Chapter 19: Fat Sausage

Lu Yangge took the fishing net and got on the boat, and Qiu had already cooked the pig's large intestine.

The pig's trotters and pig's bones were also put into the pot together, blanched in water, and left for a few days.

Lu Yangge and Lu Xiaoyu squatted side by side by the stove, watching Qiu turn over the pig's trotters and pig's bones in the boiling water, skimming off the foam on them.

"Cooking meat today?" Lu Quan carried the bucket and put it at Qiu's feet, "The fish have not been easy to catch recently, so I have to get these, and it's not worth buying, you let the little carp clean up and dry the fish." ”

"Hmm."

Qiu glanced at the barrel at his feet and sighed. The small half-barrel fish is very fresh, but it is not big, and it is sent to the town to sell, and even if it can be sold, it is estimated that it will not be sold for a few pennies.

"Little carp, go and clean up the fish."

Lu Xiaoli answered, and the bucket was about to go to the river to kill fish, but Lu Yangge followed: "Second sister, this miscellaneous fish can be used as small fish potstickers." ”

Jiang Ba is near the water, the fish balls are well done, and the small fish pot stickers are also well done.

Delicious miscellaneous fish, put in the pot with green onions, ginger and garlic, and paste a circle of corn tortillas or dough cakes on the side of the pot, which is the small fish potstickers that the locals often eat.

The Lu family has a boat, and they eat more fish than rice.

Lu Yangge especially loves the small fish potstickers made by Qiu's, and even the cakes pasted on the side of the pot, she thinks they are better than the steamed cakes on weekdays.

"Eat, eat, you know how to eat."

Lu Xiaoli glared at Lu Yangge: "Eat pig intestines at night, and eat fish, why don't you go to heaven." ”

After speaking, it didn't matter whether Lu Yangge was angry or not, he threw off his braids and went to the stone steps by the river with a wooden barrel to kill fish.

Lu Yangge watched Lu Xiaoli go to kill the fish angrily, and he was not angry, and turned around to find Qiu.

"Mother, let's make braised fat sausages later, I'll teach you to do it."

Thinking of the braised fat sausage, Lu Yangge wanted to drool, when she was in the welfare home before, she had this mouthful. Because the welfare institute has its own lo-mei stall, the vegetables and meat can't be sold, so they bring it back to give them a tooth sacrifice.

Among them, her favorite is the marinated fat sausage, as soon as you bite into it, the rich sauce aroma mixed with the plump fat suddenly overflows in the mouth, and the soft and glutinous and firm smooth taste is like dancing on the tip of the tongue, which is addictive.

It's a pity that I can't even eat enough rice here, let alone eat lo-mei or braised fat sausages.

"Hey, okay, listen to Xiao Si, just make braised fat sausages, Xiao Si said to do this, and my mother will do it."

As long as it was mentioned by Lu Yangge, Qiu did not disagree, she quickly poured the pig's feet and pig bones that had been boiled with boiling water into the pot on the side to cool.

At noon, there is a pig's large intestine to eat, and the pig's feet and bones will be kept and eaten the day after tomorrow.

Eat pig intestine today, and eat pig's feet and pork bones during the Dragon Boat Festival the day after tomorrow......

It's rare to eat a meat at home, and you can't live for a long time, eat it today and eat it tomorrow, and it's just right to stay the day after tomorrow.

There is a meat dish, which can be regarded as a holiday.

Thinking about Qiu's heart, I feel palpitations, when did their life go so well?

You can eat meat every day!

Lu Xiaoli squatted on the stone next to the boat to kill fish, she glanced at Lu Yangge, and then at the steaming hot gas tandoor that came out.

She wanted to be angry, but the corners of her mouth turned up uncontrollably.

Lu Xiaoli was angry that Xiao Si spent so much copper money without asking, and he was also happy that he could eat meat at home.

I can finally eat meat!

In these two complex emotions, Lu Xiaoli was a little dazed for a while, not knowing whether to be angry with Xiao Si or praise Xiao Si.

It's just, it's melancholy!

According to Lu Yangge's instructions, Qiu blanched the pig's large intestine first, then put salt, green onions, ginger and garlic, and put spicy seeds, and stewed in a pot.

