The old lady looked her up and down on a cane, and said, "Come in." ”

Unexpectedly, this matter was quite easy, Zuo Qiongqiong was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and after entering the door, the envy almost overflowed her eyes.

It's huge! It's so spacious, this is the idyllic life of your dreams!

The yard is large and divided into two areas, one side is paved with bricks to prevent slip as a range of daily activities, and the other is planted with a variety of seasonal vegetables, and there are several pots of flowers in full bloom at the entrance.

To the east of the main house is a separate kitchen, brightly lit, even larger than the thatched hut where Zuo Qiongqiong and the three of them lived, with refrigerators and induction cookers.

The old lady stepped into the kitchen first, took out a stainless steel basin for her, and said, "Put it in first." ”

He walked to the cupboard, squirmed for a while, and finally handed her a large black plastic bag.

Zuo Qiongqiong glanced at it casually, and it was actually a small barrel of oil, two bags of salt, and even some rice noodles, which was enough for the three of them to eat for a while.

She was a little panicked, and hurriedly said, "Grandma, there are too many of these things, and the fish is not worth these money." ”

The old lady held her hand and said, "You are a hard-working child, even if you don't eat, those two children can't go hungry, listen to grandma, and take them back." ”

Zuo Qiongqiong didn't expect that she had just crossed over and gained the first kindness, even if the living conditions she faced were so difficult, she suddenly felt full of hope.

"Okay, thank you, I'll definitely give it back to you!"

Just as Zuo Qiongqiong was about to leave, she suddenly heard a cough from inside the room.

She stopped and asked, "What is this?" ”

The old lady sighed and said, "This is my wife, we are old, and our health is not as good as day by day, we will come back to support the elderly, and let the children be more relaxed......"

Zuo Qiongqiong is just a cook, and she is powerless about this kind of thing.

But perhaps, she can also help the two old men!

Zuo Qiongqiong's feet that were about to step out of the door shrank back, put the bag aside, and said, "Grandma, I'll help you cook!" I don't want your money, I think you're buying mine with these things. ”

The old lady could see that she didn't want to owe herself, so she nodded, "Okay, then you can do it, everything in the refrigerator can be used." ”

"Do you have any taboos? And the grandfather inside, there is something not to eat. "Zuo Qiongqiong is a qualified food blogger, so naturally she has to take care of the world's first customer.

"He likes spicy food, and I eat it lightly."

"Good!" Zuo Qiongqiong nodded, turned around and walked into the kitchen.

The fish that had just been put in the basin were swimming happily, not knowing their tragic fate at all.

Zuo Qiongqiong considered that the amount of food for the two old men might not be too large, so she took out a medium-sized fish, neatly disemboweled, cleaned the internal organs, deboned and slice and marinated.

Put oil in the pot, add green onions, ginger and dried chili peppers to stir-fry until fragrant, put the fish bones and fish heads into the pot and stir-fry, and when the fish bones are browned, add an appropriate amount of boiling water.

Cover the pot, and in less than five minutes, the fish soup inside the pot has turned a milky white with umami.

Zuo Qiongqiong picked up a colander and fished out the broken fish bones and residues, leaving only a pot of delicious fish soup.

Mei Hongmin was taken aback when she saw this, she originally wanted this little girl to fry two dishes casually, but she didn't expect that she still had this hand, and easily boiled the fish soup white.

The fish, which she has not been able to deal with for decades when she cooks by herself, is particularly easy in her hands.

Zuo Qiongqiong first took out a little fish soup and handed it to Mei Hongmin, "Grandma, you taste it first, if it's not salty enough, I'll put some salt." ”

Mei Hongmin almost trembled and took the bowl of fish soup, even if it hadn't been delivered to her mouth, the fresh and sweet taste rushed into her nose.

She couldn't wait to take a small sip, and the fresh aroma of the fish soup overflowed her mouth, slowly sliding into her throat, warming the empty stomach.

