There is a table in each of the east and west rooms of Zhao Jun's house. At this time, the table is already filled with delicious dishes.
The main dish in the middle is braised bear paws.
After the bear paw has been blanched five times and simmered for an hour and a half, the outer skin has bloomed, revealing the tendons and a little palm meat inside.
If you add the authentic soybean soy sauce these days, the inside and outside of the bear's paws will turn red.
Because bear paws are rich in colloids, the soup does not need to be thickened when braised and then becomes thicker due to the colloids.
The soup is sticky and hangs on the bear's paw. If you use chopsticks to pick up a piece of rotten bear's paw skin, the skin will have a layer of thick juice. Just take a slight sip to your mouth and the bear's paw skin will be sucked in.
In my mouth, the thick soup stuck to my lips.
The back paw that Zhao Jun left for himself was cut into two parts before being braised, and now it was left rotten on two large plates.
The method of braised bear meat is similar to that of braised bear paws. However, bear paws are mostly tendon and skin, while braised bear meat is the meat from the back thigh of a bear.
These thigh meats are already soft and rotten, and they are piled up on the big plate, exuding a strong aroma.
The other part of bear meat was stewed with large carrots. This dish is a soup. After stewing for half an hour, the soup turned white, with chopped green onion and coriander sprinkled on it. It was mainly a fresh dish.
It is said that you can’t have your cake and eat it too, except Zhao Jun’s family.
First, braise fish, carp, and crucian carp with soy sauce. Fry one side first. After turning it over, pour a spoonful of soybean paste on the fish body, then add water and stew over low heat.
Zhang Yuanmin caught this fish in the morning and asked Wang Meilan to stew it when he came back. He wanted to wait for Zhao Jun and Jie Chen to come back and eat it.
But when the four little girls finished eating and went to school, Zhao Jun and the others didn't come back. If they didn't come back to eat, the fish didn't move and was left until night.
Although it is not a freshly made dish, the stewed fish becomes even more delicious after being reheated.
And when Zhao Jun and the others came back, Wang Meilan and Yang Yufeng were crowding around the fish in the yard.
This fish is a cold-water fish, and it has very high requirements for water quality. This makes the fish's meat delicious, and there is a big thorn from the beginning to the end. Xu Chunyan caught it and fried it in the oil pan. The fried small fish and the outer coating
The noodles are all golden and crispy.
Next to the fried fish are fried shrimps. The river shrimps are stir-fried in oil, and the thin shrimp shells and heads are crispy.
This dish is fresh and delicious, and the small shrimps have a hint of sweetness when you chew them carefully.
Then there are shredded potatoes, which are used to prepare burritos.
According to the old lady's advice, take a big pancake, tear off some braised bear leg meat, and place it along the middle of the pancake from one end to the other.
Then, add a layer of shredded potatoes, and finally add scallions and coriander. Roll the pancake as thick as a child's arm, open your mouth and take a big bite. The pancake is crispy, the meat is tender, the shredded potatoes are soft, and the scallions are sweet and spicy.
, the fragrance of coriander is amazing!
There are already seven dishes, and with the addition of fried egg sauce, the dishes for today’s dinner will be complete.
In terms of the number of dishes, there were not as many as the pig-killing dishes that day, but today these dishes were almost all large dishes.
The food is good and the staple food is awesome!
The dough cake, which is larger than the size of a palm, is golden and crispy on both sides, but white and soft on the inside.
In addition to dough cakes, there are also large oil cakes.
At this time, Wang Meilan was in front of the stove, holding a large cake in her hand and putting it into the pot. She only heard the squeaking sound, and the fragrance of the dough and oil spread in the room.
In the east room, the panel is laid across the Kang table. Zhao Ling is rolling out cakes with a rolling pin in her hand, while Zhao Jun and others are chatting nearby.
Suddenly, the smiling Li Ruhai suddenly remembered something, so he stood up and walked out. Zhao Jun glanced at his back, but ignored him.
Li Ruhai came out of the inner room and went to the outer room and walked towards the door. Wang Meilan, who was pancakes, saw this and asked hurriedly: "Ruhai, it's time to eat, what are you doing?"
Li Ruhai raised his hand and pointed outward, saying, "I'll go to the latrine."
"Go." Wang Meilan warned: "Come back when you're done. Your dad and the others will be home soon. When they come in, we'll start dinner."
Li Ruhai agreed obediently, opened the door and left Zhao Jun's house, quickly walked out of the yard and trotted to the small shop.
But halfway through, Li Ruhai suddenly stopped and ran around to the small store. Although he ran a little longer, he thought he could avoid Zhao Youcai and the others who were returning home.
