Jiang Tao can't escape

"Go back, take more care of you these days, and thanks to you watching the house with me, I can rent such a suitable and cheap one so quickly."

Jiang Tao has a good impression of the straightforward Xing'er, and feels very reluctant to part with her.

"Well, Miss Jiang has to come to Ruyi Building often when she has time!"

"Yes, it's okay if you don't come, I still owe you money!"

Xing'er pouted and joked with Jiang Tao, the two separated at the gate of Ruyi Building, Xing'er naturally went back to Ruyi Building to wait for orders, and Jiang Tao went to the rented house.

The house is not far from Ruyi Building, but it is not facing the main street like Ruyi Building.Entering from a not-so-narrow alley, when you open the gate, you will see a screen wall, facing the main house directly behind, facing south.There are two wing rooms in the east and west, and Jiang Tao rented a wing room in the west.

With a place to stay, Jiang Tao felt that he was full of energy.

The main house is a couple with two children living in the main house, and several wing rooms on the east and west sides are used for rent, and they are quite satisfied with a tenant like Jiang Tao.

Jiang Tao didn't have anything else, only a set of clothes that Xing'er found on her body, and two other clothes wrapped in a bundle, which was all that Xing'er found for Jiang Tao.

If Jiang Tao hadn't been taken back to Ruyilou, he didn't know what terrible things would have happened. He might have been picked up by someone with ulterior motives and sold to a brothel. Fortunately, it wasn't winter, otherwise he would have frozen to death or starved to death.

Jiang Tao feels that the location of Hui'an City is about the same as that of North China. There are four seasons in a year, and there are distinct seasonal changes. It is spring now.

The wing room is not empty, a set of bedding is neatly stacked on the Kang against the wall, there is an empty cabinet next to it, a simple table and two stools on the floor, and a washstand and basin next to the door .Jiang Tao is very satisfied with the house except that the cooking stove is outside the house, which is a bit inconvenient.

Jiang Tao touched the silver in his pocket, feeling confident again.

The warm sun made people feel very comfortable. Jiang Tao took the bedding out to dry in the yard, and then started to clean the house with half a bucket of water from the well in the yard.

Most of the day passed like this, and Jiang Tao planned to go out to buy the things he needed in the afternoon.Myolie said that many people from nearby villages who come to the city to sell things start early in the morning, and the price is the best in the morning, and when the opening time starts at 3 pm, the price will be lowered, and when they are sold out, they will sell at a lower price. I went back home.

Jiang Tao first went to the shop to buy some bowls and some seasonings, then bought oil from the oil seller, some rice from the rice shop, a medium-sized iron pot from the blacksmith, and some Miscellaneous things, first shipped home and then purchased again.

Pork is sold in butcher shops, but what Jiang Tao needs is chicken. Er,,, Jiang Tao walked around and found that there was no ready-made chicken for sale. Finally, Jiang Tao stopped in front of a stall and cooed in a cage. The chicken's eyes are wide-eyed.

"Miss, do you want to buy chicken? You see, I have good hens here. Old hens can be stewed for soup. The tender meat is delicious. Miss, look at it?"

Jiang Tao knows how to eat chicken, but he doesn't know how to choose, so he can only pretend to be picky and choose three chickens that are pleasing to the eye.Originally, a chicken cost [-] Wen, but Jiang Tao said that he bought more and asked the stall owner to make it cheaper. The stall owner saw that Jiang Tao was empty-handed, so he said that he could give Jiang Tao a cage to hold the chicken.

I don’t know what kind of plant the cage is made of. It looks very simple, and it looks like it was made by hand to hold sundries, but Jiang Tao really needs something to hold chickens. Jiang Tao had to agree. After bargaining for the second time, and getting an extra cage, Jiang Tao went home satisfied.

After a busy day, Jiang Tao slept very sweetly at night under the fluffy and fluffy quilt that was sun-dried.

Breakfast is still porridge and steamed buns. There is no other way. Jiang Tao knows how to cook very little. He has just settled down and has no conditions to think about what to do.It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but it is difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. In the few days when I just passed through and was picked up in Ruyilou, there was food and vegetables. Jiang Tao chewed a steamed bun and drank porridge. A few chickens matched up.

Jiang Tao intends to fry chicken, and after frying, sprinkle seasonings on it and sell it. After several days of investigation, Jiang Tao found that there is no fried chicken sold in Huian City. Jiang Tao believes that the deliciousness of fried chicken will definitely be welcomed by people. After all, ginger As a senior foodie, Amoy likes to eat very much in modern times.

To make fried chicken, you must first have chicken, but now that the chicken is still growing on the chicken, Jiang Tao is facing another problem: killing the chicken.

To be honest, Jiang Tao’s grandparents are from the countryside. Jiang Tao spent some time in the village when he was a child, picking fruits from trees and doing a lot of fishing in rivers. Jiang Tao thinks he is not a delicate person. People, but I have never done anything about killing chickens.

How did you kill him?Take a knife and cut the neck of the chicken?It seems that most of them are like this, right?

Dreams are beautiful, but reality is cruel. It is not easy to realize Jiang Tao's idea of ​​killing chickens, plucking their feathers, chopping them up and frying them, and using the chicken blood to make soup.

