Chapter 167: Making Dumplings

"Sister-in-law, don't make trouble, I'm busy!"

"If you don't choose, I'll choose it for you! If you choose the one who is thin and fat, don't blame me. ”

There are 14 people in Chen Sui's family, and each person can get seven taels, that is, nine catties and eight taels.

As for the matter of adding five to Eryi, using power for personal gain, and adding ten catties to his aunt, Butcher Chen never thought about it, and he would not do it.

How much meat is given, he will calculate it later, and tell him to listen, after weighing the meat, the accountant will look at the scale, how much he wants, and if he wants to eat more and take more occupy, there is no door.

Compared with the surrounding villages, the cadres of Chen Hui Village are still very responsible and relatively honest, not to mention that they are doing a very good job in mutual supervision, especially the village accountant, who has a rod and scale in his heart, and in terms of numbers, he grasps it more tightly and calculates it more clearly, and no one wants to fool him.

"Don't don't, don't, I'll come by myself, first cut me two taels of lard, and for the rest, I want this piece and this piece, if it's not enough, cut me some on this piece of meat, and make up enough for my nine catties and eight taels of meat."

Everything was decided by Chen Sui, the captain's daughter-in-law, the cousin-in-law, in front of her mother-in-law, did not have the slightest face, she didn't even say a word, just a tool man, Chen Sui chose to weigh it, she carried the basket and carried the meat.

"Auntie, your eyes are good enough! Not minus the year. The words in his mouth didn't stop, but the movements in Butcher Chen's hands were neat, and he divided five by two in three times, and then loaded the meat that his aunt wanted.

When he was young, he sold meat for a few years, but he practiced his feel, hung up the scales and weighed them, the difference was not far behind, and there were two or two scales, and he cut a small lump of meat with belt oil directly from a piece of meat, and put it on the scale, which was complete.

The accountant read it, and after confirming that it was correct, he put a tick behind Chen Zongze's name, and wrote a 9.8 after it.

"Next."

The speed of the team is not fast, it often takes a minute or two to advance to a position, and the long time will even take four or five minutes to argue with Butcher Chen and the accountant.

For the three brothers and sisters of the Qin family who were ranked seventh, every time they advanced a position, their eyes lit up a point, they were in sixth place, and more than ten minutes passed, and it was finally their turn.

"Sister, you can choose which piece you want, my eldest brother and I are not as proficient as you in this regard."

Qin He and Qin Jiang, who were standing on the left and right sides of Qin Xi, took a small step out, giving her plenty of space, so as not to affect Qin Xi's performance.

Unconsciously, it has been two and a half years since Qin Xi came to this book world, and to be honest, sometimes, she even forgets that this is a story in a book, because all around her are living, flesh-and-blood people.

No matter what kind of world this is, it doesn't matter to her, she just needs to remember that the people around her are living people, and it is right to live every day with peace of mind, this time, she wants to see her motherland take off with her own eyes.

After staying here for a long time, following the customs, Qin Xi chose to be the favorite of people at this time, a piece of meat with a lot of fat, plus two taels of lard, and the oil for the next two months at home depends on this half a catty of fat plus two taels of lard.

Got the meat in the village, this is not the end, pig head viscera pig trotters pig tail pork ribs stick bones these things, not liked by the villagers, generally speaking, will be picked left, to the time, five cents a pound of "pork", buy it casually, it depends on whether you are willing to give up this money.

Qin Xi is naturally willing, buying meat in the village is much more cost-effective than buying meat on the black market, there are still three days to Chinese New Year's Eve, five yuan a farmer's chicken can not afford it, five cents a pound of bone meat can still afford.

The ten pounds of flour I bought in Yongxin County a month ago are still six pounds left, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, Qin Xi plans to make dumplings and meat filling, so the two pounds and one or two pounds of meat at home are really not enough, no matter how you plan it, you can't keep it that day.

"Which of you stays here in line? The rest of the one, go home and feed the rabbits. ”

"When everyone gets their own share of meat, we can also buy meat and go back to eat, five cents a catty, isn't it a good deal!"

Seeing Qin Jiang and Qin He nodding frantically, Qin Xi silently decided to buy more later, in this kind of weather, this fresh meat is placed outdoors, and it will be frozen overnight, and it will not be bad if it waits for five, six, seven or eight days.

"When there are only a few people left, I'll come here to pick you up, who are you going to leave here to line up?"

Qin Xi estimated that it would take more than an hour to wait for the meat to be divided, although it seemed silly to wait here, but if you could buy good meat, it would be worth it.

The sun has already come out, standing in line under the sun, in winter, it is very friendly to humans, if you don't kill pigs today, the sun comes out, their three brothers and sisters, at this time, should also stay outside to bask in the sun.

"I'm me, I'll stay here and line up, you pay attention to the time, it's okay at home, just come here to bask in the sun."

Qin He didn't say that he was standing in line here alone, his heart was unbalanced, and he had to ask someone to accompany him or something, he was just afraid that his sister Qin Xi would miss the time, if it was his turn, but Qin Xi hadn't come yet, and the good meat had been bought by others, how distressing it should be!

After all, he is really poor and white, and all the whole body adds up to only three cents, and with his little money, he can't even buy a pound of ribs.

"Don't worry, we will." After Qin Xi patted her second brother on the shoulder, she left directly, followed by Qin Jiang.

"Sister, what are we going to eat at noon?"

"Meat, pork, let's go back and boil lard first."

"Can you give me some of the lard residue after boiling the oil?"

"Yes, but you can only eat two pieces, and the rest will be used to make dumplings."

"Dumplings?" Qin Jiang repeated these two words, falling into the memories of the past.

He still remembered a long time ago, on Chinese New Year's Eve, the dumplings that the family must eat, at that time, he could get four, and then there were fewer and fewer, and then later, he could only get one.

Until last year's Chinese New Year's Eve, he and his sister spent time at his grandmother's house, and although the meal was rich, it didn't taste good because of his heart.

Now it's just the three of them, but fortunately, the people he cares about are still there.

As for the Qin family, Qin Jiang treated them in addition to face or face, and all the previous things could not be smoothed out by time.

"What's wrong? Don't you like to eat dumplings? Qin Xi asked curiously.

No, it won't! When she was in the Qin family before, she obviously saw that he cherished his food, and she was miserable at first glance.

"Like, can I eat four dumplings?"

"Of course you can, I'll wrap you ten, it's perfect."