Xiao Si said, you can eat it when the stew is delicious, of course, if it is stewed, cut into pieces, and then enlarge the sauce and stir-fry the spicy seeds, it will be more delicious.

The people on their fishing boats can eat spicy, except for Lu Xiaowu, who is still breastfeeding.

The large intestines of the pig were stewed in the pot, and the meat aroma had a slight smell, which attracted the envy of several nearby families.

The whole Lu family can't do it, they can't eat, and they still boil porridge and stew.

Listening to Li Cancan's mother again, the Lu family stewed pig intestines, and the envy was not so strong.

Pig intestines, that thing, no one likes to eat in good years.

It stinks.

It also wastes oil and firewood.

Smelling the fragrance coming from the Lu family, they inevitably felt greedy in their hearts.

In the past two years, I have even gnawed the bark of a tree when I was hungry, not to mention the large intestine of a pig. If it weren't for them living on Honghu, maybe even their lives would have been lost.

No matter how stinky that thing is, it's also meaty!

Some people have moved their minds to buy a pair and come back to taste it at an unknown date.

Cheap anyway.

"Dad, mother, this is the money from selling reed leaves today."

In the house, Lu Yangge took out the money bag in his arms, opened it, and poured out the copper plate inside.

A pile of copper plates clanged down on the table, and the eyes of the whole family were on it.

Even Lu Xiaowu, who was lying on the bed, no longer hummed and chirped, but listened attentively to the crisp sound of the copper coin falling off the table.

"That's a lot of copper coins!"

Lu Xiaoli stretched out his hand and gently touched them one by one, his fingers were slightly cold, and he felt like he was in a dream.

"Not much."

Lu Yangge looked at Lu Xiaoli's number of copper coins and copper coins, "Today, we sold reed leaves for sixty-five wen. ”

They picked a total of three baskets of reed leaves, gave two handfuls to the vegetable buyer, and sold the rest for just sixty-five wen.

These accounts have been calculated many times by Lu Xiaoli on the way back.

Now seeing this pile of copper coins in front of her, she still can't believe it.

Sixty-five is not much?

Lu Quan and Qiu glanced at each other, it was really childish.

The reeds on the river beach could be sold for money, and they never thought of it.

You must know that life is not good now, the fish is difficult to hunt and it is not easy to sell, and Lu Quan's income is only ten or twenty yuan a day when he is good.

If the weather is bad, or the net is empty, there will be no income on this day.

It is also difficult to go to the dock to carry work, yesterday and Chen Ping'an were busy for half a day, and Luojiabu Shop only gave the two of them ten cents, deducting a full half.

It's not that their hands are rough and they scratch the fabric.

The conscience of heaven and earth, the fabric is wrapped in things, they don't dare to look at it, how can they scratch it.

Lu Yangge watched Lu Xiaoli touch all the copper plates and count them over and over again, the sun outside the house shone on Lu Xiaoli's hands, and his black and thin hands grabbed the money and were reluctant to put it down.

A handful of copper coins overflowed in her hand and was about to leak out of her fingers, so frightened that Lu Xiaoli carefully put it back on the table again, afraid that she would accidentally drop one on the ground and roll it to that corner and never find it again.

"It took twenty yuan to buy pig's feet and big bones, and that piece of cloth, which was sold cheaply in the store, and I bought five feet for seventeen yuan. I also bought a lot of ingredients and used a ......."

17Wen bought five feet of cloth, which was very cheap.

Everyone was a little surprised and felt that they had taken a big advantage.

Lu Xiaoli wanted to ask why the big ingredients were so expensive, and suddenly remembered the few bark fruits that Xiao Si took out when his mother was cooking the pig's large intestine just now, and said that this was the big food.

Just a few things, bark, dried fruit, is worth three cents?

For three pennies, in the past, you can buy two large meat buns, three baked cakes with sesame seeds, and six chickens......

What a loser!

Lu Xiaoli didn't want to speak in an instant, she originally thought that buying meat and cloth was too much.

I didn't expect that Xiao Si could be even more excessive, spending three dollars to buy a small handful of bark fruits, just to stew a pig's intestine!
