Portable Space: Reborn Little Couple

Chapter 8 Grapes for Seasoning

Barbecue is such a simple thing to do.

Mo Qianrui did a lot of barbecue in her previous life, and the simplest thing was to build a simple stove with bricks.Of course, there are more aspects, that is, go to Taobao to buy a barbecue grill or grill directly.The former uses electricity, which is convenient and hygienic.The latter uses carbon and is suitable for picnics.

"Erya, as long as you obediently listen to Sister, Sister will make you something more delicious than roasted sweet potatoes."

After subduing Erya with ease, Mo Qianrui silently calculated a few simple barbecue ingredients in his heart.

In fact, it is not entirely true that there are few condiments in Mo's house. Although oil and sugar are rare items in Mo's house, there are quite a lot of condiments beside them.After all, people rely on mountains to eat mountains, and there are many good things on the back mountains of Yangliu Village.

There is still half a jar of salt at home, and there is a lot of vinegar, but it is made from sour plums. The taste is a bit nondescript, but sour plum sauce is a good thing.The other thing is old ginger, which is abundant in Yangliu Village, and it is not worth much at all, an egg can be several catties.There are also onions and garlic. If any restaurant in the village lacks onions and garlic for cooking, even if you go to the field to pull a few, it's nothing.

However, her family has five chickens to deal with, and I am afraid that there is not enough other things in the house except salt.

Turning around and going to her room, she pretended to take something, but when she came out, Mo Qianrui was holding a small bunch of juicy grapes, which made Erya swallow her saliva: "Erya, take this to Li's house Go to Liniang and tell me that my family needs some sour plums, as well as ginger, green onion and garlic, and ask her to help us get more."

Erya was very puzzled. The things Mo Qianrui said can be seen everywhere, as long as there is time, there are as many as you want.However, remembering what Mo Qianrui said before, she didn't dare to refute, she just stepped forward to take the grapes, and trotted towards Li's house.

There is a reason why Li Niang was chosen. Although the Li family is well-off, the aunt of the Li family is even more unlucky than her aunt. After all, the aunt only gave birth to two losers, but the aunt of the Li family has three... No, If Ling Niang was born to concubines Dian, then there would only be two born to Aunt Li's own.

However, this is not important.

In the memory of the original owner, the three sisters of the Li family were all outstanding, and of course the two older sisters were more famous.

The Li family Mei Niang and Liniang are a pair of twin sisters, very pretty in appearance, not at all like the Li family aunt who is big and round.But sisters have different temperaments, Meiniang loves beauty more, but Liniang is greedy.If these grapes were delivered to Meiniang, she might not appreciate it, but Li Niang might be very moved.

While Erya ran out to change things, Mo Qianrui was not idle, she entered the portable space again, first made a simple juicer, took a few bunches of grapes and squeezed it into juice.Fortunately, the grape itself has a lot of juice. If it is like an apple, this simple juicer will not work well.

This is what Mo Qianrui can't do. It is said that it is best to add some honey to the barbecue seasoning. If it is left in the previous life, honey can be sold in any supermarket for a dozen or 20 yuan a bottle.But where should she find it now?Not to mention honey, even sugar is a luxury. If you go to someone's house as a guest, it is definitely the highest etiquette.Even the Li family is definitely not so rich.

I managed to scrape together a bowl. Fortunately, what Mo Qianrui planned to mix was barbecue sauce. If it was sweet sauce, it would definitely not be enough.

Put the grape juice aside first, then ran to the kitchen to have a look.Parents spent one night washing and removing the feathers from the chickens. Now the five feathered chickens are placed in the big wooden basin, the white flowers are very beautiful.Mo Qianrui looked closer, the chicken was washed very clean, the offal was also taken out and washed, and placed in a nearby bowl. Although these things are not rare for rich people, they are also a delicacy for the Mo family.Even the chicken feathers that fell off were not willing to throw away, they were all piled up under the eaves outside, and I wondered if A Niang planned to make some shuttlecocks to kick.

It's midsummer now, and it's not too hot in the morning, but the chicken can't be kept for too long.Mo Qianrui searched for the half jar of salt from memory, brought a kitchen knife, and deftly chopped five chickens into eight pieces.

After cutting it, soak it in a basin of salt water to marinate it. Just after tossing here, I heard movement coming from outside.

Mo Qianrui hurriedly got up, wiped her hands and ran out immediately, not forgetting to close the door of the kitchen before going out.

On the sun dam in the yard, several strong boys were either carrying or carrying them, but none of them was vacant anyway.Putting the things on the ground, he ignored Mo Qianrui, turned around and left.Mo Qianrui looked curiously at Erya who was walking last.

"Sister, I did as you said. Sister Liniang laughed so hard when she took the wild fruit." Erya pouted as she spoke, obviously still feeling wronged by the bunch of grapes.

