Chapter 51: Dabao is still hungry
In order for his daughter-in-law to eat a spicy and fragrant fish, Xiao Cang picked garlic from the vegetable field behind his house, pinched a handful of pea leaves, and then the family gathered in front of the earthen stove to watch his daughter-in-law command the second child to kill fish.
The ingredients in the Xiao family's kitchen are pitiful, and Shui Furong instructed the second child Xiao Tuo to pick off the fish head separately and split it into two pieces, and then cut the fish body into thin slices and yard a layer of sweet potato powder. Add a little salt to taste.
Xiao Cang brought the beans picked from the vegetable field in the morning to his daughter-in-law as if he were offering a treasure, "Fu'er, do you want to cook this beans in fish soup together?" ”
Shui Furong looked at the plump beans and grinned: "Big brother, peel the beans out to make sauce." ”
"Sauce?" The brothers looked dazed, but since the daughter-in-law had her own opinions, Xiao Cang hurriedly sat down at the square table with the beans and peeled the beans.
There are no chili peppers and peppers at home, so Shui Hibiscus asked Xiao Li to borrow some from a neighbor's house.
"The Yellow Barefoot family in the village has those things."
Water Hibiscus is puzzled, don't they usually eat chili peppers? "Only the barefoot doctor's house has chili peppers?"
Xiao Cang walked over and stroked her black hair, and said quietly: "Dried chili peppers and sesame peppers are all boiled and sweated when they are infected with wind and cold, how can they be eaten?" ”
Water Hibiscus covered her forehead, I dizzy, of course I can eat it.
"Sixth brother, you take some silver and go to Huang Barefoot's house quickly."
"Oh, but Xiao Rong, if someone asks, do I say I want to get fish to eat?"
"Uh...... It's all right, sixth brother, you remember, you want dried chili, pepper, tangerine peel, if he has turmeric, you can also order it. Xiao Li listened to her daughter-in-law's instructions, and went out of the house with these dry ingredients silently in her heart, and went to Huang Barefoot's house to find the seasoning that her daughter-in-law wanted.
After a while, Xiao Li lived up to expectations and bought back a bag of dry ingredients.
In the evening, many people in Mutu Village heard that Gong Lili said that she wanted to eat spicy fish at Xiao's house, so they followed her to join in the fun, and by the way, they saw the craftsmanship of the little lady of the Xiao family.
"Tuo'er, where is your lady? Are you making spicy fish? Shui Hibiscus stood by the earthen stove with her apron on, tasting the fish soup in the pot with a spatula, and still smashing the delicious fish soup, and several figures poured into the kitchen.
"Da Bao Niang, here, sit down, the fish soup will be ready."
Gong Lili walked to the earthen stove with Dabao in her arms, sniffed and said, "It's so spicy, how did you do it." ”
"It's very simple, I'll tell you how to do it after I'm done later." Seeing that saliva was flowing from the corner of Dabao's mouth, Shui Furong reached out to help him wipe the saliva, and rubbed Dabao's oil, which made Dabao giggle madly.
"Little lady of the Xiao family, is the spicy fish you boiled in the pot?" A villager approached and asked with a frowning face.
"Yes, it's almost out of the pot, you guys sit down first."
There were so many neighbors in the house suddenly, and the few men in the Xiao family didn't know what to do, and the four long high benches in the family couldn't sit down for so many people, so they could only sit together. If you can't sit down, you just hold chopsticks and wait at the table.
Shui Hibiscus instructed Xiao Li, who was burning the fire, "Sixth brother, after I put the fish soup out, you can boil the water and cook the dumplings." ”
"But the third brother, they haven't come home yet." Xiao Li hopes to wait for the three elder brothers to come home from the town and have a reunion dinner for the Dragon Boat Festival together.
looked at their eldest brother Xiao Cang very embarrassed, Xiao Cang was in a good mood after rounding up the room, so he beckoned everyone: "Everyone sit down, sixth brother, cook a few bowls of dumplings and bring them to everyone to eat, Dabao is still hungry." ”
"Oh."
Yu Erhan, who was standing behind Gong Lili, said with a smile: "Dabao can't eat dumplings yet, so he can't eat milk." ”
"It's okay, Dabao has just been fed...... Gong Lili said, holding Dabao's chubby face.
Xiao Cang felt so embarrassed, and quietly glanced at his daughter-in-law who was serving fish soup in front of the earthen stove, his heart trembled, fortunately his daughter-in-law didn't listen carefully to what was being said here, otherwise he would be embarrassed.
Xiao Cang brought two large bowls of fish soup to the dining table, and the chopsticks of the villagers poked at each other.
