Chapter 008 A sumptuous dinner, refined salt

When we moved all the things and drove the cows to the cowshed in the backyard and fed them fresh fodder, it was already the end of Shen Shim.

Xiao Wei entered the kitchen, started to burn the fire, and was ready to make dinner.

Wei Yun asked Ding Jian to take out the pair of pigs he bought today.

He pointed out Ding Jian to use wood ash to turn and rub the smelly pig intestine several times. After picking the oil attached to the inside, he marinated it with a little salt from the flour to remove the fishy smell of the large intestine. Soon, a fresh pair came out, saying goodbye to the smelly pig intestine and then released.

Ding Jian is honest and only knows how to do what Wei Yun said, and does not wonder why Wei Yun knows these things.

However, Xiao Wei asked Wei Yun in confusion.

Wei Yuntui said that it was a method I saw from a travel notes, so Xiao Wei did not continue to investigate.

Then, according to the method recorded in the travel notes, he instructed Xiao Wei to stir-fry fatty intestines and stir-fried waist flowers.

Xiao Wei continued to make a pork lung soup, stir-fry an egg, and then served with fragrant white rice, and a hearty dinner was completed.

Iron pot stir-frying has only been around for decades in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and no regional characteristics have been formed yet.

All kinds of tricks are only circulated in the upper class and in big cities. It would be nice to have a delicious hot dish and a steaming dry meal to fill your stomach if you can fill your stomach with it.

There is no place to do so many things to do with money and energy, and it is not those powerful families who cannot pile up their wealth.

"By the way, Brother Yun, why haven't you said you bought so much wine and coarse salt?" After dinner, Xiao Wei suddenly remembered Wei Yun's big deal today and asked.

Wei Yun did not answer directly, but smiled mysteriously and asked, "Second sister, do you have fine gauze at home?"

Xiao Wei nodded, and the commonly used gauze and coarse cloth in the house naturally reserved the warehouse.

"How much do you want, I'll get it for you!"

"No need to do it too much. Second sister cut six pieces of fine gauze, and the length and width of each piece are about half a foot!" Wei Yun thought for a while and said about the approximate size.

As for how to cut the most efficient fabric, let Xiao Wei think about it himself.

Wei Yun said to Ding Jian again: "Brother-in-law, please help me find two pieces of bamboo tubes and a little broken carbon!"

Ding Jian nodded and agreed. As soon as he walked to the door of the main hall, Wei Yun stopped him.

"By the way, brother-in-law, it's enough to have two pieces of bamboo tubes, both sides must be connected!" Ding Jian responded, turned his head and left the main hall.

Charcoal, like cloth and grain, is stored in the warehouse at home, and the bamboo tubes needed by Wei Yun need to be made freshly.

Then Wei Yun ran to the kitchen himself, took two wooden barrels, one of which contained half of the bucket of water, and returned to the main hall with a salt jar.

The crackling sound of Ding Jian chopping bamboos sounded in the yard. After a while, the couple entered the main hall with gauze, bamboo tubes, and broken carbon.

Putting the thing on the table, Xiao Wei asked, "What else do you need? Let's say it all!"

Wei Yun said, "Then please help my second sister tie three layers of cotton cloth to one end of the bamboo tube with a rope, and then pour all the broken carbon into the bamboo tube! By the way, rinse all the broken carbon with water first and clean the toner on it!"

There is some toner produced when the charcoal is broken. To be on the safe side, it is better to wash it with water.

Xiao Wei nodded and was about to take action, but Ding Jian snatched the bowl of broken carbon, looked at her and smiled silly, saying, "Let me do it, don't dirty your hands! You tie the gauze first!"

Wei Yun did not roll his eyes or speak, but he felt a little whispered in his heart, what happened to pour the broken carbon into a gauze? He didn't touch the broken carbon, so how could he dirty his hands?

This is blatant show of love and feeding dog food!

However, Wei Yun didn't dare to say this, otherwise these two guys with thinner skin than paper would be ashamed.

The overall situation is the most important, and the overall situation is the most important. Wei Yun secretly warned himself in his heart, pretending not to see the feelings of the two people.

After half a cup of tea, a simple filtering device is ready.

Wei Yun looked at the couple sitting upright, his eyes falling on him, coughed twice, and said seriously: "The next time is the time to witness the miracle. No matter what I do, I hope you don't interrupt me for the time being. If you have anything to say, I will say together after I finish doing it, how about it, second sister and brother-in-law, can you do it?"

The couple looked at each other and felt a bad feeling in their hearts. But after looking at Wei Yun with a serious face, they nodded one after another: "Can you do it!"

Wei Yun, who received the two of them, directly picked up the salt jar with both hands and placed it on top of the wooden barrel filled with water. He directly poured half of the jar of coarse salt into the wooden barrel.

Seeing most of the can of coarse salt melting into the water quickly, Xiao Wei's brows frowned into Chuanzi, and his hands grabbed the hem of his clothes under the table, pinching them tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands burst out.

His face turned pale and blue, but when he thought of his previous promise to Wei Yun, he couldn't speak, so he could only get angry in his heart and looked at Wei Yun angrily, his eyes filled with chills.

