Ruan Mengmeng, who grew up in an orphanage, and her good best friend Zhang Xinxin are a pair of childhood friends who grew up together.
Despite their different personalities, the two girls re...
The night is getting darker and darker, and the surrounding environment is getting quieter and quieter...
…..
The next day, the sun was shining on their buttocks before Ruan Mengmeng and her brother slowly got out of bed.
Anyway, there is no need to go too early to collect grass for the pigs, so it doesn’t matter if you get up later.
After breakfast, Ruan Mengmeng thought about it and decided to go get two baskets of pig grass to complete today's task.
Then, come back early to make cured meat.
Part of it was kept for the brother and sister to eat, and the rest was mailed to Zhang Sinian in the army.
After several contacts, she found that Tian Kai and his friend both liked to eat meat.
At the current temperature, raw meat cannot be kept at all. It must be made into bacon and cured meat to prevent it from spoiling.
Ruan Mengmeng had no shortage of meat and game, as there was plenty of it in the space.
Just taking out some of it is enough for her to make cured meat.
Moreover, after a period of reproduction, the small animals inside have begun to proliferate.
Making some cured meats to eat can also help to create space and relieve some stress.
Yes, it relieves stress!
She is also worried because there is too much fat!
Since going to the countryside, she has never been to the black market again.
The things in the space kept growing, and the brother and sister alone could not finish eating them.
She was still wondering whether she should find some time to look for the black market here and clear out the things in the space.
What the other party needs is food, and what she needs is money. With mutual cooperation, it is definitely a win-win situation!
Time is limited, and the two of them already woke up late.
After breakfast, the brother and sister went straight to the back mountain.
They fought in a hurry and took away two baskets of pig feed.
After completing the task, the two of them ran back home early.
Ruan Mengmeng opened the door, took off the backpack on her back, and instructed Ruan Zilong who was behind her.
"Little brother, go light a fire and boil a pot of hot water!"
To make cured meat, you must first get the meat out.
She planned to make it with game.
Therefore, it must be cooked and killed immediately.
Hair removal is a delicate job, so I leave it all to my little brother.
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
Ruan Zilong didn't know that she was going to make bacon.
He just listened to whatever she said and never contradicted her.
The remaining rabbits and goats need to be skinned.
The task of skinning was Ruan Mengmeng's.
Take out all the chickens, ducks, rabbits, wild boars and wild goats that have been killed in the space.
In an instant, the eaves were filled with all kinds of game.
When Ruan Zilong saw this scene, his eyes widened.
For a moment, his brain was stuck.
"Little brother, I'll leave all the hair removal matters to you!"
Ruan Mengmeng laughed secretly in her heart.
This child looks so cute!
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Coming back to his senses, Ruan Zilong patted his chest and made a promise with a solemn look on his face.
"Okay, take the leg hair inside the kitchen!"
Ruan Mengmeng was a little bit amused and helpless.
She picked out the chicken and duck separately and handed them to him.
After running three or four times, Ruan Zilong finally moved all the chickens and ducks into the kitchen.
The remaining goats and rabbits were left for my sister to skin.
Seeing that he was busy, Ruan Mengmeng didn't waste any time. She picked up a wild goat and tied it to the peach tree in the yard.
Afterwards, there was suddenly a sharp knife in her hand.
In the rapid rotation, the blade has entered the body of the wild goat.
Her technique was pretty good, as she paddled all the way down along the wild goat's body.
After a while, a complete goat skin fell off the wild goat's body.
Right now, there is no extra time to knead the skin.
I can only put the sheepskin into the space first.
When she has nothing to do, Ruan Mengmeng will prepare it and take it out to clean it up.
The winter here is very cold, with the temperature outside reaching minus 30 to 40 degrees Celsius.
By then, the mixed sheepskin and rabbit skin will be very good for making gloves or scarves.
It is extremely warm, waterproof, cold-proof and rain-proof.
Most importantly, it’s all natural.
It took Ruan Mengmeng more than forty minutes to skin the two wild goats and eight fat rabbits.
Ruan Mengmeng did not throw away the internal organs and head, but put them into the space.
When you have time, take it out, wash it, and make it into a delicious dish.
At this time, Ruan Zilong in the kitchen was also nearing the end.
In order to make it cleaner, Ruan Mengmeng put the plucked chickens and ducks on the stove to burn.
When Rong Maomao came into contact with fire, he was burned to ashes in an instant.
It took more than an hour to clean the internal organs.
Ruan Mengmeng cut the larger wild goats into long strips.
The hare was also split in half.
If the pieces are too big, they will be difficult to marinate.
By then, the flavor won’t be absorbed into the food and it will easily go bad.
Besides, it won’t taste good that way.
As for pheasants and wild ducks, they are not big in size and can be pickled whole.
Ruan Mengmeng took out a bottle of strong liquor from the space.
Afterwards, all the processed meat was placed in an enamel basin.
Then, we started to give them a bath with strong liquor.
Rub it back and forth 360 degrees without any dead angle.
The smell of alcohol wafted in the air, and the whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of alcohol.
Ruan Zilong sniffed the air hard. It was a little pungent, but also a little pleasant.
"Sister, what does this smell like?"
He had never smelled such a strange smell.
It's a little pungent and a little fragrant. I can't tell what the smell is, but it makes people a little drowsy.
“This is the taste of strong liquor!”
Ruan Mengmeng pointed to the bottle beside her and explained patiently.
Ruan Zilong had never drunk alcohol, not even beer, so he didn't know him at all.
He moved closer to the bottle of liquor and stared at it inquiringly, trying to figure out something.
Unfortunately, this thing is completely different from the current white wine.
Whether it was the packaging or the wine inside, it was the first time he had seen them all.
"Do you want to give it a try?"
She stretched out her hand to signal Ruan Zilong, asking if he wanted to marinate the meat with her.
"Yes, I do!"
When he came to his senses, Ruan Zilong's eyes were shining.
He nodded quickly and agreed quickly.
Following Ruan Mengmeng's example, he scrubbed the meat in the basin bit by bit.
The white wine inside will penetrate into the meat.
The function of white wine is, on the one hand, to disinfect and sterilize.
On the other hand, it can remove the fishy smell of meat.
The most important thing is that after adding white wine, the cured meat will not spoil easily and can be stored for an unlimited time.
Seeing that Ruan Zilong was in high spirits, Ruan Mengmeng handed over all the remaining work to him.
"The rest is all yours. I'll go stir-fry some marinade!"
