Chapter Twenty-Eight: Trying, Chooseing, Routine
By the faint light that came in from the window, Li sat on the edge of the kang, rubbing the hemp rope in his hand.
It was still early for breakfast, and Li planned to finish the hemp rope at hand before going to cook.
Before he could think about it, Yuan suddenly broke in.
While rubbing the hemp rope, Li glanced at Yuan who came in, lowered his head and said, "Second daughter-in-law, are you here?" ”
Yuan nodded when he heard this, but did not speak.
Li frowned and glanced at Yuan again.
As a result, she saw that Yuan was carefully putting down the back basket in her hand, followed a vigilant glance around the room, and then when she couldn't react, she came directly to her.
was stunned by Yuan's series of actions, and Li didn't even rub the hemp rope, and threw it directly to the side of the kang.
She turned sideways, staring at Yuan Shi who came to her with half-squinted eyes, and her tone was not good, "What's the matter, you just say it." ”
Sneaky and very good.
Yuan Shi smiled, licked her lips nervously, she half-hung her head, wrung her fingers with a cramped expression, and whispered, "Mother, there is something wrong, I pondered all night yesterday, and now I want to talk to you about ......"
Lee's ......
Li said in his heart, you said it!
It may be that Li's eyes are too explicit, and Yuan is not twisting, and hurriedly throws out the words she has prepared.
"Mother, I really didn't say it, the fish soup you made yesterday was really delicious, not to mention the fishy smell, it tasted fresh and fragrant."
"It's the best fish soup I've ever had in my life."
"The whole two large pots of fish soup have been eaten by our family."
"During these days, Shanchuan Lao Tong told me that the fish in the city is not easy to sell, the fish tastes fishy, the price is low, no one buys it, and it is not cost-effective."
"People spend money on fish, either to give milk to the women who have just given birth in the family, or to nourish the elderly and children in the family."
"There are many people who want to buy it, but because of the fishy smell of fish, no one is willing to spend money."
"But yesterday, the fish soup we made was not fishy."
"I thought, can we just try this method of making fish soup with selling fish."
"In the future, when our family sells fish, we will tell them how to make fish soup that is not fishy and delicious."
"In this case, our fish will not be sold."
“……”
Li listened to Yuan's words, first puzzled, and then suddenly realized.
Oh, yes!
The fish soup method is really good, why didn't she think of it.
Not to mention anything else, the fish soup made yesterday is indeed not fishy and delicious.
A large iron pot of fish soup went into their family's stomachs.
It's just that Li frowned, this thing is not easy to do!
That being said, it's true, but teaching others how to make delicious and fragrant fish soup is not something to be said simply.
And believe it or not, let's not talk about it, let's just say that although she cooked the fish soup yesterday, before the fish was put into the pot, it was all made by Erya.
Erya, a seven-year-old girl, knows a lot!
This pot of fish soup can be so delicious, I don't know if it was the blind cat who touched the dead mouse, or if there was really some luck in it.
What you can't get sure of has to be determined.
Thinking about this, Li's heart was cold again because of Yuan's words, she waved her hand and said, "Your method is not bad, but it is not guaranteed to be useful, don't tell others about this first, let me think about it, and then ponder." ”
If they really want to sell fish in this way, they will at least have to make a few more meals to taste it, and they have to make sure that it works anyway.
Otherwise, if the reputation is ruined, it will not be a matter of selling a few fish and getting a few copper plates to come back.
"Okay, I know this in my heart, what else do you have? If not, go get busy. ”
Li Shishen felt that the matter of fish soup still had to be pondered, as for Yuan,
"Didn't you say you were going to go up to the mountains to hunt? Don't miss the hour. ”
Li's words can be regarded as a reminder of Yuan.
Yuan nodded, "Mother, then I'll go first." ”
With a smile on her face, she picked up the basket next to her and turned around and went out.
Hanging the knots on the back of the basket, Yuan strode out of the yard.
The morning light is faint.
Yuan walked straight out of the gate, along the avenue at the door, towards the rolling hills ahead.
………
When Zhao Yu woke up, it was already bright outside the window.
Holding the quilt pressed on her body, Zhao Yu turned over directly, buried her head in the quilt and rubbed it comfortably, before she slowly came to her senses.
Closed his eyes and yawned, Zhao Yu let go of the quilt in his arms, stretched out his hands, stretched out his waist and sat up directly from the kang, by the way, because he slept all night, his body was a little sore.
It wasn't until she felt almost gone that she reached out and patted both sides of her cheek to clear herself up.
With the advantage of having a broken head, Zhao Yu has been very relaxed these days, and he doesn't have to get up from the kang early.
Zhao Yu was not used to such a day at first, but after a few days, she was completely corrupted.
Putting on the clothes on his body, Zhao Yu supported the edge of the kang with one hand and jumped off the ground.
Putting on cloth shoes, Zhao Yu went straight to the square table placed in the center of the room with a clear goal.
The table was about five feet long and wide, and it was not painted, and the table had preserved its original color, but it took too long, and the edges were shiny and a layer of pulp appeared.
This square table is still the furniture made by her grandfather Zhao Fuxiang when her father and mother got married, and the camphor wood box at the end of the kang, and the camphor wood cabinet on the side, which is a set.
