Chapter 267: The Grace of One Meal (3)
Collecting the juice and thickening is a technical work, Cao Guixiang first adds condiments to the pot, and then boils the black cucumber and the soup together over a slight fire, and after ten minutes, the black cucumber is put out and put on the plate, and the unraveled starch is used to thicken the soup in the pot together, drizzled with chicken fat, and finally poured on the black cucumber together.
The sauce looks thick, but when it is poured over the black cucumber, it is very coherent and cascades down like water.
Jiang Feng was stunned.
He looked at Cao Guixiang's movements, but what he thought of was the Eight Treasure Chestnut Pigeon.
Sun Guanyun's sauce is also boiled out of soup, although it doesn't seem to be Cao Guixiang's practice, but the result is similar.
The big black cucumber is out of the pot.
Jiang Feng visually inspected the black cucumber on the plate to be a foot long, because of the pouring of the sauce, it was brownish-red, not as short as the sashimi, the whole body was smooth, and there were black horizontal spots on the skin, plus the size was big enough, it looked very magnificent and mighty, and it was not the first dish in the banquet.
"Chiyuan, Shao... Shao children, it's time to eat!" Zhang Chu brought the grilled black ginseng to the table.
There are three dishes on the table, grilled black cucumber, two-color prawns and steamed sea bass, these three dishes can be called a gluttonous feast when Jiang Feng is in the third year of junior high school, not to mention that when Zhang Chiyuan is in the third year of junior high school, Zhang Chiyuan's eyes are straight.
"Dad, have you made a fortune, or have you won the lottery? Zhang Chiyuan felt that he might be the second generation of wealth, and his father had to win the lottery to buy so many good dishes.
"After eating this meal, our family will be poor, this table of dishes will cost your father and me more than two months' salary, and our family will be vegetarian every day in the future, if you are not admitted to high school, you will always be vegetarian, and you will not even be given fat intestines. Zhang Chu went to serve the meal, and saw that Cao Guixiang was still busy in the kitchen, and asked: "Wife, aren't all the dishes done?" Let's get the remaining chicken and ham in the evening, eat first, and wait until the shrimp are cold." ”
"I don't like to eat shrimp, you and Chiyuan can eat it. I just had some leftover sauce, so I tossed it in and stir-fried it together. Cao Guixiang said.
Zhang Chu put 4 bowls of rice on the table, took three pairs of chopsticks and a spoon, and only served him half a bowl of rice because Xue Shaoheng was still a child.
"You eat shrimp first, give it to Shao... Brother Shao will also take one and wait for your mother to come to the table before eating. Zhang Chu advised, "Don't finish eating, leave some for your sister." ”
"Don't worry, I've got it all right. "Zhang Chiyuan has already eaten.
The two-color prawns are also the famous dishes of the Tan family's cuisine, one shrimp eats two, the shrimp body and the shrimp head are two cooking methods, the shrimp head is bright red, the shrimp body is golden, Zhang Chiyuan takes a bite, squeaks, and leaves a fragrant mouth.
After eating two, Zhang Chiyuan remembered Xue Shaoheng.
Xue Shaoheng stood next to him and looked at the dishes on the table, without moving his chopsticks or moving his hands, staring directly at the grilled black cucumber and two-color prawns.
"It's okay if you don't know how to use chopsticks, just grab it with your hands, my family doesn't pay attention to this. Zhang Chi said from afar.
Xue Shaoheng didn't move.
"You don't like to eat shrimp, why are you like my mother, how delicious the shrimp are, especially the two-color prawns made by my mother, which are crispy and crispy, and add fat and water chestnuts, not to mention how delicious. Zhang Chiyuan began to brag about Cao Guixiang's craftsmanship, "The restaurants outside are not as delicious as my mother's!"
Xue Shaoheng still didn't move.
"Forget it, just wait for you to eat sea bass and grilled black cucumber, this grilled black cucumber has been done twice by my mother before, once on my tenth birthday and once on my sister's birthday. The taste is delicate and tender, not to mention it, you must have never eaten such a delicious dish. Although Xue Shaoheng didn't speak, this did not prevent Zhang Chiyuan from speaking.
"Big ......" Xue Shaoheng looked at the big black cucumber.
"What's big, it's a big black cucumber. Zhang Chi said from afar.
"Big black cucumber. Xue Shaoheng said.
"Pick up big black cucumber. Zhang Chiyuan corrected.
"Big black cucumber. Xue Shaoheng said.
"Forget it, it's about the same, the big black cucumber is the big black cucumber. Mom, what are you frying, it's so fragrant. Zhang Chiyuan began to jump into the kitchen.
