Reborn farm girl

Chapter 12

After eating lunch, Liu Ya sprinkled all the things she bought today with salt.Because the salt is expensive, this bit of meat is also eaten during the New Year, so Liu Ya didn't touch a lot, just to make the meat taste good.However, since they ate the large intestines from Liu Ya Nong, whenever the Song family went to the market, they would buy a pair or two and bring them back to Liu Ya Nong.This can be regarded as improving the quality of life of the Song family.

As for those pig bones, Liu Ya took out one or two every day and stewed them with radishes for Ba Ya to eat.

After a week, Liuya took out the pig's head and asked Song Laoer to help burn the hair on the pig's head.The second son of Song knew that his daughter was wasting food, so he helped without saying a word.

Not only is there a lot of hair on the pig's head, but it is also very difficult to burn.Seeing that the burning was not clean, Liuya took something to pull out. When Liuya and the others were plucking the hair, Liuya asked Big Ya and Erya to wash the other pig internal organs with hot water.Then rub some rope with straw, put these things together, and hang them outside to let them dry.

When Da Ya and Er Ya finish those tasks, the hair on the pig's head will be plucked.After plucking the pig's hair, I took the pig's head to Da Ya and the others to wash.Liu Ya pestered Song Lao Er to fetch cypress branches and came back.

Although Song Laoer didn't know what Liuya wanted to do, he knew that she wasn't doing it for fun, so he followed her to get some cypress trees. "Liuya, the cypress branches are coming, what are you going to do next?"

Seeing that Song Laoer was so impatient, Liuya smiled and said, "Father, let's rest now."

Song Lao Er asked puzzledly, "Then what did you ask me to do with these cypress branches?"

"Of course I'm useful, but it's not just for now." As for what to do, Song Lao Er couldn't figure out what to do without Liu Ya's mention.It's just that Liu Ya's curiosity was hooked out, and Liu Ya didn't say anything, his heart felt as uncomfortable as a cat scratching.

Early the next morning, Liu Ya went to see the meat and saw that there was no moisture left, so she asked Song Laoer and Song Laosi to build a simple stove with mud and stones in the yard, but this stove was not the same as other stoves. , and it is not used for cooking, but for bacon, so the sides of the stove are straight, but the middle is empty.

After buying these things back, Liu Ah thought about what to do with them.It is too oily to fry and eat like this.Song and Zhang couldn't pass that test.Liuya wanted to make bacon. In her previous life, she was from Sichuan and grew up in the countryside. She knew how to make bacon.This bacon is simple and delicious, and it doesn't cost Song Zhang a drop of oil.

After the stove was finished, Liu Ya went to find some long and thick wood, and stringed the internal organs with wood, then put them on top of the stove, and finally found some unnecessary things to cover them, so as not to let the smoke escape.

After all this is done, the meat is smoked. The smoked meat is also particular about the method. You can't use good firewood, so as not to burn the meat.Wet firewood is the best, not only will there be more smoke, but the meat will not be able to burn.Just add some cypress branches from time to time.To be honest, every time I used to smoke pork, I had to add cypress branches. I heard that the cypress branches will be more fragrant, but Liu Ya has never tasted any difference.Now she thinks about the cypress branch, and it's because of adding it before.

After smoking the meat for a day, Liu Ya turned off the fire and didn't smoke it any more.So he asked Song Laoer to help move the smoked meat to the house and hang it up.As for why it was hung in their house, it was because she made these things, and no one else knew how to do them.

Looking at the pig's ears and belly that had been smoked, Liu Ya couldn't help but swallowed. After holding back for a long time, she resisted the urge to take them down and cook them.

The bacon is smoked, and the family is preparing for the New Year.The last time they spent more money because of Song's second child, this year's New Year's goods were bought by Song and Zhang himself.The meat had already been bought, and she went to the market to buy some snacks.These snacks are not for the family members, but for the children who come to the family to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year.

On the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, the little uncle came to invite Song Laoer's family to go to the New Year's Eve tomorrow.He naturally agreed, and the little uncle didn't stay any longer, so he went home.

As soon as the little uncle left, Mrs. He went to explain to Mrs. Song and Mrs. Zhang that she was going back to her natal family for the New Year's Day. Yes.

