Two hundred and sixty-eight Buying meat

At this time, the people in the front glanced back and saw the long queue. They felt that even if they bought less, they could still afford it, unlike those at the back who were just wasting their efforts.

Thinking like this, my heart suddenly felt balanced.

He honestly took out the five taels of meat tickets and handed them to the butcher.

Not everyone among them felt that five taels was too little and there was not enough food at all. They tried to show their identity, say whose family they were related to, and what their son did, but it was of no use at all.

Buy five taels, no one will give that face today.

When it was Zhang Yu's turn, he looked at the bones next to him and asked, "Brother, do you want to sell those bones?"

"Sell it, but if you want bones, you can only buy three ounces of meat."

Aunt Zhao pushed Zhang Yu and told him to buy meat. After all, the bones at this time are not like those of later generations.

At this time, the bones are shaved so smooth that there is basically no flesh at all.

"Isn't my brother injured? I want to buy more bones and make some bone soup for him to replenish his health." Zhang Yu said these words not only to Aunt Zhao, but also to the pig butcher.

After listening to his words, Aunt Zhao no longer stopped her.

Just like that, Zhang Yu left happily with two big bones and three ounces of meat.

Did the people following him think that he couldn't make a living? Why not buy big bones? Wouldn't it be better to buy meat?

In order to buy these two big bones, you have to buy two ounces less meat. The two ounces of meat are marinated with salt and cut into a piece for each cooking time. It can be used for a long time.

The bones are cleanly shaved and there is no minced meat at all. What's the point of buying it?

But some people think Zhang Yu is smart. After all, the bones are much heavier than two ounces of meat. After buying them, you can make a big pot of bone soup and use it to stew. The taste is also amazing.

Zhang Yu had no idea that just two bones would attract so many people's attention.

He just happily carried the basket and went back.

After returning home, before opening the basket again, I put two more pork bones in it.

He also came to the house and showed off to Zhao Feng: "Brother, what do you think I bought?"

"What did you buy? It can't be meat, right?" Zhao Feng said jokingly.

But it aroused Zhang Yu's surprise, "Brother, how did you know that I bought meat?"

"Why did you really buy meat?" If it weren't for the wounds on his body, Zhao Feng would have jumped up.

"It's not a holiday, it's already afternoon, where did you buy the meat?"

"Aunt Zhao just came over to inform me that meat was available. I quickly went to queue and bought three taels of meat and some bones." Zhang Yu opened the lid of the basket and put it up for Zhao Feng.

look.

He didn't add any more meat to it. After all, anyone who buys meat knows that a person can only buy five taels at most, but he chose to ask for bones, so he only bought three taels.

"I'll make a bone soup for you, add some radish, and drink two bowls of it hot. It will not only supplement your nutrition, but also taste good."

Zhang Yu's words made Zhao Feng swallow his saliva. He couldn't help it. He hadn't had the smell of meat for a long time.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Yu saw Zhao Feng standing up again and wandering around.

"Brother, your wound is not fully healed yet. Be more honest and don't touch another wound like you did a few days ago."

"I know, I know, I'm not telling you, Xiaoyu, at such a young age, why are you so verbose like an old lady?" Zhao Feng pretended to be indifferent, and waved his hand to indicate something to Zhang Yu.

No children.

"If you think I'm verbose, please don't move." After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he picked up the bones and packed them up at the door.

He tried a few times with a vegetable cutting knife. Not only did he not break the bones, but he also cracked two holes in the knife.

Seeing the gap in the knife, Zhang Yu's scalp felt numb. Zhao Feng, who ran over to watch Zhang Yu pick up the bones, looked at the gap in the knife and smiled happily.

He gloated and said: "Yes, Xiaoyu, you did a great job, just to let my mother know that you gave her favorite knife two holes. I wonder what she will do?"

Seeing him smile like this, Zhang Yu was no longer so nervous.

Isn't it just a knife? No big deal, no big deal, he will get two better ones for his sister-in-law.

This should erase his mistake.

It should, it should be possible, right?

At this time, Zhang Yu didn't have any confidence at all.

He knew how much his sister-in-law liked this knife.

But no matter how uneasy I felt, there was no trace of timidity on my face when I faced the big brother who was gloating about his misfortune.

When I passed Zhao Feng, I didn't even say anything to him because his wounds were not healed yet.

But Bai glared at him and raised the bone in his hand, "If you can, don't drink my bone soup."

As soon as these words came out, the proud expression on Zhao Feng's face suddenly disappeared.

Replaced with flattery.

The flattering words are as if they are free of money, one sentence after another, each sentence is more disgusting than the other.

Zhang Yu finally said that he couldn't stand it any longer, so he unconsciously rubbed his arms, which were all hairy, and interrupted his words.

After looking at the bones that had been chopped several times and there was no crack at all, Zhang Yu simply carried the big bones to the stone pool where the water was collected, placed a small eucalyptus board, picked up the ax for chopping firewood, and three times

Divide five by two and crack it into half.

Then rinse it directly under the faucet, put it into a large pot, put only a few slices of ginger, add more than half the pot of water, and start boiling directly.

This pot of bone soup was cooked until my sister-in-law and the others got off work.

As soon as he opened the lid, a strong aroma of bone soup mixed with white mist hit his nostrils, and the glutton in Zhang Yu's stomach was instantly aroused.

Just smelling it without eating it can turn people off and make people want to eat it.

After a long period of boiling, the bones are almost boiled, and only one-third of the water is left.

The soup was creamy white. Zhang Yu didn't put too much seasoning in it, just sprinkled a little salt.

After stirring it twice, he felt that it had become salty, so he couldn't wait to pick up the spoon, scoop some out, put it into the bowl, and took a bite. He felt that the saltiness was just right, and the aftertaste was endless.

It happened that the whole family was off work, so Zhang Yu brought the bone soup to the table.

"The bone soup is ready. Come over and eat."

As he spoke, he took out the steamed buns that had been heated on top of the bone soup.

The whole family was already greedy after smelling the bone soup.

I'm just holding on there to save my own face.

But in order to drink bone soup as quickly as possible, they washed their hands early and waited at the door.

At this time, when they heard Zhang Yu calling for dinner, they reacted quickly. Before Zhang Yu's steamed buns were brought out, they were seated around the dining table.
