Chapter 7 Eating hot pot
"Okay then, how much do you want?"
"Fifty. ”
"Okay, you give me five yuan, and I'll let my daughter-in-law catch it for you. ”
"I said, what is the difference between you and giving it to me. He smiled wryly.
"Comrade Chen, what did you say about this, it's this price, I don't believe you asked them. The branch secretary pointed to a group of people in the courtyard.
"That's right, chicks are sold for a dime. The people in the village all nodded.
It's also strange that Hanpi is not familiar with this era, eggs cost three cents a piece, even if you remove some chicks that have not hatched, the cost is only five or six cents, and it is normal to sell a dime, but it takes some effort.
Fifty little chickens, Hanpi gave the village chief five yuan, this is his own family, not the collective, refused the village chief to let him stay for dinner, let everyone help transport things to the side of the road.
Of course, he lied to them that there was a car coming to pull them, so he sent them back, and when there was no one, he put away these things in an instant, waited for a bus, and went back on them.
Of course, buying so many things is not to sell, but to eat by yourself, anyway, it is still when you see it, and it will not be bad at any time.
When I got home, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, there was no one at home, Hanpi made some food by himself, and went out after eating, he had a lot of things to be busy with now, and these things had to be prepared before Xu Dahai moved.
First I went to order two big stoves, spent a hundred yuan, and then there are pots and spoons, the pots and spoons in the restaurant are different from those at home, they all need to be special, these things are ready-made, you can buy them yourself.
He also found a carpenter to make three large round tables and two square tables, which would take a few days, and he was not in a hurry anyway, even if the house was vacated, it would take a few days to clean up, at least the walls would have to be freshly painted.
It is unrealistic to burn briquettes, this is quantitative, you can only burn charcoal, although you can't buy charcoal, but there is a place, that is, the boiler room of the woolen mill, this can be said to the factory director, he is not in vain, spend money to buy.
When it was almost dark, Hanpi hired a flatbed truck to pull a tricycle of things back, pots and pans, knives, cases, stoves, tables and chairs are not yet available, this will be a few days.
The courtyard tricycle can't get in, so it can only be parked at the gate, and then with the help of the tricycle master, these things can be moved in.
"Brother, what are you doing here?"
Sister Chen Xiao had already returned, as well as Xiaoyu and Xiaoqin, seeing that Li Hao had made so many things, she hurriedly ran over and asked.
"Pots and pans. ”
"Pots and pans, don't we have these things in our house?"
"I know, it's used elsewhere, okay, don't talk nonsense, help find a place to put it down. ”
"Put it here. Chen Xiao pointed to a place where he would not bump into it back and forth.
"Okay!"
Put the things away, give the tricycle master a dollar, and after working hard for half an afternoon, I will give a little more.
"Brother, hurry up and cook, we're all hungry. ”
"Ahh
"yes, I don't have the benefit of what you do. ”
This girl, in order to eat the food cooked by Hanpi, is so hungry that Hanpi doesn't know what to say about her, but fortunately it's night, she doesn't have to go to school, and she is not there in the morning and noon, so this girl should do it herself.
"By the way, brother, Xu Dahai said, he will move tomorrow. ”
"Move, move, and tell him that he can't move anything in this yard except walking. ”
"I've already told him. ”
"It's late tonight, let's eat something simple, you go wash the vegetables in the kitchen, and I'll prepare." ”
"Hmm!" Chen Xiao agreed and went, this girl was only diligent when she ate.
What to eat is simple, of course, it is hot pot, when I went to order the stove today, I saw a copper hot pot, and I bought it after grinding for a long time, because people make samples and do not sell them.
After cleaning and cleaning, put charcoal, ignite, Hanpi began to prepare the base, oil, green onions, ginger and garlic, star anise, pepper, there are just some bean paste at home, first pour the oil into it and heat it, and then put the star anise, Sichuan pepper into it and fry it, and then the bean paste, burn out the red oil, put in the green onions, ginger and garlic, and suddenly the fragrance comes to the face.
"It smells so good!"
The whole compound came out of the house, all drawn by the scent.
"Who's doing it, it's so fragrant?"
"Who else can there be, our entire compound, there are Xu Dahai and the Hanpi family who have this condition, Xu Dahai doesn't fire once a year, then there is only the Hanpi family. ”
"That's right, it's just a fool's house, how much oil does this have to put in!"
"You take care of how much people put in it. ”
"Mom, I didn't eat enough. Dahu said to his mother.
"It's not that you're not full, you're not full. After Jiao Huixue's mother-in-law finished speaking to her son, she turned back to Jiao Huixue and said, "You go and see what Hanpi did, let the two girls eat less, and bring some back to the family." ”
Jiao Huixue didn't know how her mother-in-law said it, and asked her granddaughter to eat less and bring it back to her son, what kind of grandmother is this.
However, Jiao Huixue didn't say anything, she still went to the backyard, Li Hao came back late, and everyone else had eaten at this time, but it made him tick out the gluttony, and he felt hungry again.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Chen Xiao came in with two empty hands, probably attracted by the fragrance.
It's just that the fragrance has faded a little at this time, because Li Hao added hot water to it.
"Where's the greens you wash?"
"Oh, I'm done, I'm going to cut it. ”
"You don't have to cut it, just bring it in. ”
There is nothing in the greens, just some spinach, Chinese cabbage, lettuce, and oily wheat cabbage, which Hanpi bought back in the countryside today.
"Brother, did you use all our food tickets for this month?"
"It's useless, okay, you don't care, don't worry, your brother can't starve you, and let you have food to eat every day. ”
took the green vegetables in Chen Xiao's hand, except for the cabbage and lettuce that were torn by hand a few times, nothing else moved, and put them in the washing basin on the table. Then Han Pi came to the kitchen alone, took out two catties of mutton from the space, two catties for four people is almost enough, there are so many dishes, and you have to eat steamed buns, it is not good to eat too much meat at a time.
The knife turned around a few times in the hand of Hanpi, and then threw the mutton up, and suddenly the sword flashed, and a piece of transparent mutton fell on the plate next to it, and soon, two catties of mutton filled two large plates, this is not a frozen mutton slice, a real mutton.
"The meat is coming!"
It just happened that the hot pot was also opened, and the naughty poured hot water, of course, it opened quickly, in fact, if it was bone broth, it was better, isn't it, you can only make do with boiling water.
