Parents are busy farming

Chapter 42 Drinking Lamb Soup

The next day, Ye Yongwang and Lao Li drove a donkey cart to Lijia Village early.

The master and disciples went to the mountain.

A few days ago, Ye Zifen had discussed with Zhang Gaoyi to go find the goat today.

After catching the goat, each person will have half of it and live a prosperous year.

Mu Hongzhou was still surprised when the two men came back with the wild goat in a mess.

But she understood when she saw the wild goat's broken neck.

It must be a trap designed by this girl Zhi Zifen.

She just said that with the strength of the two of them, they would definitely not be able to catch such a strong wild goat.

Ye Zifen didn’t want to take the wild goat back to the village like this, so she got some hay and put it on the car to cover the goat.

"I asked you why you drove a donkey cart here today! It turns out you had a plan!" Mu Hongzhou said with a smile.

"Sister, I caught two rabbits." Ye Ziwei brought the two rabbits to Ye Zifen.

"The power of food is infinite!" Ye Zifen exclaimed.

Ye Ziwei looked at Ye Zifen as if she didn't understand, acting very innocent.

"Can I sell my half sheep to you?" Zhang Gaoyi asked.

"You don't eat it at home?" Zi Zifen asked curiously.

"I don't know. My eldest sister is getting married. She was born to my father's previous wife. I don't think my mother will give her any dowry. I want to exchange this half sheep for some money and give it to her."

It is said that family scandals should not be made public, but Zhang Gaoyi never seemed to hide anything in front of Ye Zifen.

Ye Zifen nodded, "Give you three taels of silver?"

"Okay!" Zhang Gaoyi was very talkative.

"Let's have mutton soup at my house today at noon!" Ye Zifen said casually.

"it is good!"

Still so concise and to the point.

When they arrived home, Ye Yongwang had already brought back the big fat pig.

Li Laosi also came with him.

When Ye Zifen saw the pig, she was shocked.

It has only been three months, and the pig has gained weight several times, which shows how carefully Li Laosi's family raises the pig.

"Dad! How much did you give Li Laosi?" Ye Zifen pulled Ye Yongwang away and asked quietly.

"One tael of silver! What's wrong?" Ye Yongwang asked.

"I'll give you something else later! It's much bigger than what I saw."

Ye Yongwang agreed, "Lao Si is a real person."

Ye Yefei has already gone to call the butcher in the same village.

The butchers in Lujiazhuang do not sell pork, but they kill pigs for everyone during the Chinese New Year.

Eat a meal of slaughtered pigs and earn fifty cents.

Ye Zifen took the rabbit off the car, while Zhang Gaoyi carried the goat on his back.

When the butcher entered the door, he was frightened by the formation.

‘Life in the Ye family is good! Both pig and sheep. ’

"Hey! This is a wild goat! Was it caught from the mountain?"

Butcher Lu was a tall man with a big body and a round waist. It seemed that he was quite well-informed.

"We dug a trap and it fell into the trap we dug."

Ye Zifen just said briefly.

The butcher saw a woman standing on the side with her arms folded in the yard. Although she didn't speak, it made people's skin crawl.

He is a butcher himself and is very sensitive to the smell of people.

It seemed that the man was a master and he knew enough not to ask any more questions.

"Let's get rid of this sheep first! If it's been left for a long time, the mutton won't taste good."

Ye Zifen interrupted Mu Hongzhou from looking at the butcher.

"Okay! Listen to Zifen."

So Ye Zifen took out a big basin from the kitchen, and the butcher gave the goat a knife, and the blood gurgled out and flowed into the basin below.

After the goat's blood was drained, the butcher took out a special hand knife and began to skin the sheep.

People in the yard stood in a circle and watched the butcher at work.

The knife in the butcher's hand seemed to have a consciousness of its own, dancing up and down.

With one cut of the knife, some of the sheepskin was peeled off from the body. Only a quarter of an hour passed after all the sheepskin was peeled off.

At this time the butcher put away his knife and looked at the people around him proudly.

That expression with the raised corners of his mouth seems to be telling everyone, ‘How about it, it’s awesome! ’

Mu Hongzhou rolled his eyes after looking at it.

Then he took out a dagger-like knife and began to disembowel the goat.

Ye Zifen took out another big basin and asked him to put the offal into the basin.

Then he took it back to the kitchen and started preparing mutton soup.

"We're going to eat steamed buns in mutton soup for lunch today. No one is allowed to leave."

After Ye Zifen finished speaking, she started boiling water and packing up the casings.

"Cut me another leg of lamb!" Ye Zifen shouted in the kitchen.

"Okay!" The butcher replied as he started to take action.

Ye Ziwei kept looking at the goat, her eyes gleaming.

"Xiao Liu, can you and the master go to the mountain to get some buckets of spring water and come back?"

Zi Zifen didn't dare to directly order Mu Hongzhou, so she told Xiao Liu that who could resist Xiao Liu's eyes.

Mu Hongzhou raised his eyebrows, then went to the kitchen and took out four buckets, then got on the donkey cart and headed towards the mountain.

If you want mutton soup to taste good, it must be paired with mountain spring water.

Ye Zifei also brought the leg of lamb into the kitchen.

Ye Zifen planned to fill a sheep blood sausage first, then took out the loose cotton cloth she knitted and filtered the sheep blood.

Then I went outside and brought in a piece of suet, chopped it into pieces, and melted it in hot water.

Then boil various spices in water and fish them out.

Then pour the water into the sheep blood little by little, stirring while pouring.

Finally, put an egg in the sheep's blood.

Turn over the washed sheep intestines and start enema.

When done, put the sheep intestines into cold water.

"Sister, be sure to keep the fire low." After Ye Zifen warned, she went to clean other internal organs.

Mutton soup is delicious if it contains offal.

After Ye Zifen had packed away all the internal organs, the sheep blood sausage was ready.

Mu Hongzhou and Ziwei also came back.

Zhang Gaoyi carried four buckets of water into the kitchen twice.

"Just pour it into the big pot." Ye Zifen said without even raising his head.

Zhang Gaoyi didn't waste any time and got to work directly.

Ye Zifen threw the lamb leg directly into the pot, as well as the liver and lungs.

Finally, I threw onions and ginger in and covered the pot.

"Sister, it's up to you next time."

Then Ye Zifen took the lamb blood sausage out of the pot, cut one directly and put it in a basin for later use.

The rest should be left to dry inside, best for giving as gifts.

Then Ye Zifen went out and cleaned all the big pots at the same time. They will be used for killing pigs later!

Ye Zifen planned to bake white flour cakes and make steamed buns in mutton soup. The steamed buns here are made from fermented flour cakes.

Fortunately, it was posted when I got up in the morning.

When they came to the sleeping room, Wang Tinghe was playing with Xiao Qi.

She went directly to the kang head and checked whether the hair was ready.

Then she asked Ye Yongwang to help move the basin into the kitchen.

"Mom, you can eat whatever you want today. If you can't go out, just walk around the house more!"

Before Ye Zifen left the house, she did not forget to tell Wang Tinghe.

Wang Tinghe nodded, "I know, you go ahead!"

Ye Zifen took out their specialty big spatula and started to fry pancakes on it.

This pancake was used by my aunt to make pancakes, but now no one in the family knows how to make it, so it was put aside.

It just comes in handy today.

After more than forty pancakes were baked, the lamb legs and other items were already cooked.

Ye Zifen took out the lamb leg, picked out the meat, and cut it into slices.

The same goes for the offal, but each offal is cut in half.

why? She suspected that Xiaoliu and Mu Hongzhou would still be clamoring for this in the coming days.
