The grand lady who time-traveled became a hot mom

Chapter 13

Fang Yumin took Xiao Ming and Aunt Chunhua to talk and laugh, and walked to the meat stall. It was getting late at this time, and sure enough, there was very little meat on the meat table and the iron hooks in the row of pork.In particular, there is almost no pork with white flowers, thick fat and fat.

People in ancient times were short of oil and water, so they all liked to buy large pieces of fat meat, not only delicious, but also oily.

When Aunt Chunhua saw that there was not much fat, she rushed up to have a look, and quickly picked out two pieces of fatty pork for herself.

Fang Yumin didn't stare at the fat like Aunt Chunhua. To be honest, lard is quite delicious, but she couldn't swallow a piece of fat for nothing.Instead, her eyes glanced under the chopping board, and she saw the big bones and pigs in the basket under the meat chopping board that had been thrown into the water.

Fang Yumin grinned, stretched out two fingers to pick up a piece of pork belly, looked at it, and said to the butcher: "This meat is not fat, boss, should it be cheaper?"

"Huh?" The butcher was a little taken aback by being called the boss by Fang Yumin. When he raised his eyes, he saw the smiling face on the opposite side. That smile was as warm as the spring breeze in March. It made people feel really comfortable to see him.

So the strong man smiled boldly and said: "Seeing that it is a lady who bought it, I will sell it to you for 18 Wen a catty."

"16 Wen, let's buy more, so you can go home early." Aunt Chunhua was afraid that Fang Yumin would not be able to handle it, so she rushed forward to bargain with the pork guy.

"That won't work, but if you buy all the rest of this, it will be 16 yuan a catty." The pork guy didn't talk nonsense anymore, he also wanted to go home early.

"But your meat is too thin, we don't want these pig's feet." Aunt Chunhua was a little embarrassed, she wanted to buy fat meat.And there was too much meat, she looked at Fang Yumin.

"If you buy them all, I'll give you 6 cents for this pair of pig's feet. Usually, I'll sell you 4 yuan for a pig's foot." Yumin and Aunt Chunhua watched.

"Boss, if we buy them all, can you give us the big bones and pig offal from your meat case?" Fang Yumin thought about it, and asked the pork guy with that smiling face.

"Okay, take it all if you want it." The pork guy originally wanted to throw that pair of pigs into the water, but when he saw Fang Yumin wanted it, he did it as a favor.

"Thank you so much." Fang Yumin laughed so hard that she couldn't see her teeth, and was about to ask Aunt Chunhua what kind of pork she wanted so that she could be weighed separately.But Aunt Chunhua pulled her sleeves and persuaded softly: "Lotus, these meats are too thin and too much, how can you agree to buy them?"

Aunt Chunhua's voice was quite loud no matter how softly she spoke, so the pork guy naturally heard her words.He looked at the meat on his chopping board, and it was actually a little thin. Although he looked fierce, he was also kind-hearted, so he automatically lowered the price: "Then it's 15 yuan, and I'll sell it for 15 yuan if you want it all." Wen, really can’t be less.”

"Okay, I'll buy them all." Fang Yumin didn't expect to be able to reduce the price, so she agreed immediately.She smiled like a flower and asked Aunt Chunhua: "Aunt Chunhua, besides these two pieces of meat, which one do you want?"

"You, you, oh." Aunt Chunhua originally wanted to buy only the two big chunks of fat meat she picked, but Fang Yumin said she wanted all of them, and she was embarrassed to only have a little.But... She has a lot of money on her shoulders, and it's not good to leave only lean meat for Xiaolian.

"Aunt Chunhua, it doesn't matter. I like to eat lean meat. Besides, I can marinate the extra meat to make bacon. Anyway, I don't often go to the market, so I buy enough at a time. It's just right." Fang Yumin also had a wink Yes, she also saw the embarrassed look on Aunt Chunhua's face.

"Okay, then I'll take this one more." Aunt Chunhua didn't hesitate and picked a thinner one.

