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

Chapter 63 Chapter 63

When Li Changhui sent the fish to the kitchen, Cuiniang, who had been talking to Lin He just now, immediately fell silent, and waited until Li Changhui finished talking to Lin He and left, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin He was not surprised when he saw it. Li Changhui didn't like to laugh, he didn't like to talk, and he was tall.

Li Changhui went to visit his aunt next door, and took care of An'er by the way. After all, Li Xiufen was still sick, and it was too tiring to hold An'er all the time.

Five palm-sized crucian carp and two chopstick-long carp, Lin He brought green onion and ginger over, and told Cui Niang that the scales of the fish should be scraped clean, and the black film in the belly of the fish should be removed, otherwise the fish would have a bitter smell.

Wash it again with clean water, marinate it with shredded ginger and a little white wine, and add a little salt to the carp.

They had a lot of food for lunch today. Besides pheasant, rabbit and fish, they also bought a roast goose. If there were no accidents, Liu Cheng and his wife would also buy some meat.

Looking at it this way, there are a lot of dishes at noon, and almost all of them are meat dishes. If the quantity is large, the portion can be reduced.

When preparing these things, Lin He also told Cui Niang the precautions, such as frying crucian carp in oil until both sides are golden, and then making soup, it is thick, white and delicious.

For example, steamed fish needs to remove the fishy smell in advance. After steaming, you must put some green onion and ginger shreds, and then you must remember to pour hot oil, otherwise it will not taste good.

Stewed pheasant and hare, boiled and then fried, add some bean paste or soy sauce for coloring, so that there is no fishy smell when stewed.

But today's rabbit will be fried and eaten.

Most people like clear stew, but the so-called clear stew is not just boiled directly. On the contrary, clear stew actually tests cooking skills more.

On the contrary, it is the one taught by Lin He, which is simple and convenient, and will not smell fishy.

Hearing what Lin He said, Cui Niang couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Biao sister-in-law is really virtuous, we usually eat in a hurry, cooking is fine, how can I think about it."

We all know that the restaurant's food is delicious, full of color, fragrance, and taste, but in fact, most people in the village, especially those from poor families, just eat for a simple and easy way, as long as they can eat enough.

Lin He smiled: "I don't cook these dishes often on weekdays, so I just want to make these dishes today."

Liu Qiang sent over all the processed pheasants and rabbits just now, and asked if there was anything in the field for stewing soup, but he said that there were only radishes.

At this time, the radish was already old, and the inside of the radish was hollow. The Liu family had a lot of fields and was busy all the time, so they didn't have time to go to the mountain to dig bamboo shoots.

But Cuiniang came over with a bag of dried mushrooms. Lin He didn't know her, but Cuiniang said that she usually eats them and they are not poisonous.

If there is no time to soak slowly, soak the mushrooms directly in boiling water, soak them in a few minutes, clean them and stew them with pheasant.

After a while, Liu Chengcheng came back and was very happy to see Li Changhui and the others. He hurriedly introduced his daughter-in-law and Liu Quan who met for the first time.

Liu Cheng, Liu Qiang, Liu Quan, Liu Xiang, Liu Dong, except for a cousin who married far away, all the children of the aunt's family recognized them all.

Lin He's guess was right, Liu Guo indeed bought meat, and a catty of fat meat was also used to boil oil.

Half a catty of lean meat was mentioned by Lin He yesterday, and it was specially cooked meatballs for Li Xiufen, and there were also a few catties of pork ribs.

In fact, it was quite a lot, but compared to what Lin He and the others brought over, it was really not much, and all the butchers sold today were all money from cousin Changhui.

Liu Cheng was a little embarrassed: "The temperature has started to heat up these days, and we can't buy too much meat. We originally thought that it would be fine to buy some for my mother every morning."

"That's right, buying too much is a waste." Lin He nodded: "Go and do other things first, your cousin is with your aunt, and Zhang Yun is here to help."

Zhang Yun, Liu Cheng's daughter-in-law.

I am 23 this year and have two children. It may be due to working all the year round, and I have not been able to cultivate well after giving birth. My figure is a little bloated and my expression is a little haggard. I look a lot older than my actual age.

Thinking of this, Lin He was secretly happy. This is the benefit of Li Changhui's age. She is only a 15-year-old young girl, and others have to teach her sister-in-law to do it.

Moreover, Li Changhui has three sons, and his relationship with his parents is not good. She, a fake daughter-in-law, has no worries about being born.

Today's lunch was very rich. I stewed a pheasant, ate half a rabbit, fried spicy rabbit diced, and marinated the rest with a little salt. They can save it for them to eat slowly tomorrow.

Lin He thought about the spare ribs and decided to cook them in braised sauce. After all, there was already chicken and fish soup.

They also brought Xiaoyuer. While teaching the two sisters-in-law, Lin He told them that Xiaoyuer can also make soup in this way, and how to deal with it.

At the back, Lin He simply stood aside and directed, leaving only Zhang Yun and Cuiniang to do it themselves.

They are all cooks since they were young, at most they are not as willing to use oil and ingredients as Lin He.

But today's things were almost all brought by Lin He and the others themselves. Even if they felt pain in their hearts, they were smart enough not to show it. Lin He did whatever he asked him to do.

While steaming the carp, he also steamed an egg for Li An. Liu Cheng went to the field to pull some vegetables and came back. Knowing that the vegetables in Lin He's house were not edible, he went to pull a lot of them, saying that he wanted them to take them home. go.

Afterwards, he went out for a while, and before lunch, he brought back a basket of eggs for Lin He and the others to take with them when they returned.

Lin He didn't refuse, since he moved around with his aunt's house, the only way to maintain the relationship is if you come and go.

Today's lunch is very rich. In Li Yu's words, even if it is Chinese New Year, I have never eaten so much meat.

The eleven members of the Liu family, plus Li Changhui and the other five, couldn't sit at one table, so they simply divided up a third of everything and put a group of children on another table.

There were no adults watching, so they didn't dare to give them fish, so they distributed most of the roast goose to the children, and all the steamed fish were on the adults' side.

Only Li An was hugged by Li Changhui all the time, and Lin He sat next to him, feeding Li An a mouthful of steamed eggs from time to time, and eating a bit of fish meat that had been picked clean.

Li Xiufen was also helped to the table to eat. Lin He specially cooked meatballs for her, finely chopped lean meat and minced ginger, added some eggs and starch, and cooked a la carte leaves.

The lean meat that Liu Cheng bought was only half-cooked, and it was enough for Liu Xiufen to eat alone, and the others had other dishes.

The meatballs could have been cooked at night, but Lin He thought about buying them all, so she just made some, mainly because she was worried that Zhang Yuncuiniang and the others cooked the meatballs too rough.

Crucian carp soup is very popular, and each person served a small bowl on the table, which was still a bit small. Everyone just tasted it and felt it was gone.

Maybe it was because she was in a good mood, or maybe it was because the food was too delicious today. Li Xiufen ate the meatballs in her bowl, and also ate a lot of other meat and vegetables.

This made Liu Changming and the children very happy. You must know that when you were the most ill a few days ago, you couldn't even eat.

A group of people chatted and laughed, and after eating lively, everyone was satisfied.

Of course, after hearing Lin He talk about Li Changhui's great achievements in hunting, everyone admired Li Changhui, his cousin.
