lady, please calm down

Chapter 37 The Rooster Lays Eggs
In the morning, Chen Chu picked up the utensils made by the iron shop when he went down the mountain last time in the city.

Among these utensils, some were like pot lids, and some were pipes. Yang Zhen, who was at a loss, asked Chen Chu what these objects were for, but Chen Chu was mysterious and refused to say.

Out of town at noon.

After more than an hour, several people returned to the mountain.

The new house has been completed, and Aunt Yang and others are helping the cat with cleaning, window papering and other odd jobs.

The house can be moved in immediately, but an auspicious date needs to be selected for the official housewarming.

Chen Chu specially greeted all the aunts and sisters-in-law, and then returned to the stove next to the shack with the thin iron pan he had begged for.

Replace the clay pot on the stove with an iron pot, and pick a few tomatoes, purple long eggplants, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and chicken eggs bought from the city today.

That's right, Brother Chen, the iron halberd, silver gun and jade noodle man, is going to cook in person!
Based on the simple concept of "If you treat me well, I will treat you well", Chen Chu wanted to cook a few dishes for everyone to try, in order to thank everyone for their hard work in helping him build a house recently.

Stir-frying is not a secret nowadays, and almost all major restaurants and restaurants have masters who can stir-fry.

However, in the homes of ordinary people, cooking is still rare.

One is that the casting cost of thin iron pans that require rapid heat conduction is high, and naturally the price is also expensive.

Second, the cooking that needs to be stir-fried quickly is too costly, which increases the cost of daily life.

Now, there are pots, dishes, and diners, and there is nothing missing except Chen Chu's cooking skills.
There was a rush of (hands) and running (foot) water.

Looking at the jagged potato shreds on the chopping board, Chen Chu fell into deep thought.

Those granny masters on Douyin are 'aggressive' a few times, and the potatoes become beautiful and neat potato shreds. Why is it different for me?
Is it a board problem?Or is it a knife issue?Or a potato problem?
By the way, it must be that this turtle grandson Tudou's character is too bad!

That's why it can't be cut into beautiful potato shreds.

The king of the keyboard, Chen Chu, who practiced black iron, would not admit that it was his fault even if he was killed.

"Yo, brother Chu, what are you doing?"

Aunt Yao, who came to the shack to help move things, couldn't help asking curiously when she saw Chen Chu standing in front of the chopping board with a stubborn face.

"Uh, auntie, I'll cook some dishes for you to try."

"You? Cook for us?"

Aunt Yao seemed to have seen a ghost, then turned around and walked back to the new house quickly, calling out to the women as if she had discovered a new world: "Look, look, Brother Chu wants to cook for us, hahaha."

As for what?Brother Chen is just cooking a dish, and he doesn't want to act as a childbirth act.

"Go, go and see"

The women seemed to see something strange, and walked towards this side as they spoke.

The cat staying in the new house naturally heard it too, and saw her running out of the room in a flash, overtaking the crowd in a blink of an eye, and arriving first.

"Give it to me!" The cat hurriedly stopped beside Chen Chu, reaching out to snatch the kitchen knife
Fearing that the kitchen knife would scratch her hand, Chen Chu quickly withdrew his hand, hid the knife behind his back, and asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

Mao'er turned his head, seeing the women getting closer, he couldn't help but said anxiously: "Why do the officials want to steal Mao'er's work! Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others!"

"What's so funny about me cooking a dish?" Chen Chu asked with a black question mark face.

"Officer! Give the cat some face. The official sees a man in the village walking around the stove? If others find out, they will say that the cat is a lazy woman who doesn't even cook for the official!"

"."

It turns out that a rooster laying eggs is as serious as a hen crowing.
From Mao'er's point of view, Chen Chu's cooking is like a rooster laying eggs. The officials lose face, and she is also ashamed.

The egg-laying rooster, the fighting chicken among the cocks, Chen Chu, who wanted to be a fighting chicken, failed to beat the cat in the end, and was driven aside to be a guide.

In the evening, all four dishes and one soup are finished.

Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, fried shredded potatoes, fried shredded eggplant, sweet potato balls, plus a tomato and egg drop soup.
Before calling everyone for dinner, Mao'er probably felt that his attitude was not gentle enough when he was fighting for the dominance of the kitchen, so while everyone was not paying attention, he quietly stretched out his small hand to hold Chen Chu's index finger, and shook it coquettishly.

"Officer, the cat knows that the official loves me and worries that I will be tired, so I go to cook. If this continues, the cat will be spoiled by the official, so it is not allowed to do this in the future."

The cat lay on its feet and whispered in Chen Chu's ear.

Chen Chu's ears were itchy and his body was hot from the warm breath.

Chen Chu felt that he was teased by his wife, but there was no proof.
This dinner was very delicious for everyone.

Especially the sweet and glutinous sweet potato balls are very popular among children.

After the meal, Chen Chu made a special trip to Yang Youtian's house, talking about the Dian Zhuangzi from Cai's family, and wanted Uncle Yang to accompany him to visit Luliuxu at the foot of the mountain tomorrow.

