Chapter 15 Oil residue
Bu Linglong pinched Dabao's cheek and picked him up to the horse's side, "Come, let's take a good look, in the future, it will be our family." ”
After being held in his arms, Dabao's tension was greatly reduced, "I...... Can I touch it? ”
It turns out that this is a horse, it grows so tall and big.
"Absolutely."
"Mother, I want to touch."
"I want it too."
As soon as Bu Linglong's words fell, Erbao and Sanbao also came to her side, one holding a thigh, raising his head to look at Bu Linglong, his eyes were full of longing.
"Okay, let's do it one by one." It is still very easy to fulfill this wish of the child.
"Yes, thank you, mother." The second treasure and the third treasure spoke in unison.
"Come on, Dabao try it yourself." Bu Linglong encouraged Dabao.
Dabao looked at Bu Linglong, then at his brothers, and trembled and stretched out his hand to touch the horse's head.
The horse probably knew that Dabao was a delicate child, and when his little hand touched it, he stood there motionless and let him touch it.
“…… OK. Dabao wanted to shout Bu Linglong, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't shout anymore, and finally could only say a word in a low voice.
Bu Linglong felt his awkwardness, the corners of his mouth hooked, smiled and put him down, picked up the second treasure and let him touch the horse, followed by the third treasure, after everyone touched it, Bu Linglong then walked home with the basket on his back again.
Entering the courtyard and closing the door, all eyes were cut off, leaving only the envious mutters of the villagers.
Mrs. Lin was stunned, rubbed her hands nervously, and licked her lips, "Linglong, this ...... Did you really pick it up? ”
That's a horse, it's not a kitten or a puppy, a horse is old and expensive, who would lose such a good horse, isn't this Huo Huo money.
"I really picked it up, I didn't want to bring it back, it had to follow, and I couldn't help it." Bu Linglong replied helplessly.
"This ...... In this way, this horse is quite human. The old lady looked at the horses, and the more she looked, the more she delighted.
"I think so too, whoever is doing a good job of carpentry should help build a frame." Bu Linglong put the back basket in the kitchen and asked as she walked.
"Your uncle is good at carpentry, and when dinner is eaten, I'll go find him." The old lady helped to deal with the things that Bu Linglong brought back.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
"Why do you buy so many things, it's too expensive." When Mrs. Lin saw so much cloth and food, she was so shocked that her jaw was about to fall.
"What's the cost, you can't eat or drink. Don't worry, I earn more today, more than two hundred taels, and our house has also been settled. Bu Linglong didn't hide it from the old lady, and whispered in her ear.
"What, what do you say?" The meat in Mrs. Lin's hand fell to the ground with a bang, her eyes were full of disbelief, she, she heard it right.
", milk, what's wrong with you?" When the three cubs heard the grandmother's exclamation, they didn't care about their curiosity, and quickly ran into the kitchen and came to the old lady.
"No, it's okay, you guys go play." The wealth is not exposed, and the grandson is still young, so he can't say it, so as not to go out and leak his mouth.
"Are you alright?" Dabao's eyes were full of suspicion.
"It's fine. I was scared by what your mother bought. Mrs. Lin used the things placed on the ground as an excuse to divert the children's attention.
"Meat, cloth?" The three of Dabao exclaimed at the same time, their faces full of disbelief.
"Okay, the three of you go out to play first, and I'll make you braised pork to eat at night." Bu Linglong sent the three cubs out.
"Oh, there's meat to eat, there's meat to eat." Erbao and Sanbao were so happy, they almost forgot what pork tasted like, mother, it's really getting better, "Thank you, mother." ”
"If you want to eat meat, then go out obediently."
"Got it."
"Dabao, you are optimistic about your brother."
"Okay." Dabao nodded solemnly, "Second treasure, third treasure, let's go see the horses." ”
Dabao took one in one hand and jumped to the yard to watch the horses.
"I'll take care of this, you can put these in the house, don't get dirty. I won't make clothes, I'll work hard for you when the time comes, one person and two bodies, and those old ones with patches won't be needed. "Those clothes are so torn that she will keep getting them out of the house.
"You kid, why don't you buy such good materials as you, we countrymen can make coarse linen clothes." The old lady touched the fabric in her hand, her heart was very distressed, but her heart was very warm, this is the daughter-in-law honoring herself, she is so happy.
"I'm going to make a good life for you, and that's just the beginning. You have to get used to it. She still doesn't like the material of this dress, but because she doesn't want to be high-profile, step by step, she has to let the villagers get used to it first, and after getting used to it, they don't feel anything if there is a change.
After taking everything out, Bu Linglong began to process the pork belly first.
The pork belly was very smelly, she put it directly into the basin and was ready to take it out to wash, and when she opened the courtyard door, she saw that there were still many people outside who had not left, and she was curious to probe her brain at the door of the house.
