Chapter 24 Trattoria

After the fish soup was ready, Zhang Tao made two more dishes, one was to fry the fish pieces and fry them with chili peppers and celery. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoOne is stir-fried spinach, which is their dish for a family of five tonight. At this time, Zhang Tao's grandfather and grandmother came over with a bowl, they came to Zhang Tao's house to watch TV, and by the way, they brought Zhang Tao some fried small crucian carp, this fried small crucian carp is fried with salt, and it can be eaten directly after frying, which is very fragrant and very good.

Zhang Tao remembered that his favorite thing in his previous life was to eat this, and the fried small fish at home were often eaten by him. Zhang Tao's grandparents came over at the right time, and although they had dinner, Zhang Cuihua still filled a bowl of fish soup for each of them.

At this time, Wang Zhongqiu's grandmother also brought Wang Zhongqiu to Zhang Tao's house to sit down, and by the way, she talked to Zhang Cuihua about joining the party, and Zhang Cuihua filled them with two bowls of fish soup. As if they had said yes, there were just two people in the village who came over to watch TV, and they happened to eat together, and the pot of fish soup stewed a lot anyway.

Tonight is a bit special, because it took a little time to deal with those fish, and Zhang Tao's family had already eaten at this time. Because some people come to watch TV, so their family meals are eaten before the feature film is staged, otherwise others come over to watch TV and they are very embarrassed to eat at home, and it is not so rich to greet others, and it is embarrassing not to entertain it.

After taking the fish soup bowl handed over by Zhang Cuihua, several people didn't pay much attention to it at first, but just politely. However, after two sips, they felt that this fish soup was very different, special fresh, and delicious. Even the director of the old women's federation, who would go to the city for a big meal from time to time, couldn't help but praise after taking two sips: "This fish soup is the best fish soup I have ever tasted, what is the name of this dish?" ā€

"Live water fish, my mother said this dish is called live water fish." Zhang Tao saw Zhang Cuihua's hesitation and immediately said it first, Zhang Cuihua hesitated and didn't know what the name was, and she was still hesitating whether she should say that this soup was made by Zhang Tao.

"Auntie's skills are getting better and better, and the pig blood soup I cooked before is also very delicious, I think my aunt can go to the town to open a restaurant, and the business must be very good." It was a person in Zhang Tao's village who said this, although Zhang Tao's mother was a little younger than him, but she couldn't stand up to her high seniority, so most people were called Aunt Zhang Cuihua.

"Not to mention the town, you can go to the city for this craft, these two dishes are much better than those in the city restaurants, and the taste is also good." The director of the old women's federation also answered with a smile at this time, she tasted the taste of the other two dishes under Zhang Cuihua's warm greeting just now, which was much more delicious than what she had eaten in the city, and it looked good, she really didn't expect Zhang Cuihua to have such a hand.

"I have time to do that, and I can't finish the work at home." Zhang Cuihua was praised by these people and immediately smiled, although these were not made by her, but she was not ready to say that these dishes were made by Zhang Tao. Zheng Hu on the side also felt that this dish was better than what he made in the restaurant in the south, and he had now become numb to all the performances of his youngest son.

It's a pity that there is no one in their family to help them do things, plus they don't have much capital, and this dish is made by Zhang Tao, otherwise he would really take his wife and children to find a place to open a restaurant or something. It's better at home, there are small restaurants at the entrance of many factories in the south, and the business is good, and I feel that it is much better than working for the dead wage.

A large pot of fish soup was quickly eaten and there were not many people left, but there were not many people eating the meal. The soup was drunk for a taste, and they all came over after dinner. But the funny thing is that these people don't eat fish heads, it is estimated that those fish heads in their eyes have no meat, and they don't taste interesting, just cheap Zhang Tao. He likes to eat fish heads, one person put several large pieces of fish heads in a bowl, and then one person pulls and pulls all the food, the taste feels very cool, and the fish head is a good thing.

However, these people just talked about opening a restaurant, which made Zhang Tao hearted. It's just that now is not the time, waiting for the economy to be tense in a few years. At that time, because of the recession of the coal mine in the town, many workers had little money to go to the town's restaurants to eat, and then several restaurants in the town could not be opened, and Zhang Tao would be able to have an idea.

At that time, the price of transferring a shop was the cheapest, and it was relatively easy to get by. In fact, as long as those people persist for a little for two years, when the life of the people in the town improves, it will be very profitable to open a restaurant at the school gate, and because it is in the town, there are usually many people who go to the market, and the people who drive the market after life is good will also become reluctant to spend money.

