Pig Killer

Nowadays, noodles are rolled into strips by hand, or simply pinched into lumps with the hands.

"Noodles?" The raccoon looked at her hopefully with his eyes shining, "Is it delicious again?"

"Yes!" Shen Hui'e nodded and smiled, "I'll make it for you when your uncle Liu makes the rolling pin."

"Great!" said the cat slave, jumping up and down happily.

"Mother, we don't have much flour at home," Da Chong reminded her, "If you keep eating like this, it will be gone sooner or later."

"Mix the two, and use more corn flour." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her starry eyes, and then said, "No more talking, no more talking. Let's get to work."

Shen Hui'e washed the dishes and the big iron pot and put them back into the house.

"I'm going to the countryside to collect pigs. What about you?" Shen Hui'e said to them with gentle eyes.

"Let's lay the cobblestones!" Cheng Donglai said, rolling up his sleeves. "We have plenty of energy now."

"What about you?" Shen Hui'e's eyes fell on the Dachong brother and sister.

"Let's stay and help." The big bug looked at her with his dark eyes and said.

"Okay then! I'm leaving, you guys take good care of the house." Shen Hui'e said to them with her black pupils.

"Auntie, don't worry about going to the countryside!" Cheng Donglai looked at her with his dark eyes and assured her, "We will take good care of the family."

"Then I'll leave." Shen Hui'e took the money and hemp rope and pushed the wheelbarrow to the countryside.

Huang Er stayed to help them look after the house because there was gold hidden in the house!

It was dark, and Shen Hui'e and the other two washed up early and lay down on the bed.

"Mother, mother, why do we have to give away the broth? We can sell it for money." The big insect in the dark said slowly, full of resentment, "I always feel that we are at a disadvantage. The broth is delicious."

"We're not selling cheap at all." Shen Hui'e said with a smile, "Buyers are never as smart as sellers." She smiled and added, "Your father didn't sell pork as fast as we do."

"That's true." said the big tiger with a smile.

"Every day you collect money, kid. How many copper coins are there? Don't you count them?" Shen Hui'e said with a smile on her lips.

"I counted it, it's much more than just selling pork." The big tiger said loudly.

"That's it." Shen Hui'e said with a smile, "Be more generous and don't be so fussy about those little gains."

"Oh!" the big tiger responded obediently.

"We mainly sell pork! The more we sell, the better." Shen Hui'e said with a smile, "Go to sleep! Tomorrow I'll show you what noodles are."

The next day, Liu Ding hurriedly brought two rolling pins, one large and one small.

Shen Hui'e demonstrated how to use the rolling pin.

"Wow..." the onlookers exclaimed.

"These noodles are much easier to make than soup noodles."

"Yes!"

"I say, noodle shop owner, if you make noodles this way, you will definitely have a lot of customers."

"Golden noodles, what a good sign!"

"I wish everyone good luck and prosperity!" said the noodle shop owner with a smile on his face and very cleverly.

"I'll lend you some good words."

"Have you learned it?" Shen Hui'e looked at the noodle shop owner with gentle eyes.

"I've learned it. I can do it in no time." The noodle shop owner said cheerfully, then hesitantly asked, "Do you just want to eat these noodles?"

"Of course not." Shen Hui'e looked at the crowd with sparkling eyes and said, "Noodles cooked with broth are very good." Then she added, "If we don't have broth, don't we have noodles with soy sauce?"

"This sauce is no longer good. It's all gone. Summer hasn't come yet, so there's no way to make sauce."

"Then just add some chopped green onions, a little sesame oil, soy sauce and salt." Shen Hui'e looked at them with bright eyes and said, "Now we have wild vegetables, blanch them in hot water and put them in, add some green, it looks really good." Smiling, she added, "If you have a rich variety of dishes at home, you can cook them any way you want and mix them with noodles."

"Mom, mom, how do you eat leeks and eggs?" Li Nu pulled his mother's sleeve and said obediently.

Shen Hui'e smiled slightly when she heard this. The girl looked at the raccoon lovingly and said, "Fried leeks and eggs." She urged, "Go! Bring four eggs."

"Okay!" Li Nu turned around and went home excitedly. When he came out, he was holding a basket with four eggs in it.

"Next, let's make fried eggs with leeks." Shen Hui'e cracked the eggs into a stoneware bowl and stirred them thoroughly with chopsticks.

Chop a handful of chives into small pieces and set aside!

Shen Hui'e took the refined lard, scooped some from the clay pot with a wooden spoon and put it into the hot iron pot, and it melted immediately.

When the oil is hot, pour the eggs into the pan.

The crackling sound rang in everyone's ears.

This sound is very familiar to them as they often barbecue.

The rich fragrance floats between the nostrils.

"smell good!"

"It smells good!"

"Golden, golden, this color is so beautiful."

Shen Hui'e poured the chives into the eggs, added a pinch of salt, and then stir-fried them with chopsticks. When they were cooked, she served them in a stoneware bowl. "The chives and eggs are ready." She looked at them with a smile and said, "You can stir-fry any vegetables with eggs."

Shen Hui'e placed her chopsticks on the edge of the bowl and said, "Please enjoy it!"

"How embarrassing."

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her gentle eyes and said, "When we were sowing, thanks to everyone for helping us." She said deliberately, "It's just a small amount. If you pick it up too late, you won't be able to eat it."

"Let me try it!"

You use one chopstick and I use one hand, and in no time we finish all the fried eggs with leeks.

"Hey! What did you eat? How did it taste?"

"I just took a bite and swallowed it before I could taste the flavor."

"Hehe..." Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed when she heard this. This was like Zhu Bajie eating the ginseng fruit!

"It's delicious. The more you chew the egg, the more delicious it becomes."

"Boiled eggs make the yolk choke you, but scrambled eggs are so delicious!"

"If you scramble eggs like this, I can eat eight or ten. But two or three boiled eggs won't do."

"Does it have to be made with lard?" someone asked.

"You can also use soybean oil." Shen Hui'e looked at them with clear eyes and said, "Nowadays, there are many wild vegetables to be dug. They will taste better if fried with oil."

"I can't afford it. I'm reluctant to give it up."

"It's okay occasionally, but who can eat like this?"

"Um... Butcher, are you going to sell this lard?"

"Sorry, I won't sell it." Shen Hui'e looked at them apologetically and said, "Give some to the Huang family, the Shen family, and my brother-in-law's family. It's not enough!"

“You really don’t want to sell it!”

"Not for sale!" Shen Hui'e said to them with gentle eyes.

"I'm saving it for myself!"

"If you want lard, this fat can be used to make lard." Shen Hui'e said to them with her clear and bright eyes.
