Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 121 Pork Head Meat

As soon as her mother left, her second sister Chunhua followed closely behind.

Chunqiu saw the reluctance of the second sister in front of her, looked up at Chunhua, and asked in a daze, "Second sister, what are you doing?" She didn't let Chunhua come over to help, her second sister How do you know she's cooking?Could it be that there is no telepathy between foodies?It's not like, Chunqiu frowned, seeing her second sister's face of bitterness and hatred, she obviously didn't come here voluntarily, could it be that when she went to the kitchen before, her uncle saw her and ran away on purpose Did you go back and let Chunhua come over?Before he knew it, Chunqiu guessed the truth.

After listening to Chunqiu's words, Chunhua pouted her mouth, frowned, and muttered unhappily, "Mother asked me to come here." Chunhua's temperament is simple at best, and heartless at worst. Those who kept it directly confessed to her mother, Mrs. Gu.

Sure enough, Chunqiu felt emotional, no wonder when she came out with the seasoning, the aunt was not there, so she went back to the house to call Chunhua, but what's the use of calling Chunhua to come over?Are you going to steal a teacher to learn art?Chunqiu believes that her aunt Gu's idea is good, but unfortunately she chose the wrong person. If this is Miss Chunni, maybe she can really learn from her, but if it is her second sister Chunhua, it is not Chunqiu who dislikes it, but her second sister That kind of character who only knows how to eat and eat, should have forgotten the task assigned by her aunt when she smelled the aroma of pig's head meat.

What Chunqiu was thinking in his heart, he couldn't say it out of his mouth, Chunqiu rolled his eyes furtively, and then followed Chunhua's words, "Second sister, uncle asked you to come here to help, right?"

After Chunhua finished speaking, she also realized that she said something she shouldn't have said. She was worried that Chunqiu would ask why her mother asked her to come here. One reason, this made Chunhua so happy, she nodded vigorously after hearing it, "Yes, yes, that's what mother meant."

Chunqiu looked at the simple and cute second sister in front of him, and smiled with the corners of his mouth open, "Second sister, I want to make some pork head meat, please help me to light the fire."

"Pig head? This stuff smells so bad, can it be eaten?" Chunhua wrinkled her nose slightly, looked curiously at the pig's head which was cut in half by Chunqiu and was still clean, shaking her head for a while.

"It doesn't stink, it doesn't stink." After Chunqiu finished speaking, he pointed to the basin containing the pig's head, "Second sister, if you don't believe me, smell it, it doesn't stink at all." I deliberately soaked the pig's head in hot water for a long time, and there was no such stench at all.

Chunhua looked at Chunqiu, put her face on Chunqiu's face, lowered her head dubiously and sniffed, and then sniffed again. After finding that there was really no smell, she smiled happily, "Third sister, there is really no smell, the smell is gone." Chunhua thought of the smelly pig's head that was placed in the backyard before, and compared it with the white, tender, clean pig's head in front of her eyes, and exclaimed in her heart, her third sister is so smart, this smelly pig's head can eat.

"Second sister, don't talk about it, go and light the fire." Chunqiu directly pushed Chunhua to the side of the stove, "Second sister, when the pork head meat is ready, I will give you a bowl." His mind was firmly fixed on Zhu Tou.

"I want more, the more the better." Chunhua pouted the firewood and stared at Chunqiu, as if she could see a flower coming out of Chunqiu's face.

What Gu Shi told her by holding her ear before was thrown out of the sky by her long ago, and she forgot everything about careful observation and serious memorization.

Chunqiu smiled inwardly, she actually knew what her auntie was thinking, she was probably jealous because of the money she earned, not to mention the matter of Gu's family before, their big house probably didn't have much money left.

But Chunqiu didn't mind her aunt's petty thoughts, because she had no intention of using pork head meat to make money at all, she was simply greedy and wanted to eat it.

Since her aunt wants to learn, then look after her, anyway, she doesn't hide her secrets from Chunhua, if Chunhua can really remember, it's her skill, but Chunqiu sneaks a look at Chunhua's face, I'm afraid this foodie has already forgotten herself But Chunqiu doesn't intend to remind her, if she can learn, she can learn, and if she can't, don't blame her for not teaching.

