Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 334 Order Peach Seedlings
Cheng He did something different for the small fish Lao Liu caught today.

For the bigger ones, weighing up to half a catty, he made a pot of wild vegetables and boiled fish.

Boiled fish with wild vegetables is not the traditional way of eating in Taohua Village, but when he watched a video once, he saw a certain ethnic minority cooking it like that, and thought it should be a good way, so he tried it himself.

In addition, the small fish is fried directly, and then returned to the pan with chili and other condiments to fry.

Cheng He asked Lao Liu and Lao Yang, and after knowing that they could also eat some spicy food, he fried it like this.

After the small fish was wrapped in flour, it was deep-fried in a frying pan until it was golden, even the fish bones were crispy, Cheng Xinxin didn't mind eating it.

After frying the small fish, put oil in the pan, add oil and chili to sauté first, then add garlic, shallots, etc., then put the small fish back into the pan and fry for a while. It is full of flavor, spicy and appetizing.

Youchizi is made by Cheng He himself.He usually likes spicy food, and even Cheng Xinxin's taste is a bit strong, so he made chili oil himself, which tastes very fragrant.

When Lao Yang saw the fish boiled with wild vegetables, his eyes lit up immediately, and he felt a strong sense of intimacy—he had eaten it many years ago.

However, cooking fish with wild vegetables many years ago, with less oil and less salt, is probably not comparable to the current practice.

Lao Yang rubbed his hands and smiled: "This dish is good, this one is good."

Old Liu chuckled, and he knew what he was thinking just by looking at him.Lao Liu didn't say anything, can the current wild vegetable boiled fish be the same as the old one?

In the past, it was a pot of wild vegetables, and I couldn’t find fish after searching for a long time. Now the wild vegetables are just a foil, just a nutritional matching element.

The fish here is first fried in oil, then boiled for a while, various seasonings are added, and a few wild vegetables such as dandelion and psyllium are added.I didn't have this condition before, but I fried it vigorously, and a little bit of oil on the soup would be good.

The soup made from the fried fish is very white, and there are some fresh wild vegetables floating around, which is pleasing to the eye.Before the pot was about to start, Cheng He deliberately put a small handful of goji berries in it to garnish it.

Cheng Xinxin saw the red goji berries dotted in the soup, so she muttered in awe: "Red grapes, red grapes, red grapes..."

This kind of little red lump tastes sweet, and the little girl likes it unexpectedly.

And the main reason is that the color is eye-catching. Among the fish and wild vegetables, the red wolfberry is very eye-catching, so it has won her favor.

Today Cheng Xinxin dug the Wucai by himself, and Cheng He added some fermented bean curd into it and fried it.

This is a recipe he heard. He heard that the stir-fried vegetables with fermented bean curd are delicious, so he tried it himself.As a result, once you try it, you will never forget it, and you will often fry it like this.

Wucai is a newly cultivated green vegetable. It has a delicate fragrance when fried, and it tastes great after adding fermented bean curd. Even Cheng Xinxin likes to eat it.

Seeing the little girl eating with gusto, Lao Liu couldn't help but smile along with her.

In fact, the last time he came to Cheng He's house for a meal, he could feel that Cheng He's food seemed to be very different, and he felt very comfortable after eating it.

So, today he had the cheek to come to dinner again, mainly thinking that Lao Yang doesn't like to go to the hospital, if it can make his health better, that would be great.

After seeing Lao Yang came to Taohua Village, his health seemed to be better.

The old brother had a thin skin, so he had the cheek to ask for it for him.People are old, and there is not much time left, but in the last days, if you can live comfortably, with less illness and less pain, that is a good thing you can't ask for.

As for the reward, he will also look at it.

Of course, that doesn't mean a dinner for one hundred and ten yuan.

After dinner, and rest for a while, Cheng He cleared the table, sent Lao Liu and Lao Yang back, and digested by the way.

Cheng Xinxin ate a lot tonight, so she wanted to go out for a walk.

Dinner is early in the countryside, and now I go out, there is still a large afterglow in the sky, many people eat outside with their rice bowls, groups of three and five, bragging about nothing, chatting and chatting while eating.

Seeing Cheng He walking over with the child, someone would ask him from time to time, "Have you eaten yet?"

Cheng He also smiled and replied: "I have eaten."

It seems that people all over the country are the same. They greet each other first by asking "Have you eaten?"

Oh yes, in the poor years before, when you go out for a walk like this, you have to smear a circle of lard on your mouth first, and you can tell others when you go out: Well, my family ate meat today-to show that the food is good .

Not anymore, it is the norm for everyone to eat well now, and there is no need to rub lard to prove it.

Cheng Xinxin took her father's hand, and while deliberately walking in a sloppy manner, she was very frightened, and at the same time rushed to talk: "Our family ate fish today."

Ah, I started to show off again, as if other people couldn't eat fish.

Listening to her childish voice, others can't help teasing her: "Xinxin, what kind of fish does your family eat?"

Cheng Xinxin didn't take it seriously, she pouted and replied, "There are two kinds of small fish to eat, one is spicy and the other is soup. They are both delicious, and my father's cooking is the best."

The cute way of talking made everyone laugh.

Then another person said: "Xinxin, my family not only has fish today, but also chicken, and shrimp. Why don't you be my girl? I'll make delicious food for you too."

Cheng Xinxin giggled, hugged her father's leg while avoiding it, and replied with a playful smile, "No."

"Why not?"

