When Chen Xiuying heard that it was blood sausage, she was also scared. She only knew how to make it, but never touched it because she thought it was dirty.

Zhou Dajiang was at a loss as he wanted to eat blood sausage but didn't know how to make it.

Chen Xiuying said, "That's easy. I'll tell you to do it! And if you want to learn, you can help me."

The butcher was naturally happy about it. If he could learn this, it would be a skill. He could also raise the price when people asked him to slaughter pigs in the future. After all, other butchers would not make blood sausage.

So, Zhou Dajiang made his first distinctive dish since traveling through time, stuffed blood sausage, according to Chen Xiuying's instructions.

He and the butcher boy blocked their noses with cotton. They had to block them because the smell was too intoxicating!

Next, use clean water to rinse out the dirt in the pig intestines, then scrub the inside and outside of the pig intestines with vinegar and salt, and rinse twice more. The pig intestines are considered to be processed.

Because they were going to have lunch at his house, after processing the pig intestines, Zhou Dajiang and the butcher brother moved everything to their own yard.

Then prepare chopped green onion, chopped coriander and chopped fat, put them in a bowl after cutting, and add seasonings such as pepper powder, salt and rapeseed oil.

On the other side, with the help of Zhong Yin and Ye Wei, Chen Xiuying set up a big pot in the yard and stewed pork and pork bones.

After the pork and pork bones were stewed, Chen Xiuying asked Zhou Dajiang to take some of the stewed meat soup and pour it into a bowl of chopped green onions and coriander and stir it. After the soup became warm, she poured in the pig's blood and continued to stir it. Finally, she poured in the beaten egg liquid and stirred it as well.

After everything is mixed, take out the oil strainer, tie one end of the pig intestine, and tie the other end to the oil strainer, then you can stuff the blood sausage.

Zhou Dajiang was clumsy at stuffing blood sausage for the first time in his life. He either made a leak in the pig intestines or the final tying thread got loose, leaving the butcher helping him speechless. Fortunately, after a few failures, he gradually got the hang of it. After Chen Xiuying finished preparing all the dishes, his blood sausage was finally ready.

The rest was left to Chen Xiuying, who didn't take much trouble. She just put the blood sausage into a pot of warm water and cooked it on low heat for about a quarter of an hour.

All right.

It's just, very infuriating.

Chen Xiuying had no idea what was going on in her husband's mind. For lunch, she cooked two bowls of rice. Besides pork elbow, pork belly, and pork spine, she also cooked rabbit stewed with mushrooms, sauerkraut, stir-fried celery with meat, and Chinese cabbage stewed with tofu. Adding the pig's blood sausage, there were a total of eight dishes.

At noon, Zhou Dajiang invited Zhang the head of the village and Zhou Jiushu, Wu Chunsheng from the construction site, several leaders from the factory, as well as his father-in-law and his own family. The restaurant was full, so Chen Xiuying simply set up two more tables in the small study. The women and children went to the small study, and this side was left for the men to eat, drink and chat.

As for drinking, there were only a few elderly people there. The others had to work in the afternoon and didn't drink much. Xue Jin and Zhou Dahai just took a sip just for the sake of courtesy.

Zhou Dahe was even more outrageous. He simply refused to drink. His original words were, "Eat more vegetables, drink less, stay sober, and finish the job quickly—that's the real deal." So, he focused solely on making the meat and blood sausage. The blood sausage, in particular, was so smooth and tender, it was simply delicious. My second brother was also quite capable; there was nothing he couldn't make, including this blood sausage.

The children were the same, one by one they picked up their chopsticks and rushed to the meat and blood sausage.

Only Zhou Sisi drank some sauerkraut soup. Well, it still tasted the same. If some oysters could be added, it would taste even better!

After lunch, the butcher left. Because he had learned a new skill and had eaten someone else's meal, the butcher refused to take any payment.

Zhou Dajiang had no choice but to give two of the remaining blood sausages to the young man and take them away. The young man was so happy that he said he would come to him to buy meat next time.

After seeing off the butcher, Lou Ji and his friends went rabbit hunting. There were only a few rabbits in the mountains yesterday, so the more the merrier. Let's continue catching rabbits today! Zhou Dajiang and Chen Mingyuan had nothing better to do, so they joined in the fun.

Only the women were left at home to clean the house.

After cleaning up, Chen Xiuying cut the remaining blood sausage into pieces and gave them to her elder sister-in-law and younger brother's wife. She also sent a portion to her parents' home. Then she asked the two of them to help her make clothes.

The children were given a holiday by their teacher. It was the New Year and the private schools were closed, so it was time for Old Chen to take a break!

In the afternoon, Zhou Sisi took her younger brothers and sisters to paint in the house or feed rabbits in the old house. From time to time, you could hear their happy and playful voices.

After searching the mountain for a long time, Zhou Dajiang and his companions finally caught a few more rabbits. As the sun set, they happily returned home, bathed in the orange afterglow.

On Chen Xiuying's side, with the help of her sister-in-law and brother's wife, she spent an entire afternoon and finished making the inner clothes.

Just make the steamed cakes and rabbits as gifts in the evening and you’ll be done!

The next day was the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.

After Zhou Dajiang loaded the things prepared by his wife onto the cart, he drove the ox cart to the town.

The first place he went to was Lai Fu Restaurant.

Manager Chen's appointment had already been made, and he would be moving to the Fucheng branch after the New Year. He was currently in the process of handing over the position to his successor. Seeing Zhou Dajiang coming to give him a holiday gift, he couldn't help but feel very excited.

He patted Zhou Dajiang's arm and reminded him repeatedly: "If I were to say who I miss the most in this town, it would naturally be you. When you have time, you must visit the Fucheng branch to see me!" You must think of me when you have the recipe!

Shopkeeper Chen accepted Zhou Dajiang's gift and returned it, loading it directly into his car. Knowing Zhou Dajiang liked his tea, he packed two boxes, a box of the finest fish maw, and a serving of dried scallops. He also had someone bring in two pots of daffodils and two pots of crabapples, which he had ordered since his last visit. Zhou Dajiang's home was nicely decorated, though a bit lacking in flowers. It was Chinese New Year, and a few flowers would have been a nice touch.

Zhou Dajiang was not polite either. All these things from Shopkeeper Chen touched his heart. Especially the tea and flowers, hey, why didn't he think of it.

After receiving the return gift, Zhou Dajiang went straight to Wu Chunsheng's home.

Wu Chunsheng's construction team also had a holiday today. Aunt Wu was very similar to Tian Ersao, a straightforward and efficient person. Although the things Zhou Dajiang sent were not expensive, she really liked them. The little grandson beside her also liked them and would not let go of the little doll Zhou Dajiang gave her.

She also neatly prepared some cakes and fruits and loaded them into Zhou Dajiang's car.

Zhou Dajiang did not stay either, as he had several gifts to deliver to his family. He thanked Aunt Wu, said goodbye to Uncle Wu, and drove the ox cart back home.

At home, Chen Xiuying also prepared four more gifts, and Zhou Dajiang gave them out one by one.

As for Chen Xiuying, Lou Ji took her and Xu Wu to the master's house.

When she arrived, her master was out on a medical visit, leaving only her senior brother, Qian Chuanbai, at home. Originally, Chen Xiuying had wanted her master to examine Xu Wu carefully to see if he was feeling better. With her master away and her senior brother uninformed, they could only take his pulse roughly.

Fortunately, the pulse diagnosis result was good, and Xu Wu finally recovered and no longer needed to take medicine.
