Chapter 72 - Tough, Braised Fish Nuggets
What Li Xiaomei said immediately made Liu Fangfang feel extremely depressed, and she just realized that the property in the river is not owned by the public, everyone can salvage it according to their ability, but just now I was only looking for trouble for the two of them. , I forgot about this for a while!
“Humph~!” Liu Fangfang knew that she didn’t have any reason to argue any further, raised her neck and pulled Zhang Yun away with a contemptuous expression.
“It’s inexplicable!” Li Xiaomei looked at the figures of the two people who had gone away, with a dissatisfied expression. Usually, the two of them looked down on the girls in the village because of their identities from the city, and did not want to play with them.
Li Xiaomei knew that her family was poor, so few people were willing to have close contact with her, and she would never take the initiative to stick her hot face on her cold buttocks. Many girls in the village complied with the female educated youth from the city, trying to gain benefits from this. Li Xiaomei also knew that they looked down on her, so instead of spending that time, she might as well help her family do more farm work.
Originally, she usually adhered to the principle of doing more than one less thing, and did not want to provoke them. On weekdays, when they said something taunting, she did not take it to heart, and did not want to cause trouble to the family, but today, they are again Come to provoke, and the object is still sister Jing, who is very good to her, she is naturally not happy.
Jing Qingxin looked at Li Xiaomei’s self-defense while frying her hair, she couldn’t help ironing, she didn’t expect Xiaomei to have such a pungent side, but Jing Qingxin thought it was good, girls who are too soft are easy to be bullied!
Li Xiaomei turned around and looked at Sister Jing looking at her with a smile on her face, her face blushed instantly, and she said softly with some embarrassment: “They just like to look for trouble, and they are usually very charming in the village, especially that Liu Fangfang.”
“I see, huh, but it’s good for you to go back like this! Just forbearance will only make others think that you are easy to bully!” Jing Qingxin said with a smile.
“Well, I know! Sister Jing~” Li Xiaomei replied happily, as long as Sister Jing didn’t think her temper was too strong, after all, women nowadays are all about being docile and well-behaved.
Afterwards, the two returned home happily, and did not take the episode that happened in the middle of it to heart, they had long since forgotten about it!
At this moment, Jing Qingxin is busy showing off her skills and cooking a sumptuous dinner! The ingredients are abundant, and Jing Qingxin’s cooking skills are also very pleasant.
Seeing Jing Qingxin’s smile on his face, Gao Shen was also deeply infected, and his mood was also very happy. He sat happily in the stove and burned the fire. When he saw Jing Qingxin brought back the six big fish, he was also stunned. But when she thought of her ability, she instantly understood.
Of the six fish, Jing Qingxin originally wanted to give three to Li Xiaomei, but after several pushes and refusals, Li Xiaomei only took the smallest two fish. No matter how Jing Qingxin persuaded her, she was not happy.
In the end, Jing Qing didn’t want to push any further, thinking about making more at night and sending it to the Li family. Although they might get fish to eat, but based on her understanding of the diligent and frugal style of the Li family, it is estimated that nine out of ten they Will save to make it to eat!
The remaining four fish, because they were all injured by tree branches, were almost dying when they got home, and they could no longer be raised. The largest fish weighed seven or eight pounds. Jing Qingxin cut it into pieces and made a braised stew. The fish, and the fish head is used to simmer into fish soup. The remaining three are stored in the ‘Liuguang Jin’ and eaten slowly. Fortunately, the space is in a constant temperature state, which can keep fresh, otherwise you have to cook them all. That shouldn’t be boring.
Because there are only two stove pits on the stove, and one pot is stewing fish head soup, she lost some dried shiitake mushrooms and wolfberries. These are some dry goods she bought along the way when she was shopping for grains. She thought it would be easy to store and eat.
On the other side of the stove, Jing Qingxin is making braised fish cubes. It would be great if there was tofu, and braised fish with tofu is even more delicious! She had no choice but to make a simple braised fish nugget. Jing Qing sighed in her heart what a pity! Even with good cooking skills, it is a distressing event without sufficient ingredients!
With the tumbling of the pot, bursts of fish fragrance scattered throughout the stove room. Jing Qing moved quickly, and quickly prepared the braised fish pieces. The corners of his mouth were raised lightly, and he took a piece, exhaled the heat, and handed it to Gao Shen. mouth, looking expectantly.
Gao Shen silently chuckled, opened his mouth to eat the fish pieces, and then praised with a smile: “It’s delicious!”
Gao Shen is not false, he has eaten this braised fish before, but it is not as delicious as the braised fish made by Jing Qingxin at the moment!
Hearing this, Jing Qingxin immediately smiled. What compliment can be more satisfying than the praise of her sweetheart for the meal she made? !
Immediately, Jing Qingxin hurriedly steamed the white rice for the two of them. There were only two stoves, so she had to steam the rice at the end. Jing Qingxin divided half of the prepared large pot of braised fish into the other. The vegetables are placed in iron porcelain pots, and then the pots are covered separately to block the heat.
Then, Jing Qingxin began to fiddle with the Zheergen that she picked up. She was still quite used to the name of “Zheergen”, but she was not used to the local common name.
Jing Qingxin quickly cleaned the Zheergen, perhaps because it was wild, the aroma of Zheergen seemed to be stronger. Then, Jing Qingxin made a cold Zheeren with the condiments she brought.
Because I picked a full basket, although it was cleaned and damaged a bit, I could still make two plates. In the afternoon, Jing Qingxin had agreed with Xiaomei. After finishing, I would give them a plate to taste. taste.
Jing Qingxin put the ready-made braised fish pieces and the cold folded ears into the bamboo basket, greeted Gao Shen, and sent them to the Li family next door.
When I walked to the Li’s yard, I saw Li Xiaomei was chopping hogweed in the yard, and white smoke was coming from the chimney of the stove next to me. I thought Aunt Li was cooking dinner, because the Li family had to go to work and go home. Naturally, the cooking time would be later, but Jing Qingxin was able to catch up, and he could add two dishes to the Li family in the evening.
“Xiaomei, hey~ I promise you, bring it in and try my craft.” Jing Qing laughed briskly and handed the bamboo basket with one hand.
Li Xiaomei happily took it, looked at the iron basin in the basket, and said repeatedly: “No~ Sister Jing, you have already given two fish to our family, why did you send the finished fish? You take it back and keep it for you. Eat it yourself.”
“Xiaomei, don’t refuse first, after listening, do you want to store a dish in today’s weather, maybe it will go bad the next day, there are four fish in my house, how can I eat it, and it’s just me and Gao Shen, so , don’t shirk it, bring it in and let Uncle Li and Aunt Li have a taste of my craftsmanship.” Jing Qing said with a smile, he is really a simple person, even if you send a dish or two, you have to move it. Love and reason.
“Okay, thank you Sister Jing.” Li Xiaomei couldn’t take away Sister Jing’s kindness any more, so she had no choice but to continue, thinking that she must help Sister Jing a lot in the future.