The sisters were very happy knowing that they were going to grandma's house tomorrow.Especially Siya, she will finally be able to stop doing that needlework tomorrow, not to mention how happy she is.Liuya is also very happy that she doesn't have to stay in the house tomorrow.

The next day, the family got up early, and rushed to grandma's house after breakfast.This time, my natal family couldn't go empty-handed, but Song Laoer and He's family didn't have much money, so if they asked Song and Zhang's for money, they would definitely not give it.Later, Liuya said, take half of the pig's head.

Naturally, Mrs. He knew that this gift was too generous, but the family really didn't have anything to offer, and they couldn't go empty-handed, so in the end they had to let Liuya take half of the pig's head.

Song Laoer hugged Baya, and He rushed to grandma's house with the pig's head in his arms.Grandma's house is not far away, only half an hour away.However, it was quite a long way for Liuya, her feet hurt from walking, and she finally arrived at her grandmother's house.

Grandma He Zengshi was very happy to see her daughter and granddaughter, but when she saw her daughter holding half a pig's head in her hand, she blamed He Shi again.He Zeng knew that it was not easy for her daughter to live in that woman's hands.But the water poured out by the married daughter, who did not add a grandson to the Song family, is no longer tenable.Therefore, even if He Zeng knew that his daughter's life was difficult, he never went to trouble Song He.

When the eldest aunt Li saw the He family coming, she called her sister-in-law and took the pig's head from He's hand.And the second aunt, Yang, saw that He only brought half of the pig's head back to her mother's house, so she curled her lips.

After a while, the two of them went back into the kitchen to get busy.

"Sister-in-law, you see, this little girl didn't bring anything with her when she came back, and when she left, our mother didn't know how many things I would take with her." The second aunt murmured to the eldest aunt dissatisfied.

"It's not easy for his second aunt and sister-in-law. Let's help if we can." The eldest aunt was honest, although she was a little dissatisfied every time He took back the big and small bags, but she didn't say so clearly like the second aunt. speak out.

The second aunt secretly hated Li for not telling the truth, but only pretending to be honest.

The conversation between Mrs. Li and Mrs. Yang happened to be heard by Liu Ya.Originally, Liu Ya was afraid that the two aunts would not be able to do it, so she wanted to tell them how to do it, but she didn't expect to hear what she shouldn't have heard.

Although she heard what she shouldn't have heard, Liu Ya didn't show it on her face, she went directly to the stove, told the two aunts how the pig's head was done, and then left.

And Mrs. He talked to Mrs. He Zeng for a while, then rolled up his sleeves and went to help in the kitchen.Erya and Sanya were older and went to help, and the others were younger and had already gone out to play.But Liu Ya has lost her energy after listening to the conversation between the two aunts.Seeing this, He Zeng thought that Liuya was tired, so she asked her to sleep on the bed for a while.Liu Ya shook her head and said she was not tired.

Seeing that she said she was not tired, He Zeng asked Liuya what her mother was doing at home.He Zeng was afraid that He would report the good news but not the good ones, so he thought that Liu Ya would tell her the truth because she was young.

But Liuya is completely different. Although she is a child physically, she is very old mentally, and she knows that she was never worried about her daughter being wronged.Liuya, seeing that Mrs. He didn't say anything, she naturally wouldn't let Mrs. He worry about it, so she picked it up and said it.After hearing Liuya's words, Mrs. He Zeng really thought that Mrs. Song Zhang's conscience had discovered that she knew that Liuya was not telling the truth.

Today is the year of the He family reunion, tomorrow we will prepare the vegetables and meat, and we only wait for the He family to cook and eat as soon as he arrives.Because Mrs. He brought half a pig's head, the meal was late.

After the pig's head was cooked, Mrs. He asked Liu Ya to see how it was done.They don't know how to do it.After a while Liuya came to the kitchen.Liuya made cold dishes without frying the thinner part, and fried the other parts directly.It was done in no time.

At the dinner table, it was the first time for everyone to eat bacon, which was very strange. After tasting a little, it smelled like incense.When everyone knew that it was Liu Ya who made it upside down, they praised Liu Ah again and again.
