The powerful minister favors the small farmer's wife alone

Chapter 118 Shooting yourself in the foot

All afternoon, Su Xiaoye and Xu Zhixiang were watching the pot in the kitchen, and Su Xiaoye cooked roast chicken and stewed duck by herself according to the recipe.

These chickens and ducks are all raised on the farm, slaughtered and depilated in the processing workshop, and they are exactly the same in size and catty.Asking Xiao Changan to sell it is also to improve the lives of the people.

In addition to chickens and ducks, there are also pork and mutton sold a lot. Su Xiaoye originally wanted to sell beef, but the Daze court strictly forbids the slaughter of farm cattle, unless the cattle are too old to work, or they are injured or sick. Only when the government issues a document can they kill and sell meat. Usually, if someone dares to sell beef, they will be imprisoned.

In order to avoid trouble, Su Xiaoye didn't bring out the beef, but ate it secretly a few times at home.

At this time, the chicken is boiled in one pot, and the duck is marinated in another pot. There is no question of which one is bigger and whose one is smaller, and how to distribute it.

And if there are two chickens raised by oneself, it will be easier to recognize. Among the fat chickens, the two thinnest and driest chickens belong to those two chickens, just make a separate mark.

The chicken was placed in a big pot, and the chicken soup was bubbling and bubbling. The aroma wafted far from the yard, and there were always people walking around outside the yard.

The family is reluctant to spend money to buy it, so it will satisfy their greed when they smell it.

In winter, the days are short, and the chickens and ducks are ready, and it is already dark. As soon as Su Ling greeted them in the village, they all came over with basins.

Su Xiaoye delivered the chicken and duck according to the amount on the note, and brought back the soup for the chicken and duck to these people. This soup is a good soup, good for stews and bibimbap.

Li Sanpang took his own chicken, and looked at other chickens one by one. He always felt that they were smaller than when he sent them over. "Little Yezi, this chicken is right, right? It was much bigger when I sent it over."

Someone sneered after hearing this, "Third Aunt, look at what you said, you bought two catties of meat, and it didn't grow as big after being cooked. Could it be that your chicken in the past was as big as it was when it was cooked?" ?”

Hearing a mocking laugh from someone nearby, Li Sanpang was not annoyed, he just said: "Then who knows? My family has never done this before. Who knows if it is cooked well, it will be small, or it was taken by someone wrong." .”

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Su Xiaoye meaningfully.

Su Xiaoye was talking to others about how to eat those chicken soups. After hearing Li Sanpang's words, she walked over with a smile, "Third Aunt, maybe I took the wrong one, so I'll exchange it for you."

After finishing speaking, he took the roast chicken back from the basin that Li Sanpang brought.

Li Sanpang immediately said loudly: "Look, I said I took it wrong."

Su Xiaoye didn't say a word, and went back to the kitchen with the chicken, took out a frozen raw chicken, and threw it into Li Sanpang's basin, "Here, third aunt, this is the chicken you brought. I didn’t cook the whole pot, so you just take it home and cook it yourself, save me and I replaced your chicken.”

Li Sanpang was stunned for a moment, "Little Yezi, what my aunt wants is cooked ones, why do you give me back raw ones?"

Su Xiaoye smiled softly, "Then what can I do? The third aunt said that I exchanged the small chicken for your big chicken, so I will give you back a big chicken. As for helping aunt to cook the chicken, It's all your wish and I don't want to help you now."

After finishing speaking, Su Xiaoye went to share the chicken soup with everyone.

Li Sanpang stood there and got angry. She didn't mean to make it difficult for Su Xiaoye to say that she took advantage of her. It's just that she was so used to talking, she subconsciously wanted to make things difficult for others. Maybe Su Xiaoye could give her some more chicken soup in order to appease her. Unexpectedly, Su Xiaoye is a person who can't rub the sand in her eyes.

Does this count as shooting yourself in the foot?
