Chapter 680: The Best Sister of the Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Role (10)
Xu Yishan grinned: "People outside can cook these, but of course they don't count. I'm talking about the dish I'm going to teach you next..."
When Xu Chuan heard that there was a real ancestral specialty dish, he excitedly ran to clean the pot, wipe it dry and put it back in the stove, waiting for his father to show off.
Then he saw his father coming out with a bag of spices.
"Here, I'll teach you how to make drunken crabs."
Xu Chuan was dumbfounded: "Dad, don't you use a pot to cook?"
"What are you doing with the pot! There are so many dishes and there's not enough for you? You really can't do anything, and you eat everything without any leftovers... I saw your sister came back from buying two bottles of Huadiao, and happened to catch a few small lake crabs. First,
Leave it overnight, wait until all the vomiting is gone, and then steam it tomorrow. It just so happens that the spices need to be soaked for a day and night, otherwise they won't be able to produce enough fragrance... You kid is in for a treat. The drunken crabs soaked in Huadiao have such a delicious taste.
Let me tell you. Over the years, your father and I have been lucky enough to eat Huadiao Drunken Crab once or twice, mainly because your mother was reluctant to buy Huadiao...ordinary old wine cannot bring out the taste..."
Xu Chuan: "..."
After working on it for a long time, his father didn't want to teach him how to make a stir-fry dish. It was clearly the drunken crab dish that the old Xu family used to buy from Xiaohu Lake when they couldn't sell it for a price, so they made wine and cooked it themselves.
Today his father went to the lake and cast two nets. The mandarin fish his sister wanted to eat only caught two small ones. After steaming, they only had a small plate. He wanted to try a chopstick but his father hit him on the head with the handle of a spatula.
.
On the other hand, I picked up a lot of small lake crabs. The really small ones were put back to be crab fry. The ones with a little bit of meat were raised overnight and let them spit them out. Tomorrow they will be made into drunken lake crabs. From now on, they will be eaten with rice and porridge.
.
So dad, you were really just lazy and didn’t want to clean up the pot, right?
Xu Chuan gave his father a meaningful look that understood everything.
Seeing that he was not moving, Xu Yishan made a move to kick him: "What are you doing? Hurry up and bring a basin with some cold water. Do you still want to learn? Really! Why did I give birth to such a lazy son like you..."
"..."
Xu Yin was quite interested in what Xu's father said about Xu's secret cooked drunken crab.
She had cooked drunken crab before, but it was pickled raw. She seemed to have eaten cooked drunken lake crab in some small world, but she had never cooked it before.
"Dad, let me help you." Xu Yin brought a basin of cold drinks over.
"Look, your sister is still reliable at the critical moment." Xu Yishan gave his son a roll of his eyes and turned to teach Xu Yin.
Xu Chuan: "..."
who I am?
Where am I?
I probably really picked it up.
That night, in addition to a table of delicious home-cooked dishes in the Xu family, the air was also filled with the aroma of more than ten kinds of spices from drunken lake crabs.
Falling asleep with this fragrance on her pillow, Xu Yin felt indescribably at ease.
The next day, Xu Yin followed Father Xu to inspect the Yueya Lake fish pond for which she would fight (to survive) in the future.
Xu Chuan's summer vacation was coming to an end. He had a few papers left and a few essays he hadn't written yet. He wanted to go with him, but his father gave him a look and obediently rolled him back into the house, chewing on his pen and composing an essay, and went to write papers and pay off his debts.
The village cadre borrowed a smart area measurement tool from the street. It is said that this tool was developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is accurate and does not require any calculations. It can automatically calculate the scope of the 50-acre fish pond by inputting a few data.
A group of four people took the Xu family's small fishing boat and circled around, drawing out the waters owned by the Xu family's fish pond.
Back on the shore, the village cadres made a mark and went back. Xu Yishan roughly estimated the length and height of the netting for the fish pond, and planned to rush to the county to order it. He would pull up the net early so that he could start breeding as soon as possible.
Xu Yin had nothing to do next, so she took a walk along the lakeshore and calculated the economic benefits of planting orange trees.
Orange saplings are relatively cheap among many fruit tree saplings, but if you plant too many, they will easily fail to sell at a high price. Even if you cultivate high-quality products, wouldn't they be no different from the general public if these high-quality products become widespread?
Is she thinking about doing interbreeding?
Since you plan to make a fruit-based fish pond, the types of fruits cannot be too single.
Which fruits are suitable for planting near a lake with sufficient water?
Xu Yin dug out the fruit saplings she had stocked before, and based on the key points of local planting mentioned in the fruit tree cultivation skills book, in addition to orange trees, she also selected several local fruits that are suitable for harmonious symbiosis with fish ponds: mulberries, cherries, and sugar cane.
.
But sugarcane is not suitable as a lakeside landscape tree, so cross it out.
Finally decided to plant oranges, mulberries and cherries.
For these three types of fruits, the fruit trees are tall, the flowering period is beautiful, and the fruit ripening periods are also separated.
Mulberries mature in April and May, cherries mature in May and June, and oranges mature in the golden autumn of October.
After all, it still lacks fruits that can be eaten in summer.
Xu Yin rubbed her chin, and her eyes immediately lit up: That's right! You can plant some lotus flowers on the bank of the fish pond, won't there be lotus pods to eat in July and August?
Fish playing among the lotus leaves, lotus leaves and fields, what a beautiful scene!
When Xu Yin returned home, she began to design a planting plan for the fruit-based fish pond.
Xu Chuan came out to pour water and saw her sister bent over the dining table, engrossed in writing something. She looked up and looked outside the house: "Sister, the sun didn't come out from the west today."
Xu Yin was counting the number of three kinds of fruit saplings. When she heard this, she asked without raising her head: "What?"
"You rarely held a pen when you were studying, but you actually picked up a pen after graduation. It's so strange, so strange!"
"..."
I can’t have this younger brother!
After all, this brother is exactly the reason why she came to this small world to "experience calamity".
How dare Xu Yin really not want it?
And we have to always care about his physical and mental health: "I'm going back to school in two days. How are you completing your homework?"
"It's okay. I'll definitely finish it before school starts anyway." He has been rushing through two compositions and three test papers every day for the past two days. Is it possible that it's too late?
Xu Yin said: "It's done in advance. I'll take you to buy two new clothes. I'll also buy you a pair of basketball shoes. You can choose which style you like."
Xu Chuan looked at her in surprise several times and asked tentatively: "Sister, you didn't secretly get the check you gave to dad, did you?"
Xu Yin laughed and cursed: "Am I that kind of person?"
Xu Chuan muttered softly: "That's impossible to say."
His sister had never bought anything for him before, and she only cared about her face.
By the way, why does his sister seem to be a different person recently? She hasn't put on makeup for the past two days.
Although he thought his sister's face was beautiful when she was naked, his sister didn't think so. She always looked left and right in the mirror, feeling that the bridge of her nose was not straight enough and the corners of her mouth were not straight enough, and she would not go out without makeup.
Not only did you go out without makeup today, but you even measured the fish soup area with the village cadres?
Strange!
How strange!
Xu Chuan wondered if she had been stimulated by something, or if she was unhappy at work. Otherwise, how could she resign so quickly?
As soon as her father contracted the fish pond, she quit her job.
The more Xu Chuan thought about it, the more likely he felt that the latter was more likely.
"Sister, did someone in the mall say something to you?"
"Huh? What did you say?"
"No, it's nothing."
Forget it, forget it, his sister is fine as she is now, don't go back to the past!
