Da Song a knife

Chapter 267
As soon as she woke up on New Year's Eve, Yang called all the children over, gave them careful instructions, and told them some things they must not say today.

However, Zhang Sijiu discovered a strange thing.

That's what I didn't want to say at first, and I couldn't even remember these words, but Yang said it like this...not only remembered, but also wanted to say it.

Xiao Song and Xiao Bai obviously felt the same way, they both covered their mouths, their expressions were exactly the same, and they were rolling their eyes.

After all, Zhaoyin is a big boy, and he is also very proficient in this matter, so he promised that he would never say it when he opened his mouth.He will also supervise Zhang Sijiu and the others.

Only then was Yang satisfied to let them leave.

After breakfast, Mrs. Xu directed Zhang Xiaoshan to take out the dried cured pig's head and the piece of bacon with the pig's buttocks and the tip of the tail, then carefully brushed the surface with a bamboo brush, and put them into a pot filled with water cook in.

There is also a piece of pork belly with ribs and a piece of sausage to be cooked together. The piece of meat is from Pangdun's body. It is fat and long. Xiaosong struggled to carry it and almost dragged it to the ground.Holding the sausage, Xiaobai tried his best to breastfeed, his cheeks were all exerting force.

Zhang Sijiu washed the meat and sausages in hot water, and put them into the pot to cook together.

Besides that, stewed chicken and duck are also served.

There are several chickens, one is whole and is ready to be boiled for the ancestors, another is chopped into pieces and is ready to be stewed, another is braised in soy sauce, and the other is served cold.

In addition, there is a duck, and the duck will be made into braised duck, which will be cut into pieces and eaten as a cold dish.

After helping Mrs. Xu to wash and put all the meat into the pot, Mrs. Xu asked Zhang Sijiu to dig some pork butts to eat.

Of course, pig's butt is a dialect, which describes a kind of wild vegetable whose leaves are a bit like a pig's butt.

And the scientific name of this wild vegetable is called Houttuynia cordata.

Houttuynia cordata: pungent in taste, cold in nature, returns to the lung meridian.It can clear heat and detoxify, reduce swelling and treat sores, diuresis and dehumidification, clear heat and stop dysentery, invigorate the stomach and eliminate food, and treat lung abscesses caused by excess heat, heat toxins, damp pathogens, disease heat, sores and swelling, hemorrhoids, blood in the stool, spleen and stomach heat accumulation, etc. .Modern pharmacological experiments show that this product has antibacterial, antiviral, improving immunity, diuretic and other effects.

This is a common herb.And it's very practical.

Of course, it is still a herb that can be eaten as a dish.

This herb has a unique flavor.Some say it smells like fish, others say it doesn't.

Anyway, people who have smelled it will never forget this special smell.

Houttuynia cordata is very common here, and some people are too lazy to look for it everywhere, and they will simply plant a little in the shady and cool place in front of the house and behind the house where there is no way to grow vegetables-one is enough, and it will grow into a large area in less than two years .

Behind Zhang Sijiu's house, there is a large area not far from the bamboo forest.

People who love to eat this food love it, and those who don't like it will feel disgusted by the smell.

Zhang Sijiu carried a small basket and a small hoe, and went straight to that place.

Xiaosong and Xiaobai still wanted to go with them, so Zhang Sijiu took them along.But they are absolutely not allowed to play in the mud and get their clothes dirty.

When he arrived at the place, Zhang Sijiu found a place with a few sparse leaves of Houttuynia cordata, and started digging without saying a word.

Houttuynia cordata these days mainly eat the tender stems that have not yet sprouted from the ground.

As soon as the mud is turned over, you can see dense, white, tender and pink Houttuynia cordata tender stems.

Xiaobai cheered, clapped his palms and jumped: "A lot, a lot!"

Xiao Song consciously rolled up his sleeves and Lao Gao said, "I'll pick it up."

Seeing that he was obedient, Zhang Sijiu asked him to pick it off, and turned over two big hunks of mud by himself.

With just a few hoes, Zhang Sijiu and Xiao Song spent a long time picking them.Almost the bottom of the basket is covered.

Zhang Sijiu shook his head, estimated the amount, and then withdrew: "Okay, enough to eat."

After washing at the edge of the ditch, Xiao Song couldn't wait to choose two super fat ones, stuffed one into his mouth and the other into Xiao Bai's mouth, and the two of them chewed and ate.

Zhang Sijiu didn't even have time to stop him: he dared to eat the vegetables washed in raw water outside!Don't be afraid of worms!

While chewing, Xiaosong looked at Zhang Sijiu with a wicked smile, and tried to persuade her: "Sister, try it. It's delicious."

Zhang Sijiu smiled softly: "Delicious is delicious, I'll wait a bit, the water outside is not clean, there may be eggs laid by insects in it, and then you eat it in your stomach, and the insects will slowly settle in your stomach It grows so big that eventually you can't hold it in your stomach, and they come out of your mouth and other holes in your body—”

As she was talking, she herself felt a little chilled thinking about the scene, and couldn't help rubbing her arms, feeling that the goosebumps couldn't be suppressed no matter what.

But Xiaosong and Xiaobai were already frightened to the point of froze.

Xiaobai also spat out the Houttuynia cordata in his mouth in a "peh pee pee".

But Xiaosong pretended to be calm, "Sister must be lying to me—"

"Oh, Doctor Cheng told me this. He said he saw it with his own eyes." Zhang Sijiu lied without drafting, let alone blinking.

Finally, Xiao Song couldn't keep his composure anymore, and followed Xiao Bai to "peh pee pee".

When the vomit was finished, Xiao Song was still very anxious: "Sis, we all vomited, so there won't be any bugs?"

He was obviously frightened, and his face turned pale.

Zhang Sijiu accepted it when he saw it: "Well, there probably won't be any. If there is, I'll prescribe medicine for you. Although it doesn't taste good, it can kill insects. It's just that I won't keep an eye on you in the future. -"

Xiao Song did not hesitate: "I will never eat it again!"

Xiao Bai also shook his head like a rattle.

Zhang Sijiu nodded to express his satisfaction: Today's education seems to be very successful.The memories they left behind are also very deep.

However, raw Houttuynia cordata has the best flavor.

So after Zhang Sijiu came home, he added some salt to the well water and soaked it for a while——in this case, although it can't be said that the effect is 100%, it still has an effect.

In the end, the freshly washed Houttuynia cordata stems are white, plump and tender, as if carved out of some beautiful jade. It makes people feel that this is not a dish, and makes people reluctant to eat it.

However, this reluctance only exists before the material is poured.

When the adjusted sauce is poured on it, the artwork becomes an attractive dish in an instant.

After stirring a few times with chopsticks, Mrs. Xu picked up one: "Jiu Niang taste it to see if it tastes good enough."

Zhang Sijiu snatched it away in one bite, and then "crunched" and began to chew.I have to say that it is really crispy and tender, and the mouth is full of the special aroma of Houttuynia cordata.The taste of the seasoning is perfectly combined with the flavor of Houttuynia cordata itself. It is refreshing and rich in taste, which makes people want to eat it.

Zhang Sijiu said: "I can eat half a plate. Second Aunt, do you want to dig tomorrow?"

　In the past, when pigs were slaughtered every year, the heads and tails of the pigs were kept for [-] nights.It was really old-fashioned back then.
