The whole mountain is my hunting ground.

Chapter 626 Zhao Youcai Came Home With Delicious Food

In Zhao Jun's house, a large group of people crowded around the kang table, each holding a wild boar rib and gnawing on it.

The pork ribs, which are still steaming just out of the pan, are delicious to eat while they are still warm.

The cleanly gnawed bones were thrown together, and the people who finished eating the ribs split into two groups.

The women cut the square meat and prepared pork livers and lungs in the house, while Zhao Jun, Wang Qiang, and Zhang Yuanmin went outside to fill the remaining broth in the big pot, and when they came back, they mixed pig blood and prepared blood sausages.

Fresh pig blood is mixed with broth, chopped green onion, minced ginger and seasoning are added, one end of the prepared intestines is tied tightly, and pig blood soup is poured into it along the other end with a funnel.

Every once in a while, it is tightened with a thread.After filling the blood sausage, put it in a pot with cold water and boil it in Zhao Jun's big pot.

The inside is pig blood soup, and the outside is a thin casing. If it is cooked vigorously, the blood sausage will definitely bulge.Therefore, the water for boiling blood sausage cannot be boiled, and it must be kept bubbling at the edge of the pot.

This requires adding a small amount of cold water one by one, and when the blood sausage is almost ready, prick a few small holes on its surface with a needle.This is also to prevent the blood sausage from bursting.

The task of cooking the blood sausage was handed over to the old lady, and Zhao Jun and the three men went out to the yard with a large bowl of sauerkraut.

At this time, there was still more than half of the broth in the big pot outside, so Zhao Jun, Wang Qiang, and Zhang Yuanmin put sauerkraut in the broth.

Sauerkraut is what you eat because of its texture and taste.Needless to say the taste, Aunt Qi has lived half her life, and the pickled cabbage is white and crisp.

As for the taste, after cutting up the sauerkraut gang just now, the big guy divided up the eight sauerkraut hearts.

Eating sauerkraut with an empty mouth is also a kind of poor people's pleasure in Northeast China.But after eating for a long time, I became more and more proud of this mouthful.

And since I haven't eaten this for a long time, a group of people quickly divided up the sauerkraut heart, and then discussed that Auntie Qi pickled this sauerkraut, and it tasted delicious.

And shredded sauerkraut should not be blanched.Just soak it twice in clean water, then squeeze the water to make it into a ball, and put it in a basin in a ball.

Zhao Jun, Wang Qiang, and Zhang Yuanmin took lumps of sauerkraut, crushed them with their hands, scattered them into the broth.

Eight sauerkraut almost filled the cauldron.And with so much sauerkraut, one meal is definitely not enough.But the stewed sauerkraut in the pig-killing dish, the more delicious it is, the more delicious it is, today's meal is not as good as tomorrow's.

While the three of them were eating sauerkraut, Jin Xiaomei ran out of the house and came to the door to look at the remaining pork.

At this time, there was still a pig's head, a pig's tail, four pig's feet, four pig's legs, and pieces of pork skin left on the door panel.

The wild boar weighed more than 190 kilograms before it was alive. After being disemboweled, bled and shed, there were still [-] to [-] kilograms left.

The thirteen dogs of Zhao and Li's families killed about fifty catties.Especially Heihu, as if he hasn't had enough to eat for several years.

The rest of the meat, except the ones on the door panel and the bloody neck meat in the house to be stuffed, is the meal for tonight.

Jin Xiaomei grabbed a wild boar's front leg, said hello to the three of them, and left. She took the pig leg to Aunt Qi.

And Zhao Jun also pulled a front leg, intending to give it to Zhao Guofeng.The friendship between the two families is very deep, starting from Zhao Jun's father and Zhao Guofeng's father, the two families have been in frequent contact.

This can't invite people to dinner, but a pork leg must be given away.

When Zhao Jun left, Wang Meilan was already next door, starting to boil the oil in Li's pot.

The oil boiled out of lard is called Hunyou, also called Dayou.The lard suet is dried, leaving golden and crispy lard residue, which is also called oil shuttle or oily.

This thing may feel greasy after being eaten for ten or twenty years.But in these days, most adults are still reluctant to eat it.For children to eat, it has to be a boy to eat two more pieces.

Zhao Jun hurried to Zhao Guofeng's house with a pig's leg in his hand, thinking that he would send the pig's leg to him and come back by himself.Then I took another wild boar thigh, which had to be sent to Ma Ling's house.

