Chapter 194

"Sister-in-law?" Originally, Li Zhengyuan wanted to raise his head, but when he heard Li Junran say this, he shrank back again. After a while, Li Xu really appeared at the gate of the courtyard. Li Xu's family came over on purpose, and it was not a big deal, it was nothing more than to invite the seventh uncle and ancestor to go to the second room to have a homely meal together at night.

Before Li Xu entered the house, Li Junran took a detour and walked out from the other side of the room.

"Mother."

"Liu'er, where is your father?" Li Xu didn't see Li Zhengming, so he asked casually.

"Dad is still at the fifth grandfather's place (being criticized)." Li Junran replied with a smile, "Mother, Grandpa Fang Cai said that I will eat here at night." ”

"Ah...... But the family is almost ready. ”

"It's okay, it's a big deal to cook it and bring it over and add vegetables."

"That's fine. By the way, Liu'er, what kind of chicken did you say you wanted to do before......"

"Called Flower Chicken?"

"yes, that's the chicken ......"

Li Xu's original voice was not loud, and there was some distance between them, and finally the sound of Li Junran and Li Xu's conversation intermittently came into the kitchen, and reached Pan Luhua's ears, and it directly changed its taste. Pan Luhua, who was already displeased with Li Junran, only listened to a few sounds, especially when she heard Li Junran's sentence "X Flower Chicken", she was instantly angry.

"Flowers, what's going on?" Mrs. Pan, who had been listening to the movement outside with her ears pricked up, actually knew that Li Xu was standing at the gate of the courtyard a long time ago, but Mrs. Pan was not in a hurry to leave the kitchen. The reason why she did this was nothing more than to dry up the Li Xu family, and to let the Li Xu family understand, don't think that her man, the stupid big man named Li Zhengming, was inherited from this family from the genealogy. It's really this family.

To say, this Mrs. Pan and her daughter-in-law Xiao Pan have an understanding of certain things. It really verifies the sentence "It's not a family, you don't enter a family", and it's not wrong for people to aggregate and group groups.

"Grandma. That Nanaliu bullied me just now, saying that I was a 'Luhua chicken'. Brother Yuan and his mother heard it. Pan Luhua was very aggrieved to sue Mrs. Pan, not only sued Li Junran, but also brought her own mother-in-law, Xiao Pan, by the way.

"You're a dead man, Hua'er let a little girl outside bully, and there was no reaction?" Mrs. Pan couldn't help but raise the volume of her speech, and while twisting Xiao Pan's arm very easily, she said angrily, "The old woman didn't know what she had done at the beginning......

Mrs. Pan habitually began to count down the little Pan family again. Who ever thought that he had only counted a few words, and he had to interrupt because he heard Li Zhengyuan's voice outside.

"Uncle, you're also at home."

Li Xu's didn't have much surprise at Li Zhengyuan who came out of the backyard, even if he had only seen him more than two hours ago, Li Xu's heart only thought that Li Zhengyuan rushed home in advance because he knew that his little girl had returned to Lijiatun.

"Sister-in-law, I just came home." Li Zhengyuan turned his head to the side and shouted in the direction of the main house. "Grandpa, sister-in-law is here."

Li Zhengyuan deliberately raised the volume of his speech, which was nothing more than a reminder to the Pan family who were still nesting in the kitchen at this time and refused to come out.

Originally, Li Zhengyuan just wanted to buy a woman who could cook, and help him cook and clean up the house on weekdays. Take care of your grandfather's daily life. The reason why Mrs. Pan's family was later bought was mainly because they were pitiful. Who would have thought, this old and young small. But none of them were at ease, and each knew more than the other before him. Li Zhengyuan is no one's fault. The blame is only on him for staying at the grocery store in the town most of the day, even if he returns to Tunzi every once in a while. It's also early and late.

"Come on, come on, why is her sister-in-law here?" After Mrs. Pan heard Li Zhengyuan's voice, she immediately patted the ashes on her clothes and explained to Li Zhengyuan with a smile, "The old woman just heard something, and I thought that after I was busy with the work at hand, I would come out to take a look." ”

The implication is to blame Li Xu for not coming early or late, but to disturb her Pan Pozi when she is too busy to touch the ground. So it's not the right time for you Li Xu's family to come, so it's no wonder that she, the master, didn't say hello.

Li Zhengyuan's eyes flickered, and he began to think about whether to sell this Mrs. Pan's family when he turned around, and then find a new one with good character.

"Sister-in-law, grandpa is still waiting, let's go in first."

The Seventh Uncle Ancestor seemed to have been paying attention to the movement in the courtyard, and before Li Zhengyuan's words fell, the window on the side was pushed open. The Seventh Uncle Ancestor poked his head out of the house.

"Akiko's daughter-in-law is here."

"Old Zu'er, my mother asked me to invite you to her for dinner in the evening. My mother also specially cooked your favorite braised pork, and specially selected the best pork belly. ”

Hearing that there was braised pork, the Seventh Uncle Ancestor's originally somewhat cloudy eyes immediately lit up, but in a blink of an eye, he shook his head again and again: "Daughter-in-law Mingzi, let your mother-in-law stop being busy, and eat at the old man's place tonight." ”

Li Junran mentioned this matter to Li Xu's family just now, and when he saw that the seventh uncle ancestor spoke in person, he didn't refuse again, but responded with a smile: "That's okay, I'll go home and tell my mother right away." After a while, wait for the braised pork stewed in the pot to be ready, and then bring it over and add another dish. When she came back just now, Liu Er shouted what kind of flower chicken she wanted to eat. ”

"Mother, it's called Hua Ji."

