Cute Beauty’s Romantic Affairs - C64
“Pick a larger one. Even such a small gap in between teeth wouldn’t be enough.”
Before the lady could say anything, she saw Huang Yi standing on the slope and looking towards the pigsty with a piece of dog-tailed grass in his mouth, giggling. The torn and tattered Daoist robe on his body looked like rotten vegetables and he didn’t look like a proper Daoist.
“Your teeth are so wide?” “Such a big piece of pork can’t even be stuffed?” Cheng Huzhong retorted in dissatisfaction.
“Then that’s fine. Listen to your boss.” Huang Yi didn’t argue with him and laughed.
“Boss?” Cheng Huzhong looked at his wife in surprise. “Why did he call you Boss?”
“Pick the pig in your hand, it looks pretty good. As for him, we’ll build him a house down the slope. Let him live down the slope. ”
The lady did not answer his question. Huang Yi twisted his butt and made a face at Cheng Huanzhong, making him choke in anger.
While passing by Huang Yi, the cute girl looked at him indifferently, “If you want to have a place to live, then think of a way to build your own house.”
Huang Yi’s face immediately became depressed.
Cheng watched him gloat, but said nothing. He carried the little pig to the back of the house to slaughter it.
At that time, he was still a single person and hadn’t gotten married yet. As he passed by a village, he found a wild boar and was captured by the villagers as they planned to kill him for his meat. No one dared to kill him, and in the end, it was him who used a sharp knife … The white knife Lin Hong used it to end the wild boar’s life.
Killing a pig wasn’t difficult, what was difficult was killing a pig that had been raised like a treasure for over a month.
“Little pig, if you’re still a pig in your next life, then eat more and eat fatter. Don’t be so unlucky to be caught and eaten at such a young age.”
“Pfft, if he eats too much and grows fat, won’t he be eaten by others sooner or later?”
Unknowingly, Huang Yi had walked behind him and was watching the show. Cheng Huanzhong snorted coldly and directly took care of the squealing little pig with a knife, using the basin filled with salt water to catch the pig. When the blood stopped flowing, he hung the little pig on the tree in the backyard.
Without his daughter’s order, Cheng Huzhong naturally knew that the pig’s internal organs had to be left behind, and this time was no exception. Shortly before noon, a large wooden bowl filled with sliced meat was brought up, along with a pot of internal organs.
This little pig wasn’t very big, but its meat quality was very beautiful. Huang Yi looked like he was about to drool: “Boss, did you eat this for lunch today?”
“What are you thinking about? If you’re going to eat this on the fifth day of the fifth month, then what are you going to eat tomorrow?”
The lady didn’t know why the two of them acted like they were enemies. Once they met, they would be at odds, but it was part of the company’s culture to let subordinates handle relationships. As long as they didn’t cause a scene, the girl wouldn’t take the initiative to interfere.
This time, it was the same. Taking out the pig’s pancreas, the lady was so focused on making the soap that she didn’t even have the mood to bother about the two of them.
In the past, he had a business partner at the mall. His wife would spend her time at home researching some original ecological products, making soap by hand, and often give them to business partners.
Once the lady expressed curiosity about this, and the next day the lady wrote down the method of making handmade soap and sent it to her.
The hand-made soap made by that lady was very precious. It was just that the six pieces of soap with different scents had all used dozens of different expensive Chinese medicinal herbs, each with its own effects.
The lady naturally could not use expensive Chinese medicine to make soap like she had given him. Not to mention if she sold it, in this era, the majority were poor.
She still remembered some of the steps to make the soap, but the lady had used a household machine when she made the soap, so it was not appropriate now. Luckily, the lady had been curious about the soap production and looked through some information, so she knew the most primitive method of making the soap.
He took out the pig’s pancreas and washed it to remove the tainted blood. He tore off the fat on it to find a jar of garlic to grind it into. He even added a bit of sugar in the middle, but there was no soybean powder at home, but there was no more straw wood ash than that. The plant ash played a role of potassium carbonate, which could be used as a substitute for the bean powder.