Seeing her come out, those people pretended to pass by the door, but when they smelled a foul smell, they covered their noses one after another: "What kind of thing you in the Hansong family, how can you stink so much, you can smoke people to death." ”
"Oh, it's nothing, everyone also knows the situation of my family, I spent two pennies to buy pork belly, and my family can't afford to eat meat, so I can only eat some relief, but it's meat." Bu Linglong smiled very far-fetched.
"You didn't pick up a horse and sell it for money." The man covered his nose and looked at the tall and mighty horse in the yard with dripping eyes.
"The horse is spiritual, and it said that it was picked up, but in fact it came back with me. How could I sell it and not do that immoral thing. Bu Linglong glanced at the man, "I'm busy, please let me go." "I closed the door when I left.
"You say she's not stupid, she's obviously poor, and she still wants to keep that horse, which can be exchanged for a lot of money." The woman couldn't help but complain.
"That's also someone else's business, we don't care if we sell it or not." Hey, it's a pity, why didn't she have such luck.
"I didn't expect her luck to be quite good." There are a lot of people who go out today, but no one has the luck of her, but she just ran into it, who is not jealous and envious.
"It's gone, and it's in vain to see it."
Bu Linglong did not go to the well in the center of the village to wash the pork belly, but walked in the opposite direction, the river was a little far away from the village, too far for everyone, inconvenient.
After cleaning the pork belly inside and out several times, the smoky smell only dissipated a little, but fortunately, she breathed in advance, otherwise she would definitely be smoked and vomited.
After cleaning the pork belly and returning home, she washed it again with the leaves she had gathered, and finally added some vinegar and soaked it in a basin.
After cleaning up the pork belly, I have time to dispose of the pork fat I bought.
The weather is a little hot, the meat can't be left for a long time, cut the plate oil into pieces and then pour it into the pot to prepare to boil the lard, and cut the pork belly and lean meat into some pieces and slices respectively, cut into slices She is ready to fry a marinade, and the lumpy ones will be directly braised pork to eat later.
Not long after the oil was poured into the pot, the smell of meat came out, and the three brothers who were playing in the yard ran into the kitchen to stand aside, sucking their mouths, and looking at the oil residue in the pot with starry eyes.
Bu Linglong took a pair of chopsticks, picked up the oil residue in the pot and put it to his mouth to urge, and beckoned to Sanbao: "Come and taste it, be careful of burning." ”
Sanbao, who was named, excitedly rushed to Bu Linglong, tilted his head, opened his mouth wide, and bit the oil residue that Bu Linglong fed him, and ate it extremely happily, a piece of oil residue was not eaten at all, and he swallowed it into his stomach after a while, "It's delicious, my mother is really fragrant." ”
Erbao and Sanbao looked at Bu Linglong pitifully, expecting her to find them, they really wanted to eat it, it was so fragrant.
How could Bu Linglong forget about them, raised her head and saw the two little guys staring at her and Sanbao pitifully, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, how could there be such a cute little cub, "Come here, everyone has a share, open your mouth, ah......"
Bu Linglong sandwiched the oil residue and gave Dabao and Erbao a pair of chopsticks.
When the oil was almost boiled, Bu Linglong scooped up the oil, divided the oil residue into two bowls, handed one bowl to Dabao, and said softly: "Dabao, take my brother to eat outside, but you can't eat more, there are good things waiting for you at night, just taste it." ”
"Okay." Dabao took the bowl and walked out of the kitchen with his younger brother.
"Erbao, Sanbao, you wait here for a while, and I'll give some milk." After speaking, Dabao took the bowl and ran into the house.
"Milk, oil residue to eat." Dabao picked up a piece of oil residue with his hand and sent it to the old lady's mouth.
Mrs. Lin was packing up the fabric that Bu Linglong bought, and when she saw the oil residue handed to her mouth, she shook her head at Dabao, "Don't eat the milk, Dabao, you can eat it." ”
Dabao is very stubborn, and if the old lady doesn't eat it, he won't withdraw his hand.
"Milk, we still have it."
Seeing that her eldest grandson insisted, Mrs. Lin finally compromised and ate the oil residue in one bite.
The aroma of oil residue spread in the mouth in an instant, rushing straight to the throat, and the whole saliva flooded the mouth.
"Milk, eat another one." Dabao picked up a grease residue and handed it over, but this time Mrs. Lin didn't answer it again, "Dabao, has your mother eaten it?" ”
Hearing this, Dabao's movements froze directly, blinking her eyes, she ...... She didn't seem to have eaten a bite.
"No, I didn't eat it." Dabao lowered his head and said weakly.
"Do you know how?" Old Mrs. Lin touched Dabao's head and said softly.
"Got it." Dabao ran out of the house with the bowl in his arms and went into the kitchen.
I entered the kitchen and stood there hesitantly, my feet buckling back and forth in my shoes, and I didn't know how to speak for a while.
Bu Linglong is stir-frying the meat slices, making them into ingredients, and when the time comes, you can pour noodles directly on them.
When I took the bowl, I found that Dabao was back in the kitchen, standing there motionless, as if he had something to say, but he was very hesitant, "What's wrong?" Do you have something to say to me? ”