So the pork guy happily weighed the meat and tied it neatly with plantain leaves. He can even wrap pigs into a bag made of several plantain leaves. He really is an expert.

Aunt Chunhua bought about three catties of meat, and the remaining six catties plus a pair of pig's feet went to Fang Yumin.After Fang Yumin paid, she smiled apologetically at Aunt Chunhua: "Aunt Chunhua, I have to trouble you to help carry the meat again."

"It's okay, it's okay, thanks to your blessings, I can buy such cheap pork." Aunt Chunhua was also happy. Even if it was about to be scattered in the past, the pork with a little fat would still sell for 16 or 17 yuan. Like the two fat ones she picked today, they sold for 18 renminbi.

Fang Yumin smiled and said nothing. I bought so much meat today that I can eat it for a long time.

"Little Lian, those pigs are very difficult to get into the water, and they don't taste good. Why do you want them? After they are collected, they all pay two cents a pair or throw them away. And this big bone, What are you doing here?" Aunt Chunhua really didn't understand, but she also put those pig offal and bones into her basket.

"Of course the big bones are used to stew soup. The taste is delicious and nutritious. If those pigs are cleaned, they will taste very good when used for cooking." Fang Yumin rolled her eyes and said to Aunt Chunhua with a smile: " I’ll make it when I get back today, and I’ll give you a bowl tomorrow to try it out, and keep you wanting to eat it.”

"That's good, if it's really delicious, next time I go to the market, I'll bring you some back." Aunt Chunhua said with a smile.

"Then it's settled." Fang Yumin smiled, and Aunt Chunhua's words hit her heart.Well, there is Uncle Gui, and I will give him a bowl tomorrow. He has an ox cart and probably comes to the county often. Few people want it.Offal is also meat, and now Fang Yumin's family is seriously short of meat!

The two big ones and one small hurried to the gathering place on the city wall, passing by the place where food was sold, Fang Yumin still stopped and bought a few meat buns to eat on the way.It should be two o'clock now, right?Even if you go back by bullock cart, you will arrive home after six o'clock.

"Xiao Lian, why are you spending money so generously today? Before, you wished you could break open a few petals for a penny."

"Xiao Ming is so thin just because of this saving. I thought about it, and I can't save a lot of money. It's better to find a way to make more money. It's serious. Aunt Chunhua, I want to raise two pigs. This pig How do you sell it?"

"You're right. You can only save your own belly. Do you want to raise pigs?"

"Yes, I want to raise more chickens. I plan to go to the mountain to cut some bamboo to make chicken coops in two days. By the way, how much is this piglet? Do you want to come to this county to buy it?"

"You'd better wait until Qiulai comes home to do these rough jobs. Your uncle's family has a sow, and you can buy the piglet from him after two months of birth, but you just beat your sister-in-law this morning... "

"Ah?" Fang Yumin opened her mouth in surprise when she heard this. Is that wicked woman her sister-in-law?This aunt beat her own nephew so fiercely?Who is this?
Aunt Chunhua thought that Fang Yumin was lamenting those piglets, so she quickly persuaded her, "But don't think that they will sell you cheap for the sake of brothers. You, you still haven't woken up after suffering so much, they didn't wake up at all. Treat you as a family. Xiao Lian, this piggy is wrapped around me."

Fang Yumin hadn't reacted from the phrase 'sister-in-law' when she heard that Aunt Chunhua was generous enough to help her find piglets again. She really felt that Aunt Chunhua was so kind to her and Xiaoming.He secretly decided that he would share with Aunt Chunhua any way he could make money or improve his life in the future.

"Again, didn't you say last time that your mother-in-law was rolling on the floor of your house crying and asking Qiu to give him the part-time job money? You were so depressed that you fell ill because of this. Where did you get the money to buy it? Piggy?" Aunt Chunhua wentssip.

