Chapter 170: The Whole Crab Feast
"Good news, good news, low-rent housing can be registered, neighbors, residents of the capital household registration and family income, less than ten taels of silver a year, all can go to sign up!"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, slow down, is this the house being built in the south?"
"Isn't that the piece, Lao Teng, we all match, are you going? I heard that the rent is only 100 to 150 wen a month, and the rent will not be increased within ten years! ”
"Why don't you go? It's a cement brick house, can it be our turn? ”
"Sign up first, it's not your turn, there's nothing to lose, is it?"
On this night, the entire capital was boiling, although a very small number of them were not happy to move to the suburbs. However, for the vast majority of people who have no houses and low incomes, this is a long drought.
As soon as the morning dawned, there was a long queue on the street in front of Jingzhao Mansion, and the whole street was bustling, and the familiar and unfamiliar neighbors were talking loudly, understanding each other's conditions while secretly comparing themselves with their own homes.
When I heard that the other party's income was lower than my own income, I was so nervous that I couldn't do it, and I was relieved if I heard that someone who was richer than my own was also here. I was so nervous that I didn't feel relieved until I saw the paperwork on the registration form, noting down my name and household address.
When the clerks wrote down the list, they repeatedly emphasized to the people who came: the registration time is half a month, and after the deadline for registration, the imperial court will verify the basic information of these registered families, and remove the list that does not meet the requirements of low-rent housing.
In particular, it is emphasized that some large families that have not been separated before cannot take this opportunity to separate, and the family occupies several more suites.
As soon as they said this, some admitted their mistakes on the spot, while others disagreed, thinking that these were just to scare them, and they went their own way.
After the registration, the people ran to the construction site in groups to watch, and they had only heard that now, they have a good chance to live in these houses, from other people's homes to their own homes, and their feelings have sublimated.
More than 5,000 households, more than 10,000 houses, neatly and neatly, standing on the official road to look at the east and west, it is needless to say that it is shocking.
"Is this really for us? Oh my God, this house is so well repaired, isn't it? ”
The old man who asked this still can't believe that his family in the great-grandfather's generation is also a family with a house in the capital. But the great-grandfather's generation has been declining since the beginning, and he is a drama and a gambler, and the family did not pay off the debts until his father's generation. He has been renting a house for several generations, and when he encounters such a good thing, the old man still thinks he is dreaming.
"Can Jingzhao Mansion still play tricks on our people? It's definitely a number, as long as your family's situation is true! ”
"This cement floor is really clean, the walls are also clean, my wife can stay for one night, it's worth dying!"
"Have you seen the stove? There are also pigsty and thatched houses, when this pigsty does not raise pigs, you can raise chickens, live in the courtyard of the capital, where is it convenient to live in this village! ”
"I really wish I could live in Ming'er, I just want to ask, have you said when the list will be announced?"
"Having said it, in the winter month at the latest, let the people who are qualified to live in it celebrate the New Year in a new house!"
Not only did they look at the east side, but they also did not let go of the west side, and finally stood on the street that was still being repaired and pointed out. Plasterers, listening to these discussions, their waists are straight, this is their own home, and no one is not unfamiliar with their houses.
In this area where tens of thousands of people live, in addition to housing, a school and a few shops on the street will be built. Not only is it convenient for residents to buy, but also allows pedestrians passing by here to rest, and staying here for one night is much more cost-effective than staying in an inn in the capital.
If it is formed, it can be regarded as a very large town, even more populous than some small county seats, and a town so close to the official road and the capital can already be expected to prosper in the future.
The chief designer Zhong Qinbo, now he has no time to go to the construction site, he has to check the list of purchased materials during the day, and he has to do coolies at night to help his daughter-in-law.
In order to make dried lemon slices for Heiwa, Cuihua picked lemons for more than half a month in the space, and used the drying equipment in the space to keep slicing and drying.
I also picked thousands of catties of small yellow apricots, cut them in half, and dehydrated them into dried apricots, and there was nowhere to go if I wanted to buy these things this year.
The two had to go back to the bedroom early every night and work until they went to bed. is so busy directly to Juyue, Cuihua still needs some sense of ritual in life.
In previous years, chrysanthemum moon, chrysanthemum and crab eating are also a scene, what chrysanthemums are there this year? There are a lot of crabs, and the Yuan Mansion opened a whole crab feast on the day of the Moon Festival.
A cage of more than half a catty of big crabs, so vivid that they show their teeth and claws, the black panther and the black tiger know how powerful these crabs are, but they don't know, there are so many living creatures, it can't help but want to provoke.
"Ah, ah, daughter-in-law, help~"
"Painful dead birds, painful dead birds~" The humming screams resounded throughout the main courtyard.
"Hahahahaha."
When a few children saw the humming of the crab's claws, they leaned forward and closed their backs happily, not to die. This little guy actually used his claws to catch the crab, and was caught in two paws by the crab's big pincers, and he couldn't shake it off, so he had to call for the masters to come and help.
The children laughed and laughed, the big kitchen was busy, and the cooks dismantled hundreds of female crabs and made a full twelve crab dishes under the command and arrangement of the main mother Cuihua, the staple food bald butter bibimbap.
