Happy peasant girl

Chapter 16 Handling Sewerage
"Girl Xi, I really don't remember your Aunt Ma? Sigh, Ma used to give you steamed vegetables and steamed buns!" Shi Ma is a well-known skillful and warm-hearted woman in Linjia Village.

It's just that since her youngest daughter died of illness early and her youngest son was imprisoned, she has lost all energy. She, who used to like to visit the neighbors the most, also stays at her own home all year round.

At the beginning of this year, her eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to a precious grandson, and Ma Shi had a smile on her face. No, the eldest daughter-in-law wanted to learn from female celebrities, so she took the initiative to go out to ask, and learned about Lao Lin from Sun. The eldest daughter-in-law of the family was once the daughter of a scholar, and she is also the best embroidery worker in the village.

"Young girl Xi is such an obedient child, even Cao Agou, that bastard, is going to be ruthless. If my old lady bumps into her next time, I'll definitely beat him up!" Mrs. Sun is the wife of Lin Dawang, the head of Linjia Village. She looks a little taller than the average woman, with the hottest temper, warm and generous, although she is a little shrewd, she has no ill intentions for others and is more defensive.

"Miss Xi is suffering!" Mrs. Zhao said, looking at Lin Qingxi with distressed expression.

Mrs. Zhao is not as good as Mrs. Ma in terms of dexterity, Mrs. Sun is not as brave as Mrs. Mu, but she is not as good as Mrs. Mu in terms of ability, but she is gentle and calm, and she is the most popular in the village.

Back then, Linjia Village was not as impoverished as it is now. When Mrs. Ma and the others were young wives, Mrs. Ma, Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Mu who had the best relationship were once famous " Four Golden Flowers in Linjia Village".

Time is a ruthless butcher's knife, and life is a cruel pen that adds sorrow and suffering. The four lovely, lively and cheerful women in those days now look skinny, pale and haggard, and the wrinkles at the corners of their eyes seem to make them Each of them was more than ten years older than their actual age.

"Girl Xi has seen my aunt, two aunts, and two sisters-in-law!" Inexplicably, Lin Qingxi has a good impression of the women in front of her, maybe her former self is really close to them.

"Xi girl, don't stay at home all the time, go out and play with your sister Xiaoyu and sister Xiaotao. They all said that they haven't seen you for a long time and went to Dongtouer to play with them." The Xiaoyu in Sun's mouth is her eight years old Xiao Tao is the six-year-old daughter of the Zhao family. They and Lin Qingxi can be regarded as close playmates, but since Lin Qingxi woke up, they never went to the east of the village to find them.

"Well, girl Xi knows!" Lin Qingxi nodded obediently.

Afterwards, Mrs. Mu took a few people to the house to discuss with Mrs. Qin about learning embroidery, while Lin Qingxi quietly walked over after Lin Qingyun put down the basket and asked curiously: "Brother, why didn't you see grandma? What did you buy today?"

"Grandma is talking to some old grandmas at the entrance of the village! I bought some medium rice, two catties of good noodles, and fifty catties of black noodles." Lin Qingyun said in a lower voice.

"Didn't you buy any meat?" Lin Qingxi glanced at Lin Qingyun, and then at Lin Qinghao who had just entered the courtyard.

"Sister, meat is too expensive, but mother and grandma bought five sets of pig offal. Originally, grandma wanted to buy one pair of pig offal, but mother said that you would make these offal smell good, so grandma asked me to buy it. I spent hundreds of pennies on five sets of pigs!" Although it was tiring and smelly to carry pigs all the way, Lin Qinghao no longer complained when he thought that he could finally eat some meat-flavored food.

After Ma Shi and the others discussed the matter of learning embroidery and left, Linqingxi began to deal with these pigs. She never thought that Ye would buy so many pigs all at once.

When Mrs. Ye came back from the outside, Lin Qingxi couldn't help but asked her why she bought so much, but Mrs. Ye smiled "hehe", and said that if the method of treating the offal so that it doesn't stink is spread, maybe the pig's offal will be killed. It will increase the price, it is better to buy more while no outsiders know.

Lin Qingxi stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say to her grandma, now their old Lin's family can still afford pigs, and even if the price can go up, pigs are not pork.

Regardless of her grandmother's true thoughts, Lin Qingxi began to deal with the five sets of water in her yard. The old women in Lin's family were very curious about the way to deal with it, so the child was handed over to Lin Qingyun and several men to watch. Learn from Linqingxi.

First, Linqingxi asked Mu to find the only pair of scissors at home, and cut off the fat outside the pig's large intestine, or tear it off by hand.

Then fill the large intestine once with clean water, and turn the intestine upside down with chopsticks.

Lin Qingxi told Ye and the others that it would be fine to cut the intestines with scissors, but Ye and the others followed her example and turned the intestines from inside to outside.

The next step is to repeatedly wash the large intestines with salt, flour and water. Naturally, Ye and Mu disagreed with using white flour, but a small amount of black flour.

In the end, it was supposed to be treated with wine or vinegar, but the old Lin's woman felt that it was too wasteful. Since Lin Qingxi said that it could be rinsed with clean water, they didn't use vinegar.

After processing the large intestine of the pig, Lin Qingxi then taught them how to handle the pig heart, pig liver, pig lung, pig tongue, etc., because it was the old and the young who joined the battle, and the five pigs went into the water. The four women of the old Lin's family and Lin Qingxi Little girl, everything will be cleaned up soon.

After the pig offal was processed, Linqingxi told Ye, Mu, Qin and Wu how to use the pig offal to make braised vegetables.

Linqingxi was standing by the stove, teaching a few adults how to make stewed pig intestines. During the whole process, the old Linjia women did not ask her why she made these dishes. They gave her full trust and understanding. and inclusive.

When Linyuan Mountain returned home at night, they found that a large family was waiting for them to eat, and they could smell the fragrance coming from the north of the village, but they did not expect that the attractive fragrance came from their own home meals.

"I've eaten food for most of my life, and I've never realized that pig offal can make such delicious food!" Lin Yuanshan took a piece of stewed pig intestine and put it in his mouth. Linyuan Shan let out a sigh of relief. After a day of nervousness, he went home at night. After a sweet meal, he is very satisfied.

"Old man, this is a good idea that girl Xixi came up with. The smell of this stewed vegetables has attracted all the dogs in the village to our door, and many people have come to ask!" Ye's face was full of smiles, Regardless of the reason, it has been a long time since Lao Lin's family has had so many people like today.

"Then what did you say?" Linyuan Shan narrowed his eyes, his family has always been poor in the eyes of the villagers, and now that they eat good food, it is inevitable that no one will think about it.

"What else can I say? It's just that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I can't afford meat, so I bought some offal to nourish my family, but I just found a way to keep the pig offal from smelling." Mrs. Ye knew what Linyuan Mountain was worried about, so After the stewed vegetables were ready this afternoon, because the scent wafted too far, it attracted the barking of the dogs in the village, and then attracted some greedy people, so she told about the pigs she had bought into the water.
