Chapter 39: 2Where did Uncle take my mom?

   The next day, after breakfast, Ge Xiaozhu went to the polder again.

  Xu Tongdao also started to prepare the bait needed to put shrimp stocks. His plan today is similar to yesterday. He will put shrimp stocks in the morning, and give them to his brother and sister in the afternoon. He will go to the county town to buy lamb and come back for experiments.

   Going to the county town for two consecutive days is indeed a bit troublesome, but although it rains frequently this season, the temperature is not low. There is no refrigerator in his house. I bought more mutton at a time, and the whole night would probably go bad.

   However, he still intends to buy a jin for a little bit more today.

  Buy more lamb, he plans to do one more experiment.

   Anyway, now he doesn't need to go to Weishang to replace his mother at night. He does two experiments on skewers in one night. There is no time.

   "Yuzhu, how much did the river prawns sell yesterday?"

   When preparing bait, Xu Tongdao suddenly remembered to ask about it.

Sister Ge Yuzhu was changing shoes. Hearing this, she raised her hand and patted her forehead, "Oh, I forgot to give you the money I sold yesterday, brother, wait! I'll give it to you right away, haha, did you sell it yesterday? Less money! A total of 52, brother, or you should stop selling mutton skewers, just put the shrimp skewers every day! Putting the shrimp skewers to make money..."

  52...

  Xu Tongdao nodded slightly in his heart, but at the suggestion of his sister, he shook his head, "Putting the shrimp stretcher is not a long-term solution, the skewers are still for sale!"

   "Why? Why is it not a long-term solution?" Ge Yuzhu was puzzled.

   Xu Tonglu also squinted over.

Xu Tongdao smiled faintly, "Believe it or not, there is no technical content in putting shrimp stretchers. In a few days, people in our village or even a few nearby villages will learn from us and do this? Although Xihe is big and long enough, the shrimps inside are too. There are many people involved. After a long period of time, there will be no more river prawns every day. Moreover, once there are too many people who put shrimp stretchers in Xihe, the boss who contracted Xihe may not be allowed in that river. I put a shrimp in it, understand?"

   After listening to Xu Tongdao's explanation, Xu Tonglu looked back.

   Ge Yuzhu stayed in a daze and sighed, "Oh! What a pity, I understand, brother."

   After changing the shoes, Ge Yuzhu immediately sent the money for selling shrimp yesterday to Xu Tongdao. As soon as Xu Tongdao put the money into his pocket here, Xu Tonglin’s voice came from outside the door.

   "I'm coming! Trails, you still go to put the shrimp stretcher today?"

"Ok."

  Xu Tongdao glanced out the door and responded.

   Is Xu Tonglin thinking about it?

Xu Tonglin strode into the gate, without Xu Tongdao asking, he sighed: "Oh! I told my parents about what you told me last night, but they still disagree, but they bother me, yes. Go! Trails, are you still grilling lamb skewers these past two days? Or, next time you grill them, give me some skewers back for them to taste? When they taste your grilled lamb skewers, maybe they will. I can change my mind, what do you think of this idea?"

   "What's the matter, elder brother?" Ge Yuzhu questioned, who didn't know the truth.

   Xu Tonglu also looked over.

Xu Tongdao ignored his sister and nodded to Xu Tonglin, "Okay! I will do the experiment today. You will come early, and you can take it back when it's hot and give them a taste. It won't taste good when it's cold. "

Xu Tonglin's eyes lit up, "Okay! Great, but my dad may not be at home by the time, and he will be in the flood prevention fair, but it doesn't matter. Let me see if I can convince my mother first. Hey, I'll give them this time. Let's break them one by one! Hehe."

   defeated each one? My parents?

  Xu Tongdao wanted to laugh a little.

   Ge Yuzhu's curiosity was completely aroused, "Brother, Brother Lin, what are you talking about? What are you trying to convince your mother?"

   Xu Tonglin chuckled, "Your elder brother told me to go to the stall selling lamb skewers with him. My parents disagree. I'm not trying to persuade them! Hehe."

   "Huh? What about this?" Ge Yuzhu was surprised.

   Xu Tonglu silently retracted his gaze again.

  ...

   This afternoon, Xu Tongdao, according to plan, handed all the shrimp stretches to his younger brother, sister, and Xu Tonglin. He went to the county by boat again by himself.

   The ferry ticket is not expensive, and it only costs two yuan for a round trip.

   This time he went to the county to buy mutton. After careful comparison, he found that it was also mutton, but the smell of different mutton was indeed different.

   After some selection, he bought a leg of lamb back.

After    went home, he immediately began to prepare skewers.

   The bones and skins of the lamb legs that I bought were removed, and the lamb was divided into two as raw materials for the two trials tonight.

   Half of the lamb, he plans to soak it in water for about an hour, and the other half is going to soak for two hours.

   The time of soaking is different, the degree of blood in the lamb is naturally different.

   He wanted to soak in water to remove part of the lamb taint.

   But I am afraid that if the soaking time is long, the umami taste of roasted lamb will be much worse.

   So he wanted to see the difference between the mutton soaked for one hour and two hours, in terms of the degree of mutton and richness.

  He is busy here. Not long after, the younger brother and younger sister came back from selling river prawns. While the younger sister hurryed to pick up rice and cook, prepare dinner, she curiously watched the eldest brother busy there.

   Xu Tonglu stood aside silently and watched.

   When he sees that he needs help, he will help.

   After a while, Xu Tonglin, who had already had dinner at home, also came happily, followed to help, and asked a few curiously from time to time.

   When Xu Tongdao ignited the charcoal fire of the tandoor, his mother Ge Xiaozhu also returned from the wei.

   When I got home, I saw my eldest son preparing roast lamb again. She obviously felt a little pain.

   "Xiaodao, it is not easy for you to earn some money every day, but it is a pity to buy so much lamb every day to roast it! How many times do you have to do this experiment?"

   Xu Tongdao heard the words, UU reading www. uukanshu.com smiled, "Mom! Sharpening the knife and not chopping wood by mistake, since I want to do this business, of course I have to be prepared, and I will do it if I am sure. Don’t feel bad about the money, I will double my income in the future. Yes! Don't worry!"

   Ge Xiaozhu opened her mouth and wanted to persuade her again, but she was already stupid. Seeing Xu Tongdao finished speaking, she had already turned around and entered the kitchen. When she reached her mouth, she swallowed again.

   After dinner, Xu Tongdao started today's first skewers experiment.

   Holding a handful of skewers in both left and right hands, they grilled them patiently on the fire, and it didn't take long for the aroma of lamb to diffuse.

   After he sprinkled chili powder and cumin powder on the skewers, the aroma of the skewers became more overflowing. Before the skewers in his hand were cooked, the neighbors attracted more than yesterday.

   Ge Xiaotian brought his Huahua and came here with a smile.

   Even Cao Xin was attracted again.

   More than a dozen people surrounded Xu Tongdao, talking and laughing, waiting for the skewers in Xu Tongdao's hands, several and a half older children were already drooling.

   Just then, a young woman's mocking voice suddenly came from outside the crowd.

"Yo! Second aunt, is your house so lively today? What are so many people doing around here? Ah? Huh! Trails, are you... roasting lamb skewers? Your dad took my mom away, and you still have Are you interested in eating lamb skewers here? Second aunt! I'm here to tell you something! Tell me honestly, where did the **** of my second uncle take my mother?"

   As soon as the woman's voice rang, the crowd quickly stepped away, revealing a young woman with a melon-faced face and a young man with a long face at the back door.

   The ironic remark just now came out of the young woman's mouth. At this time, her eyebrows were erect and her face was full of anger.
