Grandma Jiang walked into the steamer of steamed crab stuffed oranges, found a rag wrapped in her hand and picked up the steamer, walked in to feel the temperature inside, and lifted the lid of the steamer to look at the crab stuffed oranges in the pot, although she couldn't see anything, she still couldn't help but sigh.

"This kid, what are you fooling around, this can also be called stewing, if everyone follows this stewing method, it will be a waste. ”

Jiang Feng didn't know that Grandma Jiang, the master of stewed rice, complained about his stewing method, and went to the lobby with tables and chairs with green onion pancakes.

Walking from a distance with the food, Jiang Feng looked at the lobby from a distance, and actually felt that this scene was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

It's in Li Mingyi's memory!

The memory of the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner where the Yam was obtained, the lobby where the Li family ate on Chinese New Year's Eve was almost exactly the same as this one, except that the scenery around the table was missing. It's just that the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner that Jiang Feng saw in his memory was at night, it was already dark, the lights were very dark, the lights in the lobby were bright, everyone was smiling, but it was dark outside.

What Jiang Feng didn't know was that the current lobby was the one he had seen in his memory before.

When Li Mingyi and Jiang Huiqin returned to China, they saw that the Li Mansion was so dilapidated that they pushed and rebuilt it on the basis of the original house, and abandoned most of the ear rooms, utility rooms and subordinate rooms, which greatly reduced the area of the Li Mansion, but left this place alone without tearing down and rebuilding.

This is the banquet hall of the Li family.

For Li Mingyi, this room has a special meaning.

The eldest sister's wedding banquet, the second sister's wedding banquet, her own wedding banquet, and even grandma's birthday banquet and the annual Chinese New Year's Eve banquet are all held here, year after year, here carries too many memories and laughter of Li Mingyi and Jiang Huiqin, true or false, true or false. Even for Li Mingyi back then, most of the people who once left him good memories here are no longer alive, and he is reluctant to let this place disappear.

So he chose to ask craftsmen to restore the place, and put all the tables and chairs in the warehouse.

He hoped that one day, it would be as lively as it had been, even if he didn't have the chance to see it again.

"When I was a child, my family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was eaten in that dining room. Professor Li sat in the living room and chatted with the two old men, "At that time, my mother and my brother were still there, and there were only 4 people in our family. ”

"If my dad were still here, I would be happy to see the dining room so lively. Professor Li sighed.

"Uncle will be happy, he likes to be lively the most. Jiang Weiming said with a smile.

......

Jiang Feng put the pancakes on the table and ran outside to get takeout, and the takeaway brother was waiting outside on the little blue car that Jiang Feng was familiar with. A large paper bag contains three mooncakes, which are still hot, and the shabby packaging does not match the price of the gift box.

Jiang Feng went in with moon cakes and bumped into Comrade Wang Xiulian, who was eating grapes.

"Mom, you help me put these mooncakes on a plate and put them on the table, I still have vegetables in the kitchen, remember to leave a fresh meat mooncake for Xia Xia. Jiang Feng handed the moon cake to Comrade Wang Xiulian.

"Got it. Wang Xiulian turned out the moon cakes, took one out of the bag and stuffed it into her mouth.

A set of movements is smooth and very smooth.

Jiang Feng returned to the kitchen and found that the fire on the side of the steamer had been turned to medium by Grandma Jiang.

Shocked, Jiang Feng hurriedly turned down the heat.

"Grandma, how did you adjust to medium heat?"

"What's wrong with turning it to medium heat, don't you want to simmer?" Grandma Jiang turned over the pancakes in the pot and turned off the heat.

A real firewood saver, even if it is a gas stove or a pancake, the last step can be completed by simmering.

"Huh?" Jiang Feng was stunned.

"Isn't that how to stew, save firewood, and turn off the heat at the end. Grandma Jiang looked inexplicable.

"But I'm going to keep it cold. ”

"Then you turn down the heat little by little, and then turn it off at the end. "In this matter, Grandma Jiang has the most right to speak.

Grandma Jiang looked at the cakes in the pot, turned over again, and covered the pot.

"It's called simmering when you turn off the fire, what is it called simmering when you turn it on and off, it doesn't take firewood to light the fire. "Grandma Jiang always believes that stewing is to save firewood, and all stews that are not for saving firewood are fake stews and copycats.

Jiang Feng was stunned.

He seemed to have grasped the essence of stew.

Save firewood!

That's right, it's firewood.

Simmering is to save firewood, so naturally how to save firewood and how to come.

The real firewood saver is strong, and he can point out the grandson who wastes firewood in just a few words.

He wants to use time and lower temperature to blend the orange aroma and orange flavor with the crab meat on the basis of not destroying the original sweetness and sourness of the orange, so he can first boil the water on high heat, raise the temperature in the pot, then turn to medium heat to put the crab stuffed orange in, then turn to low heat, and finally turn off the heat.

