Stepmother in charge: Making a fortune through farming and raising her children to fight back

In the Yun family yard.

“Hiss… so spicy… so fragrant!”

"Eat slowly, there's still a lot in the pot!"

Yun Zhenzhen spoke somewhat helplessly.

"That's right, we're not competing with you."

Wang Ze was breathing heavily, his face flushed from the spiciness, completely losing the elegant look he had when he first came in.

"It's spicy, no, this is too spicy."

"If you can't handle spicy food, don't force yourself to eat it, or you might hurt your stomach." Yun Jing kindly reminded him.

"Humph, I won't." Wang Ze said angrily, "You guys made delicious food but didn't call me. Luckily I made it myself. I'm going to eat more so you can eat less."

After saying that, he immediately ate two more snails.

Lai Fu on the side was a little embarrassed to watch. This snail is not a rare thing. Why is the young master so obsessed with it? Can he please not say that he is the young master when he goes out in the future?

Yun Zhenzhen brought him a small bowl, and Lai Fu took it somewhat flattered.

Then he ignored Wang Ze and sat on the doorstep, muttering silently.

Yun Jing stopped talking after hearing this. He silently lowered his head and started eating the snail meat. After a while, a small mountain of empty shells piled up beside the bowl.

The sound of slurping snails and inhaling due to the spiciness could be heard continuously on the dining table.

It was the same at the old house. When Old Lady Qin brought the snail meat, she divided it into several equal portions. In a bowl of snails, each person only got seven or eight.

In the past, people would definitely not find snail meat so strange.

But this was brought over from Yun Zhenzhen's home. I don't know when it started, but everyone in the old house reached a consensus that as long as it was sent from there, it would definitely taste good.

There were not many wooden sticks, so the men in the family just sucked them and ate them, one at a time.

"Oh my God, snail meat can actually be so delicious." Qin Shouren exclaimed: "How do you think my sister-in-law cooked this meal? We have never tasted anything like it before."

Qin De started poking at it with a wooden stick, but he felt that wasn't enough, so he just ate it with big mouthfuls like his father: "Third Aunt's cooking is so delicious, it would be great if I could eat it every day."

Erdan also said hurriedly: "That's right!"

"What? Are you dissatisfied with the taste of my cooking?" Jiang silently watched the father and son talking happily from behind, walked over and twisted Qin Shouren's ear.

Qin Shouren stopped eating the snail meat and begged for mercy: "Wrong... wrong, you cook the best!"

"Hmph!" After receiving a satisfactory answer, Jiang let go and walked aside to eat her own snail meat.

But to be honest, my third sister-in-law’s cooking is really amazing, it’s delicious!

Old Lady Qin picked up two snails and put them in her mouth: "Hiss, the meat is fragrant, but it's too spicy!"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but eat two more: "No, no, it's almost killing me with spiciness. I won't eat the rest. You guys eat it."

The next second, she picked up the water jar on the table and took two gulps. Only then did she feel the burning sensation in her stomach ease a lot.

……

As for Master Yan, he was enjoying a small bowl of snails by himself. At first, he thought it was a bit mediocre, so he had the staple food first. After finishing his meal, he picked up the snails with some curiosity.

He picked up a snail with a bored thought, picked it out with a wooden stick gracefully, and the moment he put it into his mouth, he was captured.

In less than a moment, he had eaten a small pile. During the process, he was reluctant to put down the skewer to boil water, so he drank it all with the cold boiled water that had been left overnight.

In the afternoon, hunters from various villages sent over a lot of game and animal offal. Although the offal was free, the hunters were very honest and only picked out the edible ones.

As soon as the food arrived, Aunt Zhao started to light the fire in her own pot, prepare the marinade, and get ready the braised meat for tomorrow.

Yun Zhenzhen looked at the internal organs and pig blood in the bucket. Since it wasn't hot now, they should be able to be kept for two days, and then she could make some pig blood soup.

Then I scooped out a bowl to make steamed pig blood, chopped the green onion, ginger and garlic, added salt and lard, and put an egg in. I stirred it evenly and then steamed it directly in the pot.

She planned to stir-fry various internal organs to cover up the fishy smell to the greatest extent. After washing them, she added rice wine and soy sauce and marinated them for an hour.

You can cut the heart, kidneys, etc. into four pieces, wash away the blood, blanch them in water, then skim off the foam and wash them clean.

Process the rest and put them directly into the braising pot to stew, and wait for Qin Shouren and others to sell them tomorrow.

Add water to another pot and steam the pig blood first. While steaming the pig blood, tear the pig heart into thin strips, add oil and chili seasoning, and mix it into a full pot of red oil pig heart.

Different from the previous braised meat, the offal made in this way is more refreshing and less greasy.

Then make a stir-fried pork liver. Heat the oil in a pan and stir-fry the pork liver over high heat until it changes color and then take it out.

Add seasonings, stir-fry the onion, ginger and garlic until fragrant, then pour the pork liver in again, stir-fry evenly, season and stir-fry a few times before serving.

After thinking about it, she brought in some dried mushrooms, soaked them, and then fried some porcini mushrooms.

Finally, make some stir-fried wild vegetables. Today’s dinner is simple.

"Wash your hands and eat!"

Hearing this, the children who had just finished their work hurriedly took stools to serve the dishes. Looking at the table full of offal, the children's faces were filled with excitement.

Although the internal organs are not valuable, they are still meat after all. Eating meat every day is something that we could never have imagined in the past.

After dinner, the family was about to clean up when they saw Qin Zhan running over in a hurry. He and another man from the village were on patrol tonight and had been hanging around the village.

He ran out of breath and rushed straight into the yard. "Shou... Shouze's family. When we were on patrol, we saw several suspicious people sneaking around the village. We were worried, so we followed them for a while, but we found that they were circling the village and observing..."

After hearing this, Yun Zhenzhen's expression turned cold and said, "Have you notified the village chief?"

"Yes, that fool ran faster than me." Qin Zhan said breathlessly.

When he first discovered the suspicious person, he didn't think of reporting to the village chief at the first time, but told Yun Zhenzhen that so many things had happened in the village recently, and unknowingly, Yun Zhenzhen had become the backbone of everyone's hearts.

Soon, most people in the village knew about this and gathered at the entrance of the village with weapons in their hands.

In the past few years when the world was in bad shape, if you went from the village to the county to do small business, you would encounter robbery if you were unlucky. Later, the imperial court increased its efforts to suppress bandits, and the world became much more peaceful.

There were various official post stations guarding the way, so Qin Li and his companions dared to travel so far to purchase goods.

But this year, there were floods in the south and severe drought in the north, and many villagers were displaced. The homeless refugees gathered together and became thieves who robbed houses.

If a large number of them came to Qinjia Village, the village would probably suffer a massacre.

As they were talking, a group of people were already rushing towards Qinjia Village outside the village entrance.

"Someone's coming! Everyone, grab your weapons!" Yun Zhenzhen shouted to everyone in the village. "Women and children, hide quickly! Men, take out everything you have at home to defend yourself. Any hoe or machete will do..."

At this time, the surrounding villagers all looked timid. Those bandits must have killed people before, so how could they dare to confront them head-on?

If you are not careful at that time, your life will be lost.