Cheng Xinxin felt a little embarrassed, hid behind her father, hugged his leg tightly, and said, "If you can't do it, you can't do it."

"Yes, Xinxin, if you become my girl, I will cook delicious food for you every day, don't ask you to do homework, don't ask you to go to school, let you play every day, and don't wake you up in the morning. What time do you sleep until, okay?"

Cheng Xinxin stopped talking, and slipped in front of her father again, raised her head and said, "Hug, Dad!"

She was afraid that others would really take her away.

Cheng He squeezed her little hand and shook it lightly, and said, "What are you hugging, others won't want you. You cry so much every day, it's not too noisy for others to hug you back!"

Cheng Xin didn't agree, she stomped her heels and said anxiously, "Daddy hug, daddy hug!"

Cheng He smiled, picked her up, scraped her nose lightly, and said, "You love to cry, stay in bed in the morning, and don't like to do homework. Why do others take you back?"

Cheng Xinxin hugged her father's neck tightly, pressed her face against his, and didn't say a word.

It made the people around laugh again.

Another person said: "Xinxin, tell me, you are beautiful, cute, and obedient, isn't that good? Your father said that you are not good at this or that. He must not like you... ..."

When Cheng Xinxin heard this, she immediately straightened her back and looked at her father without saying a word.

She was watching Papa's face—and deciding whether to cry or not.

Cheng He knew that the child could not be deceived in this regard, otherwise she would take it seriously.Maybe this is the difference between girls and boys.

He quickly patted her on the back and said, "I like it, Dad likes Xinxin the most, right? Xinxin is Dad's baby, how can you not like it!"

Only then was Cheng Xinxin relieved, smiled with satisfaction, and continued to hug her father's neck tightly.

The small appearance made people laugh again.

Lao Yang watched the people in the village enjoy themselves, the folk customs are simple, and their life is comfortable, and the feeling of family and country emerged again. This is all brought about by the prosperity of the country.

However, he didn't say it out loud, but his face looked very proud.

……

At night, after coaxing Cheng Xinxin to sleep, Cheng He turned on the computer.

Now that I have time, let’s take a look on the Internet first.

He wants to order a batch of ornamental peaches online.

It is said that with the advent of online commerce, the efficiency of modern people has really improved a lot.

If it was in the past, if he wanted to do this, he would have to ask others where there is a green garden for sale, and then he would have to spend at least a whole day driving there, and he would have to negotiate the price when he went there, and he didn't know the price. There is nothing in my heart.

What now?He only needs to enter keywords on the Internet, and the type, price, and source of goods are clear at a glance.

In this case of price transparency, the possibility of buying expensive and suffering losses is relatively less.

Of course, there may still be doubts about the quality of online sales, but if he goes to the seedling base to see it, can he be sure that the goods given to him by others are good?

In the past, after the business was completed and the money and goods were settled, people would not be recognized when they went out. Now at least there are such things as negative reviews, which can slightly restrain the merchants.

Cheng He searched out a few suppliers from the vast amount of supply information, focusing on careful comparison.

Look at the variety, look at the length of the flowering period, look at the sales volume, look at the comments, look at the physical picture, look at the feedback from the buyers, etc., anyway, there are many things to study.

He himself also looked up some knowledge about viewing peaches on the Internet.

He also looks at the price, but low price is not his ultimate goal. He still understands the principle that you get what you pay for.It takes a certain amount of luck to expect something that is too cheap to be good.

After comparing and checking for more than an hour, he thought, let's chat with each family and see what each has to say.

The customer service was very enthusiastic, and after hearing that Cheng He wanted a large amount, he took the initiative to give him many suggestions.Now is the era of free competition. If they want to complete this deal, they must show enough sincerity.

Otherwise, once the customer closes the chat page, they might not come back.

There is only one chance, and they are very enthusiastic.

About how to maintain, how to get as many flowers as possible, how to prevent insects, etc., the explanation is very detailed.

Cheng He was not sure how much he needed. After he roughly said the length of the road, the other party immediately helped him calculate it.

Ornamental peaches are usually spaced as far apart as they are too dense, not to mention expensive, and may affect growth.And if the distance is too far, it will not be able to achieve the "Hundred Miles of Peach Blossom" feeling that Cheng He needs.

All in all, not a small amount, and a great deal.The main reason is that only a section of Peach Blossom Avenue has been repaired now, and only a batch is being planted at present, and there will be follow-ups later.

In order to continue to get follow-up orders, they kindly proposed that the delivery will be delivered directly by their car instead of express delivery, and they also sent two garden masters to guide the planting on site.

Cheng He is very satisfied with this copywriting. They are professional in gardening. It would be better if someone gives advice.

So, Cheng He settled the list.

Anyway, it costs money, and it's better to do it early than late. In this regard, Cheng He doesn't like to procrastinate.

The other party's garden planting is also a contracted mountain area. After receiving such a large order, the saplings must be dug out and soaked in water to ensure that they can survive the long-distance transportation.

After processing the matter, it needs to be carefully packaged and transported by car, so this also takes time.

Because the amount is relatively large, it will take about a week to start shipping.The journey also takes a day, and the garden master will go there with the car.

This Cheng He is acceptable, and there is no problem in waiting a week, anyway, this is the process.

He paid online first. Of course, he must wait until he receives the goods and confirms that there is no problem before the other party can receive the payment.

In fact, it is precisely because of these rules and regulations that he is generally satisfied with the current online shopping services.

Things are settled here, just wait for them to deliver the goods.