It's mid-October, and after this year, Zhao Jun and Ma Ling will get married.During this period, Lao Ma's family would not easily come to Zhao Jun's house for dinner.So they didn't invite their family for this pig-killing dish, but still the same sentence, there must be a pig thigh.

After the two families have finished walking, it is estimated that the oil will be out of the pan when it is oily, and the oil that has just been out of the pan is dipped in some salt noodles, that taste... Zhao Jun quickened his pace when he thought of this.

According to Zhao Jun's thinking, Zhao Guofeng should be in the village at this time of day.That's why Zhao Jun sent him the wild boar thigh to his home.But what Zhao Jun didn't expect was that Zhao Guofeng was at home.

When Zhao Jun called for someone at the gate of the courtyard, Zhao Guofeng came out of the house running and jolting, and said in front of Zhao Jun, "Oh, Xiaojun, uncle is still thinking about when to find you."

"This..." Zhao Guofeng didn't say anything, Zhao Jun knew what he was going to do, so he quickly handed the wild boar's thigh forward and said, "Uncle Zhao, kill the pig and get you a thigh."

"Jun, thank you, Uncle." Zhao Guofeng took the wild boar's thigh with one hand, grabbed Zhao Jun's arm with the other, and said directly: "Uncle, I have something else I want to ask you. Look, during the Chinese New Year, help Uncle also catch two pigs." chant."

Zhao Guofeng was very satisfied with what Zhao Jun did for Zhao Guofeng before.And Zhao Jun came back from catching wild boars today, which gave Zhao Guofeng a new idea.

Therefore, after Zhao Guofeng heard the news, he returned home from the village and asked his wife to take back all the money she had earned from selling wild pork, and planned to invest in Zhao Jun again.

He spoke directly, Zhao Jun laughed dryly, and said, "Uncle Zhao, we'll talk about this matter later, I have to go to Ma Ling's house to have a look."

"Ah!" He was going to the future father-in-law's house, Zhao Guofeng couldn't stop him, he just said: "That's fine, then come to my uncle's house if you have time."

"Yeah." Zhao Jun responded casually, turned around and drove home.When they got home, they dragged another wild boar's hind legs from the door and ran straight to Ma Ling's house.

When Zhao Jun arrived at Ma Ling's house, the couple were working in the yard.Now, although Wang Cuihua's feet are still not straight, they can walk and walk with the gauze wrapped around them.

The weather is fine today, but it will rain tomorrow, so Wang Cuihua and Ma Ling are packing beans at home.

The soybeans that had just been harvested this year were put into bags by the mother, and then moved to the cabinet in the warehouse.

Seeing Zhao Jun coming, the two women were not too surprised, they went out together to welcome Zhao Jun in.

But Zhao Jun, who was worried about going home and had a good meal, handed the pork leg to Ma Ling, said a few polite words, and ran home.

When they got home, not only the oil was ready, but even the blood sausages were cooked, and they were put in a basin to soak them in clear water.

Zhao Jun went to the kang table and shared the oil with everyone.This stuff is delicious when it is just out of the pan, it is fragrant, crispy and crispy, and the mouth is full of oily fragrance when chewed.

Jin Xiaomei came back later than Zhao Jun, and she didn't have time to eat oil after she came back, so she said to Wang Meilan: Sister-in-law, I just remembered, what do we people eat as a staple food at night?Shouldn't you be in a hurry to make an appointment at this time?How about cooking some rice? "

There is no yeast in these years, and soda is all used for the dough, and the soda is not only slow, but also needs to have a certain temperature.It's cold inside and outside the house this autumn, so we have to put the reconciled noodles on the kang, and then cover them with quilts and let them sleep overnight.

It's definitely not in a hurry to make noodles at this time, but Wang Meilan smiled confidently, and said to Jin Xiaomei: "Sister and sister, let's go to your house to fry meatballs, and make your pot stew rice with beans."

As soon as Wang Meilan finished speaking, the old lady who was eating too much was stunned.

Bean rice is to add some red beans to the rice and steam it together.It sounds like nothing, but in Northeast China at this time, bean rice is not just eaten casually.There must be big things and small feelings in order to cook a pot of beans and rice.

But the old lady thought about it again, even the pigs were killed, so is there still a pot of beans and rice?