"Hey, I know, Second Sister, there must be a lot for you." After Chunqiu finished speaking, she told Chunhua to light a fire quickly, and she took out a jar from the back of the kitchen, poured all the soy sauce in the jar into the pot, and then Chunqiu picked up the small cloth bag on the side, sprinkled the star anise, cinnamon, ginger, pepper, and brown sugar into it, and finally put in white wine, salt, and an appropriate amount of water.

"Second sister, lower the fire." Chunqiu shouted at Chunhua after putting out the seasoning.

"Hey, I know." Chunhua nodded, and then slowed down the speed of putting firewood into the stove.

After Chunhua boiled the sauce in the pot with low heat, Chunqiu put the pig's head that had been packed into it directly, then covered the pot, and let Chunhua on the side light up the fire.

Slowly simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes. Chunqiu directly lifted the lid of the pot, picked up the chopsticks on the side and carefully turned it over. At this time, the color of the inside and outside of the pig's head is obviously different. Chunqiu directly put the pig's head back and forth. A, and then stew up.

When the color of the pig's head turned dark red and the chopsticks were still easy to insert, Chunqiu asked Chunhua to stop the fire, and then stretched out his hand to greet Chunhua, "Second sister, try it and see if the taste is mild?" Chunqiu He directly scooped out a piece of pork head from the inside without dipping it in any sauce, and handed it to Chunhua carelessly.

Chunhua looked at the large piece of lean meat in front of her, and opened her mouth to eat it regardless of whether it was hot or not.

"How is it? Is it okay?" Chunqiu looked nervously at Chunhua's expression, this was the first time she did it here, and she didn't know how it was done.

"Yeah, it's really delicious." Chunhua covered her swollen mouth, squinted her eyes and nodded vigorously, and said to Chunqiu in a panic after swallowing the whole piece of lean meat in her mouth , "Sanmei, your meat is delicious, neither salty nor bland, just right"

"Really? Isn't it bland?" Chunqiu tilted her head and looked at Chunhua. She didn't put much salt in it before, and she was worried that the pig's head would not taste good.

"It's not bad, anyway, it's just right for me to eat, I don't know about others." After Chunhua finished speaking, she said to Chunqiu excitedly, "Sanmei, you promised to give me a bowl before, but I haven't eaten before." , I want to eat now”

"Okay, second sister, you go get the bowl." Chunqiu nodded, thinking that she should put some salt in her mind. Her grandma is getting old, and the salt is a bit heavy. Although it is not good to eat too much salt, but it is okay if she puts less. It's tasteless, not to mention that Grandma's teeth are not good, Chunqiu decided to stew the other half of the pig's head to make it easier for her grandpa to eat.

Chunhua directly took the big white bowl they made Liangpi before, handed it to Chunqiu with a smile on her face, and then begged Chunqiu to give her more.

"Second sister, I can't eat too much, I still have to eat at noon." Now the Yang family has three meals a day. They eat simple breakfast, good lunch, and full dinner. Very happy, now it is past ten o'clock in the morning, and after one o'clock, their family should have dinner, Chunqiu is worried that Chunhua eats too much, and the meal is delicious at noon, if it is too full, it will be troublesome .

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll eat less at noon." Chunhua only had pig's head meat in her eyes, so she couldn't remember what happened at noon. Even Chunqiu, who is a micro foodie, is ashamed. After all, her second sister Chunhua is too obsessed with food.

What Chunhua said was perfunctory, but Chunqiu didn't care, she had already reminded, whether she was obedient or not, it was not something she could control, Chunqiu directly cut a small piece from the side of half a pig's head that was fished out, and then used a kitchen knife to cut it off. Cut this small piece into small pieces, put it into a white bowl until it was full, then handed the white bowl to Chunhua, "Second Sister, go and eat" Chunqiu smiled and sent it away spring flowers.

Chunhua ran out with the bowl in her arms. Chunqiu first put some salt on the pig's head that was still stewing in the pot, then bent down to light the fire, then turned her head and washed her hands, and cut out the remaining pig's head.

The pig heads that Yuan bought were very big, even if they cut a bowl for Chunhua directly, the remaining pig heads were the same as before. Chunqiu planned to cut these pork into slices and put them in bowls, and serve them as cold dishes for lunch Serve it up, her grandpa loves wine, isn't this chewy pig's ear officially a good appetizer?Chunqiu also deliberately cut off the pig's ears in the pot, and prepared to use two pig's ears to mix a plate of cold dishes, and serve her grandpa with wine.
