Yun Mian was reborn in the 1980s, becoming a helpless little orphan. Fortunately, her dad brought her home, and her grandparents doted on her like the apple of their eye.
Her grandma pointed ...
Pig heads have a lot of bones, and scraping the hair off the pig is a hassle. Most people don’t like to eat pig heads, so pig heads are relatively cheaper than pork.
"Uncle salesman, can I talk to my dad first and then buy the meat?"
Yunmian tried hard to act cute in front of the salesperson at the raw meat stall.
The salesperson was immediately attracted by her cuteness and waved at her.
"This little girl is so cute. Little girl, go talk to your father. I'll greet the other guests first."
Just then, a man came to the meat stall and asked how much leg meat was, which attracted all the attention of the salesperson.
Yun Mian pulled Yun Yongcheng aside to talk.
Seeing that little Sun was acting mysteriously, Yun Aiguo also followed her.
"Mianmian, you are so mysterious, what do you want to say to your father?"
Yunmian looked at Grandpa and Dad, lowered his voice and said, "Grandpa, Dad, let's buy that pig's head."
This time, Yun Aiguo disagreed with his granddaughter.
He's just a kid and doesn't know how to buy things.
"Mianmian, pig heads are not good. There are too many bones. A 20-pound pig head, after removing the bones, only has 14 pounds of pork at most. It's not cost-effective. Besides, it's hard to shave the hair off the pig head, and it's very troublesome to clean it."
Yun Aiguo frowned as he spoke.
Yun Yongcheng: "Dad, don't be so quick to object. Let Mianmian finish what she has to say first."
"Mianmian, if you have any ideas, just say it."
Yun Yongcheng squatted down, held the little girl's small body in his arms, and spoke in a soft voice.
Yun Mian's eyes rolled around as she spoke, "Dad, stewed dishes made with pig's head taste really, really good. They're much better than stewed dishes made with pork belly."
Yun Yongcheng was curious. He stroked the little girl's head, smiled, and asked, "Girl, how do you know that braised dishes made with pig's head are tastier than those made with pork belly?"
Yun Mian had already thought of what to say before she opened her mouth.
"I've eaten it before. My mom made it for me. It was delicious."
In her previous life, after Yun Yongcheng became rich, Qin Yu became a housewife and learned to cook well, especially making braised food.
Yunmian licked the corner of her mouth and suddenly missed her mother Qin Yu's cooking skills.
Seeing her licking the corner of her mouth, as greedy as a cat seeing dried fish, Yun Yongcheng smiled dotingly.
"Dad, let's just buy the pig's head. It's not expensive anyway, and the bones can be used to make soup."
"Grandpa, buy it, buy it."
Afraid that Yun Aiguo would not agree, Yun Mian pulled Yun Aiguo's hand and acted coquettishly.
“The braised pig ears are very fragrant, and the braised pig tongue is also very delicious.”
The pink ball acted coquettishly and cutely, and Yun Aiguo immediately compromised.
"Okay, okay, Mianmian said to buy it, then let's buy it."
After the family of three had discussed it, they returned to the raw meat stall. The customer who had bought the pork leg was just leaving with a piece of pork leg.
When the after-sales representative saw the family of three coming back, he immediately asked Yun Yongcheng with a smile on his face, "Comrade, have you decided yet? Do you want to buy pork belly or pig's head?"
Yun Yongcheng pointed at the big pig's head.
"I want to buy this pig's head, comrade. Please weigh it for me."
"Okay."
As soon as Yun Yongcheng finished speaking, the salesperson used a sharp knife to poke a hole in the pig's head, passed a straw rope through the small hole, tied a knot, and then put it on the scale.
"That's twenty catties and a little over an ounce, comrade. I'll give you twenty catties, seventy cents a catty, a total of fourteen yuan."
Yun Yongcheng took out fifteen yuan from his trouser pocket.
This was the salary he had just received today. After buying the pig's head, he only had one dollar left.
