Nongmen shrew: Farming with cubs is spoiled by rough men

Chapter 10 Afterwards, the two of you and your maiden name

Clean the suet and cut it into small pieces. For intestinal oil, remove all the small bumps on it. The small bumps are all lymph nodes and cannot be eaten.

After everything is cut, put it directly into the pot, add a ladle of water and start cooking.

Although he is a student of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, because he often farms and cultivates outside, his ability to survive is better than ordinary people, and he knows more than ordinary youths.

In addition, he lived in the countryside since he was a child, so he is familiar with it, and the oil refining business is also at his fingertips.

Add a ladle of water and then boil the lard, the color of the refined lard is whiter, especially when adding some salt and popping a few soybean peppers, it will be more fragrant.

As time went by, the pigs in the pot began to move.

First it is bubbling, and finally the water vapor is fried to dryness, and then it is yellow and bright oil.

At this time, the smell coming out of the pot is the most fragrant, and the two little guys who were playing in the yard also smelled the fragrance. , and ran over.

Xiaotao raised her neck and asked, "Mother, are you cooking meat? It smells so good..."

Li Cheng didn't say anything, but he was also muttering in his heart.

Qin Zhiyi was sitting on the stool to light the fire, now he hugged Xiaotao into his arms, and said to her: "Mother is cooking oil, put the boiled oil into a jar, it will be used for cooking, it tastes delicious Fragrant."

After hearing this, Xiaotao just smiled at her.

Li Cheng was still observing silently from the side as usual.

Qin Zhiyi suddenly remembered, and said to the brothers and sisters: "From now on, you two will be named Qin together with me. From now on, you two are just mother's children."

Hearing this, Li Cheng was taken aback for a moment, and then asked her cheerfully: "Mother, then I will be called Qin Cheng from now on?"

Qin Zhiyi nodded vigorously, and Xiaotao said in a childish voice, "Then my name is Qin Tao. Aniang, I like this name, and I like the same surname as Aniang."

After saying this, Xiaotao stood up and threw herself into her brother's arms, with her big eyes twinkling, she smiled at her brother and said, "Brother, are you happy? From now on, we will be the same as mother, from Qinjiazhuang."

Dabao, who was always serious, also smiled at this time, and said to Erni: "Well, brother is happy."

She could tell that the two little guys were really happy.

Ten catties of pigs were thrown into the water, and Qin Zhiyi didn't finish cooking until dark.

When a catty of pig is put into the water, lard suet can be boiled for about six or seven taels, and sausage oil is a little less, but it can also be boiled for five or six taels.

In the end, the refined lard just filled two pots.

Qin Zhiyi thought about it, the older brothers put in so much effort, one can of lard was kept for himself, and the other can was given to the older brothers.

They are all people who do hard work, and they work hard when they have enough oil and water.

In addition, the oil residue is also a good thing. When there is no meat to eat, the oil residue is also a delicious meal whether it is used to make dumplings, steamed buns, or fried cakes.

She also divided most of the oil residue, and planned to send them to her mother's house tomorrow.

Seeing that the two little guys were almost drooling from the smell of lard, she squeezed the warm oil residue and stuffed them into their mouths one by one.

A Niang stuffed a mouthful of the deep-fried peach, she was stunned for a moment, and then began to chew.

The oil residue is basically condensed to dry the oil, so that it will not be burnt to bitterness, and salt is added in it, so it tastes not much different from crispy pork belly.

So I haven't eaten such a meaty peach for a few days, and when I bite into it, it is crunchy, and the smell of meat overflows in my mouth instantly.

Dabao also chewed, but compared to Xiaotao, the surprised expression on his face was much smaller.

Seeing the delicious food of the two little guys, Qin Zhiyi smiled and asked them: "How is it? Is this food delicious?"

Xiaotao nodded vigorously, opened her mouth wide and said, "Mother, I want to eat another piece, just the last one!"

Qin Zhiyi smiled, and stuffed another piece into the mouth of the two little guys.

Because she had just finished eating and it was cold, she didn't dare to feed them too much greasy food.

After feeding them two pieces in succession, Qin Zhiyi put away the oil residue.

"Let's eat a little bit of this today, and later, Auntie will use these things to make steamed buns and dumplings for you to eat."

When Xiaotao heard this, her big black eyes were full of sparkle.

At night, with the two little ones lying on the soft and warm quilt, Qin Zhiyi's whole body and mind felt relaxed.

After working so hard for so many days, it finally came to an end.

When I woke up the next day, it was already dawn.

After all, it was almost winter, and even the repaired thatched cottage still felt a bit leaky.

She tucked the quilts for the two little ones, lest they be frozen.

Then he got up and brushed his teeth with a willow stick, washed his face briefly, and was ready to cook.

Breakfast is relatively simple.

She planned to cook some porridge, and yesterday she promised to make oil cakes for the two children, so after the porridge was boiled in the pot, she started kneading the noodles.

The adobe dragged outside dries slowly, and everything in the yard is neatly packed to dry.

Now that the kitchen is still outside, it is chilly for her to cook.

In fact, she is quite satisfied with the place she lives in.

There is a mountain behind, and the open space at the foot of the mountain has been fenced by the two brothers, and they will raise some chickens in the spring.

It is close to the mountain and convenient for chopping firewood.

The two children are young, and they are worried about leaving them at home, so it is also good for the place where the firewood is cut to be close.

In addition, she also wants to raise a flock of chickens, and the free-range chickens will run around. If it is in a place with many people in the village, I am afraid that if you are not careful, you will eat other people’s vegetable gardens, but if you live in this place, you can eat them in the morning. The chickens are placed on the mountain and called back at night to avoid harming other people's crops.

Free-range chickens grow faster than those raised in pens, can eat bugs outside, and are rich in nutrition.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhiyi was also full of longing.

Now I will continue to knead the dough by hand. She has made quite a lot of dough. She plans to take some to the neighbors when she is done.

The Qin family lived in the village, and in the final analysis, it was a family.

Furthermore, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and it is more important to have a good relationship with your neighbors.

After kneading the dough, roll it thin with a rolling pin, spread it flat, sprinkle a layer of chopped oil residue on top, then sprinkle a layer of salt, and finally sprinkle a layer of alfalfa.

When Alfalfa moved here, Qin Zhiyi's mother also gave her a small packet.

After sprinkling, it smells fragrant before it is cooked.

Roll up the cake again, cut it into three sections and roll it into pancake again. After the porridge is cooked, it starts to be baked.

Cooking porridge in an iron pot is much faster than ordinary pots.

After the porridge is cooked, scoop it directly into the pot, scrub the pot casually, put lard on it, and start preparing to make pancakes.

Because she didn't roll it very thick, so the oil cakes that are not too golden and crispy are ready.

When the last one was done, the siblings had already woken up.

Erni woke up a little dazed, stood at the door, rubbed her eyes and looked out.

When she saw Qin Zhiyi, she immediately smiled like a flower again.

Seeing the two children wake up, Qin Zhiyi took wicker sticks as usual and asked them to brush their teeth and rinse their mouths. By the time they cleaned up, she had already filled out the meals and put them on the table.

Instructing the siblings to sit down and eat first, Qin Zhiyi put the extra two oil cakes into the basket, covered them with a cloth, and then went to the neighbor's house.

There are two nearest neighbors, the one on the left is my cousin, who has three children, two girls and one boy.

Seeing her walking this way early in the morning, the cousin sister-in-law asked casually, "Ah Yi, where are you going this early in the morning?"
