Chapter 239 Bone Soup

At 11 o'clock in the morning, Meng Qiuping returned home and saw two large basins of cleaned bones on the stove. She asked the father and daughter, "Is this the pork you bought?"

"Well, we only spent five dollars to buy all the pig bones except the pig head. Although there is not much meat on them, they are still very good for making soup."

"It's quite good, but where's the meat? Where's the meat I asked you to buy today?"

"Ahem... that's what..."

"What, what, just say it if you have something to say."

“We never robbed the villagers.”

"Okay, I get it. Help me get the bones out and make soup."

"it is good."

At about 1 p.m., Meng Qiuping poured the second pot of bones into the pot and said to Chu Anshan, "Wait an hour before putting the radish in. When the radish is cooked, add a large spoonful of salt.

Then, I scooped up the bone soup and put it in Lingling's space."

"it is good."

"Then I'll go to work." After saying this, Meng Qiuping took off her apron and hung it on the wall, then put on a headscarf and went to work.

After Meng Qiuping went to work, Chu Yiling said to Chu Anshan, "Dad, next time the villagers sell pork, we can't buy bones anymore. The three big pots of bone soup we made today will be enough for us to drink for two or three months."

"I think so too, but it's not easy to fight your way through so many old ladies."

"It's okay. We can just use our cash power to buy from the pork seller. I don't think they can digest half a pig."

Chu Anshan's thoughts were instantly opened after hearing Chu Yiling's words, and then he asked Chu Yiling: "Do you know who is the family selling pork today?"

"do not know."

"What a pity. I guess I'll have to wait until next time."

"Then let's wait until next time. Anyway, there are so many people raising pigs in the village, so there must be a lot of people who want to sell pork."

"Well, let's wait until next time. Didn't you get up early today? Go back to the room and take a nap."

Chu Yiling didn't refuse when she heard Chu Anshan's words, because she was indeed a little sleepy now.

So she went straight into her room to take a nap.

"Button, button, button... button, button, button..."

Chu Anshan, who was adding firewood to the stove, heard a knock on the door. He dusted the wood chips off his hands, got up and went to the yard to open the door.

When he opened the door to the yard, he saw Chu Mulin standing at the door of his house. He hurriedly said to Chu Mulin: "The village chief is here, come in and sit down."

After hearing Chu Anshan’s words, Chu Mulin said “OK” and walked into the house.

When he entered the house, he smelled a strong aroma of meat. He knew without thinking that Chu Anshan must be stewing bones.

But he didn't expect that the bones would be so delicious when stewed. It seems that when he gets home, he should ask the old woman at home to ask Anshan's wife how to stew the bones to make them so delicious.

This way, the grandchildren at home can also chew on the bones to satisfy their cravings.

"Uncle, drink some water."

Chu Mulin came back to his senses when he heard Chu Anshan's words. He coughed twice embarrassedly, then reached out to take the water and drank it.

After he finished drinking the water, he said to Chu Anshan: "They have moved up the time to sell the grain."

"How did you know?"

"The third brother told me that he has been keeping an eye on them these past two days."

"Has Brother Yue Zi been discovered by them?"

"No, although Yue Zi's personality is a bit silly, his eavesdropping skills are second to none in the whole village, so don't worry."
