Returning to the Pastoral: Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 145 Pickled Du Xian

Xuan Haorui frowned, the children in this family were more alert than the other, he admired Su Sanniang a little bit, what method did he use to teach the children in the family to be so smart?
In fact, Su Yun is not used to teach, as the saying goes, growth is the best life teacher.Since the death of their parents and elder brothers, these children have felt the sadness of the world. Even the blood relatives of the same clan treat others so harshly, let alone outsiders.

Although children may not understand this truth, they already have this awareness subconsciously.Except for the young Shiro and Yuan'er, the other children's vigilance is relatively high.

Seeing that he couldn't find anything to ask, Xuan Haorui had no choice but to become more curious, so he gave up the idea of ​​asking the children, and instead told them all kinds of anecdotes from ancient and modern China and foreign countries. things come.

Besides, Su Yun went into the kitchen and searched around, except for some salted meat that was marinated during the Chinese New Year, there were only bamboo shoots and some small fish and shrimp caught in the river.

After thinking about it, he washed the bacon and prepared to cook a famous Jiangnan dish "Jianduxian" for this grandson.

Although the materials are not complete, who told this person to come suddenly?Just make do with it.Otherwise, they plan to eat noodles at noon today.It is also very delicious to stew those small fish and shrimp caught in the river as toppings!
It's just that now that the big Buddha is here, the miscellaneous stew made in this way may not be able to catch the eyes of a certain great god, and it may even be angry, so I can only use these ingredients to make some dishes.

"Jian Duxian" in the Jiangnan area of ​​later generations is an indispensable dish on the tables of the people in the Jiangnan area in spring.

The so-called salted Duxian refers to the combination of marinated bacon and fresh meat, stewed slowly over a low fire, and the thick soup is stewed in the sound of gurgling, full of fragrance. .

The ingredients of this dish are different from each household, some add mushrooms and some add bay leaves, but in general, there are three essential things in the so-called pickled duxian.

One is bacon, the other is fresh meat, and the third is bamboo shoots.Only when these three things are in order can it be regarded as a real salted Duxian.

However, today Su Yun is not so particular about the pickled fresh meat. The weather is getting hotter, and the fresh meat can't last long. Besides, he has been planning the field for the past few days, and he is busy cooking dry goods, so he didn't make any progress. In the city, all the meat I ate these days was brought over by Uncle Seven and Uncle Eight.

Su Yun thought that after he bought the land, he would start a breeding business by himself, so that it would be easier for him to produce and sell himself in the future.Otherwise, it would be troublesome to have to go to the city to eat meat.

In this village, pigs will not be slaughtered until the New Year's Eve. Even if the family's conditions are better, they have to go to the county town to buy meat, or take something of equivalent value to return it to other people.

Su Yun is not a very popular person in this village except for those down-and-out children. Everyone thinks she is unlucky, so bartering is impossible.

And it's not easy for those down and out children to eat enough, let alone the meat, how can there be anything that can be exchanged with Su Yun?
So Su Yun also planned, when he bought the land, he would have to buy some piglets, chickens or something to raise. Although the county town is not too far away, it's still a few miles to walk there.

In these seven thoughts and eight thoughts, a pickled Duxian dish has been prepared.Smelling the scent that wafted around, Lu Huan'er's nose kept wriggling, "Sister-in-law, it smells really good. I'll try it, sister-in-law."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pick up vegetables to eat, but just as he stretched out his hand, Lu Xier beat him back with chopsticks. Lu Xier pursed her lips and cursed: "You son of a bitch, you only know how to eat! Your mouth is getting bigger and bigger. I'm hungry, how many times has my sister-in-law said this? I have something bad in my hand, so I'm going to spoil my stomach if I pick up vegetables like this!"

"Ah! Sister, you are so cruel! You really hit me!" Lu Huan'er waved her hands, winking and said: "Sister is really bad, you are so cruel to me."

Su Yun walked forward with a smile, stretched out a finger and nodded Lu Huan'er's head, and said, "You little girl! How could your elder sister be willing to really hit you? It hurts so much, can you still act like you? You really have no heart to speak The elder sister of carambola slices knows that you like to eat them, and she is reluctant to leave them all to you and Yuaner, so you have the nerve to say that your elder sister doesn't love you?"

"Hee hee..." Lu Huan'er stuck out her tongue and said with a playful smile, "Sister-in-law, sister treats me well, I know that, am I acting like a baby with sister?"

"Don't be ashamed!" Su Yun stared, pretending to be angry and said: "Your sister is right! How many times have I said it? This hand is dirty, so I don't dare to pick up vegetables and eat it, it's bad What about the stomach?"

"Don't worry!" Lu Huan'er patted her stomach nonchalantly, then raised her hand and said, "Sister-in-law raises me like a calf, how can I get sick so easily?"

"You!" Su Yun smiled helplessly, "This mouth is so powerful, no one can tell you. It's okay to order casually at your natal family now, but what will you do when you get married? Your in-law's family is not like your natal family, and you have to follow the rules. .”

"Then I won't get married and will stay with my sister-in-law for the rest of my life."

"Okay, okay!" Lu Xi'er said with a sullen face on purpose, "Then you should comb it up early, sister-in-law, in the future, when she is old enough, if someone comes to kiss, then drive out, and see if she is in a hurry."

Maybe it's because life at home is getting better, or maybe it's because of the influence of Su Yun, an optimistic person, that Lu Xier has gradually become lively.

He can joke around in front of his own family, but he is still a boring gourd when he meets strangers.But Su Yun felt relieved, she was confident that Lu Xier would become more and more optimistic and lively in the future.

"Don't be silly, the prince is still waiting! Come on, help sister-in-law to serve the dishes, and sister-in-law will deal with these small fish and shrimps."

"Ah! Sister-in-law..."

The two sisters responded and brought out the dishes. Xuan Haorui, who was telling stories to the children, could smell the fragrance from a distance. Now that he was bringing out the dishes, he couldn't help but see it. It's so white and so red. Red, a handful of green shallots sprinkled on it is mouth-watering, not to mention the fragrance.

Another dish that I have never seen before.

this woman...

Lifting the chopsticks, he picked up a piece of bacon very elegantly, held it in his hand, looked left and right for a while, put it under his nose and smelled it, and then slowly put it into his mouth.

Su Yun looked aside and frowned.Could this guy be a dog?You have to smell it even after you eat it, do you think the girl will put medicine in it?

"Well, it tastes good..."

A certain evildoer swallowed slowly, took out the veil very gracefully and wiped his mouth, then put down the veil slowly, parted his thin lips slightly, and said casually: "The taste is not bad."

After a moment of silence, he said again: "It's just that pork is cheap meat, Su Sanniang, do you seem to like eating pork very much?"

Su Yun sighed slightly, spread his hands, and said helplessly: "The peasant women come from humble backgrounds, and can only eat cheap meat..."

After a pause, he looked at Xuan Haorui with resentment and said: "Even if it's this cheap meat, it's a rare delicacy in the poor's house..."
