Chapter 8 Children twittering
"Sister, can you fry loaches now?"
Cheng An was pulled from her clothes by Cheng Ping, diverting her attention, and not finding any strangeness between her second mother-in-law and her aunt.
But he kept talking to Li Lanlan, and seemed to have no concern for Mu Tianfen, who was here at all, raised his eyebrows calmly.
Cheng An looked at Cheng Ping speechlessly, "I just had a meal and wanted to eat loach again. Are you not full?"
"I'm full." Cheng Ping nodded and said naturally: "But the loach doesn't take up the stomach."
Seeing that Cheng An was still looking at him silently, Cheng Ping glared: "Sister won't regret it, right? You promised me in the morning. It's a puppy!"
After saying that, he grabbed Cheng An's wrist and shook it.
"I didn't say I won't help you." Cheng An pulled the corner of his mouth and pulled out his hand, "But you have to wash the loach yourself."
Although she is not afraid of loaches, this slippery little thing doesn't feel very wonderful when you touch it.
When she was a child, she had no taboos. After entering junior high school, she basically never touched her.
Now I want her to touch the loach... and spare her! Thinking about it, I have goose bumps all over my body.
"I wash myself."
After getting Cheng An's guarantee, Cheng Ping responded very simply, turned his head and ran to the kitchen to sniffle loaches like a gust of wind.
"Brother Cheng Ping, I'll help you!" Seeing this, Cheng Xin threw the little Cheng Hao to her sister Cheng Li and followed her in with great pleasure.
Cheng An smiled. The child was indeed powerless to resist this fried food.
Cheng Hao likes to play with Cheng Xin the most. Seeing this, he broke away from Cheng Li's hand and ran to the kitchen with his short legs. As a result, he was stopped by the high threshold of the kitchen.
The threshold was higher than his waist. He leaned his hands on it, raised one of his legs, and tried to turn it in. But after many tests, he would burst into tears when his mouth sagged.
Cheng An took him up, put it in the threshold, and stuffed a big white rabbit milk candy into his hand, almost blocking the flood that was about to open in his eyes.
When Cheng Hao saw her entering the door, he couldn't even look at her. Two bean-sized tears hung in the corner of his eyes, which could not be shed. He held a candy in his palm, and his short legs were bumpy and went to Cheng Ping and Cheng Xin.
Cheng An, who originally wanted to comfort him, said: "..."
Cheng Li, who watched the whole process, sniffed, then held back and laughed, "Sister, I'll help you burn the fire."
After saying that, he went to the pigpen to drag a few dry firewood and set the fire on.
Cheng An endured it, but finally couldn't help rolling his eyes. However, the corners of his mouth were involuntarily raised. His young cousin was indeed much cuter and much more pleasing than when he grew up.
Well, she is a lot of adults and doesn't care about them anymore.
...
Fried loaches is very simple, and there is no need to kill them. You just need to put them in water for two days to let them spit out the things in their stomachs. Then marinate them with salt, wash them, wrap them with egg whites, and fry them in the oil pan. Finally, sprinkle them with chili flour and pepper powder and eat them.
Cheng Ping and Cheng Xin sprinkled the loach with salt and marinated it, washed it clean and put it in a basin.
Cheng An took the chopsticks and picked up the loach and rolled it into the prepared egg white and starch, and then threw it into the oil pan.
So sizzled, the loaches in the oil pan began to change color and tighten in a short while. A special fragrance spread in the kitchen.
Cheng Li is fine, she is older and very steady.
Cheng Ping and Cheng Xin looked into the pot with a gaze, unable to bear to blink. Cheng Hao was short and could not see it. He was so anxious that he hugged Cheng Ping's legs and climbed up. Unfortunately, he climbed up and fell down again after a piece of it.
"Brother, brother, hug!"
"Sister, is that okay? It smells so good!"
"Sister Cheng An, the color has changed. It should be better and you can pick it up."
...
Three women play together, but three children are like a group of sparrows, chirping, and the kitchen is so lively.
He quickly picked up the fried loach, half of which was original and half with seasonings, and asked Cheng Ping to take it out to eat with the adults. Cheng An felt that his ears finally calmed down.
Seeing that Cheng Li was still sitting in front of the stove, Cheng An looked soothing and said, "You go and eat too, don't be snatched away by them later. I'll put out the fire."
"No need, sister. I've covered the fire." Cheng Li smiled and shook her head, "And, I don't like eating loaches either."
Cheng An was surprised and said casually: "Don't you like it? But I heard from Cheng Ping that you and Cheng Xin caught a lot yesterday."
Seeing that there was no one outside the kitchen, Cheng Li hesitated and whispered to Cheng An: "I want to catch it and sell it."
"Sell?" Cheng An was stunned, then looked at his cousin thoughtfully, "How come you have this idea?"
She had never heard of Cheng Li selling loaches at this time before. Now, when she suddenly heard her say this, Cheng An always felt a little inconsistent.
Could it be that she didn’t know enough about Cheng Li before?
But it makes no sense. In this village, no matter big or small, as long as it is done, there will always be someone who knows it.
In my impression, Cheng Li has always been studying and going to school in a regular manner. After graduating from junior high school, Qin Lan did not let her continue to go to high school, but instead sent her to a technical school directly.
Since leaving the technical school, I have been working in a refrigerator factory. There is nothing special about it.
It is not the same as the girl in front of her who is hiding her mind and thinking about catching loaches to sell.
What exactly went wrong?
Cheng An was a little surprised and was thinking about it when he saw Cheng Li biting her lip and whispering: "Sister, can you help me?"
