Chapter Eighty-Six: The Banquet

The more he thought about it, the happier he became, and he almost said congratulations directly to Xu Xiaowan.

Xu Xiaowan stood next to her and didn't interject, but Su Xiao'e began to be polite to the teaching director while giving her a warm welcome.

"Then when we Xiaowan arrives at the school, we will have to trouble the two teachers to take care of it. You also know that our family lives in the countryside, and we can't take care of Xiaowan every day, and when the time comes, ......"

"Don't worry, an excellent student like Xu Xiaowan, we will definitely focus on cultivating, when she arrives at school, she will directly enter the key class, in addition, in English, you don't have to worry, we will arrange for the teacher to open a small stove for her alone."

Su Xiao'e was even more relieved when she heard this.

Zhang Qinfen was originally very happy, but when she thought of the school that Xiaowan needed to take out after she went to school, she immediately began to frown.

The teaching director also saw Zhang Qinfen's anxiety at this time.

At present, the rural economy is not developing well, especially this year, when the disaster is severe, and many families are unable to eat enough, so where can they still have money to send their children to school.

In addition, it is still a girl who goes to school, and the countryside generally favors sons over girls, I don't know if Xiaowan will be denied school by her family on the grounds of economic conditions.

"Old sister-in-law, a good seedling like Xiaowan is really rare, I know that this year has been seriously affected, and many families can't come up with money, so we can give Xiaowan a subsidy for her difficult appearance, and we can also reduce your burden when the time comes."

When Zhang Qinfen heard the teaching director say this, her face became embarrassed.

"How embarrassing is this, director, don't worry, since my daughter is a student of study, our family will provide for her to go to school even if she smashes the pot and sells iron."

When the director of education heard Zhang Qinfen say this, the original worry disappeared at once, and several people exchanged pleasantries for a while, and after the director of teaching handed the admission notice to Xu Xiaowan, he left with Teacher Zhang.

Originally, Su Xiao'e wanted to keep a few people to eat at home, but the two teachers refused on the grounds that they would teach the students for a while.

Su Xiao'e had no choice but to bring two bacon rabbits to the two teachers who were drying at home.

The two teachers left with a smile on their faces.

When a few people left, Xu Xiaowan was able to go to school, and Su Xiao'e was even more excited than Xu Xiaowan.

I saw that she began to ask people for dinner.

"Mom, in a while, we will invite the village chief and a few people who are more familiar with the village to our house for dinner, and celebrate Xiaowan."

"You kid, why do you say that the wind is the rain, and you're about to start inviting people to dinner?"

"Sister-in-law, I have just been admitted to high school, and I haven't been admitted to college yet, so I don't need to be treated."

"Who said that, you see that there are so many people in the village, and a few of them are in high school, besides, those who are in high school are the dean of education who personally came to give out the notice? It's not to be celebrated in advance. ”

"But, if you don't get into college by then, won't you be laughed at?"

"What's the joke, even if you can't pass the test, they don't deserve to laugh at it, you can't pass the test, they didn't even go to high school, what's the joke."

Su Xiao'e said, and began to process the bacon marinated during the New Year.

By the way, he also took five yuan to Xu Xiaowan.

"Xiaowan, you will go to Butcher Zhang's house to buy two catties of pork ribs in a while, and then cut half a catty of pork, and if you see a pig's intestine or pig blood, you can also bring some back by the way."

The current price of pork is a pound of money, and because there is no meat, there are not many people who buy pork ribs, so the price of pork ribs is much cheaper, and the cheapest ones are these offal.

So the five yuan that Su Xiao'e took out and used it to buy these things was more than enough.

If it weren't for the fact that it was not good to go to the county seat to buy vegetables at this point in time, Su Xiao'e would still want to go to the county town to buy a fish and come back to make spicy fish.

Xu Xiaowan was admitted to high school, so she can't celebrate it.

Zhang Qinfen looked at Su Xiao'e excitedly, and had to look at her daughter-in-law with a helpless smile on the side.

"Okay, Mom knows you're happy, Mom will go call someone for you."

Zhang Qinfen said, put down the work in hand, and went out to call someone.

The village chief came to report the news, and the person called someone, and the village chief's family must have called together.

In addition to the village chief's family, familiar neighbors, Zhang Qinfen only picked a few good ones and called two or three families, and made up a table.

Su Xiao'e was busy at home, and by the time Zhang Qinfen came back, lunch had already been prepared.

Because of the banquet dinner, the family planned to eat casually at lunch.

Although it is said to be casual, but Su Xiao'e cooks, then there is no casualness.

I saw that there were four or five kinds of dishes on a table, although they were all home-cooked dishes, but they were better looking.

When Zhang Qinfen and Xu Xiaowan came back, Su Xiao'e beckoned a few people to start eating.

"Mom, Xiaowan, come and eat."

Originally, Xu Xiaowan was admitted to high school, and the one who needed a banquet the most was Qi Tianming, but seeing Xu Jianjian's rejection of Qi Tianming and Xu Xiaowan's contact, Su Xiao'e felt that it would be better for her and Xu Jianshe to invite Qi Tianming to dinner alone next time.

After eating, Su Xiao'e got busy, and Zhang Qinfen and Xu Xiaowan started to fight.

Although the pig intestine that Xu Xiaowan bought was cleaned once, Su Xiao'e still took the pig intestine and reprocessed it for the sake of taste.

The most important step in dealing with the large intestine of the pig is to tear off the casing inside, so that the large intestine of the pig will not have a fishy smell and will be cleaner.

After removing the casing, Su Xiao'e grabbed a large handful of flour and scrubbed it again until the water began to become clear and transparent, and the pig's large intestine was completely cleaned.

Zhang Qinfen looked at Su Xiao'e's skillful handling of the pig's large intestine, and couldn't help laughing:

"Xiao'e, you eat a large intestine and there are so many twists and turns, the money to buy the pig's large intestine is not enough to wash the flour used to wash the pig's large intestine."

Zhang Qinfen used to clean the pig's large intestine when she made braised meat, but she was reluctant to use so much flour for cleaning, but after tearing off the casing, the taste of the pig's large intestine was much better than that sold by others.

Su Xiao'e smiled and said to her mother-in-law:

"Mom, this is eaten by my own family, so naturally I have to pay attention to it, and I will treat guests later."

After Su Xiao'e processed the pig's large intestine, she began to boil water, whether the pig's large intestine was fried or mixed and eaten, it was marinated first and then cooked, and the taste was much better than that of direct frying.

Su Xiao'e is a master at making braised pork, put a few spices in it, and as the water in the pot boiled, it didn't take long for Zhang Qinfen to smell the fragrance of braised pork.

"Xiao'e, you taught me to make braised pork before, did you hide it, why do you feel that the smell of what you make smells better than the smell of what I make?"
