Chapter 33: Cooking
Stir-fry the green onion and ginger slices and star anise until fragrant, pour in the slaughtered chicken pieces and chicken offal and fry until there is no blood, and add the garlic and green onion segments.
Chen Shouxing took the spatula and stir-fried it from time to time, saw that the chicken gradually turned golden brown, poured in cooking wine, soy sauce, dried chili pepper and Sichuan pepper, stir-fried the fragrance, added ingredients and a little salt, water submerged the chicken pieces, and then changed to low heat and simmered slowly to collect the juice after the fire boiled.
A burst of rich meat fragrance wafted into the house through the window, and the Chen family, who were taking a nap, were awakened by hunger.
The doors opened with a squeak, and I couldn't help but swallow my saliva as I smelled the chicken and duck meat in the air.
"Damn, it's too fragrant!"
"It's too rich with chickens and ducks!"
"The fifth child is enjoying his life too much!"
The stove room was full of people after a while, and Chen Shouxing calmly lit the fire.
Mrs. Chen's nose moved, not only the smell of meat but also a smell of medicinal herbs, raised her hand to uncover a few pots in a row, scooped up dry rice, scrambled eggs with leeks, stewed hens with big ingredients, and duck soup tumbling with red dates, wolfberries, and codonopsis.
Covering his chest for a while, wolfberry codonopsis! It's more expensive than the chickens and ducks combined!
Mrs. Chen twisted Chen Shouxing's ears and shouted, "Bastard, two or three dollars of silver for a meal, why don't you go to heaven!" ”
Old Man Chen's mouth was full of worms, and he exclaimed, "Two or three dollars of silver!" ”
Li Fatya was suddenly choked by saliva, "cough, cough, cough ......"
Wang Hongmei/He Shi's eyes widened.
Chen Shouye/Chen Shouhe/Chen Shoushan gasped, "My mother! ”
Dong was shocked at first, and then his heart was sour, his family had only hoarded half a tael of silver after saving food and clothing for a few years, and the uncle's meal was half of his private money!
Chen Shouxing covered his ears and shouted, "It hurts...... Mother...... light."
Mrs. Chen's hands hit people harder, scolding and scolding, "What are we!" The old lady made you spend......"
Chen Shouxing grabbed her hand and said, "Niangniang...... You listen to your son's quibbles! ”
Mrs. Chen laughed angrily and twitched the corners of her mouth.
Chen Shouxing said with a smile, "Mother, I heard my son say that this chicken and duck have been bought a long time ago, and how much food do you have to eat in winter if you don't slaughter it?" ”
Old man Chen nodded, as if this was the reason.
Mrs. Chen stepped on Chen Shouxing angrily, and scolded, "The stinky boy wants to fool your mother, the old lady doesn't know you, Huo Huo will buy meat tomorrow after Huo Huo finishes chickens and ducks today, what is the waste of food, it is obviously greedy!" ”
Chen Shouxing was silent, his mother became more and more difficult to fool, and sighed, "Mother, it was Miao Miao who saw that you two were tired from the autumn harvest and were afraid of hurting your body, so she asked your son to slaughter this chicken and duck to make up for you!" ”
Mrs. Chen's heart warmed, her face was a little better, and she twisted his ear again and said, "Is it really Miao Miao who killed him?" ”
Chen Shouxing nodded again and again, "I don't believe that my mother went to ask Miao Miao, this soup and medicinal materials were bought early, just to make up for the two of you." ”
Mrs. Chen let go of his ears and looked at the smoking chicken and duck soup, the meat was painful and warm, and her mouth couldn't help but chatter, "The old lady is in good health, she is not tired, she doesn't need to make up for it, let Miao Miao don't always worry about me......"
Chen Shouxing nodded perfunctorily, seeing that the soup in the pot was almost cooked, he extinguished the fire in the stove, "Mother can eat." ”
Mrs. Chen stopped her words and swallowed her saliva.
Old man Chen's eyes fluttered and he coughed.
Chen Shouxing twitched the corners of his mouth and shouted, "Dad has lunch with his son." ”
Old man Chen immediately laughed and sighed.
Chen Shouhe's eyes rolled, he walked over and patted Chen Shouxing's shoulder and said, "Old five......"
Chen Shouxing interrupted, "Second brother, third brother, fourth brother, I'll send you a bowl of soup in a while, this duck soup will have no effect if you boil it in too much water, don't be too little." ”
Chen Shouye immediately smiled and said, "The fifth brother said that he was laughing, how could it!" This is the fifth brother and sister specially to make up for their father's mother, how can he be a son to rob his father and mother of food, if it weren't for the cousin's autumn harvest tired, the second brother would be embarrassed to ask for your duck soup. ”
Chen Shouhe swallowed back the words in his mouth, he couldn't go up or down in one breath, what's going on with the second child!
Wang Hongmei blushed, glanced at Chen Shouhe, who only cared about herself, and felt that she was marrying the right person.
Li Fatya's eyes lit up violently, and she didn't pay attention to the saliva flowing out, and the corners of He's mouth twitched.
Dong's eyes gradually reddened, and he raised his hand to wipe it, feeling aggrieved that the little uncle deliberately skipped it because she didn't have a son in her big house and looked down on her big house, and didn't send them soup.
When Mrs. Chen looked back and saw her like this, a burst of anger rose in her chest, and she pointed at her and scolded, "What are you crying and crying about?" looks like someone else is bullying you, has the old lady scolded you or who scolded here, crying all day long! ”
