The escape system takes me to dig for treasures

Chapter 52: Crying about the kid next door

With a large plate of meat, everyone took it for granted that they would reach for the pork belly with their chopsticks first, as it would not be too greasy or too thin.

"It's delicious." Jiang Baishu praised and quickly took two mouthfuls of rice into his mouth.

After eating four or five pieces of meat, I noticed that Gracilaria's chopsticks reached out to the pork belly less often, and more often to pick up rice noodles and pork liver.

After getting over his greed, Jiang Baishu also picked up a piece of rice sausage as long as two knuckles. The entrance was a bit tough and chewy, but as he chewed, a fragrant paste came out of the rice sausage. The rice noodles become more fragrant the more you chew them, but they are not too tough.

"Sister, this is delicious too!"

Jiang Baishu smiled and flattered Jiang Li, "What I cook is delicious, what I like to eat is delicious, so you are right to follow my sister!"

Seeing Jiang Baishu eating so deliciously, although they thought he was being flattered, Jiang Songshu and Tieniu still tasted it.

"Hey, it's really delicious!"

Then each of them tasted the pig liver and pig ears.

"These pig ears are delicious!" Jiang Songshu prefers to eat pig ears.

Tieniu likes pork liver and rice sausage.

The Jiang family's food is delicious, but the neighbors are having a hard time.

Ever since they smelled the aroma wafting from next door, the children at home started clamoring for meat.

Jiang Li and the others were getting excited about eating and were almost half full when there was a sudden knock on the door.

Seeing that they were still eating, Gracilaria had almost finished eating, so she put down the bowl and chopsticks and went to open the door.

At the door, a woman with a simple bun and gray linen clothes greeted Jiang Li with a smile, "Miss Jiang, I'm sorry to bother you. My family lives in the courtyard to the left of your house. You just moved here and gave us a gift." Mushroom, I wonder if you still remember?"

"Remember, Aunt Chen is here?"

Jiang Li asked puzzledly.

Chen Xiao'e then sheepishly took out a bowl and asked, "Do you sell this braised pork? I'm so sorry. Your braised pork is so fragrant. The kids at home have been making trouble all morning. Do you think you can sell it?" Shall we order?”

Jiang Li laughed and let Chen Xiao'e in, "You come in first."

Jiang Li took Chen Xiao'e in. Although the doors of the houses on the left and right were closed tightly, they were also paying attention to the place. Seeing Chen Xiao'e go in, they also went home to get bowls.

We are all neighbors, so there is no reason to give it to Chen Xiao'e's family, not to theirs.

Jiang Li took Chen Xiao'e to the kitchen. The meat was stewed in the pot. Those who wanted to eat had already been taken out and cut. Those who didn't want to eat were cut in a hurry.

So at this time, Jiang Li fished out a piece of meat, cut it into strips as long as Chen Xiao'e's hand, cut them into slices, and then scooped out a spoonful of marinade and poured it on.

"Auntie, take it back and eat it. Our family makes a lot of it."

Jiang Li put the bowl into Chen Xiao'e's hand.

"Oh, it's so kind of me, but such a lot of meat is not cheap."

Chen Xiao'e really didn't mean to ask for anything in vain, so she put the bowl back on the stove and took out a bunch of money from her body.

"Can I pay you the price of a pound of raw meat?"

Jiang Li cut half a catty of braised pork, and Chen Xiao'e gave it the price of one catty of raw meat, which was pretty much the same.

After all, pork will definitely lose some moisture during the braised process, but labor costs, firewood costs, and marinade costs will also be added.

Jiang Li refused to take it, and Chen Xiao'e refused to take it back. "If you don't take mine, and you don't charge when other neighbors come to your door later, how much money will you lose today? If you just don't take mine, you will take them again." Yes, I’m afraid they will have a lot to say.”

Under Chen Xiao'e's persuasion, Jiang Li accepted.

After sending Chen Xiao'e out, other families came to the door with bowls.

Chen Xiao'e paid twice the price of raw meat, "I didn't ask others for it. They are not serious business people. They get it themselves. If it tastes good, just ask them for it. I will just ask for raw meat." I asked Ah Li to buy it at double the price. I just tried it and it tastes great. It’s really worth the price.”

The neighbors were a little evasive after hearing this. Raw pork costs 20 cents per catty, which means Jiang's braised pork costs 40 cents per catty.

Hiss, who is a good person who eats such expensive meat?

Seeing Chen Xiao'e holding a bowl with the wind blowing under her feet, she couldn't wait to go home for dinner.

Many people still want to eat something new. It’s not like they have never bought braised pork from outside, but in their impression, the braised pork bought on the street is not so fragrant.

So, several people carried bowls and knocked on Jiang's door again.

"A few aunties must have heard that my meat is relatively expensive, so you can try it first."

When Jiang Li opened the door again, she had already filled a small bowl with chopped braised meat and braised water.

"Is this pig intestine? Is it also sold for 40 cents per catty?"

Some neighbors were dissatisfied.

"It costs 30 cents per catty to buy water, and 40 cents per catty to buy pork." Jiang Lei said calmly.

After hearing this, the neighbors felt a little calmer.

"Then give me half a catty of pork. I see that Mrs. Lin just had some marinated meat in the bowl. Isn't that free of charge? If not, give me some."

After an aunt tasted a piece, she couldn't wait to hand over the bowl and handed it to Jiang Li over the people in front.

"I'm here first. Give me half a catty of braised pork and half a catty of braised ears."

"I want half a pound of marinated water, a little of everything."

The Jiang family's courtyard is the kind of courtyard that once you enter, Jiang Songshu and the others can see the grand scene at the door while sitting in the main room having dinner.

They all stopped eating and drinking.

what's the situation? Isn't this pork braised from home?

Ah Li didn’t even say he wanted to sell it!

My sister didn’t even say she wanted to sell it!

I didn't know what was happening in my heart, but my reaction was pretty quick and I hurried to help.

Jiang Li took the bowl and took it to the kitchen to cut the meat as everyone asked. Jiang Baishu was responsible for ladling the soup and pouring it on, Tieniu was responsible for bringing it out, and Jiang Songshu was collecting money at the door.

The Jiang family suddenly became busy.

Forty cents!

Twenty cents!

Thirty-five cents!

Twenty cents!

Thirty cents!

After selling six or seven houses and getting the brine, everyone left with satisfaction.

Until the people at the door of the house dispersed, Jiang Li and the others walked out of the tense atmosphere and sat back at the dinner table, still a little bit out of their minds.

The family members, who knows, were eating and eating when suddenly someone came to grab their food.

"By the way, didn't I say that I was going to send some to grandpa and parents? Do you want to keep them first?"

Jiang Songshu suddenly remembered.

Jiang Li scratched her head and went to the kitchen to take a look. It was really not there. There was only some marinade left in the pot.

"It's okay, I'll cook some more in the afternoon."

As Jiang Li said, she was going to clean up the remaining pork that was marinated but not braised together.

Jiang Songshu packed up the dishes and went to wash them, and asked Jiang Baishu and Tieniu to count how many copper coins they had.

Because Jiang Baishu couldn't count, he was asked to put ten in a pile.

"1,,,2"

"1,,,,2"
