Chapter 16 Braised Pork
  Liu learned embroidery from her grandmother when she was a child.

When he grew up, he excelled in embroidery.

Among girls, her craftsmanship is notoriously good.

If her hand hadn't been injured in the embroidery competition held by the county that year, the winner would have been not her, but another girl from the same village.
  The other party went to the county to embroider a picture of Guanyin for the mother of the county magistrate, and then was noticed by a nobleman, and became the young mistress of the county's beautiful embroidery house.

Later, she also chose the head of the family in a match arranged by her family and married to Dahe Village.
  It was only in the past two years that her hands became better and her hands stopped shaking when holding needles.

But after all, my hands are rough and my stitching skills are unfamiliar, so the embroidery is not as vivid as before.

However, it is enough to do some work in the embroidery studio in the town.

This screen is the largest piece of embroidery she has received in recent years.

The shopkeeper said that as long as she can deliver the goods, she will be given ten taels of labor fee!
  For this money, whatever she said must be done!

Unconsciously, the outline of the center of the picture of hundreds of birds facing the phoenix has begun to appear.

Mrs. Liu rubbed her sore wrist and rested for a while.

Just as I was placing the embroidery needle on the embroidery, a strong and overbearing fragrance hit me.
  Fragrant~
  so fragrant~
  Who is cooking meat?
  Wait, is this the pig offal braised in your own kitchen?
  In the yard——

Brother Chuan was lying at the door of the kitchen, sweating non-stop.

Jiang Changfa rarely mentioned his son. When he was chopping firewood, his little eyes kept looking at the kitchen~
  "pat~"

A piece of firewood as thick as the mouth of a bowl fell apart like this.

Song Yu helped stack them and handed over the wooden piles.

Ashamedly, with his current strength, it is quite difficult to lift a hatchet. Let alone chopping firewood, just collect firewood.

"Fubao~"

Old Mrs. Xu was in the kitchen, suffering terribly.

It was so fragrant. She had never seen such an overbearing fragrance. She was obviously half full from lunch, so why was she so hungry now?
  No, she had to ask her granddaughter if it was ready and if she could take some out and taste it.

"Hey, milk, bring out some braised food, let's have a taste."

Fubao is not much better, he is greedy for meat.

Not to mention other people who don't have enough oil and water, this fragrance is really overbearing.

"Good good."

Old Xu said excitedly that he could finally have a taste.

According to what she smelled, just this fragrance would definitely make it happen!
  As soon as he heard that he could taste it, Jiang Changfa held out his hatchet and signaled Brother Yu to stop working and let’s taste the braised food together!
  Ms. Liu was also tempted out of the room by the scent, and came over after hearing the words.

Food is the most important thing for the people. How can foodies stand up to delicious food?

Mrs. Xu religiously took a clean sea bowl, opened the lid, and the aroma was fragrant~
  Carefully take the spatula and scoop the "pieces of meat" into the bowl.

Then he put the lid on the pot, took the chopsticks, and walked out.

The whole family was staring at the bowls and chopsticks in her hand.

"Mom, I'm in good health. I'll try it."

Jiang Changfa suggested. On the one hand, no one had eaten this stuff, and on the other hand, he couldn't wait.

"Okay, you try it first."

Mrs. Xu glanced at her son angrily, took a chopstick and fed it to her son.

The joy on Jiang Changfa's face suddenly made him cry after eating the unknown "meat".

"Dad, does it taste bad?"

Fubao didn't understand why, and for a moment he didn't dare to move his chopsticks.

Does it taste bad?
  It smells so good, it must have been a success.

Why is dad crying?
  "Master, please say something."

Mrs. Liu was also surprised. She shook the boss. Unexpectedly, without looking at Brother Chuan, he reached out and grabbed the exposed meat on the edge of the bowl and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Then, gobble it up.

"Good times~"

"I want it, I want it~"

"Pah."    Fu Bao had quick eyes and quick hands and slapped his brother's chubby hand away.

Disapproved:

"Jiang Xiaochuan, don't use your hands!"

At the same time, Jiang Changfa cried:
  "It's delicious. It's so delicious. It turns out that we have missed such delicious pig meat for so many years!"

"It's delicious. Why are you crying? Come on, let's try it too."

Mrs. Xu breathed a sigh of relief, picked up some pieces of meat and fed them to her granddaughter and daughter-in-law.

When it was Brother Yu's turn, she paused. She had used these chopsticks. Would Brother Yu dislike it?
  "Grandma, grab a piece and give me a taste."

Song Yu opened his mouth and motioned for grandma to feed him.

Do as the Romans do, and some of his habits shouldn't be adhered to, right?
  "Hey."

Old Mrs. Xu nodded and picked the largest piece for Brother Yu.

Finally, it was herself. After tasting it, she couldn't describe the taste.

Do the gods in the sky all eat such delicious food?
  No wonder my son cried. When the pig was being slaughtered at home last year, the pig was lost in the water!

Regret!
  What a regret!
  Delicious, so delicious!

"Grandma, I want more~"

"Ah~"

Brother Chuan is like a chick, opening his mouth wide, even if he only has a few small glutinous rice teeth, he still wants to eat meat!
  "Knock knock knock~"

"Aunt Xu~"

"What kind of meat are you cooking at home? My fat girl is crying for it. Can you give it to my fat girl? I'll bring flour in exchange~"

"Knock knock knock~"

"Aunt Xu, my tiger baby smells the fragrance and wants to eat meat. Please open the door and give it to my tiger baby evenly. I brought sausages in exchange~"

Yes, the fragrance is so overbearing that it made the children in the neighborhood cry.

After all, if someone gives you something in exchange, you can't be unkind.

Fu Bao thought for a while and quickly whispered to his grandma.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xu nodded repeatedly, then went to open the door with a smile.
  “It smells so good~”

"Damn it, I figured out a secret recipe and planned to sell it for money. I didn't expect that your grandchildren would smell it because they have such sharp noses~"

Mrs. Xu admitted that she made the fragrance at home, and at the same time, she also joked and told everyone that she made the things to sell them for money, so it would not work to ask for them for free.

"Aunt Xu's craftsmanship is so good. It's so fragrant. Not to mention my fat girl, even I can't bear it. How do you plan to sell it? I brought flour to see if I can get enough for a bowl."

"Aunt Xu, and me. My tiger baby is crying and clamoring for food. I also brought something. How much can I exchange for this sausage?"

With these two women answering, the others watched quietly and stepped back with some embarrassment.

Not everyone wants to barter, there are also people who want to get something for nothing and want to beg shamelessly.

"To be honest, this thing tastes just like meat, and it's quite chewy when cooked. What a taste~"

Mr. Xu sold it off and sold it without leaving any trace.

"Just tell me how much it is. If I don't change it, my granddaughter will flood my house with tears~"

"That's right, Aunt Xu, tell me how much it will cost, I won't counter-offer."

These two old people love their children and grandchildren, and their family conditions are not bad, so they have the confidence to say so.

Old Xu said:

"A bowl of braised pork, four copper coins."

"Add soup for five copper coins."

As soon as he finished speaking, most of the people at the door were gone.

The rest is curiosity on the one hand, and wondering whether to buy it on the other.

The price is indeed not cheap, but Mr. Xu dares to say this.
