But since it rained, the temperature dropped sharply.
Many people in the village put on sweaters and jackets. The temperature difference between morning and evening was also very big. Xu Miaomiao also put on jackets.
She usually doesn't want to go out for anything, but when the wind blows, it's really a bit cold.
With things like this now, I guess this winter will definitely be even more difficult.
Xu Miaomiao couldn't sit still when she thought about it, so she went to the bakery.
"Everyone, please stop what you are doing. I have something to tell you. You go back and tell your family or the villagers that from today on, my family will collect dry firewood. It costs 50 cents a bundle. You can take any amount.
But it must be dry firewood, wet or semi-dry firewood will not be accepted. Let’s inform each other.”
Wen Xin and Wen Jun both worked in the fields during their free time, but had no time to chop wood.
Her family uses a lot of firewood. If she doesn't stock up on more firewood at this time, she may not be able to eat in the winter.
By the way, we still need to get a few stoves.
Otherwise, she might not be able to get out of bed if she just relied on her body to resist in winter.
This matter must be done as soon as possible. If we continue at this rate, winter will come soon.
The next day, Xu Miaomiao followed him to the market.
First she went to buy a few ovens, and then a lot of charcoal. She planned to go home and try burning them to see if they worked.
If it doesn't work, she will buy it from the system.
After selling these, Xu Miaomiao went to the meat stall and ordered more than 200 kilograms of beef and 20 kilograms of pork.
By the time the meat was moved to the bullock cart, everyone on the cart had become accustomed to it.
Xu Miaomiao has to buy a lot of things every time she goes to the market. It would be strange if she didn't buy anything one day.
As soon as Xu Miaomiao got home, she started processing the beef, which she planned to use to make beef jerky.
The two children don't eat well at school, so they can bring some beef jerky to eat as a snack. Of course, the most important thing is that she has a quick mouth.
While there was no one at home, Xu Miaomiao bought a bag of beef jerky from the system. It was the kind of authentic beef jerky made from pure beef, not the fake beef sold outside.
However, there were several additives in it. Xu Miaomiao was so greedy that she couldn't care less so she tore open the package and ate two.
Well, this is a brand recommended by her former colleague. It is really fragrant and delicious.
It would be better if there were no additives.
Nowadays, many things are inseparable from technology and hard work. This beef has a little added to it, and eating it will definitely be bad for your health.
However, the amount is small, and it doesn’t have a big impact if you don’t eat it regularly.
What Xu Miaomiao wants to do is make beef jerky without technology or hard work!
She opened the cookbook and turned to the page about making beef jerky.
Wash the beef, remove the fascia, and soak it in water for an hour to remove the blood.
Taking advantage of this time, Xu Miaomiao began to prepare lunch.
Let's have beef brisket with tomatoes for lunch. The brisket was given by her boss after she bought so much beef.
Then stir-fried shredded green peppers, potatoes, and braised chicken.
The braised chicken was finally stewed, and Xu Miaomiao began to process the beef.
This process is quite complicated, with so many seasonings and so many steps.
A dozen or so!
Sure enough, foodies who know how to cook must be patient, otherwise they may have given up before they are ready.
I don’t blame the technology and hard work, it’s mainly because it’s too troublesome to make it yourself, and the ingredients added by others are not delicious.
After the family finished eating, Xu Miaomiao was still hard at work making beef jerky in the kitchen.
Heat up oil in a pan, add chili red oil and stir-fry evenly.
Add the beef strips, turn to low heat, add salt, stir-fry until the oil is reduced to 90%, and remove from the pot.
Xu Miaomiao took the beef out of the pot and repeated the action.
It took more than a dozen times to finish processing all the beef.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Miaomiao bought a large oven from the system, cleaned it, plugged it into the socket, and put the beef in the oven.
Fermentation stage, 50 degrees, low temperature drying for three hours.
What? Three hours??
When Xu Miaomiao saw how long it would take, she decisively bought a dozen more ovens and didn't give up until all the beef was put in the ovens.
If this much beef is roasted in one oven, it will not be roasted until midnight!
Xu Miaomiao said she couldn't bear it.
At around four o'clock, Xu Miaomiao came to the kitchen to inspect the beef jerky.
The whole kitchen exudes a strong aroma of beef.
It smells quite successful.
Turn off the oven and unplug it.
Xu Miaomiao poured the beef jerky into clean bags one by one and weighed it. There were more than one hundred kilograms of beef in total. The beef jerky shrunk by half!
I really don’t know how those cheap beef jerky online are made?
The price, not to mention the process, the cost of beef alone is not enough.
There must be something fishy in it!
Xu Miaomiao picked up one and took a bite. Well, it was very spicy and chewy, not inferior to the ones sold in the system mall.
It’s just a bit of a hassle to do once.
Before her sons came back, Xu Miaomiao quickly cleaned the oven and put it in the storage space.
More than a dozen large ovens are stacked together, taking up a lot of space.
Xu Miaomiao looked at the expansion conditions: 80,000 yuan, an increase of ten square meters.
Xu Miaomiao suddenly felt that it was not too crowded, and there were still many places available, so she might as well not be in a hurry to upgrade.
She had managed to save hundreds of thousands of dollars in her pocket, but she hadn't warmed up yet. She didn't want to hand it over to the greedy guy in the system just yet.
Before going to bed at night.
Xu Miaomiao took two bags of beef jerky and handed them to the two of them, "I made these today. You can keep them for lunch, or you can share some with your classmates."
Liu Wenxin and Liu Wenjun immediately came over and looked at Xu Miaomiao with obvious meaning.
Xu Miaomiao went back to the room and got a pack for each of them, "This is the last pack. Don't ask me for more after you finish it. I don't have much left."
Not long after she finished it, the two boys came back.
The two moved a small bench and sat in front of the beef jerky and ate until they were full. They didn't even eat much dinner.
Xu Miaomiao was so angry when she saw that there was a lot of beef jerky missing. It was a snack, not a meal!
She hasn't eaten much yet.
However, Xu Miaomiao still gave some to Li Hongying and Liu Dexing, not much, just to let them have a taste.
In the past few days, many idle people in the village have gone to the mountains to chop firewood.
Xu Miaomiao sat at home collecting firewood, and even Sun Fangfang took Liu Erqiang and her second daughter Liu Xiahua to get firewood.
You can also make a few bucks at the end of the day.
No, Sun Fangfang came here to deliver firewood again.
She poked her head in to take a look, but she didn't dare to come in until she saw Ju Bao.
Since she saw Ju Bao last time, she told the villagers that Xu Miaomiao had a big tiger, but no one in the village believed her.
No matter how much she promised, no one believed her.
But she was furious.
"Sister-in-law, you are living a really happy life every day. You sit at home every day and there are so many people coming to work for you. You don't do anything, and you still have money to spend."
Sun Fangfang's tone was extremely sour. They were both wives, but the other party's husband was dead.
