Jiang Yan quickly understood that the croppers rarely eat meat, and sometimes they are really hungry, so they will buy some pigs to go to the water, although they can't clean it, even if it is done, it is a smell of rice and fields, but it is meat at all, and the price is cheap, and eating it once in a while can satisfy the cravings.

If you want to wash it clean and beautiful in color, it is best to use cornstarch and flour to rub it repeatedly, but Jiang Yan is reluctant to waste it, she thought about it, and pulled out some plant ash from the earthen stove.

Command the two daughters-in-law to turn over all the large intestines of the pig, then clean them, rub them vigorously with plant ash, tear off all the large pieces of oil and lymph nodes inside, rub them repeatedly with plant ash, and then wash them with water, so that they can be washed several times.

The rest of the pig lungs and pork belly are also operated in the same way, after they are all washed, they are passed over again with hot water, Jiang Yan poured some flour and kneaded them again, so that the color of the pig water is more white.

It took a long time for the three of them to work together to get dozens of catties of pigs into the water, at this time the bone broth on the stove was almost the same, and the things on the two stoves were brought down, Jiang Yan washed the big iron pot, cut some pork belly and large intestine, stir-fried ginger slices in hot oil, and stir-fried the cut pigs in the underwater pot together, put some wild vegetables and chili sauce, and a choking fragrance came out instantly.

Jiang Yan shoveled out the stir-fried pig in the water, washed the big iron pot and earthen pot again, added water and boiled, and prepared to simply marinate a pig in the water.

"Mother... Yesterday, it was my fault that I didn't take good care of Xiao Wu, so that he was abducted and sold, mother...... Don't be angry, I... I know wrong. ”

Wang Jinhua looked at her mother-in-law who was busy in the kitchen and didn't speak, she didn't know the bottom of her heart, and thought that her mother-in-law wanted her to take the initiative to admit her mistake.

"Mother, I'm not right either, don't be angry, your daughter-in-law will never make a mistake in the future......"

Liu Xiaomeng saw this, and also said with tears in her eyes, after she came to the Lin family, although she had never seen her mother-in-law lose her temper, but she had seen her mother-in-law several times before, and every time she lost her temper, she greeted the eighteenth generation of her ancestors, and she beat people if she didn't agree with her!

Jiang Yan looked at the trembling and frightened appearance of the two, and felt a little distressed for a while, the toes exposed on the straw sandals of the two were grinding blood, although they had been simply washed, there were many abrasions on their bodies that were obvious.

Yesterday, in order to find Xiao Wu, the two of them walked in the mountains and fields several times in the village, but they didn't know the hard work, and they were still worried about whether she would be angry.

"I can't blame you, anyway, it's good that Xiao Wu found it, don't cry, hurry up and go out with the food and prepare for dinner."

The two daughters-in-law saw that their mother-in-law was not angry, and immediately went to serve dishes and set up dishes and chopsticks, Wang Jinhua took out a set of brand-new earth-colored ceramic bowls, which was a new set of chopsticks bought by her mother-in-law.

"Mother, is there boiling pig water in the pot? Don't you need to cut it smaller?"

Wang Jinhua watched her mother-in-law casually cut a few knives and threw the pig in the pot into the water, and asked while helping to burn the firewood.

"No, just cook it like that, I'm going to try to make something new."

Jiang Yan said as she took out some spices from her pocket and placed them on the stove.

Wang Jinhua held half a basin of water, and said curiously while washing: "Mother, what is this?" Do you want to put it all in? ”

Jiang Yan opened his mouth and said: "These are some medicinal materials found in the mountains, I saw that some restaurants will be put in the dishes, and some are seasonings bought in the town, which smell very fragrant, this is bay leaves, this is star anise, licorice." Cumin ...... If it's done, I'll write it down again, and you'll learn to do it when the time comes. ”

Jiang Yan wrapped the medicinal herbs with the cloth left over from the last cut cloth bag, tied them into two small sunny dolls, and put one in a pot.

These ingredients are easy to sink to the bottom after boiling for too long, so for convenience, it is better to wrap them in cloth and stew them.

These common seasonings are rarely used in food in this era, and most of them are sold as medicinal herbs in the medical hall, and people here do not know that they can be used as seasoning ingredients, and the price of everything is not cheap.

Jiang Yan didn't go to the town's medical center, all of them were secretly bought in the mall, and there were no chili peppers in this era, even if the people in the village found wild chili peppers in the mountains, they would not take them back to eat, but used dogwood instead.

Every household has some dogwood, and when Jiang Yan made chili sauce, she put a lot of dogwood together, which is also a relatively common spicy seasoning in this era.

After putting all the ingredients away, the pot was simmering, and she said: "You won't go up the mountain today, take Xiaodouzi and Xiaowu at home, fill the firewood from time to time, and this pot of pig will be stewed for an hour." ”

Wang Jinhua nodded again and again: "I know my mother, I will guard the fire and Xiao Wu well!" ”

When they returned to the hall, the whole family was sitting at the dinner table, except for Erbi and Lin Dong, who couldn't get up, everyone else was waiting for Jiang Yan.

After Jiang Yan took the main seat, Lin Dong also hurried back, he subconsciously stared at the dishes on the dinner table and licked his saliva, before he spoke: "Mother, I went to find Grandpa Tiezhu, he said that if he was just injured, he would just drink a few doses of medicine, and if he couldn't cure anything else, he didn't come to see a doctor and prescribed me medicine for two days." ”

Grandpa Tiezhu is the mountain doctor in the village, because his name is Lin Tiezhu, so everyone calls him Grandpa Tiezhu, he worked in the pharmacy when he was young, and he didn't study medicine seriously, but he will help him take a look at some minor illnesses and pains in the village.

Generally, the poor family will prescribe medicine according to the symptoms, because the door-to-door consultation costs money, and it is estimated that the Lin family is relatively poor, and they can't come up with this money, so they simply prescribe medicine directly, and no one comes.

Jiang Yan nodded: "Let's eat, I'll go up the mountain in a while, I'll go see Erbi." ”

Jiang Yan held a bowl of brown rice porridge, covered with a few pieces of back pot meat and some fried mushrooms with meat slices, and some of the same vegetables, returned to the room, carefully helped Erbi up, and leaned on the folded quilt.

"Do you want to sit still? I prescribed medicine for you, and after eating, I asked your cousin Dongzi to carry you to the doctor's place. ”

Erbi's little head shook, and he whispered in a soft voice: "Thank you... Little aunt, I don't need to see a doctor, just lie down. ”

"Don't... Waste of money, I... I don't hurt! ”

"Let's eat first."

Jiang Yan handed the bowl over, but the little guy raised his hand a few times and put it down with a hoarse grin, Jiang Yan had to feed him little by little, and when the poked meat was eaten in his mouth, his little swollen eyes lit up, and then his small body hurriedly shrank back.

"Little aunt... Don't, I don't want meat, my aunt eats it herself! Just give me a bowl of wild vegetable paste! ”

My aunt's family is also very poor, if he eats meat and brown rice porridge, what will the others do, the little aunt must have cooked it for her because he was injured! Can't be wasted like this!
