Chapter 5 The women of the Jiang family do not work
When Gu Xia came to the courtyard, Jianghu had already skillfully peeled off the rabbit skin.
Rabbit skins are a good thing, and they can be exchanged for silver in the city.
"Sister-in-law, just sit and rest. I can do anything, I don't need you. In the future, when you marry my brother, you will wait to enjoy the blessings. Our Jiang family doesn't need women to work. Jianghu moved a wooden pier and wiped the dust on it with his sleeve. beckoned Gu Xia to sit down.
He neatly chopped the rabbit meat and cleaned it.
Gu Xia looked across the rivers and lakes to Jiang Yi, who was chopping wood not far away, and the man uninhibitedly rolled up his sleeves to his elbows, revealing his strong forearms. It looks very powerful.
Jiang Yi noticed Gu Xia's warm gaze, he looked over and looked at each other.
Gu Xia's frank eyes made Jiang Yi embarrassed. Hurriedly retract his gaze.
This woman specified that it was interesting to him.
I didn't want to marry him, but now I look at him so boldly.
Gu Xia didn't know Jiang Yi's thoughts, she saw that the rivers and lakes hadn't blanched the rabbit meat, so she was about to stew in the pot.
Isn't that a waste of meat?
She took three steps and two steps and strode over: "The newly killed rabbit meat is not blanched, and it will smell bloody when it is stewed." Let's stew, I'm okay cooking. ”
After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Jianghu to agree, snatched the spatula in his hand and squeezed the person aside. Take a gourd scoop and scoop a few spoonfuls of water into the pot, put the green onion segments, and two slices of ginger into it. Pour a few drops of rice wine to remove the fishy smell.
Jianghu stood aside in a daze, as if the door to a new world had been opened. He made up his mind that when his sister-in-law got married, he wanted to learn cooking from his sister-in-law.
After Jiang Yi finished chopping firewood, he silently came to Gu Xia's side, squatted in the stove pit, and added firewood to it.
Jianghu is somewhat unbalanced in his heart, you must know that he was the only one who burned the fire and cooked before. Big Brother has never helped.
"Who would have thought that the eldest brother, who is strict with us on weekdays, will be a daughter-in-law. Sister-in-law will be blessed in the future. Jianghu grinned and quipped.
"You talk a lot. If you are in a hurry, go and fetch water. Fill the water tank to the brim. Jiang Yi said in a cold voice.
The Jiang family does not have a well, so they share a well with the villagers, which is quite far from home. When the rivers and lakes thought of carrying water, their legs were weak. Crying and chirping, "Big brother, I'm at fault, you punish me for eating meat, don't punish me for carrying water." I'm too weak to do heavy work. ”
The work of carrying water has always been done by the eldest brother.
"Shut up." Jiang Yi was not angry.
Gu Xia scooped two spoonfuls of lard and melted them in the pot, put green onions, ginger and garlic in the pot, five-spice powder, and blanched rabbit meat into the pot and stir-fried. Taking advantage of the quarrel between the brothers, she secretly took out the soy sauce from the space and poured it into the pot.
Soy sauce makes the stew fresh and the color is good.
The rivers and lakes smelled the strong smell of meat, and quickly shut up, he was afraid that Harazi would flow into a river, so he asked his sister-in-law to see the joke.
He used to stew meat at home, but it wasn't so fragrant. I don't know what my sister-in-law put in the pot? The incense is dying.
Even Jiang Yi, a person who doesn't pay attention to appetite, swallowed his saliva twice when he smelled this fragrance.
"It smells so good! My sister-in-law is really virtuous, and her cooking skills are so good. Jiang Xiaobai led Jiang Xiaoyun to Gu Xia's side, sniffing the fragrance vigorously.
This pair of small dumplings was obviously attracted by the smell of meat.
Gu Xia added soup to the pot and covered the pot. The stove was so big, she turned her leg and touched Jiang Yi, wiping his face.
The weather was hot in May, and the coarse cloth dress Gu Xia wore was separated by a thin fabric. Jiang Yi could clearly feel the woman's softness. Cheeks flushed.