Li Ruhai came to the small shop, opened the door and strode in. As soon as he came in, he saw Wang Fu taking off his coat.
Coincidentally, Wang Fu has just returned.
Li Ruhai glanced around the room and saw a pile of goods piled under the east wall. On the two sacks in the front, there was a marmot hat and a pair of black leather shoes.
"Ruhai!" Yang Xue came out of the back room with a small stew pot. When she saw Li Ruhai, she said with a smile: "You came at the right time. Your uncle Wang has just come back."
"Uncle Wang, Aunt Wang." Li Ruhai was very polite. Although his mind had already drifted to the marmot hat and leather shoes, he still said hello to Wang Fu and Yang Xue.
Wang Fu put the thin cotton-padded jacket on the counter, raised his hand and pointed to the south, and said with a smile: "I bought it for you!"
After saying that, Wang Fu went over and picked up the marmot hat with one hand and the heels of the two leather shoes with the other hand. He brought them both to Li Ruhai and placed them on the counter.
With a smile on his face, Li Ruhai took the marmot hat and put it on his head. Then he took two steps to the left, and a young man wearing a marmot hat appeared in the mirror.
Li Ruhai was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear. At this time, Yang Xue put the stew pot on the counter, turned to look at Li Ruhai, and said with a smile to Wang Fu: "Don't tell me, Ruhai looks good wearing it." p>
These days, a marmot hat is considered a luxury for mountain people. According to their eyes, this hat looks good on anyone wearing it.
But when Li Ruhai heard people praising him, his little face put on more smiles. He raised his hands and moved the sides of his hat.
"Ruhai!" Yang Xue looked at Li Ruhai and asked with some worry: "What do you want to buy these things for?"
The conditions of Lao Li's family have been good this year, which is obvious to all in the village, but what Li Ruhai bought is very luxurious in Yang Xue's eyes.
Li Ruhai smiled when he heard this, turned to Yang Xue and said: "Wear it for work."
"Go to work..." Yang Xue and Wang Fu looked at each other, thinking that you are just a child, but you are still a gatekeeper, but you end up wearing clothes that are wider than those of the field manager and the secretary. Isn't this crazy?
"Ruhai!" Yang Xue often gossiped about other people's affairs with Li Ruhai, and they must have a good relationship, so at this time she said to Li Ruhai with some worry: "Do your father and your mother know? They are watching you buy this.
, I’m not allowed to hit you?”
When Yang Xue said this, Li Ruhai was reaching for the leather shoes. After listening to Yang Xue's words, Li Ruhai's little hand instantly stopped on top of the leather shoes.
But after only a slight hesitation, Li Ruhai grabbed the leather shoe on the right.
"It's okay." Li Ruhai smiled and said, "I just said I don't care if others borrow it."
"Ah?" Wang Fu, who was about to take a bowl of soup, was startled and frowned: "You kid, you can't tell a lie. If you take this thing home, who can believe it?"
"That's it!" Yang Xue came over with a plate of steamed buns with noodles. The couple was ready to eat.
Potato stick soup with two-faced steamed buns, plus a pile of pickled cucumbers, this is the normal meal for people in the forest.
Li Ruhai put on his leather shoes and lightly stamped his feet twice. He felt very comfortable, and then picked up the remaining leather shoe.
Before lowering his head to take off his shoes and put them on, Li Ruhai first said to Wang Fu and Yang Xue: "Uncle Wang, Aunt Wang, I will leave these two things at your house first."
"What?" Wang Fugang put a bowl of potato chip soup in front of Yang Xue. After listening to Li Ruhai's words, he didn't even bother to serve the second bowl of soup. He hurriedly asked Li Ruhai: "Why are you leaving it in my house?"
Li Ruhai said: "Normally I don't wear it. When our place is inspected and there are activities, I will wear it again. My dad and I will tell my mom that I borrowed it. When I get back from work, I will take it off and leave it here with you." Speaking of this, Li Ruhai smiled at Wang Fu and Yang Xue. Wang Fu was about to speak, but saw a big man coming in at the door.
This big man is none other than Li Dayong!
Following Li Dayong was Zhao Youcai.
Wang Fu and Yang Xue were stunned for a moment. Wang Fu, who was the first to react, quickly removed his hand that was preparing to serve the soup, stood up in front of him, put his palms on the counter, and shook Li Ruhai twice.
Unfortunately, at this moment, Li Ruhai lowered his little head wearing a marmot hat.
There is no children's version of this marmot hat. As for the adult hat, Li Ruhai will definitely wear it.
When he lowered his head, his hat slipped down, blocking his eyes.
Li Dayong was stunned when he entered the house. He thought that the figure and back of this child looked familiar. He looked like his youngest son Li Ruhai.
