Mrs. Ye was very anxious, but she could only wait until she returned home at night.
After a few people got home and rested for a while, Mrs. Ye couldn't help but get up and prepare to cook.
"Sister-in-law, why do you need to cook? Second sister-in-law and I will do it today." Third sister-in-law Ye quickly stopped her.
"It's not that hard to cook," said Mrs. Ye. "The main thing is that we brought back a pig. It just so happened that Mr. Cen taught me how to make roast suckling pig a few days ago, and I also brought back some seasonings.
“So I thought, isn’t this a coincidence?
"Maybe God wants me to make a roast suckling pig for you to try!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ye said, "I've only heard of this dish, but I've never eaten it."
"Isn't today a feast for us?" Third Sister-in-law Ye also said, "Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law and I are here to help you. We will do whatever you ask us to do and will absolutely obey your orders."
The three sisters-in-law went out chatting and laughing to prepare dinner.
Mrs. Ye went out to take down the piglet hanging on the back of the car.
This little pig looks to be about one and a half months old, and is estimated to weigh about eight or nine kilograms, which is the perfect size for making roast suckling pig.
"Let's boil a pot of water first and let the piglet recover." Mrs. Ye handed the task of cleaning the piglet to Mrs. Ye Er and Mrs. Ye San, and went to prepare other materials herself.
The two of them worked together and quickly cleaned up the piglet, draining the blood and cleaning its fur.
Mrs. Ye had already prepared the seasonings. She spread them evenly on the suckling pig's belly, then found two pieces of wood and stuffed them in to prop up the suckling pig.
This step was really not easy to perform. Mrs. Ye had never seen it before, so she could only try her best to follow Mr. Cen's description and her own experience in making other dishes. After struggling for a long time, she finally got it right.
After the suckling pig was marinated, Mrs. Ye continued to pour hot water that had been boiled and then left for a while on the pig's skin until the surface of the suckling pig became hard, and then she wiped off the water droplets hanging on it.
Then melt the malt sugar, add white wine and Zhejiang vinegar, mix well, and brush it evenly on the suckling pig.
"Second son's wife, hang this up to dry.
"Third daughter-in-law, go and light the fire."
Mrs. Ye found two thick forked branches and placed them on the ground, then placed the suckling piglet, which was pierced by a thin wooden stick, on top of them.
"Second daughter-in-law, you keep the fire going, and third daughter-in-law, you are responsible for turning the suckling pig continuously."
As Mrs. Ye spoke, she continued to prick the pig's body with a needle to drain as much moisture as possible from the meat.
The three people were each responsible for their own part of the work. They were a little hesitant at the beginning, but they soon became well-coordinated.
It's almost done when the fat that keeps coming out of the pig turns clear and whitish.
Finally, Mrs. Ye brushed a layer of sesame oil on the pig and roasted it for a while.
While the three sisters-in-law were busy roasting the suckling pig, the children in the family had already returned home from school.
Ye Changnian, carrying his small schoolbag, sniffed and said, "What a nice smell!" before he even entered the door.
Ye Changxue said without giving his brother any face: "I think you are hungry!"
"No, second brother, it smells really good!" Ye Changzhao also smelled the fragrance.
Ye Changfeng suddenly remembered something and suddenly quickened his pace, overtaking the other people and running into the house quickly.
As soon as he saw the car parked in the yard and the mule slowly eating hay in the barn, Ye Changfeng immediately ran towards Old Lady Ye's house.
"Grandma, is my sister back?"
Before Old Lady Ye could say anything, Ye Changfeng saw Qingtian sitting on the kang.
"Fourth brother!" Qingtian called out happily.
Ye Changzhao dropped his schoolbag and climbed onto the kang, but after sitting next to Qingtian, he didn't know what to say.
The other four people followed in and realized that Qingtian had returned. They all crowded into Old Lady Ye's room.
Old Madam Ye smiled and said to Qingtian, “You don’t know, during the few days you were out seeing the doctor, the five of them came over to ask about you every day after returning from the private school.
"Grandma, why hasn't my sister come back yet?
"Five people ask this eight times a day. My ears are almost callused from hearing it!"
After hearing this, Qingtian quickly took out the candy that Boss Ye bought for her in the capital and generously distributed it to her five brothers.
Old Madam Ye said quickly, "It's almost time for dinner. Don't eat candy yet. We have something delicious to eat in the evening. If you eat candy now, you'll be at a loss if you can't eat it later."
Qingtian hurriedly told them, "My mother is going to make roast suckling pig today!"
"What is roast suckling pig?"
"I don't know, I haven't eaten it."
"I don't know. Is it meat?"
Nowadays, eating meat is not as attractive to the children of the Ye family as before. Instead, the candies that cannot be bought in the village are more tempting.
Old Mrs. Ye was about to give a few more instructions when Qingtian suddenly said, "Disobedient children are not allowed to eat the food my mother cooks."
The five brothers immediately put away the candies and said they would not eat them before dinner.
"I think Qingtian is the only one who can control you now. When Qingtian speaks, he is more effective than your parents."
“Who says it’s not?”
Mrs. Ye Er and Mrs. Ye San came in carrying the roasted suckling pig, and immediately echoed in unison when they heard this.
Mrs. Ye San put down the suckling pig and looked at the two devils in her family lying on the kang.
"I can't say a hundred words as effectively as one from Qingtian. In my opinion, Qingtian should be the one to help them learn to read and write. That would be much more effective than us. Qingtian, is that okay?"
"Okay!" Qingtian felt that he had been entrusted with an important task. He immediately sat up straight and patted his chest and said, "I will definitely supervise them."
