Lu Minghui, "It's okay, I can do it."
My mother works so hard for the family, and I hope I can do something within my ability to alleviate her hardship.
"Okay, then let's get started!" Shen Li divided the large bowl of pig intestines into three large portions and placed them in the remaining bowls. The largest portion was hers, and the other two portions were given to Minghui, and the smaller portions were given to Duoduo.
While the two children were not paying attention, Shen Li took out a pair of children's rubber gloves, one large and one small, from the space.
"This blue pair is Minghui, and this pink pair is Duoduo," Shen Li said as she began to distribute the gloves.
The two children put on rubber gloves swiftly.
Worried that the contents of the pig's large intestine would dirty the children's clothes, Shen Li helped each of them put on an apron.
Shen Li rolled up Duoduo's puff sleeves and placed them on her shoulders, revealing her two white, tender and fleshy arms.
This way you won't get your sleeves dirty.
"Okay." Shen Li put on rubber gloves and said.
"We must first clean out all the dirt and odor in the large intestine." Shen Li said, "Let's carry the basin to the faucet in the yard and rinse it."
"Okay." Although it smelled stinky, Duoduo, her brother, and her mother were all doing the same thing, which made her feel happy that the whole family was working together.
She is not afraid no matter how dirty or smelly it is.
Duoduo ran out holding the basin.
"Duoduo, run slower." Shen Li smiled helplessly.
Lu Minghui also walked out carrying the basin.
Looking at the two children working actively, Shen Li felt relieved.
Soon, the mother and two other children came to the yard carrying the basin in their arms.
There is a well in the Lu family's courtyard, and a hot faucet is installed next to the well.
The three women came near the faucet. Shen Li took out three wooden benches and each of them sat on one. She found a long, soft tube from the side of the faucet, put one end on the mouth of the faucet, and aimed the other end at the bunch of pig intestines in her hand.
"Watch carefully. Just put the tube into the large intestine, turn on the faucet and start flushing. The water flow will clean out the feces in the pig's intestine." Shen Li began to demonstrate.
As the water flowed into the pig's intestines, extremely smelly black and green soup began to flow out of the green pig's intestines.
"Gee~" Duoduo stood up suddenly, ran to a place not far away and started to vomit.
"Duoduo, are you okay?" Lu Minghui's hands were also stained with pig intestines. He stood up and looked at Duoduo helplessly.
Duoduo shook her head. "It stinks."
"If you think it smells bad, don't do it. Mom and I will do it." Lu Minghui's gloves were stained with pig intestines and smelled a bit, so he didn't touch Duoduo. "You can wait for us in front of the grape trellis. It smells good there."
Duoduo originally wanted to go, but when she saw that her mother and brother didn't mind the smell, she complained about the smell and decided not to work. This was not good. If her brother could do it, she could do it too!
"No, I want to stay and wash the pig intestines!" Duoduo's soft and sticky face showed a fearless look.
"But it really stinks." said Lu Minghui.
"It's okay, I can do it!" Duoduo straightened her back and said in a baby voice.
She is a brave girl, brave and not afraid of difficulties!
Just like that, the three of them returned to the faucet.
The pig large intestine in Shen Li's hand has been cleaned. After washing, the pig large intestine shows a healthy light pink color, and some parts are whitish.
Duoduo and Minghui also started to clean up. The two children endured the stench and washed two or three times before finally cleaning out the dirt in their intestines.
"Mom, can this really be eaten?" Duoduo's soft and glutinous face was a little confused.
She had never seen anyone eat intestines before.
When she thought about the pile of stuff coming out of her intestines, she felt so dirty.
"You guys believe me." Shen Li smiled, "Let's go back to the kitchen."
The first cleaning is over, and there is still the second round of fishy removal.
Shen Li poured cooking wine and vinegar into the cleaned intestines. Vinegar and cooking wine can sterilize and remove fishy smells. Then, she pointed the faucet at the intestines again and filled the pig's large intestine with clean water. Gradually, the pig's large intestine began to swell and became long, bulging, a bit like a balloon. The surface of the pig's large intestine became somewhat transparent. Shen Li tied both ends of the pig's large intestine with a rope.
The pig intestines need to be marinated for ten minutes.
During this process, Lu Jing had boiled the spareribs in water to remove the fishy smell, and he had also washed all the mushrooms he had picked in the mountains.
The black truffles were cut into thin slices and placed on the plate, the matsutake mushrooms were also cut into thin white slices, the shimeji mushrooms were cut into shreds, Lu Jing also cut some fresh pork into strips, and as for the prawns sent by the sisters-in-law, they were all deveined, cleaned and placed on the plate, and the oysters had their shells pried open to reveal the white oyster meat inside.
In such a short period of time, Lu Jingzhi has done so much.
"Jing, you did a good job." Shen Li praised with curved lips.
"Shouldn't my wife give me a reward?" Lu Jing looked at Shen Li and said in a hoarse voice.
Shen Li: ...
The two kids are still here!
Her face blushed, she stood on tiptoe, and quickly kissed the man's angular profile. Just when Lu Jing was about to kiss her back, Shen Li quickly raised her hand to block Lu Jing's mouth, "The two children are still here."
"Wait for it tonight." The man's voice was deep and heavy.
Shen Li: ...
Her face couldn't help but get even hotter.
Lu Jing took the two children out.
While marinating the pig intestines, Shen Li first made a dish of braised spareribs.
She turned on the fire, put in some transparent rock sugar and started to stir-fry. When the rock sugar began to melt and turned a light golden color, she added scallions, ginger, garlic, pork ribs, and chopped potatoes and began to stir-fry continuously.
During this process, Shen Li sprinkled soy sauce, oyster sauce, and dark soy sauce.
In the pot, the ribs were fried with a crackling sound. Each piece of pink ribs was fried with a rich sauce-flavored red color, turning a little dark red, and each rib seemed to be coated with icing sugar.
Shen Li changed the heat to low, added some water, sprinkled a little salt, covered the pot and began to simmer over low heat.
During this process, the pig intestines were also marinated, and Shen Li started to stir-fry the pig intestines!