But looking at the hat on the child's head and the leather shoes on his hands, Li Dayong couldn't help but think to himself, how could this be his son? How could he have such a wealthy son.
But before Li Dayong could finish his words, the child spoke first.
Li Ruhai took off the cloth shoes on his feet, put the leather shoes on his feet, and put on the heels. When he raised his head and looked at Wang Fu, Yang Xue said with a smile: "I want to take it back and let my dad watch it. I
Dad is jealous. He is still a leader, so why don’t he just wear a dog-skin hat?"
As soon as Li Ruhai spoke, Li Dayong behind him was stunned. He looked straight at the child's back.
This is really his son! He really has such a son!
Li Ruhai often hung out in this small shop and got along very well with Wang Fu and Yang Xue, so he didn't hide anything he had in mind and continued to laugh: "My mother can't let her know, she's so
I spend so much money on this thing every day, but I still can’t buy a house?"
At the end of the sentence, Li Ruhai laughed twice.
Suddenly, Li Ruhai noticed something was wrong with Wang Fu and Yang Xue. Logically speaking, there should be laughter here, but both of them had serious faces and frowned.
The key is that Yang Xue keeps squeezing her eyes at herself.
Li Ruhai was startled and looked down, and saw Wang Fuli's hands on the counter constantly waving. Yang Xue was holding chopsticks in one hand, and the index finger of the other hand stretched out from the edge of the bowl, constantly slapping behind him.
of.
Li Ruhai's heart skipped a beat. How could he not know what was happening? In an instant, cold sweat broke out on Li Ruhai's forehead. He grinned and made a sound.
"Haha! Haha!" Li Ruhai laughed dryly and said to Wang Fu and Yang Xue: "Uncle Wang, Aunt Wang, I was just joking with you."
As he spoke, Li Ruhai raised his hands, lifted the marmot hat on his head, and placed it on the counter next to him.
Then, Li Ruhai put his hand on the marmot hat and said seriously: "I bought this for my dad. My dad works hard every day. As a son, I feel sad sometimes just looking at it." p>
After saying that, Li Ruhai folded his left leg from the knee, reached out and took off the leather shoes on his feet, then stepped on his original cloth shoes with his bare feet, looked at the leather shoes in his hands, and took off the other one.
While taking off his shoes, he said: "These shoes are bought for my mother. My mother gave birth to me and raised me. It's not easy to raise me. I have to let my mother enjoy happiness as soon as possible."
"Haha." Yang Xue chuckled and looked up at Zhao Youcai behind Li Ruhai. Li Dayong said: "Second brother, Brother Li, are you off work?"
As soon as Yang Xue said this, Li Ruhai's heart felt cold and he secretly said: "It is really so!"
"Brothers and sisters!" Zhao Youcai responded with a smile: "Give me two taels of white sugar."
"Hey!" Wang Fu put down his chopsticks first and said to Zhao Youcai: "Second brother, I will weigh you right now."
Li Ruhai knew that he would not be able to escape today, so he immediately turned around and widened his eyes, pretending to be surprised and said: "Oh, dad, uncle, are you off work?"
Zhao Youcai smiled at Li Ruhai, his smile should be as bright and bright as possible, as kind and kind as possible.
But Li Dayong was neither upset nor angry, neither sad nor happy, he just looked at Li Ruhai expressionlessly.
For a moment, Li Ruhai felt that his legs were trembling. In a hurry, he turned around and took the marmot hat, came in front of Li Dayong, handed the hat to Li Dayong, and said: "Dad, I will buy you a hat, you try it." p>
After saying that, Li Ruhai didn't wait for Li Dayong's reaction, stood up on tiptoe, and put the hat on Li Dayong's head. But in a hurry, the hat was put on crookedly.
Seeing this scene, Yang Xue and Wang Fu hurriedly lowered their heads and tried not to laugh.
"Oh!" At this time, Zhao Youcai stretched out his hand to straighten the hat on Li Dayong's head, and praised: "Ruhai, this kid is really good. He has been filial since he was a child."
Li Ruhai grinned and wanted to smile perfunctorily, but he couldn't.
"Second brother." Wang Fu raised his hand, handed the butter paper bag containing sugar to Zhao Youcai, and said: "Two taels of sugar."
Zhao Youcai took the sugar and said: "Let's keep track of the accounts first, and I'll give them to you someday."
"Second brother, what are you talking about?" Wang Fu said with a smile: "It's just this stuff, you can take it home to eat."
"That's not possible." Zhao Youcai tilted his head and said, "It's not the same thing."
