Chapter 4: Chicken stewed with mushrooms
Chen Ping said a few words to the grandmother on the kang in the house, but she didn't say much, probably saying that she got lost on the mountain and came here, wanting to rest her brother's feet and beg for something to eat.
"Chengzi, kill a chicken, put some mushrooms to stew, I think my daughter is hungry."
After listening to what happened to Chen Ping, the grandmother on the kang saw that Chen Ping was hungry and tired, and at this moment she was instructing her grandson, that is, Chen Ping's male god, to become a son-Liu Cheng.
"Well, I'll go."
Liu Cheng responded happily, and then went to work.
"No need, I'll just deal with the bite."
Chen Ping was a little embarrassed, although the conditions of the people are better now, but she saw that the house in this Tunzi was broken, and the clothes she wore were old. Liu Cheng and his grandmother are both coarse cloth clothes, and no one picks up these clothes when they are thrown into the city, even in Tunzi, she has never seen anyone wear them, and the style is too old-fashioned. She estimated that in the fifties and sixties, there were no such earthy clothes.
In this case, people kill the chicken for her, and come to the chicken to stew mushrooms, you must know that this chicken stew with mushrooms is a dish for entertaining distinguished guests. Even if she stays in the tunzi, the chicken is sold for eighty to one hundred and two, and if she kills and stews it well, she will have to be one hundred and two, she doesn't know anyone, how embarrassed is she!
Although she really wanted to eat it, and the chicken stewed mushrooms flashed in her mind many times before, she Chen Ping was sensible and didn't want to burden people.
"It's okay, girl, you sit on yours, when you get home, you are a guest, you can do it there." In our house, if you don't say anything else, you have to let your daughter eat enough. ”
The old grandmother saw Chen Ping's embarrassment, and smiled kindly, although she didn't know Chen Ping, but Chen Ping encountered difficulties and went to the door of her own house, it was also fate, they had to entertain well.
"Then thank you grandma, I'll go and help Brother Chengzi cook."
Chen Ping thanked him and offered to help.
"No, you rest yours, your eldest brother Chengzi's cooking skills are not bad, you can taste it in a while, he makes it delicious."
The old grandmother grabbed Chen Ping's hand and didn't let her move.
Chen Ping didn't withdraw her hand, although the grandmother's hand was rough and thin, but Chen Ping felt kind.
Liu Cheng was very quick, went to the yard to catch a chicken, bleed the chicken, used the hot water boiled in a large iron pot to remove the hair, took out the internal organs, and chopped them into pieces.
What to do next, Chen Ping didn't know, anyway, she didn't hear too much noise, including when Liu Cheng caught the chicken, she didn't hear two chicken crows.
At this time when the chicken was stewed, Chen Ping chatted with the grandmother, and she also knew that the grandmother's surname was Ma, and the tunzi they lived in was not big, with a total of about 20 households. Before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are mushrooms in front of and behind the mountains here, which is called a many, and many people are sometimes not rare to pick, so everyone calls this tunzi mushroom tun.
They have a big town here called Taoyuan Town, which is the best place for them here, there are a lot of good things there, and usually they will go to the town to change if they need it.
There are six tunzi under Taoyuan Town, and the mushroom tun is a relatively small tunzi, and some of those large tunzi have more than 100 households.
The bigger the tunzi, the better the living conditions they have.
Of course, it is very difficult to marry to the town, in addition to the town, they are also willing to marry their daughters to Datunzi, so that life will be better.
Like Mushroom Tun, few people will choose, and it will be more difficult for a young man to marry a daughter-in-law.
Chen Ping felt a little strange after hearing this, she had never heard of this Taoyuan Town, and now it is still called a town.
But Taoyuan Town, why is this name so familiar?
She must have heard it, and it had only recently been heard, otherwise it would not have felt so familiar to her memory.
Where did you hear that?
Chen Ping pondered, her heart suddenly startled, she saw that the stone tablet that disappeared and appeared in the palm of her hand was not written on Taoyuan Town?
Chen Ping suddenly felt a little cold, isn't she seeing someone now? Is it the stele that changed?
But before she could be afraid, Grandma Ma's laughter came, and the male god Liu Cheng began to serve food on the kang table.
A large pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms.
This is stewed in a large iron pot in the countryside, and the fire is made of firewood, which is different from the taste of those battery stoves and gas stoves in the city.
Chicks are domesticated and grow up eating grain or bugs, and the texture of the meat is incomparable to that of the quick-growing chickens in the city.
To eat or not to eat?
Eat, right? Chen Ping was still a little scared in her heart, she was afraid that these were spirits in front of her, not that the more spirits she was, the more beautiful and kind she would be, so that people could be fooled.
Seducing, seducing, and people are generally beautiful women, but they are women, so they will come out with a male god, let yourself be fooled.
Surely they put something in this chicken stew and mushrooms, and they will faint when they eat it, and then they will eat themselves again, right?
Chen Ping's mind was full of thoughts of one kind or another.
Can you eat it? At this moment, I am hungry, and I don't know where I am, if I don't eat, I am afraid that in less than three days, I will starve to death.
Forget it, even if you die, you have to be a full ghost. There are such fragrant dishes, and there are eye-catching male gods, let's talk about it after eating.
Under the greeting of Grandma Ma, Chen Ping unceremoniously picked up the chopsticks and sandwiched the chicken to eat, and the aroma of the chicken itself was added to the freshness of the mushrooms, which became a fresh fragrance, and this aroma made her pores all over her body open.
Chen Ping usually eats chicken stewed mushrooms, after all, this is a famous dish on their side, although the food is delicious, it can't be compared with the one in front of him.
Chen Ping knows that the chickens in the city are all raised, and that kind of chicken doesn't smell like chicken. In the tunzi, every family raises chickens, although they are also fed with grain, but they are also fed with feed, and like pigs, they are fed together.
Many people say that it is a stupid pig, but in fact, it is fed with feed, only in the last few months to feed soybeans or something, although this pork tastes better than the city one, but it is not authentic.
And the chicken she ate today should be pure food and insects, and has not been fed, so it feels different, the difference in meat quality, she tasted it in one bite, and it really makes people want to eat it.
The mushrooms are also fresh and fragrant, absorbing the flavor of chicken, and when you bite into it, it chirps, not to mention how beautiful it is.
Chen Ping didn't want to stop eating chopsticks, but she saw Liu Cheng standing there and looked at him twice before turning around to leave.
"Whoa, whoa, big brother."
Chen Ping hurriedly swallowed the chicken and shouted.
"Girl, eat quickly, don't worry about Chengzi."
Grandma Ma said with a smile.
"Big brother, sit down and eat."
Chen Ping beckoned, because she came, so that the male god couldn't eat, she couldn't go.
Besides, there are places here where women have the habit of not serving at the table and eating in the kitchen. But Liu Cheng is a man, there is no such statement. Could it be because she is a young girl and is afraid of gossip from others?
"No need, you eat."
Liu Cheng smiled, his eyes were clear, and there was no reluctance on his face.
