"Why are you here together?"
Soon, a few people came upstairs. Ren Jie probably felt embarrassed about eating, so he bought two cantaloupes and two pineapples.
Just in time, I can cut it into a fruit plate.
Chen Yan said:
"Ren Jie and I wandered around the streets for a while. We got hungry and looked for several places to eat. We were worried that the car would overturn. We asked Director Zeng where we could find good food, but she couldn't tell. So we decided to come here.
Forget it, it might be overturned elsewhere, but with my brother-in-law’s craftsmanship, there’s absolutely no problem.”
In the kitchen, Lin Xu smiled and felt that her sister-in-law was overthinking.
When I flipped the car, I was even afraid of myself.
"Dundun, why don't you welcome auntie when she comes?"
"Dundun, come let me give you a hug. I've been so busy lately that I don't even have time to play with my eldest nephew."
Dundun was lying on the sofa, watching the cat and mouse and waiting for the dried fish, when he saw his aunt and uncle coming, and quickly went upstairs along the stairs.
Compared to the living room, your own room is safer.
"Hahaha, don't even think about running away. A kitten that won't be held by your aunt is not a good cat."
Chen Yan chased after her like a crazy woman.
However, as soon as she walked up a few stairs, there was a sound of a door closing above.
Obviously, Dundun closed the door to his room.
Chen Yan was stunned:
"When did it learn to lock the door? Isn't it too smart?"
Shen Baobao smiled proudly:
"Nonsense, don't even look at who Dundun's parents are."
Hmm, can the child raised by Xu Bao and I not be smart?
She said to Chen Yan:
"Don't always act like a crazy woman. I've checked a lot of information these days and it says that cats are prone to depression due to stress. I don't want my little baby to be depressed every day..."
"I don't want to tease it."
Baby Shen came upstairs, opened the door of Dundun's room, saw the little guy hiding in the cat castle, and said softly:
"Dundun, my aunt is playing with you. She has no ill intentions. You don't have to be afraid. If you want to dislike her, how about Mommy finding an opportunity to prank her?"
Soon, a furry paw stretched out from the cat castle.
Reach a consensus!
In the kitchen, Lin Xu opened the refrigerator and rummaged through the ingredients at home.
Now that four more people are here, eating dried tofu cold is definitely not enough.
He rummaged for a while and took out a chilled sea bass from the refrigerator.
This is a ration prepared for Dundun to prevent the little one from going hungry in the middle of the night, but since the adults don’t have enough food today, they can only borrow its fish for emergency purposes.
Wait until tomorrow to buy fresh fish, buy one or two to eat.
I believe Dundun will not refuse such a good deal.
Make a cut on the back of the sea bass, clean the inside and outside, change the cut and marinate it with onions, ginger, peppercorns and millet, and make a grilled fish later to try.
While the fish was being marinated, he took out a pack of artificial meat from the refrigerator.
It is said to be artificial meat, but it is actually a kind of dried product made from soybeans, which is quite common in the Central Plains.
This is my mother’s favorite ingredient. After it’s soaked, it tastes great whether it’s made into steamed bun fillings or stews.
Lin Xu soaked it in water. The stew won't work, but you can blanch the water, fry some chili oil and pour it on top to make a snack similar to spicy strips.
It’s not necessarily how delicious it is, but it’s enough for drinking.
"How can I help you?"
Ren Jie took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and washed his hands with hand sanitizer in front of the faucet at the kitchen door, ready to help.
After Chen Yan gave up teasing Dundun, she stood on the balcony with Zeng Xiaoqi and Chen Yuanyuan, taking pictures of the city night scene with her mobile phone. While taking pictures, she chattered and asked Zeng Xiaoqi about her tips for shooting night scenes.
Officer Ren was left alone and had no choice but to come to the kitchen to help.
But there aren’t many places that need help in the kitchen.
Lin Xu thought for a while and took out the unused electric baking pan that Baby Shen bought from the cabinet. After unpacking it, he separated the base and the baking pan:
"Brother-in-law, please wash this baking pan. We will make Wanzhou grilled fish later."
It is said to be Wanzhou grilled fish, but it is just an imitation. Now that the ingredients are not available at home, Lin Xu does not know how to make it, so he can only make it according to the dry pot method.
"Leave it to me, I'm the best at this job. When I was in the honor guard, we also bought electric baking pans to cook food secretly, and I was responsible for cleaning them every time."
Those responsible for cleaning are usually those with the worst cooking skills.
No wonder my sister-in-law figured out my identity when I made pancakes.
In order to prevent everyone from being full, Lin Xu specially mixed some noodles and prepared to bake some thin noodle cakes. After the grilled fish is finished, he will add some soup and cut the cakes into strips. The taste should not be bad.
