Chapter Ninety-Seven: There is a harvest
Originally, Zhu Ping'an was a little reluctant to eat the five cents, but when he saw Da Huzi and Ergouzi, they were excited, and even the Chu family and the Yuan family looked happy, and guessed that the food must be delicious. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
So after discussing it with his mother, he didn't bother to go back to cook, so he stayed and ate.
There are a lot of fish in a big pot, Xiao Chu sandwiched some sauerkraut to eat on the side, there was a circle of people around the small table, Xiao Chu took a pot of wine for the three of them to drink, this time a few were even more terrible, Zhu Ping'an ate the fish one bite after another, he couldn't bear to throw away the chopsticks, the fish was so delicious, it subverted his perception of fish, and he used to cook fish at home with a big fishy smell.
Now I can't feel the slightest fishy smell when I eat the fish made by Xia Qinghe, but I just think that this fish tastes very good, sour and spicy.
Deng couldn't help but eat more, and the sauerkraut and fish were particularly delicious: "Qinghe, this fish is too delicious, how did you do it." ā
Xia Qinghe used pork to boil oil today, the two oils were mixed together, and the fish were marinated in advance one by one, and the fish meat was more flavorful.
She said patiently: "You have this sauerkraut in your family, wrap the fish in sweet potato starch, put a little salt and a little wine to remove the smell in advance, I also use ginger and pepper so it tastes more delicious, if you want to eat it, you can also go back and make it." ā
The two fish brought by Xiao Chu and half a bucket of small fish were boiled, so they boiled such a large wooden basin.
Xiao Chu felt very satisfied eating the fish: "I'll go get some fish tomorrow, I haven't been to the woods for a long time, I'll see if I can hunt game, Qinghe is more delicious to make game." ā
He saw that so many people admired Xia Qinghe's cooking skills, and he was also happy in his heart, and he was also happy for Xia Qinghe, and after walking for so many days, he felt tasteless when he ate anything, and the food cooked by Xia Qinghe was more suitable for him to eat.
This has suffocated him, and now all he thinks about in his head are dishes such as spicy rabbit and spicy chicken.
Xia Qinghe looked at Xiao Chu with a smile, and was extremely embarrassed: "I'm embarrassed, I'm going to go to town in the afternoon, and I'll buy some pork and come back then." ā
She took Zhu Xiaochang to eat and drink, and now she is embarrassed that there are seven more people, these hares and pheasants can be sold, and the prices are not bad.
She has such a thick skin, and she eats Xiao Chu with so many people.
Xiao Chu glared at Xia Qinghe, embarrassed and something like that, he told Xia Qinghe not to say it before, he didn't feel anything, he was very polite every time Xia Qinghe was angry, besides, in his heart, what he was was Xia Qinghe's, so the thing was given to Xia Qinghe, whatever Xia Qinghe arranged, he just begged Xia Qinghe not to be so polite.
"I won't buy pork, it's so expensive for a catty, I hit game, you just take it and eat it, this doesn't cost money." His voice was faint.
Chu Shi laughed on the side and said, "No, it's not cost-effective for you to buy more, it's better to buy it directly in Xiao Chu's hands." ā
She is an understanding person, and she can see that Xiao Chu is interesting to Xia Qinghe.
Yuan also felt that it was not cost-effective to go to the town to buy pork, and echoed: "No, it's better to buy it in Xiao Chu's hands, how expensive the pork in the town is." ā
Xia Qinghe felt that this was good, so that she would not feel guilty herself, and she could kill two birds with one stone, she looked at Xiao Chu, but saw Xiao Chu raise her eyebrows and said: "If you go to the town in the future, you will make me a pot of bar, I don't have any other place to spend money, if you have any leftovers, you can buy a little more oil, salt, sauce and vinegar." ā
This is also done, Xia Qinghe knows Xiao Chu, and it is really like what Xiao Chu said, he has no place to spend money.
"Nacheng, in the future, I will guarantee you a pot of wine every day, and you can send me game every day. ā
Xiao Chu can't guarantee that there will be meat to eat every day, but it can still be guaranteed to have meat to eat every day: "Let's take turns with fish and game, and it's a little greasy to eat one kind all the time." ā
Xia Qinghe thought this was good, she glanced at Zhu Xiaochang and said: "After Aunt Chu has dried the starch in the afternoon, you will guard it outside, I have to go to the town with Xiao Chu, and the starch that was dried before will be sold." ā
Zhu Xiaochang hurriedly agreed, he wanted to practice archery now, he could practice it when he took care of the starch, and when he was good at archery, he could also hunt, and when the time came, he could also help Xiao Chu reduce his burden.
After eating, Xia Qinghe cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and Xiao Chu helped carry the two wooden barrels to the river.
Xiao Chu put the wooden barrel on the boat and then helped Xia Qinghe get on the boat, the two barrels of starch added up are not light, and he is also happy for Xia Qinghe: "Qinghe, you have worked hard for so long and can finally see the harvest." ā
Xia Qinghe raised his eyebrows, and his mood was also very good, and he felt very satisfied when he touched the two wooden barrels with his hands: "I've been busy with this recently, but fortunately, I saw the silver money today, but it cost me a lot of silver recently, and the silver money that the Ganoderma lucidum sold has cost several taels." ā
She looked a little sad, and it felt really bad to make ends meet, but fortunately, she could have a lot of silver after selling these two barrels, and she felt a little better.
Xiao Chu looked at Xia Qinghe gently, propped up the boat and said, "If you don't have enough silver, I can lend it to you, I don't spend much on weekdays, so I still have some silver saved." ā
He was afraid that Xia Qinghe would worry about the money and worry about these things.
Soon arrived in the town, Xia Qinghe and Xiao Chu went to the Ruxiang Restaurant, today is not a market, so the business of the Rue Xiang Restaurant is particularly light.
Liao Yunxiang was settling accounts behind the counter, and noticed that someone was coming in, and when she looked up, she saw Xia Qinghe standing by the counter.
"Qinghe, you're here. ā
Her eyes fell on Xiao Chu's two wooden barrels, and she hurriedly stepped forward to open the lid: "You came in time, I gave the starch you sent last time to the shopkeeper of the grocery store, and he sent it to the county seat, and the response was very good, I was worried that you didn't send it, how many catties are these two buckets?"
Xia Qinghe roughly weighed it at home, so he still had a good idea in his heart: "About fifty catties, there are so many the day after tomorrow, the weather is good in the past two days, so it is more convenient to dry." ā
Liao Yunxiang asked the shopkeeper to come over and weigh her, and she herself went to get the money: "By the way, a few days ago, someone came to inquire about the starch purchase, and I thought that it was your side that leaked the news, and someone was also talking about this idea, but I refused." ā
Xia Qinghe frowned and said, "Do you know what the other party's surname is?"
Liao Yunxiang shook her head, and the shopkeeper on the side answered: "It's from Goujia Village, surnamed Gou." ā
Yes, Xia Qinghe instantly thought of who it was, and she let out a long sigh and said: "I know who it is, the daughter-in-law of the former village chief of our village, I guess it's greedy to see me making money." ā
