The Jiang family's house is very small, although it is also a courtyard house, but the area may not even be 1/10 of the Li house, plus there are many children. When Jiang Chengde led his three sons into the living room and dining room, it seemed that this originally small space had become more cramped and crowded.

"Brother, you are back, if you don't come back, the dumplings are wrapped. Jiang Huiqin was leading her four nephews to sit at the small table and make dumplings, and when she saw that Jiang Chengde finally came back, she complained, and pointed to the long row of dumplings that had been wrapped in different sizes on the side, and at first glance it was a bulging dumpling from the hands of several people.

Jiang Feng leaned over to take a look and found that there were three kinds of filling, pork and green onion filling, sauerkraut filling and leek egg filling, if it was put aside on weekdays, it would definitely be very rich, and if it was used as a Chinese New Year's Eve meal, it would be more chilly.

"That's not right, you can eat it when you get home. Jiang Chengde said with a smile.

Lying on the edge of the table and looking youngest, at a glance he knew that it was the old man's child in a cotton jacket made of red fabric, and raised the bulging dumpling in his hand that he would not recognize as a dumpling if it was not for the edge to show off.

"Dad, look at the dumplings I wrap are better than those of Brother 5 and Brother 6!" Jiang Weiguo looked proud.

"What's so good-looking? The skin is going to be stuffed by you, and those who don't know think you're wrapping pies, buns or rice balls, so put less filling. Jiang Chengde is definitely not a parent who knows how to encourage children, and pointed to the lunch box, "Huiqin, take the dishes in the kitchen to steam them." I'll fry another cabbage, why can I peel my feet and bring it to the kitchen, down, after almost two incense, let's have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. ”

Jiang Huiqin, who got the order, immediately put down the dough she had just received in her hand, patted the flour, took the food box, and walked to the kitchen with Jiang Chengde.

The kitchen was in the corner, separated from the main hall by a bedroom and a firewood room, to Jiang Feng's surprise, this kitchen looked about the same size as the main hall, although it was a little crowded with a lot of miscellaneous items, but the area was indeed not small.

Jiang Chengde lit a few kerosene lamps to make the kitchen look a lot brighter. The light of the kerosene lamp is definitely not as good as the light of the electric lamp, it is dim, and it has smoky eyes, so it cannot be placed too close.

But this darkness is just Jiang Feng's feeling that Jiang Chengde and Jiang Huiqin are very accustomed to this kind of light. Jiang Chengde said that he wanted to stir-fry vegetables, but he didn't take the basket of cabbage in the corner that didn't look very fresh for the first time, but walked behind the stove, bent down and looked inside, and fiddled with it with a burning stick.

Jiang Feng noticed that when the burning stick fluctuated, there was a little fire in it, it was not obvious, and it dimmed after a while, obviously it had just been extinguished for a long time.

"The fire is out. Jiang Chengde said.

Jiang Huiqin just put the food box on the table, and was about to open it to see what kind of food was inside, when she heard Jiang Chengde say this, she panicked, and slapped her head fiercely with a look of chagrin: "Oops, I just patronized making dumplings and forgot about the kitchen work." ”

"It's all Xiao Qi's fault, he's the most noisy. ”

"It's also to blame the country. Jiang Chengde shook his head helplessly, took advantage of the temperature in the stove and stuffed a handful of straw into it to rekindle the fire, and added a few more firewood, "Just extinguished, it's okay." ”

Jiang Huiqin stuck out her tongue, obviously trying to make a grimace but didn't make it, and opened the food box: "Brother, you scared me again, I thought it was ...... Wow, brother, you've made a fortune. ”

Jiang Huiqin opened the food box sent by Boss Lu.

"Yellow stewed shark fin, two-color prawns, Wanfu meat, these are all Yongheju's dishes, if I remember correctly, Yongheju yellow braised shark fin will be sold for 6 oceans, and it is generally not delivered!" Jiang Huiqin looked surprised.

"I know the price quite well, this is sent by Boss Lu. Jiang Chengde said, cut two cabbages, and removed all the big leaves on the outside, leaving only the tender cabbage sum in the middle.

