I raised a husband in ancient times

Chapter 13

Most of the wild boars were exchanged for one tael of silver. It was not a huge profit, but compared with the price in my heart, it was still a bit high. The meat of the wild boar was chewy and the price was higher.

It could have been sold for a higher price, but he deliberately kept the meat from the pork ribs and did not sell them. Good things had to be kept for his family.

"Not only wild boars, I also accept other meat."

Butcher Li said meaningfully to Lu Yiming before sending the two of them out. He was sure that there would be a lot of business from him in the future, which is why he would sell him a good one to make up for it. One tael of silver.

Lu Yiming nodded. The price at Butcher Li was indeed fair. He also understood that the price would not be so high next time. This was normal, but overall it was a good deal. After all, if a wild boar was transported to the town, it would also cost manpower and material resources. , not necessarily more profitable.

"Thank you, brother. It rained yesterday so we didn't go to your house to say thank you. If you need anything in the future, just come to us."

The big man in his thirties smiled simply. Although he said less, he was more sincere.

"Okay."

"By the way, there are some living creatures in the trap. I'll take them to your house. The pheasants can lay eggs and can be eaten for a long time."

Brother Wu licked his mouth. It seemed that he had eaten a lot before.

When they were carrying hundreds of kilograms of meat back, they happened to run into the Orion team that had just come out of Lu Yiming's house.

"Yi Ming is back. Thank you for your help yesterday. I won't thank you for your kindness. We won't say too many superficial words. If you have anything to do in the future, just come to us." "As long

as it's not something outrageous, we'll take care of it for you. ."

"Hahahaha, yes, yes, yes."

A few people chatted for a while, and when they saw Mother Lu and Pei Xing coming out, they stopped staying and left together.

"They just sent two live hens and a few baskets of eggs, and I put them in the house."

Mother Lu saw Lu Yiming coming back, and told him in detail what the other party had sent, and asked him if he had any Something is wrong.

"It's okay. If you give them some of their kindness, these people will feel better."

"Okay, then I'll accept it. I originally wanted to give some back. We are all from the same village, so there is no need to be so polite. ."

She took a small half of the meat from Lu Yiming's hand and said happily: "So much meat?"

In the past, during the Chinese New Year, they would buy fresh pork before winter, marinate and store it, and eat it after winter, but this year they saved the money. overhead.

But when she thought that this was the result of her son being in danger, she didn't seem so happy. She couldn't help but warned: "It's best not to go to Xiaoyin Mountain. Let's take care of the fields at home, and we won't have to worry about food and clothing. It is necessary to take risks."

Lu Yiming nodded in agreement and talked about exchanging wild boar for money: "There are still one hundred and twenty kilograms of meat left, and I sold the rest to Butcher Li. This is one tael of silver, mother, please keep it. "

Seeing Lu's mother's hand touch the two pieces of silver, she didn't know what she thought of, and she retracted her outstretched hand.

She thought about it for a while before speaking: "Yiming, you are married now. We don't like the practices of wealthy families. We don't pay much attention to it. Just keep the money you earn properly." After hearing

these words, Lu Yiming felt relieved. Surprised, he inherited the memory of his original body and learned that in this dynasty, there were still many elders who were in charge of the household, especially the children of farmers. Filial piety was the first priority, and handing over money was also a way of fulfilling filial piety. There were few families where the younger generation was in charge of the money. have.

He didn't worry too much. Since Mother Lu refused to accept it, he was not polite. After all, he had no savings and it was inconvenient to do anything.

"Let's get some of this meat for dinner at noon, and some for making bacon or bacon."

It's better to come early than to come by chance. The rice has been washed in the kitchen, but the meal hasn't started yet, and the fresh meat is just right. Do it.

"Okay, let's make the simplest boiled pork slices."

Sichuan cuisine, this place actually has this dish. Doesn't the south eat sweet and salty food but not spicy food?

Lu Yiming was really surprised, but he could also eat spicy food, so he didn't raise any objection and just watched from the sidelines.

Take a small piece of meat and slice it for later use, sprinkle with cooking wine, salt and soy sauce, and let it sit for a quarter of an hour. Lu Yiming watched Lu Mu's making process and realized that it was indeed boiled meat slices.

Taking advantage of the time gap, she poured rice and water into the bottom of the pot, beat another egg and sprinkled some salt on it, then made a steamed egg.

After doing this, he put the meat slices into the water, placed the bowl of meat and steamed eggs on the steaming rack, and closed the pot lid. ?

