The number one scholar is a piece of shit that everyone wants

Chapter 42: Fighting for food with pigs and dogs?

Butcher Zhang is a man in his thirties. He is the only butcher in the village. Whenever villagers want to kill pigs or sheep, they will go to him.

The meat stall at Butcher Zhang's house was one copper coin more expensive than the ones in the town. However, in order to save trouble, everyone also saved the fare to go into the city. Those who had some extra money would come to their house from time to time to buy some meat for their families to improve their meals.

Therefore, Butcher Zhang lived a comfortable life relying on the skills passed down from his ancestors and the meat stalls in the town and at home.

When Ye Fanxing followed her memory and walked to Butcher Zhang's house, there were only two pieces of lean meat without fat left on the chopping board. Judging from the color, they were probably about a day old.

The one who was watching over the stall at home was the butcher's wife Zhang. When she saw Ye Fanxing coming, she gave him a cheaper price because she felt sorry for this Xing'er from the bottom of her heart, who had lost all his relatives and had a disabled husband.

Ye Fanxing remembered that there was not much meat left at home, and his favorite food was lean meat, so he bought both pieces of meat on the chopping board, which weighed more than three pounds, plus eight ribs, for a total of forty-eight cents.

When leaving, Ye Fanxing was caught off guard and Aunt Zhang stuffed a piece of pig offal into his hand.

Ye Fanxing said thank you politely on his face, but he felt extremely embarrassed inside. The things were good, but he didn't know what to do with them!

He also made an agreement with Aunt Zhang to leave the big bones of the past few days to him, and then he carried his things and walked home.

Looking at the pig offal in my hand, the thoughts that popped into my mind were stir-fried liver tips, stir-fried pork intestines, and pork offal soup...

Forget it, let’s not even think about it. The consequence of indulging in my appetite is that I don’t know how many points I’ll lose from 2587.

"Ding, host, there is a copy of the Suiyuan Food List. Do you want to redeem it?"

Oh, this time I didn’t look for it, but it jumped out by itself. There must be something wrong when something is unusual!

Having suffered so many losses, he became more careful this time.

"2587, can you first tell me what is included in this menu? And how many points are required to redeem it?"

"..."

How did the host become smarter? Alas! So sad!

"Ding, host, the Suiyuan Food List is rich in content and covers everything. It can be called an encyclopedia of food culture. The book includes a list of things to know, a small menu, a rice and porridge list... and a tea and wine list, a total of fourteen aspects."

Just when Ye Fanxing was wondering what kind of meal he should exchange and whether all his points would be deducted, at this moment, a "ding" sound suddenly rang in his mind.

"Host, to redeem this "Suiyuan Food List" you need 20 points of Xiangbobei points. Do you want to redeem it?"

"Change, must change!"

Ye Fanxing said while gritting his teeth. He had known for a long time that 2587 was a scam, but he didn't expect it to be so deceptive.

"Ding, a friendly reminder, please read the "Instructions for the Fragrant Bo Bo System" carefully."

Haha, it seems that 2587 took advantage of the fact that I didn't finish reading the manual! Why the hell are you reminding me?

This is a blatant mockery!

That’s right, at this moment 2587 was in a corner, laughing wildly and chanting in a low voice: Pit, pit, small pit inside big pit, there is a deep pit after the big pit, and you will get points when you reach the bottom of each pit!

Ye Fanxing sighed. Even if there was no 2587 "cheating" system, wouldn't he have to live a good life here?

Even if he was cheated, he still got the advantage, and a big advantage at that!

Thinking of this, Ye Fanxing was no longer so depressed, and went home happily with his things.

Song Haoming couldn't help but frowned as he looked at Ye Fanxing, who was carrying meat, large bones and pig offal with a smile on her face.

He could understand the meat and bones, and he could understand the pig offal, but how did he get the pig intestines filled with feces back?

Thinking of this, he pointed at the pig intestines in the pig offal and asked, "Are you sure this is edible?"

Although Song Haoming was a scholar, he grew up in a farming family. Naturally, he had eaten pig offal before, but that was only the heart, liver, and lungs.

These pig intestines have always been used to feed dogs, make pig food, or simply thrown away.

Ye Fanxing carried the meat, large bones and pig offal to the kitchen, and said as she walked: "It's edible and delicious. I'll cook it for you tonight!"

"..."

Song Haoming looked at Ye Fanxing's departing back with suspicion. At this moment, he wished that his legs could stand up immediately so that Ye Fanxing would never harm him and Xiao Nan'er again.

Will he and Xiao Nan'er not even be able to have a bowl of soup tonight?

Instead, they started competing for food with pigs and dogs!

In the kitchen, Ye Fanxing regretted his boasting a little bit, because this large intestine was different from the large intestine bought in the vegetable market now, and he needed to process it himself!

As a man, you have to stick to your words. Now that the words have been spoken, just do it.

The first thing to do is to squeeze out all the feces in the intestines. During this process, Ye Fanxing was almost killed by the stench of the feces!

“Hmm…Hmm…”

After a moment, Ye Fanxing raised his head with red eyes, and complained to himself weakly: It's your fault, who told you to show off!

With the experience just now, in order to avoid being suffocated by the smell, I found two pieces of rags and stuffed my nose with them in advance.

Then I had to turn the large intestine over and clean it. I found a wooden stick as thick as my index finger, put it on one end of the large intestine, and started turning the large intestine over, from the inside out...

But his hands were covered with sticky feces residue, which made him feel nauseous again, "Gee...Gee..."

After a long pause, he straightened his back, his eyes full of tears, and comforted himself: Ye Fanxing, you can do it, the two most difficult steps have been completed, next, you should think about how to eat.

After turning it over, first tear off all the fat attached to the inner wall of the large intestine, and then wash it with a little salt, vinegar, and cornmeal.

Wash it twice, then boil the large intestine in cold water until it is 70% cooked, then take it out and cool it thoroughly with cold water.

Ye Fanxing looked at his finished product and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. No wonder no one here eats large intestines. Just looking at the things used to clean the large intestines, most people would be reluctant to give them up.

Should we eat braised pork intestines tonight? Stir-fry or dry-fry?

After thinking about it and taking into account Xiao Nan'er and Song Haoming's tastes, as well as the existing side dishes and seasonings at home, I finally decided to make a braised pork intestine.

First, cut the pig intestines into appropriate small pieces, stir-fry them with onions, ginger, garlic and a little seasoning, then put the intestines into the pot, and add appropriate amounts of bamboo fungus and wild mushrooms as side dishes.

After stir-frying for a few times, pour a bowl of water into the pot, cover the pot, simmer on low heat for five minutes, then increase the heat to reduce the soup, add a little soy sauce, thicken with starch, stir-fry a few more times and it is ready to serve.

The greedy cat Xiao Naner stood at the door of the kitchen, sniffed hard and asked, "Little Daddy, Xiangxiang, what are we having for dinner tonight?"

“Braised pork intestines!”
