The onlookers understood, âSo, only those who are going to buy the meat can try it?â
âOf course.â Su Qingyue nodded, âItâs so delicious, and itâs meat. If everyone tries it without buying, I wonât have enough for everyone to taste. You all know how expensive meat is.â
âTrue.â Everyone nodded in agreement, all honest people, not treating it like cheap vegetables and those not planning to buy also said they wouldnât try it.
A middle-aged man said, âIâm going to buy two jin of meat anyway, let me try itâ¦â
Another woman said, âIâm also going grocery shopping, this meat smells so good, let me try itâ¦â
âI also want to tryâ¦â
Su took out prepared chopsticks, picked up a tree leaf, and placed a piece of braised pork intestine onto the leaf, then handed it to one person. She then calmly handed it out in the same manner to each person who wanted to taste.
âItâs so delicious!â The middle-aged man who tasted it instantly brightened his eyes, âItâs perfect as a wine dish!â
âIâve never had such delicious meat beforeâ¦â Another person said, âWhat kind of meat is this?â
âFirst-class Ten Fragrance Meat.â Su Qingyue replied.
The woman looked closely, âWhy does it look like a pigâs large intestineâ¦â
Even if the braised pork intestines were well-cooked, they were still easy to recognize. The ancient people werenât stupid, no matter how nice the name was, it was what it was. Su Qingyue didnât deny it, âIt is a pigâs large intestine. This dish is also called braised pigâs large intestine.â
âWhat!â The middle-aged man was surprised, âItâs offal? Pig offal has such a strong smell! Can it be this delicious?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIsnât it delicious when this little wife made it?â Another person said, âWhen I buy it and cook it myself, itâs so hard to make it taste goodâ¦â
The middle-aged man asked, âOffal is offal, but itâs indeed more delicious than meat. How much per jin?â
Su Qingyue said, âTwenty cents per jin.â
âAre you robbing us?â The woman who had a taste shouted, âLittle wife, doesnât everyone know that pig offal in the Vegetable Market is only one cent per jin? Youâre selling it for twenty cents, thatâs extortionate!â
âThatâs right, itâs too expensive, no matter how delicious, I wonât buy itâ¦â
âToo expensive, too expensiveâ¦â
Everyone shook their heads.
Seeing this, Xiao Qingheâs handsome pale face also turned red with embarrassment. Selling it for twenty cents while itâs only worth one cent per jin, his wife was indeed robbing them.
Seeing everyone saying so, Su Qingyue wasnât angry, âThatâs the thing, I used a secret family recipe to process the pigâs large intestine. Of course, I know you all have bought vegetables and are aware of the real prices. But what Iâm cooking isnât just pigâs large intestine. Think about it, when you guys buy pigâs large intestine and cook it at home, the smell is so strong and stinky that even if it was given to you for free, you wouldnât want to eat it, right?â
âYes, pig offal is too stinkyâ¦â The old granny in a wheelchair said, âNo matter how much I wash it, it still smells badâ¦â
âNo matter how I cook it, the smell remainsâ¦â The woman also said, then asked curiously, âLittle wife, how did you cook this pig offal?â
Su Qingyue said, âThatâs the reason for the high price. The secret family recipe requires several expensive ingredients, and it costs quite a bit of silver to buy them. Whatâs expensive isnât the pig offal, but the ingredients used to remove its smell. Thatâs why itâs twenty cents per jin. Today, Iâll sell it cheaper, eighteen cents per jin, who wants to buy it?â
Everyone kept calling it expensive.
The middle-aged man said, âThis delicious pig offal, Iâm tired of eating meat, give me three jin!â