In addition, many students' parents work outside because there is no one to cook for their children, so the school only provides white rice, and they have to bring their own vegetables to eat, which is very inconvenient. So they just paid some money for the children to eat at the restaurant in the town, and then they couldn't even find a place to open a restaurant. Zhang Tao hit this idea, by that time, his family's situation should be a lot better, then just buy the best place near the middle school and high school, so that when he goes to junior high school, he doesn't have to run home to eat, and he doesn't have to bring rice and that kind of fried dried vegetables to the dining hall, which is not nutritious and unpalatable.

The adults in the room were still chatting and watching TV. Zhang Tao rarely went to bed early today, and sat in the room, listening to them chatting about some trivial matters, and then found some useful information from the middle and slowly summed it up. Don't think much about investing too much, their family doesn't have so much money now, and some small investments or something can still be remembered.

The director of the old women's federation sat down after eating fish soup at Zhang Tao's house and left with Wang Zhongqiu with a flashlight, she just came over to complain that there was no problem with Zhang Cuihua's joining the party, as long as she passed a period of observation. However, she still hinted at Zhang Cuihua and asked Zhang Cuihua to fight for the captain of her team, and Zhang Tao's team leader in their village will leave at the end of next year, which is good for Zhang Cuihua.

Of course, these words were said by her pulling Zhang Cuihua aside, Wang Zhongqiu still thought about Zhang Tao's fish soup when he left, this should be the most delicious fish soup he has eaten since he was a child, you must know that his family conditions are much better than Zhang Tao's, it is normal to eat meat and fish from time to time, but the taste is too far from this fish soup tonight, so this guy is very worried.

Zhang Cuihua, the director of the old women's federation, told Zheng Hu when she was about to go to bed, and Zheng Hu fell silent after hearing it. He is not against his wife's entry into D, but he is thinking about what happened to him. His conditions are actually better than Zhang Cuihua, he really graduated from high school, although he caught up with the special period at that time, and later rarely went to class and just played sports. But as far as the diploma is concerned, it is still very high at this time, and now his wife, a woman who graduated from elementary school, seems to be better at home than himself, a high-ranking intellectual who works outside, which makes him a little depressed and thinks more. However, he did not discourage his wife's enthusiasm, after all, if the husband and wife are one, the wife's good life will also be better.

The next day is the day of the town's market, the general New Year's purchase of New Year's goods is to catch up on this day, the town's market is only open on the 369th day of the month, the 29th day of the year every family is going to celebrate the New Year, the New Year's goods are almost ready, naturally no one goes to the market, so the centralized procurement is on the 26th day of the year. Usually, Zhang Tao's family not only had to buy some melon seeds, peanuts and other snacks to entertain the guests who came to visit the New Year during the Spring Festival, but also to buy meat and fish. This year, their family saved on that, and they just had to buy some snacks.

The new clothes for the New Year have already been prepared, so there is no need to wait for this time to buy. And at this time, in fact, many people in the countryside bought some fabrics from the market by themselves, and then asked the village tailors to help make them, and they would not go to the town to buy those finished clothes at all. The two brothers Zhang Tao and Daniel Zhang's new clothes for the New Year this year are imitation military uniforms sewn with military green fabric, which is still quite popular in the past two years, and has a special spirit after wearing, which is a bit of a PLA uncle.

After returning from the market, Zhang Tao's family began to get busy, at this time a lot of things to be busy, the house to come to a big cleaning, all the corner furniture to clean again, this is called removing the old and welcoming the new, must be done in these days. Therefore, Zhang Tao's three brothers and sisters have to help the family sort out the things for the New Year.

Then there is the tofu making, the tofu in the countryside is all homemade, and there is also the glutinous rice cake used for the New Year, which can be used to return gifts and entertain guests. And at this time, there was no such thing as a refrigerator in the countryside, and only a few shops selling ice cream could be seen occasionally. Therefore, in order to last a long time, the dishes of the New Year will be fried in oil first, and the oil will be stopped. For example, meat, fish, chickens and ducks.

Later, the meat is the product after the oil pot, first blanch all the pork with hot water to remove the blood, and then put it in the cauldron to cook for a period of time, and then take out the meat after it is cooked, and put it aside to cool and then fry. Some of the remaining bones and broth are used to stew white radish.

This is the time when the children are happiest, because it is time to be able to eat large pieces of meat. At this time, when eating meat in the countryside, it was not like in later generations, and those who ate every day did not want to eat meat. The large pieces of lean meat and big bones that come out of the pot are the children's favorite, and they can be eaten with a little soy sauce, while the adults are busy with the meat while teasing their children like dogs, regardless of poverty or wealth, the New Year is full of joy.
