The koi wife dressed as the male protagonist of the imperial examination

Chapter 64 Cross the river and demolish the bridge
After the twentieth of the twelfth lunar month, some people in the village began to kill pigs.

And the old Li's family is also calculating, see which day is suitable to invite the butcher to kill the pig, and eat a sliced ​​pig soup by the way.

This time, old man Li and mother Li were very happy, planning how to divide the pig after it was killed.

For example, the offshoots of Li's family and elders, Li's mother's natal family, etc., must send some meat to them.

The oldest and second's Yue family is also indispensable, and the third child is not only the Yue family, but also the master of his academy.

Those who celebrate the New Year should give gifts to their masters, and even the masters who Sanlang used to study in the town should also give some New Year gifts.

It cannot be said that he forgot his former teacher when he went to the county to study. After being selected as a scholar, reputation is more important.

"Fortunately, Sanlang did well in the exam, otherwise our family would not be able to kill pigs."

In the past years, instead of selling pigs directly to butchers, they were only willing to buy two catties of meat for the Chinese New Year when they got money.

Thinking that every year in the future, she would be able to come back from the butcher to kill pigs, and eat many meals of pork with the children, Shi's old face blossomed with joy.

On the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, Li Dalang went to invite a butcher.

The butcher only kills pigs and bleeds them, and there are many other jobs. Although Li Sanlang is weak and a gentleman, he can't do it.

Fortunately, isn't there Li Dalang Li Erlang?
After washing and binding the fat pig bundles, the butcher stabbed them down and saw the blood.

Mrs. Shi took the pig's blood in a basin, and after taking one basin, Mrs. Li quickly changed another basin and handed it over.

This pig's blood is coagulated and used for cooking, which is also delicious.

After the pig's blood is released, it's not just over. You still need to scald the pig's skin and shave the pig's hair.

These self-owned Li Dalang and Li Erlang brought their sons to help. The butchers mainly cut up the pork, and the old Li's family also prepared a table of rice for slaughtering pigs.

Busy back and forth, the whole morning has passed.

Fang Qingqing was quite curious. The original owner was young when he was at home, and she would not let her watch the pig slaughter.

But Fang had a lot of family members, and it was not her turn to do things like Zhang Luo killing pigs and rice. It was the first time she participated in such a thing.

Uh, I just used a pair of eyes to participate and watched the whole process.

Naturally, there is no need for the third daughter-in-law to do anything, Shi Shi is afraid that her children will be so frightened.

Speaking of which, in the past few years, it was also the first time that Shi's made such a pig-killing meal.

In the past, the butcher was directly asked to take away the big fat pigs at home. Why is there so much trouble?

If so, Li's mother is also happy, this person only hopes that the family will be more lively when he gets older.

Stir-fry twice-cooked pork in a large pot, stew a pig's trotter in bone soup, and stir-fry pork liver with blood and stir-fry a piece of meat with pickles at home.

With these few meat dishes and two more vegetarian dishes, it would be enough to add up to eight bowls of dishes.

When Saburo got married before, the wedding banquet was also organized by the Shi family, and it was not as rich as this one.

Of course, it wasn't just thinking about it in his heart, Shi Shi also discussed it with his old man and asked him if it was right.

Of course, old man Li had no objection, he just asked her to pick some good pigs and put them aside, and let the butcher take them away after the pig soup was finished.

This is also a common practice, and the pigs are usually given to the butcher for him to take away.

"We keep the pork suet for ourselves. After refining the lard, you can still eat the oil residue. Cut two knives and ask Saburo to send it to his master in the academy and the town before."

At any rate, they took the trouble to teach Saburo that he should not be the one who crosses rivers and demolishes bridges.

If Sanlang went to study in the county now and forgot about his former master, then he would be scolded by poking his spine.

Even if Shi felt that it was his own ability that Sanlang did well in the exam, otherwise there were so many students in the school in the town, how could he be the only scholar this time?
But Shi also understands that scholars are most concerned about respecting teachers, and what the old man said is correct.

The old couple talked about it, and then followed old man Li and said: "There is also a piece of good meat from your mother's house."

This time, Shi Shi was really stunned.

His eyes were a little hot, but he said: "My parents are too old to eat meat, so forget it..."

Old man Li shook his head, "In the past, even if the family had spare money, they would search and search for Saburo's study. At any rate, he is more successful now, that is also his natal family, and it is appropriate to be filial."

In fact, after a pig is processed, there is not much good meat. If you divide a piece here and there, there is not much left for your own.

Even so, the corners of Shi Shi's mouth were upturned all day long, and he felt a headache.

It was her who made the dishes |color|, but it was Mrs. Li who actually cooked.

The same food is made in the same way, and Mrs. Li has such an ability. She makes dishes that are much more delicious than other people's fried dishes.

The fat and thin pork belly was cut into thin slices, and the large iron pan was heated up, and the cut pork was first put in it to refine the oil.

Meat | Color | Slightly yellow is the best if it is not burnt yet. Put the onion, ginger, garlic and chili into the oil in the pan and stir-fry.

Then add pickled vegetables, the fried meat is so fragrant.

After eating the planed pork soup, Li Sanlang first went to give a new year gift to the teacher from the previous school.

As for his current wife in the academy, because he lives in the county town and the journey is far away, Li Sanlang plans to get up early tomorrow morning and go to the city to see him off.

After delivering the New Year gift, and having a good chat with Mr. Li Sanlang, it was a bit late when Li Sanlang returned to Hongqiao Village.

And just at this time, Luo Xiaohua, who had a quarrel with her family and ran out, happened to see the talented man who seemed to be coming back from outside?

She didn't want to be ruined like this for the rest of her life, and told her mother repeatedly that she didn't want to marry.

Of course Luo Xiaohua's mother quit, and the dowry was all from the man, but because it was almost Chinese New Year and she didn't want to beat and scold the child, she just ignored it.

As a result, Luo Xiaohua became even more angry, feeling that the parents disrespected her human rights and did not respect her at all.

Regardless of the cold and windy weather outside, he ran out of the house directly.

Luo Xiaohua felt that her luck was good, so she tidied up her appearance and walked directly towards Xiucai Lang.

"Brother Sanlang." Luo Xiaohua yelled, that charming girl.

Li Sanlang was walking with his head buried, thinking that he would be able to get home before dark, when he suddenly heard this voice.

Recently, I often hear my daughter-in-law calling him that way, but his voice is serious, and every time I hear Li Sanlang, there is always a burst of warmth in my heart.

Unlike this little lady who came out of nowhere, who also called him that way, why did Li Sanlang get goose bumps all over his body?

Li Sanlang didn't stop, and even accelerated his pace involuntarily.

Seeing Xiucai Lang walking faster and faster, Luo Xiaohua became anxious, trotting after him without hesitation.

But in his mouth he said: "Brother Sanlang, I call you, why don't you answer me?"
