farmer legend

Chapter 48
"It's noon in a blink of an eye. You two can't leave, Erbo and Wulong. Come and help make the fish! Oolong, you help remove the scales and gills of the fish, and Erbo, you can cook. I heard that your You are amazing at cooking, I want to taste your cooking today!"

"Hahaha, of course! I'm always invited to be the cook for weddings and funerals in the village. How could my cooking skills be so poor?" The second uncle took the shovel raised by Tang Shenyuan without hesitation, and left the job of handling fish to Tang Shenyuan and him. Oolong, as for Father Tang, he was chatting with Xu Yufeng and the others in the living room.

Li Jiyi couldn't sit still, so he also ran to the kitchen to watch.

"What kind of fish are there in the whole fish feast?" Li Jiyi asked.

"Braised carp, steamed grass carp, steamed African crucian carp... pickled cabbage fish, boiled fish, grilled fish..." Tang Shenyuan memorized the names of the dishes one by one. These were all told by his second uncle, and he didn't know what happened. He just remembered that if he had such a good memory before, he wouldn't do so badly in the college entrance examination, at least he could go to key universities like 211 and 985, and he wouldn't be unable to find a job after he came out. up.

But if he finds a job, Tang Shenyuan will definitely not return to his hometown to farm, let alone a series of things that will happen next!It can be said that Tang Shenyuan's life has undergone tremendous changes because of the small snail shell, and his life trajectory is completely different from that of ordinary people!

There are not only delicious fruits in the snail shell, but also fine wine, calligraphy, paintings and antiques, but Tang Shenyuan dared not take them all out because he was afraid of causing an uproar.

"Wow, it sounds delicious..." Li Jiyi actually wiped his saliva...

"Oh, it's so dirty, get out of here..." Tang Shenyuan was disgusted, "You're affecting my brother's mood for cooking, if you don't go out, I'll go out, let you do it!"

Depend on!Li Jiyi cursed inwardly, how can a buddy know how to cook, this kind of thing is only done by domestic servants!But you can't say this, otherwise Tang Shenyuan will think that he called him a servant, and you don't know if you will be able to eat in the end... Get out obediently, of course you have to get out in style...

Zila!The oil in the pot was boiling hot, the second uncle poured a pot of fish into the pot, there was a sharp sound, and a thick oily smoke came out, which could make people blindfolded, but the second uncle Tang Qingzhong seemed to have no effect at all. No, he was doing all kinds of movements very seriously, adding seasonings such as salt, ginger, onion, etc. The series of movements flowed smoothly and naturally, without any expression of consideration, just like fish swimming in water.

Like a duck to water!That's the situation.

"Second Uncle looks so powerful!" Tang Shenlan gave her hands, that is, to light the fire. She was lighting the fire by the stove, and she could clearly watch Uncle Er cooking, so she exclaimed.

"Hey, do you want to learn, little girl? If you want to learn from Erbo, I can teach you..."

"Oh, no! I don't want to learn. After learning how to cook, I will definitely have to cook at home, so I don't want to learn!"

"Hehe, you ghost girl, are you too lazy?" The second uncle joked: "That's right, our Shenlan girl is going to go to college, why do you want to study this? After graduation, you will be as promising as your brother, then we Honghe Village has even more hope...hahaha!"

"Hehehe, of course!" Tang Shenlan now admires her elder brother Tang Shenyuan very much. He went to an ordinary secondary school and couldn't even find a job after graduation, but not long after returning home, he let the family Life has undergone earth-shaking changes...

"Second Uncle, do you want to cut up this African crucian carp?" Tang Shenyuan asked outside.

"Oh? African crucian carp! No, this is for steaming!" The second uncle replied.

"Sauerkraut fish" doesn't matter whether Tang Shenlan wants to learn it or not, the second uncle said: "It is best to use grass carp, add fish sauerkraut, garlic, ginger, pepper... quickly pour the hot oil into the fish soup just now, it is delicious The pickled fish is considered complete."

"It's so troublesome!" Tang Shenlan said.

"Hehe, if you want to eat delicious food, how can you get it without a little trouble? Isn't there a saying that goes: You get what you sow..."

"Unexpectedly, the second uncle can also talk idioms..."

"Uh, what's the girl talking about? Isn't the second uncle teaching you how to cook?" The second uncle choked on Tang Shenlan.

"Hmph! I don't want to learn!"

……

"Wow, it smells so good!"

An older woman's voice came from outside.

"It's the chopping board woman!" Tang Shenlan was the quickest to respond, and knew who was coming by hearing the voice.

The chopping board woman is the nickname given to Tang Guangan's grandmother by the villagers. This person has a sneaky personality, especially when he gets old. For the old, it is her kind of person who spends all day in the village. Walking around the village is to see what someone has and touch it.You are like a chicken raised by someone else, she will steal a few eggs, and she will pick some melons and fruits planted in someone's field.

