Chapter 196 Sister-in-law, you must be the God of Cookery
The cave where Shen Yue and Ji Xun live is at the foot of the mountain to the east of the village. Walk west for about fifteen minutes and you will reach the Shuijing Big Sophora Tree.
Five or six people hugged this century-old locust tree, like a giant umbrella held in the air.
Standing under the big locust tree and looking to the west, you can see densely packed villages. Walking a few minutes to the north, you will see a few sparse houses. The one farthest to the north is the house built by Shen Hong.
Shen Hong also suffered so much from Mrs. Wang that he moved so far away from them.
Shen Yuxi was ten years old when his father built this house. He was busy working on it and looking forward to living in the new house every day.
Five years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the new houses have turned into old ones. My father has not returned from the battlefield, and everything has changed.
Shen Yue and Ji Xun walked along the field path to the door of the house.
The house is not big, with one main house and two side rooms, and a small yard in front, surrounded by a sloping fence.
When I opened the courtyard door and went in, I saw that the inside was dirty and messy, with smelly cow dung everywhere, even in the main room.
Shen Yuyu frowned. This house has always been occupied by tenants, so it can't be like this.
It must be the damn mother and son, Mrs. Wang and Shen Yunlai, who deliberately kept the cows in the yard and made it look like this. Shen Yuhu held his nose and entered the yard. There was no place to put his feet. Damn evil. Tits and evil uncle!
Ji Xun found an old hoe somewhere and started cleaning the cow dung in the yard without even frowning.
Shen Yuyu silently put down the hand that was pinching her nose. She came from a countryside where crops and flowers depended on dung. She was not even as good as Ji Xun, whose hands and feet were so delicate?
What's wrong with cow dung? Shit dung still uses it as a delicacy, and people on the grassland still use horse dung as firewood and use it to lay walls. Well, if you think about it differently, it won't be so disgusting immediately.
Shen Xiaoshen rolled up his sleeves, found a broken shovel left behind by the previous tenant, and joined Ji Xun in shoveling shit.
First, clean the main room. The main room is paved with bluestone slabs. Rinse it with water and it will be clean. Then open all the windows for ventilation, and the odor will quickly dissipate.
The yard was also cleaned up. Ji Xun shoveled the cow daddies into a pile with a hoe and was about to throw them away when Shen Yuhu stopped him.
"Dig a few holes here, here, and there. I want to put a few rose flowers here." Shen Yuyu has been living in school since she was in elementary school. No one knows her longing for home. She must put them there. The yard is turned into a small garden, which is even more beautiful than the one at home.
"Okay." Ji Xun agreed.
Using a hoe, he dug five or six bucket-sized holes and filled them with cow dung.
The inside and outside of the house were finally clean and refreshing. Only then did Shen Yue notice that everything in the house had been emptied out, as if it had been looted by robbers.
Shen Yuyu remembered clearly that her father bought all the furniture, including a bed, tables and chairs, and even bought her an exquisite dressing table. Her father laughed at her tabby cat and told her to look in the mirror.
But now these things are all gone, and Shen Yunlai, the evil uncle, is plucking his hair like a wild goose!!
Forget it, don’t worry about this, just spend some money to buy it yourself.
Shen Yuyu counted on his fingers: "I have to buy three beds, two tables and six chairs, as well as suitcases for clothes and hangers for clothes."
Ji Xun interrupted: "I don't need to buy a bed. The big bed in the cave is fine for me.'
Shen Yuyu glanced at him: "I asked you for a jade pendant. Uh, wrong, I pawned you for a jade pendant and I can still treat you so harshly? Ah Feng and I sleep on the bed and ask you to sleep on the door panel? We are not that kind of people."
Ji Xun: I took a deep look at Shen Yu'an. After all, she is Shen Hong's daughter. Her nature is not too bad. If she really changes her temper, that would be something to be gratified about.
Shen Yuyu first thought about the things he wanted to buy, and decided to make a list again after returning to the cave to avoid omissions.
After such a busy time, it was already past noon. The little guy must be hungry, so he locked the door of the house, closed the courtyard door, and went back to the cave.
"Let's go shopping in town tomorrow and move in the day after tomorrow." Shen Yue said on the way back.
"Yeah." Ji Xun answered.
“Can you drive a bullock cart?”
"meeting"
"Then I'll ask Aunt Zhou to borrow a bullock cart tomorrow, and you can drive it, so as not to delay Brother Xingwang's work."
"good.'
In the cave, Ji Feng moved a small stool and sat by the chicken coop, watching the mother rabbit nurse for a long time.
Seeing that Ji Xun and Shen Yuyu were back, they stood up happily and said, "Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, Aunt Zhou's method really works. The mother rabbit ate the soaked beans and she really produced milk. Look? The babies ate happily."
"Really?" Shen Yuyu squatted down curiously, and sure enough, three little red meatballs were squeezed under the mother rabbit, raising their little heads and sucking milk comfortably, while the mother rabbit squeaked and chewed soybeans. What a heartwarming scene.
Shen Yuyu rubbed Ji Feng's head and teased him: "Take good care of him, my sister-in-law can make a super delicious dish called fried rabbit meat with ginger, green onion and spicy food."
Ji Feng stood up with a hurt look on his face: "Sister-in-law, how dare you~~ They are my babies."
Shen Yuxi smiled: "Don't you love delicious food? This is delicious."
"No, I don't love you anymore. Ah Feng will never eat rabbit meat, and my brother and sister-in-law are not allowed to eat it either! If my sister-in-law dares to have ideas about baby rabbits, Ah Feng will ignore you."
"Pfft~~ Look how anxious you are, I'm just teasing you."
After lunch, Shen Yuyu looked at the wild boar meat that he had marinated before and saw that it was already delicious and that it was almost days old.
He asked Ji Xun to make a round hook above the stove fire, and hung pieces of wine-smelling bacon on the hook, making the originally impoverished cave suddenly rich.
After keeping the fire burning all afternoon, by evening the water had almost dried up and the color of the meat had turned golden.
In the evening, Shen Yuyu decided to make fried pork lungs. He took out the half-smoked pork lungs, cooked them in a pot until soft, and cut them into thin slices for later use.
Heat oil in a pot, add ginger, chili, Sichuan pepper and other ingredients and sauté until fragrant, then add pork lungs and stir-fry, finally add wild onions, stir-fry a few times and serve.
When Ji Feng smelled the fragrance, he stopped looking at the rabbit and came over drooling.
"Wow~~Sister-in-law, what kind of dish is this? It smells so good!"
"This is a peerless delicacy. You'll know after eating it soon." Shen Yuyu didn't dare to say it. Ji Xun was determined to throw the pig lung away, so she was quick and snatched it back.
Worried that Ji Xun wouldn't eat it, Shen Yuyu fried some vegetarian cabbage.
After the vegetable cabbage was fried, Ji Feng couldn't wait to prepare the rice and set out his chopsticks, waiting to start.
"Come on, Ah Feng." Shen Yuyu held a chopstick for Ji Feng, "I'll keep you in mind for the next meal after you've eaten it."
Ji Feng took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it twice happily, "It's really delicious, sister-in-law, you must be the God of Cookery." He only regretted that he was short of words and could not express the praise in his heart.
Shen Yuyu looked proud, "Haha, is it delicious? Aran wants to try it too?"
