Chapter 712. It turns out to be the stupid dog Zhao Pao
In the evening at the end of October, the temperature in the mountains is nearly below zero. At this time, the doors and windows of the forest farm mailroom are closed, and wisps of blue smoke are rising from the chimney.
When the bell rang in every corner of the forest farm, the door of the mail room was pushed open from the inside, and then a small black buffalo leather shoe stepped out of the threshold.
Li Ruhai, wearing a marmot hat, Chinese tunic suit, and small leather shoes, stood in front of the window with a pair of small hands behind his back, walking squarely, and looked around at all the roads leading to the forest farm gate.
When the cold wind blew, the corners of Li Ruhai's clothes fluttered. He put his hands behind his back into his trouser pockets, thinking: "I just need a briefcase!"
But then Li Ruhai thought about it. He just wanted to wait for the leather shoes he ordered to arrive and make his wife happy. Then wouldn't it be easy to talk about everything?
Li Ruhai was well dressed and thought beautifully, her red face slightly raised, and she thought to herself: "I heard that there are guests at home today, so I shouldn't miss the excitement, right?"
Just when Li Ruhai was thinking wildly, a group of people came from the direction of the production workshop. Li Ruhai took his right hand out of his pocket, raised it in front of his face and shouted: "Uncle Ma, are you off work?"
"Huh? Ah..." Ma Dafu was stunned for a moment. He felt like he had seen Li Ruhai's posture in the newspaper!
As time goes by, more and more people pass through the gate and walk out of the forest farm. As long as they look familiar, Li Ruhai will say hello to them.
"Uncle Zhou! Brother-in-law!" At this time, Li Ruhai saw Zhou Chunming and Zhou Jianjun walking out together, and raised his hand to say hello.
"Let's go, Ruhai!" Zhou Chunming replied with a smile. After passing by Li Ruhai, he looked back at Li Ruhai and muttered: "This kid is better dressed than me, haha.
”
Zhou Jianjun smiled and said: "My child said that he would wear this outfit to attend the swearing-in ceremony."
"Hahaha..." Zhou Chunming laughed and said, "Let him go. His little guy will be in a crowd and no one can see him anyway."
Zhou Jianjun was startled when he heard this, then smiled and said: "That's right!"
At this time, Li Ruhai saw Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, Li Baoyu, Lin Xiangshun and Han Dachun.
Those people came from the north, and the road they took led directly to the forest farm gate. Li Ruhai stood on the right side of the road, watching Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, Li Baoyu, and Lin Xiangshun move closer to the left as they walked forward. As they walked forward, the four of them changed from side by side to
There is a line before and after, but they are all attached to the other side.
Li Ruhai's mood suddenly worsened. These four people were obviously avoiding him. What? Did he think he had embarrassed them?
Li Ruhai lowered his head, stretched out his hand to stretch the corners of his clothes, and then looked at the spotless leather shoes. He felt that they were flawless!
At this moment, Han Dachun walked up to Li Dayong from behind. He waved to Li Ruhai and said loudly: "Ruhai, your dad and I are going back first!"
Li Dayong: "..."
"Hey!" Li Ruhai responded, raising his hand above his head and shaking it vigorously.
……
When the commuter train arrived at the station outside Yong'an Village, everyone got off the bus. On the way home, Zhao Youcai invited Han Dachun to have dinner at his home, but Han Dachun refused.
At this time, at Zhao Jun's house, Huang Gui looked at the dishes on the table and couldn't help but secretly swallowed a sip of saliva.
Sauced roe deer tendon meat is rolled first and then cut into thin, round slices as thick as goose eggs. The meat is reddish in color and makes you appetizing just by looking at it.
Roe deer lips, roe deer tongue, and roe deer head meat stir-fried with green onions. This dish is full of collagen. There is no need to thicken the soup when it is served, and the soup is very thick.
Roe deer heart, roe deer liver, and roe deer belly are stuffed with dried chili peppers. This can be said to be a replica of roe deer. Stir-fry slowly with water until the meat and vegetables are all dry, the soup evaporates, and the flavor is absorbed into the vegetables. Fish head stewed with tofu and vermicelli is made in the Northeastern way, adding bean paste and simmering over low heat.
