Chapter 16 The Little Sister Divides the Fish
Seeing that the father and daughter were almost talking, Deng Alian called her granddaughter into the kitchen, and there was a piece of meat on the board, estimated to be three catties.
"We went late, and the fat meat was almost sold, so I finally picked this fat and thin one!" Zhou Xiaomei is quite remorseful.
"Mother, I like to eat lean meat!" The fat is so greasy, Xu Hui really doesn't like to eat it!
Zhou Xiaomei, who was still a little annoyed just now, listened to her daughter's words, her brows relaxed, and she had a smile on her face.
"It's good if Huihui likes it, in the future, let's buy meat and try to pick fat and thin, the fat one boils oil, and the thin one is cooked for the children!" Deng Alian remembered that her granddaughter once said that she didn't like to eat fatty meat, and she mentioned it again today, and she remembered it in her heart.
Xu Hui asked them what about the fish they had simmered at noon? Deng Alian pointed to the stove, Xu Hui lifted the lid of the pot and saw that the five fish were in the pot, and looked down at the bottom of the stove, fortunately there was no fire.
"Milk, didn't we say it's good to eat grilled fish?" How is this still steaming!
"Your mother and I smell the fish very fragrant, thinking that it should be okay to eat it steamed, and if you bake it, you have to burn it outside, and it will be smoky!" Deng Alian said that she wanted to bend down and light the fire.
"Milk, milk, I want to eat grilled fish, I'll ask my father and second brother for help, can you just cook with my mother?" Xu Hui couldn't accept the operation of grilled fish to steamed fish.
If this request was made by someone else, Deng Alian would definitely not agree, and in the face of the little granddaughter, she couldn't say a word.
Xu Zhiyong set up a fire in the middle of the courtyard, Xu Hui asked the two brothers to find a few wooden sticks to build a shelf, and after about half an hour, the firewood turned into a charcoal fire, and Xu Hui instructed the brothers to make the fish as well.
After roasting for a while, the fragrance wafted out from the courtyard of the Xu family, and several children of the Cui family were lying on the wall and sniffing vigorously, Xu Hui told Brother Pan to bake it for them for a while.
Xu Jianlin simply didn't do anything, just squatted downwind and smelled the smell of grilled fish, Deng Alian asked his granddaughter how she got the fish today, and how it tasted so fragrant.
"I walked around the river and found a few small grasses, which smelled good, picked them off, wrapped them in a little salt, dipped them in soy sauce and put them in the stomach of the fish, and took out those leaves and threw them away when I left!" Xu Hui kept flipping the grilled fish, Zhou Xiaomei wanted to replace her, Xu Jianlin said that it would be fine soon, don't change people, in case the replacement is too hot or the flipping is not good, it's a pity that these fish are gone.
After a while, the fish was baked, and Xu Hui picked one up and held it up to the wall: "Brother Pan, come and eat fish!" ”
"Huihui, your grilled fish is so delicious!" Pan's brothers and sisters were reluctant to leave, and even her younger brother was taken out to smell the fish.
"Although this fish tastes good, children who are too young should eat as little as possible, one is because there are spines, and the grilled fish is more burnt and difficult to distinguish, and the meat of the grilled fish is harder, and it is not easy for children to digest!" Xu Hui said the pros and cons in advance, in case the Cui family fed the child and had a stomachache, don't say that she didn't remind her.
After thanking the Cui family, they took the fish given by Xu Hui into the house, and the six members of the Xu family divided four fish, and Deng Alian picked a big one for her granddaughter first.
Xu Hui washed it up, put her hands on her sleeves and said, "I'll share today's fish!" ”
Because Xu Jianlin is also a child, he gave him a part of the belly of a fish, and gave the tail and the fish and the other half of the fish to his father, and kept half of it for himself.
Deng Alian also gave the fish maw, the head and tail, and a small half of the fish to Xu Jianwen, and the other part to Zhou Xiaomei.
Xu Hui only got half of the fish, and she had to exchange the part with her for the more fish.
"I have a small amount of food, these are enough, don't throw away the fish head and fish bones, I'll make soup for everyone tomorrow morning." Hurry up and eat, it won't taste good when it's cold for a while! Xu Hui sat down and ate her half of the fish.
After eating, Xu Jianlin said: "It would be nice if I let my little sister cook every day!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Deng Alian and Zhou Xiaomei did it together, this time one of them twisted one of her ears, and Xu Jianwen raised his foot and kicked his younger brother's ass!
"How old is your little sister, you are embarrassed to say this, it's good to have food to eat, you still pick and choose!" Deng Ah Lian taught her grandson.
"Little sister, you see how pitiful I am, I made fish soup tomorrow morning, but I have to leave a bowl of it!" In Xu Jianlin's eyes, the family's love for him is manifested in "beating is kissing and scolding is love", but it is different from the expression of liking his sister, and there is no difference in essence.
"Good!" Xu Hui saw that the second brother was enjoying it, and she also extinguished the idea of pulling the rack, so she just let a few people digest the food, and she didn't follow it.
Xu Hui wanted to help wash the dishes, but Zhou Xiaomei sent her back to the house, and also made a basin of warm foot washing water: "Soak your feet, you go to bed early!" "Today I went out and cooked, and I grilled fish, and my daughter must be tired.
"Mother, you can also rest, I will do these things by myself after washing my face and feet, you are already very tired from working every day, don't always worry about me, I will take care of myself." Xu Hui said.
"How old are you, why do you speak so politely, you are the youngest child in the family, we don't hang on you, we don't hurt you, who do you hurt!"
It should be said that it is I who is grateful, although the Xu family is a little poor, there are so many excellent relatives, Xu Hui is quite satisfied with other aspects, and what touches her even more is the love of the whole family for the original owner, which is more precious than anything else.
Xu Hui washed her feet and lay down, waited until the surroundings were quiet, entered the space, circled around the twin trees, and shouted "hibiscus" twice, but no one answered, Xu entered the kitchen to continue making seasonings.
When I had dinner in the evening, I seemed to forget to ask about the market tomorrow, and it is estimated that my father and mother may not go, and I sold more than one or two silver today, and I don't know if my father and second brother will go fishing tomorrow.
The small fish I got back today has been packed out and kept to dry the fish or ground into powder and added to the seasoning, and then get some when there are mushrooms on the mountain in a few days, and add it to the seasoning in proportion to make the fresh monosodium glutamate.
Xu Hui kept in mind about the market at night, and got up early the next morning, and when she entered the kitchen, her grandmother had already pasted the cakes.
"I want to use fish head to make soup, I'm afraid I'll spoil things, since you're up, you come and I'll do it!" Deng Alian walked to the basin and washed her hands.
"Milk, don't we have a dish at home!"
"Yes, do you want to use it to make soup with fish heads? I'll go to the cellar and get it! ”
When Deng Alian took the dish back, Xu Hui had already put the fish head in the pot, put a little soup seasoning prepared last night, and ordered a drop of soup and spring water, and the aroma immediately filled the entire kitchen.
"Huihui really has a talent for cooking, such a little child, what do you do like anything!" Deng Alian sighed.
"Then I will often cook for you in the future, and when I am older, let's go to the market to set up a stall to sell wontons, fish soup and flatbread!" Xu Hui believes that the business must be good, at the beginning of the small profits but quick turnover, and then open a store when the market is opened and the store is famous!
