Chapter 55: Braised Food Attracts Greed
The 꿷 day is the day when people come to repair the house. I heard from the village chief that they only find good workers who will not cheat or play tricks. And there were many people looking for it, so it was done in one day. He also said that this is not repairing a house and the work is simple. Just give 15 cents per person.
Su Nuoli agreed and prepared some braised food for his family every day! And yesterday Sister Tangtang asked when it would be done. She must be anxious.
It just so happens that Brother 괗 and Sister Tangtang are in an ambiguous period recently, which just increases the chances of the two of them. With my help, it will definitely be faster. So I called Brother Ji to go to Chen's house and tell him that he could come and get the braised food at noon.
As a result, less than half an hour later, Sister Chen Tang and Master Chen came over and brought some snacks, saying that they felt embarrassed to eat for free.
Every day I still do it myself and let Aunt Du be the chef, because some things cannot be made without me.
When Zhao Gang, Yunlong, and Aunt Cai came back, Tangtang was shocked and asked, "Isn't this pig offal? It turns out that pig offal doesn't have much smell after being washed, and it can be used to make delicious food."
Seeing the future aunt's excited look, Su Nuoli said, "Of course, and I also prepared other things, you see: pig offal, pig's trotters, pig's ears, chicken legs, chicken wings, chicken feet, duck legs, duck wings, duck tongues, and I'll tell you a secret, I also prepared beef."
"What? You also bought beef. Cows are used for farming now and are rarely sold. You are really awesome. But is it all meat? What is that?" Sister Tangtang asked in a low voice for fear of being heard.
"Of course it's not all meat, otherwise it would be too greasy! I prepared lotus root slices, potatoes, bean curd sticks, and even asked my senior to buy a lucky bag of fish roe. Isn't your brother's favorite?"
"Then I'm in for a treat. Don't tell anyone else. I'm drooling just talking about this. I'll eat two, no, three bowls of rice."
"Okay, then I'll eat four bowls, haha! Okay, go wait for me outside, I'll give you some instructions and then I'll come find you."
Then he said to Xia Zhu, "Xia Zhu, the people who came to repair the house today are quite messy, so it's no fun to go to the hall. I guess my father is playing chess with Uncle Chen. Take Sister Tangtang to my room and cut the watermelon and mango we brought back."
A quarter of an hour later, Su Nuoli, who had handed in all his tasks, retired successfully. Half an hour later, the fragrance filled the air. When the engine was turned off after an hour, I guess people nearby could smell the odor, which was really overbearing.
But it tastes better when it is soaked in water, so I found four large basins to hold it. Because there was no one to work at home, Master Chen took the initiative to say, "Since the stewed food is better after soaking, why don't we eat it at dinner? It just so happens that my brother Ning hasn't played enough chess. But can you cut another plate of this fruit? It's so delicious. If it's convenient, I want to buy a few baskets."
"Why are you talking about money? My wife Ning has always envied me for finding such a good confidant in Mr. Mo. It's a pity that you two met too late. It's fate. Li girl, go pack two watermelons and 15 mangoes for your Uncle Chen." Grandpa responded with a smile.
"I'm so sorry, but I'm really disrespectful! Hahahahaha..."
When they were settling the bill for the workers in the evening, two of them mentioned that the food they had eaten in the morning was so delicious and asked if they could spend some money to buy something to eat.
