The Sweet Little Fulang

Lu Gu followed him out, and saw the good boy wagging his tail crazily outside the door. He subconsciously looked to the back of the village and saw no sign of Shen Xuanqing, thinking that he had already entered the house.

"Woo." Good boy whimpered and kept rubbing against his leg.

I haven't seen him for five days, and Lu Gu also misses it a lot. He rubbed the dog's head and pinched his ears. After the boy was quiet, he entered the house and took the key and lock. After locking the door of the new house, he hurried home.

Before entering the door, Da Hui and Da Hei ran out to meet him. The mountain road was too far, and even the dogs were tired and panting. After entering the door, they lay on the ground and stuck their tongues out for breath. Shen Yan poured water for them.

"I'm back." Lu Gu couldn't help but let out a small smile.

"Well." Shen Xuanqing, who was washing his hands, smiled brightly. He glanced at the good boy who was drinking water, and said helplessly, "I didn't see you when I came back, so I ran out to find you."

"I'll feed Dabai over there." Lu Gu said, his eyes moved to the black-hoofed sheep tied in the courtyard, or Shen Xuanqing had the ability, and the sheep was caught alive.

Da Bai also ran over, constantly rubbing against Shen Xuanqing's legs.

"It's Duke Tou." Lu Gu said when he saw the long horns on the sheep's head.

"Yes." Shen Xuanqing wrung out the cloth and wiped his face, then said, "It's not Futian, the people in the town have paid attention to eating Fuyang for the past two years, and the mutton is very easy to sell. I think that the ewes are smaller and lighter. , but it is not as stinky as the uncastrated ram, and the meat is more tender, but I ran into this one while chasing in the mountains.

He threw the towel into the basin and rubbed it a few times before wringing it dry and placing it on the wooden stand. He smiled and said, "This time it will be brought to the town for slaughter, and the price must be high."

The ram that the family raised earlier is actually bigger than this one, and it must have slaughtered more meat, but that one has been raised well, so it is better to keep it as a breeding sheep. Down the goat.

Lu Gu glanced at the black-hoofed sheep, but he didn't forget his business. He walked to the basin rack to wash his hands and asked, "What do you want to eat, I'll make it for you."

"Boil rice wine, stir-fry jerky with spring vegetables, and heat two or three steamed buns." Shen Xuanqing replied.

"Okay, you drink water first." Lu Gu wiped his hands and rolled up his sleeves before heading into the kitchen to get busy.

The black-hoofed sheep was just caught, and he threw some grass for it and didn't eat a single bite. Seeing this, Shen Yan brought an old pot and poured water for it. No more pipes, he would take it to the town for slaughter early tomorrow morning. No need to pull to the new house, save yourself from being frightened.

In the afternoon, when the sky can be cooler, Ji Qiuyue sat down and shook the fan, chatting and laughing with Shen Xuanqing.

Just now, Dabai didn't eat a few bites, so he didn't go to Xinzhaizi for a while. Lu Gu also fed it when he fed the other three dogs, so as not to fight with Dahei for food.

After a night's rest, the next morning, when the sky was just dawn, there was still some blindness in front of me, and the door to the second bedroom of the Shen family opened.

Except for Ji Qiuyue, the other five people went to the town. Wei Lanxiang went to Zhou Xiangjun last night for this matter, and asked her to bring Chen Xinlian and Shen Yu over to accompany Ji Qiuyue today, and help make a meal at noon meal.

The grass that the cattle and sheep eat was prepared yesterday afternoon, and it is enough to let Shen Yuping help feed it.

People helped, and when they came back from town, they naturally had to share some mutton to eat.

I went out so early to catch up with the morning market. There are so many people selling meat. Shen Xuanqing was pulling the sheep, and Shen Yaoqing was pulling the cart. The cart was equipped with various knives such as pig-killing knives and bone-cutting knives, as well as meat cutting boards and bloodletting. A wooden tub for viscera.

It was dark on the road, and there was no dog. Good boy and Da Hui stayed at home to take care of Ji Qiuyue, but there were two young strong men with knives in the car, so they were absolutely not afraid of walking on the road.

When they got to the door of the third bedroom of the Shen family, they stopped for a while, and Wei Lanxiang knocked on the door to wake Zhou Xiangjun, and told her to go home after dawn.

The wheel of the car turned again, and it creaked all the way to Fenggu Town, and it was dawn.

They came early. After paying the market fee, they found a spacious place to stop, borrowed a pot of hot water from the breakfast cook, sharpened their knives and slaughtered sheep.

With Shen Yaoqing's help, I can move faster.

Shen Xuanqing was already familiar with bloodletting, skinning and digging out internal organs, and only looked at the size of various prey.

Sheepskin is a good thing to keep out the cold in winter. He doesn't plan to sell it. The price of meat and bones varies slightly depending on the part of the meat. Scorpion bones are only sold for twenty-eight cents per pound.

Mutton has always been sold at a high price, and at the cheapest time it was 80 cents. Last year, he sold it to Butcher Zhao and took away the sheepskin and a leg of lamb. Butcher Zhao also had to give him five taels of silver, which shows the price of the mutton.

Although it was **** when the sheep was killed, some men in the town heard that someone was killing sheep here. For a while, look around.

The black-hoofed sheep was much smaller than the male wild boar before, and it was not so laborious to slaughter.

After everything was sorted out, Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing wiped the blood on his hands dirty, and a man who had watched the whole scene came forward and asked him to chop a piece of mutton shoulder, and then stretched out his hand to gesture on the meat, indicating that he wanted to. It's that piece.