Besides, isn't it a big deal to eat pig-killing dishes?
As for Wang Meilan's temperament, this year has been getting worse and faster.She just did what she said, and let the three children play on the kang after eating the oil here, while they continued to work.

These female soldiers were divided into two groups. Wang Meilan took Jin Xiaomei and Zhao Ling to the next door to cut potato and carrot shreds, then boiled the shredded vegetables and mixed them into the noodles.

The noodles of croquettes are mainly white noodles, but there must be less cornmeal mixed in.This is to make the meatballs dregs. Otherwise, if all white flour is used, the inside of the fried meatballs will be sticky, either sticking to the teeth or sticking to the teeth.

Add the blanched cabbage into the noodles, then add the beaten egg and water, and stir again to form a batter.

Here, Jin Xiaomei used the stove hook to stir the firewood in the stove pit. The fire of the croquettes should not be too hot, and the oil temperature should not exceed [-]%, otherwise the croquettes would be burnt.

At that time, the meatballs will be black and yellow, not to mention not tasty, they will not look good either.

Jin Xiaomei controlled the fire, and both Wang Meilan and Zhao Ling washed their hands, holding the batter with one hand, and pouring meatballs into the oil pan with the other.

At Zhao Jun's house, Yang Yufeng chopped garlic, and Xu Chunyan cut blood sausage.

Even the cooked blood sausage is still tender inside, so don't worry when cutting it with the knife. Not only do you have to control the force, but you have to stretch the outer casing with your other hand.

In front of the stove, the old lady filled half a spoonful of freshly boiled wild boar oil and poured it into the pot, stirring the spoon to moisten the pot.After hearing the hissing sound in the pot, pour the pre-mashed yellow rock sugar into it.

The firewood in the stove was not very hot, so the old lady made the small fire to fry the sugar slowly.

Normally, wait until the rock sugar has melted and the oil surface will form small bubbles before adding water, so that the boiled sugar will not be bitter.

And the old lady has her own secret recipe. Before the oil surface bubbles up, she takes the small pot next to it, pours the meat in the pot into it and stir-fries.

Through continuous stir-frying, the meat pieces are all hung with a maroon color.Then she took the gourd ladle with the broken edge, scooped water from the water tank and poured it into the pot until the water covered the meat.

Then, the old lady covered the pot, stooped to pick up firewood and stuffed it into the stove pit, and heated the pot to stew the meat.

After a while, Zhao Ling came over with a bowl of meatballs and asked the old lady and the three children to eat first.

After a while, Wang Meilan came out of the gate of Li's house with a jar of oil and Jin Xiaomei with a large bowl of meatballs, instead of climbing over the wall as usual.

But as soon as they went out, the two saw Xiao Lingdang leading Zhao Hong, Zhao Na, Li Xiaoqiao, and the four little girls were walking home, talking and laughing.

There is only a wall between the primary school and the kindergarten in Yongantun.So when school was over, little Lingdang brought the three sisters back together and sent them home.

"Mom! Mom..." Seeing Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei, Zhao Hong, Zhao Na, and Li Xiaoqiao ran back and forth. Only then did Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei see Zhao Hong holding a small net bag in his hand.

Then there were three screams, and the three little girls were about to grab the balls with their little black hands. Jin Xiaomei was so frightened that she hurriedly held up the big basin and scolded them to go back and wash their hands.

The three little girls rushed to the courtyard of Zhao Jun's house, and the little Lingdang came over and said hello to Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei and was about to go home.

"Which home?" Wang Meilan said with a smile, "Your father and mother are at home, wash your hands and eat meatballs."

Little Bell agreed, and was urged by Wang Meilan to enter the courtyard first.At this time, Jin Xiaomei remembered something, and whispered: "Why are these children coming back so late?"

It stands to reason that the elementary school in the forest area ends at 03:30, and the little bell will come back after picking up the three little girls, and it will not exceed four o'clock.But now, it's past five o'clock.This means trusting little bell, otherwise Jin Xiaomei would have been in a hurry if the child didn't come back.

At this moment, Little Lingdang turned around and said with a smile: "The three of them want to catch grasshoppers to roast and eat, so we will catch some grasshoppers on the Tunkou meadow."

Speaking of this, all three of them saw the small net bag thrown by Zhao Hong beside the pressurized well.

There are quite a lot of grasshoppers in this small net bag, and the big green grasshopper is not small.

