selling chili peppers in chronology

=============================

By the time the Chen family made eight hundred catties of tempeh and chili, Laba had already passed.

Among them, the chili noodles made of black bean chili are pounded by the Chen family with a stone pound. The spices bought at one time can boil a lot of oil. Of course, this oil has to be bought in the county, and it costs a lot of money. .

But in the end they only made [-] catties, not because they couldn't afford oil, but because there was no more fermented soybeans.

The [-] catties of fermented soya bean chili were originally cooked by them for their own food, so each family actually did not cook too much. After trying the initial experimental fermented soya bean chili, the Chen family was overwhelmed by this kind of bad chili. Not a flavor at all but equally delicious the tempeh chili overwhelmed and then took out all the tempeh that was originally cooked.

Of course, one yard counts for one yard, and the tempeh sold by each family is bought by Chen's money, not for nothing.

The same is true for the new rice that was used to cook rice wine.

In order to support the business, the three families did not keep any soy sauce for themselves, and all contributed to make chili.And those fermented soybeans can add up to [-] catties of fermented soybeans and peppers.

For the convenience of storage, the finished fermented bean chili is placed in a large glass tank, otherwise the cans of fermented bean chili will take up too much space.

The raw materials are used up, and it is the twelfth lunar month, and there are still ten days before the Chinese New Year, and people really need to rest.So everyone put away the tempeh and chili peppers and ended the work of the year before, which is considered to be a complete vacation.

Of course, this vacation is actually not free.

The men are going to look at the winter wheat in the field, while the women are preparing for the New Year.

The family has money this year, so we must live well this year!

In fact, not only the Chen family, there is no family in the whole country that does not value the New Year.I would grit my teeth and buy something during the Chinese New Year that I am usually reluctant to buy. Children are especially happy because they can eat things that they can’t usually eat during the Chinese New Year.

A good ending to the old year and a good start to the new year.

They went to the county to buy the new year's goods for Chen Chen's family, and the food was especially rich.

There are all kinds of candies and dried fruits that you can’t usually see, such as melon seeds and peanuts for guests, sealed biscuits, citrus, grapefruit, and a small amount of apples, and some expensive canned fruits, malted milk and Milk powder, etc., not to mention white sugar, brown sugar, etc., which are always prepared at home, as well as oil, salt, noodles, etc., all of which have to be prepared...

Everyone has a few new clothes this year, but what the Chinese New Year wants is the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year, so Liu Dongxue, who originally didn't plan to buy any more clothes, bought Chen Chen, Chen Bei and Zhou Ping'an alone, just the kind of ready-made clothes they made , the price is far more expensive than the ones made by pulling the cloth by yourself, but it is also more beautiful than the styles made by yourself.

……

It’s not just what they bought. Rural people need to prepare a lot of things for the New Year if they have the conditions.

For example, Chen Jianjun’s pig, because the family has made money this year, and Chen Jianjun’s family is very happy, so they discussed killing the pig to eat meat. Absolutely, not even a few drops of pig blood wasted.

On the day of the pig slaughter, the whole village came to see the fun when they heard the pigs screaming, and asked Chen Jianjun's family if they could sell or exchange the pork.

Feng Zhaodi replied that they would not change it, and they wanted to keep the pig at home to eat. The villagers were not without regrets. Looking at the [-]-jin pig's eyes were shining, how much meat did it get!These meats have to be eaten for several years!

But it's useless to be greedy. The Chen family has already discussed this pig. Chen Jianjun will keep half of it for himself, and the remaining half will be divided between Chen Jiandang and Chen Jianye. Mention, my family, things are easy to talk about.

Of course, these meats are not given for free, all of them have to be bought at market prices!

Otherwise, if someone worked hard to raise a pig for a whole year, and finally let you pick the peaches and eat them for free, how could it be such a good thing?

A total of 42 catties of pigs, Chen Chen's family ordered the front half, and weighed 67 catties of meat.During the Chinese New Year period, the price of pork has risen, one yuan and sixty one catty, a total of 70 yuan; Chen Chen wanted to eat fatty intestine noodles, so he asked for a piece of pig large intestine. Feng Zhaodi originally wanted to give this piece of fatty intestine to them, but Liu Dongxue didn't want it. He took [-] yuan and handed it over, but Feng Zhaodi didn't refuse, and had no choice but to take the pig liver directly, not even the pig lungs.

This time Liu Dongxue didn't refuse, she thanked her and proceeded readily.

Feng Zhaodi waved her hand to tell her not to be polite, and then called the two of them to get a bowl to cut the pig's blood.The pig's blood, which was still hot just now, has solidified long ago.

Everyone hurried to go.

So in the end, Chen Chen bought a quarter of a pig, a piece of cleaned pig large intestine, a whole pig liver, a small fan of pig lung, a bowl of pig blood, and a pig's blood from his second uncle's house at night for 70 yuan. A large bowl of steamed pork head meat is not too cost-effective, and everyone is very happy.

After the meat was taken back and roasted, Chen Jianye chopped off the pig's front legs, and then the suet inside was also extracted to refine the oil, and the rest of the meat had to be divided up. More than 40 catties of meat are definitely not enough to eat during the Chinese New Year, so they should be sprinkled with salt, then smoked and baked into bacon, and saved for the next year.

Everyone worked hard all afternoon to pack up the meat.

Today is a pig slaughter anyway, although it is not their own slaughter, but the second brother/second uncle’s pig slaughter has a lot to do with them, so at night Liu Dongxue steamed white rice that is not adulterated, and then made a stir-fried shredded carrot and A pot of stewed pig's blood with sauerkraut and a large bowl of steamed pork head brought by Chen Fen just now made the whole family feel their mouths were full of oil, and they felt that life was perfect.

Especially the stewed pig's blood with sauerkraut, which is sour and spicy, and the pig's blood is also fresh.

It is said that the best meal is the pig-killing banquet. Although this meal is not considered to be tonight, it is still delicious enough.

Chen Chen couldn't help sighing in his heart, what is pork, pig offal is even more precious.

After the pig slaughter, it was 26 in less than two days. While Chen Chen was worried about Du Xingwei who hadn't returned to the village yet, he had to help the family cook all kinds of delicious food.

Rice noodles, potato flour, sweet potato flour, rice cakes, jujube cakes, sugar glutinous rice cakes, small crispy meat, steamed meat, white tofu, fried tofu, fried crispy fish, fried vegetable dumplings...all of these have to be made in advance, after all It is not easy to do each kind of work, it is a troublesome and delicate work, and because it is all done by hand, it is also very tiring to do.

Just like white tofu, there is no convenient soymilk machine for soaking soybeans. It has to be ground with a stone mill, and the millstone is driven by manpower, and then the soymilk is made.Soy milk and bean dregs are also brewed bit by bit on the side of white cloth, and then the soy milk can be poured into the pot to cook, and then wrapped with tofu.

Since the age of 26, the Chen family has never turned off the fire in the big pot on the stove from morning to night, and they are all preparing all kinds of food.

Although I am tired, but this year the crops have been good, the business has also made money, the family has income, and there is hope for life. In addition, these things are all made at home, so the faces of the whole family are happy Excited, no one complained of being tired after busy rounds.

Soon, the Chinese New Year is coming!
