"Xia Qiu, what nonsense are you talking about? Are you trying to provoke the relationship between me and your second aunt? Why are you so vicious?"

Wang Lihua, who was weak-hearted, dodged her eyes and didn't dare to look at Liu Zhaodi.

"I'm just saying it so casually, why should you take it seriously, third aunt?"

Xia Qiu was not in a hurry or annoyed, and looked at Wang Lihua with the most innocent eyes.

Wang Lihua was choked by her words again and was speechless.

There was a burning smell coming to her nose, and Xia Qiu frowned slightly. "Ahh

Hearing this, Liu Zhaodi and Wang Lihua were in no mood to continue arguing with Xia Qiu.

"You bad girl, I'll clean you up when I get back. Liu Zhaodi threw down a warning word and hurried back to the kitchen. Wang Lihua didn't get a good deal and left in a huff.

Xia Qiu saw that they were all going back to their respective homes, and she hooked her lips and smiled. Wang Lihua is not a good stubble, although she never had a head-on conflict with their family in the previous life, she will always appear from time to time, adding fuel to the fire, and letting Liu Zhaodi come to embarrass their family. When competing for a big family's industry, she never fell behind.

In this life, let the two of them eat dogs. After making up her mind, her smile became deeper and brighter, like the warm sun in summer, gorgeous and dazzling. Regarding the oral confrontation between her and Liu Zhaodi, Li Cuifen didn't say anything more. On the contrary, she felt relieved, as if the grievances that had been held in her heart for many years were gradually released, and she was very happy.

When Xia and Qiu came back, the mother and daughter made breakfast, fed the pigs, fed the chickens and ducks, and were very busy.

The day passed quietly, the next morning, Xia Qiu and Xia Xue they touched back and raised for two days, the sand was almost spit clean fifty or sixty catties of snails washed, with pliers cut off the tail of the snails, and began to fry the snails on the pot. The summer snow burns the fire, the summer rain carries firewood, and the ingredients are prepared in summer and autumn.

Thickly sliced ginger, garlic, cinnamon, star anise, Sichuan peppercorns, bay leaves, and perilla are all placed in a bowl.

"Sister, how did you come up with so many ingredients?"

Xia Xue and Xia Yu opened their mouths wide when they saw the ingredients needed for the fried snails prepared by Xia Qiu, they couldn't suppress their curiosity, and they asked when they opened their mouths. The two sisters, almost in unison, asked the same question.

Xia Qiu's eyes dodged for a moment, and she was a little flustered. After all, she couldn't tell them that she had eaten this fried snail and learned it when she went out to work in her previous life and went out for supper with others.

Her brain thought about it quickly, and then said: "I suddenly like to make good food, so I went to buy a book about cooking, which happens to have a recipe for fried snails, I will try it, maybe it is delicious, we can make a lot of money by selling it." ”

"Really, why didn't I see you have a book like this?"

Xia Xue was suspicious and frowned at her thin eyebrows. Xia Qiu's heart was weak, and he laughed dryly.

"You don't like to study all day, you only know how to play, where can you find out that I have bought a new book?"

Afraid that she would reveal her stuffing if she continued to make it up, she was busy and changed the topic.

"It's almost ready to be fried, so I won't tell you. ”

But she was muttering in her heart, she had to find a book about food, and she had to have a food book about the dish of fried snails.

"Lord, I have a copy of the Gourmet Handbook, and I plan to give it to you very generously. ”

While she was worrying about how to find such a book, Hachi jumped out at this time.

"In this, there are records of the practice of various cuisines for 5,000 years, and there are also recipes for your fried snails. It folded its hands around its chest, its chin slightly raised, and its face was a little proud.

"This can be there. "With such a good thing, Xia Qiu naturally won't refuse.

"But you definitely didn't give it away for nothing, did you?" she asked Hachi in a low voice with her mind.

Hachi coughed lightly twice, "This...... Of course it's for free, who am I? I'm the most generous Marshal of the Tempo, but it's just a book, can't I afford to give it away?"

After speaking, it blinked its big eyes and stared at Xia Qiu with a smile.

"But...... It would be best if you could cook me some of the delicacies in this gourmet universal book on a regular basis. ”

Xia Qiu snorted and laughed, "I knew that you, a snack bout, sent me these things about food for your little glutton." ”

Xiaoba didn't think there was anything, raised his arrogant chin, and said: "This pig lives for a lifetime, so naturally he wants to eat, drink, and sleep well." ”

"Okay, well, I'll learn all the delicacies above and make them for you to eat. She smiled lightly, her bright eyes as bright as black pearls twinkling with doting. While one person and one pig were talking, the snails were also stirring. Xia Qiu poured oil into the pot, put peppercorns, cinnamon and star anise, fried them over low heat, and after the peppercorns were fragrant, she asked Xia Xue to burn the fire a little more, poured the snails down, poured in the white wine, and continued to stir-fry. Stir-fry twice, add bay leaves, green onions, and dried chili peppers to continue stir-frying, finally add the water that can cover the snails, add salt, bring to a boil over high heat, until half of the soup is dry, add perilla leaves, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, chopped green onions.

In this way, the fragrant and spicy delicious fried snails are ready.

Hachi's saliva was attracted by the fragrance of the snail, and similarly, Xia Xue and Xia Yu were also overwhelmed by this delicacy, and couldn't wait to take a snail and eat it.

"Wow, it's delicious. ”

Xia Xue ate one, took another and ate another.

"Sister, I love you so much now, I want to live with you for the rest of my life, and eat the delicious food you make every day. ”

Similarly, the summer rain can't stop eating. Poor Hachi, I can only watch them eat there with relish.

"Xia Qiu, you hurry up and give me some, I've been putting up with it for two days, you're done now, and it's too ruthless for me to watch others eat? Xiao Hachi couldn't bear it anymore and wailed towards Xia Qiu.

Xia Qiu couldn't cry or laugh, in order not to kill Xiao Ba, she had to make an excuse and said: "Xia Xue, it's raining, go find a clean cloth, let's take advantage of the fact that this snail is still hot, hurry up and go to the town to sell it, it's almost lunch time now, maybe it can sell well." ”

Xia Xue and Xia Yu were reluctant, and each grabbed a few more snails before going out to the kitchen to find a clean cloth.

Taking advantage of the gap between them leaving, Xia Qiu hurriedly packed two large bowls of snails and sent them to the space. Afraid that Xia Xue and the others would find something when they came back, she sent them in twice, and before she had time to say a word, she hurried back to the real world.

"Wow, my snail, the snail I think about day and night. ”

Xia Qiu heard it, and the little eight in the space cheered happily. The crisp and joyful voice seemed to get the whole world. Xia Xue and the others took two pieces of floral cloth back to the kitchen, and saw that there seemed to be something wrong with the snails that were already in the bucket.

"Sister, why do I think there is a little less of this snail? Could it be that we ate a lot just now? Or did you just take advantage of our absence to eat?" Xia Xue asked with one hand on her cheek and puzzled.
