The strongest peasant girl in Xiuse Jinyuan

Chapter 187 Preparing for the Start-up Meal (5)
After steaming the flower rolls, Wei Changjue prepared to stew the white radish bone soup first.

The radishes have been washed and cut, and the pig bones have been slaughtered into small pieces. They are put into boiling water to remove the blood, and they can be stewed with water after a short stir-fry.

There was Feng's special fire, and a pot of pork bone soup was stewed very quickly. After about half an hour, Wei Changju took a piece of pork bone with bamboo chopsticks and tried it. She sighed and bit down gently. The whole piece of lean meat attached to the bone has been torn off, and it has been stewed, and the soup in the pot is milky and white, smelling strong and fragrant, then pour in seasonings, sprinkle some garlic sprouts, Then you can start the pot.

After Wei Changju boiled the pig bone soup, Jiang Yungui had already washed the whole pig's head, and came back from the ditch with a wooden basin in his hand.

Seeing the sky, it will be bright soon.

After Jiang Yungui entered the house with the wooden basin, he said to Wei Changhe: "Hey, don't cook vegetables, and quickly boil the pot of water, and cook the pig's head first, or you will have to cook the pig's head later when you worship the earth god." Busy, don't be sloppy in offering sacrifices to the Earth God, it's unlucky to miss the best time."

In a small mountain village like Shili Village, anyone who has a family who wants to build a new house must bring a pig's head to the field to worship the god of the earth before starting construction, otherwise it will be unlucky to bump into the god of the earth.

Although she had spent a lot of time in the countryside in her previous life, Wei Changjue didn't know about it. Speaking of which, the Jiang family asked her to buy this pig's head.

Mrs. Jiang squatted on the ground to wash the eggplants, and after hearing what Jiang Yungui said, she urged Chief Wei to say, "Ji'er, listen to your second uncle, the flower rolls and pork bone soup have already been prepared. Ah, just fry a few dishes, don't be in a hurry, hurry up, put that pig's head in the pot and cook, don't miss the auspicious time."

"Yeah." Wei Changju took the pig's head soup out of the pot and put it aside, she nodded in agreement with Jiang, and then started to wash the pot.

After cleaning the pot, Wei Changju poured a few ladles of water into the pot.

Seeing that the pot was half full of water, Jiang Yungui quickly picked up the pig's head and put it into the pot.

Seeing that the water in the pot had already covered the whole pig's head, Jiang Yungui said, "Qiao'er, there is no need to add water, there is already enough."

With Jiang Yungui guarding the stove cooking the pig's head, Wei Changju put down the papaya in his hand and walked aside to help Jiang and Yu wash and pick vegetables.

Mrs. Feng heated up the fire vigorously, and within a short time, she heard the sound of ding dong ding dong in the pot, and the water in the pot had already boiled and started to bubble.

After cooking for a while, Jiang Yungui took a bamboo chopstick and thrust it into the pig's head with some force.

The bamboo chopsticks were easily inserted into the pig's skin. I'm afraid it's ok, so Jiang Yungui said to Feng Shi: "Mother, the pig's head has been cooked, you should turn off the fire in the stove first."

Feng turned off the raging fire in the stove, and after the heat in the pot dissipated a little, Jiang Yungui prepared the wooden basin, and then picked up the spatula to pick up the pig's head from the pot.

Because the pig's head was too heavy, at least twenty or thirty catties, it was still hot to the touch at the moment, and it was difficult to grasp or hold.

Seeing this, Mrs. Feng dropped the tongs in her hand, lifted her butt from the bench, and hurried to the back of the stove to help Jiang Yungui. After a while, the couple put the hot pig's head into the wooden basin .

Then, Jiang Yungui moved the pig's mouth away, and stuffed the pig's tail into the pig's mouth to hold it.

In this era, if ordinary farmers go to the butcher's stall to buy a whole pig's head, even if they don't say anything, the butcher must know that the pig's head is bought to worship the gods of heaven and earth, so they will naturally sell the pig's tail. Anyway, the pig's tail is not worth a few bucks, and you can buy it with a few more copper coins.

Although a pig's tail is not worth a few copper coins, it is not enough to worship the gods of heaven and earth without a pig's tail.

When Wei Changjue went to buy a pig's head, Jiang shi was afraid that she would not understand, so he specially instructed her.

Jiang Yungui cooked the pig's head. At this time, it was already daylight, and every household was up, and there was movement in the village, and there were two dogs barking and pigs barking from time to time.

Just as Wei Changju put on his apron and was about to pick up the spatula to cook, he heard someone calling outside the door.

The voice sounded very strange, presumably the craftsman who built the house had arrived, Wei Changju asked Feng to stop lighting the fire for the time being, and hurried to the door to greet him.

She had just walked to the door, before she had time to speak, the other party spoke first.

"Excuse me, is this Miss Wei's house?" The one who spoke was a middle-aged man in his 40s, with a mustache, tall and burly, and wearing a short shirt.

Wei Changqu stared at the burly leader and asked, "You are Master Lin."

Hearing Wei Changjue's question, Lin Jianchun knew that he was looking for the right person, so he said, "It's Lin." After he finished speaking, he slapped his thigh fiercely: "Oh, Miss Wei, I have found your home." , Song Gongzi only said that your family is in Shili Village, and your mother and the others are temporarily staying in the mountain temple in Shili Village, but you forgot to tell me how to get to this mountain temple, this mountain temple is not easy to find."

The mountain temple is some distance away from other residents in the village, and there are trees around it, so it can't be seen from a distance, and it is indeed a bit difficult to find.

As a result, a group of people came to the door early in the morning, Wei Changjue felt a little sorry, and said, "Master Lao Lin is here, come on, everyone hurry up and sit in the house." After speaking, Wei Changjue invited Lin Jianchun into the house.

There are twelve people including Lin Jianchun who came to work with Lin Jianchun this time.

Although Wei Changjue invited everyone to enter the house together, but that is to say, how can so many people stand in such a narrow room, except for Lin Jianchun, the rest of the people automatically stood outside the door and did not follow into the room. to squeeze.

Seeing that everyone was standing, Wang Laoshi hurriedly moved out the stools and chairs that were piled up in the room, and let everyone sit on the open space in front of the mountain temple to take a breather.

On the way early in the morning, a lot of morning dew and fog covered the whole group of people.

Mrs. Yu also hurriedly fetched several pots of hot water and asked everyone to wash their hands and wipe their faces.

After Lin Jianchun washed his face and took a breath, Jiang Yunshan held the pig's head and invited him to go to the homestead to worship the god of the earth. After worshiping the god of the earth and having breakfast, he could start working.

In the countryside, men usually go to worship the gods of heaven and earth. Wei Changjue didn't understand, and even if he went, he couldn't help much, so he simply stayed at home and prepared cooking.

The dishes have already been washed and cut. At this moment, Wei Changjue can just put the things in the pot and fry them until they are done.

I am going to cook the braised pig's trotters first. When stewing the white radish bone soup just now, Wei Changju also put the chopped pig's trotters in boiling water to get rid of the fishy smell. Now just pour oil into the pot and put The pig's trotters can be fried in a pan.
