After dying early, I traveled to ancient times and became a boy

The wedding date is set for the eighth day of next month, and they can still prepare a lot of things before that.

Li Mei'er had no awareness of being a bride-to-be. She would get up every morning and rush to do Feng Jingheng's work, such as boiling water, feeding chickens and ducks, and preparing breakfast.

Early in the morning, Xie Hui brought his son to the door. When he saw that the door of Feng's house was open, he walked in directly.

When the strange man came in, Li Mei'er was startled at first, and then she remembered to ask them what they were doing there.

Xie Zhiyan shouted, "Xiaobai, I'm here to find Xiaobai."

Li Mei'er frowned and said, "Xiaobai is still sleeping. You will wake them up if you do this."

Xie Zhiyan covered his mouth and muttered, "Then we'll wait for them here."

But Ye Xunqing had already been woken up by them. He opened the window and said with his eyes closed: "You two, are you going to let me live? Don't you know how important sleeping in is to others?"

Xie Hui wanted to laugh when he saw him like this, "Young man, don't always think about sleeping in, okay? I don't even sleep in, do you still want to sleep in?"

Ye Xunqing said speechlessly: "Brother, if you are mentally ill, go to the hospital. You haven't been a high school student for a long time. Have you forgotten the pain at six in the morning?"

Xie Hui broke out in a cold sweat when he heard the word "high school student". He had a really miserable three years in high school.

"Okay, brother, don't sleep anymore." Xie Hui said, "My father has something to tell you. He wants you to cook a meal for the villagers to thank them for taking care of them."

Ye Xunqing was about to explode, "No, there's no time when we can't say this? Do we have to say it so early in the morning?"

Xie Hui raised his eyebrows and said, "I have something to do later, so I came early to finish talking to you so that I can go do my work early."

Ye Xunqing I want to know what's going on with him.

Xie replied, “Oh, I just want to stroll around here.”

Ye Xunqing swung the pen holder on the table and hit him, "Fuck, you've really had enough."

Feng Jingheng came in carrying a bamboo basket. Seeing that Xie Hui had disturbed his wife's sleep, he felt a little angry.

"Don't you guys sleep in the morning?" Feng Jingheng said with a cold face.

Xie Hui smiled apologetically and said, "Okay, okay, I won't disturb your wife's sleep. I just wanted to tell you that Dad said he would ask your wife to cook a meal and then treat the whole village."

Feng Jingheng glanced at him and said coldly, "Aqing will be exhausted to death."

Xie Hui added, "Don't worry about that. I'll hire a few chefs. I'll let you take charge and be the head chef, and others will do the rest. Don't save money for me. I have plenty of it."

"Ha." Ye Xunqing smiled. "I'll give you a whole pound of lobster when the time comes. Don't think it's too expensive."

Xie Hui said proudly, "There is nothing in the world that I can't afford to eat."

Ye Xunqing couldn't deny it. "Okay, I agree to this. Also, thank you for the ham. Invite Uncle Xie to have a ham feast with us tonight. I will be the chef myself."

Xie Hui gave a thumbs up and said, "I knew this ham would be the best for you."

Only Xie Hui went to play in the wild alone, and Xie Zhiyan had to raise the little tiger with his dear Xiaobai.

This little tiger is a carefree one. Even after changing to a new environment, he didn't seem to be very scared. He enjoyed eating everything and would chew on the grass as long as Xiaobai fed him.

Ye Xunqing's sweet dream was disturbed, so he had no mood to sleep anymore. He also wanted to eat ham, so he thought of getting up and dealing with the ham first.

Feng Jingheng looked at the dark ham covered with mold and felt that it could kill people.

"A Qing, do you really want to eat this?" Feng Jingheng was still a little worried.

Ye Xunqing said, "Don't worry about that. My family used to eat ham, both domestic and foreign. We've eaten it all. As long as you remove the mold stains, it'll be fine."

Ham needs to be roasted over fire to burn off the mold stains on it, which also increases the aroma of the ham.

In fact, ham is quite wasteful because the thick outer layer of the ham has to be cut off, which was rare in ancient times when meat was very precious.

Unless they are wealthy, ordinary people would not eat meat in this way.

Obviously, the Annan Palace is not an ordinary family.

Ye Xunqing asked Feng Jingheng to find some mulberry wood, light it and use it to roast the ham. While roasting, the oil from the ham sizzled out, emitting a rich aroma.

Wood is not as convenient to use as a flamethrower because the wood will not burn completely and will condense into a layer of ash on the surface of the ham.

A ham weighs dozens of kilograms, and Ye Xunqing can't lift it, so the task of roasting the ham is given to Feng Jingheng.

As the ham slowly roasted and became fragrant, Feng Jingheng's doubts became less severe. It seemed that this thing was really edible.

The roasted ham needs to be cleaned. If it were in modern times, Ye Xunqing would use steel wool to scrape it.

But there were no steel wool in ancient times, so people could only use knives and bamboo brushes to clean, which was very difficult and took a long time.

After the pig skin part of the ham was cleaned, Ye Xunqing pressed the ham with his hand and he knew it was a good ham.

The right knife for cutting needs to be very sharp. Ye Xunqing didn't have such a knife, so he borrowed a butcher knife from his uncle.

The family watched him dismantle the ham, and large pieces of meat fell off.

"Oh, all the meat has been peeled off." Ye Hongxia felt it was a great pity.

Ye Xunqing said, "Mother, you can't eat this moldy meat. If you eat it, you'll end up in your coffin."

Of course Ye Hongxia knew about it, but she just felt it was a pity that so much was wasted.

Ye Xunqing said: "It's okay, it's not ours anyway, it was given to us by someone else."

He cut the ham according to the bones, otherwise it would be difficult to cut, and he was not a butcher. But he would definitely not want to let others cut it.

If it is not cut properly, the shape of the ham will be destroyed. If others are reluctant to cut off the moldy part, then you will all end up lying on the board after eating it.

The fire claws above are used to stew. After washing and brushing them clean, Ye Xunqing cut off the fire claws and put them in the pot, then picked some dried soybeans, planning to make a stewed pig's feet with soybeans.

There was also a bone in the middle, and he scraped off the meat, leaving only the bone to stew.

There are parts of ham that can be eaten raw, but Ye Xunqing doesn't like eating it raw, so he picked the leanest part and planned to fry it slightly to eat with steamed buns.

There are many ways to eat ham. You can cut it and steam it, slice it and make soup, stir-fry it with chili peppers, or stew it.

Since the ham was cut, Ye Xunqing wanted to use it up, so he started working in the afternoon and made a table full of ham dishes.

The ham was very salty, so he made some syrup to help with both the greasiness and the saltiness.
