Chapter 18: Regret or No Regret
Liu Sidong and his son put the meat they bought into their bucket of hot and sour noodles and went home together, not realizing that someone behind them had been sneaking with them for a long time.
"Isn't that the mother's family of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Su family? Is this a fortune? How many pounds of meat in a row? ”
Wang Gaoyuan wiped the hara that flowed from the corner of his mouth, and walked in the opposite direction with jealousy.
This is the father of the second daughter-in-law, Wang.
But no matter how he thought about it, he felt strange, and after returning home, he couldn't help but say to his daughter-in-law Li Damei: "Today I saw Huan Yuyu's mother's family, good guy, there are only a few people in his family!" I bought a pound of lean meat and two pounds of fat at one time! ”
"What? How is this possible, are you mistaken? The last time I went to the river to wash clothes, I heard that a mother's family was from Wangbei Village, and came back to discuss, saying that Liu's parents went to Lao Su's house to ask for money, and were driven away by Mrs. Tian. Could it be that it was given again later? ”
"I don't know, if you go and inquire tomorrow, then Liu's mother's family is notoriously poor, when she entered the Su family, she didn't have a dowry at all, how can she be like our daughter, so I gave her two new clothes and nicknames!"
"That makes sense, I'll ask early tomorrow morning."
As soon as Li Damei thought of the three catties of meat, she couldn't be greedy, so she said a few words in a weird way, and went to do other work.
When Liu Sidong's father and son went back, it was afternoon, but it was still early, and everyone was working hard at home. Tired or not? Have you eaten? ”
4 "I'm not tired, today is actually a little earlier than yesterday's sold, because I went to buy something, so I came back late." Liu Sidong said happily, first went to his bedroom to look at Li, and saw that her condition had improved a lot, and she could lie in the bedroom and occasionally say a few words to the people in the Great North House, and put her mind at ease.
Then he told him how much money he sold today and how many debts he repaid, and at the same time, he and Liu Chongsheng took out the meat and soy sauce vinegar in the bucket.
"Ah, there's meat to eat!" The moment Su Wan saw the two large pieces of meat, she shouted out in surprise, but then remembered what Mrs. Tian had said, so she stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and replaced it with an aggrieved look.
Everyone thought it was funny when they saw her face change like a trick, only Liu's face changed, hugged her into his arms, and gently comforted her: "At Grandpa's house, if you have a mother to eat a mouthful of meat, you will have meat to eat." ”
"What? What kind of dumb riddle are you playing? Su Qingyan looked at the meat, and then at the mother and daughter of the Liu family, Su Wan, and felt a little inexplicable.
Su Wan shook her head lightly, and said with some sadness: "Second sister, you forgot a lot of things after you hit your head, and your temperament has changed, you don't remember what our grandmother said!" Our family can eat a meal of meat during the New Year, but our grandmother said that girls are not qualified to eat meat if they lose money, and at that time my little sister was still young, because she didn't eat meat and cried all night! ”
Eh, she really doesn't know about this matter, Su Qingyan bit her lip, glanced at the two piles of meat again, and thought angrily, Mrs. Tian didn't let their sisters eat meat, and when she bought meat in the future, she specially carried a stool, went to Mrs. Tian, and showed her the meat to eat!
When Liu Sidong heard Su Xiang say this, he couldn't help but scold the old witch, and then he stood up suddenly, mentioned the lean meat and fatty meat, and walked to the kitchen with a high spirit: "Who dares not let my niece eat meat!" We have to eat! Let's eat it! Eat chunks! ”
Su Qingyan's eyes lit up, and he found that he was looking at this arrogant and impulsive uncle, which was becoming more and more pleasing to the eye.
Hurriedly stood up, followed Liu Sidong like a little tail, and shouted excitedly: "I'll come, uncle, you burn the fire, I'll cook." ”
"Don't look at Su Qingyan's girl, she looks very arrogant, in fact, her cooking skills are not bad, and it should be no problem to cook pork for her." Liu was naturally happy when he saw his younger brother defending his daughters like this, but he was also afraid that his father and mother were worried that Su Qingyan would be ignorant and would be blind to pork, so he hurriedly said a few words for her.
At that time, Su Qingyan made fish and tofu stew, and she often missed the nickname!
Unexpectedly, she thought too much, Dai didn't care about these at all, and she didn't expect to grow so big, a child who had never eaten two mouthfuls of pork at all, how delicious the pork could be, she just smiled and waved her hand: "As long as it's not mushy and ruthless, it's all edible, and it's just a matter of practicing for the child." ”
Su Qingyan, who was busy in the kitchen at this time, if he knew that he was in his grandmother's heart, he would only have such an expectation, and he would be so angry that he would grow hair.
She's full of energy and ready to show off her skills.
She first cut the lean meat and the fat separately and put it on the cutting board, asked her uncle to help her make the fire, and then poured some water into the pot and put the fat meat to squeeze the oil.
Liu Sidong saw that this process was not quite right, although he didn't cook often, but when he was a child, he often surrounded Dai's side, watching her cook, and he obviously remembered that she didn't release water!
wanted to stop it out loud, but before he could make a sound, Su Qingyan had already poured the meat into it, and he only had time to open his mouth.
Okay, it should be regarded as practicing for Su Qingyan, anyway, Su Qingyan has the most credit for earning this money, and if he can't practice oil, they eat fat meat the same.
Liu Sidong thought about it and closed his mouth again.
Su Qingyan looked at his uncle's strange behavior, tilted his little head suspiciously, and asked, "Uncle, are you thirsty?" Or is it smoked? ”
"No, it's okay, it's just that I was a little surprised to see you add water and put fat meat to fry it."
"Oh, that's what you're talking about, water and oil can't be fused, I added some water at the beginning to prevent the pork from going down to the paste, the lard boiled out is relatively black, and there are impurities, and then the water will evaporate, and in the end all that is left is oil, don't believe it, now the water is almost gone." Su Qingyan said that he was about to get out of the way.
Liu Sidong doesn't know how to cook, and he can't argue with a little girl, where can he really look at it, but he just smiled and shook his head without moving.
Su Qingyan also smiled and squeezed the lard seriously.
She looked at the pieces of white fat meat, because of her stirring, it slowly turned into small pieces of oil residue, and at the same time, the air began to be filled with the unique aroma of boiled lard, and a burst of pride welled up in her heart, and at the same time, she thanked the small video APP in her previous life.
There is a saying, I have never eaten pork, and I have never seen a pig run? This is not a gourd to draw a scoop, just to draw it, quite successful.
The smell was so fragrant that the people in the north room could bear it at first, but later they couldn't sit still at the thought that the oil residue was about to come out.
The family came to the kitchen neatly to watch Su Qingyan cook.
Liu Chongsheng also replaced Liu Sidong to make a fire.
They watched Su Qingyan take out the oil residue and put it in a bowl, pinched a little salt and sprinkled it, and couldn't help but swallow their saliva, even Liu Yicai and Dai couldn't hold back.
The poor peasant families who are suffering finally have meat to eat, and it is a lie to say that they don't want to eat it, and no one can laugh at anyone.
However, they wanted to eat and wanted to eat, but they were still reluctant, so they just persuaded their three nieces and a grandson to eat more.
Su Qingyan watched them let go and go, no one ate it, a little anxious, so he took a small bowl, and each person divided eight or nine pieces, and said: "This thing is delicious, but it is too oily, we have been eating vegetarian for many years, if you eat too much, your body can't withstand such a big oil and water, it will be uncomfortable, you can eat a few pieces at a meal, and eat the rest later." ”
