Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress
Chapter 21 Family Dinner (2)
She first washed the pigskin carefully several times with coarse salt water until there was no peculiar smell, and then burned it with a burning firewood from one end to the other. The hair on the skin was gone, but the inside of the skin was dark. The dirt is still clearly visible.She was not in a hurry to deal with the dirt inside the pig skin, but put the skin in the pot and started cooking it.
About half an hour later, she turned off the fire, took out the meat skin from the pot, soaked it in cold water, spread the meat skin on the cutting board, and used an awl to pick out the hair particles in the hair follicles one by one. .
Because the meat skin was cooked to pieces and was very soft, it was easy to pick up the crumbs. After a while, several pieces of meat skin were picked clean and turned into white pieces, still smelling of a strong meaty aroma.
"It smells so good. Is eldest sister cooking meat?"
Wen'er and Fei'er followed the scent and found Caiwei scraping the oil on the meat skin with the back of a knife. I asked curiously: "Sister, what are you doing?"
"Make crystal jelly."
"What is crystal jelly? Can it be eaten?"
"Of course!"
Wen'er sniffed and said, "It smells so good, it must be delicious!"
Caiwei pinched his nose and shook it, and said with a smile: "Don't think about eating. If you want to eat, you have to pay a price. "
Wen'er rubbed Caiwei's palm with her little face and said flatteringly: "Whatever sister asks Wen'er to do, just tell her."
Caiwei pointed to the foaming gray oily water in the pot and said, "Scoop out the dirty water and dump it, and then wash the pot clean."
Wen'er was very obedient. After hearing her sister's order, she rolled up her sleeves without saying a word, stepped on a stool beside the stove, and started working seriously.
Feier asked: "Sister, what should I do?"
Caiwei handed over a knife and said politely: "Chop these fleshy skins into pieces. The more chopped the better, be careful not to cut your hands!"
Two free laborers came, and Mu Caiwei was happy to rest for a while. It's not that she means to be lazy, it's just that her current body is not good. After working for a while, she will be so tired that she breaks out in cold sweats and can't breathe. She doesn't know if it's due to congenital deficiencies or acquired malnutrition.
It seems that if I go to town tomorrow, I have to find a good medical clinic. After all, the body is the capital of the revolution, and this family is still counting on her!
In the big room, my mother was measuring clothes for Xiao Wu'er under the candle. Wu'er happily cooperated with her mother's movements.
"Wu'er, let's go out with my sister." Caiwei said.
Upon hearing that her daughter was going out so late at night, Mrs. Du quickly asked, "Where are you going, you fool?"
Caiwei picked up Wu'er from the kang, put on his shoes, and explained to her mother: "Go and send some meat to Aunt Zhou, and come back as soon as you go."
Du said uneasily, "Let's go tomorrow. It's so late, and everyone might be asleep."
"I just went there specifically to drive them to bed, otherwise Aunt Zhou would have grabbed me again and told me something, which would make people upset." Caiwei rolled her eyes when she thought of Aunt Zhou's ambiguous jokes. .
Du Shi lowered her head silently and said nothing.
In fact, in her heart, she was quite fond of Jiujin. The child was down-to-earth, sincere and kind, without those frivolous things or a curvy belly. Most importantly, she really cared about her Wei'er! As a mother, who doesn’t want to find a son-in-law who treats his daughter wholeheartedly?
It's a pity that Wei'er, this girl, doesn't care about Jiujin at all. Every week, her aunt or the villagers tease her with Jiujin. Although she doesn't refute, her expression is as calm as water. The expression on her face is enough to prove that she has no Jiujin in her heart. Otherwise, how could she not even have the shyness of her daughter?
Why!
The emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is not. As for marriage, it is up to God's will!
…
Caiwei carried five kilograms of fat pork and pulled Wu'er out. The reason why she took Wu'er with her was because she was afraid that others would see her going to Jiujin's house late at night and say something damaging to her reputation. In this era, the reputation of her daughter's family is more important than her life. If you make a mistake, your reputation will be ruined, and your life will be worse than death. With Wu'er by your side, you won't leave anything to say to those who like to gossip.
Taking advantage of the moonlight, the siblings came to the door of Jiujin's house. Jiujin's house was dark, with no lights on and no sound at all. It seemed that they had gone to bed long ago.
Farmers usually go to bed very early at night. Firstly, it is too cold, and sleeping on a hot kang is not as comfortable as anything else. Secondly, it is to save lamp oil. If a family does not light the lamps all winter, the money saved on lamp oil is also very large. A considerable sum.
Therefore, as soon as it gets dark, the village merges with the night, and few families light oil lamps to do things at night.
Standing at the door, Caiwei asked Wu'er to call the door. Wu'er cleared his throat in a serious manner, straightened his neck and shouted in a milky voice: "Nine pounds, nine pounds."
After a sound of getting dressed, Aunt Zhou's confused voice came from the room: "Who is it?"
