Ding Qiunan blushed with embarrassment from the two little ones and quickly let go of Li Donglai.

Li Donglai was so angry that he walked over and raised the two little ones high. As soon as he lifted them up, he felt something was wrong.

"Qiu Nan, Wei Dong seems to be a lot heavier."

"Hey, Wei Guo is also a lot heavier."

Li Donglai put the two children down and looked them up and down. The arms and legs of the two children seemed to be much thicker than before he left the capital.

Especially Weiguo, you can vaguely see the traces of muscles on his arms.

Li Donglai was overjoyed.

The Li family's life in the Siheyuan and even in the capital city was considered first-rate. There was never a shortage of food at home, and white-flour steamed buns could also be eaten happily.

but.

The food of the two children is not delicious, and sometimes it is not even as good as that of Shazhu's daughter He Hua.

If you eat less, your body will naturally not be strong.

As a doctor, Li Donglai certainly knows that food intake is determined innately.

Moreover, just because a child is thinner does not mean that he or she is unhealthy.

But as a father, who doesn’t want his children to grow into strong little tigers?

To this end, he tried many methods, including hawthorn pills, anthelmintics, etc., and even used the barefoot doctor system, but found nothing.

How come we have only been away from the capital for more than half a month, and the two children have gained five or six pounds!

Ding Qiunan saw Li Donglai's doubts, pursed his lips and explained with a smile: "The two of them are exercising with Brigade Liu every day. They said that in the future they will join the army like my little sister to protect their family and country."

"I originally thought they were joking, but who would have thought that after a few days of exercise, their appetite increased. The more they ate, their bodies naturally became stronger."

Good guy, training with Team Liu... Li Donglai and Team Liu are old friends. It is very clear that this man is a selfless guy. Even if Wei Dong and Wei Guo are children, he will not be arrogant.

Being able to persevere shows that these two children are very perseverant.

Li Donglai rubbed their heads to show encouragement: "If you want to join the army in the future, that's a good thing, but you can't miss cultural classes. When you grow up, the war situation will inevitably change. If you don't have culture, you won't be able to join the army.

.”

"I know, Dad!" The two children were very excited when they heard that Li Donglai didn't mind them joining the army.

At this time, Ding Qiunan also brought in everything on the bicycle.

Looking at the cross-bridge rice noodles, Ding Qiunan was also confused: "Brother Donglai, why is this sweet potato starch white?"

Li Donglai smiled, sat down, and explained while drinking tea: "This is bridge rice noodles. It is said that in the previous dynasty, a scholar went to a small island to study every day, and his wife had to walk across a long bridge.

, brought him meals, but every time the meals were delivered, they would get cold. In order to let her husband eat warm meals, the scholar lady would cover the chicken soup with thick chicken fat.

That layer of chicken fat acts like a pot lid, keeping the soup warm.

After this kind of food spread, people called it Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles.

Do you think the relationship between them is great?"

After listening to this, Ding Qiunan frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Why doesn't the scholar go home for dinner? Why does his wife have to bring the meal?"

Good guy, she is indeed a girl majoring in science, her ideas are very strange.

"The scholar was busy studying at that time," Li Donglai explained.

"Do you study at noon? Don't you, private school teacher, also eat at noon?" Ding Qiunan asked.

"......"plum

Dong Lai was silent for a moment, then sighed and said: "That's because the encyclopedia was compiled by Xijiba... I won't talk about that anymore. I learned the craft from the chef over there, and I will make bridge rice noodles with you tonight."

"

really.

The power of food is extremely powerful.

After hearing that there was something delicious, Ding Qiunan also gave up trying to find out.

Cross Bridge Rice Noodles taste great, but the production process is complicated.

First, take out the internal organs of the old hen, wash them, and remove the chicken fat.

Chop the chicken into small pieces, stir-fry it in a black iron pot, then add water and slowly simmer it over coal fire to make a thick chicken soup.

At the same time, the rice noodles should be soaked in hot water until soft before being put into boiling water.

Everything is ready, just prepare the ingredients.

The quality of the ingredients determines the taste of Cross Bridge Rice Noodles.

Fat Chef's family recipe used by Li Donglai.

