Chapter 20: Big Plate Chicken

Qian Yu never expected that Yue Fei's home was on the same street as the Ding Mansion and the county government, of course, compared to the grandeur of the Ding Mansion and the prestige of the county government, Yue Fei's home can only be regarded as shabby, but only so, it is not comparable to the Hesui brothers and sisters. A row of five large tile houses, red bricks and green tiles, plus three rooms on the east and west sides, pure wooden two gates, a bit of Beijing courtyard taste.

Before he reached the door, Yue Fei shouted loudly: "Mother, I'm back." ”

"Come back, come back, don't be so loud, the old woman's legs and feet are not dexterous, but her ears are not deaf!" Qian Yu walked into the courtyard with Yue Fei, and saw a woman on crutches, staggering and walking, what made Qian Yu strange was that this woman looked less than fifty years old, and it should never be difficult to walk. When he looked closely, he realized that the woman had some problems with her legs, and judging by the way she was struggling to move forward, she was probably suffering from chronic arthritis.

The mother-in-law also saw Qian Yu at the same time, she frowned, and her tone instantly became cold: "Ah Fei, how many times has my mother told you, don't take your fox friends home." Or are your wings stiff now, so you don't have to listen to your mother. ”

"Mother!" Seeing his mother's ugly face, Yue Fei hurriedly ran over and knelt down: "It's the child who is not filial, don't be angry with your old man, if you are angry, the child can't afford to die a thousand times!" This Yu Ge'er is not a friend of the child, he is from Yunxi Village, specially went into the city to find someone, the child saw that he had nowhere to stay, and he was also a match, so he dared to invite them to the house to borrow for two days, don't you often teach the child to help others for fun? The child will always remember it! ”

After listening to Yue Fei's words, the mother-in-law didn't suspect anything, her son knew that although he was fooling around with a group of fox friends all day long, he had always said that one was one and had never deceived himself. Suddenly, an immature voice said, "Aunt Yue? You don't know me anymore? I'm Xiaoguzi, you once gave me a bowl of porridge. ”

The mother-in-law found out that there was a child next to Qian Yu, she thought about it for a long time, but she still didn't remember, so she had to shake her head: "Hey, I'm old, and I forget a lot of things later." ”

Seeing her mother-in-law's expression, Xiao Hegu was anxious: "How can I forget, last winter, it was snowing heavily that day, I was sick, my sister carried me around to seek medical treatment, at that time everyone saw us and took a detour, only you saw me pitiful, brought me a bowl of porridge, by the way, you seemed to live in Dongdajie at that time." ”

The mother-in-law suddenly said: "Oh, it's your sister and brother, remember, why don't you remember, I heard that you met Miss Ding later?" Hey, Ding's Mansion has dominated Qingfeng County for decades, but I didn't expect such a good girl as Miss Ding to appear, and it was really a high incense in the house. ”

"Yes, this is Miss Ding's birthday, and Miss Hesui was invited to help. These two little brothers came all the way from Yunxi to find her. This time, it was Yue Fei who spoke: "Mother, the child never dared to lie to you!" ”

The mother-in-law didn't have a good face for her son: "Whether you can lie or not, you know it in your body and mind, do you still need to say it?" After speaking, she turned her head and looked at Xiao Hegu lovingly, "Little guy, it's a little difficult to find your sister, Miss Ding is easy to talk to, but none of those people in her family are good." ”

Qian Yu said with a smile: "Old lady, don't worry, we have already found Hesui, but we can't get used to the style of the Ding Mansion, so we followed Brother Yue over for a few days, but it bothers you." ”

"Are you ......," the mother-in-law asked suspiciously.

At this time, Xiao Hegu had already slammed to her mother-in-law's side, holding her arm very affectionately: "Auntie, this is Brother Yu, who has been living in our house." ”

Seeing his mother-in-law's ambiguous eyes, obviously misunderstood something, Qian Yu hurriedly explained: "Old lady, it's not what you think......"

