Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 258 Chapter 250 Seventh: Warmth
Every family in Songshan Village has no land, and they rely on their own specialties to make a living, barely making ends meet.

It is inevitable to make glutinous rice balls and noodles during the Chinese New Year, but it is impossible to smoke bacon every year.

Just like the Song family, in Song Qiu's memory, their family hadn't smoked bacon for many years.

During the Chinese New Year, the grandparents and grandchildren will have New Year’s Eve dinner, and the preparation is simple, just kill a chicken, cook a fish, and cook a bowl of meat.

No more, no more.

Like the year when her mother passed away, the family owed debts, and that New Year was a bitter one. Her uncle brought a piece of meat and a fish, and Grandma Deng brought glutinous rice balls and glutinous rice cakes.

But this year is different.

Their family wants to kill the New Year pig.

Although it was a pig that year, it was not as fat as other pigs.

Song Qiu narrowed his eyes with a smile, and did not forget to tell her grandma, while Butcher Wang is here, hurry up and make an appointment with him. At the end of this year, the butcher's business is very busy, and there are many pigs for him to kill. If you don't say it in advance.I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for a day.

Old Yuan knew it too, so he said don't worry at the moment, squeezed up when he had time, and said that he was going to ask Butcher Wang to kill the New Year's pig.

When Wang Tuhu heard this, he naturally responded, saying that he would definitely save his life for the old Yuan.

On the other hand, Mrs. Wang listened and said: "Your pig will still be young if you feed it for a month? Is it really going to be killed? It doesn't have much meat."

"It's not too big, so it's just for celebration. I'll slaughter the pigs in the spring of next year, and I'll kill the fat pigs after the Chinese New Year!" Old Yuan said with a smile.

Mrs. Wang didn't say anything else, that's right, it's not bad for a festive occasion.

Butchering pigs at home is completely different from buying meat.

Fifty catties of meat, pig's knuckles, and a goat and rabbit were too much for Song Qiu, his grandparents, and his grandson to take away. With a big wave of his hand, Wang Orion asked his two sons to help deliver them to Song Qiu's door.

They were sent all the way to the inn. Before it was dark, Song Qiu called Yang Dalian and others to help him, and dealt with the goats and rabbits by the river bank.

The three pheasants are still alive and can be kept and killed.

For dinner, I made wild pork and ate it, and I also made a portion for the guests. When Yuan Hua and his wife returned home, the old Yuan Shi cut a large piece for them to take away, and asked them to take it back with them. The Yuan family all eat something fresh.

Song Qiu dropped the wild boar in the water tank and froze it. It won't go bad in this weather, and it will be sold out in a few days.

As for the four pig's feet, there is still a confinement child living in the inn, which is easy to deal with.

As for the pig belly, the pork belly and large intestine can be fried and sold. Song Qiu only processed the small intestine of the pig, dried it aside, and saved it for later use.

The clean meat from that sheep is only two or three catties, and it can be sold for a lot of vegetables.

She will get the lamb chops tomorrow.

Goat bones and goat hooves, Song Qiu planned to use them to make a big pot of soup, put some juicy radishes fresh from the field, stew them all night, and drink the soup at home tomorrow, it will be very nourishing.

In addition, Song Qiu plans to make haggis soup, which will be sold at the tea shed tomorrow. It will be hot, and passers-by will come to serve a bowl, which is more comfortable than drinking porridge.

Just do it, Xiaozao started the fire, and simmered mutton bone soup.

On the other side, put the haggis in hot water and rinse it with cold water.

Change the water in the pot, put in the haggis and bring to a boil.

While cooking, drain off the froth with a spoon until the froth disappears and the soup is clear, add two slices of ginger, a handful of shallots, use white wine if there is no cooking wine, put a spoonful of white wine, and simmer on a small stove fire boil.

The longer the cooking time, the whiter and thicker the soup will be, and the taste will really come out.