But the culprit Gu Xia is still unknown, so "Huh! Jiang Yi, why are your faces so red? Could it be a fever? Do you want me to show you? ”
"I'm fine, I'm fine, you stand there and don't move. You don't have to look at it. Jiang Yi stopped in a cold voice, for fear that Gu Xia would approach.
"I'm not a tiger, I can't eat you. What are you afraid of? Gu Xia was speechless, after all, there was no past.
She is a little girl who also wants to save face, and she doesn't want to put a hot face on Jiang Yi's cold ass.
"Is it possible that the sister-in-law is blushing with shame from the eldest brother, and as soon as you get close to him, you are even more blushing and heartbeating, and you can't control yourself." The rivers and lakes interjected cheaply.
Gu Xia "......"
"The water tank is not satisfied, and you are not allowed to eat." Jiang Yi looked at the second brother with a cold face.
"Sister-in-law, take a look, my eldest brother will know how to bully me." The little expression of grievance in the rivers and lakes.
He's just telling the truth, and he doesn't want to bully people like that.
"Second Brother Jiang Yi is still a child, don't be so fierce to him." Gu Xia helped the second brother speak.
Jiang Yi looked at her helplessly and spoke sullenly. "Huh? Fifteen-year-old? ”
Gu Xia didn't know what to do. She is also fifteen years old, and she is about to get married.
Isn't fifteen years old a child in modern times?
Gu Xia reconciled the noodles, most of the coarse grain noodles, and put a small bowl of white noodles. The white noodles have bottomed out, and this is still her last bowl of noodles.
If you don't put some white flour, the cake will prick your throat and be really hard to swallow.
She made good noodles, Jiang Yi had already shaved eight or nine taro, and the pieces were all chopped.
The Jiang family has a large population, and it is not enough to eat rabbit meat, so Gu Xia took the taro from Jiang Yi's hand. The tips of his fingers accidentally ran across the back of Jiang Yi's hand. The feeling of electric shock made Jiang Yi's body pause.
This woman must have deliberately seduced him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yi unconsciously hooked the corners of his lips.
The rabbit meat was stewed for a long time, just enough to pour the taro pieces into it and stew it together. By the way, put some salt in the pot. Freshly rolled multigrain cakes are placed on the edge of the pan. The rabbit meat is stewed softly, and the multigrain cake is cooked.
Taking advantage of this time, Gu Xia fried a wild vegetable with lard. Remove from the pan and add the minced garlic to the soul. The taste went up all at once.
The wild vegetables were fried, Gu Xia estimated that the rabbit meat was also stewed, and as soon as the pot was opened, the delicious meat fragrance was all over the yard. It's very gluttonous.
Jianghu endured the urge to drool and helped his sister-in-law serve vegetables. The twins were not idle, and went into the house to pick up dishes and chopsticks.
In the village, like this, you can fry vegetables in the courtyard with an iron pot, and you won't smoke a room. And the food was brought to the house.
A large pot of rabbit meat stewed taro was stewed, and a pot of multigrain cakes was also full, and Jiang Yi rushed into the house first. Gu Xia followed behind Jiang Yi empty-handed.
At this time, Jiang Hai, the third elder of the Jiang family, came back with a crutch. As soon as I entered the hospital, I smelled the smell of meat, and the further I went, the stronger the fragrance became. He was already hungry, and now he's even hungrier. Quickened the pace.
"The third brother is quite good at rushing to order, the rabbit meat is stewed by the sister-in-law, and the quack is delicious. The third brother is blessed. Jianghu said excitedly. He couldn't resist stealing a piece of rabbit meat, it tasted terrible. Even the imperial chef in the palace does nothing more than that.
"The third brother came over and called sister-in-law." Jiang Yi introduced Gu Xialai to him.
Jiang Hai was a little stunned, he went out, there was an extra sister-in-law at home, and he had a pity expression that he had missed something. I have to tell the second brother about the sister-in-law who the eldest brother turned back.
"Hello sister-in-law, my legs and feet are not good, which makes my sister-in-law smile. But don't worry, sister-in-law, I enlighten the children in the village, and the money I earn every month is enough to spend. Won't drag down Big Brother. Jiang Hai explained on crutches.
