"How about it? Are you surprised or surprised to see me coming back before you and waiting for you at home?" Yan Jiecheng followed Yu Li into the house and said.
"What's so surprising about this? It's not like you didn't come back before me. I told my dad today and asked my mom to cut the clothes and bring them over when we go back." Yu Li said.
"There are no surprises, just surprises. Let's go again this weekend." Yan Jiecheng said.
"Isn't it too much to go back once a week? Isn't that good? I can just wait until my dad brings the fabric to the factory and I can bring it back." Yu Li asked again, frowning.
"It's okay. You don't need to take so many things when you go back, so it won't be a big burden on us. Although you can see your dad every day, you can still go back and see your mom," Yan Jiecheng explained.
"That's okay, let's go back this week." Yu Li said with a smile.
"It's such a happy decision. I'll take you fishing when I get back." Yan Jiecheng said.
"It's almost time. I'll help our mother heat up the goose." Yu Li said and walked out.
Yan Jiecheng made a cup of tea, found a book and started reading.
The old Yan family had another goose dinner in the evening. Yan Jiedi asked her eldest brother if he could eat goose every day from now on. Before Yan Jiecheng could reply, he was ruthlessly suppressed by Yan Bugui.
Yan Jiecheng thought that there were not many geese in total that could be eaten, and he still had to keep the female to lay eggs, which grew slowly, and he wanted to eat them every day.
Ever since I met Yu Li, the material consumption of the small world has increased greatly. In the future, more children will be imported, and feed will be supplemented from the outside to meet the consumption.
In the next few days, Yan Jiecheng didn't find the right time to chat with Shazhu. The steel rolling mill often had brothers from other units come over for inspection and study, and Shazhu cooked meals every day. The widow's family also enjoyed the treatment of the factory leaders and the same meals.
I came to Yu's house on the weekend, and it was another intimate reunion of mother and daughter. "Big brother" was embarrassed again when he saw Yan Jiecheng. He called him over for the first time, and came again.
When we ate fried noodles with soybean paste at Lao Yu’s house this time, Yu’s mother didn’t even provide food and drinks, because she was afraid that Yu’s father would drink. They brought Yu Haitang and Yu Peng’s fabrics back home, and the two of them took the fishing rods and set off again.
Go fishing in Shichahai.
When I came to Shichahai, I found a place with beautiful scenery. I first taught Yu Li how to fish, then I spread a small piece of fermented dough to make a nest and set up two fishing rods.
The two people took out the peanuts, melon seeds and kettles they had brought and sat on the ground chatting.
"Don't just think about going home and doing housework. It would be nice to come outside and relax for a while." Yan Jiecheng said to Li.
"It's nice to play outside, but when you get home, do you wash the clothes? You do it?" Yu Li said.
"If you want me to wash it, I can choose to wear it for a few more days. If you want me to make the clothes, that's fine, as long as you believe I can do it well."
"Didn't you say you could wash your own clothes when you were in school? Why don't you wash your own clothes now? If you don't know how to make clothes, I can teach you." Yu Li said with a smile.
"I'm already married, and you still ask me to wash my own clothes. Don't I want to lose face? You know that Silly Zhu is a bachelor. Occasionally, his clothes are washed by a widow, so you ask me to wash them by myself? I don't even have a sewing machine.
You don't even know how to use it, but you still want to teach me how to make clothes, are you serious?" Yan Jiecheng said.
"How old is Silhu? Why is he still a bachelor? Where is his wife? I will teach you seriously, can you learn seriously?"
"Si Zhu, don't tell me how old he is. In fact, he is only 27 or 28, and he is still a young man. Where did he get a wife from? And don't look at Sil Zhu, who looks very old. When this kind of person gets older,
You still look like this. When you are in your fifties or sixties, you will look younger than your peers. Why do you just know how to use a sewing machine? Your family doesn’t have a sewing machine."
"Jie Cheng, look quickly. It's moving. Is the fish hooked?" Yu Li said anxiously.
Yan Jiecheng saw that the fish had really taken the bait and pulled up a crucian carp weighing one pound.
"Yu Li, you caught a crucian carp with your fishing rod. Do you want to take it home and keep it until you have a baby?" Yan Jiecheng said with a smirk.
"Keep it for you to use for your own milk!" Yu Li came over angrily and wanted to beat Yan Jiecheng.
The two of them quarreled for a while, and when Li got tired, Yan Jiecheng said, "Okay, let's stop making trouble. You haven't told me how to use a sewing machine."
"Didn't we buy a sewing machine at that time? I went home and learned it from my neighbor," Yu Li replied.
"Then if you learn quickly enough, it only takes a few days. My clothes won't be the first clothes you make with a sewing machine!" Yan Jiecheng said in surprise.
"It's the first one, what's wrong?" Yu Li said.
"You didn't do it for me first because you were worried that the first one wouldn't look good." Yan Jiecheng said teasingly.
"Yan Jiecheng, do you have any conscience? I will make you clothes first. If you are not happy, I will use old clothes and sew and mend them a lot before making them." Yu Li pinched Yan Jiecheng's soft flesh and said.
"Okay, I'm in so much pain, can't you tell I'm joking?" Yan Jiecheng said.
"It sounds like it's a joke. You shouldn't stop me if you're joking." Yu Li said.
The two of them worked hard all afternoon and harvested two small carp weighing more than a kilogram and the first crucian carp. The other fish were too small, so Yan Jiecheng released them. You can make fried small fish and eat them, but there is no need.
There is no shortage of fish.
The two people put away their fishing rods, carried three fish, and packed away the garbage they had made all afternoon.
"Let's go home and make you some sweet and sour fish." Yan Jiecheng said to Yu Li.
It was a little early for the two of them to get home, and Yan Bugui hadn't come back yet. So we didn't wait for him to come back, and just cooked these three fishes today.
If the crucian carp is too small, just stew the crucian carp soup directly. Make the two carps into sweet and sour fish.
After cleaning the fish, remove the fishy tendons and make several cross cuts on the fish with a knife.
Hold the fish tail with your hands, pour oil on the fish, and turn the fish meat where it has been cut with the knife outwards.
Put the fish into the oil pan and fry it. Under the conditions of Lao Yan's family, frying and pan-frying are almost the same. It's not that Yan is stingy. It feels like a crime to use too much. Fry the small crucian carp and make the crucian carp soup directly. Fry the two carps raw.
come out.
Pour out the excess oil, leave a little oil, add onion, ginger, water, salt, vinegar, sugar, bring to a boil and cover with cornstarch.
Just pour the cooked soup over the fish.
Sweet and sour fish, I can’t say that the third aunt doesn’t know how to make it, it can only be said that this wasteful method is not on the Lao Yan family’s menu.
After the fish was ready, Yan Bugui also came back. The two small fish caught by Yan Bugui will be cooked into soup in the next few days.
Not surprisingly, the sweet and sour fish has won unanimous praise from people other than Yan Bugui. After all, people nowadays like to eat sweets, and it is said that sweetness can bring people a sense of happiness.
Yan Bugui thinks the taste is okay, but naturally he doesn't like this kind of wasteful, oily and sugary dish.
