42. Is it really okay?

"Brother Huang, how do I feel that the mother-in-law has seen me?"

"Oh my, I was able to hide quickly, what a powerful eye!"

"Are you sure she saw us? No, that's a long way off! ”

"It's just a stinky woman, I'm afraid she will do something!"

Under a high wall outside Shenjia Village, five men were squatting, all of them tall, short, fat and thin, and their thick cotton jackets had already turned yellow, and in some places they were even stained with a lot of blood.

"Whether you see it or not, you won't survive tonight."

The man called Brother Huang had fierce eyes, and a fierce light burst out of his small eyes.

"Wang Zhi is right, there is a lot of oil and water in this village, let's make a big one tonight!"

Several people swallowed and foamed at the mouth when they heard this, and nodded vigorously in agreement.

They hadn't had a full meal in a long time.

"Brother Huang, this village has inventory at a glance, we all listen to you!"

"That little lady is really amazing, she can catch so many fish in the snow, we have meat to eat this time!"

"Brother Huang, even if you tell us, let's break in tonight!"

In this Shenjia Village, every household is still buying New Year's goods? Needless to say, there must be food at home!

If they robbed this place, wouldn't they not have to worry about going hungry for a long time?

God help them!

"Wang Zhi, you kid, how do you know that there is food here?"

"Hehe, the last time I saw people from their village go to our relatives, they carried a lot of food in their hands!"

Brother Huang grinned, and with a move of his right hand, he gathered the surrounding little brothers together.

"So, let's get in when it gets dark......."

By the river, Cheng Xi retracted his gaze thoughtfully, his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

She felt a few uncomfortable glances just now, and there was ill will in the coldness, which was definitely not an illusion.

Pretty fast to hide.

Could it be that these fish are in trouble?

Whether it is or not, she plans to eat a big meal tonight!

The two quickly returned home with the loot.

Shen Xingluo and the villagers went to the mountains to chop firewood, and it was estimated that they would come back in the evening, so they simply cleaned up the biggest fish during this gap.

"Xingqi, raise the remaining ones in the urn and add more water."

"Okay."

There are several small black urns in the kitchen connected to the north room, and because the temperature is higher than the outside, the water inside will not freeze, and the fish can live for a few more days if they are put inside.

Cheng Xi took the largest grass carp, scraped the scales, removed the fishing line, cleaned up the gills, and divided it by two in three times and five to deal with it cleanly.

The fish needs to be marinated to absorb the flavor so that it will be fragrant when it is too oily.

She left flower knives on both sides of the grass carp, spread them evenly with ground five-spice powder, rice wine and other seasonings, and finally drizzled a thin layer of flour.

In winter, there was a shortage of vegetables, but they couldn't stand it, and they raised a few in the greenhouse in a wooden trough in advance.

Spinach, rape, cabbage, radish, lotus root, shallots, you name it.

Shen Xingqi quickly pinched a few handfuls of tender green leafy vegetables, washed them and set them aside, and stood aside to watch Cheng Xi busy.

"Sister-in-law, do you need so many side dishes for grilled fish?"

"There are many ways to eat grilled fish, and you don't have to wear it on a skewer and grill it over a fire, the one I make is more like a hot pot."

"Oh~"

The little girl nodded seriously, "What is a hot pot?" ”

“......”

Okay, next time she knows what to eat.

Cheng Xi put the iron pot on the red-hot iron stove to heat, melted the lard and waited for it to heat up, and when the oil was hot to a certain extent, he put the whole marinated grass carp into it.

"Thorn-"

When the lard meets the grass carp, the fragrance bursts out layer by layer, and for a while, the whole living room is filled with a strong burnt smell.

"It smells good!"

Shen Xingqi felt that this grilled fish would definitely be delicious, and the expectation in his eyes was even stronger.

In the past, most of the fish meat is used for stewed soup, and no matter how many green onions are added, there will be a faint fishy smell, and the taste can only be described as fresh.

But this time it doesn't seem to be the same?

"Oh my God, the fish can still be so delicious!"

What kind of fairy practice is this?

Her sister-in-law won't be a kitchen god!

Cheng Xi didn't know that the sister-in-law had already made up a hundred episodes of the TV series "Poor Immortals Made Mistakes and Were Degraded to the Nether to Experience Body and Mind" in a short period of time.

"Where's that big porcelain pot at home?"

"Here!"

Since the discovery of the porcelain pot's wide range of uses, this thing has become an indispensable tableware for three people to eat.

Spread a layer of blanched vegetables under the porcelain pot, and then put the fried large grass carp into it, and the porcelain pot is almost full.

Put the white lard back into the hot pot, add the green onions, ginger and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, and Cheng Xi also added a lot of pepper and peppercorns bought at a high price.

In ancient times, when there were no chili peppers, these two things could make people feel spicy.

You have to find a suitable time to bring out the chili peppers, otherwise wouldn't life lose the greatest pleasure?

Cheng Xi rolled with his hands while thinking about how to "smuggle".

The sauce used to grill the fish was quickly stir-fried, poured into the porcelain pot to drown the fish and vegetables, and the aroma in the living room rose a degree again.

Finally, the hot pure oil is poured into the fish meat on it, and with another "stinging" sound, the room is fragrant again.

Perfect!

"Hmm—I think I'll have to eat two bowls of rice tonight."

Shen Xingqi stroked her stomach while smelling the lingering fragrance on the tip of her nose, her expression tangled.

She's gained two pounds, which is a sin!

Cheng Xi was building a simple heating device, and glanced at her when he heard this.

The little girl is only 16 years old after the New Year, and she is at most a high school student in modern times, and she is a greedy age, and the amount of food must not be small.

"Then eat more, and if you can't eat enough, run two laps around the yard."

Is this a thing?

Don't hurry up and eat it when you don't grow meat, when you are well developed, you won't be so careless now, girl!

"But I've gained a lot of weight......"

"You can't skip a meal, and you can't eat less."

Cheng Xi looked mysterious, "I have a friend who hasn't eaten for ten days, guess what?" ”

"What's wrong?"

"Then she was forever eighteen years old."

“......?”

Shen Xingluo, who had returned home, heard this cold joke as soon as he entered the door, and saw that his sister was full of doubts and didn't seem to react, and his expression became indescribable.

Is it really okay to go on like this?

The empty living room is separated by a separate open space.

Cheng Xi simply built a small stove with red bricks, put a few pieces of firewood in it to heat, and then sat on the porcelain pot.

A simple version of the grilled fish oven is made.

The porcelain pot quickly gurgles when heated, and the layer of vegetables mixed with the grilled fish broth spread out a unique aroma, and the fried golden fish meat also gurgles and begins to tumble.

The whole living room exudes the aroma of grilled fish, and it is even a little pungent because of the addition of a lot of pepper and peppercorns.