After the dough is mixed, place it in a basin to relax for a while, so that the baked cake will be softer.
He looked at the soaked artificial meat and saw that it was soft, so he boiled a pot of water.
While the water is boiling, take out the artificial meat and cut it all into diamond-shaped slices, which is easier to clip.
Cut it and put it into a basket. The water in the pot has already boiled. Add two spoons of salt to it. This will make the artificial meat taste stronger.
Stir a few times with a spoon to dissolve the salt, pour the artificial meat in, and continue stirring.
Blanch for about 30 seconds, wait until all the artificial meat has spread out, put it back into the basket, and rinse it again under the faucet to prevent the artificial meat from losing its taste due to overheating.
Then put salt, monosodium glutamate, white sugar and light soy sauce into the basin, then add a tablespoon of chili powder, a tablespoon of cumin powder and a small spoon of thirteen spices.
Finally, burn some cooking oil and pour it on top, cover it with a lid, and let the aroma of the chili oil simmer in.
"Oh, it smells weird, like the spicy strips I ate when I was a kid."
Ren Jie, who was washing the baking pan, couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
It’s delicious when you make it casually. My brother-in-law’s craftsmanship is really enviable.
Lin Xu said:
"This is different from spicy tiao. Spicy tiao is actually more complicated than this, because it not only requires red oil, but also has enough chewiness."
While talking, he plugged in the electric baking pan and started to preheat it.
Then take out the dough that has rested for a while, roll it into long strips and divide it into small pieces, then roll it out thinly with a rolling pin, put it into the preheated electric baking pan, and choose to heat it on both sides.
This kind of pancake is cooked in just one minute, and even the step of turning it over can be omitted.
Lin Xu was branding quickly, and Ren Jie on the side was dumbfounded.
He always felt that making this kind of pancake was a big undertaking, but he didn't expect it to be so simple and easy. He remembered that he was still kneading the dough just now. How long ago, the first pancake was already out of the pan.
"Brother, what are you doing? Ouch, this artificial meat looks so delicious. Give me a piece of cake to try."
After Chen Yuanyuan took the night scene, she was just about to sit on the sofa and edit the photos when she smelled the spicy smell wafting from the kitchen, so she followed the smell and walked in.
She washed her hands casually, put a piece of freshly baked noodle cake on a plate, carried it to the kitchen workbench, and used chopsticks to put some artificial meat and cold dried tofu in it, and also specially put some
Crispy fried dried chili segments.
Then he rolled up the dough, lined it with kitchen paper, and took a big bite:
"It's delicious. Brother, your cooking skills are amazing."
"There's no skill involved. If you want to eat it, just make the burrito again. It's not difficult anyway."
As Lin Xuzheng was talking, Zeng Xiaoqi walked into the kitchen, and when Chen Yuanyuan was about to take a second bite, she leaned over and took a big bite of the burrito:
"It tastes good when rolled up. I'll have one too."
Chen Yuanyuan looked at the big gap in the burrito and handed the burrito in her hand helplessly:
"No matter what you do, the first place to grab food... you can eat this, I will roll another one."
Zeng Xiaoqi was overjoyed:
"Sister Yuan is the best to me. If you were a boy, I would definitely marry you."
Chen Yuanyuan curled her lips:
"If I were a man, I would never marry you."
"Why?"
"Afraid of wronging the child."
Zeng Xiaoqi:??????
Why do you guys named Chen have such vicious mouths?
Not long after, Chen Yan walked in and wanted to eat burritos. Lin Xu pointed helplessly at the fish in the basin and said:
"The grilled fish will be ready soon, don't worry, my brother-in-law and I can't finish such a big fish."
Seeing that there were several kilograms of sea bass, the ladies walked out of the kitchen, each holding burritos, and went upstairs to visit Dundun's room.
Lin Xu finished frying the noodles, then heated up the pan, added some oil again after sliding the pan, then took the marinated seabass out of the basin and removed the onion and ginger marinade.
When the oil is hot, put the fish in and fry.
When there are no conditions for grilling fish, you can still make delicious grilled fish by frying it.
Just put the fish into the pot and let it fry slowly.
Taking advantage of this time, Lin Xu put on insulated gloves, opened the oven, and took out the dried fish baked inside.
The whitebait was baked until it was dry and hard, and a lot of roasting juice dripped from the baking pan.
Lin Xu placed the grill on the workbench to speed up the cooling of the dried fish, so that Dundun could eat it as quickly as possible.
If he likes this kind of fish, he can cook more in the store later so that the little one can satisfy his addiction to fish.
After taking out the fish, shake the wok and fry the fish head and tail. Then turn it over and start frying the meat inside the fish.
He took out some onions from the refrigerator, peeled them and cut them into shreds, and evenly placed them on the baking sheet.
When cooking grilled fish, you can’t miss onions.
