Chapter 107 What's wrong with Xiao An? (one more)

Put oil in the pot, push in minced ginger and garlic, and the cold oil will gradually release its aroma as it heats up.

Then, pour in the quail pieces and quail viscera, put the quail eggs aside and soak them in cold water for later use.

Stir-fry quickly in the pot to let the quail pieces be heated evenly, cover the pot and simmer for a while.

"Qing'er, your Uncle Changgeng, I told you, in two days after tomorrow he will help us plant the rapeseed and wheat, and he and your Aunt Osmanthus will go back to Aunt Osmanthus' natal home."

Mrs. Sun raised her head and discussed with Yang Ruoqing.

"What I mean is that when they go back to their mother's house this time, they will catch the little piglet. Aunt Osmanthus asked me to go with them and return on the same day. What do you think?"

Yang Ruoqing nodded happily: "Sure, it's better to go and choose by yourself."

"Qing'er, how many shall we catch?" Sun asked.

"Three." Yang Ruoqing said.

"Isn't it difficult to support three people? Didn't you say two last time?" Sun asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "I thought about it later, and decided to raise three. Two males and one female."

"If you really want to raise three piglets, how about three sow piglets? I don't mind the male piglets. When they grow fat, they have to be castrated. It's a waste of time!" Sun said.

Yang Ruoqing didn't chew, and seemed lost in thought.

People in the Mianniu Mountain area raise pigs, and most of them raise sows.

Sows can be sold for money, they can kill meat, and they can also give birth to piglets for money.

Raise boars, mainly eunuchs.

It's better if the weather is colder, but when the weather is hot, the barrows will be festered and filled with pus, which is how many boars die like that.

Don't castrate it, the boar will grow up a bit, and he will be thinking about other things all day long, he won't grow fat just by eating!

Therefore, the price of heifers in this area is higher than that of boars, but even so, everyone would rather catch heifers when raising pigs.

"Mother, I've thought about it carefully. If we don't follow suit, we'll catch two boars and one sow." Yang Ruoqing carefully analyzed it with Sun.

"One sow, let's keep the cubs to sell for money. Two boars, one castrated, can be fattened up and sold for money, or killed for the New Year. There is another boar, we don't eunuch or castrate. Sell ​​but don't kill!"

"Yeah? What are you raising it for?" Mrs. Sun looked puzzled.

"Let's raise it to be a breeding pig!" Yang Ruoqing smiled and blinked.

"We have eight villages ten miles below Mianniu Mountain. The number of breeding pigs is less than five fingers. They are all old pigs and sick pigs that were missed by castration. We will raise breeding pigs to breed pigs in nearby villages. , set a price, as long as the pig lives for three to five years without any major problems, we can not only get back the capital, but also make money!"

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's analysis, Sun's eyes lit up.

She couldn't help but think of the sow's cub in Old Yang's family. When it was time to hold the cubs, the villages were struggling to find a suitable adult breeding pig!

It was bred twice with the old and thin boar from the next village, but it didn't match.

Later, I asked people everywhere to bring a pig from another village to breed, but this time it was mated at once, so the pig's seeds were not good.

The piglets born in that litter were not easy to feed, and several of them died of illness before they came out of the nest.

That year, the sows in Lao Yang's family died of a loss. After that, the Tan family no longer raised pig mothers. They were all fattened up and sold for money or slaughtered for meat.

"Qing'er, that's a great idea. That is, if you raise three pigs at once, where is the pigsty?" Sun asked again.

Yang Ruoqing smiled, and pouted towards the courtyard outside the kitchen: "Isn't there an open space next to the pigsty of grandpa and grandma? Let's build a pig's nest there then. Pull some fishing nets on the side Come back, insert the bamboo fence, and build a chicken pen."

"Success!" Sun nodded with a smile.

At this time, the quail in the pot gave off a burnt smell.

Yang Ruoqing quickly lifted the lid of the pot, and at a glance, the quail was stewed out of fat, and the skin and meat on the surface were attractively golden.

Added a ladle of water to the pot, stirred it a few times, and Yang Ruoqing put the lid on the pot again.

