Chapter 30 Braised Fish
After washing the pigs and going into the water, Huixin and the others went home.
To boil the pig in the water, you need to cut the pig into small pieces first, so the kitchen knife is indispensable, and Huixin can only go to the yard to pull out the kitchen knife.
I saw that Hui Xin pulled the kitchen knife out of the ground with all her strength, and He Shi saw this scene through the window and was startled.
Hui Xincai doesn't care what others think, she still has a lot of things to do.
Zhang felt that it was too hard for his daughter to cook pigs, so he strongly asked his daughter to teach her the method and let her cook, and Huixin could only rely on Zhang.
When Zhang's boiled the pig into the water, Huixin salted the fish caught today, which would be even more delicious when she did so.
Like yesterday, after boiling for an hour, the pig came out of the pot after boiling the water, and because the ingredients were more complete, it was more fragrant than yesterday.
Then it's time to cook dinner, the two families share a kitchen, and if they don't cook early in the third room, when the upper room is finished, it will be almost dark.
Huixin made all the eight fish caught today, made a big pot of braised fish, and boiled a pot of bone broth in another pot.
Huixin wanted to eat white noodles, but it was too late to steam steamed buns, so Zhang rolled out the noodles and cooked them with bone strips, which were nutritious and delicious.
After stewing such a big pot of fish, their family couldn't finish it, and it happened that Lin Laosi was going to come back this afternoon, so Huixin sent two to the upper room.
The people in the upper room were flattered, after all, everyone had just experienced a life-and-death battle, and this girl could be so kind to give them food? But then I think about it, it's just some fishy fish, maybe it's deliberately trying to respond to them.
Seeing that Huixin was gone, Chen immediately said, "The second one, pour these stinky things for me." ”
He picked up the fish and walked out, but before she went out of the door, she smelled a special fragrance, and when she looked down, it was the smell of the fishy fish, "Mother, this fish is so fragrant, the child is his father, you smell it." ”
Lin Lao Er lowered his head and smelled it, it was very fragrant, and then he started directly and ate a bite of fish, "Mother, this can't be poured, it's delicious, the child is his mother, go get the chopsticks, let our father and mother taste it." ”
Old man Lin and Chen were still a little hesitant with chopsticks, they smelled very fragrant, they were really that delicious?
He didn't care so much, he directly sandwiched a big chopsticks of fish meat, puffing out his cheeks, "Mother, it's really delicious, try it." ”
Old man Lin and Chen put a pair of chopsticks in their mouths.
He had already eaten several bites of this kung fu, and stretched out his chopsticks again, but Chen was faster than her, and took the plate away.
"Your fourth brother will come back later, save it for dinner in the evening."
In Lin Laosi, Chen is indeed a selfless mother.
Chen thought about it, plus the bowl of pig water sent by Sanfang last night, today's dinner can be said to be very rich, and the fourth son should be very happy. She added some salt to the pig last night so that it wouldn't spoil, and she would come back to the pot later.
After a while, Lin Laosi really came back, and the family, including the third room, except for Lin Laosan, who had a broken leg, all went out to greet him.
"Fourth brother, you're back." Seeing Lin Laosi come back, Zhang's was also very happy.
Lin Laosi is one year older than her eldest daughter, and she grew up watching this little brother-in-law. When she got married, the little brother-in-law had just been born, and the young daughter-in-law liked children the most, what was delicious, what good fabric she had, she thought about giving it to Lin Laosi, saying that it was the little uncle, in fact, Zhang's treatment of him was similar to that of his son.
But Lin Laosi obviously didn't think like this, "um", he responded lightly, and Lin Laosi went into the house.
Leaving Zhang a little stunned.
"Mother, let's go back to the house."
"Oh." Zhang answered, but was obviously a little absent-minded.
In the evening, the family in the upper room really had a beautiful meal.
The dinner in the third room is obviously more sumptuous, and Xiaozhu eats a small belly that is round, and she can't wait to have another belly.
"Mother, I stewed a big pot of fish today, and now there is still it in the pot, or we will take it to the market tomorrow and let people taste it, if it is good, we will also sell fish in the future."
Zhang also thinks this method is good. She is not afraid of hard work, only afraid that her children will suffer hardships, and only by making more money now, can her children be more productive in the future.
After breakfast the next day, Huixin and her mother set off.
When I arrived at the market, before I could set up a stall, the first uncle to buy pigs and go into the water came yesterday.
"Sister-in-law, little girl, you came early." Uncle greeted with a smile.
"Uncle is also early, are you going to buy a pig to go into the water?" Coming to them so early in the morning, what else could it be if it wasn't to buy pigs to go into the water.
"Yes, I bought it back yesterday, and the whole family loves it, so I'll buy more today."
He didn't exaggerate, he bought a bowl yesterday, the family didn't have enough to eat at all, and finally complained that he bought less, no, he came early in the morning, and he was afraid that he would be late.
Today, the uncle brought a small jar and filled it with five bowls, "Uncle, you take care of our business so well, I'll give you another fish today, you go back and taste it, don't need money." ”
The uncle accepted it with a smile, thinking that this little girl was quite good at doing business, and the things she sold were also strange.
After a while, there were more and more people at the market, and there was a long queue in front of Huixin's stall, with repeat customers from yesterday and new customers who came here.
Zhang gave a piece of fish to every customer who bought a pig into the water until it ran out.
Soon the pig was sold out, which was shorter than yesterday, and there were still many people who did not buy it.
"Why is it gone, you have done too little, we haven't bought it after waiting in line for so long." Someone kept complaining.
"Everyone, I'm sorry, we didn't expect it to sell so quickly, my family doesn't live in the town, it's far from here, there are too many, my mother can't pick it, please forgive me."
It is not easy for everyone to see this mother and daughter, and they don't say anything, so they can only come early tomorrow.
As yesterday, they cleaned up their stalls and went to buy pigs to go into the water.
Today the butcher did not bargain with them, and they bought some pork bones and pork.
"Mother, let's buy some lamp oil, so that we don't have to go to bed so early at night, and we can do something else."
To be honest, going to bed as soon as it gets dark is really uncomfortable for Huixin, and she tosses and turns on the kang every day for a long time before she can sleep.
In the past, Lao Lin's family also lit lamps at night, but now life is difficult, and there is no spare money to buy lamp oil.
Zhang also felt that he slept too much at night, and he had so much time to do a lot of things.
The two went to the grocery store again. Today, I only bought lamp oil, which can be saved, and it is better not to spend unnecessary money.
The stall closed early today, and it was still a long time before noon, so they walked home.
I have eaten well in the past few days, I have strength all over my body, but I don't feel tired, the two of them chatted all the way, and time passed quickly.
When I got home, it wasn't noon yet. After lunch, Hui Xin led Xiaozhu to dig wild vegetables in the mountains, as for boiling pigs in the water, Zhang already fully understood, and Hui Xin didn't need to worry about it at all.
