Nongmen Jinfeng: Cold-noodled husband and little daughter-in-law

Chapter 463

The old lady is indeed experienced, and after a series of instructions, she arranged things properly.Fang Xiaofu could only touch his nose and went into the kitchen.

There is a pot of warm thick rice porridge on the stove, and the thick rice soup is full of water.This is naturally not for them to eat, but for the piglets.

Even if the sow has enough milk, at least a dozen will be born this time, how can there be enough to eat?Therefore, just like feeding a baby, although there is no bottle, it must be taken care of carefully.

No wonder the old lady called so many people over.

But listening to the grunting of the sows in the backyard, it seems that the attack has just happened not long ago, and it can't be so fast.Maybe it's going to be midnight.

Fang Xiaofu thought for a while, and with the old lady's consent, he stopped cooking for dinner, cooked a pot of rice, steamed some steamed buns on it, and could reheat the leftovers to eat directly when he was hungry at night, which was very convenient.

As for the pot of rice, Fang Xiaofu decided to make fried rice.Everyone thought that she cooked rice to eat with kimchi, because there was only one pot for warming rice soup and porridge, so it was not easy to cook vegetables.

Unexpectedly, Fang Xiaofu called on the sisters to start chopping stuffing and cleaning vegetables, and called the second and third brothers to make noodles, while she ran to wash some sauerkraut, capers, shallots, bean sprouts, and young lettuce leaves.

Second Mistress came over soon, and Aunt Xiaotang also came with her.They helped find some straw and cloth, spread them in bamboo baskets, and took them to the backyard.

Not long after, Fang Yang and Fang Liu came back panting.

Although the sow hadn't started giving birth to piglets yet, she couldn't be careless. Several people stayed outside the pigpen, while the two old ladies went directly into the pigpen to deliver babies at any time.

Now that summer is not too hot, it is a good time for giving birth, which is much better than winter or even snowy nights, and the temperature is just right.

The little bookboys were out of school, and as soon as they got home and heard about the piglets from the excited sisters, they immediately ran to the backyard to watch the excitement, but they were all driven back.

This piglet is like a human giving birth. Where are you little girls and children watching the fun casually?Even the Fang Zizhan brothers couldn't go to the backyard.

Although it is not new for them to give birth to at least one litter and several litters at most every year, it is still a big event in the family according to the past habits.

Because there are more piglets, it means that there are more pigs that can be raised and fattened in a year, and they can't eat a pen of their own. Almost every family in the village has them. Where do the pigs go?Naturally, the butcher from that town came to buy it at home.

There are not many people in the city who raise pigs. If they want to eat meat, of course they go to the slaughterhouse to buy it by the catty.

Of course, it is impossible for farmers to go to the town to buy meat twice in three days. They always kill a pig at home, and neighbors come to buy some, and keep the rest for themselves.

For those pig offals, they will be made into dishes on the day the pigs are slaughtered. Please come and have a lively meal, which is the traditional pig-killing rice.Regardless of whether you eat or not, the picture is about excitement, and what you pay attention to is auspiciousness.

Naturally, whoever has more piglets means more money this year.Although the old Fang's family is no longer short of these two moneys, they still habitually pay attention to the matter of piglets.

This is the duty of the peasant family, and it has nothing to do with the amount of savings.

Soon, the old man also rushed back, and hurried to the backyard with a happy face.In the kitchen, the brothers were all crowded here, looking at the back door frequently.

The sisters were all making steamed buns and steamed buns. After Fang Xiaofu checked the side dishes, he thought about it and stewed a chicken soup in the top pot.

She first boiled the water in a pot, and then asked her elder brother to ask the old man to kill two chickens.Now she and Fang Zizhan hardly talk to the old man or father directly.

Anyway, if you can’t say it, you don’t say it, if you can’t avoid it, you don’t make a fuss, just say it.The atmosphere is actually very awkward and dull.But everyone is used to it now and doesn't struggle anymore.

When the sky faded and a crescent moon appeared, several torches were already lit in the backyard, and several oil lamps were lit on the wall holes in the pigsty, illuminating the whole pigsty.

But oil lamps are not modern fluorescent lamps, they only flicker with a mild and dim light, which is not dazzling.The sow seems to have fallen asleep again after crying tired, so everyone can only watch and observe her state.

There were several groups of people crowded in the kitchen, and even Zichun and Zixu joined in the fun.Some of them are in the stove, some are at the desk, some are by the water tank, some are in the cupboard, and they are all discussing a topic.

Fang Xiaofu stood on tiptoe in front of the stove, opened the steamer one by one to see the condition of the buns and steamed buns.

Still only put three compartments in the steamer, and when it was cooked, she asked the eldest brother to remove the upper two compartments, and the second brother also ran over to help, so she asked him to use two thick dishcloths to move out the bottom cooked compartment and put it in the oven. desk.

The eldest brother put the two grids in the pot again, and will add a new one.Fang Xiaofu hurriedly stopped him, saying that the rice was almost cooked, and when the rice was cooked, add water and steam it again.

The first thing cooked was a basket of steamed stuffed buns. Fang Xiaofu asked his sisters to pack them in a small clean basket, and asked the people in the backyard to get them by themselves.After a while, Aunt Xiaotang came over and took a basket of buns.

The second dish was cornmeal steamed buns, which were still packed in a small basket, but they were not sent to the backyard, so I couldn't eat so many.The little brothers all wanted to eat steamed buns, so the sisters each took a steamed bun and ate it first.

When the third level was cooked, the rice was almost dry, so Fang Xiaofu inserted the chopsticks carefully a few times, and then covered the pot.The third box is also a steamed stuffed bun, and the brothers ate it separately, leaving one for Fang Xiaofu.

After everyone finished eating, Fang Xiaofu put all the rice in the end basin, added half a pot of water, and put three boxes of steamed buns and one box of steamed buns.When the pot started to cook, there was a lot more commotion in the backyard.

The sow started to give birth to her first piglet, and with a crisp humming sound, the piglet was carried into the bamboo basket prepared in advance and moved to the side.

At this time, Mrs. Fang Liu went into the kitchen to scoop rice soup, put it in a shallow basin, and hurried back to the backyard.Everyone didn't ask anything, and ate the buns silently.

After the buns and steamed buns were all steamed, he put the steamer grid directly on the desk, and Fang Xiaofu began to wash the pot and fry the rice.

The rice is freshly cooked hot rice, which is especially good for frying.

She first put oil to heat up the pan, fried a sauerkraut egg flower, added the leftover meat stuffing specially made for steamed buns, adjusted the seasoning, and added rice and lettuce leaves.

This is sauerkraut fried rice, only use half of the rice.All the rest are fried with capers, fresh mung bean sprouts, and seasoned with a little soy sauce.

Both kinds of fried rice were served in large bowls, and the brothers and sisters were asked to serve them in small bowls, and they also scooped up chicken soup to drink.Two big bowls of fried rice were left for the adults, and they were placed in a steamer.

Water was refilled in the pot, Fang Zizhan added a fire to the stove, Fang Zijian put all the steamers on the pot, and they were heating up on the pot, adults can come and eat at any time.
