Chapter 38

Sugar is not expensive, but oiled paper is a little more expensive. After all, it is paper, and it is normal to sell it expensively in ancient times. Sugar costs two cents a catty, while oiled paper costs ten cents a knife.

There are a hundred sheets for one knife, Xu Lingyue first bought two knives, which added up to 22 cash, and then asked for some pepper, peppercorns, and grinders.

Adding up all the bits and pieces together cost 49 Wen.

Xu Lingyue suddenly felt a little pain in his flesh. After all, it was not easy to earn this money. It was not long after he got it, and he spent so much.

After buying everything, they planned to go back.

As they walked towards the gate of the city, they passed a shop selling pork.

Although I had a meat meal yesterday, after seeing the meat, I still swallowed unconsciously.

Seeing the gluttony of the two, Xu Lingyue suggested: "Brother, why don't you buy a catty?"

The Xu family doesn't eat a little bit of meat on weekdays, and only on special days can they eat a bite of meat. If they are not greedy, they will be ghosts.

Hearing this, Xu Hongfu hesitated for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "But Aniang..."

Obviously, he was afraid that he would be blamed by Mrs. Wu for spending money to buy meat on his own initiative.

Xu Lingyue said quickly: "It's okay, just say I want to buy it."

Mrs. Wu is also really a strange person. She is obviously patriarchal, but she loves her daughter in every possible way. The original owner spends money recklessly, Mrs. Wu will not say anything at all, and other people in the family spend money recklessly, she has to say a few words .

Then she said to the butcher, "Boss, here's a catty of pork belly."

The Xu family really needs to improve their food. Look at them one by one, they are either black or yellow, and they are all skinny.

The butcher was a big fat man with a kind appearance. He said angrily, "Okay."

At this moment, she caught a glimpse of some pig intestines, liver and lungs in the bamboo basket beside her, and asked, "Boss, how do you sell those things?"

When Xu Hongfu heard that the younger sister asked the pig to go into the water, he quickly said: "My younger sister, those things are not tasty."

This pig's large intestine is not only dirty, but also very smelly, if it is not really poor, who can't afford to eat, who would buy this thing to eat.

It was only then that Xu Lingyue remembered that ancient people didn't seem to eat this stuff.

But she is really greedy, especially pig large intestine, which is best used for braised in soy sauce, it is fragrant and soft.

The boss saw that the little girl hit it off very well, so he smiled and said: "Little girl, how about this, this pig will send you off as soon as it enters the water."

When he heard that it was a gift, Xu Hongfu on the side instantly breathed a sigh of relief. It would be fine if he didn't spend any money, and he didn't know why the little girl wanted this stinky thing.

Xu Anbao said he didn't understand either.

Since it was a gift, don't give it up for nothing, Xu Lingyue was so happy that she made braised pig intestines when she got back.

She had already started to get hungry, sucking her saliva inadvertently.

"thank you boss."

They were all ignorant, but it was also because of this that she was able to take advantage of it. She had to show them off to prove that the pig intestines were delicious.

The boss handed her the meat and the pair of pigs, and reminded: "Little girl, you can take care of it."

She took it with a smile, and then paid.

The other two looked at the pig into the water with disgust, and pinched their noses, obviously being rushed by this one.

Xu Lingyue didn't dislike it at all, and put the things into the back basket she brought.

Although this pig intestine is delicious, it is troublesome to clean, but as long as it can be eaten, it is worth doing all this.

This time I really want to go back.

But they didn't go back in a bullock cart, they still walked.

They didn't get home until noon.

As soon as Wu Shi saw her, she covered her mouth and nose in disgust, took a step back, and asked with some doubts: "What's this smell, baby, why does your body stink?"

After hearing what she said, Xu Lingyue sniffed her body seriously, and then said, "No!"

How did she know that it was the stench of the pig's sewage that had already stained her body.

Wu expressed her disgust and stayed away.

Seeing this, Xu Hongfu guessed: "Little sister, could it be the smell of pigs that Aunt is talking about?"

After hearing this, Xu Lingyue also felt that it made sense, after all, this thing really stinks.

The Wu family next to him was a little shocked when he heard that it was a pig into the water, and quickly said: "My dear, why did you get that thing back, this thing is not fun to eat."

Why is her cute baby so stupid? Dogs wouldn't even eat that stuff.

Seeing that one or two of them said that, Xu Lingyue said arrogantly: "Mother, just wait and see, and see your daughter show you something."

When they heard that she was going to cook, they were startled.

They haven't forgotten that the last time she said she would cook them a meal, but all the black food was served. In order not to make her lose face, Mrs. Wu reluctantly took a bite. She will never taste that taste. will not forget.

In order not to eat that stuff again, Mrs. Wu quickly took over the job and said to her: "Baby, why don't you come here, Mommy."

Xu Lingyue hesitated for a moment, obviously not quite understanding why their reaction was so great.

She didn't believe Mrs. Wu could make pig intestines, so she said, "Mother, let me do it myself."

Wu said resolutely, "No."

Xu Lingyue was even more puzzled, could it be that the original owner's cooking skills were poor, why did they all seem to see something scary.

After a while, Mrs. Wu realized that what she said was too firm, so she said softly: "Baby, what mother means is that you guide me by the side, and I will operate it."

After listening to Wu's explanation, Xu Lingyue finally hesitated for a while, it's not impossible, it happened that she didn't want to touch the pig's large intestine either.

Xu Lingyue said with a smile: "Then Auntie, let's wash the pig intestines now."

When she heard that she still wanted to make pig intestines, Wu shi was reluctant, but she had said everything, so she nodded and agreed.

Xu Hongfu on the side said that even if this thing burnt out, he would definitely not take a bite.

Xu Lingyue suddenly remembered, and said, "By the way, I have to bring some flour and salt."

Wu quickly said to get it by herself.

She had no choice but to wait obediently at the door.

After a while, Mrs. Wu finally came back, and the two happily walked towards the river.

At this time, there were still people washing clothes by the river, and Wu suddenly felt a little ashamed. If they saw him coming with pig intestines, he would not be laughed at.

Wu Shi deliberately picked a corner and said to her: "Baby, just wash here."

It takes time to wash this thing, and it must be washed several times to thoroughly clean it.

At this moment, Wu Shi suddenly remembered, and asked a little puzzled: "By the way, baby, what are these flour and salt used for?"