Such a small stove, with enough water, can be boiled until Mrs. Wang gets up tomorrow.

The remaining fire in the stove will not dry the bottom of the pot.

Put it in the teahouse for sale tomorrow, add chopped green onion, coriander, salt, vinegar, etc. according to personal preference, and a bowl of thick and fragrant soup will be fine.

There was a pot sitting in the stove, Song Qiu still told Wang to wake up at night and take care of it at any time.

Then I washed my hands, took off my apron, and went home with the old Yuan family.

Old Deng also cut two catties of wild pork today, kept one catty, and only fried one catty tonight. Zhang Hugua has worked hard these days, and old Deng can let him eat a few more pieces.

It's just that at the dinner table, watching Zhang Zaohua eat meat with meat, this guy stopped staring at her and robbed her, and felt very comforted.

Not much to talk about, but she seems to be getting more down-to-earth. After all, her blood is also flowing on her body. Without that old bastard intervening, it's good to be able to change it!

The meat was so delicious that a few people could finish a catty, but Mrs. Deng still saved half a bowl, and when Zhang Lihua came back, he called her into the upper room.

Old Deng was afraid of the cold, so before the winter moon, he had already sat on the brazier to warm up the fire, using the charcoal that was sealed and cooled from the firewood burned during cooking.

Burn it out and bake it very hot.

Half a bowl of wild pork meat was sitting on the brazier to warm it up. Zhang Lihua went in and called for milk, and old Deng told her to sit down and eat wild pork meat with a smile.

Seeing the half bowl of pork, Zhang Lihua wanted to say that she had already eaten wild pork, but when she saw her smiling at her and handing her the chopsticks in the same way, she took the bowl and chopsticks with a smile, and began to eat happily.

"Is it stewed with milk? It tastes delicious!"

Ms. Miao was sitting across from her with Shi Dan'er in her arms, and then she answered, "You can taste the food with your mouth, but it's your stewed milk? It's so delicious, I even drank two more bowls of soup!"

Old Deng smiled and didn't say a word, just told Zhang Lihua to eat quickly and finished eating.

Zhang Lihua smiled back, as if she was so happy.

If she had known that grandpa would treat her so well if she was paralyzed, then she should have hoped that grandpa would be paralyzed.

She likes her grandma now, so she looks like her grandma!
Miao watched silently, and her heart had changed from being surprised a few days ago to being normal.

Since the second elder brother came back last time, the mother-in-law suddenly wanted to kill the chicken and cook herself, she felt strange.

Later, the father-in-law was paralyzed, and the second brother was scolded away. She could feel the smell when she watched from the side.

Look at the affectionateness of this pair of pear blossoms, which has never been seen before.

She didn't mean to be jealous, the mother-in-law is also so kind to her children.

It was only then that I realized that my mother-in-law was just pretending earlier!

She just said, in this world, how can there be an elder who doesn't love his children and grandchildren?

Now that she understands it, she has nothing but admiration for this mother-in-law in her heart.

It's not easy for the mother-in-law, even though she entered the door late, she can see it clearly. Although the father-in-law seems to be good to the mother-in-law, he seldom listens to the opinion of the mother-in-law.

Just look at the big and third rooms, when did you come back and treat your mother-in-law respectfully?

Isn't it just a matter of father-in-law's words?
At this moment, how can the mother-in-law dare to treat the second room well with a bowl of water?

I'm afraid it's okay here, but I'm not sure what to think about it, but it's not good for the second room.

Now that the father-in-law is paralyzed, and the eldest and third housekeepers are not coming back, it seems that the mother-in-law doesn't have to pretend anymore.

In fact, Mrs. Miao thought more. She watched at home every day, and her father-in-law suddenly became paralyzed.

But she planned to please her mother-in-law, so naturally she would not reveal this conjecture.

In addition, the man looks decent now, and life is promising every day, so she doesn't want to mess with Maozi.

It's good that the eldest and the third don't come back forever.