"Go out and go out, I've cooked everything, why are you coming in? Ham and chicken, you definitely won't eat this dish with so many dishes at noon today, go eat quickly, wait until the dishes are cold." Cao Guixiang walked out with the ham roast chicken, which was mixed with dried scallops.
Jiang Feng, who witnessed the whole process of roasting chicken, said that it may not be a coincidence that Cao Guixiang can casually cook an A-grade dish like Yunji, and the middle-aged version of Cao Guixiang is already very good at cooking indiscriminately. Chicken, ham, scallops, and leftover sauce, such a strange combination of ham roasted chicken Jiang Feng can smell it and want to drool.
Jiang Feng is not the only one who wants to drool, Zhang Chiyuan also thinks that Cao Guixiang's ham roast chicken is very tempting.
"Mom, your ham roast chicken smells quite fragrant, let me taste a piece!" Zhang Chiyuan followed Cao Guixiang back to the table and couldn't wait to grab a piece of chicken.
"Well, it's delicious!" Zhang Chiyuan's expression was very exaggerated.
"I know how to eat, did Brother Shao eat it?" Cao Guixiang also called Xue Shaoheng and Brother Shao according to Zhang Chu's name.
"I told him to eat it, but he didn't eat it, probably because he didn't like shrimp. Zhang Chi said from afar.
Everyone sat down and started eating.
Xue Shaoheng only used a spoon to pick up rice throughout the whole process, and didn't eat any dishes, Cao Guixiang wanted to pick up vegetables for him, so he silently moved the bowl away and didn't take it.
"Why does this kid only eat and not eat vegetables. Cao Guixiang wondered.
"Are you embarrassed, or are you afraid of life?" Zhang Chu guessed.
"Maybe you can't eat it, I heard my classmates say that some people can't eat vegetables, and if they eat it, they will die!" Zhang Chiyuan began to listen and spread rumors.
"What nonsense, I've only seen people starving to death, I haven't seen people eating vegetables to death, and I don't study hard all day long to listen to other people's nonsense. Cao Guixiang took out a handkerchief from the cabinet, put a few shrimp in the handkerchief and wrapped it, and stuffed the handkerchief into Xue Shaoheng's pocket.
"Your dad may be right, I look at the child and I'm afraid of life. Cao Guixiang said.
Zhang Chiyuan didn't care, and took a chopstick to pick up the big black cucumber: "Mom, I don't think your big black cucumber this time is as good as last time." ”
"Your father bought the cucumber, he didn't buy it well, you go to him. Cao Guixiang began to shake the pot, "You eat more black cucumber, it is specially made for you, sea cucumber is nutritious, you will immediately take the high school entrance examination to eat more to replenish your brain, and take a few more points." ”
"Mom, walnuts are the brain. ”
"Then you eat walnuts. ”
......
In the midst of laughter and play, the Zhang family finished lunch. Xue Shaoheng only ate white rice throughout the whole process, and didn't taste a single dish.
After eating, Zhang Chu went to wash the dishes, and after washing the dishes, he sent Xue Shaoheng to the nearby police station. Cao Guixiang saw the art homework that Zhang Chiyuan casually threw on the table, and when she picked it up, she saw that there was an unsightly deformed cup on the drawing paper.
Zhang Chiyuan saw Cao Guixiang's disgusted face, and defended unconvinced: "My painting is already very good, and ordinary people can't paint like this." ”
"Come on, any kid can draw better than you. Cao Guixiang didn't believe Zhang Chiyuan's nonsense.
"Nonsense, Brother Shao, you come to paint. Zhang Chiyuan stuffed the pencil to Xue Shaoheng.
Xue Shaoheng looked at the drawing paper on the table.
Cao Guixiang smiled helplessly.
Xue Shaoheng picked up the pen and drew a stroke on the drawing paper.
Two strokes, three strokes.
The lines were straight and smooth, without a little hesitation, Cao Guixiang and Zhang Chiyuan didn't care much, Jiang Feng's eyes were straight when he saw it on the side.
Every science and engineering dog who wants to learn mechanical drawing knows how difficult it is to work with hand.
No matter how to measure the triangle board, how to draw the compass, the error is there, the last few strokes can never be connected, a wrong step, a floor plan is a whole day, and the painting is all errors.
Young man, please start all over again.
The teacup that Xue Shaoheng is painting now is an alternative three-view in Jiang Feng's opinion.
The meat is basically a 1:1 restoration, what is placed on the table, what he draws on the paper, the same size, the same pattern, the same pattern.
Immortals are nothing more than that.