Chop the pea tips, leeks, coriander, green onions, ginger and tofu skin, then sprinkle with salt and marinate.

Two hours later, the chicken soup is out of the pot and the rice noodles are crumbly. Put them into a bowl and sprinkle with the ingredients.

The taste is simply amazing!

After just two sniffs, I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.

Wei Dong and Wei Guo set up the table in front of the table early, waiting for Li Dong to come and give them rice noodles.

Li Donglai picked up the chopsticks and poured the rice noodles with ingredients into their bowls.

Then he found a big bowl and shared a bowl of rice noodles with Ding Qiunan.

The atmosphere in the house was full of happiness.

Most of the houses in this era were not well sealed, and the strange fragrance slipped out through the cracks in the door and instantly filled the entire courtyard.

Silly Zhu’s house in the middle courtyard.

Silly Zhu was eating pig intestines. When he smelled the smell, he quickly bit off the intestines and stood at the door to look into the backyard.

Yu Juhua was having dinner with He Hua. Seeing him like this, she asked curiously: "Silly Zhu, what's wrong?"

"This scent... is absolutely amazing! Who in our compound has such good craftsmanship?" Silly Zhu said with wide eyes.

As a cook, the most basic skill is to be able to taste or smell the flavor of a dish.

The flavor of Cross Bridge Rice Noodles is fragrant but not greasy, and has a vaguely fresh taste. It is obviously a delicacy.

Yu Juhua put down her chopsticks, thought for a moment and said, "I was collecting water from the tap just now and met Qiunan's sister-in-law. According to her, Brother Donglai is back, and Brother Donglai's craftsmanship is now as good as yours."

In this era, materials were scarce and people's living standards were generally not high.

Anyone who eats a lot of meat or drinks a lot will be invited by the street office within a few days.

The street officer had to carefully question him about where he got the money to buy meat and the coupons for buying meat.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In the courtyard, the only one who can eat meat openly and make chicken soup is Li Donglai.

Li Donglai is the director of the laboratory and enjoys special subsidies, with a monthly salary of more than 200 yuan, while Ding Qiunan is now the director of the hospital and can also receive more than 100 yuan a month.

The Li family can get more than 300 yuan a month as salary alone, so they can afford it even if they eat meat every day.

"No, this dish is no longer about the quality of the cooking, but the dish itself is top-notch. If not, I have to go to Li's to have a look."

When a chef is faced with a delicious dish, if he doesn't explore the root cause, he will feel as if a kitten is scratching him.

Silly Zhu put on his clothes and strode out of the house.

Jia family.

Today's dinner at Jia's house is stick noodle porridge without side dishes.

It's not that the Jia family can't afford good food.

These days, Banggan and Huang Yanling are making money in the pigeon market with Yan Jiecheng.

In the past, Jia Zhang could only take one painkiller tablet in the morning and evening due to limited conditions, but now she can take six tablets a day.

Not only do the Jia family eat meat every day, but they eat meat every now and then, which is always fine.

The crux of the matter is.

There is another person in the Jia family's house, and that is Zhao Youcai from Zhaojiazhuang.

Zhao Youcai was defrauded of more than 100 yuan of meat by Bang Gang because of the quota for temporary workers. Naturally, he was not willing to accept it, so he came to the capital alone and waited for Bang Gang outside the courtyard.

Bangge was afraid that the truth would be exposed and Zhao Youcai would ask for the more than 100 yuan worth of pork, so he insisted that he was Factory Director Yang's nephew.

Zhao Youcai was dubious, because he was afraid that the villagers would collect debts after returning to Zhaojiazhuang, and at the same time, he also wanted to supervise Banggeng and quickly get the quota of temporary workers, so he stayed at Jia's house.

The Jia family originally had two rooms, but after Banggen got married, they had no place to live, so they were divided into three rooms.

Bang Gang and Huang Yanling slept in one room, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu slept in one room, and the two girls, Xiao Dang and Xiao Huaihua, slept in one room.

There was no place for Zhao Youcai to live.

Zhao Youcai was a farmer. When he was busy farming, he even slept on graves, so naturally he would not be so particular.

So he found a mat and made a floor in the main room of Jia's family.
