Chapter 146: Hand in hand for a wedding feast

With two little helpers, Bian Rui suddenly felt that the burden on his body was light, and after thinking about it, he simply moved a few pigs at home to the small courtyard on the slope.

In the blink of an eye, it's May, and now the biggest thing in the village is the marriage of the seven cats, as an elder, what kind of hole house has nothing to do with Bian Rui, only to help these things is the turn of Bian Rui and these elders.

Bian Rui's task has long been assigned, and smoked duck and smoked fish are Bian Rui's jobs.

The day is May 1st, and it is also in time for the national holiday, not only the children outside the village are back, but also the relatives of the Seven Cats family have also arrived, what uncles, aunts, eldest cousins and second cousins, even the village is full of more than 400 people, and no one's yard can accommodate so many people, so they have to set up a wedding shed in the village's drying field, and the master who runs the flowing water seat directly set up a pot table on the edge of the drying field.

More than 400 people in the city must stay in a hotel, but in Bianjia Village there is no need, each family arranges five or six people, it is really not good to work, directly spread dry straw in the hall, spread the quilt on the ground directly, everyone is not particular, and no one is picky because of this matter.

Bian Rui's family did not assign anyone to live, because many relatives felt restrained, such a good house made them feel uncomfortable, and the fourth uncle in charge also knew everyone's thoughts, so Bian Rui's family did not arrange anyone to live, but arranged for a family of six to live in his parents' house, fortunately, Bian Rui's room and the little girl's room were still empty, and there was no problem with living for six people, so at least Bian Rui's parents' family had no one to lay on the floor.

At five o'clock in the morning, Bian Rui got up from bed, and he didn't have time to practice boxing today, let alone hang out, more than 40 tables of smoked duck and smoked fish were enough for Bian Rui to be busy for a morning.

After getting up and moving around the yard, Bian Rui heard movement outside, walked to the gate of the yard, and found two seventeen or eighteen-year-old cousins and nephews holding the handle of a tricycle and pushing the other behind, with two bamboo baskets of ducks and fish on the cart.

Both children are in high school in the county, and now that the seventh brother is getting married, they also have to roll up their sleeves to help.

Seeing this, Bian Rui hurriedly stepped forward to take a hand, and his uncle and nephew directly transported the basket to the kitchen.

"Uncle Nineteen, let's go back, there are still a lot of things waiting for us over there" The cousin wiped the sweat from his face.

Bian Rui snorted: "Go! Come and pick up things at eleven o'clock."

"Can you finish it?" said the cook would have to do it until at least twelve," the other cousin was a little curious.

"What so much nonsense, let you come at eleven o'clock," Bian Rui scolded with a smile.

The two nephews walked to the gate of the courtyard with a smile, and happened to meet Jing Lu who came over on a small electric car, and after the two said hello to Jing Lu, they left.

"Coming?"

"Well, master, I'm here," Jing Lu said.

"Go to the kitchen and check if the ducks and fish are in good order, you know!" Bian Rui instructed the matter.

Jinglu didn't speak, he went into the house and started to work, as for why she was the only one who came, where did Mo Sheng, this kid go? This kid is not lazy, but was invited by the Seven Cats family to help, this faceless and skinless kid is much better than Jinglu in the village, and there are people to eat everywhere, and it is not the kind of fake politeness.

The duck and fish are very clean, but that is the vision of the country cook, and it is a little less interesting to put it here in Bian Rui, so Jinglu moved a bench and slowly picked up the remaining duck feathers on the duck with tweezers.

Each of the fish sent is about two catties, at most it is about one or two pounds, and the fish is naturally not bought outside, but is ordered by the nearby fish farmers, including the pond contracted out by Bianjia Village, and it is easy to get together enough fish of about 200 about the same size.

The fish is the first good, Bian Rui just used the ingredients here, put on disposable gloves, Bian Rui went through each fish in the material, wiped the marinade on the fish body and fish belly, and then neatly stacked it in the oak barrel next to it.