Lu Yiming looked a little dumbfounded. Did he not understand? Is this how to cook meat in water? What about peppers? Where did the hot pepper go?

He saw that there was no objection on the face of Pei Xing, who was doing the cooking. He understood that this was really the way to cook it, and it was worthy of being boiled and sliced ​​meat.

Looking at Mother Lu who had already sat on the stove and was about to light the fire, he hesitated and didn't know what to say.

Okay, he is ignorant.

It was another dull meal. After the meal was over, Lu's mother and Pei Xing were in the kitchen worrying about how to handle the meat. After boiling the meat slices, Lu Yiming decided to stay and watch their production process, otherwise he would not be able to eat it this winter. The mouth may become angry.

Pei Xing is handling the bacon. His hands and feet are skillful and he should have handled it no less than three or five times.

Take the meat, wash off the blood, remove the scraps from the meat, and after trimming, score the meat at regular intervals to speed up the marinating process.

After doing this, he began to rub salt on the surface of each rib. After rubbing it back and forth evenly, he stuffed an appropriate amount of salt into each incision and put it in the cellar to refrigerate, and then apply a layer of salt on it tomorrow.

There is no problem with bacon. Lu Mu's bacon is updated at the same time and has more craftsmanship than bacon.

First cut the flowers into strips, add peppercorns, cinnamon, bay leaves and star anise, pour in salt and soy sauce, mix evenly with your hands, and store it in the cellar to dry naturally after being flavored.

Pei Xing came out of the cellar, staggered and almost fell down.

Although this foot is fine for walking on flat ground, it is still not good for carrying heavy objects into a cellar. The weight of the whole body is concentrated on one foot, which will put pressure on the injured foot. If he hadn't been quick-sighted and quick-handed, he could pull the ladder rod hard. , maybe one step will miss the mark and the butt will bloom.

Lu Yiming, who was watching Lu's mother marinating bacon, looked at him in disbelief. He pursed his lips and walked towards him. Without saying a word, he gently picked him up and carried him to the pool.

"Husband, let me down."

Pei Xing begged softly in his ear. He looked over Lu Yiming's shoulder shyly in the direction of Mother Lu, who smiled back at him.

Seeing that her husband ignored him, he lightly hit his back, as if it was tickling, and he didn't feel anything at all.

"Auntie is watching from the side."

Lu Yiming actually followed his gaze and turned around, nodding towards Mother Lu. The latter looked away and continued what he was doing.

"Mom, I won't watch anymore." Her tone was a bit proud.

Pei Xing didn't dare to look up at Mother Lu anymore. After washing his hands quickly, he lay on Lu Yiming's shoulder like a broken pot and pretended to be dead.

Carrying the person back to the room, he took out a jar of something from his clothes, took the other person's injured hand, and explained while wiping it: "I asked for some ointment from Brother Wu and put it on you. It will heal quickly."

The ointment was applied to the wound. It was cool and the burning pain in the wound was relieved a lot.

"Excuse me, husband."

"You... forget it."

The word husband came out of the boy's mouth. He was still not used to hearing it. He originally wanted the man to change his words, but as soon as he said the first word, he saw this... They are all his little things, and it seems difficult to speak.

I didn't mention it earlier, but if I mention it now, the other party will probably have random thoughts. Besides, it's not easy to explain to Lu's father and Lu's mother. Thinking about the series of troubles that will arise in the future, he decided not to talk about it for the time being.

"You keep this tael of silver," seeing Pei Xing open his mouth to refuse, he spoke first, "I spend money lavishly, so you can keep it with peace of mind."

Pei Xing hesitated for a while, then reached out to take it. This time he saw it clearly. Okay, the little guy is really a little money-crazy, the kind that makes money shine like gold when he sees it.

Needless to say, I feel a sense of accomplishment. Is this what it feels like to be a wife slave?

He shook his head, he was obviously his younger brother.

He still had half a tael of silver on him, and he planned to go to town to purchase some winter supplies after the autumn harvest was over.

Not to mention that he couldn't wear these clothes, he felt displeased just by seeing Pei Xing's few thin clothes.

No wonder this man's hands and feet were cold. He was wearing so little, so it's no wonder he wasn't cold. But he didn't intend to say it out loud. Once he discussed it with the other party, the matter would be ruined.

He finally figured it out. It was useless to remind him in person, he had to force him.

For example, now, why don't you take off your socks and apply some ointment? It's not like you haven't touched them before.
