Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 702 Killing the New Year Pig (12)

Li Wu'er was angry and annoyed, but she knew in her heart that she had no right to be angry...

She pursed her lips tightly, kept moving her hands, and continued to chop meat, but a calculating light flashed in her slightly drooping eyes.

Li Mingyue was full, so she rolled up her sleeves and came to help. Four pots of pork were cut up in a short while.

The chopped pork belly is mixed with sweet potato powder, salt, pepper, prickly ash, and eggs, and then deep-fried in an oil pan until golden. The fragrant and crispy meat is out of the pan.

Fried crispy meat is a traditional delicacy in Yunxi County. It is also called "oil dumpling" by the countrymen. The fried crispy meat can be eaten while it is hot, or it can be cooled and served with fungus and cabbage for soup. Eating it steamed is delicious no matter how you eat it.

The fried crispy meat made by Li's family is an improved recipe by Li Mingyue. A few spices are added, and the flour is replaced with sweet potato flour. The fried crispy meat is golden in color, crispy and delicious, and the taste is naturally better.

The golden crispy meat rolled in the oil pan, making a sizzling sound, and the tempting aroma wafted from the kitchen, making everyone in the yard swallow their mouths.

Someone sniffed hard, smacked his mouth twice, and sighed: "It's so delicious. I haven't eaten fried crispy meat in many years. Today we have a good fortune."

Although the crispy fried pork is a famous traditional dish here, it is not something that can be eaten often. It is rare for farmers to eat meat a few times a year, not to mention that the fried crispy pork has to be made with flour and eggs. How can ordinary people be willing to eat it? Such "pretentiousness" is rare to eat once in a year or a festival, and it is even rarer to eat it at a banquet in the village.

The fat aunt curled her lips and said with a smile: "Look at your promising appearance, it seems that you have never come to Li's house for a banquet. Brother Shou and his wife are not stingy, and they don't forget the folks when they are prosperous. It’s not that the meat is all over the plate, just wait and see, there are a lot of good things tonight, remember to eat at your leisure, and be careful not to burst your belly.”

The little daughter-in-law just married to Li Family Village last month. She made a joke without knowing the situation, and said with a blushing smile, "Hehe, isn't that better than eating during Chinese New Year..."

Another aunt covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Isn't that right, the banquet held by Li's family is the first one in the village. It's no worse than the restaurant in the town. The kids with bare legs outside can sing, and there's something to do with Uncle Li Shou." Eat meat... This statement is not false at all. We have eaten meat with the Li family several times this year. The mutton pot last time was always delicious. My son went back and talked about it several times. Oh, no. I'm drooling just thinking about it."

"Yes, it's all thanks to Brother Shou and his wife. We can also have a good year this year."

The business of Li Shou’s family is becoming more and more prosperous, and the villagers in Lijia Village are also benefiting. The Fushengji workshop hires long-term workers, and basically the villagers give priority to them. When harvesting sweet potatoes, mulberries, wild fruits, ducks, etc., they are collected first by the villagers, and the prices are fair and reasonable... In this way, the villagers have also made a few more money-making incomes. After a year, it is also a lot of money income.

Most of the country people are simple and honest, know how to be grateful, keep this kindness in their hearts, and respect Li Shou's family more and more.For example, when Li Shou's family slaughtered the New Year's pig today, there was no need to ask for it. Many people spontaneously came to help.