All the fish were pickled, Bian Rui picked up the tweezers and worked with Jinglu to pick duck feathers, and talked to Jinglu about the skills of work while clipping.

"Yo, you're all busy?"

Yan Lan entered the courtyard in a hurry, with a helmet under her arm, and as she spoke, she placed the helmet on the shelf at the door, and then began to wash her hands and prepare to help.

Bian Rui asked curiously, "Didn't your parents come to see you today?"

Yan Lan said: "Uncle Wu, they happened to be in Mingzhu, and they said that they would come together in the afternoon, and it is estimated that they will be in the evening." And, thank you, give up a small yard."

The latter sentence was said to Jing Lu.

Jing Lu smiled when he heard this: "Anyway, we can't live in a small courtyard, and now it's a bit too luxurious for one person to live in a small courtyard."

Bian Rui laughed and said nothing, he knew that Mo Sheng, this kid, didn't want to be under the same roof with the two old people, first, he was afraid that the old man would be verbose, and secondly, he didn't live with strangers, so he moved to Jinglu's small courtyard, one lived in the east chamber and the other lived in the west chamber, and there was nothing to do.

After Yan Lan sat down, she began to work, and said while working: "I just went to the drying field to take a look, wow, it's so lively, I have also participated in weddings before, although some of the golden walls are better than here, but in terms of liveliness, this is the most lively I have ever seen, it seems that your whole village is starting to get busy, and all the adults can find work in this wedding, it's so interesting."

Bian Rui smiled and said: "Interesting, then why don't you just find a young man in our village to marry, and then go into battle in person to enjoy this kind of lively energy, wouldn't it be more beautiful?"

"Let's talk about the wedding, by the way, Jinglu, have you run out of cosmetics, I'll give you another bottle if you run out," Yan Lan said.

When Jing Lu heard this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "There are still more than half of the bottles, I'll ask you when I'm done with them."

"You're welcome, I still have a lot of things over there, this brand of things is good, especially in terms of moisturizing, you see my face ......" Yan Lan said.

As soon as Bian Rui heard the cosmetics, he immediately had a black line in his head, so he stood up and threw down a sentence: "I'll go and drag the fish outside!"

The two women who talked about cosmetics didn't care, and Bian Rui dragged the bucket of fish outside.

Outside, Rui put the fish bucket into the space, and after a second or two, he got the bucket out again, and the forty or so fish were actually marinated by this time.

After washing off the marinade, Bian Rui began to make a fire, and then put the material of the roasted fish in the pot, which is some simple pepper or something, add a little vinegar and sugar, the soup does not need to be too thick, wait for the water to boil, put the fish into the boiling soup one by one, each fish into the soup when it begins to be three times to put it, this is to protect the integrity of the fish skin, wait for the fish skin to be set, and then use the bamboo claw drain to put the fish in the boiling soup and cook for about a minute, here can not be boiled for a long time, and it is not to cook the fish.

After the fish is boiled in the soup and cooled and dried, start the new pot, start frying the rice, put the rice and dried red pepper together in the pot and fry it, and when the rice turns yellow, put the bamboo steaming drawer in the pot, do not put any water below, wash down the fish belly, fill the entire steaming drawer, and can only put a layer on it.

After setting it up, cover the pot, and then wrap it around the side of the pot with semi-wet gauze to prevent the smoke from the rice from running away.

The fish on Bian Rui's side were smoked, and Yan Lan and Jing Lu over there had already brushed the duck feathers, and at the same time washed the forty or so ducks and dried the water on the ducks.

"Master?"

"You'd better go to the house and bring the electronic scale, don't take the small one, take the largest one, forty or so ducks have to be counted by the pound" Bian Rui began to teach Jinglu ingredients.

"Shall I go away?" Yan Lan asked.