But when Yang Youtian heard it, he said with a dark face: If you go to farm under the mountain, you have to pay for grain. I, Yang Youtian, will never give a grain of grain to the false Zener in my life!If you want to go, you can go, and I won't go.

"."

Back at his shack, Chen Chu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Sensing that Chen Chu had something on his mind, Mao'er took the initiative to ask, "Officer, what's the matter?"

"I want to rent a farm at the foot of the mountain, and I wanted to ask Uncle Yang to go down the mountain to have a look tomorrow, but the uncle said that this life is not a fake, and I will give you a grain of food."

Chen Chu smiled wryly.

"What about the officer?"

"If not, I will go down the mountain by myself tomorrow."

Qi Fengling followed Uncle Yang's lead, his attitude would undoubtedly affect other people, and there was a high probability that no one would accompany Chen Chu tomorrow.

This was the first small setback that Chen Chu encountered since he went up the mountain.

The cat listened, and silently turned over from the tiger's head
The movements are as light as a real kitten, becoming more and more proficient.

Arching into his thick chest, Mao'er reached out and patted Chen Chu's back lightly, like coaxing a child.

In the past, when she was having nightmares, Chen Chu had photographed her like this, even the cat remembered it.

"Officer, the cat doesn't understand the truth, but the official can do what the official wants to do. No one will accompany you tomorrow, and the cat will accompany you!"

"haha okay."

Chen Chu rubbed Mao'er's round shoulders and said with a smile.

The little disappointment that was born just now dissipated immediately.

The next day, June nineteenth.

After Chen Chu got up, he opened the door and was taken aback for a moment.

Outside the door, Da Lang, the eldest son, Wu Kui and Peng Er were all there, as well as Yao Sanbian.

Several people were all neatly dressed, and they looked like they were about to go out.

When Chen Chu was in a daze, Da Lang had already approached him, and said in a low voice, "Father has such a temper, and he couldn't let go of those old brothers who fought and died with Jin Qi back then, so he didn't want to be a fake Qi Naliang; Don't worry about you going down the mountain alone, you called us up early this morning, and also called Zhuangjiao so that Uncle Yao can help you look at it."

Chen Chu subconsciously glanced at Yang's house, but saw that Uncle Yang was peeking in this direction. Seeing Chen Chu looking over, he quickly turned his head and put his hands behind his back, as if he had nothing to do with him.

Short oil, this little old man is quite arrogant.

Here, Mao'er packed up and walked out of the shack. Seeing that all the officials' brothers had come, he was happy but also a little disappointed.

I was already ready to share the joys and sorrows with the officials, but now it seems that she is no longer needed
Chen Chu chuckled and said, "Lady, let's go, let's go down the mountain together."

"Yeah!" Unstoppable joy flew to the corners of his brows and eyes.

The last time I went down the mountain was in February, and the cat has not seen the human world down the mountain for a long time.
Luliuwei.

Five miles north of Qifengling.

Chen Chu and the others waited at the entrance of the village for a while, and several carriages and horses drove over slowly from the north.

"Haha, brother has been waiting for a long time."

From afar, Cai Kun greeted.

Chen Chu, who came out more and more, exchanged greetings with him, and the two walked towards the village side by side.

Mao'er followed behind Chen Chu, looking around.

In February, the mountain was still a barren and desolate scene.

Now in June, the trees are lush and green, some seedlings are planted in the fields, some rapeseed is planted, and the ground seems to be covered with pieces of green brocade, which makes people feel happy when they see it.

Inside the carriage, a pair of narrow winking eyes stared at the cat for a long time through the bamboo curtain, and let out a 'hey'.

Although Mao'er's face was clean this time, the way she followed Chen Chu step by step, as well as her steps and posture, immediately made Cai Hua recognize that this was the black-faced little lady with whom she had a feud.

"Uncle Zhang, stop the car."

Cai Hua jumped down.

Speeding up the pace, he walked to the side of the cat in a while.

Mao'er noticed something was wrong, so she couldn't help but look sideways, and Cai Hua's charming melon-seeded face came into view.

Mao'er couldn't help but froze, she didn't expect to see Cai Hua here.

"Hee hee, I didn't expect to be a little beauty~" Cai Hua looked charming, and she stretched out her finger to hook the cat's chin.

But the cat was not used to her, raised his hand and slapped Cai Hua's claws away, and cursed in a low voice: "Where did you come from, crazy woman~ Do I know you well?"

After finishing speaking, he hurried a few steps and followed Chen Chu.

Cai Hua, who was still in place, rubbed her hurt hand, still smiling, and said to herself: "This little girl, if it falls into my hands, let's see how I will train you~"

Speaking of this, Cai Hua suddenly gave a smirk, turned around and called Uncle Zhang over, and whispered: "Uncle Zhang, go back and fetch Yunong, and say to pick her up to see Young Master Chen, so that she can make up for herself." fan."
