Chapter 16: Is Your Family Rich?
"What about these big bones?" Li Mumu asked again.
"There's just a bit of meat scrap on these big bones, it's not enough to stuff your teeth, do you want it too?" The boss asked in surprise.
He usually throws away these big bones, and wild dogs will pick them up and eat them.
"Yes." Li Mumu nodded.
"Then I'll give it to you, I'll throw it away anyway." The boss said.
"Thank you, boss!" Li Mumu smiled and narrowed his eyes.
How good this big bone is, it's a pity not to stew soup.
I saw that the boss had packed it for her, but she left her large intestine outside.
Li Mumu asked, "Boss, you haven't loaded the large intestine for me yet." ”
"Do you want the large intestine too?" The boss was really shocked at this time, pouting and saying, "This thing stinks!" ”
Even the poorest of them don't want a big intestine.
I can't eat it at all.
And it's still dirty inside.
"Yes." Li Mumu nodded again and again, "You can also pretend for me." ”
"Done." The boss nodded, "Then I'll wrap the large intestine separately for you, otherwise the rest will stink." ”
"Thank you, boss!" Li Mumu grinned sweetly and thanked him.
Li Mumu didn't expect that the harvest this time would be so rich.
The big bones were very heavy, and with those going into the water, it was more difficult for Li Mumu and Gu Xiuxiu to go back to the village together, so they took an ox cart back with Gu Xiuxiu.
Wang Cuizhen and Zhang Caiping saw it and hurriedly stepped forward to help.
As a result, he was still two steps away from Li Mumu, and he smelled a strong fishy smell.
"Mu Mu, what did you buy here?" Wang Cuizhen raised her hand to fan the air in front of her and asked.
"When the pig goes into the water, it can be bought for so much for two pennies." Li Mumu said happily, "It's too cost-effective." ”
This has to be put aside for their modern times, and these things are precious.
I didn't expect people here to stop eating these.
"Why don't you buy a pig to go into the water?" Zhang Caiping asked.
"It's cooked and sold." Li Mumu said while moving things into the kitchen, "I've inquired, those food stalls in the town often cost 10 yuan a piece." ”
"A bowl of somen noodles, without adding anything, will cost seven or eight cents. If you add some more vegetables and meat, you won't be able to get it for fifteen or sixteen dollars. ”
"But how many people can eat all day long." Li Mumu said, "We are doing a small business, and we don't have the conditions to be like other people's fixed food stalls, there is a stall there every day." ”
"So, first of all, we have to reduce the cost and lower the price, so that more people can afford to eat, and there won't be too much burden to buy our things, won't our things sell easily?"
"But what are you going to do with all this?" Zhang Caiping looked embarrassed in the kitchen and watched these pigs go into the water, "Isn't it more wasteful if no one eats it?" ”
"We'll eat these tonight, and I'll braise them for you to taste." Li Mumu said with a smile.
"Is there anything we can do to help?" Wang Cuizhen rolled up her sleeves and was ready to dry.
"Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, if you can, you clean these, and I'll wash the intestines." Li Mumu said.
The large intestine is the most smelly and difficult to wash, and Li Mumu is embarrassed to let Wang Cuizhen and Zhang Caiping do it.
"Done."
Wang Cuizhen and Zhang Caiping each divided some water and went to clean up.
Li Mumu went to clean up the intestines over and over again.
Until the dirty stuff inside is completely cleaned up, and even the smell becomes lighter.
Only then did Wang Cuizhen and Zhang Caiping put the pigs washed in the pot and boiled them with boiling water, and then took them out and cleaned them again.
Only then did I boil a pot of water again, add the seasonings and marinate together.
After a while, the smell of braised pork with the fragrance of seasoning wafted out from Gu's house again.
"What delicious food is the Gu family cooking?"
"It smells like meat, it's delicious!"
It happened that Gu's father and the Gu brothers came back together, and they also smelled the smell of meat wafting from the house.
"Uncle Gu, is your family rich?" Uncle Ding raised his voice and asked, "Why do you eat meat every day?" ”
Gu's father and the Gu family brothers didn't know what was going on.
I didn't hear my family say that I would eat meat today.
But I smell it, it's so fragrant!
Gu's father ignored them, glanced at his two sons, "Hurry up and go home." ”
The three of them entered the door, and the smell of meat was fragrant.
Father Gu hurriedly asked, "Eat meat tonight?" ”
Gu's mother greeted her with a smile, took over the matter of the guys in their hands, and said, "Didn't Mu Mu want to go to the town to sell food?" Today I went to town and bought some pigs and came back from the water. When you smell the incense, it's actually a marinated pig in the water. ”
"Can this pig be boiled so fragrant?" Father Gu couldn't help but swallow his saliva, "What kind of meat will you eat in the future, how cheap is the pig water." ”
"It's cheap, and I bought it for two cents." Gu's mother explained, "It's just too troublesome to deal with, isn't it because we don't have money?" If you have money, you still have to eat meat. ”
Father Gu and the brothers of the Gu family couldn't wait.
I went to wash my hands and wanted to go to the kitchen to see.
"Don't look at it, go sit down." Gu's mother urged, "You can eat it right away." ”
Only then did the three of them retract their steps towards the kitchen.
Li Mumu cut the braised water of the heart, liver, lungs, intestines and stomach into a plate and served it to the table.
"This ...... Is it a pig in the water? Gu Shangyong looked at the platter, his eyes were straight, "It's so good-looking, it's like a pig in the water!" ”
"Look at your unsightly appearance." Wang Cuizhen didn't admit that she was also so shocked when she saw Li Mumu take these out of the pot before.
"How about a quick taste?" Li Mumu looked at everyone expectantly.
Everyone waited for Gu's father and mother to move the chopsticks.
Gu's father sandwiched a piece of pig's heart, and Gu's mother sandwiched a piece of pig's lung.
"Why are you so tender!" Father Gu couldn't help but speed up his chewing, "It's much more tender than meat, it's better than meat!" ”
"Taste it." Gu's mother said to Gu's father again, "Taste this, what is this, more tender!" There is also a brittle bone in the middle, crunchy. ”
"Dad just ate pig heart, mother, you eat pig lungs." Li Mumu introduced in turn, "This is pork belly, this is small belly, and this is the large intestine." ”
"And this soup is made of pig bones, and the big bones are given by the meat stall owner for free, no money."
"Ouch, this is the large intestine? It tastes a little faint and can't be described, but it doesn't stink, and it's fragrant! Gu Shangyong took a mouthful of oil.
"It's not only fragrant, it's chewy, it's tender, and it's oily when you bite it!" Gu Shangwei said.
"This soup is so delicious, you don't put any meat at all?" Zhang Caiping was surprised.
"No, at most, it's a little bit of minced meat on the big bones." Li Mumu said with a smile, "In fact, the soup stewed from the big bones is more fragrant than the broth." ”
Seeing that everyone was eating fragrantly, Li Mumu asked, "I plan to take these to the town tomorrow to sell." ”
"Yes! It's delicious! If you don't say it, you won't be able to tell that it's going into the water! Wang Cuizhen said.
"I thought, these are easy to sell." Li Mumu explained.