Cao Guixiang and Zhang Chiyuan didn't realize how special Xue Shaoheng's paintings were, but they just sighed while watching him paint.
"It's really like a painting. Cao Guixiang sighed.
Zhang Chiyuan was speechless.
"What's really like that?" Zhang Chu came out of the kitchen washing dishes.
"Come and see, this painting is exactly the same as our teacup!" Cao Guixiang beckoned Zhang Chu to come over to see the fairy.
Zhang Chu took a closer look and was also stunned: "It's really like, it's exactly the same, this kid can be a painter in the future!"
A teacup is not too complicated, Xue Shaoheng has already finished drawing and stopped writing.
"Little friend Shao, uncle will take you to find your parents and take you home. Zhang Chu took Xue Shaoheng's hand.
"Home. Xue Shaoheng muttered, and walked towards the door, wanting to open the door.
"Home. ”
Xue Shaoheng is going home, otherwise his sister will be in a hurry.
Zhang Chu looked at Xue Shaoheng with some doubts, and boldly guessed: "Does he remember the way home?"
"Home. ”
"Sister. ”
"Home. ”
Xue Shaoheng was a little anxious, the door of Zhang Chu's house was different from his, and he couldn't open the door.
"It seems that it really is, you guy, you brought other people's children back without figuring out the situation, and his parents should be in a hurry. Cao Guixiang rubbed it and got up from the sofa, "You stay at home, it's really unreliable to do things, I'll follow him." ”
Zhang Chu also knew that he was unreliable: "Then you be careful, if he can't find the way, he will be sent to the police station in front." ”
"You still need to say it. Cao Guixiang opened the door and led Xue Shaoheng out.
Xue Shaoheng took Cao Guixiang and walked to his home, first returned to the park, and then walked through the park to his home.
Cao Guixiang has been accompanying Xue Shaoheng to the downstairs of his house, and Aunt Liu, who lives opposite Xue Shaoheng, is downstairs, and when she saw Xue Shaoheng, she shouted in a loud voice: "Xue Hua, Xue Hua, don't look for anything to go to the police station, your brother is back." ”
Cao Guixiang asked, "Do you know this child?"
"I know, just live in my house opposite the door. Aunt Liu said, "You ...... it."
"Shao Heng, Shao Heng!" Before Aunt Liu finished speaking, Xue Hua's screams came from upstairs.
Cao Guixiang was relieved to see that Xue Shaoheng had indeed arrived home, and the family had also come down, and turned around and left.
Xue Hua hurriedly ran downstairs, still dragging the household registration book in her hand, and saw Xue Shaoheng happy and angry, wanting to scold him but not knowing how to scold.
"Where did you go? I didn't tell you not to run around, it's dangerous outside!" Xue Hua was about to cry.
"It's good to be back, your Shao Heng is like this, and you don't scold him. It was a kind man who sent him back just now, and he was in ...... Eh, why did the person leave, your Shao Heng was sent back by a woman about the same age as me. It's really strange, your Shao Heng can't even speak clearly, how did that person send him back. Aunt Liu turned her head and found that Cao Guixiang had left.
"Flowers. Xue Shaoheng said.
"Does Shao Heng want flowers?" Xue Hua asked.
Xue Shaoheng nodded, and shook his head again: "Flowers." ”
Seeing that Xue Hua hadn't understood yet, Xue Shaoheng simply gave up telling her what he was doing, took out the handkerchief that Cao Guixiang had stuffed into his pocket when he had eaten before, and handed it to Xue Hua.
Xue Hua bears a handkerchief, opened, and inside are two two-color prawns.
Two shrimp heads, two shrimp bodies.
"Is this from the person who just sent you back?" Xue Hua asked.
"Eat. Xue Shaoheng asked Xue Hua to eat shrimp.
"My sister doesn't like to eat shrimp, Shao Heng eats it. Xue Huadao.
"Eat. ”
"Big black cucumber. ”
"Big black cucumber?"
"Big black cucumber. ”
Xue Hua smiled and took Xue Shaoheng's hand and led him upstairs.
"Shao Heng, you can't run around in the future. How did you come back today? Did you tell the aunt who sent you back where we live?" Xue Hua asked.
"Big black cucumber. Xue Shaoheng persevered and repeated the three words of big black ginseng.
Xue Hua could probably understand that Xue Shaoheng meant to let her eat shrimp, and said, "Sister doesn't eat it, come, Shao Heng opens his mouth, and my sister feeds you." ”
Xue Shaoheng obediently opened his mouth.
A shrimp body under the belly.
Jiang Feng left the memory.