Jiang Tao tremblingly grabbed a chicken out of the cage.The first step is to tie the chicken's two feet with a rope; the second step is to grab the chicken wings and put the chicken on the ground, but the neck of the chicken is still moving. The chicken head is pressed down so that it is convenient to operate by yourself.

The frightened chicken clucked and clucked. Jiang Tao took a knife and wiped the neck of the chicken hard. As a result, the chicken didn't say anything except scratching off a few chicken feathers. Instead, it screamed louder.

A young couple lived in the east wing. When Jiang Tao moved in, he greeted Jiang Tao. They seemed to be a very simple and enthusiastic couple. The man named Chen Dalang was working in the yard and saw Jiang Tao. After a series of movements to kill the chicken, he put down the bucket in his hand and walked towards Jiang Tao.

"Brother Chen."

Jiang Tao was still holding the chicken, screamed hastily, and planned to chop the chicken's neck with a knife, but was stopped by Chen Dalang.

"Hey, you can't do this, I'll kill you to see."

Chen Dalang took the knife from Jiang Tao's hand and put it aside, grabbed the chicken's neck and began to pluck the feathers from the chicken's neck. A small piece of chicken skin was exposed after pulling off the chicken's feathers, and then he picked up the knife again and cut at the exposed chicken skin. With a knife, the chicken blood flowed out smoothly. Jiang Tao quickly put the bowl down and received the chicken blood into the bowl.

"First pluck a little hair like this, and then you pay attention to where the knife can release the blood from the chicken, so it will be much easier to kill the chicken."

Chen Dalang was holding a chicken and talking to Jiang Tao. In the yard, the defense between men and women was not as serious as Jiang Tao's impression.Chen Dalang didn't ask Jiang Tao why he took the chicken blood into the bowl, he just thought that Jiang Tao liked to be clean and was afraid of dirtying the yard.

The chicken was bleeding dry, Jiang Tao put the dead chicken into the prepared hot water, and thanked Chen Dalang.

"Thank you, Brother Chen."

"You're welcome, we're all living in this city. It's not easy for you as a girl. I have a younger sister in my hometown who is about the same size as you. You call me Brother Chen, and your sister-in-law and I will call you sister from now on. If you need anything, you can talk to your sister-in-law first."

"Well, Jiang Tao thanked Brother Chen and Sister Chen first."

Jiang Tao felt warm in his heart.

The second and third chickens were killed by Jiang Tao himself, and they were also soaked in hot water, and then began to pluck their hairs one by one.I have to say that the feeling when plucking the hair really made Jiang Tao himself have goosebumps.However, Jiang Tao felt that it was the most unbearable time to eviscerate.

Cut open the chicken belly and reached in to take out the internal organs of the chicken. The chicken belly was still warm, and the internal organs were a pile of soft. It was hard to tell whether it was the intestines or the stomach, or something else. Jiang Tao quickly took out the chicken. , Reluctantly picked out the chicken heart and put it aside, wrapped the others quickly and threw them out.

It is not easy to pluck the feathers of the chickens. Jiang Tao cleaned up the three chickens with his waist sore and legs numb. He removed the chicken heads, chicken buttocks and chicken feet. Three chickens were chopped into chicken nuggets of about the same size.

After the preparations were done, Jiang Tao lit the stove, poured oil into the pot, and began to show off his skills.Soon, the yard was filled with the smell of fried meat, and several people in the house came out to see what Jiang Tao had cooked.

The first pot of fried chicken was out of the pan, and Jiang Taokong dried the oil and sprinkled seasoning powder for everyone in the yard to taste. Chen Dalang and Mrs. Chen were full of praise, and shopkeeper Wang narrowed his eyes after tasting it.

Shopkeeper Wang is the owner of this small courtyard.

Knowing that Jiang Tao planned to sell it on the street, shopkeeper Wang immediately asked the price.

"Ten cents a piece? Not bad, the taste is unique, and there are connections. Give me five pieces, and I'll bring them to the guys at my cabinet to try something new."

Jiang Tao smiled happily.It turned out that the landlord is a big shopkeeper, and he gave himself a good start when he joined the show for the first time. It seems that he can gain a foothold in Hui'an City by his own labor.

"Thank you Uncle Wang for your support. I'm afraid this pot is not enough. Let me make another pot for you to wrap it up. Uncle Wang hasn't gone to the cabinet yet. If you are not busy, you can wait for a while and make it later. Soup for everyone to taste."

Shopkeeper Wang naturally responded with a smile.

Mrs. Chen turned around and went into the house, took out a red paper bag and handed it to Jiang Tao.

"I have a little heart for you, Brother Chen, and I wish you a prosperous business."

Jiang Tao also accepted the red envelope politely, the money is not important, what is important is the heart, Jiang Tao took the red envelope and turned around to make a fried meat stuffing for Mrs. Chen.

"Thanks to Brother Chen helping me kill the chicken in the morning, otherwise I wouldn't be able to go so smoothly."

Mrs. Chen refused but had no choice but to accept, but she insisted on helping Jiang Tao.

I'm much more diligent than I expected, it's over, I'm going to bed!
