After some effort, the women finally cleaned the cattle offal, and the stench in the building gradually dissipated.

Su Yue drew a blueprint and went to the blacksmith room to find Zhong Tie. The temperature in the blacksmith room was much higher than outside at this time. She couldn't help sweating all over as soon as she got close.

Zhong Tie and his apprentices still had their shirts off, their bodies covered in sweat, and they continued to work hard to forge the iron tools that Su Yue wanted in the high temperature.

Zhong Tie saw that it was Su Yue who came, so he stopped what he was doing and took Su Yue out of the iron forge. "Miss, what's the matter?"

"Uncle Zhong, please make this for me." Su Yue handed the blueprint to Zhong Tie.

Zhong Tie originally thought that Su Yue had given him another difficult problem, but when he took the blueprint and took a look at it, he was immediately relieved. It turned out to be a simple iron rod.

"Girl, when do you want it?"

"If it's not difficult to make, I'll need ten of them in the next two days."

Su Yue always felt that the extreme heat would happen in the next two days. So the iron workshop would have to stop working at that time, otherwise people would probably die of heat in such high temperatures.

Zhong Tie folded up the blueprint and agreed, "This is not difficult. I can give it to you tomorrow morning. I have also made three more crossbows. I only have three left to complete it."

"The bows and crossbows are finished. If you and your apprentices can withstand it, you can continue to make arrows for the crossbows. Don't worry, I will compensate you with high temperature subsidies." Su Yue said.

Zhong Tie looked at Su Yue gratefully and said, "Don't worry, young lady. We will do our best. With this high temperature subsidy, the apprentices will be more motivated to work."

In the evening, the beef carefully cooked by Liu Cui and the ladies was finally ready. The four tables were filled with fragrant beef dishes, attracting everyone to gather around.

The two cow heads were divided into four parts, one for each table. The meat on the cow skull was also cut into pieces, so it was easy to pick up with chopsticks.

The braised beef ribs are bright red in color and the soup is thick. Each rib is covered with tempting sauce, which increases your appetite at first sight.

The white radish stewed with beef bones was crystal clear, with a few green onions floating on the surface of the soup, and the aroma was fragrant. The braised beef tongue was sliced ​​thinly and evenly with a deep color.

Various kinds of beef offal are also cut into slices of even thickness and regular shape, and then arranged in an orderly manner on a white porcelain plate, and there is also a large pot of stewed beef trotters with a fragrant sauce.

Su Yue asked everyone to sit down, then took Rendong to an empty house, took out four jars of good wine from the space and asked Rendong to put one jar on each table to liven up the atmosphere. With wine and meat, life was truly enjoyable.

After Su Yue came back and sat down, Liu Cui came over with three large bowls of beef noodles and placed one bowl on Su Yue's desk.

Su Yue saw that the beef noodles were in clear soup, which had turned milky white, and there were a few green onions dotted on the noodles, which made people's appetite increase greatly.

"Girl, try this. This is the noodles I cooked with beef bone soup that I have been boiling for a long time. It tastes really good."

After saying that, he took the remaining two bowls of noodles to the second floor, presumably for Liu Qiang and Chen Dafeng.

At this time, Liu Xiaomei also followed Liu Cui with a plate of beef platter.

After Liu Cui and Liu Xiaomei went upstairs, everyone downstairs couldn't wait to taste the delicious beef dishes. While eating, everyone kept praising Liu Cui's good cooking skills.

The men picked up their wine bowls and drank from them, enjoying this rare moment of relaxation. The women carefully picked up slices of beef and savored the flavor. The children also ate with their mouths full of oil and happy smiles on their faces.

Su Yue picked up a piece of braised beef tongue and put it into her mouth. The delicate taste and rich aroma made her nod slightly.

She gently picked up a strand of noodles and put it into her mouth. The noodles were smooth and the soup was rich, intertwined with the fragrance of green onions, making her unable to resist eating one mouthful after another.

Seeing Su Yue eating with relish, Nanny Yang was very happy, because Su Yue had not eaten much recently due to the hot summer, and she had obviously lost weight.

The next morning, Zhong Tie delivered ten iron rods to Su Yue as promised.

Su Yue found an empty room with a table and asked Nanny Yang to place six or seven large ice basins there. She also asked Rendong to ask Liu Danan and a few other men to move the cut beef to this room.

She took out five chopping boards and placed them on the table, with two iron bars on each chopping board.

After a while, Liu Danan and a few others came over carrying pots of beef. Looking at the chopping board and iron bars on the table, they were all curious about what Su Yue was going to do.

Liu Danan asked curiously, "Girl, what are you going to do?" Su Yue smiled and said, "Today we are going to make beef balls."

Everyone looked at each other, obviously full of doubts about this new thing called beef balls.

She asked the strongman Ren Dong to demonstrate. Su Yue took a few pieces of cut beef and placed them on the chopping board. Then she asked Ren Dong to pick up two iron rods and start hitting the beef repeatedly.

Honeysuckle did as she was told, and as the iron rod rose and fell, the beef was gradually beaten into meat paste.

Su Yue also put some crushed ice into the meat paste and explained: "This will make the beef more elastic, and the beef balls will be chewy and delicious."

Liu Danan and the other men seemed to understand what was going on, but they felt that it would be right to do as they were told, so they took the beef from the basin, placed it on the chopping board, and started beating it hard with their arms.

For a moment, the room was filled with the sound of iron rods hitting beef. With everyone's continuous efforts, the beef was soon beaten into a fine meat paste.

Su Yue added an appropriate amount of salt and stirred it evenly with her hands. She also asked Nanny Yang to notify Liu Cui to boil water and prepare the meatballs.

"Next, watch me do it." Su Yue took a small ball of meat paste, placed it on the palm of her hand, squeezed it gently, and then squeezed out a round meatball from the base of her palm.

Everyone watched intently and imitated him. Soon, the chopping board was filled with evenly sized beef balls.

After the meatballs were ready, Su Yue took them to the kitchen with the beef balls. At this time, Liu Cui in the kitchen had already boiled the water, and the water in the pot was bubbling.

Su Yue gently put the beef balls into the boiling water. As soon as the beef balls entered the water, they sank, and after a while they slowly floated up again. Everyone gathered around the pot, staring at the beef balls in the pot, looking forward to what they would look like after being cooked.

As time goes by, the beef balls roll in the pot, emitting bursts of tempting aroma.

Su Yue gently stirred the beef balls with a spoon to ensure that they were evenly heated. After a while, the beef balls became more round and full, and the color became a more attractive gray.

"It's ready to be served." Su Yue said.

Liu Cui quickly brought a few large basins, and Rendong scooped the cooked beef balls into the basins, filling three large basins with beef balls.

Su Yue asked everyone to try one, and everyone couldn't wait to pick up a beef ball and put it in their mouths.

The beef balls were very elastic, juicy and delicious. Everyone was amazed and loved the newly made beef balls.