"Boss Lu is rare and generous. Jiang Huiqin opened a food box, "Eh, brother, you also made clear soup and willow leaf swallow vegetables." ”

"It's not that you said you want to eat, you were too busy at night to have time, and it was done in the afternoon, and you forgot about it when you put it in the stove, and it is estimated that the taste and texture are a little different. ”

"It's okay, as long as it's made by my brother, it's delicious. Jiang Huiqin said with a smile, took out a jar that was originally stuffy in the pot, and put the dishes in it.

The jar is sealed with lotus leaves, and it looks a little like a Buddha jumping over the wall, but if it is a Buddha jumping over the wall, the model of the jar is not quite right, so Jiang Feng can't guess what is in the jar for a while.

In the next second, Jiang Feng knew what was in the jar, Jiang Chengde opened the jar and poured all the soup in the jar into the pot.

It is sea cucumber and abalone soup.

It's still a very soft stew.

In addition to large abalone and sea cucumbers, Jiang Feng also saw seafood such as dried shrimp and scallops, and there are many ways to make sea cucumber and abalone soup, but it is relatively rare for Jiang Chengde to stew only seafood without other ingredients. What made Jiang Feng feel strange was that this soup was not fragrant, at least he didn't smell anything when he opened the lid, and he didn't have the fragrance of other dishes he saw in his memory for ten miles when he opened the lid, which was refreshed and refreshed.

After pouring it into the pot and approaching, Jiang Feng smelled a trace of the unique fresh fragrance of seafood, and even a little fishy smell of seafood.

At least it doesn't smell like a good soup.

It's not pretty, there are no other ingredients to decorate, and the soup stewed with simple seafood is very single in color, and it doesn't look like a delicious soup.

It doesn't look good and smells bad, although it is very nourishing and nutritious, but Jiang Feng feels that this soup is really not like Jiang Chengde's style.

Then Jiang Feng watched Jiang Chengde take three small bowls, and picked up the sea cucumber, abalone, and other seafood in the soup into three small bowls and put them aside, leaving only soup and soup residue in the pot.

Jiang Chengde covered the pot with the lid and let the soup in the pot boil, then threw the cleaned tender cabbage into the pot and passed it quickly several times like water, put it out, pour the soup, and then smear a circle of lard on the pot, pour the cabbage into the pot and fry it as quickly as an ordinary stir-fry, until the cabbage looks very fresh and tender when it comes out of the pot.

Then Jiang Chengde chopped all the seafood in the bowl, minced and mixed it with the cabbage leaves that had been discarded before, seasoned it to make a dumpling filling filled with abalone and sea cucumber, and covered the dumpling filling with a cloth.

Jiang Huiqin's dishes are also hot.

Counting this stir-fried cabbage, there are only five dishes in total, which is not as many as the head, but four of them are expensive dishes, even if they are used for ordinary people's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, it can be regarded as quite hearty.

Jiang Huiqin saw that Jiang Chengde's cabbage was fried, and proposed: "Brother, let's wait for so many dumplings today, eat the vegetables first, so as not to get the cabbage cold." You came back too late today, Wei Guo and Wei Ping kept shouting that they were hungry when they were making dumplings just now, and Wei Ping also stole the sauerkraut and ate it. ”

"It's me who came back too late, and the two of them can't stand the hunger. Jiang Chengde picked up the cabbage, and Jiang Huiqin put the vegetables back into the food box and picked up the food box.

"Let's go, let's have dinner first, and after eating, we have to keep the New Year, have you taken all the dishes and chopsticks?"

"I took it, it was originally on the table, but then I was afraid that the dishes and chopsticks would hit me and put it on the cabinet again, oh, by the way, I forgot to take my sister-in-law's pair. Brother, you help me carry a food box, and I'll go get a pair of dishes and chopsticks. Jiang Huiqin stuffed the food box with more dishes to Jiang Chengde, and where did she go to find a pair of dishes and chopsticks.

The brother and sister walked towards the main hall with the dishes.

Before she reached the main hall, Jiang Huiqin shouted loudly: "Wei Ze, Wei Jin, Wei Ming, Wei An, Wei You, Wei Ping, Wei Guo, quickly pick up the table and start eating!"
