Chapter 61: Braised

"Stay away from me!" Su He frowned.

"Oh, are you disgusted? I didn't see you miss a single bite when we were eating last night!" Su Ying mocked, "Get to work, or you won't get any tonight!"

"Humph! Who cares about these filthy things!" Su He fanned the air with his hands. "Su Lu, you're not crazy because of poverty, are you?"

Su Lu, who was working honestly, didn't expect the fire to burn herself. She frowned unhappily and ignored Su He.

"Tsk! It's easy to fool a fool like you who can't even make a fart after three kicks!" Seeing that Su Lu didn't say anything, Su He felt annoyed and started to criticize.

"Su He! You talk too much nonsense when I tell you to work! You can't live without getting scolded every day?" Su Ying pulled Su He and pressed her hand into the pig intestines.

"Ah!" Su He let out a sharp cry, "Su Ying, I'm going to kill you!"

When Su He's hand touched the sticky fat intestines, he felt nauseous and got goose bumps all over his body. He screamed and beat Su Ying.

Su Ying let go of Su He. Su He took several steps back and looked at the sticky juice on his hands. His stomach churned and he vomited. Ugh, vomit!

He ran to the side and vomited non-stop, vomiting out everything he had eaten last night, all of which smelled sour and rotten.

"Ahe, what's wrong?" The scream woke Xiao Qinshi up. She rushed out and saw her daughter vomiting non-stop.

"Ahe, what's going on? Ah?" Xiao Qin rushed to her daughter, but was almost stopped in her tracks by the sour smell.

"Ugh, ugh!" Su He vomited up all the acid and bile, his face turned blue and black, "Su Ying, damn Su Ying!"

He wiped the acid and bile from his mouth with his sleeve, and vomited until his eyes were filled with tears.

After wiping it, he suddenly remembered that there was still fat intestine mucus on his hand. He smelled the smell of feces and felt sick again. "Ugh, ugh!"

I couldn't vomit anything, but my stomach kept churning.

"Su Ying, you're bullying Chengluer again! You black-hearted person!"

Xiao Qinshi had her hair disheveled, eye mucus stuck to the corners of her eyes, and a few straw marks on her cheeks. She was baring her teeth and clawing like a shrew.

"What are you yelling about? Do you think it's reasonable to sleep in so early in the morning? What's the matter? Do you two, mother and daughter, think you are superior to others? You are complaining about this and that. It seems you are not hungry enough!" Su Ying calmly opened the pig intestines and cleaned them inside.

"Woo..." Looking at the brown filth hanging on the intestinal oil net in clumps, Xiao Qin's stomach churned violently.

He ran to Su He and vomited violently, and the air was filled with a strong sour and rotten smell.

"Hey! If you want to vomit, go away. It's making this place stink. Can't I even have breakfast?" Wei was about to be defeated by the mother and daughter.

Su Ying brought over a basin of water and said, "Make way!"

Xiao Qinshi held her stomach and struggled to move away. She vomited until her hands and feet were weak. It was too disgusting! Su Ying, that damn girl, was so disgusting!

"Splash!" Su Ying poured a basin of water over to wash away the sour smell of the vomit.

If she doesn't rinse it off, Su Ying will vomit.

The mother and daughter squatted there and vomited again and again, without moving for a long time.

Su Ying poured two basins of water in a row to wash away the filth.

Everyone held their bowls of porridge silently and kept away from Xiao Qin and the others.

Today's porridge is thick, drink it up in one gulp and then do whatever you want.

The mother and daughter supported each other and went to the stream to rinse their mouths, wipe their faces, and came back to drink the porridge.

Mrs. Du and Mrs. Wei cleared the dishes and went to wash them, ignoring the mother and daughter.

Su Laoer and Su Laosan went to fetch water and filled the big water tank.

Su Ying went to the stream and washed the sewage thoroughly.

"Aying! Can you eat this water?" Wei couldn't help asking.

They had never eaten this thing before. Yesterday, Mrs. Du only washed the outside and didn't clean the inside of the intestines at all. She didn't expect there were so many contents.