Zuo Qiongqiong looked at her expression, and felt a little uncertain, she should taste it first, what if it doesn't suit the other party's taste?

You won't be kicked out, will you?

Just when she was worried, Mei Hongmin drank the rest of the fish soup in three or two sips, and exhaled a hot breath with satisfaction.

"Little girl, your craftsmanship is so good, I have never drunk such a delicious fish soup!"

Zuo Qiongqiong's heart just now finally let go, and the corners of her mouth showed a smile: "You just think it's delicious." ”

Slide the marinated fillets into the boiling broth, and turn off the heat as soon as the meat changes color.

The fish meat is tender and smooth, and the fish meat is completely non-firewood, and it is even more enjoyable to accompany a bowl of milky white fish soup.

Because the old lady likes to eat light, Zuo Qiongqiong did not add stimulating seasonings, but chose to use chili peppers to mix a dipping water for the old man who likes heavy mouths.

When you are older, you have to pay more attention to the combination of meat and vegetables, so Zuo Qiongqiong picked a delicate little cabbage in the yard, turned on the high heat and dried chili, quickly drew a circle in the pot, and poured a circle of white vinegar when it came out of the pot.

The cabbage made in this way not only retains the crisp texture, but also has a sour and spicy taste.

Zuo Qiongqiong originally wanted to stir-fry another dish, but Mei Hongmin stopped her, "The two of us are too old to eat so much, and you still have two children at home, hurry up and go back, don't let the two of them worry." ”

If it weren't for being reminded by the other party, Zuo Qiongqiong really forgot the two dumplings at home, and hurriedly carried the bag in her hand to say goodbye to the other party.

Before he walked to the door of the house along the desolate mountain road, he heard the sound of two small groups crying, Zuo Qiongqiong shouted in her heart, hugged the bag in her hand and trotted up.

The closer they got, the more piercing the crying voices of the two children became, and Zuo Qiongqiong's heart jerked up.

The two children stood at the door, their eyes red, and they stopped when they saw her appear, but they still couldn't help sobbing: "Auntie..... I thought you didn't want us anymore......"

A 'grunt~' came from the small belly of the left light.

The little boy held on to the rotten door frame that was only left with scum and covered his little stomach embarrassedly: "Auntie, I'm hungry ......"

Zuo Qiongqiong slapped her head suddenly, and said in a panic: "Baby, wait!" My aunt will go cook right away! ”

Zuo Guang looked at Zuo Qiongqiong who turned around to clean up his things, and the tips of his ears were slightly red, this is the first time his aunt has called him baby, and his father has called him like this before......

The original owner still loves cleanliness.

If you don't look at the ashes on the stove and the mud on the bowls and chopsticks, and everything in the messy house......

Well, it's pretty clean.

Fortunately, there are water pipes in this house, and Zuo Qiongqiong carried the pot and chopsticks to clean them carefully.

Only then did I find out that the original owner's sister-in-law only left three bowls for them, and two of them had notches, which would scratch their lips if they didn't pay attention.

With the rice noodles and seasonings brought from the old lady's house, Zuo Qiongqiong has confidence.

Aren't they just two little kids? I went to the kindergarten to inspect what children like to eat.

However, children should be more careful when eating fish, fish bones are very dangerous.

So Zuo Qiongqiong split the fish from the middle, scraped the fish meat into a delicate fish paste with the back of the knife, and paid attention to whether there were fine thorns mixed into it every time she scraped it.

Zuo Fan looked at her skillful appearance, and asked hesitantly, "Auntie, what are we going to eat today?" ”

Zuo Qiongqiong saw a little worry in her eyes, and when she was a little puzzled, the memory of the original owner appeared in her mind.

The original owner was a kitchen idiot who didn't know how to cook at all! The big hole in the top of this pot was accidentally smashed by the original owner, so they would fill their hunger with potatoes on the mountain every day some time ago, and they didn't even have a place to use the dishes and chopsticks......