But at this time, the three little girls have already rushed into the house to eat croquettes. Who cares about roasting grasshoppers?
Little Lingdang picked up the net bag and smiled at Wang Meilan: "Mr. Zhao, they don't want to eat this, so they will feed it to the chickens."

"Son." Wang Meilan said: "Hang it under the window first, let's go inside and eat meatballs."

After 10 minutes, half of the two pots of meatballs remained. Adults ate less, but children really liked oily food.

At this time, Zhang Yuanmin pushed the door open, and he held on to the door without letting go.And Zhao Jun came out of the house with a plate in one hand, one plate contained large slices of pork belly, and the other plate contained sliced ​​pork liver.

Wang Qiang then went out with a plate of blood sausage. He came to the cauldron in the courtyard one step ahead of Zhao Jun, lifted the lid of the cauldron, and used the lid as a fan in one hand to disperse the heat from the cauldron.

Before Zhao Jun and Zhang Yuanmin arrived at the pot, they spread the meat slices on top of the sauerkraut in the pot, occupying one-third of the pot surface.

Cover the pot, the three of them chatted and chatted, and after about 15 minutes, they opened the pot and put the liver into it.After another 5 minutes, the blood sausage was served again.

At this time, in the cauldron, sliced ​​meat, sliced ​​liver, and blood sausage were divided into three parts.

After Wang Qiang put the lid on the pot, he smiled at Zhao Jun, "Your father and the others are coming back soon, and we will have dinner when they get home."

"Yeah." Zhao Jun responded with a smile.

……

At this time, the commuter train is about to arrive.In the carriage, Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, Li Baoyu, and Lin Xiangshun sat in the northeast corner of the carriage.And Zhang Laifa, who was all over the place, was sitting alone in the southeast corner of the carriage.

As for Li Ruhai, he and a large group of workers occupied most of the carriage.

"Hahaha..." Didn't Li Ruhai in the crowd say something, which caused the surrounding crowd to burst into laughter, and the laughter almost lifted the car cover.

Hearing the laughter, the five people on the other side felt it was harsh, and Zhang Laifa wanted to give Li Ruhai a look.But Li Ruhai was in the crowd, Zhang Laifa couldn't see him at all.

Li Dayong and Li Baoyu bowed their heads together, both father and son had mixed feelings in their hearts.And Zhao Youcai and Lin Xiangshun looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

Then, Zhao Youcai seemed to think of something, picked up the net bag beside him, and said to Lin Xiangshun, "Shunzi, get out of the car in a while, just follow us, and go to my house to eat."

"I won't go, Second Uncle." Lin Xiangshun said with a smile, "I'll go someday."

"What are you waiting for?" Zhao Youcai was afraid that others would hear, so he whispered to Lin Xiangshun, "There is more than a catty of meat in the lunch box above me, let's go back and slice it into pieces, and cook it with cabbage and vermicelli. .”

Lin Xiangshun pursed his lips when he heard the words.It's past six o'clock, and it's time to be hungry, who can bear to mention something delicious?

Zhao Youcai pointed to the lunch box below and said, "Here are four salted duck eggs, ten eggs, and peanuts. Let's scramble an egg, fry a peanut, and have a meal with Uncle Li and Baoyu."

As soon as Zhao Youcai's words fell, Lin Xiang was confused and said: "Second Uncle, do you want to make it now?"

"Why don't you hurry up?" Zhao Youcai smiled and said, "Let's let your second aunt scramble the eggs first, and we'll drink it when the scramble is done, and then she'll fry the peanuts."

Zhao Youcai still didn't say a word. He planned to let Wang Meilan scramble eggs first, then fried peanuts, and finally stewed pork belly with cabbage vermicelli.

"Okay!" Hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Lin Xiangshun said: "Get out of the car in a while, I'll go home and tell Yanzi, and I'll go when I'm done."

As soon as Lin Xiangshun finished speaking, the little train arrived at the station. Zhao Youcai stood up with his heavy lunch box in his hand, thinking happily: "Can ordinary people compare to my food?"

　I'm sorry, brothers, I watched the Spring Festival Gala yesterday, I watched myself drink too much, and it was broken...

I woke up from the cold at four o'clock in the morning, turned on the stove, got into the bed to warm myself, and fell asleep again... I didn't get up until twelve o'clock at noon.This chapter is yesterday, I will eat a ready-made meal in a while, and then write another chapter.
