The two of them chatted with Cheng's father for a while until Liu Ying opened the door and walked in.

"Old man, Ling Ling and the young couple brought a lot of things back. We have to make this meal more generous tonight."

"Okay!" Cheng's father nodded with a smile: "When the children come back, they will naturally have to make more and give them some good supplements. You can braise the pork belly to make them eat full."

"Okay!" A chrysanthemum appeared on Liu Ying's face.

She poured two cups of hot water, handed it to Xue Ling, and then handed it to her son.

Cheng Tianyuan stood up and said, "I'll go to the fields to take a look and clear the cellar in the afternoon."

The vegetables and crops that can be harvested in the fields must be harvested in advance and put into the cellar to eat during the winter.

Xue Ling quickly stood up and smiled and said, "I'll go and help too!"

Cheng Tianyuan shook his head and whispered: "Then is too dirty, just stay in the kitchen to help mom."

Seeing that he refused to agree, Xue Ling told him to be careful, so he quickly accompanied Liu Ying to the kitchen.

Liu Ying was busy cutting pork belly and smiled and said, "Lingling, just wash the garlic."

Xue Ling remembered the scene of Cheng Tianyuan making braised pork yesterday and couldn't help asking: "Mom, are you going to make braised pork? What ingredients do you need to use? Teach me!"

"You want to learn?" Liu Ying explained: "This thing is a bit particular and I can't learn it for a while. If you want to learn it, I will teach you again and again!"

Xue Ling asked curiously: "Is it difficult again and again?"

"It's not difficult!" Liu Ying explained with a smile: "It's just that the recipe of the braised ingredients must be adjusted according to the meat and the amount of meat. The braised ingredients are not complicated, and they are usually garlic and ginger, and some soy sauce. Other things are easy to deal with, but the only thing that is not easy to grasp is soy sauce. This soy sauce needs to be sauced for 180 days, and it starts to dry in late spring and until early autumn."

Xue Ling said "Oh!" and asked, "Brother Yuan brought the soy sauce to the county town, you are the ones you made with, mom, right?"

"Yes." Liu Ying smiled and explained: "I use some sauce every few years, and occasionally I send it to my neighbors and fellow villagers. Last year, I asked Ayuan to take some to eat. He likes the soy sauce I make very much. These are what my mother taught me, and it has been a long time since."

Xue Ling was not very familiar with Nan Jiang, so he took it over and smelled it.

"Well... I smelled a little choking at first, but it smelled carefully and it smelled very strong."

"Yes, yes!" Liu Ying said: "That thing is particularly effective in removing the fishy smell. There are few ginger here. This is what I found at my parents' home before. They plant it year by year, keep the ginger seeds, and continue to plant the next year."

Xue Ling smiled bitterly and said, "So eating braised pork is not easy, because it is too difficult to prepare braised ingredients, especially the soy sauce has to be made in advance."

Liu Ying put the pork belly into a small pot and explained: "Yes! But we have always had soy sauce, and there are two small jars in the corner, which can be used for a long time!"

Xue Ling thought for a while and said, "Mom, can you have more soy sauce tomorrow? I smell it very fragrant!"

If you want to do a braised meat business, you have to prepare the braised meat in advance. The soy sauce on the market is not so fragrant at all, and it is still made from your own recipe to achieve good results.

"No problem!" Liu Ying said: "There are still a lot of soybeans at home. I will have more than a dozen jars of sauce next year for you to eat!"

Xue Ling was extremely greedy and smiled and said, "Can you have more?"

Liu Ying couldn't help but smile and asked, "What's wrong? Could it be that our Ling Ling is planning to drink soy sauce? This thing is not wine, but it's salty!"

Xue Ling pretended to be mysterious and whispered: "Mom, don't ask first, I will let you know in the future. You will have dozens of jars of sauce next year. Anyway, our yard is so big that there is a place to put it on."

"Finish!" Liu Ying agreed happily and said, "What are you looking for? Don't you just get more soy sauce? There are soybeans at home! Mom will start working tomorrow in spring!"

Xue Ling hurriedly approached and couldn't wait to say, "Mom, teach me quickly!"

Seeing that Liu Ying was willing to study, she naturally agreed very readily.

"The first thing to pay attention to in this braised thing is to pick the meat first! If it is not good for being too fat, it is not good for being too thin. If it is like this pork belly, it is most suitable for braised fat and thin.

Duck and chicken can also be braised, but you need to add more ginger to remove the fishy smell. The garlic smell should not be too much, otherwise it will taste chewy. Pork belly like this will cook for a while, so you have to apply the sauce in advance..."

Xue Ling studied hard while watching.

Liu Ying looked at the sky and smiled and said, "It's almost noon, let's prepare supper first!"

I haven’t used honeycomb coal yet in the countryside, so I usually go to the mountains to get some dry firewood and some hay in the fields.

Xue Ling helped to cook the fire and started, while Liu Ying was responsible for cooking and cooking.

After more than ten minutes, lunch was ready.

Xue Ling washed his hands and put on the dishes and couldn't help looking out: "Why haven't Brother Yuan come back yet?"

Liu Ying didn't look up and smiled: "It's probably because there are more white radishes in the field, so he plans to pull them all back. This child is too idle. Every time he goes home, he is busy from morning to night, and he is eager to finish all the things at home."

Xue Ling remembered that there was something in the area in front of the house, so he said, "Mom, I'll call him to come for dinner."

Liu Ying stood up and smiled and said, "Anyway, that girl Afang hasn't come back yet, so she can't have a meal for the time being. You go to the house to rest, I'll help Ayuan! By the way, I go to your house to clean every other day. I haven't touched the things, just clean it."

"Thank you mom!" Xue Ling hugged her arm intimately and said, "I'm not tired, let's go to the field to help!"

Liu Ying took two large dustpans and found a shoulder pole again.

"Can you help pick some back later."

Walk out of the kitchen, walk across the large yard, and cross the road. There is a large area of ​​flat farmland in front of you.

Liu Ying thought that his wife was not sure about the land situation at home, so she was busy with popular science while walking.

"This area belongs to our family and Uncle Biao's family, half of each family. We all grow crops, and their family is busy raising fish ponds, so these ten acres of land are deserted."

Xue Ling had no good feelings for Cheng Biao's family, so he responded vaguely, squinted his eyes and looked around.

I saw a familiar tall and strong man half-bearing his waist, busy with his big hands, holding a small shovel in one hand and pulling a carrot in the other.

The green fields were a little messy, and most of the cabbage was harvested, and some were left on the ridges.

The white radish had just started to be harvested, but Cheng Tianyuan was working quickly and neatly, and had already collected two large baskets.

He heard the conversation and raised his head, his cold and handsome face covered with sweat.

"Why are you all here?"

Xue Ling smiled and replied: "Come and help you!"

Liu Yingze smiled and explained: "The food is ready, so I'll clean it up first and go home for dinner."

Cheng Tianyuan stood up straight, took the dustpan with his hands, and quickly put the radish on the ridge of the field into it.

Xue Ling had never been to the field as a child, and followed Liu Laolao in the Grand View Garden. She was very curious and fresh. She looked here and moved there, her pretty face was full of excitement.

Cheng Tianyuan glanced at her quietly and smiled softly.

"The sun is a little sunny at noon, which will burn you. You have to wear a straw hat. Go back first, and I will bring you here after you have enough."