"What about these?" Taking a cursory look, although the items on the drying dam were the same things that Mo Qianrui had mentioned before, they were quite a lot.It is estimated that let alone five chickens, even five more chickens would be enough.Of course, this is mainly because these things are not worth anything in Yangliu Village.

"I don't know, anyway, it was Sister Liniang who went out to give orders." Although Er Ya was still wronged, Mo Qianrui's prestige in her heart was not low, no matter how wronged she was, she still answered seriously .

"Stop pouting, go to the field and call your parents, and then sister will give you barbecue."

The last sentence was more effective than anything else, Er Ya immediately flew out of the yard, and disappeared into the distance in the blink of an eye.

Mo Qianrui shook her head with a wry smile, and immediately ignored them, and washed the things on the drying dam with the little water in the water tank.Fortunately, there is only some dirt on these things, and it is enough to rinse them off. If they were left in the previous life, they might have eaten a lot of chemical fertilizers and insecticides with this washing method.

This time, Erya's movements were much faster, and both parents trotted over anxiously.Seeing that Mo Qianrui was doing well, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.There was no way out, just now seeing Erya yelling for them to go home immediately, thinking that something happened at home again.However, before they were out of breath, they were startled by this bastard.

"Father, mother, our chickens are already dead. Why don't we take them to the market and sell them. Even if we don't make any money, we can exchange them for a few chicks." Mo Qianrui was straightforward To clarify the intention, she is not worried that her parents will object, presumably her parents also know that chicken is not long in this season.Instead of eating it all at once, it's better to buy chickens for money.

After hearing what Mo Qianrui said, the parents looked at each other in blank dismay, but they didn't object immediately, but discussed with each other.In the end, both of them agreed to sell the chicken in the market, but disagreed with Mo Qianrui's method of grilling.

After thinking about it for a while, Mo Qianrui simply took a few seasonings, chopped them up and mixed them briefly, marinated a small piece of chicken on the spot, and peeled a twig to skewer it.Asked A Niang to light up the fire, and let A Niang taste it when it was fully cooked.Although several seasonings are missing in the marinade and the marinade time is not long, but A Niang has never eaten such chicken, it is very fresh.

"Father and Mother, although the chicken is good, it is not a rare item. Besides, if we sell it in the market, the shredded chicken will not look good." Mo Qianrui chopped the chicken just now, and she not only The chicken was shredded and the bones were taken out.There was only half of the chicken that was originally in a large tub.Of course, she wasn't willing to tear off the meat of the chicken wings, because the skewered chicken wings tasted amazing.

A Niang first glanced at the shredded chicken dumbfounded, then recalled the taste of the skewered chicken, and finally nodded in agreement.

With A Niang's support, this matter will be much easier.Please ask Dad to chop a bamboo and chop bamboo sticks, and ask Aunt to chop up the remaining seasoning on the dam, while Mo Qianrui himself quickly mixed the barbecue sauce and marinated the chicken.Only Erya was left staring at the pot of chicken.

Everyone collected firewood with high enthusiasm, and the members of the Mo family were all people who were used to doing work. In less than half an hour, the chicken was marinated, and a large bundle of bamboo sticks had been peeled.But at this moment, the sun barely rose, and Mo Qianrui reckoned it would be around nine o'clock in the morning.

"Aniang, which nearby village has a fair today?"

There are no fixed shops in the countryside, so we can only do some small business during the market days.Generally speaking, several nearby villages go to the market together, and the time is usually every three or six nines, and sometimes every five or ten.

A Niang thought for a moment, and said: "It's also a coincidence, this should be my natal Zhuangzi's meeting, but it's still a long way from here, why don't you let your father go alone?"

How can this be?Don't look at the simple things like grilling, but it's very difficult to bake well.What's more, although her father is a farmer, he is not proficient in cooking.Therefore, Mo Qianrui must follow.In fact, she wished she could go to the market alone, so she could do more.Of course she also knew that this was impossible.

"Aniang, I can do it, but I can't let Dad build a fire to barbecue, right?" Before Mommy could speak, Mo Qianrui said again, "Let Dad pick a load, put the chicken in the front, and the bamboo sticks and firewood in the back. At that time, I will also help collect the money, and when the chicken is sold out, we will just pick a few little chickens at the market, okay?"

The last sentence touched A Niang's heart again. To be honest, she still feels sorry for the unjustly killed chickens until now.Thinking that Mo Qianrui had been running around in the village since she was a child, she was not worried that she would not have the strength to walk, so she agreed.

Father was more forthright than A Niang, and said bluntly that if Mo Qianrui couldn't walk anymore, he would just carry it back.There is no need for a burden, and a bamboo basket can handle all the things that weigh only a dozen catties.

After everything was settled, Mo Qianrui easily followed Father to the market, the poor Erya watched Father and Sister walk away helplessly, and finally burst into tears after a while: " Aniang, sister promised to give me barbecue. Erya didn't get it, Erya wants to eat barbecue!"
