Soon it was four o'clock, and the goods on Tang Xiaofu's stall were almost sold out except for the head flowers, especially handkerchiefs, scarves, buttons, thread balls, etc., which were particularly easy to sell, and they were all sold out.

It doesn't matter if the head flowers are sold or not, but Tang Xiaofu wants to sell all those fake jewelry as much as possible, otherwise no one will buy these fake jewelry when she returns to the city in two days, and it will be wasted.

The countrymen are accustomed to rushing to the market early, which is mainly due to the fact that many villagers who come to the market live far away, so after three o'clock, the flow of people on the street is significantly reduced, and the cold wind blows on the face like a knife cut.

Tang Xiaofu glanced at Xiaolan, who was shrinking her neck, and said, "You just watch the stall here, I'll go buy you a bowl of rice balls." ”

A bowl of vegetarian rice balls here costs only one dime and five cents a bowl, and there are ten rice balls in it.

The difference between the two is that the size of the rice balls is small, less than one-third of the Lantern Festival, but the rice balls in the countryside are half the size of the Lantern Festival, and a bowl of ten is very cost-effective.

Vegetarian glutinous rice balls are rice balls that are not filled.

Tang Xiaolan shook her head: "I'm not hungry, sister, don't waste money." ”

What is there to save on a dime and a half.

Tang Xiaofu ignored Tang Xiaolan's words and went to a stall not far away to buy a bowl of rice balls.

The one who sells the rice balls is an old man, and while cooking the rice balls, he sighed: "Girl, your business is so good, why do I sell food like I am selling shit compared to you?" As he spoke, he served Tang Xiaofu two more rice balls.

Tang Xiaofu was a little embarrassed, she was so old, standing in Xiao Xiao's north wind just to earn some cash to subsidize the family, but the rice balls didn't sell much, and she gave herself two more, so she gave five cents more when she paid.

The old man looked at the money in his hand and shouted at Tang Xiaofu's back: "Hey~ girl, you gave the wrong money, you gave five more points!" ”

Tang Xiaofu turned back as she walked: "It's my grandfather who gave me more rice balls, of course I have to give more money." ”

The old man was a little moved, and said softly: "This kid ......" and accepted the money.

Tang Xiaofu walked to the stall and brought the large porcelain bowl in his hand to Xiaolan: "Eat it while it's hot." ”

Tang Xiaolan returned the bowl to Tang Xiaofu after eating a few, frowned and said, "Sister, it's too much, I can't eat it, sister eats." ”

Tang Xiaofu knew that Xiaolan was playing tricks on her, and she just wanted to eat two for herself.

She took the bowl, ate one by herself, fed Xiaolan one, and the two sisters shared a bowl of rice balls, the two looked at each other and smiled from time to time, the cold weather warmed each other, and they didn't feel so cold.

After eating the rice balls, Xiaofu sent the bowl back to the old grandfather, and continued to set up a stall until five o'clock in the afternoon, except for the head flower, everything was basically sold, only a few rings and a few plastic head flowers were left, and Xiaolan was left to wear it, so the two Tang Xiaofu sisters closed the stall and prepared to go home.

Passing by a pork stall, Xiaofu saw a large piece of pork ribs and a pair of pig's intestines and a pig's intestine and a pig's intestine on the meat stall, a pig's belly, and four pig's feet, so she stopped and bargained with the stall owner and bought them all for five yuan.

Rural people actually like to eat pork belly, pork ribs and pig's feet, but they don't think there is much oil and water, and there is no pork belly to satisfy their cravings, so they generally don't buy, as for the pig intestine, there are really not many people who will want it, mainly because the pig intestine is difficult to clean up the smell, but if it is really clean, it is still quite delicious to eat.

Tang Xiaofu bought some condiments and a few pieces of tofu, Xiaolan said, "Sister will make a hot pot to eat tonight." ”

Xiaolan's eyebrows and eyes were crooked happily, she hadn't eaten hot pot yet, she had only seen the Tang family eat it in the Tang family before, and it was a yellow, orange and orange copper hot pot, which looked very tall.

Back home, Fang Wenjing had already put on the quilt of the cotton wool she had just bought, which was the kind of bed sheet quilt with big flowers and big flowers that Tang Xiaofu had seen on Baidu before, and it was quite festive.

Tang Xiaofu put aside the things she bought, washed her hands and sat on the edge of the bed to count the money, just such a small profit but quick turnover, and also used five yuan to buy pig belly or something, and earned more than 20 yuan.

She handed over the twenty yuan to Fang Wenjing, and asked her to let Fang Wenjing marinate the pork ribs weighing about five catties into bacon, and asked Fang Wenjing to buy a few catties of pork belly back tomorrow, and she was going to fill sausages with pig intestines.

In that era, not to mention the countryside, there were few people in the city who filled sausages and cured bacon for the New Year, because the pickled products fell off the scales, and only about three catties were left after the pickling of five catties of things, who would be willing to do it!

Fang Wenjing didn't know what the sausage her eldest daughter was talking about, and guessed that she must have seen someone do it in the city, so she had to learn to make it.

Why didn't I see that my eldest daughter was so smart before, she would be able to read everything once, so she said: "You and Xiaolan's scholarships are all handed over to me, I used thirty-five yuan to buy quilts and sheets, and there are seventy-five yuan left, plus these twenty yuan can buy a lot of New Year's goods, tomorrow the three of us will go to the town to buy New Year's goods, buy more meat and come back, do whatever you want." "To this eldest daughter, she is simply obedient.

Tang Xiaofu replied yes, and went to take the pig's large intestine, pig's small intestine, pig's feet, and pig's belly to the pond to be washed.

After Fang Wenjing marinated the ribs, she went to chop wood, now the two daughters are at home, and the house will be warm when a brazier is raised every day, and now it is her mother and daughter living alone, and she doesn't want to treat her two daughters badly.

If the pig intestine wants to be delicious, it must be washed and odorized, so washing is a key step, washing the pig intestine and pig belly must use flour to wash clean, because the flour was expensive in that era, and the stomach was just barely filled, who was willing to use flour to clean the pig belly and pig intestine, which is why rural people can not make the pig intestine delicious, so the pig intestine is rarely bought to eat.

In fact, many people don't know that corn flour can also clean the pig's large intestine, and the cost is very low, but Hubei people don't eat miscellaneous grains, and there are very few corn-grown, so they can't buy cornmeal in that era.

When Xiaolan left, she repeatedly told Xiaofu to be careful not to fall into the water, and Xiaofu felt warm when she heard it.

A few minutes later, Xiaolan brought flour, Xiaofu taught her how to use flour to clean pig intestines and other things, some villagers saw it, and said that her two sisters were young, they didn't know how expensive rice was not in charge, and they wasted food, and Xiaofu sisters secretly stuck out their tongues.

It took about half an hour to wash the pig's large intestine and then go home.