The heat is reduced a little bit, and the temperature in the pot drops a little bit, so there is no need to keep it low at all, just let it cool down a little bit like when cooking rice in an earthen stove.

Jiang Feng even wanted to remake a batch of crab stuffed oranges at the beginning.

It's just a pity that time doesn't allow it.

Just when Jiang Feng was remorseful, Grandma Jiang's pancakes came out of the pot.

"How long do you have this crab stuffed orange?" asked Grandma Jiang with the cake.

"Just a few minutes. Jiang Feng has already given up the pot of crab stuffed oranges in front of him, and after this pot of crab stuffed oranges has gone through several times of turning on and off the fire and one medium heat, the taste is estimated to be not very ideal.

7 minutes later, the crab stuffed orange is out of the pot, and the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet begins.

By the time Jiang Feng went out with the crab stuffed oranges, everyone was already sitting in a row at the table, waiting for Jiang Wei to cut the porpoise.

Jiang Weiming personally made the cannon dolphin, and he had to cut it himself to have a soul.

In fact, the main reason is that Jiang Weiming has the highest level, and he can divide each part just right. Top chefs use the technique of cutting the porpoise, and the delicious addition is not a little bit or two.

As Jiang Feng brought the crab stuffed orange to the table, the knife in Jiang Weiming's hand also slashed towards the porpoise.

One, two, three......

Squeeze in a little more lime juice.

Soon, the two portions of almost the same amount of porpoise were divided, the pig's head was left at the elder's table, and Jiang Zaide, as the eldest brother in the junior, diligently went to serve the porpoise, if it wasn't for the conditions, he even wanted to take chopsticks to serve it.

After all, the porpoise was in his hand when it was served, and it was not necessarily in whose mouth it fell into after it was served.

Ji Xia sat between Jiang Junlian and Jiang Junqing.

In the past, this kind of luxurious seat sandwiched between the two cousins was all sat by Jiang Feng, but now that it has been replaced by Ji Xia, Jiang Feng can only sit next to Wu Minqi and Jiang Shoucheng while sighing that he has really accepted a good apprentice.

Help the master share his worries, good apprentice.

Now Jiang Feng's good apprentice is a little full.

Ji Xia ate 4 ham mooncakes and stuffed a stomach full of meat and noodles, and she now feels that she is eight points full.

But she can also eat two more bites of the porpoise!

Ji Xia looked at the cannon dolphin in Jiang Zaide's hand, and had already determined that he would hold that piece of meat later.

Be quick when you start, aim accurately, not half-heartedly, and hit with one hit.

Ji Xia has already practiced many times in her heart how to pick up vegetables when she eats with a few uncles.

"Come, Xia Xia, eat mooncakes, this is a fresh meat mooncake, it's delicious to eat while it's hot. Jiang Feng remembered that Ji Xia wanted to eat moon cakes, so he sandwiched a moon cake for Ji Xia.

Ji Xia picked up the moon cake and took a big bite.

Fragrant.

Flaky.

Meat.

It's just a little bit of a stretch.

"Hiccup. Ji Xia hiccuped.

Jiang Junlian: ???

"Xia Xia, are you full?" Jiang Junlian was shocked.

"Hiccup, it seems. Ji Xia took another bite of the moon cake and made sure that he was full, "It's full." ”

"Did you eat anything before?" Jiang Junlian, who had eaten 4 ham mooncakes with Ji Xia, didn't understand why Ji Xia was full so quickly, "Didn't you eat lunch?"

"I ate those 4 mooncakes and then had breakfast at 7 a.m. Ji Xia said, very curious, "Aren't you full?"

"How can you be full, it's only 4 mooncakes, it's a small snack before the meal. Jiang Junlian saw that the porpoise was finally on the table, and quickly stretched out her chopsticks to grab a piece of good meat for herself, "You should be in a hurry, drink two sips of water and you'll be fine, I'll give you this piece of meat." ”

Jiang Junlian generously distributed the cannon dolphin she had just grabbed to Ji Xia, joined the battlefield again, and snatched a piece of good meat from Jiang Feng's chopsticks.

Jiang Feng, who lost his love for meat: ???

Didn't Jiang Junlian just sandwich a piece and finish eating?

Jiang Feng looked up and found that the meat that Jiang Junlian had sandwiched for the first time actually appeared in Ji Xia's bowl, and he was sad and happy for a while, I don't know whether to sigh or the cousin finally grew up and knew to share it with others, or should I be sad that the price of my cousin's growth up is that the meat I fancy is gone.

"When did Jun Lian and Xia Xia have such a good relationship?" Jiang Feng asked.

"Maybe it's because they're about the same age, and Junlian has been talking to Xia Xia just now. Wu Minqi said, "Xia Xia doesn't have any peers to make friends with here, and it's good to play with Junlian and them." ”

Jiang Feng nodded.

It's better not to grab the meat you like.
