reborn child bride

Chapter 11

There is no need to buy vegetables, and if you buy them, you can go back and buy them in the fields of the same villagers.So after shopping around, I only bought meat and bone intestines.Seeing that it was almost time, and it was time for lunch, Aunt Wei bought two pancakes, one for each of Shen Ji, and made a meat pie for Wei Ying.

The two of them ate sesame seed cakes and drank the bamboo tube water they brought, and walked slowly to the original place and waited until Second Uncle Wang finished his business and drove the ox cart over.As usual, I gave a few pennies and sat back.

The pig intestines in Shen Ji's back basket were disliked, so she could only sit on the outermost side.The three women in the car were asking Aunt Wei how to make fish ball soup. Fifty bowls were sold for [-] Wen today, and the people next to them were jealous.In the countryside, a few hundred Wen is enough for a family to live for a month.

"It was made by sister Ji, I don't know how to do it. Even the pig intestines are what sister Ji wanted."

Everyone thought about it, Aunt Wei was excellent at embroidery, but her cooking skills were really bad. It was the truth.Then someone came over to ask Sister Ji, and she no longer thought she was stinky.And the aunt took out the candy bought for the children at home and wanted to give it to her.

Shen Ji refused with a smile, saying that Aunt Wei had already bought candies for her to eat, while showing the aunts a handful of candies in her pocket.Seeing that Aunt Wei was giving her a wink, indicating that she could not speak, she smiled and said, "Aunts, it is my family's ancestral handicraft, and it cannot be passed on."

The complexions of the three aunts were not as good as before, but it was not easy to press them.I could only say a few sour words, "Ms. Wei, you paid two taels of silver to buy Jijie, which is really a good deal. You can also make fish ball soup, and you can also weave lucky knots. Jijie, is the blessing knot also an ancestral handicraft?"

Shen Ji nodded, "That's right, but the aunts take it apart and learn it soon." You can't hide everything and don't tell others, otherwise you will become the public enemy of the whole village.Seeing Mrs. Wei smiling at her after speaking, I knew that she also had the same attitude.Usually there are women who come to ask Aunt Wei for some basic embroidery methods.

Sure enough, after returning home, Shen Ji was in the kitchen dealing with the meat and large intestines he had bought, and they came to ask for luck.Shen Ji simply asked Mrs. Wei to send a few simple ones.She is very fortunate that the Wei family's mother and son are still well-informed, otherwise she will have resistance to do these things.

Those few people did not come empty-handed, some took soybeans, some took radishes from home, and one took green vegetables, which can be regarded as barter.Shen Ji looked at these natural dishes, the meat and large intestines on the side, and all kinds of seasoning jars in the cupboard, and his heart was filled with indescribable joy.In the past, it was difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.Now, she can have more uses for her.

It is rare for farmers to eat meat, so it is necessary to think about ways to eat more meat.Shen Ji first cut off a little bit of fat on the top, about four taels in size, and sliced ​​it to cook in oil.Lean meat is shredded and sliced ​​separately, ready for today's tooth-making ceremony.Then I washed the bones, smashed them with the back of a knife, put them in the nest, and boiled them over high heat. The foam that came out was removed, and then changed to a slow fire until there were no foams. cook.After doing all this well, we can start to deal with the fat intestines.

She was always very cheerful while doing this.Aunt Wei looked at her methodically, so she went back to the house and started cutting cloth to make new clothes for Wei Ying.The first step is of course to measure the size of Wei Ying.

Wei Ying put down the book in his hand, stood up and raised his hand according to his mother's request, "Mother, what is the smelly thing sent back by sister?"

"It's a pair of pig intestines. She insists on it, saying that it can be made delicious."

"Oh." Wei Ying's eyes were also shining. Since sister Ji said it was delicious, it must be delicious, and I couldn't help but look forward to it.

"Ying'er, you said she has money on hand, will she have other thoughts?" It's already eighty coins, and she will save more and more in the future.

"Sure, but a person like Sister Ji cannot be easily tied down. The only thing that can keep her down is love."

"That's true, the maid of a rich family can also be redeemed, not to mention that she is so capable. I saw her ingenuity and wanted to entrust her with her embroidery work. But thinking that she might not stay for long, I just wanted to give it to her." It's a bit unreliable. When you say that, I understand clearly. As long as we treat her well, where can she go as a little girl of eight or nine years old. "

"Embroidery, she may not be interested. Mother, try it." Wei Ying always looks very satisfied every time she sees Sister Ji eating, and it can be seen that she loves eating very much.Moreover, as soon as he made money, he urged his mother to buy seasonings and meat.But the embroidery work, it seems that she didn't pay attention to it.

The most difficult thing left is the large intestine. Fortunately, Shen Ji still knows the method.Use rice washing water, vinegar and salt to scrub continuously, and change the water constantly.When it was finally done, Shen Ji felt that his waist could hardly straighten up.After washing her hands and soaking the apron in the bucket for a while, she walked to the dam to rest.

Wei Ying was basking in the sun and reading a book, and Aunt Wei was making clothes in the house.

"Ms. Wei, Sister Ji!" Someone shouted from outside the fence.It was Er Gouzi, who caught another fish and brought it over.

Shen Ji paid the money and took the fish.The fish that Er Gouzi catches are relatively plump and tender, and many dolls in the village follow behind him.Shen Ji simply discussed with him, asked him to organize those dolls, and gave him the money himself, and he would distribute it to them.

"Okay, it's convenient for everyone." Er Gouzi smiled honestly. He also heard about the Wei family selling fish ball soup on the way here. There are no secrets in the small village.However, that is the family's ancestral handicraft, so I can't envy it.It is already very good that he can catch fish in the river to exchange for money, but it is a costless business anyway.

Now that I have taught people how to weave the ten kinds of lucky knots, I will not plan to weave and sell them next time I go to the market, and I will only sell fish balls when I go to the market.Instead, we need to prepare some new varieties to sell at temple fairs.After resting, she still went to the main room to weave, and then put the finished product in Wei Ying's room.Sometimes people come to the main room, but no one goes to Wei Ying's room.Even if I want to get a glimpse of it, I dare not out of respect for scholars.

When Aunt Wei saw it, she came out to help weave it together, and it would be easier for Shen Ji to teach her.

In the evening, when Shen Ji was cooking dinner, Aunt Wei was killing fish beside her.After all, Shen Ji is only a child's body, so he can't be too burdened.Moreover, Aunt Wei is reluctant to let her suffer now.As for Wei Ying, one is the commandment for a gentleman to stay away from the kitchen, and the other is that with Mrs. Wei around, he will never be allowed to go to the kitchen.When Mrs. Wei was away, he would help Shen Ji fill the water tank with water from the well.

In the evening, I made fried pork shreds with green vegetables, and fried pork slices with fungus from rotten wood, two different methods and tastes.The fat meat is boiled directly in oil, the oil is shoveled into the oil tank, and the oil residue is also sprinkled with salt and served on the table.There is also stewed white radish stewed in big bone soup, with a ring of oil on top.As for the fat intestines, boil them in water, sprinkle with salt, put them in a large bowl in cold water, and eat them tomorrow.

Wei Ying picked up a slice of meat with his chopsticks, and a smile appeared on his face, and immediately he used the second chopsticks.The stir-fried pork with green vegetables just now tasted very delicious, and this sliced ​​meat with fungus has another flavor.He was still looking forward to the fat sausage, but there is already a lot of meat today, so let's eat it tomorrow.
