peasant shrew

Chapter 151

"Okay, I'll cook pork ribs for lunch later today, and let's have a lively meal. Hurry up tomorrow, and start preparing the New Year's goods." Yueniang also knew in her heart that if she cooperates with a restaurant, her own shop may also open. It's thirty years old.But the house still needs to be cleaned. After all, this is only a temporary residence, and the house is its own territory. "It's getting late today, mother, don't rush to go back, hurry up and buy the new year's goods, and let Tieniu drive the ox cart to take you back. I will find a familiar aunt to help clean up the house. We will wait a few days Let’s celebrate the new year happily.”

Mrs. Zhou naturally complied, and turned to the kitchen to help wash the ribs and pieces of meat.Zhao Sanni also went to the cellar to get the cabbage, washed the vermicelli, and waited for a while for her sister-in-law to cook sauerkraut meat and spicy cabbage.

Thinking about it, I feel like my mouth is drooling.

After washing her hands, Lin Yueniang pushed Zhao Tieniu, who was joining in the fun, out of the stove, while chatting with Zhou Shi and Sanni herself while pouring oil into the pot.

The dry red chili was broken into pieces and sprinkled into the oil pan together with peppercorns, ginger, and garlic. With a sound of tearing, a trace of green smoke rose, followed by a spicy smell.Yueniang stretched out her hand and poured the squeezed and chopped sauerkraut into the pot, and stir-fried it slightly, the hot and sour taste came out.

"Sister-in-law, the taste is really delicious." Sanni handed over the freshly cooked ribs, watched Lin Yueniang pour the soup and bones into the sauerkraut along the side of the pot, and sniffled vigorously.

Stuffing the sauerkraut that had just been fried with a chopstick into Sanni's mouth, Yueniang looked at her with satisfaction and smacked her mouth and laughed. "Later, fry sausages, get boiled pork slices and braised potatoes, and then stew Chinese cabbage, and we'll be done together."

Thinking of the spicy boiled pork slices, Lin Yueniang couldn't help drooling just like Zhao Sanni.The oily red and spicy soup, the spicy meat slices, and the cabbage leaves as a base are very good for dinner.

Speaking of it, it would be even better if there were soybean sprouts and Flammulina velutipes. Unfortunately, under the current conditions, it is not difficult to plant them in winter, and it is difficult to achieve the goal.Although it is also possible to simulate greenhouse planting, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it may not be successful.

Looking at the freshly fried chili and prickly ash in the pot, Lin Yueniang quickly poured it on the cabbage leaves and sliced ​​meat that she had fried. In an instant, the aroma of the meat surged with the thought of spicy.The aroma is overflowing, just looking at it makes people salivate.

"Daughter-in-law, what are you doing? It smells so good." Zhao Tieniu, who had just cleaned up the shop and chopped firewood, asked while wiping his face with a cloth towel.Seeing the glowing red boiled pork slices in the basin, I couldn't help but move up to my daughter-in-law, intending to hold her hand.The ashamed Sanni blushed and ran out of the kitchen, and Zhao Tieniu even got Yueniang's reproachful stare.But he didn't care at all, seeing that there was no one around, he put his arms around his wife's waist and kissed her.

"Oh, I'm not afraid of people's jokes, so hurry up and get out." Lin Yueniang pushed him vigorously, blushed and gave a pooh, and then took out the sausage from the pot.

Zhao Tieniu smiled and squatted down to help his wife watch the fire, so that Sister-in-law Mei and Jiang Minghai, who had just arrived in the backyard, turned their heads to the front with a smile.

Hearing movement outside, Lin Yueniang hurriedly looked out, but saw Jiang Minghai holding Sister Mei's hand and walking out, she couldn't help but glared at the innocent man again.

Smelling the scent, the little wolf couldn't help rubbing against the side of the stove, wagging his tail and circling around.Lin Yueniang, who watched, patted it on the forehead as soon as she made dinner, and gave it a spoonful of stewed meat and cabbage.

We eat in the room where we entertain guests in the backyard, which is considered warm because of the brazier.Not new to the Eight Immortals table, freshly cooked meat dishes and steamed buns were placed.Just smelling it can make people greedy.

After all, she and Mrs. Mei's family are two families, so it's important to pay attention to different seats between men and women.No, Yueniang Mei's sister-in-law Zhou and Sanni are sitting at a small table, while Zhao Tieniu is sitting at the big table with Jiang Minghai and Jiang Dayuan.

"It's almost the Chinese New Year, but our business is not too bad these days, and we probably have to work until the New Year's Eve." Lin Yueniang greeted everyone to take a seat, and said with a smile, "If Brother Jiang and Sister Mei are in a hurry, let's put it aside for a few days Fake to go back and tidy up. If Sanni wants to go back, hurry up tomorrow and go back with your brother's ox cart."

Jiang Minghai and Mrs. Mei exchanged glances, and said, "There's nothing to fix, and the yards on the left and right are not my home."

Of course he was talking about the rented place. The house in the village was sold, and there was only a small amount of land left, which was enough to build a house.But now they don't have that plan, anyway, as long as they can fall into the grave when they are about to sink into the ground.

In the final analysis, the couple also put in a lot of effort for their son's success. If the son hadn't become a self-motivated man, let alone selling the house and fields, they would not agree even if they took out their savings.But the son is sensible and smart, and even the wife went to the house twice to look for him.In this way, even if they are trying to sell iron, they have to confess a scholar.

Mrs. Mei naturally has no objection, besides, it is time to pay the rent during the Chinese New Year, and when the spring begins, my son should go to the state to go to the examination room.The imperial examination this time is not as good as relying on scholars in the countryside before, so they naturally want to prepare as much money for their son as possible.Now it is good to be able to work one more day and earn one more day's wages.

After thinking about it, Yueniang's belly will grow bigger after reading it, and it is unrealistic to always take care of it in the shop.What's more, she had other plans in mind, so she discussed it with Sister Mei and his wife.After all, she might not feel at ease if she left this matter to a stranger.
