Nongmen Jiao Nv: Escape from the famine with space

Chapter 118 It's All Hard Dishes (22)

Hearing what Aunt Wang said, little brother Wan finally felt relieved. After Aunt Wang counted the dishes in the kitchen, she got into Uncle Wang's donkey cart and went back to her village.

Aunt Wang couldn't rest for a moment, and the two of them who didn't have lunch got off the donkey cart directly at the door of Wen's house. Before anyone came in, the voice came in first, "Wen's family, are you at home?"

As soon as she heard the voice of Aunt Wang, the gentle man who was chopping firewood at the door immediately opened the courtyard door and welcomed the person in, "Auntie, come in quickly."

Looking at the dusty appearance of the two of them, Wen Hou asked: "Master, aunt, you came here from there, look at this donkey and the mud on the cart."

You can tell at a glance that it is not the style of Uncle Wang who loves cleanliness.

Aunt Wang smiled and said: "Yes, I can't be idle for a moment, so I have to settle the matter quickly, and I feel more at ease."

Hearing that it was Aunt Wang's voice, all members of the Wen family hurriedly welcomed him in, and Wen Yu asked, "Aunt Wang, are you sure?"

"It's confirmed, it's like this, my natal family's family is like that, so the banquet is not particularly high, only one day, one meal at noon, we originally planned to give the cook two taels of silver, and now we will give you two taels of silver, Xin I mentioned before that I need to bring my own seasoning, and I added another tael of silver, so I will give you three taels of silver in total.

Three taels of silver is really a lot, after all, it is only a table for noon, one can imagine how much that little brother attaches importance to this banquet.

"Okay ma'am, ma'am, tell me what are the dishes."

"Because there are no vegetables in the field, so I have to buy all the vegetables outside. For green vegetables, there are 5 dishes in total. For meat dishes, I bought 2 pigs and killed them. Oh, there are 15 tables in total for the banquet. In addition, I will also buy some tofu. For the rest, see how many dishes you can cook."

Aunt Wang thought about it again, and said: "Xin'er, I only ate the water that you made, and it was delicious. I can make this dish that day."

"Okay." But if it's 15 tables, the two pigs are a little too small. "Then I'll buy a few more sets of water separately, at least 3 sets, otherwise 15 tables won't be enough."

"Okay, this thing is easy to buy, and I will also buy some offal when the time comes, and that stuff is also delicious when fried together."

Wenxin said: "If there are more at that time, Xin'er can fry them separately. The internal organs are also delicious. If there are two pigs, stew the pig's trotters and pig's feet in soup. This stuff is very oily, and the stewed white ends There is a lot of oil on the table and it looks good. The blood of the other two pigs is also kept. It can be used as a pig-killing dish. This is also delicious. The ribs are directly burned. If the meat is meat, it can be made into meatballs, but I need a few men to chop the meat for me. , Will there be someone there by then? The brothers in my family are not enough."

The point is that the older brothers in their family have thin arms and legs, and she was really afraid that the meat from the two pigs would exhaust her older brothers.

"That's enough. The few in your family, plus my three sons, are enough for you to order. If it doesn't work, I will arrest them on the spot." Aunt Wang said proudly. After all, the usefulness of having a son has finally been revealed. Their family has never lost in physical labor, let alone her good popularity.

"Okay, do you need to save some of this meat?"

"It doesn't limit you, you can use everything, do you have any other ideas?"

"That's great. Didn't the aunt say that there is tofu? Use tofu and meat to make tofu balls, and meat to make meatballs. I will cook them with green vegetables. I can also add some glutinous rice to make pearl balls. These meat dishes are very good. , Ribs can also be fried, but you can’t just eat meat, is there any fish?”

"Yes, one fish per table."

"Then braise it in soy sauce, then make a sweet soup, a small soup garden with egg fermented glutinous rice, and the 5 vegetables you mentioned..." Wenxin counted, what was said and what was not said, a total of 12 dishes, "12 dishes The food should be enough."

Aunt Wang smiled and said: "Enough, enough, 12 dishes is a lot, and the dishes you mentioned are all hard dishes."

"That's right." After speaking, Wen Yu hurriedly said, "Ma'am, when will this pig be killed?"

Aunt Wang said: "It's too late to kill the pigs the day before the wedding banquet. The pigs are killed very quickly, and the meat will be changed to knives, but some dishes need to be prepared in advance."

"Yes, we'll start the day before." It's good to make the meatballs one day in advance, otherwise it's too late to fry and eat the next day.

The aunt said that it will be five days later, but it is actually the sixth day, so it is enough to go to Aunt Wang’s natal house on the second day after they teach the Zhang family’s prescription, and there will be no delay on both sides, “Then aunt will take these few days. The food for the day is ready, and I will go there with you the next day when we come back."

The two families chatted happily, and the time naturally passed quickly.

Three days passed in a flash, and before dawn, Zhang's carriage stopped at the door of Wen's house. The movement of the carriage, which arrived early at this time, didn't even startle a single villager.

And Wen Yu and Wen Xin were well prepared, so when the carriage arrived, they got on the carriage and left the village.

I have to say that sitting on a horse...was not as comfortable as I imagined. I don't know if it was because of the carriage or because she was not used to it. Anyway, she felt a little nauseous because of the wobbling, but there was one thing, the speed was still very fast. Soon, they entered the city at dawn.

However, the Zhang family hadn't gotten up yet at this time, and said warmly: "Little brother, why don't my brother and I go to the neighborhood to buy some food, we haven't had breakfast yet, we won't go far, we'll be there in a while."

Seeing that Mrs. Zhang had specifically confessed to treat these two people well, the little brother driving the car was not easy to stop him, so he just told him: "Then go and come back quickly."

"Ah."

Wen Xin and Wen Yu wandered around the area closer to Zhang's mansion, but they couldn't find any food to eat. Wen Xin was speechless, "There's nothing to eat around here. Maybe if you want to eat, you have to go to the market."

Wen Yu smiled and said, "The market is too far away."

"Then you have to eat." Wen Xin turned her head and thought of the space, she said: "Whatever the second brother wants to eat, Xin Er will make some for you."

Wenxin bought some quick-frozen food, which can be eaten in a few minutes in the microwave or fried in a pan, which is very convenient.

Wen Yu said: "Okay, let's go to a place where no one is there."

The two turned around and went to a place where no one was around. Wen Xin went into the space and fried four pieces of beef patties and brought them out on a plate. Drinking a glass of milk, "Second brother, eat quickly."

Wen Yu looked at the pancakes and milk, knew that the food was unusual, so she didn't ask any more questions, and said, "This pancake smells really good."

Warmly said: "Beef cakes are delicious."

It is very rare to be able to eat beef in this age, because cattle are used for farming, and under normal circumstances they will not eat cattle, unless something unexpected happens and the cattle are almost dead or already dead, then they will eat beef , but that is only for dignitaries to eat. It is conceivable that the price of beef is so high, how can farmers like them afford it.
