Chapter 63 Li Er Dan
Shen Sisi didn't care about them and went to cook dinner by herself. The pig's internal organs had all been eaten, so Shen Sisi took out the bones she had put in the well yesterday. These bones were different from those sold at the butcher's shop, after all, they were cut with Zhong Gen's knife, and each bone still had meat attached to it. She rinsed off the excess salt water with well water, then put them in a large pot to simmer the salty bone soup over low heat. Adding a handful of small scallions was enough, no other seasonings were needed, the aroma wafting out was truly exceptional...
Let the eldest son bake a pancake and cook porridge, she put the well-prepared sauce into the large pot, washed the pickled pig's head, trotters, and tail from yesterday and put them in, boiled over high heat, then simmered slowly over low heat. Soon, all kinds of fragrances wafted from the Zhong family kitchen, making people's appetites open wide, and the three brothers quickly forgot their worries, focusing solely on staring at the kitchen, looking forward to dinner...
It can be said that for them, the happiest moment of every day is always mealtime. Because recently, Tuni has been giving them surprises, with different dishes every day, but all equally delicious.
Especially this braised flavor is simply awesome.
She carefully waited for the dish to be fully flavored, while starting to prepare the dipping sauce. She deliberately made it spicy, so that the braised flavor would blend with it perfectly, making it an absolutely delicious taste that could make people drool.
Lian Zhonggen and He Axiu couldn't help but frequently glance towards the kitchen.
At this time, the Zhong family finally not only brought in dogs but also brought in Li Er Dan, a second-rate son from the village. This Li Er Dan is not entirely bad, because he doesn't steal or rob, he just does things like picking a cucumber from one household and taking an eggplant from another. His favorite thing to do is to wander around the village, occasionally during holidays, he might even steal an egg or two, or take a chicken. It's impossible to say that he's good, because all he does are things that make people in the village dislike him.
Everyone sees him hiding far away, afraid that he will stare at his own things. Although the things are not big or expensive, the villagers have been living a hard life, and now they are being taken away like this. Who can be happy? They have argued with him before, but this person is thick-skinned and refuses to admit it. No one has ever caught him in the act, except once when he was found holding eggs in his arms, but he claimed that he had picked them up. The villagers couldn't do anything about it, as the things weren't worth much, and reporting it to the authorities would be useless.
So, the villagers saw him and felt helpless. As soon as he entered the Zhong's house, he narrowed his eyes and said: "......Hey, it's time for dinner? What did you cook, it smells so good! Hey, Gen Sheng, is your family getting rich or what? I heard that your family has been eating meat every day recently. If there's any way to make a fortune, you have to take care of your brother."
Zhong Gensheng's scalp was numb when he saw this, although the second-rate guy was a bit despicable, but his favorite thing to do was to steal things. At this time, he wished that both eyes could stare at him, and their family had not lost much in the past, mainly because they were too poor, and the second-rate guy couldn't take away anything valuable, so he hadn't come often. Now that he has entered, he is looking around left and right, his eyes are rolling around, and he is staring very intently, carefully checking to make sure he doesn't miss anything valuable. When he smelled the fragrance, he kept glancing at the kitchen, making Zhong Gensheng and his wife feel a bit numb on their scalps.
