Chapter Seventy-Six: Chef Ye

It's just that although she wants to go back to her parents' house to see, but it is too hot at this time, and the summer is busy, she doesn't really want to run to the mountains, so let's talk about it then, and when she sells peanuts and builds a house, she can pick up her mother's family to come and live.

Sitting in a rocking chair was also boring, Liu Man'er went to the kitchen to watch Ye Yuan cook, the last time I was in the mountains, I saw him making firewood turkey and barbecue are very good, I don't know what his cooking level is.

However, although Liu Man'er thought well, Ye Yuan was not very good at cooking, as soon as Liu Man'er entered the kitchen, he saw that he cut a piece of meat into six large pieces, Liu Man'er saw it and asked, "What kind of dish are you going to fry?" ”

"Just stir-fry the meat." Ye Yuan said naturally, "I'll make you a stir-fried meat with capers." ”

"Oh, do you still have to chop this meat a little more?" Liu Man'er looked at such a large piece of meat and said, "Finely chopping it will make it more flavorful, come, I'll teach you." ”

Liu Man'er went over and cut the meat into thin slices, Ye Yuan watched from the side, saying that he would, and then took the knife in Liu Man'er's hand again.

In fact, Ye Yuan didn't know how to cut thin, he just didn't think about cutting it like this, men, they are all thick and leafy, and they also like the feeling of eating meat in large pieces.

Besides, in this country, whoever cuts meat is a large piece of meat that is four fingers wide and an inch thick, without it, no one in this peasant family eats meat every day, and cuts it into such large pieces, but anyone who knows how to be polite will not touch it, but will only eat it with sauerkraut, and will always use this piece of meat to fry for several days, it is really soft, and these people will start eating.

Of course, Liu Man'er's family is not short of meat to eat now, and the family eats fresh meat every day, so in the past six months, the children in the family have grown taller, others don't say, just say that this Ye Feng, when he first came, he was still a child, but now he looks at it again, but it seems that he has grown into a young man, just a little, there is Liu Man'er so tall, presumably next year can be compared with Liu Man'er.

Ye Yuan cut the meat, went to the stove to make a fire again, and stirred it in the pot with a spatula.

"Want to eat eggplant? I'll make you a roasted eggplant? Ye Yuan saw that Liu Man'er had been watching by his side, so he asked.

"Grilled eggplant? All right. Liu Man'er nodded happily, she also wanted to see how Ye Yuan's roasted eggplant was made.

I saw Ye Yuan rinse an eggplant with water slightly, checked that there were no insect eyes up and down, and then put the eggplant into the fire, and then found a few peppers and put them in the fire, and then he buried the eggplant pepper with fiery ashes.

"Is that okay?" Liu Man'er blinked her eyes, indicating that she was very curious, but she thought that this taste should be good, and the roast chicken was delicious last time.

"Well, wait a minute, when the rice is cooked, it should be about the same." Ye Yuan said as he cooked other dishes.

Today, in addition to a stir-fried meat with capers and a roasted eggplant, there is also loofah soup and bitter gourd scrambled eggs, and there are not many people in the family, so these four dishes are enough.

The firewood cooked the rice quickly, and after a while, Ye Yuan took out the rice, boiled the remaining rice soup thicker again, and then served it in a basin.

"Are you hungry? Do you want to drink a bowl of porridge first? Ye Yuan saw that Liu Man'er was always watching by his side, so he asked.

"No, I'll just see how you cook first." Liu Man'er said with a smile.

"What's so nice about this." The corners of Ye Yuan's mouth curled slightly: "What I make is not delicious, so you can barely eat it." ”

"Why, what you're making must be delicious." Liu Man'er encouraged him and asked, "Did you work as a guy in the army before?" ”

Ye Yuan looked sideways at Liu Man'er and admitted it, "When I first went to the army, I was doing chores in the kitchen. ”

"It must be hard." Liu Man'er walked to the cutting board, looked at the bitter gourd cut by Ye Yuan, and said: "I see that you cut vegetables or something, they are all very good, but they are a little rough, for example, this bitter gourd, you cut it so thickly, it should be very bitter, right?" I don't think you should cut it a little finer and soak it in salt water? ”

"Man'er, you don't have to say it like this, you think I can't do a good job just say it." Ye Yuan walked over and picked up the knife.

"Actually, I'm not picky." Liu Man'er was exposed by Ye Yuan's careful thoughts, and said: "Just wait for my mother and them to come back, I thought I did it, and my mother will definitely say it when the time comes." ”

"Okay, I'll cut it a little thinner." Ye Yuan picked up the knife again as he said and continued to cut.

Liu Man'er went to wash the pot, heated the oil, and then put the meat in it and stir-fry, as for the dishes that Ye Yuan cut, Liu Man'er asked him to cut them more finely.

Ye Yuan has a lot of strength and good knife skills, and when he heard Liu Man'er say this, he re-cut all of them again, but it didn't take much time, and when Liu Man'er stir-fried the meat, he just re-cut the sauerkraut.

Liu Man'er put in chili pepper and ginger to stir-fry, add sauerkraut, add a kind of soybean oil made by the farmer, and it is immediately fragrant.

Ye Yuan cut the vegetables and went to the stove to light the fire.

