I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life

The villagers mixed the noodles and the noodle soup evenly, picked up a piece of noodle soup with chopsticks and put it into their mouths, and were immediately amazed. The noodle soup was delicious, and it was the first time for them to taste such delicious noodle soup. The villagers here cook eggplant in a simple way, just boil it in plain water and add some salt. This way of eating not only has a poor taste, but also is not easy to fill the stomach, so the villagers do not often eat eggplant.

Xu Congyi's eggplant stew is made by using a lot of fat to make lard, and then stir-frying the eggplant cubes. The eggplant cubes fully absorb the fat of the lard, and naturally taste more delicious. In modern times, people pursue healthy eating and advocate cooking with less oil, so many "oil-free" eggplant recipes have emerged. However, in this era, when even rice is not enough, oil and water are good.

This eggplant and meat stew was well received, especially after Old Man Xu told everyone that the eggplant and meat stew was made by his granddaughter, the praises kept coming one after another.

"It smells so good, I didn't know eggplant could smell so good!"

"It's amazing! This is the first time in my forty years of life that I've eaten noodles and noodle soup that tastes so good!"

“That’s right, it’s so delicious!”

The villagers who said these words were not exaggerating. The noodles were of uniform thickness, smooth and chewy, and paired with delicious diced eggplant and meat stew. The various ingredients blended together and the flavors were just right. With every bite, you could feel the noodles wrapped in stew dancing in your mouth, releasing the aroma of wheat, eggplant and meat, which made people linger. Seeing that everyone was not paying attention to eating noodles and kept praising her, Xu Congyi felt embarrassed and quickly walked to the side where the fried pig offal was placed to greet everyone.

"Everyone can try the pork offal that my mother fried. Because the portion is not large, if you want to eat it, just scoop a spoonful yourself. I won't serve it to you one by one!"

In this era, not many people would eat pig offal. On the one hand, pork was expensive, so people generally did not buy it. If there were strong laborers in the family, they could go up the mountain to catch pheasants or rabbits, or go down to the river to catch fish, shrimps, clams, etc. to satisfy their hunger. If they had some money to buy meat, they would buy some fat and take it home to make oil. On the other hand, pig offal was too smelly, so the butchers who sold meat did not want it and generally threw it away. For example, the Xu family would throw away all the offal when they killed a wild boar.

Seeing that no one stood up to scoop out the pig offal, Hunter Xu smiled naively and said that his family had eaten it once and it definitely had no smell and was delicious. Then he called the villager with whom he had the best relationship to come and try it. This villager was Daniu's father and Aunt Li's husband, and Xu Congyi should call him Uncle Li.

Da Niu's father stood up immediately. Actually, he wanted to try it when he heard what Xu Congyi said, but since no one stood up just now, he felt a little embarrassed and did not stand up. Now that his friend called him, he was naturally happy.

He held the bowl, and Xu Congyi filled it with a spoonful of pork heart, liver, lung, stomach and intestines, along with green onions, ginger and chives. He could smell the aroma before he put it in his mouth. He picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, and it tasted even better than the eggplant and meat stew.

"Delicious! So delicious!" Daddy added another handful of pig stomach and pig intestines, which were soft and tasty but still chewy. "This is pig intestines, and it doesn't smell bad at all. On the contrary, it tastes very good!"

Da Niu's father returned to his seat with the bowl and continued eating, and shouted to others to get some. Hearing his words, the other villagers also stood up one after another. Because the quantity Xu Congyi had mentioned was not a large amount, everyone was very careful when serving, and each person only took a spoonful. After everyone had served themselves, there was still some left, which was just enough for the three aunts who came to help and the Shen family's grandparents and grandchildren to taste.

The villagers who ate the pork offal all widened their eyes at the same time. Was this the smelly offal that they hated so much? It was too delicious! Because the pig offal was braised in advance, the aroma of meat mixed with the aroma of seasoning, plus the accompaniment of green onion, ginger and chives, it was delicious when fried in small pieces, perfectly suppressing the fishy smell of internal organs. It was so delicious that the villagers ate a mouthful of fried pork offal with a big mouthful of eggplant and meat stewed noodles. They didn't care to talk for a while, and all they could hear was the sound of slurping noodles.

Grandpa Shen hasn't said a word since he took the first bite of Xu's noodles. It's not that he was dissatisfied, but the noodles were so delicious that he didn't know what to say. He has been selling noodles for most of his life, but he has never made such delicious noodles. Although his meat noodles business is also good and he has many old customers who often patronize it, it is nothing compared to the noodles made by the Xu family.

Shen Xiao grew up in a wealthy family, and his father paid particular attention to food, so the family's private chefs were all skilled chefs recruited from all over the place. Although unexpected changes occurred and his family was imprisoned and exiled, and they were assassinated on the way, he luckily escaped and was adopted by Grandpa Shen, but his memory was still there. He thought in his heart that this noodle alone was better than the noodle making skills of all the chefs in the mansion.

The three aunts also ate with great relish. Although the noodles were rolled by them, they felt that the deliciousness of the noodles had nothing to do with them. The eggplant and meat stew was just as delicious even with black-faced steamed buns.

In comparison, the Xu family was much calmer. After all, Xu Congyi had given them many surprises. However, they did not deny that the noodles were delicious. In fact, when Xu Congyi bought the eggplants, the Xu family was a little worried. Although eggplants were very cheap and these bags did not cost much, not many people ate eggplants after all, and the boiled eggplants were not delicious. However, the Xu family did not worry for long and did not stop Xu Congyi because Xu Congyi had given them too many surprises. Today was another surprise. The eggplants were made into noodle soup according to Xu Congyi's method, and it was the most delicious noodle soup they had ever eaten.

Xu Congyi was sitting on the right of Shen Xiao. Shen Xiao felt that this little girl Xu Congyi looked different every time he saw her. When he first met her, she was still skinny and he thought she was only eight or nine years old. But now the little girl has become plump. When she wanted to help him move tables and chairs before, he also found that the little girl had grown a lot taller. When he saw her coming out in new clothes just now, her whole temperament was different, she looked delicate and cute. While eating noodles, Shen Xiao couldn't help but take a few more glances at the little girl who was also eating noodles with a smile on her face.
