Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?

Chapter 450: Grilled Peppers and Pickled Olives

The next day, when the sky was slightly bright, Su Ziling got up, but Su's mother was earlier than she was.

Before dawn, she got up and lit the fire. The water in the fire pit was boiling, and she started cooking in the big stove. She also poured the pig food to the pigs.

When Su Ziling got up, she had fed the pigs and boiled the water. There was brown rice porridge in the pot with lean meat and preserved eggs. On the cutting board were chopped green vegetables and chopped wild garlic.

Su Ziling stood at the door, yawned, raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, looking at the pig food in the bucket that was half missing, the sweet potatoes roasting by the fire, and the porridge cooking in the pot, her voice was a bit muttering.

"Auntie, why are you so early?"

Mother Su looked back at her, "Is it early? It's late. Your eldest brother and the others got up earlier than me. I only got up when I heard your brother and the others making noises. There is hot water in the kettle. Go wash up quickly. My food is almost ready.”

It could be seen that Mother Su was very excited, as if she had been given a shot of chicken blood, and her expression was high.

However, it is understandable that she has spent half her life but has not been to the county yet. It is the first time she goes to the county to go to the market. Not only can she see Su Zimu, but she can also visit her own restaurant. It is normal to be excited.

Seeing her warming herself by the fire pit, Mother Su urged her, "You kid, what time is it? You still have time to warm yourself by the fire. Hurry up and get some water to wash up. After washing, go call your dad and ask them to get up and eat. Let's get up." You have to go early, otherwise you won’t be able to buy meat.”

"Hey, I got it, let's go now."

I really didn't get enough sleep in the winter morning, so I just wanted to die in bed. As soon as my feet came out of the bed, they were immediately taken back. It was winter everywhere outside the bed.

The movement between the two of them was not light, so there was no need for Su Ziling to call for someone. When they heard the movement in the yard, the whole family got up one after another.

After they finished washing, Su Zizhong and Twenty also came back. In the cold winter, they were sweating all over. Of course, Su Zizhong didn't come back empty-handed, holding a bunch of wild vegetables in his hand.

Most of them are wild garlic and gray vegetables. The gray vegetables during this period are the most delicious, with a sweet aftertaste and a good texture, so you can’t get enough of them.

Moreover, every time we meet Huihui vegetables, they come in large pieces. Everyone in the family likes to eat them, and they can also be used for cooking, so Su Zizhong will not let them go every time.

After all, the taste of gray vegetables will not be the same after spring begins, and you can’t find them anymore if you want to eat them. While they are delicious now, cut more of them, and blanch them in the sun if you can’t finish them.

Breakfast is simple, a large pot of preserved egg, lean meat and green vegetable porridge. The porridge with wild garlic is more fragrant. The side dishes are the kohlrabi roots, pickled peppers and garlic heads marinated by Su Ziling.

Seeing that the gray vegetables that Su Zizhong brought back were tender, Su Mu added a ladle of water to the pot, blanched the gray vegetables and ground vegetables respectively, added vinegar, soy sauce, salt, minced garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, and chili pepper oil and stirred them together. Evenly.

Simple side dishes go best with preserved egg and lean meat porridge. A bowl of hot porridge in this cold winter will instantly warm your whole body.

After eating, everyone went to change into clean clothes, and Suzi also put on her new cotton-padded clothes.

After Su A's milk was ready, she tried it on and then put it away. Since the beginning of winter this year, she has been wearing old cotton clothes. Su Ziling also told her several times, and every time she said that she was wearing this Can still be worn.

"Auntie, are you finally willing to wear your new cotton-padded clothes?" Su Ziling teased Su Ziling with a smile as she looked at Su's mother who was wearing new clothes and her hair was combed meticulously.

Mother Su pulled the corner of her clothes, "Hey, why are you so reluctant to part with them? Isn't this clothes just for wearing?"

Father Su on the side was looking for something. He raised his eyebrows when he heard Mother Su's words, "Didn't you say you could still wear the one you were wearing two days ago? Why can't you wear it today?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Su's mother glared at him, "The clothes are dirty. Have you found everything? It's time to set off."

Father Su smiled and said, "Put the vermicelli on and we're ready to go."

There were five people in the group, carrying baskets and sacks on their backs. Each of them also held a pole in their hand, just to pick things up when they came back later.

Su A'nai stood aside, "By the way, didn't you say you were going to sell your olives in the shop? I think the color has turned white, so it should be edible, right?"

"Grandma, if you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten it!" Su Ziling stuck out her tongue, she really didn't think about it for a moment.

"I'll go take a look. It should be almost done."

Seeing her going back to the kitchen to look at licorice olives, Su's mother followed her.

"How about it?"

When Su's mother came in, Su Ziling had already fished out a bowl. The olives were soaked until they turned white. She took one, bit into it and the olive immediately took off the pit. (Picture of soaked olives)

It is slightly sour in the mouth, but still more sweet, without the astringency and sourness of eating it raw. The olives seem to have completed a major transformation.

"It's ready to eat. Mom, please try it!"

Su Ziling handed the bowl to her. Mother Su looked at the white olives in the bowl, and the sourness and astringency of eating them raw filled her mind.

She shook her head and waved her hands quickly, "I won't eat it, as long as you think it's okay."

"Pfft...hahahaha"

Su Ziling burst out laughing, apparently thinking of the emoji that made her sour when she ate it raw.

"This is not sour, it's sweet. Try it." Su Ziling took one and threw it into her mouth. Seeing her expression remained unchanged, Su's mother tried one dubiously.

"what?"

As soon as the olives entered her mouth, her eyes widened slightly, full of surprise, "It's really not sour anymore, it's so sweet, and the pits fall off as soon as you bite them."

"Really?" Su Ziling smiled so hard that her eyes turned into crescent moons. She put down the bowl and went to the cupboard to get a few dried chili peppers. "I'll make a dry dish and you can try it again."

Soaked olives are completely different from raw ones. The raw ones are sour and astringent, and the seeds are not peeled off. The soaked olives lose the astringent taste, and are still 80% sweet and 20% sour. .

Soaked olives can be eaten directly. The water in the olives can also reduce phlegm and relieve coughs. Of course, it will have a different taste when paired with a dry dish.

Seeing that there were still charcoal in the fire pit, she threw the dried pepper into it and roasted it slowly.

The air was filled with the scent of chili peppers. When they were slightly burnt, they took them out and pounded them in a pestle and mortar. Added salt, peppercorns, and a small amount of fennel powder. There was no MSG. She had to make some mushroom powder another day, and she happened to have mushrooms at home. I have all the information, so make more and use it as MSG.

After the dry dish was ready, she tasted it. The remaining sour taste had been covered up by the battered pepper, and her mouth was filled with sweetness and the burnt aroma of the pepper.

"Auntie, try again!"

Mother Su tasted another one and said, "Well, it suits my taste now." She couldn't stop after eating one, and ate one after another.

"Should we send it to a restaurant today? It seems that there are no paste peppers in the county, and if they are not dried, the taste will be reduced by half."

Su Ziling hesitated for a while. It was definitely not possible to bake them now. There was not enough time, and the soaked olives tasted so good. She thought she could pick some more and soak them.

"Then I'll deliver it in two days. When I get back, I can pick some and soak them. I can sell them after spring."

Since she wasn't going to sell it, she simply flattened the bowl of soaked olives she took out, poured the dry dish into it, shook it, mixed it evenly, and then took it out for everyone to taste.