Suddenly, Zhao Youcai paused, pointed at Li Ruhai, raised his head and asked Wang Fu, "We kids bought hats and stuff, but didn't you even pay the bill?"
As soon as Zhao Youcai said this, Li Dayong's eyes widened instantly. He suddenly thought of a question, that is, where did Li Ruhai get the money to buy shoes and hats?
You know, Jin Xiaomei only leaves Li Ruhai a few cents a month as pocket money. How long will it take him to save enough money for shoes and hats?
That means Li Ruhai may have other ways of making money. But what can a fourteen-year-old do?
Therefore, Li Dayong thought about it and found only one possibility, that is, Li Ruhai took advantage of Jin Xiaomei's absence and took money secretly from home!
Therefore, when Li Dayong looked at Li Ruhai again, his eyes were ruthless, just like Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai were aiming their guns at their prey.
But as for Li Ruhai, he turned to look at Wang Fu. It was Wang Fu who hinted to him before, but now it was Li Ruhai who hinted to Wang Fu.
But at this time, Wang Fu, just like Li Ruhai just now, did not see the other party's hints.
Wang Fu pulled out two bills from a pile of bills, put them on the counter, pushed them out, and said: "Leather shoes are five yuan, hats are six and a half yuan, a total of eleven and a half. Ruhai, you give me twenty..."
…”
At this point, Wang Fu, who was about to make a calculation, saw Li Ruhai's expression.
But as soon as Wang Fu stopped talking, Zhao Youcai asked Wang Fu: "Ruhai will give you twenty something?"
"Not many." Under Li Ruhai's attentive gaze, Wang Fu smiled bitterly and said, "Only twenty."
As soon as Wang Fu finished speaking, Zhao Youcai laughed and said, "That's eight and a half dollars left."
"Yeah." When Wang Fu heard this, he turned around quickly, counted out eight and a half cents from the money box, and wanted to hand it to Li Ruhai, but he saw Li Ruhai lowered his head and said nothing.
Wang Fu had no choice but to raise the money to Li Dayong and said: "Brother Li."
Li Dayong stepped forward to take the money, took out the fifty-cent note, placed it in front of Wang Fu, and said, "Give my brother the candy."
When Zhao Youcai heard this, he stood there laughing and said nothing. Wang Fu knew that it was useless to look at Li Ruhai anymore, so he immediately gave Li Dayong his forty cents.
Li Dayong put the money in his pocket, picked up the leather shoes that Li Ruhai had thrown aside, and then said to Wang Fu: "Brother, this kid has caused you trouble."
"Oh, Brother Li, you are too polite." Wang Fu smiled and said, "What is this?"
"Then you can eat." Zhao Youcai said to Wang Fu, then gestured outside and said: "Let's go."
"Second brother, Brother Li, please slow down." Wang Fu returned to the counter and waved to Zhao Youcai: "Come back later."
Zhao Youcai nodded with a smile, turned around and walked out. When Li Dayong passed by Li Ruhai, he paused and said in Li Ruhai's ear: "Let's go! Go home."
When he said the word "go home", Li Dayong was obviously gritting his teeth. Li Ruhai had no choice but to follow Li Dayong silently.
At this time, Li Baoyu and Lin Xiangshun were waiting outside the small shop. Li Baoyu, who was carrying a lunch box from Zhao Youcai.com, frowned and said to Lin Xiangshun: "Why did it take them so long to buy sugar?"
Lin Xiangshun smiled and said: "Maybe I'm chatting with someone."
"What are you talking about?" Li Baoyu pouted and said, "It's not like our family is like the sea."
As soon as Li Baoyu finished speaking, he saw Li Dayong coming out of the small shop, followed closely by Zhao Youcai.
Li Baoyu was startled. He felt something was wrong with Li Dayong, and suddenly he smiled.
Li Baoyu stepped forward, smiled and was about to ask when Li Dayong told Wang Fu to help him buy the marmot hat.
But before Li Baoyu could speak, he saw a small man following Li Dayong.
"Ruhai..." Li Baoyu frowned and said, "What time is it? Go home quickly..."
Before Li Baoyu finished speaking, he saw that Li Ruhai seemed to have tripped over something. He leaned forward and walked four or five steps forward in a chaotic manner.
"Ouch!" Li Ruhai exclaimed, but there was no trace of panic on his face, instead there was a hint of joy.
Just when Li Ruhai rushed in front of Li Dayong and was about to continue moving forward, a big hand grabbed Li Ruhai's arm.
"You kid!" Zhao Youcai grabbed Li Ruhai's arm and said with a smile, "Slow down the aisle."
Li Ruhai subconsciously tugged on his arm, only to find that Zhao Youcai's hand was like a plier, tightly holding him.
