Chapter 263: Eat Fish for Breakfast
"Brother, did you eat braised fish this morning?"
Sicui saw the big herring in Gu Siwei's hand, so he asked with a smile.
Gu Siwei raised the fish in his hand with a smile: "How is it?" ”
"It's big, but this fish is a bit old," Si Cui replied.
After staying with Gu Siwei for a long time, Sicui began to be a little picky, of course, if the fish is not old, he also learned it from Gu Siwei.
"Braised is naturally a bit old, but it can be used to cook porridge," Gu Siwei smiled and explained loudly to his sister.
Hu Yanqiu walked out of the house, listened to the conversation between the brother and sister, and looked at the big fish that Gu Siwei was carrying in his hand, and asked, "Go fishing early in the morning?" ”
Gu Siwei smiled and nodded: "Didn't you say you wanted to eat fish, I happened to be okay when I got up in the morning, so I went to the river to catch one." Look, alive".
In the morning, Hu Yanqiu said casually, if only there was a fish. The small fish that Hu Yanqiu said is a small salted fish, and it is a must with rice porridge.
However, for a while, Gu Siwei couldn't get a little salted fish, so he had to let his daughter-in-law taste something else.
The fish is indeed alive, and if you look closely, you can see that the mouth of the fish is still slightly open from time to time, although it has been passed through the mouth by the grass rope from the gills, but the vitality of the fish is still quite strong, and it has not died until now.
Sicui heard Gu Siwei say that fish is used to cook porridge, and immediately said: "Brother, it's not good to just have fish, and now there is no wild ginger in this season, and the taste of cooking fish fillet porridge without wild ginger is much worse."
The two old men standing next to them were already a little down at the moment, they really couldn't understand that the pair of brothers and sisters in front of them were still so picky about eating?
Gu Siwei didn't care about what the two of them thought, as soon as he heard his sister say that there was no wild ginger, he smiled and touched it from his pocket, took out a piece of wild ginger that was only the size of a palm and shook it.
"See this?"
Gu Siwei asked with a smile.
Sicui's eyes lit up when he saw this thing, and after a pause, he asked, "Is there still wild ginger at this time?" ”
As he spoke, he ran out of the vegetable garden, ran to Gu Siwei's side, stretched out his hand and took the wild ginger, put it in front of his eyes, looked at it again and again, and finally determined that it was wild ginger.
"At this time, there is actually tender wild ginger!"
Si Cui is a little strange.
Ginger is harvested almost three seasons a year, not because they are good seeds, but because ginger adapts to the climate of the south, as long as it is sown on time, it can be harvested after more than two hundred days.
But the wild ginger here is different, wild ginger wild ginger, that is, wild ginger, the size is relatively small, and the stem that bears fruit is naturally smaller, usually only the size of a finger, and it is usually two or three knots.
Using this thing to cook fish porridge is really not created by Gu Siwei, but taught by Tao Yisheng, since eating it, as long as the Gu Siwei brothers and sisters eat fish fillet porridge, it must be added with wild ginger.
I haven't eaten it for a few days, mainly because the wild ginger is a little old at this time, and the taste is a little bitter, so it is really not suitable for cooking porridge.
So why is there today? Needless to say, does Gu Siwei want to eat anything out of season?
"I also happened to see this ginger that had just emerged, and I originally wanted to dig and dig to see it, but I didn't expect to dig up ginger. Okay, stop looking, go wash it and I'll clean up the fish."
Gu Siwei didn't have time to talk about wild ginger with his sister-in-law, so he asked the girl to wash the wild ginger, and he came to the side of the pot stove, took out the cutting board, and carried the kitchen knife and fish to the edge of the canal.
Directly put the cutting board on the ground, and hit the fish's head twice with the back of the knife, and the fish immediately did not move, and then began to use the knife to scale the fish's body.
The scales have not yet been laid, and the eye-catching Hu Yanqiu walked over with a basin and squatted next to Gu Siwei.
"Get out of the way, don't let the blood of the fish splash on you".
While busy working, Gu Siwei said to Hu Yanqiu, who was squatting beside him.
Hu Yanqiu smiled and said, "You're not afraid of what I'm afraid of, and besides, can you let me give it a try?" ”
"What? Killing fish? ”
Gu Siwei was a little uncertain for a while, so he asked Hu Yanqiu.
Hu Yanqiu nodded: "Well, I want to learn to cook, otherwise I will let you cook in the future, then others will not look at me like a waste snack, I will follow you to learn to cook in the future."
"Whew! What am I talking about, I cook because I like this job very much, and I don't force you to be able to cook, let others say whatever they want, let's live our own lives and hinder them......" Gu Siwei felt that he had to enlighten Hu Yanqiu when he heard it, how tiring it should be to live in other people's mouths.
Hu Yanqiu said: "I also want to learn."
"Do you really want to learn?"
Gu Siwei saw Hu Yanqiu nodding solemnly, and handed over the knife in his hand to Hu Yanqiu.