"Sensei said, the old body understands, understands ......" The mother-in-law looked at Qian Yu with an expression of a person who came over: "What are you going to do in Dingfu, their family has many rules, where will they be comfortable, the old body occupies the light of his son, he just moved to this compound this year, although he is not used to living in the old house, fortunately, there are many vacant houses, you are all good children, you will come to the county seat in the future, you are not allowed to go anywhere, just live here." ”

With these origins, Qian Yu and his mother-in-law quickly became acquainted with each other, and the mother-in-law looked at Qian Yu and the two more and more pleasing to the eye, and finally took out a new bed for the two of them, it is said that this bed cover was specially prepared by the mother-in-law for Yue Fei to get married. Qian Yu hurriedly excused himself when he heard this, and finally Yue Fei whispered to him that his mother had prepared at least twenty sets of bedding like this before giving up.

In the blink of an eye, it was evening, and the mother-in-law looked at the sky and said with a smile: "You wait first, the old man will go to cook, Ah Fei, go to your Uncle Liu's house next door to borrow some vegetables, and say that our family has a guest, you don't know, the old Liu's house has a hotbed, this old official is whimsical, and he actually planted vegetables next to the bed." At this time, it is not easy to eat green vegetables, he sees that his green vegetables are more precious than life, that is, the face of the old body, ordinary people want to borrow it, but there is no door. ”

Hearing this, Qian Yu hurriedly stood up: "No, no, green vegetables are indeed more expensive than meat in this season, don't you dare to let your old man owe so much favor, you just wait, let Brother Yue and I make dinner, and we can enter filial piety." ”

"Ah Fei cooking?" The mother-in-law looked at Qian Yu and her son in surprise: "He was raised by me since he was a child, why doesn't the old body know when he will cook?" ”

Qian Yu said with a smile: "Of course I just learned it, you don't know, Brother Yue spent a lot of effort to learn to cook this dish, he just wants to honor and honor you, just wait, Guzi, you are here to accompany the old lady, don't run around!" As he spoke, he couldn't help but pull Yue Fei, who was still confused, into the kitchen.

Seeing Qian Yu skillfully tie his apron, Yue Fei was even more puzzled: "Brother, didn't you say that I cook?" You're ......."

Qian Yu looked at him with a smile: "Cook, do you know?" ”

Yue Fei shook his head, and Qian Yu continued: "It's not enough, you won't do it, of course I'm here." ”

"Then why do you want to tell my mother that I cook, and just say that it's you."

"I'm a guest, you said that with the character of the eldest lady, you know that I cook, will she agree?"

Yue Fei immediately said, "No!" Hey, why do you seem to know my mother better than me? ”

"This is called behavioral psychology, forget it, you don't understand it, let's hurry up and work, it'll be dark for a while."

"Oh...... So what am I doing? ”

"Burn the fire!"

Watching Qian Yu skillfully decompose the three plucked chickens, Yue Fei exclaimed: "Brother Yu, you won't be a cook before, right?" ”

Qian Yu waved his hand and signaled Yue Fei not to speak, the most important thing in cooking is concentration, if you are distracted, the taste of the dishes you make will be very different.

As a half-qualified foodie, Qian Yu couldn't stand the food in the school cafeteria when he was in Bohu No. 1 Middle School. In addition, the local characteristics of the large and small restaurants in Bohu County are strong, and some things are okay to eat occasionally, but no one can stand it for a long time, in order to satisfy the appetite, Qian Yu followed Du Niang to learn to cook in his spare time, and he even tried to improve some of the specialties of Xinjiang, such as a large plate of chicken, he was very satisfied.

As the so-called unintentional willows and willows are shady, who thinks that after a long time, he really learns a lot of delicious food, if he is not a teacher, he opens a small restaurant and believes that the business will be good.

In order to reproduce the deliciousness, Qian Yu has done a lot of work this time, and this time he came to the county seat, he brought not only agricultural and sideline products, but also a lot of spices collected in the jungle, which happened to be useful.

