Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 272 Buying Meat
At this time, the people in front of the queue glanced back and saw the long queue, thinking that even if they bought less, they could still buy it, unlike the people in the back, who were just wasting their efforts.

Thinking of this, my heart suddenly became balanced.

Honestly, he took out the five taels of meat ticket and handed it to the butcher.

Among them, no one felt that Wuliang was too little, and it was not enough to eat at all. They put out their identities, said who they were relatives of, and said what their son did, but it was useless at all. Buy five taels, no one will give that face today.

When it was Zhang Yu's turn, he looked at the bone next to him and asked, "Brother, is that bone for sale?"

"Sell, but if you want bones, you can only buy three taels of meat."

Aunt Zhao pushed Zhang Yu, indicating that he should buy meat, after all, the bones at this time are not like those of the younger generation with meat.

At this time, the bones are shaved so that they are smooth, basically without any flesh.

"Isn't my brother injured? I want to buy more bones and make some bone soup for him to make up his body." Zhang Yu said this sentence not only to Aunt Zhao, but also to the butcher.

After hearing his words, Aunt Zhao didn't stop her anymore.

Just like that, Zhang Yu happily left with two big bones and two or three taels of meat.

Those who followed him thought that he would not be able to make a living. Wouldn’t it be good to buy big bones and meat?

In order to buy these two big bones, you have to buy less meat. The two taels of meat are marinated with salt, and cut into a piece every time you stir-fry. It can be used for a long time.

The bones are cleanly shaved, without any minced meat, so what's the use of buying them?

But there are also some people who think that Zhang Yu is smart. After all, the bone is much heavier than two taels of meat. After buying it back, you can boil a big pot full of bone soup and use it to stew vegetables. The taste is also amazing.

Zhang Yu didn't know that just two bones had attracted so many people's attention.

He just happily went back with the basket.

After returning home, before opening the basket, I put two more pork bones in it.

He also came to the house and showed off to Zhao Feng: "Brother, guess what I bought?"

"What did you buy? It can't be meat, right?" Zhao Feng said jokingly.

But Zhang Yu was surprised, "Brother, how do you know I bought meat?"

"Why did you really buy meat?" If it wasn't for the wound on his body, Zhao Feng would have jumped up.

"It's not a festival, and it's already afternoon, where did you buy the meat?"

"Aunt Zhao came to inform me just now that the supply of meat is available, so I hurried to line up and bought a few taels of meat and some bones." Zhang Yu lifted the lid of the basket and held it up for Zhao Feng. look.

He didn't add meat to it. After all, anyone who buys meat knows that a person can only buy five taels at most, but he chose to ask for bones, so he only bought three taels.

"I'll make you a stew of bone soup, add some radishes, and drink two bowls of it warmly. It will not only supplement nutrition, but also taste good."

Zhang Yu's words made Zhao Feng swallow his saliva non-stop. There was no way he could do it. He hadn't smelled of meat for a long time.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Yu saw Zhao Feng standing up again, wandering around there.

"Brother, your wound is not healed yet, be honest, don't touch the wound again like a few days ago."

"Got it, got it, I didn't say, Xiaoyu, you are so young, why are you so talkative like an old lady." Zhao Feng made a look of indifference, and waved his hand, signaling something to Zhang Yu None.

"If you think I'm long-winded, don't move around." After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he picked up the bone door and packed it up.

He tried a few times with a vegetable cutting knife, but he didn't break the bone, and even broke two gaps in the knife.

Seeing the gap on the knife, Zhang Yu's scalp felt a little numb, and Zhao Feng, who ran over to watch Zhang Yu tidy up his bones, looked at the gap on the knife and laughed happily.

He gloated and said, "That's right, Xiaoyu, you did a great job. Just let my mother know that you broke her favorite knife twice. I don't know what she will do?"

With his smile, Zhang Yu was not so nervous.

Isn't it just a knife?Big deal, big deal, he will get two better ones for my sister-in-law.

This should be able to erase his mistakes.

It should be, right?

At this time, Zhang Yu didn't have any confidence.

He knew how much my sister-in-law liked this knife.

But no matter how uneasy he was, when facing the gloating elder brother, there was no trace of timidity on his face.

When passing by Zhao Feng's side, although his wound was not healed, he didn't give him a slap.

But he also stared at him in vain, and raised the bone in his hand, "If you have the ability, don't drink my bone soup."

As soon as these words came out, the smug expression on Zhao Feng's face disappeared immediately.

Changed to please.

It's as if you don't need money to please, one sentence after another, and one sentence is more disgusting.

At the end, Zhang Yu couldn't take it anymore, he unconsciously rubbed his bristling arm, and interrupted him.

After looking at the bones that had been chopped several times without any cracks, Zhang Yu simply carried the big bones to the side of the stone pool where the water was collected, put a small chopping board on it, picked up the ax for chopping wood, and cut it three times and five times. Two to split in half.

Then put it directly under the tap to rinse it off, put it into a large pot, put only a few slices of ginger, add more than half of the pot of water, and start cooking directly.

This pot of bone soup has not been officially ready until my sister-in-law and the others get off work.

As soon as the lid was opened, a strong smell of big bone soup mixed with white mist came to the nostrils, and the glutton in Zhang Yu's stomach was instantly aroused.

Just smelling this taste and not eating it can make people slander and whet your appetite.

After a long time of boiling, the bones are almost melted, and only one third of the water is left.

The soup was milky and white. Zhang Yu didn't put too much seasoning in it, but just sprinkled a little salt.

After stirring for a few times, he felt that it was salted, so he couldn't wait to pick up a spoon to scoop a little, put it into a bowl, and tasted it. He only felt that the saltiness was just right, and the aftertaste was endless.

Just as the whole family was off work, Zhang Yu brought the bone soup to the table.

"The bone soup is ready, come and eat quickly."

As he spoke, he brought out the steamed buns that had been warmed on top of the bone broth just now.

The family who smelled the bone soup had long been hungry.

It's just that in order to save my own face, I'm just holding on there.

But in order to drink the bone soup as quickly as possible, they washed their hands early and waited at the door.

At this time, when they heard Zhang Yu's voice calling for dinner, they reacted quickly. Before Zhang Yu's steamed buns were brought out, they sat around the dining table.
