack stall was run by her and Xu Sanlang, and after deducting the expenses, the profits from the operation were distributed according to the proportion of investment.

After listening to Cheng Xi's plan, Cheng Dagui and Yu were willing to pay the silver, originally planning to pay ten taels each, but the old lady was not very relieved, feeling that it was a bit much, and finally decided that one person would pay five taels first, and then expand the scale after the business was good.

Ma Shi did not invest, she had her own plans in her heart, this baked cake stall business is good, she thought that when Cheng Xi opened a snack stall, if the business is good, Wu will definitely have to help, and she can take over the baked cake stall alone in the future, although she has worked harder, fortunately, the two girls are getting older, and they can help, but they can earn a lot more than when they were farming in the village.

Fifteen taels of silver, Cheng Xi estimated that he could almost buy a small stall.

With the start-up capital, it is time to start looking for land, which is a business, and the location is also very important, especially the convenient food stall they opened, the location can be said to be the most important.

So in the next few days, Cheng Xi and Xu Sanlang went around the county looking for land, but they didn't find a good position for a few days, either someone already occupied it, or others didn't let it go.

The two of them went out for another day, and then went to Cheng's house to pick up the centenarian and came back, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Aunt Liu carrying a bunch of smelly pigs into the water and walking out.

When Aunt Liu saw Cheng Xi and them coming back, she hurriedly stayed away from them, and said embarrassedly, "Are you back?" These things stink tightly, so stay away from them, lest they get contaminated with them, and go into the house quickly. ”

Cheng Xi asked suspiciously, "Aunt Liu, where are you going to take these things at this time?" ”

Aunt Liu responded, "This thing is very pickled, no one wants it, I usually keep it for a day or two to see if there are any guests to feed the livestock, so I will do a personal favor, no one wants to throw it away, otherwise this thing stinks and kills." ”

Cheng Xi was speechless when she heard this, thinking about the various fat sausages she had eaten before, the price was more expensive than meat, but she didn't expect it to be thrown away as pickled things here, it was too wasteful, she said, I haven't seen the dish of fat sausage in the restaurant, is it not yet?

Cheng Xi's eyes lit up, and he saw that Aunt Liu was about to arrive at the door with her things, and hurriedly said, "Aunt Liu, you wait." ”

Aunt Liu turned her head and responded, "Is there something wrong?" I'll wait until I throw this thing back. ”

Cheng Xi hurriedly said, "No, Aunt Liu, I want the pig in your hand to go into the water, can you give it to me?" ”

Aunt Liu'er actually asked for this thing, and said puzzledly, "Anyway, I'm going to lose it, of course you can." But what do you want this thing for? ”

Xu Sanlang was also a little puzzled, looking at Cheng Xi suspiciously, Cheng Xi showed a pretended mysterious smile on his face, "Look at it, it will surprise you." ”

As he spoke, he went over and took the pig in Aunt Liu'er's hand, only preliminarily treated, it was indeed a little smelly, Cheng Xi covered his nose with one hand and took the pig into the water with the other to command Xu Sanlang, "You hurry up and find me a basin." ”

Aunt Liu looked at Cheng Xi like this, and asked the pig to go into the water, and said funny, "You girl, why do you want this thing if you dislike it like this, I'll go find a pot for you, specially for these, if your pots are used to hold this, it is estimated that they will not be able to be used in the future." ”

Cheng Xi was not polite, and responded with a smile, "Thank you Aunt Liu, if this thing is done, you will definitely not suffer." ”

Aunt Liu looked at Cheng Xi and treated her as a child, she didn't pay attention to it at all, she only tossed Cheng Xi blindly with the strength of spoiling the child, and sent two wooden basins to Cheng Xi in the yard after a while.

Butcher Liu's father and son heard that Cheng Xi was going to toss the pig into the water, and they also came out to watch curiously, watching Cheng Xi command Xu Sanlang to turn the pig into the water, and said in his heart that Xu Sanlang's temper was really good, and he was actually tossed by his own child daughter-in-law who had not grown up.

Cheng Xi went to Butcher Liu's kitchen stove and poured a lot of plant ash out of his own kitchen stove, rubbed the pig into the water with plant ash, and then put it in a basin to pickle.

