Chapter 452 Can You Be a Little More Reserved?
In the past, even families with a little bit of better-off would not eat things like pork offal, let alone officials from the Ministry of Industry.
However, Li Jingshu is an expert at cooking pork and mutton offal, thanks to their neighbor in their previous life. The neighbor's hostess was from Guangdong, and she learned this from that neighbor.
The most important thing in making pork offal soup is that the ingredients must be fresh and clean. A freshly slaughtered pig must be fresh.
Another key point is pepper. Fry the pepper and grind it into pepper powder, which can be used to make pork soup to enhance the flavor and remove the fishy smell.
There were dozens of pots of pork soup, and everyone could get a big bowl. Not to mention others, even the officials from the Ministry of Works praised the soup highly.
"The soup is clear and delicious, the pork offal is fresh and tender, and the bean sprouts are crisp and refreshing. Mr. Shen, your wife's cooking skills are amazing."
When Shen Zhiqiu heard someone praising his wife, he was not modest at all. He even said happily: "My wife's cooking skills are really good, and she is also virtuous. I am lucky to have such a wife."
The adults who drank the soup were speechless. Shouldn't normal people be modest when they hear praise? You look like this and say, "My wife is so good, you can't envy her." What does that mean?
The men of the nine clans around him endured and endured, but finally couldn't help but yell in their hearts: "Old Third, it's okay to do this in our own home, but in front of outsiders, can you be a little reserved?"
Shen Youyou, who was drinking soup from a plastic basin, blew on the clear soup a few times, and the delicious aroma penetrated the air and went straight into her nostrils.
I took another sip of the boiling hot soup, and a refreshing and delicious flavor immediately filled my entire mouth, feeling so fresh and sweet.
Even in the dry and cold autumn, it can nourish the whole body and make people feel comfortable.
“So delicious!”
She picked up the pork offal in the bowl and put them into her mouth one by one. The unique taste and freshness of the various offal blended together. Then she took a mouthful of corn bread soaked in the soup. All the delicious flavors bloomed in her mouth, making her want to eat more.
He took a bite of pork offal, a bite of steamed bread, and a sip of soup. Soon, the plastic basin was empty, not even a mouthful of soup was left. He burped with satisfaction.
Shen Erya held the bowl and ate facing Shen Youyou. She ate whatever her sister ate and how her sister ate. In fact, she couldn't understand why food from the same pot tasted better when eaten in her sister's way than in other ways.
Shen Daya and Wang Taohua, who were eating in a more reserved manner, looked at their two sisters while drinking soup and said, "Look at you two eating so deliciously."
Shen Luming took a sip of the soup and couldn't help feeling happy:
"Drink it well, mother. Lulu likes you so much."
Even though her mouth was greasy from drinking, she still had to kiss Li Jingshu to express her happiness.
This was a big deal, and a bunch of little kids wanted to express their feelings. If their own mother hadn't quickly grabbed her, Li Jingshu would probably have been covered in kisses from the little kids today.
These kids were so excited that they couldn't stop eating and drinking. They held hands and spun around in circles. They didn't cry even when they got dizzy and fell to the ground. Instead, they laughed foolishly.
Haha, I’m so happy that I can eat pork for free again.
Even the other people were very satisfied with the pork offal soup. There was even a fellow villager who was doing corvée labor who slurped the soup while eating a few bites of steamed bread.
With a bulge in his mouth, he was still talking to the people around him: "I feel that this corvée service is different from the previous ones. The food is full and delicious, and even the corvées are kind."
The man who heard him rolled his eyes. He leaned close to the fellow villager and whispered, "Don't be silly. We are lucky to build a workshop for the nine tribes this time.
Look at Mr. Shen's family members, they are all kind, treating us and the police officers well. The police officers eat well and are in a good mood, so they seldom beat or scold us.
You guys came late and didn’t know that we were helping build the temple before. Those officials followed us and didn’t eat or drink well every day. Several officials over there urged us to work harder every day. The officials were in a bad mood and would whip anyone they didn’t like. ”
I have to say that this person is definitely a man with a clear vision and a sharp mind.
Shen Youyou, who had eaten and drunk her fill, went straight to Tang Guangzheng and said, "Master, I have something to tell you. Come with me when you are full."
Seeing her acting so mysterious, the village head Tang Guangzheng felt his scalp tingling. There was no way he could solve the math problem she gave him last time!
What if I get another one today?
Seeing the way the village chief looked at her, Shen Youyou was puzzled: "I shouldn't have offended the village chief, so why is he looking at her like that?"
However, she still approached the village chief and whispered, "I have a chance to help the brothers and sisters in the village make money."
Sure enough, this sentence worked. Tang Lizheng's eyes lit up and he went straight back to the Jiuzuyuan with Shen Youyou.
"Mr. Lizheng, we found a large persimmon forest on the mountain."
Tang Guangzheng thought it was something else, but it turned out to be a persimmon forest: "Are you talking about the Persimmon Slope, where there are two or three hills full of persimmon trees?"
"You know?"
"Yes, I know. How could I not know about such a large area of persimmons?"
“Then why doesn’t anyone pick it?”
Tang Guangzheng was quite casual in the Shen family. He just pulled a straw stool for himself to sit on:
"There is also a persimmon forest to the east of the village. If you want to eat persimmons, go there to pick them. As for Persimmon Hill, you'd better not go there. The older generation said that there are blind bears there."
After hearing this, Shen Youyou understood. It turned out that the persimmon forest was not the territory of wild boars in the past, but of blind bears. So even though the people of Tangjia Village knew that there were persimmons there, no one took the risk to go there.
What's more, there is a large persimmon forest to the east of Tangjia Village, so the children can pick persimmons and eat them.
There are still a lot of persimmons in Fangshan County, but the county cannot sell them at a good price, and the villagers will not sell them for money.
"Mr. Li, there are no bears there now. The wild boar we hunted today was lured out from there. And the size of that wild boar is big enough to fight a bear.
So there must be no blind bears. You know how protective wild boars are of their food. The blind bears would have been driven away long ago."
Although he agreed with what Shen Youyou said, after all, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain, he was still puzzled: "Persimmons can't be sold at a good price. We are short of everything in Fang County, except persimmons."
"If I tell the idle brothers and sisters in Tangjia Village to pick persimmons with me and make persimmon cakes according to my method, I will charge two cents for each persimmon."
"One persimmon, two cents?"
"Yes, two cents for a persimmon!"
"Have you discussed this with your father?"
Shen Youyou said helplessly: "I can make the decision, and I have money to give to everyone. You don't need to discuss it with my father. Don't worry. Tell the idle brothers and sisters in the village tonight to gather at our house early tomorrow morning."
Although she said it with certainty, Tang Guangzheng still decided to ask Shen Zhiqiu about this matter.
Shen Youyou didn't care about him. If he wanted to ask, go ahead and ask. She still had a lot of things to do.
Since I'm going to cook persimmons, I have to at least make a paring knife and the kind of persimmon peeling tools I saw in the video in my previous life. Otherwise, if I peel so many persimmons by hand, I'll definitely cut my wrists!
