Chapter 429 Making Sausages
"Let it go." He Yuxiang put on his schoolbag: "I lost it."
Lin Chongping was so anxious that he scratched his head and said, "What can we do? Your family's relationship with the neighbors is average, so you can't get the title of "Three Good Families". "
"It's my fault that I didn't keep it well. So forget it if I can't get it."
He Yuxiang was unwilling in his heart, but this was the result and he had no choice.
It was his fault that he never considered that someone in the class would deliberately steal his letter.
Seeing that He Yuxiang was shrouded in gloom and a bit of hostility, Lin Chongping was afraid that if he continued to persuade him, it would backfire, so he comforted him, "Then explain it to your aunt, and we will strive for the Three Good Families next year."
"Um."
He Yuxiang responded indifferently.
The three of them walked home quietly. Xiaoyu knew that her brother hated to watch the faucet, but in order to win the silk banner at the end of the year, he worked hard in winter and summer, but in the end he had nothing...
Xiaoyu lowered her head and tears fell. Maomao was also very sad and kept rubbing his eyes. After returning home, they hugged each other and cried.
He Yuxiang's eyes were dark. Seeing them crying, the anger and depression in his heart dissipated a lot. "Don't cry, Xiaoyu, come here to work, Maomao, hurry to your music teacher's house."
“I don’t want to go today…”
"No."
He Yuxiang simply grabbed his arm and pulled him out of the door.
Maomao pouted and waved to his sister in pain, "Xiaoyu, we'll cry together when I come back."
"OK."
Xiaoyu stood up and waved to him.
He Yuxiang: “???”
Is there something wrong with these two?
After sending Maomao out the door, He Yuxiang directed his sister to work, while he took the meat coupons and money and carried a backpack to go to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Because he hadn't had his holiday yet, my uncle used his connections to buy seven pounds of meat.
He now carries a basket on his back to get the meat and casings.
After carrying it back, He Yuxiang first washed the pork and then cut it into small pieces.
After Chen Qing got home, he looked at the seven pounds of meat and thought that all of it could be turned into sausages. He was extremely excited and said, "I'll help chop the meat after dinner."
He Yuxiang: "Okay."
My aunt is not good at cooking.
But like Xiaoyu, she is very strong.
It takes at least an hour to chop seven pounds of meat into minced meat, which is quite tiring.
After He Yuan returned home, he casually cooked two dishes for dinner. After eating, the whole family prepared to stuff sausages together.
He Yuan first sharpened the two kitchen knives at home. The sound of the whetstones making a 'squeaking' sound gave Chen Qing goosebumps.
She took He Yuan's shiny kitchen knife and slammed it on the chopping board. The fat and lean pork was chopped into small pieces, and oil splattered everywhere.
"Don't just chop it. Once you feel it's chopped finely, turn it over, make it into a ball and chop it again!"
He Yuxiang hurried forward to give instructions.
"I don't want you to teach me, go wash the casings." Chen Qing felt that this guy had no patience at all: "He Yuan, come here quickly."
He Yuxiang has dead fish eyes.
His aunt was really lucky to have a good job, otherwise with her skills, she would have starved to death sooner or later.
He Yuan walked in with an old, sharpened kitchen knife.
There are two kitchen knives in the house. One is an old kitchen knife that Chen Qing’s family has had for a long time, and the other is one he bought. The old kitchen knife is really blunt.
"Our old kitchen knife is about to retire."
“Buy a new kitchen knife when it breaks.”
Kitchen knives are very expensive.
Having one at home is enough.
He Yuan nodded and walked forward to teach her how to chop the meat quickly.
Chen Qing understood immediately after hearing what he said, and started chopping very vigorously. She finally realized her talent in cooking: "You chop for a while and then go make the sausages. I'll chop the meat."
"OK."
He Yuan saw that she was having fun and didn't refuse.
The two of them chopped half of the meat first, and He Yuan went to wash the basin containing the meat. Then he put the meat into the basin, poured salt, sugar, white wine, five-spice powder, etc. into the basin and began to stir it.
The shiny meat filling immediately smelled fragrant. Xiaoyu handed the cleaned casing to her uncle. Smelling the aroma from the kitchen, her mouth was watering: "It smells so good~"
Chen Qing: “You can only eat it during the Chinese New Year.”
The sausage needs to be air-dried for half a month.
Xiaoyu was disappointed: "It's been a long time..."
"Of course."
They both sighed.
After Xiaoyu gave the casings to her uncle, she continued to help wash the pig casings.
To wash the softened pig casings, you just need to turn them over and over and rub them hard like washing socks.
But the casing was slippery and thin and translucent. Maomao held one end for her, and Xiaoyu flushed it with water, and the intestines slid out a long distance.
"Ouch! My intestines are running!"
Maomao tried to grab it in a panic.
He Yuxiang couldn't bear to look at it, so he simply turned his eyes away and went about his own business.
Inside the house, He Yuan took a tin funnel, put the sausage casing on it, and stuffed the meat filling into the funnel.
He Yuan kept stuffing and kneading the sausage, and it gradually swelled up.
Chen Qing thought it was amazing: "It doesn't seem that difficult to make sausage."
“It’s quite simple and can be kept for a long time.”
He Yuan wanted a firm sausage, so he kept an eye on it.
The courtyard also formed a perfect assembly line: Chen Qing chopped the meat, the children washed the casings, and He Yuan stuffed the sausages.
It didn't take long before He Yuan tied the stuffed sausages into sections with hemp ropes and hung them on bamboo poles to dry.
Looking at the sausages, Chen Qing felt a sense of accomplishment. He put his hands on his hips and boasted, "I chopped the meat!"
He Yuan praised: "That's great."
Chen Qingwei raised his chin, looking very proud.
She couldn't imagine that she would one day make sausages.
In her previous life, she had mostly seen sausages in supermarkets.
The sausages in the plastic vacuum bags are bright red, like handicrafts on an assembly line.
And now, the sausage casing in front of her was so thin that it was translucent, and she could smell a faint smell of salt.
Chen Qing watched, a little dazed. When he heard the three children discussing when to eat sausages, a gentle smile slowly appeared in his eyes.
The sausage is not obvious at night, but when it is exposed to the sun during the day, it becomes shiny and emits a faint meaty aroma.
After Chen Qing woke up in the morning, she would bring breakfast to look at her sausages, "They look so good."
Her sausages are really the best looking sausages, plump and very fragrant.
She was reluctant to leave until it was time to go to work.
He Yuan was afraid of being late, so he took her to work first.
The children knew that Xiaoyu and Maomao did not go out to play last night, but were making sausages. In the morning, they deliberately came to find Xiaoyu going to school, and then stared at the sausages with greedy eyes.
The dwarf tiger couldn't move and said, "Xiao Yu, I also call you auntie, can I come live in your house?"
Xiaoyu refused: "No, there is no bed for you to sleep in my house."
Shorty: "Don't you have your own room? I can put another bed in your room."
"no!!!"
Maomao made a burst of sound.
The dwarf covered his ears. People who study music are the scariest people in the world. "If you can't do it, then you can't do it."
He Yuxiang also looked unkind: "You go out first."