Remove the bones of the herring and chop it into a puree, then mix the dismantled crab meat and crab roe with it, add a little starch, black pepper, salt and a small amount of Shao wine to remove the smell, and stir in a clockwise direction.
Finally, these meat purees are squeezed into balls, cooked in clear water Chinese fire, and the delicious small balls are like dragon balls, compared to the taste of fish balls, it is called fresh and fresh.
Crab fried rice cake: The soft and glutinous rice cake absorbs the umami of the crab, and it is impossible to say whether the crab meat is fresher or the rice cake is sweeter.
Salt-baked female crab: only fat and golden, coupled with the salt-baked method, not only retains the original sweetness of the crab meat, but also adds the salty aroma of sea salt and spices, which has an extra layer of flavor compared to steaming.
Crab roe and shrimp tofu: The crab roe made of crab roe, crab paste, crab meat and crab oil perfectly retains the soul of the lake crab "fresh", and then it is accompanied by soft and silky tofu and fresh and elastic shrimp, scoop a large spoonful and pour it on the rice, which is fragrant.
Crispy crab meat roll: Slice the chicken breast into thin slices, wrap the crab meat after marinating, roll it into a cylindrical shape, then stick to the white sesame seeds, and fry it until golden brown, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sesame seeds cannot hide the aroma of the crab meat. No child can escape the charm of this dish, and they can't stop eating chopsticks.
Use the two tendons of the pig's front hooves and stew them in advance until soft and flavorful. Take out the crab meat and crab roe, season it with broth and simmer it slowly over low heat, and then meet it with the hoof tendons, the soft and glutinous hoof tendons are mixed with golden and fragrant crab roe, and the cabbage heart after blanching is used to decorate it, which is eye-catching and stomach-nourishing.
As the soul partner of tonight's rice, bald butter, the method is actually simple and crude: just need to heat the oil, add minced ginger and stir-fry until fragrant, then add crab roe, boil out the butter, then add minced green onion and crab paste, stir-fry thoroughly and add wine, water, salt, and pepper to taste.
It tastes better when eaten after refrigeration, and there is no other problem with this oil, which is Fei crab roe crab paste.
In addition to these, of course, there are also drunken crabs with carved flowers, flavored crabs fried with spicy pot bases, etc., and bald butter and drunken crabs are prepared two days in advance.
Lao Yuan led the Yuan family of Dali Village to return to the capital, but it was a pity that the two of them couldn't eat too many crabs because they were pregnant, so they were so hungry that Fan Qingju swallowed her saliva and repeatedly begged her sister-in-law to do it again next year.
Sure enough, everyone loves crabs, but they are impatient to peel crabs, and the first thing everyone eats are those crab dishes that don't need to be peeled. Cuihua also has two cubs with their mouths open waiting to be fed, eager to grow ten hands.
"Mother, this yellow oil is so good, I can eat three bowls of bibimbap!" Xiaoliu is the iron powder of bald butter, one bite after another, a big bowl of dry rice.
"Son, the oil you eat in this bowl of rice, my mother has to peel more than ten crabs, and our family doesn't have so much silver to lose!"
Hearing the eldest aunt say this, the three heads and the four heads have accelerated the speed of dry rice, such a delicious oily rice, once a year. Xiao Wu directly asked for a big bowl, and the dry rice man hated the trouble of filling the rice in the small bowl, and he couldn't wait to use the pot.
has turned four years old, eat a five-year-old meal, and now the amount of food has been the same as half of the elder brothers, Master Wu has already said that after the beginning of the year, he will give Xiao Wu a medicinal bath, and next year this baby will be able to practice internal kung fu.
After eating a sumptuous whole crab feast, there are freshly baked crab shell yellow cakes in the evening to enjoy the moon, sweet ones: jujube paste filling, brown sugar filling, salty taste: pork and crab roe stuffing and crab roe shrimp filling.
Crispy, pine, fragrant, fresh, a few bites, the little ones can't wait to grow two stomachs, Yuan Wenjie and Yuan Wenwu packed hundreds of back to the palace.
The weather is gradually getting cooler, and the two concubines, who have been pregnant for eight months, have never returned to Dali Village after returning to Bofu on the Moon Festival, they have to wait for childbirth in the capital, and Ma also lived in the capital with his daughters-in-law.
Leaving the old Yuan Tou alone in Dali Village, their workshop has a scale of thousands of people, most of them are life jackets for the sailors and ship merchants who are about to go away, and the front yard of the entire old mansion of Yuan Mansion is overcrowded.
The pictures of the puzzle also came out with a lot of gorgeous colors, and the companion group was no longer confined to doing it themselves, and the court painters were not less harassed by them.
These carpenters were eager to start work in twelve hours, and when they got paid, they could buy it with silver, even if the price of food rose considerably.
The imperial court also distributed a lot of seafood, planted cabbage, radish, lettuce can also be eaten, chickens and ducks eat dragon and vegetable leaves, grow faster than eating grain, this day, can live!