As he lit the fire, he turned over the chili eggplants he had put on the stove.

Take a bowl, carefully tear off the outer layer of the pepper, and then put it in the bowl, the eggplant is the same as tearing off the outer skin, and then find a small mallet, mash the eggplant pepper, put in salt and soybean oil, Liu Man'er burned the hot oil and poured it on, and then added a little green onion and stirred well, it looks very good.

"Would you like to taste it?" Ye Yuan picked up a trace and put it to Liu Man'er's mouth, Liu Man'er licked it in, and immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "It's so delicious, I can eat one more bowl of rice later." ”

"yes, this roasted eggplant was my favorite when I was a kid." Ye Yuan said.

"Why hasn't that mother made this dish for us recently?" Liu Man'er asked while frying bitter gourd.

"I don't know." Ye Yuan also shook his head, "Maybe she thinks she used to make this dish every day, she thought we wouldn't like it." ”

"What kind of logic is this?" Liu Man'er said and pondered for a while, but she roughly understood what Ye Yuan meant.

This roasted eggplant is not difficult to make, and it does not take time, when cooking, you can make it together, and you don't even need to wash the pot, it is estimated that in this farmhouse, every household is busy with farming, and if you don't put more oil on this eggplant, it will be a little greasy, and it is disgusting to eat too much.

In Fang's eyes, this is a thing of the Riba people, and now that her life is better, she wants her children to eat better, so she won't make this roasted eggplant.

"Oh, my mother really thinks about us everywhere." Liu Man'er brought out the last dish, then brought the dishes out together, and asked while setting the table, "Why haven't they come back yet?" ”

"It should be soon." Ye Yuan looked at the sky, but it was not early.

"Don't they have my peanuts sold, so they've been waiting there, right?" Liu Man'er was quite worried.

"I don't know." Ye Yuan shook his head and went to serve the remaining bowl of dishes.

Liu Man'er was waiting at the door, and after a while, she heard their voices, "Oh, mother kissed them back, Ye Yuan went to bring out the rice and porridge." As she spoke, she began to take the bowl and set the chopsticks herself.

As soon as Fang entered the door, Liu Man'er looked over, Fang put the back basket down to the kitchen to wash his hands, and Liu Man'er looked towards the back basket, which was already empty.

"Eat." After they washed their hands, Liu Man'er beckoned Fang and the others to eat, and at the dinner table, she inevitably mentioned the sales of these peanuts, "Mother, are we selling these peanuts well?" ”

"It's okay, it's all sold out." Speaking of this, a smile appeared on Fang's face, "I never thought that someone would buy such peanuts as expensive as meat. ”

Liu Man'er just wanted to laugh, but Ye He added on the side: "But my mother and mother are all sold for four yuan a catty, not five yuan." ”

"Oh, four articles are four articles, we still have to earn." Liu Man'er felt that this was nothing, and it was not impossible to sell less.

"It's just that my mother doesn't sell it, and in the end, people buy five catties, and there are eight catties left, and my mother will give them all to others." Speaking of this, Ye He complained to Liu Man'er.

Because every time I go with this sister-in-law, I feel always very happy, and the business is also very good, this time I followed the Fang family to sell things, Ye He was in a hurry to die on the side, the Fang family is so good, every time I weigh the scales, the scales are high, forget it, every time I have to grab a handful and give it to others, for fear that others will suffer.

Originally, before she went, she talked for five cents a catty, but later Fang's sold it for four cents and a catty, and people bought two or three catties, saying that she would send some, she nodded and agreed, watching those people grab her peanuts, her heart was about to break.

Originally, Liu Man'er thought that she wanted Ye Tianchen to grab something for others to try, but the Fang family asked people to grab and try it by themselves every time, and Ye He was in a hurry to die on the side.

This peanut was something she had worked so hard to get back.

Not only that, after the peanuts in the ground were recovered, Ye He also carried a small basket with a small rake head, and Liu Fusheng and Ye Feng carefully inspected the two pieces of land in their own house, that is, the peanuts that were leaking in the ground were also pulled out by her with a small rake, but they were sent away by the Fang family, and she died in a hurry.

"People buy three catties and say ten cents, and my mother also sells them, so I think our peanuts not only didn't make money, but they must be losing money." Ye He added on the side.

"No, no, no." Fang Shi was also a little embarrassed, and said busily, "I'm measured, anyway, our usual peanuts are only two pennies a catty, and we still have to make a lot of money by selling like this and that." ”

"Mother, how much did you sell it for?" Liu Man'er asked, this time she gave the Fang family about twenty catties to sell, planning to try the market.

"There are fifty or sixty words." Fang replied while eating.

Liu Man'er didn't speak, after Fang finished eating, he cleaned up the table, took off the small cloth bag from his belt, poured the money on the table, and counted it for Liu Man'er to see.

No more, no less, just a total of sixty yuan, Liu Man'er wanted to cry inexplicably.

"Yes, yes, mother, it's the first time you're going to sell something, it's good to be able to keep your capital." Liu Man'er smiled and comforted Fang's family, but in her heart, she quickly calculated whether she had lost money this time.

These spices cost a lot of money, as well as salt, sugar, meat, these are not cheap things, well, okay, okay, if you cut out the labor of cooking and drying during this time, there should be no loss.