No wonder that vicious woman was so sure that she had no money this morning. It turned out that she knew that Fang Xiaolian's family was so poor that she didn't even have a copper coin.Fang Yumin immediately disliked the mother-in-law who hadn't met yet, but now she had to deal with Aunt Chunhua: "Qiu Lai is hardworking and kind-hearted, so I have to save a little every time. Let her go. I'm not good at fighting the old man, am I?"

"That's right, but Xiaolian, your move is good. Qiulai is coming back soon, so don't let them follow you again." Aunt Chunhua sighed, looked at Fang Yumin again, and smiled: "I didn't expect you to It's good to be a little scheming, otherwise Xiao Ming would be too pitiful."

Fang Yumin smiled at Aunt Chunhua and said nothing, but Xiao Ming grabbed her hand even tighter.Children are the most sensitive and innocent, and who is good to him and who is bad to him is very clear, Fang Yumin tightly holds Xiao Ming's hand and smiles comfortingly at him.The three of them didn't talk all the way, but they arrived at the meeting point before Weishi, and they were all sweating profusely.

"Chunhua, why did you buy so much meat?" Seeing Aunt Chunhua coming over with a load, the aunt who was [-] or [-] away, saw the meat in her basket with sharp eyes.

"This is from Qiulai and my wife's house. We bought some more when we saw it was cheap. Don't think that the bread inside is all meat. The ones here are pig offal and big bones." Aunt Chunhua explained with a smile. Da Ma is a big trumpet, and she can blow it to the whole village in a while.

The aunt had an expression of disbelief, and she looked at Fang Yumin again with her cloudy eyes. She was also taken aback by Fang Yumin this morning.Sure enough, rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, just look at Lin Chunlai's wife.

Originally, the aunt decided not to mess with Fang Yumin, but when she saw that she was carrying a big cloth bag, she couldn't control her mouth and gossip again: "Daughter-in-law Qiulai, why did you buy so much cloth? It cost a lot money?"

"Where is this cloth? It's all rags. Don't throw it out. I saw that it can be used if you put it together, so I took a bag home to see if I can put together a pillow towel." Fang Yumin had already seen When Aunt Chunhua winked at her, she knew she had to be careful with what she said to the aunt.

"Ah, you bought so many meat buns..." The aunt took her eyes on the buns in Xiao Ming's hand again, and was about to ask, but was interrupted by Uncle Gui: "Is everyone here? I'm leaving now " Then he said to Fang Yumin and the others: "Hurry up and get all your things into the car, Xiao Ming will also come up and sit down, he is going home."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Gui." Xiao Ming has been following Fang Yumin to watch her work this day, and even in his ignorance, he knows that there are many people who are polite.Now that Uncle Gui told him to get in the car, he learned how to thank Uncle Gui politely like Fang Yumin did.

"Hehe, Xiao Ming is so good." Everyone likes polite and well-behaved children, Uncle Gui is no exception.He was so happy that he bent down and carried Xiao Ming into the bullock cart himself.

Fang Yumin smiled and gave Xiao Ming a thumbs up quietly, Xiao Ming's neck was red with shame, but he was sweet in his heart, and secretly decided that he must be more polite in the future.

After Fang Yumin helped Aunt Chunhua carry all the baskets onto the ox cart, she returned home under the eyes of everyone.

Fang Yumin didn't care what other people looked at, she was just excitedly thinking about what to do with the pork, pig feet and pig offal.Fortunately, I bought spices and soy sauce today. For these pig feet, it is best to wash them with water and cook them.Well, the pork should be marinated as soon as possible, dried in the sun during the day, hung on the stove to smoke when cooking at night, steamed to eat or cooked on top of rice, it is also very fragrant.

Fang Yumin's mouth is watering just thinking about the big intestines, pig's feet and bacon.Because of her drooling, Xiao Ming who was sitting on her lap didn't know why, thinking that his mother was hungry, so he hurriedly stuffed all the meat buns in his hand to Fang Yumin.