So where did she get the nickname "Chopping Board Lady"?This goes back more than ten years ago, when Tang Shenyuan was still young, and it was a New Year's Eve, and she was wandering around with nothing to do. At this time, which one is not the chopping block of the [-]th year-can't be idle!Tang Qing'an's family was no exception. Tang Qing'an's wife was chopping vegetables with a chopping board, and Tang Guang'an's grandma was coming!
As I said before, she is a person who has nothing to do and is greedy for petty gains. When she came to Tang Qing'an's house and saw the delicious food and drink, of course she would not return it empty-handed, and it was the [-]th day of the year, and Tang Qing'an was not good at contradicting her. I had to let her eat, drink, and take food, but Tang Qing'an's wife quit. After going out, she told the people in the village that, and everyone knew the nickname "Chopping Board Wife".

"As soon as the chopping board rings, the chopping board woman will come to the door" This is everyone's understanding.Because of her greedy personality, even Tang Guangan's family didn't like her, and even her wife Tang Haihua didn't live with her.Today is not the New Year's Day, Tang Shenyuan's house is full of smoke from the chimney, and the chopping board is ringing non-stop. The chopping board lady heard the sound from a long distance away, and Tang Guangming said that Tang Shenyuan's family caught a lot of fish today... So So I decided to come over.

"What delicious food are you doing?"

"Oh, it's the aunt who came..." Tang Shenyuan had to get up to deal with it.

Father was chatting with Xu Yufeng and the others, while mother went to the yard to pick vegetables. Although it was a whole-fish feast, Xu Yufeng and the others were all thinking about the taste of vegetables, and they couldn't do without vegetables.

"Brother Asheng, I heard that you caught a lot of fish in the reservoir today? You also gave Guangming four big fish..."

It's over, this is a door-to-door debt!Tang Shenyuan thought to himself.Why did you recruit such a great god, and you still come to entertain guests? There will be good things when she comes?It's better to send her away as soon as possible!Tang Shenyuan made up his mind.

"Grandma, what's the matter with you coming to my house?"

"You child, can't my mother-in-law come to your house if she has nothing to do?" The chopping woman is familiar with herself and has a thick skin. She walked into the kitchen before Tang Shenyuan could speak. The kitchen and living room of Tang Shenyuan's house It is not in one place, but another one-story small house is built outside. "Oh, it's all fish!"

"Auntie, you are here!" The second uncle is a generation lower than him, so he has to say hello when he sees her, otherwise, when she goes out, I don't know what he will say about himself. It's good to say that you don't recognize anyone, and pass you It would be miserable to be a white-eyed wolf!

"It's so delicious." Seeing several pots of cooked fish on the stove, she held a pair of chopsticks by herself. Tang Shenyuan and the others didn't have time to stop them from talking, so she took a piece and ate it, "Well, really Delicious, second child, your craftsmanship is still so good!"

"Bitter!" The second uncle was about to cry, this is for A Sheng to entertain guests, and you eat it first as soon as you come... Li Jiyi was also dumbfounded, he came in to see and see
The second uncle's cooking skills, he really can't stand the smell outside.

"Damn!" He slowly approached Tang Shenyuan and asked in a suppressed voice, "Who is this old woman?"

"My mother-in-law!" Tang Shenyuan touched his nose in embarrassment, isn't it too embarrassing? "It's not my kiss!" This sentence must be said, otherwise Li Jiyi might think of where to go. "I'm so senior, I'm too embarrassed to drive her away..."

"Isn't this too weird?"

Tang Shenyuan ignored Li Jiyi, and said to the chopping lady: "Grandma, I have a guest to entertain today, look..."

"Oh, okay, I won't bother you..." Although I said this, I didn't mean to leave at all. I didn't stop the chopsticks in my hand. After eating this, I tried that again. A good fish, messed up by her here and there, how can it be served on the table? "Mmm. Delicious!"

Tang Shenlan's eyes were about to burst into flames!If it wasn't for the big brother's face, she would have exploded a long time ago.

Oolong was also dumbfounded, he never imagined that Tang Guang'an's grandma would be so stingy, she didn't care about her status at all, she just ate free food, and even disturbed other people's entertaining guests!Oolong knew that the guests from Tang Shenyuan's house were big bosses, and the two cars they drove were worth several million, and I heard that they donated several million to the village for road repairs...

"Grandmother, I'll pack it for you, you can take it home and eat it!" Tang Shenyuan had no choice, since she had already eaten those dishes anyway, and she wouldn't leave without something, so luckily I packed it for her take it away!
"Well, this is good! Brother Asheng is generous enough, he is worthy of being a college student! The donation for road construction in the village is 200 million yuan!" The chopping woman smiled like a chrysanthemum, not to mention how brilliant it is!

"Finally sent her away!" Tang Shenyuan was sweating like he had done farm work for hours.

"It's so cool, let's go, and bring a few more fish..." Li Jiyi looked at the back of the chopping woman, and cast his eyes on the ground in admiration.

The chopping lady walked proudly, not only had a plastic bag in her hand, but also a few fish that were strung with straw... A big harvest, definitely a big harvest!More than Tang Guangming!

"Let's do some more!" Tang Shenyuan spread his hands and said to Uncle Wulong and the others.
