Chapter 375 Killing Pigs

Along the way, they listened to Ping An boast several times about how delicious the food cooked by the future young lady was, and they were very happy to see it now. The food looked simple, but it was also very particular.

Just talk about the green vegetables on the table. The price of vegetables in Fucheng is not cheap now. Although the Wu family also has a greenhouse on the Zhuangzi, how can these servants eat these precious things? ?
Not to mention that the rice dumplings are fried golden on a plate, and they can see the bean filling and big meat in the middle at a glance, which makes people's index fingers move.

Gu Yunxuan and Yin Ruilin smelled the smell of fried rice dumplings, although they were a little greedy, but they also knew that they had just eaten for a long time, and they must not be able to eat any more, so they said a few words with Ping An, and went to the yard to watch the bacon went.

At this time, Yin Ziying was reading Wei Lingyi's letter in her room. In the letter, Wei Lingyi greeted her, and said something about the source of this gift, and finally it was his purpose.

Wei Lingyi hoped that she could prepare something for her to bring back safely before the year, and there was no need to prepare anything, just some ordinary etiquette, after all, their direct identities were tied in name now.

After reading the letter, Yin Ziying's expression did not change. She only looked at the letter left and right, and then wrote a letter.

It was natural for her to prepare a gift to send to the Wu family. After all, her current status was Wei Lingyi's fiancée, so she should prepare something.

Yes, a few months ago, Wei Lingyi sent her a letter asking for help, which probably meant the mystery of Wei Lingyi's life experience and his current situation.

At that time, the emperor wanted to let Wei Lingyi Shang Princess, in fact, he wanted to use this to take back the military power in the hands of Zhennan King. Of course Zhennan King and Wei Lingyi did not agree, and Wei Lingyi even said that his family had already arranged for him. married.

Wei Lingyi's life experience is an open secret. He was not raised by the Zhennan King and Zhennan Princess himself, but by the Wu family, a family of merchants.

So since this was a marriage arranged by the Wu family, even if Zhennan Wang and his wife were Wei Lingyi's biological parents, it could not be changed.

After all, nourishing kindness is not less than giving birth to kindness, not to mention that Wei Lingyi was raised so well by the Wu family, even the world can't say bad things about it.

So the emperor naturally couldn't marry the princess to Wei Lingyi, and Wei Lingyi, the betrothed candidate, was not actually someone the Wu family liked, but Wei Lingyi sent a letter to beg her.

I didn't know why at the time, but Yin Ziying agreed with a twitch.So in the past few months, for the winter solstice ceremony and so on, they have to interact with the Wu family to save face.

Thinking of this, Yin Ziying put down the pen in her hand and walked outside.

Outside the door, Ping An and the two coachmen had already finished eating, seeing Yin Ziying coming out, he quickly stood up and went out first.

Yin Ziying understood and hurriedly followed.

In the yard, Gu Yunxian and Gu Yunrui led two little children who were still smoking bacon. Yin Ziying looked at the bacon and turned her head to look at Ping An, "When are you going back? If it is later, then I can bring you some sausages and bacon. Meat back."

Thinking of the sausages and bacon made by Yin Ziying, Ping An swallowed. They had tried Miss Yin's skill in making sausages last year.Not to mention himself, even his own young master likes it very much. If the young master knows that she sent bacon...

After Ping An thought about it, his expression immediately became solemn, "Miss Yin, we can go back later, the young master said that we should visit the shop by the way."

That's enough to wait, Yin Ziying nodded, and said with a smile immediately: "It happens that I don't have enough preparations for the New Year's ceremony here, so you go to patrol the shop first, come back later, and allow me some time to prepare."

Pingan naturally agreed, but before leaving, he still took away the letter written by Yin Ziying, anyway, someone could come to Beijing to deliver the letter anytime.

He has been with Wei Lingyi for a long time, and he knows that in Wei Lingyi's eyes, this letter is much more important than other things.

After Ping An led the people away, Yin Ziying asked Gu Yunxuan and Yin Ruilin to go to the village to invite the old village chief.

Since the New Year's gift is going to be given, it is natural to prepare more. The half-fan pig that is made now looks like a lot, but there is really not much to do.

The two younger ones happily took over the task and went to the old village head's house. After a while, the old village head walked over slowly.

Seeing the bacon being smoked in the yard and the piles of bacon and strings of sausages hanging, he couldn't help squinting his eyes, "Ziying, are you looking for me?"

Yin Ziying wiped her hands and smiled at the old village chief: "Grandpa village chief, do you know of anyone in the village who can buy pigs?"

"What, you want to buy a pig? Do you want to raise it or..."

"Grandfather of the village chief, Ping'an from Wuling's side came here just now, and he said that this year he would give some gifts to both Jingzhong and the Wu family. Our country people didn't know what to give. After thinking about it, I decided to make more smoked Meat and sausage."

That is the pig to be raised. The old village chief nodded in his heart, looked at the water in the yard and said, "You want two pigs, but kill them and make bacon?"

Yin Ziying nodded: "Grandpa, the village chief, please tell them that I will buy it at the market price, and bring it to me after killing it!"

The old village chief nodded with a smile when he heard the words: "Simple, simple, this year's life is better, and there are quite a few families with pigs in the village, so I'll go and ask."

With the presence of the old village chief, the matter of buying pigs was naturally settled quickly.

The two pigs are about 180 catties, which can be considered fat. Even according to the market price during the Chinese New Year, it is only 20 Wen per catty, and they were bought for a total of seven and a half silver.

The pigs are killed with the help of the people in the village, so there is no need to pay wages at all, all you need to do is invite someone to eat a meal, which is considered a reward.

After the two pigs were slaughtered in the yard and the filthy things were taken out, the house of the Yin family became lively, washing and chopping bones.

Since someone was available, Yin Ziying didn't want to work hard to chop the stuffing herself, but watched the person cut the meat into pieces, and then asked the young and strong people in the village to chop the stuffing.

She herself was not idle, and she planned to share some of the pig bones, pig's trotters, pig's offal, etc. with those who came to help.

As for pigs into the water, she personally took out the ones that could be made into casings, and washed the ones that couldn't be made with plant ash and stewed them for everyone to eat.

When the tables were set up in the Yin family's yard and the meal was bustling with excitement, Gao's voice came from outside.

"Oh! Why is it so lively?" Gao Shi just finished speaking, and immediately saw the big pieces of pork in the big basin on the ground, her eyes lit up, "Girl, is this a pig slaughter today?"

Ever since Yin Ruilin came to study, Yin Yueshan and the Gao family have come here often, and the people in the village are very familiar with them. Immediately, someone said: "Brother Yin is here? It just happened to come. Isn't this lady Yin here to kill you?" Pig!"

"Oh, how many pigs are there for so much meat? This can't be made by one pig, can it?"

Gao glanced at the meat in the big basin, and when she saw the pig's trotters in the other big basin, she immediately realized that it must be two pigs, how could one pig have so many trotters?
She looked around, and saw the bacon hanging on the other side of the yard and the shelf set up, and the bacon was still being smoked on it!
Why did this girl cook so much pork this year?Could it be that he wanted to bring her more home?But it was too much, so much meat, even if she took it home, it would have to be made into bacon and put away.
