The four of them chatted and laughed while playing around and went to buy seasonings.
It was already late afternoon when we returned to the village.
In order to go out and sell goods earlier tomorrow morning, the four decided to salt the intestines today.
Soaking the salted intestines overnight will make them more flavorful.
They didn't dare to go back and went to the newly built house of Shen Jiaojiao and Xu Mo.
Next to the well, two grown men looked at a pile of slippery and greasy things and didn't know where to start.
The large intestine has not been cut yet, and it is bulging with pig feces.
To be honest, they really don't dare to do it!
But only they can do this.
The two men blocked their noses and carefully cleaned their large intestines.
Watching the pig feces slide out of the intestines, in less than a moment, half a bucket was filled.
Xu Fugui really couldn't help it and vomited.
"Gee... can you really eat this? I hope it won't make you sick after taking a bite!"
(Shooting a gun means diarrhea.)
He began to wonder, how could such a smelly thing be sold for money? It would be good enough if it didn't lose money.
Things that no one wants will not be popular.
Xu Mo didn't want to say anything now and just focused on cleaning.
He just wanted to finish quickly and wash his hands thoroughly.
If there is any smell left on his hands, his wife will definitely dislike him.
If his wife doesn't let him touch her, he will be very sad.
Cleaning the large intestine is very laborious. After all the feces inside are cleaned out, you have to rub it with flour until there is no dirt on the large intestine.
Xu Fugui felt heartbroken when he saw the flour being poured into the large intestine!
How much does this cost?
Can the cost be recovered?
Don’t let yourself lose everything you have.
While the two men were cleaning the large intestine, the two women were preparing the seasonings and washing onions, ginger, garlic, etc.
Li Ermei was still very nervous. While peeling garlic, she asked anxiously, "Jiaojiao, do you think mother would scold me if she knew about this? After all, this is speculation. Mother is such a stubborn person, I feel that she would definitely not agree with us doing this."
Shen Jiaojiao said without raising her head, "Don't worry! Mom is not stubborn at all and is very open-minded. Let's talk to her and she will definitely support us."
"But I'm still afraid. I've never been afraid of anyone in my life, except for my mother."
Li Ermei also found it funny.
She has always been a strong person, but when she met the even stronger Liu Xiaolan, she turned into a quail and did not dare to confront Liu Xiaolan head-on.
"Jiaojiao, I'm telling you a joke! When I first married into the Xu family, my personality was totally incompatible with my mother's. We had many arguments, but I always lost, and I just couldn't accept it!
Very cute. Why does my mother curse so much, without repeating herself, and can make people speechless?
So in order to win an argument against my mother in the future, I started to learn how to curse from her. Later, I became so crazy that I even went to ask my mother for help in person.
As a result, my mother scolded me for the whole day. Later, I learned her way of scolding people, but from then on I never dared to quarrel with her again.
Because when I see her, I feel guilty and my calves start to tremble."
Shen Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing and said, "Second sister-in-law, could it be that you were scolded and the shadow in your heart came out? It turns out that if you want to defeat someone, you have to fight poison with poison!"
Shen Jiaojiao raised her head with a smile, and then she saw Liu Xiaolan who had appeared out of nowhere and was standing behind Li Ermei.
Li Ermei was oblivious and said with a smile, "Anyway, I think my mother has a very vicious tongue."
"Ahem... Second sister-in-law, mother is here."
Li Ermei paused, turned her head, and saw Liu Xiaolan with a gloomy expression behind her.
I almost knelt down on the spot.
Li Ermei quickly stood up and stammered, "Mom, when I said you have a sharp tongue, I was just exaggerating how great you are, I didn't mean anything else.
Don’t get me wrong.”
Liu Xiaolan looked at Li Ermei in silence for a long time before she looked away. She looked at the two people who were still cleaning the pig intestines and said, "I was wondering why you bastards haven't been home in the past few days. It turns out you were doing something bad behind my back!"
Shen Jiaojiao quickly stood up, walked to Liu Xiaolan, took her hand and said coquettishly, "Mom, we just want to get some pig intestines to sell for some money.
You also know that my second brother and his wife are under a lot of pressure. They had to come up with this idea just to give their children a good life. Don't be angry. We are not children anymore and we know our limits."
Shen Jiaojiao winked at Li Ermei who was still in a daze.
Li Ermei understood immediately, and she also took Liu Xiaolan's other arm and said, "Mom, we really want to work hard and make more money."
Liu Xiaolan pondered for a while, said nothing, and walked out of the yard.
Li Ermei became even more worried, "Jiaojiao, mother seems to be angry."
"I don't think so! When my mother gets angry, she just scolds me directly. She won't hold it in like this."
Li Ermei nodded thoughtfully, "It seems to make sense!"
After a while, Liu Xiaolan came back.
And he walked towards me mysteriously, holding something.
She carefully placed the things in her arms on the stone table in the yard, and then peeled off the wrapping cloth layer by layer. Finally, inside was a very historical... cookbook.
Liu Xiaolan lowered her voice and said, "Jiaojiao, do you know why my cooking is so delicious?"
Shen Jiaojiao's eyes wandered over the cookbook.
"Did mother learn the dish from this recipe?"
“Yes.”
Liu Xiaolan carefully wrapped the recipe again.
He said, "I exchanged this cookbook with me a few years ago by a passer-by begging for food. At that time, the man had nothing to eat, and he gave me this cookbook in order to ask for some food from me.
He said that this was his family's ancestral recipe. His ancestors used to be chefs in the palace, specializing in preparing meals for the emperor.
Alas! But later, when the recipe was passed down to his generation, he encountered turbulent times and didn’t dare to keep it.
But he was reluctant to burn such a precious thing, so he kept it close to his body. Later, when he was really hungry, he had to use it to exchange for food.
Originally, no one dared to take this thing in the past few years, let alone exchange it for food. But when I took a look at the contents on the menu, it was definitely the result of the hard work of several generations to perfect such an error-free menu.
Moreover, they are all ancient recipes, the cooking techniques are very sophisticated, and the taste of the dishes is unique.
I really couldn't bear to miss such a valuable thing, so I bravely exchanged it with the man for food.
I regretted it after the change because I was afraid of getting into trouble.
But luckily, I have kept it well hidden for so many years, so it is OK."
Liu Xiaolan sighed and said, "The reason why I brought it out today is for you. Since you want to make large intestines to sell, you must have good cooking skills.
But who among you can stand out as a chef?"
Those who are not good at cooking suddenly felt ashamed!
Liu Xiaolan added, "There is a method for making large intestines in this recipe. I will teach you later."
