The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm
Chapter 68 Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs
The third brother pretended to be profound and shook his head. Finally, he couldn't help but lift up the corners of his mouth that he had tried so hard to suppress. "Let's go inside. Let's be happy together as a family."
The third brother was also very patient and would tell anyone who asked him questions that he would talk about it during dinner.
Ni'er thought that she had learned a new dish that day that required spareribs, so what a coincidence! She washed the meat and prepared to show off her cooking skills.
The meat was so fresh and beautiful. It was cut into small pieces with a few strokes of the knife. Almost every chop had a piece of fat as thick as a little finger, which was snow-white and smooth.
Add two handfuls of sugar cubes you bought earlier to a hot pan with cold oil, and fry until the color turns darker and small bubbles appear. Pour in the pork ribs. There is a sizzling sound, which is the collision of water and oil, and the fusion of meat and sugar. Stir-fry vigorously so that each piece of meat is evenly coated with sugar color.
Ni'er has grown a lot taller recently. Now she can cook by standing on tiptoe, unlike before when she had to step on something to reach the pot.
Add some common spices on the market, onions and ginger to remove fishy smell, and most importantly, vinegar.
The moment I poured it in, the sour taste almost made me feel uncomfortable. Well, this is how it tastes. I added a proper amount of salt and covered the lid tightly.
The next step is waiting time. Nier takes out some firewood from the stove and keeps the fire on low so that the meat can be cooked slowly to make it tasty.
They have eaten a lot of meat recently, but the smell still made them swallow their saliva. Vinegar is a relatively rare seasoning, and the four of us in the family don’t like sour food, but the smell of this dish makes them hungry.
Because the meat was stewed a little later than usual and it was also time for dinner, the small kitchen was crowded with people and no one wanted to leave. The donkey, who loved to join in the fun, also turned his head to look over here. He could smell but not see, so he had to chew the grass in front of him.
Yan Zi put the washed rice in another pot, added water, and simmered some white rice. Ni'er said that it would taste better with such rice. After the rice was cooked, she made a pot of wild vegetable soup to relieve the greasiness.
The time was almost up, so I opened the lid of the pot and saw that the soup was almost dry. I poured a little more vinegar into it, stirred it a few times with a spatula, scooped it out, put it on the only plate in the house without a crack, and sprinkled a layer of sesame seeds on it.
Having never seen such a dish before, the whole family stared at the plate. It was bright red and oily, with thick soup and white sesame seeds. Taking a deep breath, there was no such pungent sour smell, only the aroma of vinegar and the sweet taste wrapped in the aroma of meat.
The third brother brought the soup, Yan Zi served the rice, Niu Li carried four bowls of rice directly to the kang, Ni'er placed the dishes on the kang neatly, and the whole family sat around and prepared to eat.
Each person picked up a piece of meat and put it in their mouth. It was indeed delicious. The four people's eyes lit up at the same time. The taste of sesame seeds was stimulated by the heat, and the texture of each grain, paired with the soft, glutinous, sour and sweet meat, had a unique flavor.
Niu Li didn't even let go of the bones, and he sucked them over and over again until there was no taste left.
The four people ate much faster than usual, stuffing food into their mouths in big mouthfuls. There were a few sesame seeds on the corners of each person's mouth, and the soup was stuck on their mouths, as if they had been smeared with lip balm.
Niu Li jumped off the kang, quickly brought back a spoon, scooped out the soup, which was not much to begin with, poured it on the rice, stirred it with chopsticks, picked up the bowl, and scooped it all into his mouth.
Everyone drank a full bowl of wild vegetable soup, burped one after another, supported themselves with their hands, leaned back, and stretched out their crossed legs. Their stomachs were so bloated that they couldn't bend over at all, and even sitting upright made them feel difficult to breathe.
Yan Zi felt particularly uncomfortable. They looked at each other and laughed so hard that they fell backwards. It was the first time they knew that eating could make people become like this, like big-bellied katydids.
"Sister, what's the name of this dish?" Niu Li put down his chopsticks reluctantly, wiped his mouth with his hand, and licked the sesame seeds off with his tongue.
"This dish is called Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs. Do you think the braised pork is better or this one?" Ni'er sat up straight and leaned forward slightly towards Niu Li.
"This...I...How about you make the braised pork again, sister? I've forgotten what it tastes like."
The whole family laughed again, including Niu Li. Ni'er laughed until tears came out of her eyes. She held her full stomach and said, "Okay, I'll make it for you next time."
I had originally planned to announce the good news when the meal started, but I didn't give the third brother this opportunity. Not to mention others, even the third brother himself didn't expect that he would be the first person to pick up the chopsticks.
He sat up with great effort, "After delivering tofu today, before I even left the restaurant, I saw someone asking for Ni'er's green tofu. It was sold out in a short while. It was the same in both restaurants. The shopkeeper reminded me once, but was afraid that I would forget, so he chased me out and reminded me again, asking me to deliver more tomorrow."
I didn't expect to receive such good news today. I thought I would know the result tomorrow. The joy diluted the sadness of not being able to get rich quickly this morning. It turns out that I still have to be down-to-earth.
Then starting from tomorrow, we will give away half white tofu and half green tofu. Ni'er thought of letting Aunt Niudan do the job of pounding the basil to make juice, and the price will be raised to the same as before.
"Miss, this is the fresh tofu I bought for you today. I will help you apply it on your face."
In a courtyard deep in the bamboo forest, in an extremely exquisitely decorated room, a well-dressed maid took off the silver hairpin on her head and cut the tofu into thin slices, then gently placed them on the young lady's delicate and smooth face.
I glanced at the hourglass not far away, remembered the time, and waited a while to take the tofu down.
The room was filled with the pleasant aroma of goose pears. The young lady, lying on the carved wooden bed, held a bronze mirror and watched as pieces of tofu were removed, revealing her whiter and tenderer face. She could not help but touch it with her hands.
Ever since the last time Doctor Zhao prescribed me medicine and I applied tofu, I have become inseparable from it. I go to buy a piece every few days, and my skin has been getting better and better.
"Miss, that restaurant has a new style of tofu, would you like to try it~"
Straightening up, the maid hung up the curtain. The young lady was still immersed in her own beauty, looking left and right in front of the mirror, "Let's talk about it some other day. By the way, I want to drink soy milk tomorrow. Please buy it for me. I want it hot. Don't bring it back and cook it again."
The maid quickly lowered her head and answered "yes".
The old lady counted the money that the second son brought back at noon, put it in the cabinet and locked it, but after a while she couldn't help taking it out.
He repeated this several times. Only when he heard some noise outside did he stop counting the money, instantly locked the cabinet, and stroked the mottled cabinet surface with his hand. It seemed to be some rare treasure.
I was amazed at how much money I made in just two days. I had to make the tofu. I went to the kitchen and took a look, but still no one was successful.
However, the old lady was determined. It was no big deal to waste some soybeans. She could make more money in the future anyway, and any loss could be made up.