This can not only increase the onion flavor of the fish, but most importantly, it can effectively prevent sticking to the pan.
Ren Jie on the side said:
"It seems quite simple, but why is it not as easy as you once you get started?"
Regardless of whether he was in the escort team or the police academy, he tried to cook grilled fish on a baking pan, intending to achieve the freedom of grilling fish in his dormitory, but he failed every time.
As for mutton skewers and Teppanyaki, you can easily make them in your dormitory as long as you buy the right sauce.
But when eating in the dormitory, either it is not done well and causes diarrhea, or it is too fragrant and attracts the boss to come and punish it. Anyway, there is no good ending.
Lin Xu fried both sides of the fish, and the fish was almost raw by now.
But it’s not edible yet, it has to be topped with grilled fish sauce and then boiled.
He put the fish in a baking pan, and logically should put some blanched lotus root slices, celery, gluten, bean skin and other ingredients, but he didn't have any at home, so he could only put some shredded artificial meat.
After placing it, put the wok on the stove again, put some lard in it, and heat it together with the oil for frying the fish.
Add a tablespoon of dry pot sauce and a small spoon of bean paste to the pot, stir-fry until red oil turns red, then add onions, ginger, garlic and a large spoon of dried chili peppers.
Stir-fry until fragrant, add two bowls of water, simmer over high heat, add some garlic paste, and then add salt, sugar, thirteen-spice light soy sauce, five-spice powder and other seasonings.
Simmer for a few minutes to bring out the aroma.
Then pour it into the grilled fish.
Bring the baking sheet to the table, put the artificial meat and cold dried tofu on the table, then pick out some refreshing kimchi from the kimchi jar, and put the baked noodles on it.
"Let's start eating!"
While everyone was sitting around the dining table, Dundun also sneakily ran down the stairs.
Baby Shen quickly took the baked dried whitebait to increase the bond between mother and child:
"Come on, baby, mommy has baked these for you. If you want to eat them, I'll give them to you every day, okay?"
Dundun looked at the dried fish in front of him with suspicion.
According to its understanding of mommy, it is difficult to make this kind of dried fish.
However, as a kitten that promotes family harmony, it hesitated for a moment and rubbed its head against Baby Shen's palm.
"Baby is so good!"
Dundun lowered his head and licked the dried fish and tasted it. His eyes that were originally squinted suddenly widened. He lowered his head and picked up one in his mouth, and started eating it in big mouthfuls.
It squatted in front of its small dining table to eat fish, and Lin Xu and the others also started eating.
Open the beer and fill the cup.
Shen Baobao and Chen Yan, who could not drink because they were driving, chose kvass.
Everyone first raises their glasses and takes a sip, then eats with chopsticks.
The spicy and chewy cold dried tofu, the spicy and delicious artificial meat, the sour and appetizing kimchi, and the grilled fish simmering in the pot are all very delicious.
Chen Yan tasted the grilled fish and said to Lin Xu:
"Brother-in-law, prepare more ingredients at home in the future. If you don't have anything to eat, it would be great if you put some tofu skin or gluten in this grilled fish."
Chen Yuanyuan and Zeng Xiaoqi also agreed:
"That's right, there are also fried soybeans, it's delicious if you add some."
"Lotus root slices are also fine. I highly recommend adding some lotus root slices when grilling fish. The texture and taste are great."
Shen Baobao glanced at several people:
"Aren't you afraid of eating too much and gaining weight? I just saw Shu Yun secretly forwarding a lot of dangers of eating at night in the group."
People who eat can't help but put poison.
People who can't eat it can only repost some health science articles to express their counterattack.
"Aren't you eating too? Aren't you afraid?"
"We will take Dundun to climb the mountain tomorrow morning and enjoy the scenery of early winter."
Chen Yan originally wanted to go hiking together, but she felt she couldn't get up, so she held back.
Lin Xu took a bite of the meat from the belly of the fish. It was delicious and had a spicy taste. After finishing the meal, he took a sip of beer and felt really refreshed.
This is the joy of indulgence!
However, no matter how comfortable I am eating now, I will be embarrassed when I climb the mountain tomorrow morning.
Last weekend, my parents-in-law went hiking early in the morning and they felt good, so tomorrow Lin Xu and Shen Baobao plan to take Dundun with them to experience the joy of climbing to the top of the mountain to welcome the morning sun.
Dundun didn't eat much, so after finishing the two fish, he squatted aside, licking his paws and washing his face.
Lin Xu said to it:
"I'm going hiking tomorrow morning. It might be a bit cold. Please find some clothes you want to wear."
Dundun rolled his eyes and then went upstairs along the stairs.
Zeng Xiaoqi’s eyes widened:
"It's not really looking for clothes, is it?"
