"You can't eat so much at noon, what to eat first? You've decided, right? Also, how do you like to eat it? The second aunt asked.

Chu Jiaqiang pondered for a moment and said, "If the river crab is kept for the night, let's eat yellow eel and shrimp first, right?" Got fans? If you have it, you can make a fan eel, which is very good. Let's make shrimp in salt water! The taste is also okay. ”

After speaking, Chu Jiaqiang also went to help, and it was necessary to remove the bones to make eel silk eel slices. It is also very simple to remove the bones of the yellow eel, put the yellow eel in a bucket, add some salt, cover it with a bamboo basket, pour boiling water into the bucket, and scald the yellow eel to death. When the eel's mouth is open and the eel's body is rolled up, you can add cold water until it is warm. Then use a knife made of bamboo slices to cut off the eel's belly, and then cut off the back of the eel on both sides, and peel off the eel's backbone and the internal organs in the belly.

It's traditional, but it's effective.

The practice of vermicelli eel is not very difficult, the vermicelli is washed and soaked and drained. Add soy sauce to the eel flakes, mix well, soak in the utensil, remove and drain the oil. Put the green onion and ginger slices in a utensil, heat and stir-fry with vegetable oil until fragrant. Add refined salt, sugar, pepper, Shao wine, and sesame oil to taste. Then add the vermicelli and oiled eel slices, cook and you're done.

It is easier to wash shrimp in salt water, and it will be clean after washing it with water a few more times. The surface of this transparent shrimp is not like that of yellow eel, and it also has a layer of sticky substance.

The internal organs are not difficult to remove, use a knife to cut the back of the shrimp, and then remove the shrimp line, or if you want to keep the whole body, use a toothpick to pick up the two ends of the shrimp line in the second part of the tail and the first part of the head, and then you can pull it out, so that the shrimp line is complete.

After cleaning, bring water to a boil in a pot, add ginger slices, green onion knots, cooking wine, 2 teaspoons of salt and simmer for two minutes. After two minutes, pour in the clean shrimp and cook on high heat for 3 to 4 minutes to remove. It's nice to dip some vinegar when eating. This dish is probably the best dish for housewives, and it is very simple and delicious.

The second aunt asked Chu Jiawan to go to the vegetable garden to pick two loofahs, cut off the edges of the loofahs, and then scald them with lean meat, which also tasted very good.

Everyone ate this meal very appetizingly, and Ye Caiping couldn't help but think: Life in the countryside is not bad now! Eat better than in the city. Although there are hotels everywhere in the city, there are so many dishes in it that you are dazzled, and the chef's skills are good, but those are all enjoyed by money, and how many people who go out to work can be blessed to enjoy?

Besides, the dishes in the hotels in the city are all made of a lot of ingredients to have that taste, how can these farm dishes be authentic? Ye Caiping glanced at Chu Jiaqiang, and saw that he ate faster than anyone else, and secretly said No wonder this guy didn't want to leave when he came back, it must have something to do with the food here.

After eating, the fifth uncle came again, and the two came to the reservoir again.

"Construction will start tomorrow, and the location is as you said. The river beach on this side of the reservoir is here, and the island is at the end of the big banyan tree, and then it goes straight to the past. That's fine, right? The fifth uncle pointed to three positions.

Chu Jiaqiang nodded: "No problem, I designed a simple rendering, Fifth Uncle, you take a look, press this, okay?" When Chu Jiaqiang was in college, he also studied some architectural design, and now he has also shown up.

The fifth uncle took it and took a look, it was a three-dimensional drawing, which indicated various scales. He then smiled and said to Chu Jiaqiang: "You kid don't learn architecture, it's a waste." That's the best, with this drawing, even if someone else doesn't have my command, someone else can do it. Okay, I'll keep the drawings, and I'll make it look good for you. ”

The fifth uncle rolled up the drawings, and then said, "By the way, we have to pull the gravel back." Xiaoyi has to work hard today, there is no gravel in our town, it is a little far, and it may be dark after he finishes pulling the reinforced concrete. So it's better to pull a cart of gravel back overnight, and you don't have to wait tomorrow. Sand is easy to do, local materials, and the sand here can also be used. ”

Chu Jiaqiang shook his head: "Let's go outside and pull the sand!" The sand can't be moved, and I have another use. Anyway, it's not a day off, and tomorrow I worship God, and everyone will just start with the meaning. ”

The fifth uncle didn't understand Chu Jiaqiang's behavior, but Chu Jiaqiang was the boss, so he said whatever he wanted!

"Is there anything else to prepare?" Chu Jiaqiang asked.

It is not easy to drive piles by the river, the groundwater next to the riverbed is very strong, and the pumping machine must not be missing.

"If you have time in the afternoon, you can just pull the wires and come over, and I'll have the rest ready." We don't have those tools in our village, but I borrowed them from somewhere else yesterday. Tomorrow they will be delivered on time, so you don't have to worry about it. Remember, the power of the wire must be high, otherwise you may not be able to stand it. The fifth uncle reminded.

Chu Jiaqiang nodded, and the two talked about some details. Chu Jiaqiang went to the town again, bought a wire with relatively large electric power, and when he came back, he disconnected the electric switch of the old house, and then pulled the wire. This thing is not difficult for him, and the previous physics was not learned in vain.

The second uncle also came to help, carrying a few big bamboo poles and erecting a big bamboo pole every fifty meters. This kind of bamboo pole is as thick as a thigh, it is hemp bamboo, and many of them are used to pull wires.

And Chu Jiawan and Ye Caiping also came to join in the fun, but they helped more and more. The wires that were originally hung on the bamboo pole hook were taken down by them in a hairy way, and in the end, they saw that Chu Jiaqiang's face was black, so they stepped aside to be an audience.

Without the two guys who got in the way, this time it went much smoother.

"Let's go to the reservoir and it's a lot more fun." Chu Jiawan suggested.

The two then ran to the reservoir and saw a large reservoir with sparkling blue waves, a small island in the middle complementing each other, and a high mountain on the other side, reflected in the reservoir, the scenery was quite beautiful.

"Your brother is going to build a rope bridge here?" Ye Caiping also suddenly understood Chu Jiaqiang's intentions, and secretly said that this guy really dared to do it. It seems that going back to the countryside is really not an escape, but something to do.

He didn't know that in fact, Chu Jiaqiang was not for that action, just for the convenience of cultivation, on the other hand, he liked a leisurely life. Life is in a hurry, and it's really not worth running around in the city for money and for a house all your life.

"Hmmm! Opposite is my brother's fruit grove, which has just grown a lot of fruits, some of which may be eaten next year. On the river beach behind us, he planted a large field of daylily, and when the time comes, it will be even more beautiful. Chu Jiawan also admires her brother very much, who has the courage to give up a high-paying job in the city and come back to do this kind of thing?

Ye Caiping was silent, and she already understood in her heart that Chu Jiaqiang seemed to be preparing to take root here, and it was impossible to go outside with her. If the two want to be together, she must give up her life in the city, return to this kind of countryside, and ask herself if she can do it? For a while, she was also a little confused, conflicted, and difficult to choose!
