Chapter 117: Hot Money
Qi Qizhu didn't say it, Qi Jiuli didn't say it, after all, it was the business of the two of them, and she didn't let herself be in the middle, in case it didn't work out in the future, she also helped out, let it be, this marriage is also fate, there really is, and the two of them can solve it themselves.
"Brother, what do they say about uncle and aunt?" Qi Jiuli changed the topic and asked Qi Qizhu about inviting Qi He and Feng Diehua's family to dinner.
"Uncle agreed in one bite." Qi Qizhu replied, "Auntie is a little afraid to speak, it seems that the uncle's residual power is still there." ”
Qi Jiuli smiled, "Then I'll start preparing the ingredients now, and I'll tidy them up at night." ”
"I'll help." Qi Qizhu followed, but he couldn't help but ask, "Is she okay?" Looking for me? ”
Qi Jiuli laughed for a while, and teased, "Who? ”
Then he looked abrupt, "Brother asked Sister Baishuang, anyway, my brother is still taking over the work of copying books in Ruyi's study, and you will ask in person when you meet it." ”
After Qi Jiuli finished speaking, he strode away, and assigned tasks to Qi Shixiang and Qi Shiyi in the courtyard.
Qi Qizhu touched his lips, a little hesitant in his heart, more annoyed, he took advantage of the girl, or was taken advantage of, but how to say that the girl's family suffered, hey, that person with a bad brain is really annoying.
Qi Jiuli took a look at the inventory at home, and also had an idea of what dishes to make, wash the pig's trotters, burn a firewood to roast the hairy parts of the pig's trotters, and then put them in the water, shave off the hair with a kitchen knife, and then hand them to Qi Qizhu and chop them into blocks with a machete.
Put the chopped pig's trotters into the clay pot, put two slices of ginger, put some salt and start stewing, stew until dinner, it must be soft and fragrant, and then put some green vegetables, it is a soup that is a big tonic.
The uncle's family, the uncle's family, plus their own four people, ten people sitting at the table plus a small doll, one table can't sit, so the meal has to be according to the weight of two tables.
Qi Jiuli has already thought of the menu, four hard dishes, pig's trotters and green vegetable soup, braised pork, bacon fried lettuce, scrambled eggs, and then add cold wild vegetables, cabbage stewed vermicelli, salt and pepper potatoes, don't be too rich, it's so good to eat during the Chinese New Year in this era.
The staple food Qi Jiuli thought about making Erhe noodles steamed buns and steamed sorghum sweet potato rice, Qi Jiuli thought about it and began to mix noodles and proof, sorghum sweet potato rice was washed and put in the big pot, and a bamboo grate was put on it, and the proofed steamed buns were put on one by one, and the lid was covered and the fire was burned.
Another stove Qi Jiuli is used to cook, I want to steam the potatoes, mash them, add some white flour and pepper and salt, and paste them after all the dishes are cooked.
At three o'clock in the morning, the two families of Qishan and Qihe came together, and the two families carried baskets, and Qishan saw his little brother taking the lead with a basket, and he felt a little comforted in his heart.
"Qi He, brother and sister, you are here." Qi Shan greeted with a smile.
"Big brother, sister-in-law." Qi He called people with a smile, and Feng Diehua also called people, and they were happy for a while.
"It's so fragrant, I don't know what Jiuli did, it makes people hungry when they smell it." Qi Yifei took the initiative to open the door, and closed the door only when his father and uncle and his family entered the courtyard.
"Meat, meat." Two-year-old Qi Wenshu kept his saliva and pointed to his little hand towards the kitchen in Ren Xue'er's arms, "Mother, meat, fragrant." ”
"Oh, our Wen Shu's nose is really powerful." Chi Lingmiao smiled and rubbed his grandson's head, "I'll be able to eat it later." ”
"Uncle, aunt, uncle, aunt, you go to the hall and sit, the meal is ready, you can start the meal." Qi Shixiang passed by everyone with a large pot of pig's trotter soup and greeted with a smile.
"Gollum-" Qi Wufu and Qi Liushun looked at the pig's trotter soup with some milky white and oily flowers, and couldn't help swallowing their saliva, they hadn't eaten meat for a long time, I really didn't expect such a good dish today.
When I arrived at the hall, I saw the braised pork on the table, my eyes were almost staring and I couldn't move, there were scrambled eggs, and even the vegetables smelled very fragrant.
"Wow, how did you prepare so many meals." Chi Lingmiao looked at the food on the two tables, and felt distressed for a while, "I have used all the eggs I have saved for so many days, and I still buy meat, not every year, nor when the farm is busy, what kind of meat do you eat, and you also make braised pork, which costs a few catties." ”
"Auntie, you can eat more later." Qi Jiuli winked at Chi Lingmiao, the uncle's family knew that Qi Jiuli was now working in Qiuwei Restaurant, and he usually had a lot of blessings for dinner, but he couldn't stand Chi Lingmiao's pain, and it didn't cost anything to say that Qiuwei Restaurant, and now this table is expensive.
"Okay, let's all sit down and eat, Qizhu and Basong are about to go to the exam, Wufu and Liushun have also been working outside, it's rare to get together, Jiuli has such a good meal, we big guys will make up for it." Qi Shan spoke, and the group all sat down, one table for men and one table for women, and then it was time to move chopsticks and make a sound of admiration.
"Jiuli, why is your craft suddenly so good." Feng Diehua's mouth was full of oil, but she still looked at Qi Jiuli, who was sitting next to her, and asked.
"Now I'm learning from the master to be a girl, and I'm also responsible for cooking, and this skill may have been exercised." Qi Jiuli said with a smile.
"No wonder, no wonder, the people in this town are willing to put more oil when they eat, it's so fragrant." Feng Diehua had a mouth full of food, and did not forget to nod her head in agreement.
The meal was eaten very harmoniously, and the table of meals was eaten very well, and even the soup at the bottom of the dish was all eaten with bibimbap, which made Qi Jiuli feel that this bowl did not need to be cleaned.
After the meal, Chi Lingmiao and Feng Diehua took the lead to help clean up, and after the waiter cleaned up, it was also dark.
Qi Shan took a red envelope to Qi Qizhu before leaving, and Qi He also took out a red envelope when he saw it, the two should have discussed it, and what they said was also to encourage Qi Qizhu to try.
Qi Qizhu thanked him and took it, and personally sent the person to the gate.
Qi Jiuli was a little surprised that his aunt did not refute it, and left calmly, it seems that his own table is very satisfying.
From Feng Diehua's praise during the meal, and the initiative to clean up after eating, in addition to the majesty of the uncle now, his own meals are also indispensable.
Qi Qizhu gave the red envelope to Qi Jiuli, Qi Jiuli opened it and looked at it, there were as many silver coins in the two red envelopes, both were two taels, Qi Jiuli was unexpected, and felt that it was reasonable, and his grandfather's family gave this number.
Uncle should have known that he had discussed it with his uncle, this time the uncle's family could come up with so much, and he was not dissatisfied, Qi Jiuli suddenly felt that the money in his hand was a little hot, so the time for the uncle's family to join the charcoal burning had to be advanced, otherwise the heart would be weak.