Bian Rui said: "Do you still have less time to eat and drink? Just stay and stay, it's not a secret, this is actually what I learned online, but I changed a few of the flavors and added some Chinese herbs into it, you can't understand it just by looking at it."

Soon Jing Lu brought the scales, Bian Rui began to point to the bags on the ground, most of them were sent last night, the materials bought on the market, there are two or three flavors that Bian Rui planted himself, fiddling with each kind in the space and planting a few catties, after natural air drying, it has long been pounded into powder, not to mention that Yan Lan is an ordinary Chinese pharmacist may not be able to distinguish it.

Chinese food is different for every chef in the same dish, unlike Western food, what kind of beef is cut first, how thick it is, marinated for a few minutes, and grilled for a few minutes, just like there is a standard operating manual. As for Chinese food, there are 100 flavors for 100 people, and 100 dishes for 100 chefs. Some people like to be spicy, some people like to be light, and no chef has the courage to say that the dishes I make are loved by the people of the whole country, which must be bragging, even if it is a state banquet, I don't think it tastes good, let alone ordinary cooks.

It seems that Bian Rui made it with concentration, and it is suitable for the old gentleman, such as Zhou Zheng and others feel tasteless when they eat it.

The ingredients smoked by Bian Rui are also the taste of the public, slightly spicy, salty and fresh, if you make the dishes offered by the shed into a light party, and then ask for an original taste, it is estimated that everyone will scold the master behind his back for not being able to hire a good cook.

Even if the pot was plugged, the aroma of rice burn still came out, and after looking at the watch, he found that there was still half the time before the smoke was ready, and Bian Rui felt that this time had passed a little long.

"Daddy?"

Bian Rui turned his head and saw his daughter wearing pajamas and pajamas, and stood at the door rubbing his eyes.

"Go back to the house, don't you know if it's cool now?" Bian Rui said and walked to his daughter's side, holding the little girl under her armpit and going to her house.

"I'm hungry!"

The little girl went back to the house, sat down on the ground, and said while yawning.

"Let's have some bread!"

This morning, Bian Rui really didn't have time to make breakfast, so he brought a little bread to his daughter: "Eat some and sleep, wait to open your eyes and eat the feast."

When the little girl heard this, she grabbed the bread in her hand, and the bag had not been torn open, so she crooked and lay down again. I don't know where this kid came from, and he can sleep directly.

Bian Rui looked at the girl and shook her head and smiled, reached out and picked up the blanket and covered the girl's body, just about to leave, when suddenly heard the sound of Daxun Erchong and a group of little hairy heads outside the yard.

"Sister, Sister Xiaojing!"

As soon as she heard this voice, she screamed, and the little girl suddenly got up from the bed, pricked up her ears and listened to two sentences that seemed to be sure that her friends were calling herself, so she began to get busy.

"Daddy, where's my clothes!"

"Daddy, where's my socks?"

"Oh, there's no hurry!"

......

Bian Rui smiled while helping his daughter find clothes: "What's the matter, what's the matter?

"Brother Xun said, Brother Cat Seventh got married today, we are going to help!"

Looking at the girl's serious face, Bian Ruiqiang couldn't help but laugh, just these leather monkeys went to help, it is estimated that the seven cats saw that their heads were bigger, and it was lucky not to make trouble for others, but also to help?

However, Bian Rui was not prepared to persuade, how to settle these bear children on a happy occasion is also a test of the ability of the officer, and Bian Rui does not want to make this group of leather monkeys play at home, and when he goes crazy, Bian Rui's head can become three times the size of usual.

Anyway, everyone in this matter holds the idea that the dead friends will not die and the poor will not die, and these little skin monkeys will harm whoever they want, as long as it does not harm their own heads, they are good children.

Three times five divided by two, the little girl put on her clothes, sprinkled joy out of the yard, and called Xiaohua when she went out, Xiaohua, a dog with a head and tail, followed the little master, and she was excited to get out of the S-shape.