"I went to look for clothes and bought a bunch of small sweaters. He likes them all."
After Shen Baobao finished speaking, he added:
"Except for pink. I laughed at it when I tried on a pink sweater that day. I never touched that pink one again and refused to put it in the pile of sweaters for it."
"Hey, you have quite a temper."
While eating and drinking, Ren Jie's phone rang.
"Have you slept?"
"No, I'm eating grilled fish and drinking wine at my relatives' house."
"Stop drinking. Come to the team to report before 11 p.m. When you arrive, hand in all your communication equipment, and then go to the large conference room to stand by."
"Yes!"
After hanging up the phone, she smiled apologetically at Chen Yan:
"I'm sorry Xiaoyan, I can't accompany you again."
Chen Yan pouted:
"That's great... I'll drive you there."
Ren Jie waved his hand:
"No, I'll just take a taxi and you can go on eating."
Just as he was talking, Dundun ran down again at some point, and Ren Jie bent down to hold it in his arms:
"Dundun, my uncle has left. He wanted to introduce some children to you. I don't have time yet. If I can't wait any longer, I will introduce you to all the little black tigers from the police force. They are all very friendly."
Dundun rolled her eyes, patted Ren Jie's wound gently, then jumped off and continued to choose the sweater she wanted to wear.
Ren Jie touched the gunshot wound on his left arm and said with a smile:
"This little guy always behaves inexplicably. Last time he even slapped me on the forehead... You guys eat, I will go back to the police station first."
Chen Yan walked him to the door, and while waiting for the elevator, she took the initiative to hold Ren Jie's neck and kissed him deeply:
"When the mission is over, remember to report to me that you are safe."
After saying that, she stood on tiptoe and leaned into Ren Jie's ear and said:
"My aunt has ordered a set of sexy underwear, the kind with very little fabric. I will wear it for you when you come back."
Ren Jie: "!!!!!!!!!"
He swallowed hard:
"How about I... take a day off?"
Chen Yan was just trying to tease this nominal nephew, but when she heard this, her face suddenly turned red:
"Go, go, mother-in-law said, if you touch me before marriage, I will break your legs."
Ren Jie hugged her and kissed her:
"Wait for me, Chef Chen~"
These words made Chen Yan feel hot.
Your stinky nephew will tease your aunt, come back and see me take care of you!
Ren Jie took the elevator downstairs, and Chen Yan returned to the room, then quickly ran upstairs and hugged Dundun who was choosing clothes:
"Dundun, my aunt apologizes to you and will never scare you again. You must wish my uncle a safe return, please."
Since everyone says that DunDun is effective.
"Meow~~"
Dundun gave a soft cry, then jumped down, holding a light gray sweater with a shirt collar and put it aside.
Obviously, this is what I will wear tomorrow morning.
After Chen Yan went downstairs, Shen Baobao looked at her and asked:
"Yanbao, why don't you leave and stay here? Let's take Dundun to climb the mountain together tomorrow morning."
"Okay, anyway, I can't contact Ren Jie after I handed over his mobile phone. I'm still thinking about it while lying in bed... Since I don't drive anymore, brother-in-law, please change the wine and stop drinking this kind of kid's drink."
"Tch, I don't want to share it with you yet."
Lin Xu filled his sister-in-law's glass with beer and said to Zeng Xiaoqi and Sister Yuanyuan:
"Don't leave either. You've been drinking. It's not safe to take a taxi at night, and I can't drive you there. You guys are also experiencing the troubles of living in a big house."
"Brother, are you in Versailles? You are still worried..."
Chen Yuanyuan thought her cousin was in Versailles, but when she stayed in the guest room upstairs, she realized the disadvantages of the big house. There were several guest rooms, and every door was the same, so she touched Zeng Xiaoqi's room several times.
p>
Director Zeng, who had just taken a shower, lifted up his bathrobe and showed off his beautiful legs:
"Yuanyuan, if you like me, just tell me. Don't do this little trick of accidentally entering someone else's room."
Sister Yuanyuan looked up and down Zeng Xiaoqi's figure, with deep regret on her face:
"Tsk, what a pity..."
Although she didn't say anything, Zeng Xiaoqi looked stimulated:
"I will never pay attention to you people named Chen again!"
Early the next morning, in addition to Chen Yuanyuan going to work, Lin Xu drove Shen Baobao, Zeng Xiaoqi, Chen Yan and Dundun to Xishan to take their children to climb the mountain!
Just out of the Fifth Ring Road.
The system's prompt tone suddenly sounded in Lin Xu's mind:
"The host can redeem a reward every hour when he takes his pet to play outdoors. This reward can be accumulated and exchanged for a higher level reward. It is only for one day, so please take advantage of it carefully!"
What?
Is there such a good thing?
Then we won’t go back today!