"Of course you can eat it! I bought spices to remove the odor! It will smell so good once it's done!" Su Ying put the washed drainpipe into the basin.

"How do you know? What's in your head? You know everything!" Wei laughed.

"I'm so hungry that I eat everything!" Su Ying smiled.

When they came back, the men all went to work in the fields. In front of the stove were two bamboo bowls containing the food that Xiao Qin and her daughter had eaten.

The mother and daughter went back to the house to lie down.

Du and Wei looked at each other. Are they not going to pretend anymore? They are not even going to save face and are going to give up completely?

"Mother!" Su Ying saw her mother was going to collect it and shook her head slightly at Mrs. Du.

If there is one, there will be two. Don't indulge such people. Since you are not going to eat it yourself, just leave it where it is. Next time, just serve it with rice and see who gets disgusted.

"Sister-in-law, listen to Aying!" Wei pulled Du and agreed with Su Ying's approach.

"You mischievous ghost!" Mrs. Du said with a smile to her brother, sister-in-law and daughter.

"Hehe, is he spoiled?" Su Ying smiled mischievously.

Fill a clay pot with water, bring it to a boil, put the offal in and blanch it for a few minutes, then remove it.

Mrs. Du and Mrs. Wei were watching from the side. They had never seen Su Ying do these things before.

"Aying, the water doesn't seem to be cooked yet!" Mrs. Du reminded.

"I know, mother. This is called blanching to remove the fishy smell. The blanching water must be poured away before you start braising!" Su Ying explained as she did it.

"Oh!" Du and Wei looked at it very seriously, like primary school students.

Su Lu and Xiao Tao looked at her with admiration. Sister is so capable and knows everything!

Change the water and bring it back to a boil, then remove the spice bag.

"Wow! These things are not cheap!" Wei was amazed. "They cost a lot of money, didn't they?"

"Aunt San, this can be made into a marinade and used many times!" Su Ying grabbed the marinade and put it into the clay pot.

She didn't know the correct proportions of the spices, so she just grabbed some roughly.

Wrap up the rest and store it for later use.

He took two grains of coarse salt and threw them in, Wei's heart aching.

After a while, the earthenware jar was filled with fragrance.

Su Ying put the blanched offal into a clay pot. After the water boiled, she dipped chopsticks in the water to taste the saltiness.

He took out the soy sauce jar and poured some in.

"Enough, enough!" Wei finally couldn't help it and hurriedly shouted to stop.

Oh my god! At least one-fifth of the soy sauce was poured out! Wei was so anxious that he almost reached out to grab it, but was stopped by Su Lu.

"Don't worry, Third Aunt. With so many ingredients, if you don't put enough in, the flavor won't be suppressed when you cook them, and it will be a waste of the marinade." Su Ying was amused by Wei.

As soon as the soy sauce is added, the aroma changes instantly, the smell of offal is suppressed, and the air is filled with the rich aroma of braising liquid.

Old Mrs. Su, who was basking in the sun, moved silently towards this side, staring at the earthenware jar and swallowing her saliva.

The young men who had just returned from collecting rotten soil smelled it and ran back to take a look. "What the hell? I'm so greedy!"

"Aying, is this what we're going to eat tonight?" Su Zhaoyan and Su Bingyan didn't go to work and squatted by the stove.

"Of course! Does it smell good?"

"It smells good!" The two kids were drooling.

"Go to work! Otherwise you won't have anything to eat!" Su Ying pinched the noses of her two cousins.

"Oh!" The kid heard it and went to work with a winnowing basket in his hand.

"Mother, cook until you can pierce it with a chopstick. It means it's done. Take it out and braise the pork head. If it's too bland, add a little salt.

After braising, store the ingredients in a bamboo tube for next use." Su Ying instructed Mrs. Du.

"You do it, mommy go to work!" Mrs. Du had almost learned everything.

"Mother, I have something to do and need to go to the village!" Su Ying held Mrs. Du back.