Most of the lamb shoulders are sold with the bones together. It is very good to go back and stew the soup. Shen Xuanqing saw the size of the other side's cut, raised the knife and chopped it, and there was a muffled sound.

At this time, Wei Lanxiang shouted towards the crowd outside the crowd: "Selling mutton, mutton!"

As soon as the business opens, someone will come to hear the news.

For the wealthy people in the town, whether it is to go out to brag with others after eating at home, or to invite people to eat, making a fashionable Fuyang is full of face, this is the food that came from Fucheng. method, and the slaughtered sheep are fresh enough.

Shen Yaoqing was talking nonsense while selling meat, and said aloud: "Futian must eat Fuyang, this is not my nonsense, everyone in the city says that, eating Futian is for physical fitness, and the other is good. Don't look at mutton and meat when it's hot, it's all steamed when it's hot, it's called prosperity, and the days will definitely get better."

Most of the men who came to buy meat had money in their hands. Even if they only bought a pound of meat, it would cost more than 90 wen. Agree.

Those words weren't nonsense from Shen Yaoqing's mouth, they really came from Yuqing Mansion City, and some people in the town had heard of them, so they didn't refute him.

However, both he and Shen Xuanqing were very clear in their hearts, knowing that this must be a nonsense made up by people who sell mutton in Fucheng. There was no such thing as a thriving claim a few years ago. It should be true that eating Fuyang is good.

Mutton is expensive, at least 90 coppers per pound. People have to pay attention when they count the money, so today Wei Lanxiang and Shen Yan are also following.

"Ninety-three, ninety-four, ninety-five, that's enough." The husband who took out the money counted and threw it into the purse. After he counted enough, he took the meat from Lu Gu's hand.

Deboned meat has no bones and is naturally more expensive.

When counting the money, Lu Gu was also whispering in his mouth, and no one was fooled.

Moreover, Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing are both paying attention. There are many people mixed together. There will definitely be opportunistic people who give less money and bully weak women and children. Wei Lanxiang is okay. Talking loudly to people, mainly Lu Gu and Shen Yan, they have to watch closely.

I never thought that this Fuyang was sold very well. It was sold out in less than an hour after killing it. Even the sundries such as the sheep's belly and the heart, liver and intestines were also sold. When the wild boar was killed before, the spicy sausage was fried They've had enough of it and won't stay this time.

Shen Yaoqing packed up the knives, glanced at the front legs in the bamboo basket, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, the second brother has the foresight to chop off a leg for our family first."

"That person just now has a lot of hands, and he has to go. It's good, but I forgot to leave it for your third aunt." Wei Lanxiang was both happy and annoyed.

Shen Xuanqing, the man who bought one front leg, two hind legs, and sheep neck and sheep scorpion, knew him. It was the buying manager who had sold the young deer. Their master heard that there was a sheep to eat, so he sent him out to buy it. If it hadn't come a little late, I'm afraid the whole sheep would have to be taken back.

Last year, Shen Xuanqing had already passed Futian when he hit the sheep. This year is the first time to sell any Futian. He was afraid that the market would be bad, so he went to the market. , I'd better go to those rich households and restaurants first, and sell the whole one to save blood from slaughtering.

"What's the matter, let's cook it in one pot, call the third uncle and three aunts to eat together, and make two good dishes, so we won't treat the third uncle and them badly." Shen Yaoqing said.

Wei Lanxiang could only nod: "That's fine, it's more fun to eat together."

Sheepskin wrapped a front leg and a few bones for the dog. After picking up the things on the scooter, Shen Xuanqing bought a few biscuits and rushed home.

I went early today and came back early. Zhou Xiangjun hadn't cooked lunch yet. Shen Yaoqing simply chopped the front legs into large pieces and simmered them in a pot while they were fresh. Eating mutton is easy to dry out, so Wei Lanxiang and Zhou Xiangjun did it. Two bitter vegetables under fire.

The two of his sister-in-law were chatting and laughing in the kitchen, and the cooking was very neat, so Lu Gu could only sit in front of the stove to add wood and fire, and then start fighting.

Although the mutton is a bit muted, as long as there is meat, the good boy will be able to whimper.

When Shen Xuanqing stepped into the kitchen, Lu Gu just added a handful of firewood to the bottom of the stove.

"The bones for dogs should be fishable. Let's eat them longer, and they will be softer and more fragrant." He lifted the lid of the pot as he spoke, and after the white steam dissipated, he used chopsticks to fish out the four bones.

Lu Gu stood up to help him carry the bowl. Now only the wine and **** pieces are poured into the pot, and the other ingredients have not yet been added.

When the good boy saw the meat and bones being fished out, he ran in anxiously and pulled Lu Gu's pants with his claws.

Lu Gu put the bowl on the chopping board and said subconsciously, "Don't worry, it's hot, let it dry before eating."

Seeing him talking to the good boy, Shen Xuanqing smiled, but he didn't say anything, he just said, "It's too hot here, come in when you add more firewood, take a break, go out and fan the fan for a while"

The stewed mutton, a bowl of wild vegetables, a bowl of bitter vegetables, and a bowl of crunchy mixed cucumbers, Shen Yaoqing put the two tables together, and it would be more spacious for eleven people to sit around.

The mutton and mutton soup is very delicious, no one speaks when eating, and Shen Yuping's cheeks are bulging while chewing the soft and rotten meat, even so, he has not forgotten to smile at his daughter-in-law Chen Xinlian.

Ji Qiuyue also ate a few pieces. She didn't dare to eat more for fear of getting angry. She picked up the refreshing cucumber and ate a few more bites. The egg custard and stir-fried spring vegetables were specially made for her by Wei Lanxiang. A small bowl of broth.