The Liu family didn't do anything, they watched in the yard for so long, watching Cheng Xi mix the pig's water with the grass and wood plaster, and put it in the basin and planned to leave it alone, Butcher Liu finally couldn't help but ask, "Girl, you are like a pot of, what are you doing?" ”

Cheng Xi heard Butcher Liu's description, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and he replied with a helpless smile, "Uncle Liu, don't say that anymore, I plan to clean up this thing and make it for food." ”

Butcher Liu shook his head, "Girl, don't toss around, this thing stinks, how can you eat it?" If you want to eat meat, tell Uncle Liu that Uncle Liu is enough. ”

Cheng Xi said with a smile, "Uncle Liu, don't worry, since I don't like to be troublesome or stinky toss, I must still be a little sure, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work, when it is cleaned up, it will be thrown away if it doesn't work." ”

Butcher Liu saw Cheng Xi's insistence, and Cheng Xi looked confident, so he didn't say anything against it, and he had some expectations in his heart, can this thing really be eaten?

Cheng Xi washed his hands, stood up and said, "I'll go out and buy some spices, and let everyone try my craft tonight." ”

Xu Sanlang saw that it was a little late outside, and he was a little worried that Cheng Xi would go out alone, so he stood up and said, "I'll go out with you." ”

Cheng Xi looked down at Bai Sui who was standing on the side obediently, he didn't want to take Bai Sui out so late, and was about to refuse Xu Sanlang to go with him, he didn't want Bai Sui to suck his saliva, so he spoke first, "Sister-in-law, will you make something delicious in a while?" ”

Cheng Xi looked at the hundred-year-old little gluttony, and reached out to scratch the hundred-year-old nose funny, "Snack goods, when you talk about eating, your eyes will glow, and I will make you one that I have never eaten before." ”

Bai Sui inhaled again, and said in his beautiful baby voice, "Brother and sister-in-law, go quickly, I will stay at home obediently." ”

Cheng Xi squatted down with a smile, "Usually I am active as a little tail, why don't I suddenly use my little tail to drive the way today?" ”

Bai Sui blinked his eyes and responded, "It's dark, I'm walking slowly, it will delay time, and I won't be able to eat delicious food soon." ”

Cheng Xi was speechless when he heard the hundred-year-old answer, this kid's brain is flexible, but that flexibility seems to be used for eating.

Cheng Xi thought in his heart that the child's training plan should also be put on the agenda, and such a smart child can't be delayed.

Aunt Liu on the side looked at such a hundred years old, and she also liked it very much, reached out to pick up the hundred years old, and kissed the hundred years old on the face, before saying with a smile, "Ouch, how can this child be so cute, I want to have such a grandson, I will be content, you go and get busy, I will help you watch the hundred years old." ”

Cheng Xi looked at Aunt Liu's arms funny, frowning and wiping the saliva on her face, and replied, "Then it's hard Aunt Liu." 100 years old, remember to listen to Aunt Liu's words, do you know? ”

The hundred-year-old nodded to Cheng Xi in a hurry, then covered his face in a panic, looked at Aunt Liu'er's hand raised in front of him, and said with a disgusted expression, "Aunt Liu, your hands stink." ”

"Ouch, look at my memory, I forgot that I just touched the pig in the water, walked into the house, and Aunt Liu washed you."

Cheng Xi and Xu Sanlang went out to the vegetable market and wandered around, the stalls had already been closed, the vegetable market was empty at this time, only a few grain and grocery stores were still open, Cheng Xi went to those stores and walked around, bought a lot of ginger, garlic, dried chili peppers and other things, and finally made a little soju.

While buying Cheng Xi, he also introduced to Xu Sanlang, "Ginger and garlic can be fishy, and so can soju, but unfortunately there is no soy sauce, and I will come back to tinker with soy sauce when it is empty." ”

Xu Saburo only listened quietly on the side, surprised too much, and gradually became calm.

At first, Xu Sanlang would ask, once or twice Cheng Xi also answered, but later asked more times, Cheng Xi began to prevaricate, and seemed unwilling to say more, and then Xu Sanlang stopped asking.

After buying the seasoning and coming back, it was already dark, Cheng Xi began to tinker with the pig in the basin again, Xu Sanlang also followed to help, washed it, passed the water, deodorized it, heated the oil pot and added ginger, garlic, dried chili pepper, pepper, etc., stir-fried, and after a while, the spicy fragrance wafted in the kitchen, attracting the Liu family opposite, and brought the hundred-year-old over.

"Ah, it's so fragrant, you girl has two brushes." Butcher Liu praised while smelling the smell.