"Then let's start with the scales, pay attention to the knife to be a little oblique, don't lean too much, too much oblique will be wasted, if the angle of the blade is just right, so that the speed of the scales is fast and not wasted.
Slow down, don't scratch your hands, the knives at home are still quite sharp."
Gu Siwei taught his daughter-in-law to kill fish hand in hand, Sicui washed the ginger and went to wash the rice, the cooking process The brothers and sisters don't know how many times they cooperated, no need Gu Siwei said, Sicui knows how to do it.
After the rice was ready, Si Cui poured the rice into the pot, and after adding water, he did not make a fire directly, but covered the pot with a lid and let the rice soak in the pot.
After doing this, Si Cui saw that the fish had not been killed, so he sat on the small bench with his cheeks in his hands, and looked at the two people who showed affection not far away.
Sicui is very happy, and now the girl's heart has begun to wonder when her little nephew will be able to let herself be held.
Although it is a bit strange for such an older child to want to hug his little nephew, Si Cui thinks so.
Others are not embarrassed, but now the two old men are really embarrassed.
At this time, it's not appropriate to yell at two throats, and it's not appropriate to go back to the house, but it's not good to disturb people.
In the end, there was really nothing to do, and the two old men came to Sicui's side.
"Sicui, is there any work we can do?"
Old man Li asked with a smile.
Sicui scratched her head when she heard this, and made a loud noise, obviously thinking about what else there was to do at home.
After thinking for a while, Si Cui finally said: "Why don't you go to the field to fetch grass after eating, my brother said that you are here to work, and it is good to pluck the grass, otherwise how about going to beat the leaves for the corn cob?" ”
As soon as the two old men heard that there was work to do, they immediately smiled and said: "Okay, you can do any work, you have been working all the time, and now you don't have work to do, and your heart is not steady."
Gu Siwei heard this, he turned his face and smiled and said to the two old men: "You guys are really ...... Ay! Oh, by the way, let's build another house from today, and then you'll have work to do."
"Build a house?"
Old man Li asked.
Gu Siwei nodded and said: "Well, otherwise, you both live in that house, my house is useful, and when the house here is built, you move over and move this house out for me."
Hearing this, the two old men glanced at each other, and both got the same thought from each other's eyes: Look, after just one night's stay, let's move out of the good house. Forget it, this may be the fate of the two of them to be a livestock shed after all.
Gu Siwei didn't pay attention to the expressions on the faces of the two old men, and his attention was now focused on preventing his daughter-in-law from being cut by a knife.
"All the materials?"
Old man Yu glanced around when he asked, but he didn't find any bricks or anything around, so he naturally thought that the materials were not ready, so he speculated that the house didn't know if it could get up in winter.
Otherwise, it is a mud house, which is quite normal, and now most of the rural houses are mud houses, such as the wooden house where Gu Siwei lives is extremely rare, and it is also this American country style.
As for why Old Man Yu knows the American country style, is it good for Old Man Yu to stay and study, although he is not in Europe like most leaders, but Old Man Yu's aesthetics are still there, and it can be seen at once that the style of Gu Siwei's house is close to the American country style, and the thick log house has also lived for two years.
"Whatever you need to prepare, it's all ready-made, there's a pile of wood over there, you pick up the bark first, and then the scar is flattened. Forget it, I'll teach you when breakfast is made later" Gu Siwei wanted to explain, but he felt that it was too troublesome, just take them over after eating and watch himself do it again.
For these two old men, Gu Siwei was not prepared to make any trouble for them, nor would he treat them like some young people outside, but he did not say that he knew what the development of the future era would be, so he had to lick them, Gu Siwei did not have that hobby at all.
Come here to work, three meals a day are guaranteed, I won't beat you or abuse you, as for any special treatment, don't think about it.
Gu Siwei's embarrassing life experience told him that no matter when or what occasion, you have to look up to yourself, and only if you look up to yourself, others may look up to you, and a person who puts himself in a low position anytime and anywhere, at least Gu Siwei looks down on him, so even if he knows how it has been for decades, Gu Siwei can't just have a shy face and shout something Li Lao Yu Lao.
Not for anything else, just because of the fall, the share of the space holder!
Under Gu Siwei's guidance, the fish was cleaned up.
Just when Hu Yanqiu wanted to learn a piece of fish, he was stopped by Gu Siwei.
"I'll come first, and I'll leave some fish for you to slice slowly."
If Hu Yanqiu is allowed to operate it again, Gu Siwei feels that his breakfast will have to be changed to lunch, and it is so wasteful to kill a fish, let alone a more technical slice fish.
Besides, the novice is also a thick slice and a thin slice, the thin one is boiled in the pot, and the thick one is still alive in the middle, so you can't change the fish fillet porridge into fish fillet paste.
Hu Yanqiu didn't insist on it, and continued to watch Gu Siwei Pian Yu from the side.
I watched it very carefully, and I studied it very seriously, and it seems that I really want to be a qualified housewife.
