Traveling through the farmhouse: farming and making a fortune and raising cubs

Chapter 46: Chapter 46

I just heard about it before, but now I saw it with my own eyes. There are several large and small plates on the counter, and they are all meat dishes, and there are no vegetarian dishes.

Who knows how to eat so well when working? When cooking, it’s good to put more lard. You may not be able to see the meat. Just eat more rice and don’t feel hungry.

Basically, every household is like this. After all, families that can eat meat twice a month are very rare in the village.

There are a lot of fish among them. Children don't understand it, but adults know that fish meat is actually delicious. Fish in restaurants are very expensive, but it is not easy to make fish delicious.

Fish itself has no fat. If you want to cook fish deliciously, you need to use a lot of oil. This alone is enough for many people to give up eating fish.

Yesterday afternoon, the bowl of fish soup served by Lin He was smelled by many people around at that time. In addition, Li Yu and Li Hao verbally promoted it, so they all knew that the fish soup cooked by Lin He was delicious.

So at this moment, Xiuling saw several kinds of fish in large plates and small pots on the table. Instead of feeling disgusted, she was even more surprised.

How much oil would it take to get this out?
The sister-in-law is too generous!

Asking herself, Xiuling felt that she couldn't do it, even if she ate it by herself, she couldn't bear it.

No wonder she reacted so strongly.

"Not much. By the way, Xiuling, why are you carrying a bucket?"

Xiuling hurriedly put down the bucket, and changed her hand to hold the child again: "It's a rice field eel. Cousin Changhui caught several more rice field eels, and asked me to bring them back together."

"Caught it again?" Lin He was a little surprised, but took a look at the things that had been prepared: "Let's put it away for now, and I'll eat it at noon tomorrow. By the way, it's alive, right?"

It is stored in a bucket, and it sounds like there is still water, so it should be alive.

Xiuling nodded: "It's alive, not a lot. Sister-in-law, where is An'er's food? I'll feed him."

Li Yu added a handful of firewood, quickly brought Li An's canned rice to the dining table, and took a spoon and an empty bowl.

Li Yu is also an old hand at feeding the third younger brother. He poured the rice from the earthen pot into the bowl without hesitation, it was still warm, and it was just right to eat.

Naturally, Xiu Ling has also taken care of children. After all, it is normal for older siblings to take care of younger siblings, or younger siblings to take care of nephews and nieces.

It is also handy to feed Li An at this moment.

Li Hao had already run to the stove, and stretched his neck to look around: "Mother, is this fish? Is this delicious? I still want to eat the fish soup like yesterday."

"Go aside, be careful not to splash the oil on your face."

Lin He was chasing away flies, but what about the fish soup that Li Hao mentioned?
Oh, I didn't hear that!

Being rejected by his mother, Li Hao was not sad, and ran to the desk in a flash, looking at the fish that had been processed, and screaming.

After the small noodle fish comes out of the pan for the first time, heat the oil in the pan again, and then pour all the small fish that have been fried once, and the oil will become very crispy after the second oiling.

The small fishes are put on the bamboo sieve, and a large bowl is used below, and the dripping oil can be cooked later.

"Li Hao come here."

He took a small bowl and filled it with a handful of small fish: "Take this here, eat with elder brother and aunt Xiuling, and taste the taste."

Li Hao, who had been watching eagerly for a long time, quickly ran over: "Thank you, mother!"

As he said, he picked up a small fish, it was very hot, and he blew it quickly. The anxious look made Lin He frown, and was about to remind him, when he stretched out his hand, and the small fish was fed in front of Lin He.

"Mom, you eat first."

Lin He was taken aback, then smiled: "Okay, I'll try it first."

Bending down to eat his son's filial piety, Lin He nodded with satisfaction: "Well, it tastes good, delicious, you all have a taste."

It's really good, very crispy, and it's even more crispy when it cools down a bit.

The only thing that makes Lin He dissatisfied is that it is fried in lard, which does not taste so refreshing and has a thicker taste.

However, for people who have less meat and less oil all year round, this kind of taste should be more popular.

No, Li Hao took the remaining small fish and shared some with the big brother who set the fire, and Xiuling who fed Li An, and the remaining few were his own, and the three of them had the same amount. .

After the three tasted it, they all praised it again and again, saying it was delicious.

There is only a slight salty taste, but it tastes crispy and crispy, even the fish bones are crispy, the more you chew, the more delicious it is!

"Hao'er, go and tell Grandma that Auntie Xiuling is taking care of my younger brother, and she will have dinner at our house tonight."

Already planning to go home, Xiuling quickly stood up: "No, no, no, Haoer, don't go, sister-in-law, I'm going back now."

"What are you doing when you go back? I still want you to help take care of An'er. You see, the chairs where An'er was placed at home are still in the field. I'm going to cook, Yu'er needs to light a fire, and Hao'er can't hold him. "

As Lin He spoke, he motioned to Li Hao to tell him to hurry up and don't stand still.

Li Hao ran away in a flash. Seeing Xiuling hugging Li An with a troubled face, he said, "Take a look, I'm not lying to you. I really hope that you will help hold the baby for a while."

Lin He stretched out his hand and motioned Xiuling to look at the table. Things were everywhere, and there was no time to hold the child.

And now the sky is getting dark, wait a little while, Li Changhui and the others will be back, and she will be busy cooking.

This time, Xiuling only hesitated a little, and sat down again: "Well, I didn't help at first, so I came here to eat, and I'm too embarrassed."

"What kind of food is this? If it weren't for your parents, Brother Hui would have been busy for a few more days, not to mention that the cow is also your family's."

Lin He scooped up the excess oil in the pot, leaving only a little, and poured all the crucian carp into it.

Taking advantage of the frying time, Lin He found a big clean pot, put all the cooked rice in it, and put it on the stove. The stove is hot now, and the rice will not be cold even if it is placed on it.

Fry the crucian carp until golden on both sides, add water, throw two slices of ginger, and a little pepper to remove the fishy smell.

After boiling, put it into the cooking pot next to it, continue to cook the fish soup here, wash the pot next to it, and prepare to make braised fish.

Well, tonight, apart from a bowl of leftover pheasant soup from lunch and a serving of fried bamboo shoots, the other three dishes are all fish.

By the time the braised fish was cooked, Li Hao had already returned, and he was still with Li Changhui and Li Changsheng. Li Changsheng was overjoyed to see his wife here.

Lin He asked Li Changhui to scoop up water to wash his hands, and said that they could drink some wine at night.

Another bamboo shoot was fried, the leftover chicken soup at noon was hot, and the thick white and fragrant crucian carp soup was also ready.

After thinking about it, the crucian carp soup was only half filled, and the remaining half was placed in another clean big bowl. When Li Changsheng and Xiuling went back, they would take it back to their uncle and aunt.

It was Li Changsheng who helped with the work, but the cows that plowed the fields were shared by the uncle and his family. It can be said that Li Changhui saved a lot of work. A bowl of fish soup is just a small gesture, thanking the aunt and the others for their help.