As the saying goes: Thousands of rolls of tofu are worth a thousand rolls of fish.
Whether it is tofu or fish head, the more it is simmered, the more delicious it becomes. The head of the big fat fish is almost half of the body. Wang Meilan asked Zhang Yuanmin to split the fish head with an ax and simmer it for an hour on low heat. When it was about to come out of the pot, it
Put the vermicelli that has been soaked all afternoon into the pot.
Eat the vermicelli into the soup and simmer for another ten minutes. When the vermicelli is cooked, the soup will be dry!
Take the stewed fish on your shoulder. Don't fry the fish. Stir in the soup first, then put the fish body and fish tail into the pot with a flower knife. When taking it out of the pot, chop a little coriander into it.
Stir-fried kohlrabi with dried tofu is to cut the dried tofu and kohlrabi into narrow strips. Then blanch the dried tofu in water and then boil it in cold water. Adding this step can make the dried tofu more tender and smooth.
Finally, heat the oil in the pot, add the dried tofu and kohlrabi into the pot and stir-fry. During the stir-frying process, break some red peppers and throw them in. When frying this dish, you cannot fry it in the house, otherwise the house will be ruined.
Too spicy to be patient.
Otherwise, under the wise leadership of Wang Meilan, the two large stoves in the Zhao family yard were built in vain!
These are six dishes, plus canned saury, canned luncheon meat and milky white roe deer soup. Wang's roe deer feast has eight dishes and one soup!
The original plan was to have ten dishes, but unfortunately we couldn’t achieve it.
At this time, Wang Meilan apologized and said to Huang Gui: "Brother, this is your first time at home, and my sister-in-law is wondering why she has to weigh ten dishes for you. Alas!"
Speaking of this, Wang Meilan actually sighed.
Huang Gui raised his eyebrows in embarrassment, glanced at the sumptuous dishes on the table, and then at Wang Meilan. He immediately made up his mind to find someone to kill the donkey when he gets home tomorrow!
Wang Meilan said this, and Zhao Jun at the side could not answer it. He could only listen to the old lady continuing: "There are not enough stoves at home. All these are stews. This is delaying things... Oh my!"
Huang Gui: "..."
Isn’t your stove enough? You even turn on the fire in the next room and use four big pots to cook together. What else do you want? The work canteen is not as good as this, right?
It's just that today's two stews and one stew require a lot of heat. Tofu and fish will definitely not taste good if they are stewed for a short time. Especially people in the Northeast love to eat stews, and whether they stir-fry or stew, they both
I like the soup to be dry. People here always say that stewed soup is dry and fried dry soup is delicious.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
As for the roe deer soup, it is even more difficult to stew the soup into a milky white color without the skills and hard work!
Comparing the previous pig-butchering dishes and bear-fish feasts, the pig-butchering dishes mostly consisted of stir-fried vegetables. Although the bear-fish feast included braised bear meat, bear paws, and even oil and pancakes, there were not many dishes on that day.
Wang Meilan felt that she had made a mistake this time and made a serious mistake when there were guests. Wang Meilan wanted to lose face to her son, to the old Wang family... No, to lose face to the old Zhao family!
Seeing Wang Meilan repeatedly apologizing to Huang Gui, Jin Xiaomei, who had a close relationship with her sisters, felt very uncomfortable. She immediately said to Wang Meilan: "Sister-in-law, when Xiaojun and the others come back from Lingnan, we will let the aid workers stay in my courtyard."
Plate two stoves."
When Zhao Jun heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Jin Xiaomei. Are these two sisters really going to work in the canteen at home like Zhao Youcai said this morning?
Huang Gui was also shocked by Jin Xiaomei. How could anyone eat like this these days? Generally, every household has a stove, just like Huang Gui's family, which is just a big pot. When guests come, his wife stews the vegetables first and then stir-fries them. p>
First stew a dish, then stir-fry two side dishes, and then get a can, so you can put together four dishes, which will be quite respectable at this time.
For example, those who do errands at home usually set up two stoves temporarily and dismantle them when the errands are done, so as not to leave them in the yard and get in the way.
This is the first time that Huang Gui, who has lived for forty years, has seen someone like Wang Meilan, who works as a gardener and cooker at home.
