Wu Shuqin hurriedly said: "Xinglan is agile and has good eyesight. Xiaolan and her are close cousins. She will definitely do a good job."

Tong Xinglan also said: "Auntie, thank you for helping me. I will do my best and never cheat or be lazy."

Wu Shufen looked at her and said with a smile: "Xinglan, making cakes is very tiring. She wakes up earlier than chickens and sleeps later than dogs. Don't make noise when the time comes to go home."

Tong Xinglan was stunned for a moment: "I heard that my cousin opened a shop, and Qiaohui is working as a salesperson in the shop!"

Wu Shufen said: "Someone is hired to sell things in the shop. Yuezhen and your cousin won't be free these two days, and Qiaohui is temporarily helping out in the shop."

Wu Shuqin gave Tong Xinglan a pull: "Xinglan, Qiaohui can persevere, and you don't lack any arms or legs. What are you afraid of?"

She felt that selling things in the shop was better than learning the craft from Lin Lan.Once you learn the craft, you are your own, and you will benefit from it all your life.

Tong Xinglan didn't respond after hearing this, but she still wanted to go to Lin Lan's shop to help.

Wu Shufen took a look at her younger sister, and decided that there was a suitable opportunity to persuade her to take care of Xinglan as soon as possible, and not follow her old path.

Wu Shufen deep-fries the oil-based meat until the meat is browned, first puts the meat into a jar, then scoops the oil in the pot into a clay pot until the meat in the jar is completely covered, and continues to fry the oil-based meat.

The marinated oil-bottomed meat is fried, and the rim of the clay pot is already cold.

The Wu Shufen sisters carried the jar to the east chamber and put it against the wall. After the oil in the jar solidified, they would cover and seal it, and it would be ready to eat within a month.

When eating, take a piece out and put it on a plate to steam for more than ten minutes. You can also slice it and eat it like this, or you can stir-fry vegetables, green peppers, garlic sprouts or other vegetarian dishes.

The oily meat tastes mellow, fat but not greasy, and it also has the effect of appetizing and invigorating the spleen.

The oil-bottom meat fried in this way, as long as the meat in the jar is covered with oil and the lid is sealed, it will not rot even if it is left for several years.

After the oil-bottomed meat was fried, Wu Shufen took out the sauced meat marinated in the basin, drained the salt water, put it into a half-sized pottery jar, sprinkled some fennel, pepper... Pour the soy sauce into the clay pot until the sauce submerges the meat.

Wu Shuqin smiled and said, "Second Sister, it's been a long time since I've eaten sauced meat. I remember that when I was young, the old man would marinate a lot every year and sell it to those who make banquets."

Wu Shufen nodded, "Every time the old man marinated, he asked us to fish it out and hang it on a bamboo pole to dry for a day before hanging it on the beam." She thumped her sore waist, "The sauced meat has been marinated a lot. I haven't eaten happily."

Wu Shuqin joked with a smile: "Your family has opened a pig farm, and Xiaolan has marinated so much, you are afraid that you will not have sauced meat in the future!"

Speaking of Lin Lan, Wu Shufen smiled all over her face: "Yes! Xiao Lan said that your brother-in-law and I should wait and enjoy our blessings."

She's not showing off, she really feels satisfied, she feels that she has not worked in vain in this life, her children are sensible and obedient, and they are very filial, isn't that what being a parent is all about!
"Second sister, what a blessing." Wu Shuqin felt a little sour in her heart, and was also happy for her.

The two nephews who were soldiers sent all their allowances home, and the two nephews at home were also united with their parents. Even Lin Lan, who was the most disobedient, became so capable.

The two sisters gossiped, prepared the sauced meat, and took down the ribs and bacon that were drying on the bamboo poles and hung them on several bamboo poles.

Then pour a few pinches of chaff, sugarcane bark and cypress branches under the bacon, go into the house and take out two mats, surround all the bacon, light the cypress branches and start smoking the bacon.

The smoked bacon is not removed until before going to bed, and hung on the wooden sticks hanging in front of the stove. It can be eaten after half a month of smoking.

The bacon smoked in this way is full of bacon in the mouth, the bacon is mellow, fat but not greasy, thin and not clogged.

At 05:30, Lin Lan's father and daughter just came back from Brother Yong's house, and Wu Shufen had already brought Xiaodouzi back.

Lin Lan said to Wu Shufen: "Mom, I have to go to the shop and take Qiaohui home."

Xiaodouzi pulled Lin Lan: "Mom, I want to go with you."

Lin Lan nodded: "Okay, go and put on the scarf and hat, mom will take you there."

Tong Xinglan glanced at Wu Shuqin: "Mom, I also want to go to the street with my cousin."

Wu Shuqin took a look at Lin Lan and said with a smile, "Go, go and learn with your cousin."

Tong Xinglan sat in the back seat, Lin Lan could only let Xiaodouzi sit on the big bar, tied up Xiaodouzi's scarf, put on gloves and rode towards the shop.

The three of them went to the department store first. There was a customer in the store looking at the hair dryer, and a few others were hanging out in the store.

Lin Lan locked the bicycle, and Xiaodouzi had already run into the alley to the shop.

Lin Lan brought Tong Xinglan into the shop, He Li smiled and glanced at Lin Lan: "Sister-in-law looks really good today."

Qiaohui smiled and nodded: "My cousin looks good in anything she wears."

Xiaodouzi took Lin Lan's hand: "Yes, my mother is the prettiest."

The customers in the store and the people who wandered around laughed.

Lin Lan glared at the two of them reproachfully, and asked He Li in a low voice, "Are you busy today?"

He Li wailed in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, you and brother Xiangyang are not here. We are busy today. Fortunately, sister-in-law Yongmei is helping us."

Lin Lan patted her on the shoulder with a smile: "After this part is over, I'll treat you to hot pot."

Tong Xinglan looked at the watches on the counter and felt that her eyes could not see them: "Cousin, your watches are more than those of the supply and marketing cooperatives, and they look better than theirs."

"They are all the latest styles brought in from the coast, and they must look better than those from the supply and marketing cooperative." Lin Lan glanced at her with a smile, "Did Xing Lan and Qiao Hui know each other?"

Only then did Tong Xinglan look up at Qiaohui, the dirty mountain cousin in her memory has changed a lot since she came to the city!
Qiaohui glanced at her, and smiled shyly: "Don't tell me, cousin, I really can't recognize it as cousin Xinglan, I thought she was a relative of the Yang family!"

Tong Xinglan nodded with a smile: "If I hadn't met at my cousin, I wouldn't have recognized you. We haven't seen each other for eight or nine years, right?"

Lin Lan looked at the two happy girls, and took Xiaodouzi's hand: "You sisters are talking, I'll go and have a look."

The two said in unison: "Good cousin."

Lin Lan led Xiaodouzi to the clothing store opposite, and saw three people trying on clothes in the store, and two others picking out clothes. Zhou Yongmei, the screw, came here to help again.

Zhou Yongmei greeted with a smile: "Xiao Lin is here!"

Lin Lan looked at her gratefully: "Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work."

Zhou Yongmei smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, after moving here, I come out and walk around every day, and I can sleep better at night."

Lin Lan joked with a smile: "I'm afraid I'll exhaust you, brother Shui Qing will settle accounts with us."

Zhou Yongmei blushed and said, "Thank you all before it's too late!"

As I write here, the cat recalls the time when I smoked bacon with my mother, and the days when I cooked pig food and secretly cut bacon and cooked it in pig food. Unfortunately, there will never be such a warm and beautiful day again.