The green onion is cut into pieces, the ginger is sliced, and the sun-dried sweet noodle sauce gives off a faint fragrance. As soon as Qian Yu prepared all kinds of condiments, the oil pot was hot, and he told Yue Fei to lower the heat and carefully pour in a small amount of frosting, Qian Yu searched for a long time and did not find rock sugar, so he had to use frosting instead, he was very sorry for this lack of accessories, but he didn't have a good way, so he could only settle.

After a while, a large amount of sugar flowers began to emerge from the pot, Qian Yu poured the chopped chicken pieces into it, stir-fried it a few times, and shouted loudly in his mouth: "Quick, burn the fire!" ”

When Yue Fei heard this, he hurriedly pulled the bellows hard, and the red flames rushed up in a flash, and the scorching high temperature scorched the bottom of the pot, and the chicken nuggets in the pot were encouraged, and they made a sizzling sound hard.

Looking at Qian Yu's movements like flowing water, Yue Fei's curiosity was aroused, in the past, when his mother cooked, he would squat in front of the stove to light the fire, at that time he only knew how to add firewood and pull the bellows, and he never thought that cooking a dish still had so many requirements for the heat.

Qian Yu didn't know the changes in Yue Fei's heart, even if he knew that he couldn't take care of it, Qian Yu was staring at the pot with all his attention at the moment, only to see him stir-fry a few times from time to time, and sometimes add various spices, about fifteen minutes passed, before pouring in half a basin of hot water prepared in advance. The water soon boiled, and the thick fragrance of fat mixed with spices gradually emanated, not only the Yue family, but also the whole street could smell it.

When the juice is almost harvested and the chicken is cooked, the next step is to plate and serve. Looking at the pot of red and green, exuding a rich aroma of dishes, Xiao Hegu's gluttonous drool, even his mother-in-law's eyes flowed with burning brilliance.

Qian Yu grinned and said, "Come, how about it taste!" ”

Before Qian Yu finished speaking, Xiao Hegu had already picked up a chicken nugget and stuffed it into his mouth, looking at the starving ghost he swallowed in his stomach while snorting, Qian Yu couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

At this time, Yue Fei followed, he first served rice for his mother-in-law, and then sandwiched a chicken leg on the rice, and then sat on the chair with a big grin, and casually picked up a chicken butt and threw it in his mouth. When Qian Yu was dealing with the chicken, he was about to throw away the chicken butt directly, but he was stopped by Yue Fei with all his might, and kept shouting that the chicken butt is the most essential part of the chicken, and he can't throw anything but the chicken butt, and Qian Yu sweated profusely when he heard it.

Although the name of the chicken butt is not very good, but it is also a part of the chicken, he thought that it was a pity that Yue Fei threw away the meat, but now depending on the situation, it is estimated that what he said is true, this taste, Qian Yu is also convinced.

Cooking usually has no appetite, Qian Yu was about to rest and eat again, but found that Yue Fei finished eating the chicken butt, so he looked at him with a blank eye, he was stunned, Yue Fei said: "Brother Yu, why don't you eat?" ”

Qian Yu was a little dazed: "I'm not too hungry yet, you eat first!" ”

Yue Fei hurriedly urged: "You are a guest, if you don't eat, I can't move chopsticks!" ”

Qian Yu looked at Yue Fei and then at his mother-in-law, he is not the kind of person who has never seen the world, he knows that many local customs and habits are different, especially some gate valve families, they have high requirements for treating customers, is Yue Fei still a famous family?

It's not easy to inquire about this kind of thing, so he can only pick up a piece of meat according to Yue Fei's request first. Who knew that this piece of meat had not yet reached his mouth, Yue Fei had already carried chopsticks like flying, and the one he ate was called a gobble.

"Is Aunt Yue at home?" At this moment, a crisp voice sounded outside the door, crisp and sweet, like a yellow warbler crying in the valley, but why is this sound a little familiar?

The mother-in-law smiled and said, "It's Qianqian, come quickly!" ”

A petite shadow at the door flickered in when she heard the sound, and her big eyes moved with three points, who is not the little girl who claims to be the daughter of the county order?