After listening to Jin Xiaomei's words, Wang Meilan nodded in agreement, and then said to Huang Gui: "Okay, brother, that's it for today! When you come back next time, see how my sister-in-law entertains you!"
Huang Gui: "..."
Huang Gui didn't even dare to say a word. He thought to himself that I would not come next time. After I came this time, your son followed me to my house and I had to kill the donkey for him. What about next time? I only have that donkey at home!<
/p>
After Wang Meilan finished speaking to Huang Gui, she raised her head and glanced at the big clock on the wall, then turned to Jin Xiaomei and asked, "Is it time yet?"
Jin Xiaomei also looked at the time and said: "It's almost twenty minutes, okay!"
To steam dumplings, you need to wait for the steaming in the big pot. If the filling is vegetarian, ten or eight minutes is enough. If the filling is meat, it usually takes fifteen minutes.
Zhao Jun's stuffing is a big piece of meat, and Wang Meilan also needs to steam a little onion mixed with the meat filling, so the steaming time is a little longer.
When Wang Meilan heard this, she turned around, raised her forearm and stretched out her right hand. Zhao Jun was stunned by this move.
I saw Wang Meilan stretching out her right hand, as if to shake hands with someone, then she threw her palm up and shouted: "Help!"
"Get the pot!" Jin Xiaomei shouted immediately, and then she went to the outhouse. Zhao Ling, Yang Yufeng and Xu Chunyan took the pot and went out.
Wang Meilan said that there were many people at home, so she took someone to make 200 large steamed dumplings and steamed them in three large pots. It happened that there was one pot inside Zhao Jun's house and two pots outside.
At this time, Jin Xiaomei, Yang Yufeng, and Xu Chunyan were inside and outside the room. They all held the flat spoons used for making dumplings in one hand, reached to the side of the dumplings, peeled off the steamed dumplings from the drawer cloth, and then put the other hand into the side.
Dip cold water into the bowl. Then use your hands dipped in cold water to pick out the dumpling.
This is done to prevent the dumplings that have just come out of the pot from burning your hands. Then, use the flat spoon to move the dumplings again, dip your other hand in cold water, and pick up the dumplings one by one on the plate.
Because there are a circle of people sitting at one table, three plates of dumplings must be placed on one table so that everyone can easily pick them up.
They say it’s better to arrive early than to arrive late.
While the three women were picking up dumplings, the foursome came back from get off work.
As they approached their door, hearing the familiar barking of dogs, Li Dayong and Zhao Youcai, Lin Xiangshun smiled and said: "My house has no lights on."
Zhao Youcai and Lin Xiangshun both laughed, but Li Baoyu pointed not far away and said, "Dad, why is there still Liang'er?"
"Oops!" The light was so dark that Li Dayong couldn't see clearly. He couldn't tell what the light source was even after blinking twice.
Only when they entered the Zhao Family Courtyard did they see clearly. At this time, there was a flashlight placed on the wall separating the Zhao and Li families. The flashlight was shining on the two large pots in the Zhao Family Courtyard.
Yang Yufeng stood in front of one pot, and Xu Chunyan stood in front of the other pot. Now both of them were picking up dumplings, and between them stood Zhao Ling.
Zhao Ling did not pick up the dumplings, but held a bowl in one hand. The bowls were filled with cold water for the two of them to dip their hands in.
"What a day it is..." Zhao Youcai muttered in a low voice. He felt that ever since he finished eating the butchered pork, his house has become more and more lively day by day.
"Brother-in-law!" Zhao Ling said hello first when she saw Zhao Youcai coming back.
Facing his brother-in-law and his wife, Zhao Youcai did not dare to neglect and responded with a busy smile: "Hey, here we come!"
At this time, Yang Yufeng and Xu Chunyan also greeted the people who came back. Just as they had finished picking up the dumplings, Zhao Ling shouted: "Baoyu, open the door for us."
Li Baoyu happily agreed and ran quickly to the door. Zhao Ling, Yang Yufeng, and Xu Chunyan advanced in sequence.
I saw the plates of large steamed dumplings, which were really thin in skin and large in filling. The skin of the dumplings with hot noodles was called "very translucent" in Zhao Jun's native dialect, and the filling could be seen through the skin.
As Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, Li Baoyu and Lin Xiangshun came in, the four of them couldn't help but exchange greetings with Huang Gui. All four of them actually knew Huang Gui.
After the greetings, everyone sat down at two tables. Looking at the delicious food on the table, Zhao Youcai, as the host, picked up the wine glass first. Today, Huang Gui, as the guest, took the place of Li Dayong and sat on the edge of the Kang with Zhao Youcai. p>
Zhao Youcai held the cup and gestured to Huang Gui: "Brother, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years. It's rare for you to come over today. We have a light wine and simple banquet. You treat it as your own home, use your chopsticks more, eat well, and drink well."
”
After working in the cafeteria for so many years, there are always people coming and going, and what Zhao Youcai said during the scene was pretty good.
After having a glass of wine, Zhao Youcai picked up his chopsticks and invited everyone to eat. The table was almost full of hard dishes.
What satisfied Zhao Jun the most was the large steamed dumpling stuffed with roe deer meat. Just like Wang Meilan said, these dumplings are steamed onions and stuffed with a big meat egg!
Because a lot of soup was stirred in, after steaming, when you bite open the dumpling skin, you will get a burst of soup. At this time, the dumplings are hot, and the soup is hot to the mouth, so Zhao Jun can only let it flow into the bowl.
Zhao Jun likes to eat dumplings empty-mouthed or dipped in chili oil. Originally, there was only chili oil in his bowl. At this time, the soup in the dumplings flowed into the bowl. The soup and chili oil were clearly layered. The soup was on the outside and the oil was on the inside. And that
There is also oil in the dumpling filling, so you can still see golden oil flowers floating on the red chili oil!
Zhao Jun ate four large steamed dumplings in a row. There was already a bowl of soup and oil in the bowl. Zhao Jun drank it all in one gulp and felt it was extremely delicious.
At this time, he picked up another dumpling with chewy texture. The outside of this dumpling was slightly burnt and crispy. This was because the dumplings were placed in circles when they were steamed in the pot. The dumplings with the outermost ring near the edge of the pot looked like crispy rice on the outside.
Average.
Zhao Jun felt almost full after eating five dumplings. At this time, the others also felt full, and then they started drinking.
The besiegers gathered together to brag and whine in circles, almost all of them drunk at this time!
Except for Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu and Xie Chen, the rest Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, Wang Qiang, Lin Xiangshun, Huang Gui, and Zhang Yuanmin all drank too much!
If you drink too much, it will be interesting to talk about wine!
Just listen to Wang Qiang say to Huang Gui: "Brother Huang, how did I hear that you have two nicknames? They say that when you live in Lingnan, you are called Huang Laopi, but when you come to us, you are called Huang Dali!"
"Fuck!" Huang Gui cursed, but he didn't scold Wang Qiang. He just heard him say: "Then you're not that bad guy, what's your name?"
It had been a long time, and after drinking a lot of wine, Huang Gui couldn't remember it anymore. At this time, he turned to Zhao Youcai and asked: "Brother Zhao, what is the name of that cook of yours, the one with rotten dogs?"
Is this something you want to do?"
"Zhang Zhanshan!" Zhao Youcai, who had drunk too much, mentioned his rival and cursed: "Zhang Zhanshan, that bastard!"
"That's it!" Huang Gui said: "That's the damn thing he named me Huang Donkey!"
"Oh, Brother Huang!" At this time, Zhang Yuanmin interjected: "Isn't it normal for us villagers to have nicknames? I'm still called Big Crotch?"
"Huh?" I have to say that Huang Gui had a very deep impression on Zhang Yuanmin. Hearing Zhang Yuanmin's words, Huang Gui was surprised and said: "Didn't you tell me what your name is, Little Zhuge?"
"Oops!" Zhang Yuanmin waved his hand and said: "Your brothers have many nicknames. Not only these two, there is also Wei Yan..."
"Ah..." Huang Gui didn't seem to understand very well, but after drinking too much, something suddenly came to his mind. He suddenly turned to Zhao Youcai and said, "Brother Zhao, I just remembered, that Zhang... Zhang, what are you paying back?"
