Chapter 491: Chinese Wizard
Before Marx could get his hands ready, Motta III came with his father, Motta II, and not empty-handed, with two cleaned bottles of peanut butter.
In order to show his mystery, when Hong Tao cupped the neck of Mota II, he deliberately chanted in Chinese in his mouth, what a heavenly spirit and a spirit of the earth, Taishang Laojun is about to show his spirit, anyway, as long as they don't understand.
"Amazing! It's amazing! My shoulders are much better, at least they can be lifted! Schweed, I suggest you try it too. Marx was turning his arm back and forth, and at the same time excitedly communicating with his brother, not caring at all about the bruise left on his back in two large circles, because Master Hong said that this bruise was the culprit that made him hurt, and now it has been pulled out, and it will naturally dissipate in a few days.
Schweide didn't listen to his brother this time, insisted on refusing to go cupping, and wondered whether Hong Tao had cured his brother's illness, in his opinion, Hong Tao probably used a method to confuse his brother, because he didn't understand, two bottles can be sick, so what's the use of doctors?
A few minutes later, Schweeder was hit again, and Motta II's neck was healed, although it still hurt a little, but at least it was able to turn back and forth, and the pain disappeared a lot.
"I'm going to China to study Chinese medicine!" This is a sentence that Marx repeated to Hong Tao in the next few hours, and he even asked Hong Tao about the housing prices and rental prices in Beijing, and it seems that the old man is really hopeless.
After pretending to be a master of traditional Chinese medicine, the time is almost 11 o'clock, let's make do with lunch, continue the German sausage sandwich, plus egg and cucumber slice soup, if you want to eat good, you have to wait for the evening, because you have to invite Mota's family, and they are blessed. You can eat called flower chicken at night.
At noon, 2 carp were caught, this time Hong Tao did not move at all, just carried the camera to record the whole process of Wang Jian lifting the rod, slipping fish, to the most lull after the process of copying fish, because Wang Jian and Hong Tao are currently on duty, the Marx brothers can only watch from the side, Hong Tao originally wanted to give the duty card to one of their brothers, but the two of them despite the hot eyes and itchy hands, or resolutely rejected this suggestion of violating the rules of the game.
The largest of these two carps weighed more than 7 catties. The small one also weighs 4 pounds, which is fully in line with the rules of the competition and can be counted into the competition results, so that the results of the combined fishing team have climbed a little higher again, and since the second fishing team has not caught a new catch, the first place position of the combined fishing team is more stable.
Due to the preparation for the evening party, Hong Tao took a short nap and began to prepare dinner from more than 3 o'clock. In accordance with the currently existing conditions. Hong Tao arranged a dinner menu, the main course was the three chickens called flowers, and there was a dish of mutton with cumin, but cumin was not bought here. Only use onions instead.
Germans like to eat pork knuckle, Pan specially bought 2 big elbow sticks from the town when preparing the ingredients, and Hong Tao decided to give them sauce and then serve them as a cold dish. You can cut a little bit of each meal and eat it with garlic, vinegar, ginger, and light soy sauce.
The rest is some seasonal vegetables, and of course, scrambled tomatoes with eggs and shredded pork. These two dishes are very popular with foreigners, and Hong Tao thinks that the main reason is that these two dishes are sweet, and Europeans and Americans like sweets.
Originally, Hong Tao planned to steam or stew a fish, but Marx and Schweeder were adamantly opposed, and given their strong fear of fish bones, the dish was not made.
When the three chickens were slaughtered, Hong Tao and Wang Jian deliberately went deep into the grass to avoid being seen by the Marx brothers. However, when they were doing boiling water to remove chicken feathers, the two brothers couldn't help but peek at Hong Tao's side, and when they saw that Hong Tao had turned a chicken into bare in a blink of an eye, as well as the wound on the chicken's neck, and then looked at Hong Tao's eyes.
After cleaning up the three chickens, stuffing their bellies with ingredients, then using a bag of tin foil, and then digging some loess mud on it, it is basically done. But there is no firewood here, let alone a bonfire, which is difficult to stop Hongtao, it doesn't matter if there is no firewood, don't we have charcoal, still use it.