I thought to myself that it seemed that I was too doting on this only brother on weekdays. He was so lawless that he was so squandered his family's things.

The most of the can of coarse salt is at least two pounds, but it costs sixty or seventy cents! It was just lost.

The more I think about it, the more angry I become.

Ding Jian was also very shocked, widened his eyes and watched Wei Yun stirring continuously with a spoon until all the salt in the bowl was melted into the water, and then he gave up.

After glanced at Xiao Wei, who was blushing, Ding Jian subconsciously swallowed his saliva, thinking in his heart that when his wife takes action later, he must hold back and not persuade him, otherwise this brother-in-law will be really going to be in a mess.

Wei Yunke didn't think so much, and pointed to another empty wooden barrel and said to Ding Jian: "Brother-in-law, hold the bamboo barrel on this wooden barrel, and the other end tied with the cotton cloth facing down!"

Then he picked up another bucket of salt water, stood up, aimed at the bamboo tube, and began to tilt bit by bit, watching the salt water fall into the bamboo tube, filtered by charcoal, then three layers of gauze, and finally fell into the wooden barrel below.

After filtering, a layer of brown stain has accumulated on the white gauze under the bamboo tube. The salt water in the wooden barrel below is obviously much clearer than the turbidity of the first barrel, but there should still be some impurities.

Wei Yun filtered it again with another bamboo tube. This time the salt water was clearer, and there were only a few impurities left on the gauze.

Looking at the clear salt water, Wei Yun nodded, and suddenly looked up and saw the little Wei family frowning and staring at him.

He asked tentatively: "Second sister, if you have nothing to do, why don't you go to the stove and help me light the fire?"

Xiao Wei shook his hand and groaned, but did not answer the conversation.

Ding Jian hurriedly said, "I'll go to burn the fire, I'll go to burn the fire!" After speaking, he ran to the kitchen.

Wei Yun carried the bucket of clear salt water and followed Ding Jian into the kitchen, leaving only Xiao Wei alone sitting in the main hall, feeling sulky.

Taking off the wooden lid, Wei Yun did not pour the salt water directly in, but scooped some clean water first, washed the pot carefully, then poured the salt water in and covered the lid!

This is the case. Ding Jian, who was squatting in front of the stove, suddenly asked, "Brother Yun, should you want a big fire or a small fire!"

Wei Yun replied: "Brother-in-law, just put it on the high heat until the water in the pot is dried and the salt is precipitated!"

"Okay, I understand! If you just boil the water, then leave it to me. You can sit and rest in the main hall!"

"That's fine, then after the water boils later, remember to stir it from time to time!"

"Finish! Don't worry, go back and sit!"

Wei Yun was not polite to Ding Jian. This brother-in-law is a real person, honest and straightforward, obsessed with the truth, and a little stubborn.

But Wei Yun was still very satisfied.

When he returned to the main hall, Xiao Wei's face was still ashen. When he watched Wei Yun come in, his eyes like a knife never left Wei Yun.

Wei Yun felt a little worried for no reason, so he hurriedly walked to Xiao Wei's side, pulled her sleeve, and said coquettishly: "Second sister, don't be angry!"

"Hmph!" The little Wei family glanced at Wei Yun, slapped his hand on the table with a bang, and looked at Wei Yun coldly.

Seeing that the situation was wrong and the temperature in the air dropped a little better, Wei Yun quickly explained: "Second sister, I didn't waste the salt from my family. When my brother-in-law comes out of the kitchen later, you will know why I did this!"

Hearing Wei Yun's explanation, Xiao Wei's frown still did not untie, but his cold eyes finally warmed up a little.

Looking at Wei Yun, he sighed and said, "Brother Yun, it's not that my second sister wants to lose her temper with you, but you know the situation at home. Just by providing you with school, you've almost emptied your home. If you allow you to squander it like this, our Wei family will probably collapse!

You are the only male member of the Wei family. You will inherit the incense of Wei family in the future. No matter what you want to do in the future, you must think twice before acting. Never act recklessly!”

Wei Yun nodded quickly and said, "Second sister, I have recorded it all. I will definitely take a careful consideration in the future and will never worry you and your brother-in-law."

Xiao Wei reached out and patted Wei Yun's shoulder, nodded, and said, "By the way, why are you back alone? What is your brother-in-law doing in the kitchen?"

Wei Yun said: "My brother-in-law is burning the fire. He wants to burn all the salt water I made just now and precipitate the salt inside!"

Xiao Wei said in surprise: "Can this salt be precipitated?"

"Why can't it?" Wei Yun asked back: "If salt can be melted into the water, it can naturally be precipitated. Could it be that the salt can disappear out of thin air!"

Blinking his watery eyes, Wei Yun looked at Xiao Wei's eyes with an expression you didn't know.

Facing Wei Yun's pure gaze, Xiao Wei opened his mouth, and the words reached his throat, but swallowed them again. After a while, he said: "I'll go to the kitchen to see your brother-in-law, sit and rest for a while!"
