When they arrived at the place, the two children were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths.
It was a farmer's market in the countryside, and the young aunt brought them to the meat stall!
The two of them had shining eyes. There were so many pieces of meat. They hadn’t seen so much meat in a long time!
Qiao Luoluo swallowed and bought a large piece of pork belly.
A fish was sold, and a large piece of fish oil and fish roe was dug out from the belly of the fish. The two little girls looked at it eagerly, their saliva watering with greed.
Qiao Luoluo took the children for another walk and bought each of them a flowered jacket and a beautiful new hairband.
I also bought a new pair of cloth shoes for my husband.
She spent most of the money she had on her, but she didn't feel bad about it.
What makes me sad is that these bills were all taken away by scumbags and bitches in the past. Almost every time the commune settled work points and Qiao Luoluo's parents sent something back, they would come over following the scent.
It's not about wanting this or that.
Sun Qian is her cousin after all, so he has the motive to cheat her out of something.
Wei Chenfeng is a high-level green tea man. He doesn't ask for it directly, but keeps hinting to her that he wants to eat meat, that he is tired recently, has lost weight, etc.
Damn it, I was such a fool before, I gave away a lot of things from home to support them.
Instead, she let herself, a decent man, and her two children starve.
Today she wants to make it up to these three men, and of course, she herself really wants to eat some meat!
On the way back to the village, the two children were jumping happily, singing and chattering.
Everyone was working at the moment, and there were not many people in the village. Otherwise, if she carried so much meat and fish, those gossipy women would definitely chatter for a long time.
Especially Aunt Cuilan next door, who always comes over to show off that she has a son.
He also always encouraged his son to bully his two nieces and provoked quarrels between Qiao Luoluo and Qin Wenzhan.
It's just very annoying.
When I entered my yard, it was already late. The braised pork had to be stewed in advance and it would take two or three hours to be tender and flavorful.
Qiao Luoluo rolled up his sleeves and started to work.
When the two little guys saw their aunt was about to work, they immediately came up to stop her, "Aunt, don't work, wait for your uncle to come back and do it, you sit down and rest!"
Qiao Luoluo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She guessed that these two kids were led astray by Qin Wenzhan. They were a little cute, so what could she do?
Qiao Luoluo squatted down and rubbed the faces of his two darlings, saying, "If you don't cook the meat quickly after buying it, it will go bad. If it goes bad, you can't eat it. Isn't that a waste?
Let's do it together and have dinner right after your uncle comes back, okay?"
The two little ones then puffed up their little faces like meat buns and nodded.
Swallow your saliva by the way!
Under Qiao Luoluo's command, Erbao stood on a small stool, raised his feet, scooped water with a small ladle, and poured it into the basin held by Dabao.
When the basin was full of water, he passed it to Qiao Luoluo, who then washed the pork belly and peeled potatoes.
Dabao poured out the water and took Erbao to pick vegetables from the private plot in their yard.
Qiao Luoluo lit a high fire, scalded the pork belly skin in a dry iron pan, and removed the pig hair on it.
Use a knife to scrape off the black paste on the surface, cut the meat into two-centimeter cubes, and stir-fry directly in a pan to produce lard.
Take it out, stir-fry with rock sugar to make it sugar-colored, then throw the pork belly in and stir-fry until it is colored.
While the two kids weren't looking, she took out a can of beer from the space and opened it.
I took a big sip, it was awesome!!
Pour the rest into the pot, put the bottle back into the space, then add various spices and add water to cover the pork.
Bring to a boil over high heat and then reduce to low heat for a simmer.
After a while, the aroma of meat filled the air, and the whole courtyard was filled with the smell of happiness!
The two little kids were so greedy that they squatted by the stove, staring at it with eager eyes.
Every once in a while, he would ask, "Auntie, when can we eat?"
Seeing that the two of them were so greedy, Qiao Luoluo took out two pieces of White Rabbit milk candies from his pocket and peeled them.
Each person put a piece in his mouth.
The two little ones narrowed their eyes happily, hugged her legs and kept thanking her, saying that they liked her.
Ah! Qiao Luoluo’s little heart is about to be melted by this cuteness!
Two hours later, the braised pork was soft and rotten, so potatoes and salt were added. When the potatoes were soft when poked with chopsticks, Qiao Luoluo took out the braised pork and placed it on the table with a plate.
After brushing the pan, pour some oil into it, coat the cleaned fish with flour, put it into the pan and fry until one side is golden brown and set, then carefully turn it over and fry the other side.
After both sides are shaped, add red bean paste, soy sauce, five-spice powder, garlic sprouts, and onions, then pour in a can of beer and simmer over low heat.
At this time, it was time to get off work. The aroma of cooking in the courtyard drifted into the street, and people could smell this intoxicating fragrance!
In this era, which villager doesn’t eat simple meals on weekdays and only have something oily during the New Year and other festivals?
One of the older brothers sniffed a few times and sighed in ecstasy, "Whose stew is this? It smells so good!"
"I still think there's fish. What day is this?"
"Damn it! I don't even need to eat it. I can finish three bowls of potato porridge just by sniffing it a few more times!"
…
Everyone started chattering.
This aroma is very different from the usual smell of stewed meat. It not only has the aroma of meat, but also an indescribable strange fragrance.
That’s because beer was not popular at that time. Even wealthy people in the city didn’t drink it often, let alone the country people using beer to stew meat.
The educated youth who passed by here also smelled the aroma and were so greedy that they kept drooling.
A little girl stamped her feet and acted coquettishly, "No, I can't stand it anymore. I want to bring the steamed bread over here and eat it just by smelling it. Woo woo woo, I really miss the braised pork my mom made!"
It made everyone laugh.
A boy next to them pointed at the Qin family's yard and said, "The fragrance is coming from there. I guess Qiao Luoluo's parents sent her something again. Brother Qin is cooking."
Everyone started chattering and envious of Qiao Luoluo for having such good parents.
Sun Qian and Wei Chenfeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and they were secretly delighted. Isn't it true that someone is handing them pillows when they are sleepy?
Qiao Luoluo’s things, aren’t they theirs?
I was just worried about how bad the food had been these days, so today they insisted that I had to go out and have a good meal.
