Mrs. Wang obviously didn't quite believe her words.

"Just for a meal, how can you need so much meat, this has to be a whole pig?"

As she spoke, she tried to keep her old eyes open, and carefully looked at the pork on the carriage, and the more she looked at it, the more it looked like a whole head.

The pig's head and tail, and its limbs and trotters, were still there. In the wooden basin on the side, there are also various kinds of sewer.

Xie Yanzhi knew that the older generation was more frugal, and he was afraid that Li Yuan would not believe what she said, so he helped explain.

"Old lady, I really bought these meats, and we'll cut a pound or two of fat and thin for a while. In addition, Yuan Niang also said that she would use a few catties to make meat sauce and use it for the stall to open tomorrow.

As for the meat and bones, she had to make soup. For the other launch, she wants to marinate it later, and try it out at the stall tomorrow. For the rest, I want to ask her to help me make bacon and sausages. ”

As he spoke, he saw that Mrs. Wang was not unhappy, so he continued: "When it is done, I will take out 10% of her salary." Of course, the meat she wants now is also part of her salary. She really didn't spend money indiscriminately, she didn't have a penny! ”

Wang Can, who had just walked out of the kitchen, and Li Duo, who was chopping wood, looked at him sideways when they heard the words.

As far as they know, Xie Xiucai eats out all year round and doesn't cook at home.

He bought a whole pig, what to do with sausage and bacon, did he dare to fire himself?

Thinking so, neither of them asked.

I even thought in my heart that maybe one day Xie Xiucai would want to eat bacon and sausages, and then take some to find a restaurant to help make it, it's not impossible!

But Mrs. Wang didn't think about it so much, and when she heard that this was the case, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The people on their side are happy to make sausages and bacon in the middle and late winter months, and although it is early winter, the temperature is not far from the winter months of previous years.

If you do it now, you can do it.

"Yuanniang, you rest first. The sausage and bacon to be made will be put on hold first, and when your noodle stall opens tomorrow, the grandmother will bring your aunt and third aunt over to help you marinate first. ”

After the words fell, he looked at Xie Yanzhi again and asked, "Xiucaigong, you can still buy so much meat this afternoon, I don't know if there is anything left?" ”

It's a rare trip to the city, and if there is any, she wants to buy some too.

Without Xie Yanzhi answering, Li Yuan said: "Milk, there are only a few meat stalls in the city, and they are usually sold until noon." It's a coincidence that we went directly to the butcher's house.

As a result, he saw that the family who had ordered meat with him broke the contract and asked someone else to buy it.

The butcher had a premature son in his family, who had to see a doctor and take medicine all the year round, and this pig was smashed in his hand, and he was a big man with red eyes.

Brother Xie was kind-hearted, and he couldn't bear it, so he paid for it. ”

Mrs. Wang's focus was on the person who had set up a pig, and actually broke the contract, so she said angrily: "How can there be such a person, don't you want it, it's not a trick?" It's all afternoon, how can people sell it? ”

Li Yuan sighed: "It's not! The butcher was still the same family as you five hundred years ago, and both were surnamed Wang.

In order to make more money, people went out to collect pigs, not to mention, it was a whole hundred yuan cheaper than the bulk sale. As a result, the man decided to fix two families at the same time and deliberately rectified him. ”

Mrs. Wang lamented that the world was sinister and people's hearts were not ancient, and at the same time, she quickly helped to move the meat that had been cut into strips to the kitchen.

Wang Can, who was on the side, also stepped forward to help, but he didn't dare to let Xie Yanzhi touch it.

Seeing that Xie Yanzhi was about to bend over, she hurriedly shouted: "Xie Xiucai, don't touch." Just go straight into the house, don't touch it! ”

Xie Yanzhi: "......"

Although he knew that he was unlucky, it was actually okay to help carry two pieces of meat?

Li Duo knew that Xie Yanzhi's bad luck was very famous, but he didn't have a certain understanding.

Looking at Wang Can's posture, I felt that she was making a fuss.

This moving things is originally a man's strength, so it won't be good to let Xie Xiucai take some.

He still has one arm hanging on it, and only one hand left, how many strips of meat can he carry?

He thought so, but didn't say anything, just threw down the chopped firewood, got up and got all the meat back to the kitchen, and then continued chopping wood.

On this day's dinner, at the request of Xie Yanzhi, Li Yuan was personally in charge.

Due to the abundance of meat, and Li Yuan had also bought some soybeans before, she made a dish of braised pork, a soybean stewed pig's feet, a refreshing pickled radish and a kelp pork rib soup.

The kelp is called Kunbu in Liuyun County, and Li Yuan bought it in the afternoon at the grocery store in the north and south of the county.

The refreshing radish was made first with the radish brought from the old house.

After all, this dish takes a long time.

Thinly sliced turnips, add salt and sugar to kill water, it takes half an hour.

When she carried everyone on her back, she added various seasonings such as oyster sauce, light soy sauce and dark soy sauce that were secretly found in the space, and then poured hot oil and mixed well, and it took another half an hour to wait.

Fortunately, the stove in Xie Yan's house has three mouths, and they are all connected, so it is quick to do, and it doesn't have to be like only one pot, you need to take turns to come, and you have to wait for a long time.

Since Xie Yanzhi entered the kitchen, he began to look forward to it, looking forward to knowing what the reason for his transfer was as soon as possible.

Who knows, this longing, looking forward to it, finally looking forward to Li Yuan and Wang Can After they shouted to eat, Li Duo suddenly came back from outside, and he was still holding a small jar of wine in his hand.

"Xie Xiucai, good wine with good dishes, take a sip?"

Xie Yanzhi: "......"

As the host, the guests have brought their own drinks, can you say no?

On this day, Xie Yanzhi failed to do so.

He drank a lot of wine, but after drinking the bottom of the two shallow bowls, he was so drunk that he didn't know what day it was, and he didn't even eat a few mouthfuls of meat.

Li Duo didn't expect this to be the case, and looked at Mrs. Wang a little dumbfounded when he saw this.

Mrs. Wang never expected that Xie Yanzhi was almost a cup of poured wine.

Seeing the eldest grandson's eyes asking for help, he pondered for a moment and said: "Duozi, Xiucai's hand is injured and his mobility is inconvenient, and now he is drunk like this, let's go back later, it's not good to leave him alone at home."

In this way, you stay here tonight, Miao Miao Niang, then I will say. Also, Yuan Niang has a pot of freshly stewed radish bone broth, and another is braised in a pot, you look at it, and the fire will be almost extinguished. ”

"How are you going back, it's going to be dark now."

"I'll drive the ox cart, you don't have to worry about going back. You just need to be vigilant at night and don't let the rice and meat be stolen. ”

Combined, that's a lot of money.

With less than three months to go, some people have unclean hands and feet and are trying to steal from other people's homes.

"Okay, pay attention to the milk!"

Since it was still early for dinner, even though the sun had set, because the ox cart was still in the city, Mrs. Wang didn't feel much cold.

When she left the city, as soon as the north wind blew, she felt a chill hit her, and even her cheeks felt a little tingling.

Li Yuan and Wang Can tightened their clothes and subconsciously glanced at each other.

After seeing the worry in the other person's eyes, he turned his eyes away.

Mrs. Wang, who didn't know it, put her hand to her mouth and said, "This year is indeed colder than in previous years, and it is only winter, and it is almost in the middle of the winter of previous years." ”