I took a clean earthenware bowl, put salt, sauce, vinegar, a little caramel in it, grabbed a handful of dried chili, chopped it and put it in, and finally, I twisted a little wheat flour and mixed it with hot water. Water, stir quickly with chopsticks.

"Qing'er, what are you doing with all these seasonings in one bowl?"

Seeing Yang Ruoqing's actions, Mrs. Sun was puzzled.

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled mysteriously: "Mother, I'm making a broth. I'm very particular about the amount of each ingredient in it. This is my exclusive recipe. I won't tell ordinary people!"

While talking, more white steam came out from the side of the pot.

Yang Ruoqing quickly lifted the lid of the pot, and poured the prepared broth in the bowl.

Put the fifteen quail eggs in, and turn it gently to let the soup permeate evenly, and then cover the pot.

When it was out of the pot, the color of the quail became particularly attractive and attractive, and the soup successfully penetrated into it.

Yang Ruoqing sprinkled in the chopped green onions, put them in a bowl and put them in the pot.

While turning her head, she shouted to the outside of the kitchen: "Da'an, Xiao'an, come quickly..."

There was no movement outside.

"What's the matter, these two boys? You don't come for such a good thing as letting them taste the food?"

Yang Ruoqing said, turned her head to the door of the kitchen, and glanced outside.

This look startled her.

I saw Da'an carrying Xiao'an on his back, running towards the kitchen with a pale face in panic.

Xiao An's head lay on Da'an's shoulder, Yang Ruoqing didn't see Xiao An's face, but she saw blood dripping down Xiao An's face.

Part of it stuck to Daan's shoulder, turning red, and another part fell to the ground.

So much so that Da'an ran all the way over, leaving a string of red blood drops behind him!

"Da An, Xiao An, what's the matter?"

Yang Ruoqing yelled and ran over.

Da'an's voice was crying, "Sister, Xiao'an's nose is bleeding a lot!"

"Don't panic, let's talk in the room first!"

The noise here alarmed Mrs. Sun in the kitchen. When Mrs. Sun came out and saw this, she screamed in fright and almost fell to the ground.

Carrying Xiao An into the house, the old grandson, Yang Huazhong and Chang Geng in the house were all shocked when they saw this!

"What's going on? What's going on here? Da'an, how do you behave as a brother?"

Yang Huazhong patted the edge of the bed so anxiously that he almost slipped off the bed.

Old Sun was so distressed that his old face was distorted. He picked up the scissors that Sun made shoes at the foot of the bed, and was about to rush out.

He was stopped by Chang Geng.

"Old Uncle Sun, don't be impulsive, listen to what Da'an has to say before you go!"

Yang Ruoqing ordered Mrs. Sun to bring a basin of hot water, rolled up her sleeves and quickly stopped Xiao An's bleeding.

Old Sun Tou and Sun Clan Chang Geng surrounded him.

Here, Yang Huazhong called Da'an to the bedside, "What's going on? Don't cry, it's quick!"

Da'an raised his sleeves to wipe away the tears from his eyes, choked up and said, "Father, it was my aunt who beat you..."

"What?" Yang Huazhong's eyeballs almost fell to the ground.

"Isn't your sister-in-law at your second uncle's place in the town? Why are you back?" Yang Huazhong asked.

Yang Ruoqing had already treated Xiao An's nose briefly, and Xiao An also woke up, and Mrs. Sun hugged Xiao An in her arms and cried.

When the old grandson heard that the culprit was Yang Huazhong's sister, Yang Huamei, the old man didn't rush out, but his face was as black as the bottom of a pot!

"We don't care why my aunt came back, Da'an, don't panic, what's going on? Let's start from the beginning!" Yang Ruoqing came over and asked while wiping the blood from her hands.

"Qing'er, how is Xiaoan's nose?" Yang Huazhong asked again.

"Thank goodness the nasal bone is not broken, but I suffered a lot of nosebleeds!"

Yang Ruoqing said, her eyes turned back to Da'an: "Da'an, you continue to finish what you just said, why did my sister beat us Xiao'an?"