Use the pit where the loess mud is dug to put three big mud balls into the pit, then cover it with a layer of soil, and then pile the charcoal on it, ignite it with a gas spray gun, don't care, let the charcoal burn slowly by itself, when you want to eat it, dig the mound again, knock open the mud ball that has been burned into clay pottery, the chicken inside is still hot, and the moisture is well maintained, fragrant and tender.
In addition, the chicken blood Hongtao who is controlled when killing chickens does not intend to waste, put them in a stainless steel basin, and then steam them in the pot, take them out and cut them into small squares, put in the shallots and stir-fry them slightly after boiling the pot, put the blood tofu in, pour some cooking wine or foreign wine, it is a good stir-fried chicken blood tofu, if there can be tofu better, also cut the tofu into squares of the same size, put the tofu first, and then let the blood tofu when it is almost cooked, so that the red and white are distinct, both delicious and good-looking.
As for whether Europeans eat chicken blood, Hong Tao didn't bother to ask, he ate if he liked, he didn't like to eat himself and Wang Jian, in fact, if you don't tell them what it is, they eat it deliciously, and they have to be fooled when they should be fooled, which also involves no religious beliefs.
When it was time for dinner, Pan also came in a motorboat, and the substitute did not play as a substitute but as a substitute for dinner. Only the Motta III and Mota II father and son and a little girl came, and the old Motta and the daughter-in-law of the Mota II stayed in the camp to look after the family. And they didn't come empty-handed, and they brought a big pot of Mexican food.
Needless to say, this dish is known by Hong Tao, beef stew!
However, their beef stew is slightly different from ours, first of all, the piece is large, and the beef is cut larger than a matchbox, and it is square; Then there are the side dishes that are quite scary, all of which are round and bulging peppers; The most beautiful thing is the taste, which is really heavy, sour, sweet and spicy. It's good to eat with it, Wang Jian was very curious and ate a small chili, but the other dishes were never touched again, the two bowls of rice were dried up, and then he went to the side and stuck out his tongue to continue drinking water.
It turned out that the mother of Motta III was a Mexican-American, and his home was in Laredo, Texas, a port city close to the Mexican border, just across the Rio Grande from Mexico.
The old Mota family is a rancher, to the generation of Mota III is already the 8th generation, because of the close proximity to the river, so the old Mota has liked fishing since he was a child, and then his son, grandson, granddaughter have also been trained to be fishermen, not only fishing in North America, but also went to Europe to fish, it is said that there is one number in Texas fishermen, and has won a lot of awards.
I was going to have dinner and sit together to talk about the sky and drink tea, but before the water could be boiled, it rained in the sky, so everyone immediately scattered and ran back to their tents to endure it. Hong Tao was very suspicious that Pan had touched his back by himself, and before the meal was completely finished, she contacted the speedboat to pick her up, and there were still stars hanging in the sky at that time, if it wasn't for some special functions, who could judge so accurately!
The rainy night here is very uncomfortable, the temperature is not high, and it is by the water, it is still raining in the sky, and the cool air drills into the human body from various gaps, at the beginning Hong Tao is still wearing shorts and short sleeves, ten minutes later it becomes long pants and long sleeves, and after ten minutes the raincoat and rain pants are also worn, but it is still not warm.
"Lao Wang, are you cold?" Hong Tao curled up and hid under his pergola.
"Nonsense, we both wear the same clothes, why don't I be cold if you're cold?" Wang Jian and Hong Tao have a virtue, with long coats and trousers inside, and raincoats and rain pants on the outside.
"Why don't we go catch some shrimp and drink two sips, and cut some elbows, the more you don't move this day, the more uncomfortable it becomes." Hong Tao felt that he had to find something to do for himself, or he would freeze out and get sick.
"I think I ate a chili pepper for dinner, and I didn't eat anything, these foreigners are like garbage cans, and they don't leave vegetable soup, it's really immoral!" Wang Jian also seemed a little hungry, and raised his hands and feet in favor of Hong Tao's suggestion. (To be continued......)
