"Is the meat grinder ready?"
Ruan Meng could not hide her excitement. According to her imagination, the meat grinder was somewhat similar to the blender in her previous life.
The machine has a circular body on top, with several layers of rotating blades around the inner wall. The body is connected to a pedal by hemp rope, and the pedal provides power.
Ruan Meng, holding onto the fuselage, kept praising it.
Ruan Meng asked Xiao Kai to help rinse the inside of the meat grinder. Lao Er originally wanted to help, but Ruan Meng immediately stopped him.
The second brother sheepishly stopped, leaving the four craftsmen somewhat puzzled.
Ruan Meng took out a piece of the remaining large piece of braised meat and threw it into the cleaned meat grinder, asking her second brother to help pound it. The second brother felt useful and his face became much more excited.
The blade was initially stiff, but once the second person got the rhythm right, aside from some meat scraps flying everywhere, the meat-grinding effect was surprisingly good.
Master Huang humbly explained, "I was afraid the young lady would be in a hurry, so the blades were cut from our existing daggers and knives. If we had more time..."
"Once the iron-smelting furnace is ready, we can hammer out the blades to the desired shape, and the effect should be even better."
Ruan Meng was already very satisfied with the results of the first unit.
Since the third brother wasn't home, Ruan Meng went to invite the two sisters-in-law from the Song family.
Knowing that Ruan Meng was someone he would definitely teach his wife something, the two Song brothers supported this and took the initiative to take care of the child.
Ruan Meng taught her two sisters-in-law how to knead dough. After it had risen, the dough pieces they pinched off were a little larger than usual.
The second child asked curiously, "Little sister, are you making steamed buns or pancakes so late?"
Ruan Meng smiled slightly, "Roujiamo!"
I just minced some braised meat. This was a spur-of-the-moment idea from Ruan Meng, and it's perfect for everyone as a late-night snack.
He then took out two large pieces of braised meat and handed them to his second brother, asking him to grind them together.
Ruan Meng washed a bunch of wild shepherd's purse and chopped it up with a knife.
Sister-in-law Song asked, "Little sister, why don't you just throw it into the meat grinder and grind it all together?"
Ruan Meng replied, "I'm worried that if the blade gets tangled, it will be difficult to clean."
Sister-in-law Song nodded. After pinching off the dough pieces, she spread them into thick pancakes as instructed by Ruan Meng. Ruan Meng glanced at the iron pot...
Once the craftsmen are reminded to build the iron smelting furnace as soon as possible, they can make a frying pan.
Ruan Meng asked Sister-in-law Song to steam cakes, while Sister-in-law Song watched the heat.
The second brother brought in the minced braised pork filling. Ruan Meng mixed in the chopped shepherd's purse, stirred it well, and asked her second brother to bring paper and pen so she could write down how to make the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger).
After recording everything, Ruan Meng asked her second brother to remind the craftsmen and others to wait a while. To celebrate the craftsmen's achievements, Ruan Meng prepared a late-night snack.
Over a hundred flatbreads were steamed. The two sisters-in-law of the Song family were seeing this method for the first time and found it very novel, but they didn't feel tired at all.
They knew that Ruan Meng was giving them the method so that they would have another way to make a living.
Once all the pancakes were out of the oven, Ruan Meng demonstrated two, cutting the pancakes in half and stuffing them with braised meat filling, dividing each pancake into four pieces.
Ruan Meng popped a piece into her second brother's mouth and asked him with a smile, "How is it?"
The second child opened his eyes wide, speechless, and gave a thumbs up.
"Let Xiao Kai and A Yuan in."
The second brother turned around, and Xiao Kai and A Yuan quickly came in.
At Ruan Meng's prompting, Song's two sisters-in-law each tried a small piece.
They had imagined the taste of roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) based on the flavor of braised pork, but they never expected that it could taste so good when combined with flatbread and shepherd's purse.
Both of them were overjoyed.
"Not bad, right?"
Ruan Meng asked with a smile, "If you learn this, you can easily set up a breakfast stall and make it a specialty."
The two sisters-in-law of the Song family nodded gratefully.
Xiao Kai and A Yuan were touched and proud to learn that Ruan Meng had given them priority in tasting the dishes.
They took a small piece of meat sandwich, chewed it a few times, and then stared wide-eyed at the two small pieces left on the table, speechless.
After swallowing, he praised her wildly.
"It's so delicious!"
"Young lady, how did you grow up? How can you make such delicious simple flatbread?"
"That's right, that's right, I can grow big enough to eat several in one go!"
......
Ruan Meng smiled and turned around to look at the two sisters-in-law of the Song family.
"You see the business opportunity?"
Sister-in-law Song and Sister-in-law Song nodded with smiles, "What can we say about something that the young lady made?"
Together, the group stuffed the remaining flatbreads with braised meat.
After they were served, each person took one.
Ruan Meng asked A Yuan to deliver it to her masters.
A little while later, A-Yuan returned with a delighted expression and said:
"Miss, the young master has finished eating. The young lady has also eaten almost half of it!"
Ruan Meng smiled and nodded, "It's hard to digest at night, so Miss Mu En really shouldn't eat too much. If you like it, I'll make it again next time."
A-Yuan blinked. Do it again? He'd be getting a free ride again.
Ruan Meng told A Yuan to continue eating, and also to take some for Cai Ju and the others.
The sound of the tide subsided, and in the distance, one could hear the sounds of villagers gathering seafood.
Ruan Meng's gaze shifted to the meat grinder, and she remembered a dish she loved in her past life.