Li Xu glanced at Li Junran dotingly, and continued to speak: "The Luhua chicken was already slaughtered when I came, and I will also bring it over to add a dish after a while." ”

After hearing this, the seventh uncle nodded again and again and said yes, and when he was happy, he told Li Zhengyuan to remember to call Li Zheng, the third grandfather of the Li family, and the fifth grandfather together, and drink two cups at night. Li Zhengyuan has no reason not to agree.

"Liu'er, are you here to accompany Lao Zu'er or go home?" Li Xu didn't stay at Seventh Uncle Zu for long because he had to go back to deal with what his little daughter said about flower chicken. Before leaving, Li Xu asked Li Junran, who was whispering to Li Zhengyuan, if he would go home with her.

Li Zhengyuan somehow thought of the bulky wine jar that Li Junran had just asked him to get at home, didn't he say that he specially brought it over for cooking. Li Zhengyuan was a little curious about what Li Junran was going to do, so he took the initiative to help Li Junran refuse Li Xu's request to go home with her.

"Sister-in-law, go back first. Let Liu Er talk to her grandfather. ”

"It's fine. Liu'er, you can talk more to Lao Zu'er here. My mother will go back first, and I will come back later. Li Xu didn't think much about it, so he went back to the second room.

After Li Xu's left, Li Junran turned his head to look at Li Zhengyuan in confusion, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Uncle, Liu Er still has to go back to help her mother make that flower chicken." ”

"Don't be busy with what you call the flower chicken. Liu'er, have you forgotten? Didn't you bring an empty jar of wine just now, didn't you say you were going to make something delicious that you had never seen before? ”

"What's delicious?" The Seventh Uncle Ancestor who was playing on the side was also interested.

"Grandpa, you don't know. When Liu Yatou came over just now, she hugged a big empty wine jar in her arms, saying that she was going to use this empty wine jar to make a delicacy that you have never seen before. ”

As soon as he heard about the food, and it was something he had never seen before, the Seventh Uncle Ancestor's interest became even stronger. But when he looked up at Li Junran, he couldn't believe his little grandson's words.

"Stinky boy, Miss Liu is only a few years old this year, and this person is not as tall as the stove."

Li Zhengyuan saw that Li Junran kept his head down and kept silent, and seeing that his own grandfather was so suspicious, he hurriedly approached Li Junran, lowered his voice and said: "I said Liu'er, you really can't do it, make Uncle happy." ”

Li Junran, who was distracted, came back to his senses, and suddenly looked up to see Li Zhengyuan's big face that was very close. Li Junran instinctively raised his hand and patted it, and at the same time took several steps back, and said angrily: "Uncle, why are you so close?" ”

Li Zhengyuan covered his sore nose and spoke with a distinctly nasal voice.

"Mud doesn't mean to take the wine jar to group dishes."

"Uncle, are you okay, Liu Er didn't mean it."

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Zhengyuan waved his hand, seeing that Li Junran was cautiously apologizing to himself, even if he was not in front of his grandfather, he couldn't worry too much about a junior. "By the way, what raw materials do you need for that dish Liu Er, I'll help you see if there are any at home."

Li Zhengyuan took Li Junran to the cellar where the grain was stored in the backyard.

"Uncle, it's not much of a practical thing."

At the beginning, Li Zhengyuan really thought that he didn't need many ingredients when he heard Li Junran say this. But as time went by, after listening to Li Junran report the ingredients he needed one by one, Li Zhengyuan only had one thought left in his mind, it was difficult to cook these good things together. But when he heard Li Junran grinning and finally saying the words "just kidding", Li Zhengyuan really wanted to clean up the cheap niece in front of him.

Li Junran was really not joking at first, and there were indeed dozens of raw materials needed for that traditional Buddha jumping over the wall. What sea cucumbers, abalone, shark fins, dried scallops, fish lips, turtle skirts, deer tendons, pigeon eggs, duck gizzards, fish maw...... It can be described as a large collection of sea, land and air that fly in the sky and run on the ground.

As for the home-cooked ones, it is much simpler, winter bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, shrimp meat, scallops, quail eggs, shark fins, abalone and other materials are put into the crockpot in order, and the crockpot is sealed and steamed for two hours, that is, one hour. But even the simplest ones are hard to come by.

"Liu'er, did you learn this dish in Chengfu?"

"Yes." This time, Li Junran really didn't lie. The second lady of Cheng Mansion once showed her hand on a whim, and took the opportunity of a banquet for relatives and friends to command the chef of the big kitchen to try it out, and Xiao Qiliu was still alive at that time. Cheng Yuyao relied on this dish to make Cheng Qingye have more face in front of his relatives and friends who came to Cheng's Mansion as guests.

"Don't worry, uncle. We make it simplest. (To be continued......)
