The old fox raised his head while pickling the radish, "You took these dishes to pickle, so what will we eat at night?" ”

"Shabu-shabu."

Lin An thought about the food during the competition, and she saw that the shabu-shabu she made was very popular, so she thought that she happened to eat hot pot with the little bun and the old fox at dinner.

Hot pot is the most interesting thing to eat together when there are many people, Lin An also likes to eat hot pot, but unfortunately when she had no task in her previous life, she was always alone, even if she ran to a hot pot restaurant to eat when she was greedy, she always felt that it was not so tasteful. Now it happens to be a family of three, and it is easy and convenient to eat.

However, a family of three people ...... This kind of talk came out of Lin An's head, she really felt weird, when did she actually think that the old fox was also her own family.

She bought the pot on the way back, and also bought some meat and spices along the way.

The old fox and the bun were busy over there, so Lin An processed the ingredients and cut the meat into thin slices. The chicken that the old fox killed, a lot of meat can not be used, but the gizzard and chicken skin can be used, and the chicken breast can also be cut into thin slices and floured to shabu, which can be regarded as the best use.

With the addition of those vegetarian dishes at home, three people should be able to eat enough.

The pot was born, and there was a charcoal fire under it, and the hot pot base was also made by herself, which was similar to that during the competition.

Put the fresh chicken bones and pork bones in a pot and boil together, wait for the soup to boil, change the heat to low heat, slowly hang until white, then remove the bones and foam from the soup noodles, add the wolfberries and green onion and ginger.

On the other side, take the oil over high heat, put the seasoning and spices together and stir-fry, and after the fragrance is stir-fried, pour in the previous bone broth to make a simple hot pot base.

However, the little bun is young and can't be too spicy, Lin An didn't add dogwood powder to the hot pot base, but just used it aside to make a dipping sauce with other seasonings, and a simple shabu-shabu came out.

It didn't take much time to do this, and the old fox over there had just finished processing the beans and turnips, and put the pickled radishes in the cellar, while the beans were spread on a bamboo plaque, waiting for the sun to bask for a few days.

The three of them sat down in the courtyard and began to make shabu-shabu.

Baozi is the first time to eat shabu-shabu, and his expression has not been calm since he sat down, he doesn't need to taste it at all to know that what his mother makes, no matter what it is, must be delicious.

Of course, the old fox had eaten shabu-shabu, but he didn't eat much, and it was the first time that three people sat around and ate together like this.

Lin An held the spoon in his hand, controlling the time when all the ingredients were put into the pot, and reminding them one by one to take them out and dip them in the seasoning.

The two of them actually ate with relish, which made Lin An feel that the hot pot he was used to eating had become a lot more delicious.

The sun was already hanging on the side of the mountain, and the sunset in the west illuminated the sky dusk and yellow, reflecting the whole courtyard, which looked so harmonious and beautiful.

Lin An felt in his heart that such a day was really good, not as exciting and enthusiastic as in his previous life, but with a simple and comfortable warmth, it was really easy to make people lazy, but this feeling was really good.

"Hmm...... It's delicious! ”

In the chatter of the buns, Xiao Muyan reached out and rubbed his head, and gave him another piece of meat before he looked at Lin An and opened his mouth, "Then now, is your money enough to open a restaurant?" ”

"It should be enough." Lin Anxin counted the accounts, the silver in the family before, the silver reward of the Qin family, the money from selling wolf skins and game, plus the prize money from this competition, there were sixty or seventy taels in the family, which should be enough to buy shop decoration and recruit workers to prepare for the opening. Anyway, you don't need to open too big a restaurant at first, just take your time.

"Have you figured out what to drive?"

"Let's open a barbecue restaurant." Lin An thought about it carefully and felt that this was still a little more reliable. Although she is very good at stir-frying, she is definitely too busy to be alone, and she doesn't want to make herself too tired. Like hot pot braised vegetables and barbecue, it is naturally the best to pay for helpers and not cooks.

However, there are one or two in Pingxian County, and the ordinary people in Suri will make this thing at home, even in terms of taste, Lin An can be sure that his own will be better than theirs, but in this way, he will make more at home, and he is not likely to be happy to go to the restaurant to do it, so it is better to barbecue after thinking about it.

As long as the barbecue ingredients are adjusted, it is easy to teach others how to do it, this kind of shop does not have one in Pingxian County, and it is not afraid of competing with others, it should be the best choice.