Autumn Flowers was disgusted watching from the side. Seeing her white pancreas being crushed, then adding the grasses and ashes to turn black, and finally adding the recently plucked leaves, no one knew what she was going to do.
The mistress gave her a task. She cut off the lard and put it in a small pot. After that, she poured the ground pig’s pancreas into the lard, put it in a small basin, covered it with a lid and put it in the warehouse.
The pancreas that was made had to wait for it to take shape before knowing the effects, but the black pot didn’t look good at all. It was unknown if it was because the smell of Ai Ye was not strong enough to suppress the stench of the pig pancreas, causing the lady to feel a little nauseous.
After putting the pancreas into the storage, the lady didn’t care about it anymore. After lunch, she still had to prepare the food she needed for tomorrow. She was extremely busy.
The first was to boil the leaf water, using the boiled leaf water and the bird, the noodles had the fragrance of the leaf green, the pastries were no different from the usual steamed buns, only the color had changed.
Wang Plum Blossom sat in the yard as the chopping board was moved into the yard. She also helped to make some steamed buns with leaves, reminiscing about the past while she did so, “You were looking forward to the 5th May when you were young. Did you forget?” “At that time, your father was still alive and working outside. He came back at the fifth day of the fifth month to buy a jade for you. It took you a month to get it off your neck.”
In her memory, there was a memory of her father, a thin and weak man. Every time he came back, he would lift her high up in the air, while Wang Plum Blossom stood behind him in fear, afraid that her father would throw her down.
The tender lady raised a smile. “I didn’t forget.”
As her days slowly passed by, occasionally, the little girl would think of things that she had never experienced before, but those memories were so familiar that it made her feel like she was living two lifetimes, both of them being her own.
At noon, she would take the pork to make braised pork and hung the rest of the meat in the well. Every day, she would go out and play crazily, but she also knew that the Gu family often came back with many wild vegetables.
However, there were more and more family members and every time she cooked, she would get tired of it. If she could find someone to take care of her cooking, it would be much easier for her.
Despite the complaints, the rice still had to be prepared. Wang Plum Blossom and Chrysanthemum were wrapped in steamed buns in the yard, the lady was cooking in the kitchen, the red-braised meat was stuffy in the small pot, and the lady had cooked a few more vegetables and cold mixed with wild vegetables.
The people here only ate two meals a day. The lovely lady cooked three meals a day and everyone in the family was extremely happy. Besides, the culinary skills used by the pretty lady was not bad. Even if they had less meat, they would still eat happily.
However, when they came here, they would tolerate it even without the chilies. There were not many types of meat, and apart from the chicken and ducks were more common, so it was very rare for anyone to eat pork, not to mention beef and mutton. Even beef was prohibited here, and it was illegal to eat beef.
The lady then thought back to the Water Margin that she had seen before. Wasn’t it about eating meat in big bowls and drinking wine? The first thing you do when you enter a restaurant is 2 taels of beef. In fact, if you go to an ancient restaurant and ask for beef, most people would just treat you like a lunatic.
Cattle were the main means of transportation in this era. They were also a common means of transportation. For an ordinary family, losing a cow was an additional snow. Who would be the one to kill a cow every day if they had nothing to do?
However, it was still possible to raise some sheep. It was best to be the kind that could cut off wool, killing them to eat meat in winter, and also eating mutton hotpot.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was feasible. The cute girl thought that saliva was about to come out of the lamb hotpot, so she quickly put raising the sheep on the agenda.
Ye Xuan still hasn’t returned by noon. The lady left some food in the pot and waited for him to return before eating.
In the past few days, the large bag on Jin Ling’s father’s neck looked a lot smaller, so Jiao Niang guessed that it was because of the kelp soup. However, if he wanted to completely recover, he would probably need some other treatment.