At this time, there were two stoneware bowls and a rough saucer on the square table, which contained Zhao Yu's breakfast today.
Two palm-sized multigrain cakes, a bowl of cold egg water and half a plate of pickles.
The multigrain cake was left over from last night, the pickles were made by her grandmother, and the egg water was specially beaten by her grandmother, and a little brown sugar was put in it, so this bowl of egg water also has some beautiful light red, like rubies.
Zhao Yu supported the square table with both hands, arched his buttocks forward and retreated, and moved directly to the stool to sit down and eat.
The multigrain cake is made with fish soup, and there is the fragrance of fish soup in it, accompanied by sweet and silky egg water and salty and crispy pickles, Zhao Yu eats happily.
Eat all the food on the square table in three and two clicks.
Zhao Yu burped and went out with the clean dishes and chopsticks.
In the yard, several children of the family are hiding and playing under the pear tree.
The noise of children makes the yard full of life.
Li sat next to the well and washed the dirty clothes that Zhao Fuxiang had changed last night.
Turning his head, seeing Zhao Yu standing at the door with a bowl and stunned, Li hurriedly shouted.
Zhao Yu turned around and ran over with a bowl.
"Erya, give the bowl to the milk, you go and play with Wuya."
Zhao Yu's injuries are not yet healed, and Li doesn't need her to help with the work.
Taking the wooden basin that Zhao Yu put aside casually with the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, Li planned to clean up the clothes in his hand after washing them.
Listening to Li's words, Zhao Yu turned his head and glanced at Wuya and them, twisted his eyebrows and thought about it, but still squatted down directly, "Milk, I don't play." ”
The sun is full of sun, and there is no shade on the other side, so she doesn't go.
Li Shi felt strange, and said in his heart that this girl was really kowtowing her head and was a lot more stable, this was in the past, and it was estimated that she would have gone crazy to play.
"Okay, then you sit here, there's a stool, remember to stay away from the well."
"Uh-huh."
In this way, with Li's permission, Zhao Yu moved a small wooden stool and sat in front of Li, with his legs straight and his hands on his cheeks to look at her.
Li didn't care, what should he be busy with.
It wasn't until she washed the clothes in the wooden basin and washed the dishes and chopsticks out by the way that Li glanced at the honest Zhao Yu beside her and remembered what Yuan said in the morning.
With a thought in his mind, Li Shi put the wrung clothes on the hanger that was propped up, and at the same time said from Zhao Yu's mouth, "Erya, is the fish soup from yesterday delicious, do you want to continue drinking it today?" ”
"Think," Zhao Yu listened, and his little head nodded fiercely.
As soon as Li heard this, his eyes lit up, and he approached Zhao Yu with a wrinkled smile on his face, and he escaped from a human trafficker who abducted and sold children.
"Then you can talk to your grandmother, how to make this fish soup, and your milk will make you an extra pot today to ensure that you are full."
Zhao Yu twisted his eyebrows and thought about it, and directly spread his fingers to pull, "It's normal, but I used up all the wild onions and garlic yesterday, and I will continue to make fish soup today, and I have to dig a little more." ”
Otherwise, the fish is very fishy, and the fish soup made is not delicious.
After hearing this, Li Shi looked confused, and said in his heart, what is this wild onion and wild garlic?
My own girl is chattering.
However, when he thought of the wild vegetables that Er Ya picked up in the backyard vegetable garden yesterday, Li could also guess that the wild onions and wild garlic that Er Ya said in his mouth were probably those worthless wild vegetables in the vegetable garden.
"Okay, you can dig as much as you want."
Li waved his hand, and his tone was heroic.
This is because the wild vegetables in the vegetable garden are all dug up from the river, and a large area grows by the river, and it is everywhere, and it is worthless.
"What else is there besides the wild onion and wild garlic you said? What to do with this fish, you can quickly talk to the milk. ”
Li urged, and Zhao Yu did not hide it, and immediately told Li the steps and materials he prepared yesterday.
While listening to it, Li Shi was distressed.
Hey, I didn't expect this fish to be so troublesome to handle, and it had to be soaked in salt water, no wonder.
Could it be that this fishy smell is removed like this?
"No, it's hard to get rid of the fishy smell."
Zhao Yu looked at Li, and the inexplicable memory in his head came out again, "The best thing to remove the fishy is cooking wine, but we don't have it, using salt water is to cover the fishy smell, using wild onions, wild garlic and ginger is a reason, if you want to get rid of the fishy smell, it is very difficult." ”
At least according to her memory, it is not difficult to remove the fish, but based on what she saw in the kitchen at home yesterday, if she wants to get rid of the fish, it is better to wash and sleep.
After hearing this, Li sighed.
Not too disappointed, because she felt that this was the way it should be.
If the fishy smell of fish is so easy to remove, why is the price of fish so low?
"Okay, Grandma remember, let's continue to drink fish soup at noon today, it just so happens that your father and they went to the river to catch fish, and when they come back, let's pick two big fish and make fish soup."
After figuring out the joints, Li let go a lot, and his tone was very confident.
Yesterday's successful pot of fish soup also gave her great confidence, and Zhao Yu's words made her feel that she could make such a delicious fish soup again.