"Barbecue restaurant? Sounds good, but what about the other needs, have you thought about them? Do you want me to help. ”

"No, I've pretty much figured it out." Lin An shook his head, this ingredient is easy to get, he grows some at home, there are also a lot of vegetables in the village, and there are also prey that Brother Zhang Wu hunted in the mountains, so he can also use this to do some business for the people in the village and take care of them. The helper is up, and it's almost time to recruit a few people, one of them, Lin An, has also thought about it, the guy from the grocery store, he is polite and patient, and he is very careful in his work, if he can dig this corner of the wall, it is naturally the best.

Anyway, there is still time, and when the shop is bought, you can take your time while you are decorating.

"This barbecue restaurant is opened in Pingxian County, which is somewhat far from the village, will you still live here?"

"Of course, I built this house with great difficulty, how can I say that I will change it, and now the money has to be put on the opening of the restaurant, and there is no extra money to rent a house in the county, so I will buy a horse when the time comes."

Walking is definitely not possible, there is no time at all, and it is much more convenient to buy a horse.

"You can also ride a horse?" A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Muyan's eyes, but he quickly covered it up again. Really, what's so strange, there is no other little fox in this world who will not.

"How hard it can be to ride a horse." Lin An knew how to ride in his previous life, at first he only learned it in the horse farm because of his interest, and then he simply went to Inner Mongolia and ran with his hooves spread across the entire grassland. Although she is easily tired, she thinks that riding a horse is much more interesting than driving, but unfortunately in her previous life, she was too limited by the place, but now it is better, and the horse has become the only mode of transportation, and she can ride as much as she wants.

"I want to learn to ride a horse too!" The momentum of the little bun came out all of a sudden, and none of the heroes in the martial arts story could not ride a horse.

"Okay, this is still very useful after learning, and when you get older, I'll buy you a foal, and I won't have to let me carry you to the county seat every day."

"Hmm...... Obviously, I said I could go. ”

Xiao Baozi muttered aggrievedly, which made Lin An and Xiao Muyan laugh. Xiao Muyan looked at the two people around him who were bent at the corners of their lips in reverie, and the softness in his heart melted again. The original very tangled hesitation was rushed away by an impulse in his head, and he opened his mouth directly.

"Little fox, I have something to say to you."

"Me?" Why do you suddenly look so serious?

"It's a very important thing, and you may know that you're going to be a little angry later, but I think it's time to say it to you."

Lin An also put down the chopsticks in his hand, "Say what, I'm in a good mood today, and I promise I won't get angry with you." ”

"I ......" Xiao Muyan's throat opened, about the fact that he was Lin Wuyan's father, he felt that he should not hide it from Lin An like this anymore, but these words, even if he was determined to say them, he really didn't know where to start.

It's a pity that he hesitated for so long, and finally wanted to confess to Lin An directly, feeling that he had found the best time, but before he could speak, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

They were in the hot pot in the courtyard, and the sound outside could be heard very clearly, especially since there were no other people near their house, and they had always been very quiet.

Even the boss began to bark at the throat.

"Someone's coming."

"There are still a lot of people."

Listening to these footsteps, you can also hear that there are at least ten people up, but the footsteps are scattered, not like people with martial arts or training.

Sure enough, after a while, I heard a knock at the door.

"Lin Niangzi, Lin Niangzi is at home?"

"It's the village chief's voice."

People from the village?

Lin An's vigilance did not dissipate because he was from the village, there were not many people in their courtyard, even if there was something to be notified, it was the Fat Dun family or Uncle Zhang's family, who had a good relationship with her, and so many people suddenly came to the door like this, something big must have happened.

Lin An gestured to the little bun on the side, asking him not to make a sound first, and sure enough, he listened to the sound outside and continued to sound.

"Sister of the Zheng family, could it be that you are mistaken, I don't think Lin Niangzi is a person who can do this kind of thing."

It was the woman of the Zheng family again, Xiao Muyan frowned, looking for stubble twice a day, it seemed that he let her go too easily during the day.

"What I have seen with my own eyes can be fake, village chief, you can't tolerate this kind of thing, this is going to ruin the reputation of our entire village."

"Zheng Han'er, I think you just want to find Lin Niangzi's stubble again, and you still ...... during the day"

"Eh, Aunt Fat, this yard is one yard, I didn't mention the previous things, this time I really looked at it, her family is a hidden man!"

Hide a man?!

Lin An's eyes condensed, was it because of this? She looked at the old fox, Xiao Muyan shook his head slightly, no matter how comfortable his life here was, he would not let his vigilance disappear completely, and lowered his voice, "I'm pretty sure she didn't see me, but it's possible that she found the clue from something else." ”
