The construction site was in full swing, and the riverside was bustling with activity. Lobsters were not easy to manage in mountain villages, and there were usually few of them. There was a river full of lobsters, and there were a lot of them.
Dudu didn't even fish anymore. He held the net bag and waved it, not to mention scooping a lot. "Okay, Dudu should go back." Li Han saw that the little red bucket he brought was full, so he had to call everyone.
.
"Ah, it's full so quickly. I haven't even had enough fun yet." Xu Yao was fishing for strength. This girl didn't know that she was lucky, picked a good position, or had good skills. Apart from Dudu and Baobao,
She is the one who catches the most.
"Let's go, we need to clean up when we get back." Li Han carried a small bucket, one bucket of cicada monkeys, one bucket of crabs, and three buckets of lobsters. The harvest was extremely rich.
The people in the city were all very happy. They caught and bought their own fish, and took them all in large and small bags to the village to find someone to burn them. When Li Han saw it, he had to talk to Lao Da and discuss inviting the second master.
The second master's cooking skills are the best in Li Jiapo. It's hard to imagine how many people from all over the country would ask the second master to cook for them. "Er Da, look, is it okay?" Li Pingzheng was afraid that the second master would disagree and said that was all.
once.
"Set up the big pot, I have the seasonings here, you go and greet the big guys." The second master rolled up his sleeves, I am really happy today. Building roads has been a dream of several lifetimes and it has come true today. It is time to celebrate.
Seasonings, star anise, cinnamon, Sichuan peppercorns, dried chili peppers, and herbs were stuffed into most of the cloth bag. He was carrying a big spoon and was wearing a white button-down shirt. Li Han was in a daze when he saw it. He hadn't seen the second master dressed like this in many years.
.
Li Pingzheng said hello to the village. Big guys, if you can move, all the tables, chairs and benches at home have been moved to the entrance of the village. Li Han and the third brother have just released the seventh baby. The three brothers who can move carry a three-foot large pot and put it on the stove at the entrance of the village.
Go up. "Get firewood from my house." Li Pingzheng said, patting his chest.
"It's not enough, I have more at home." The third brother is not stingy.
"I have some at home," said the third master.
"Qiwazi come with me to get it."
Li Han, Third Brother, and Qi Wa came back with a wooden cart and a cart of firewood. They haven’t used the horn for many years. I don’t know if it can still be used, Lao Da said with a smile.
"Cough cough cough."
There was a coughing sound at the entrance of the village, which made everyone laugh. "Let me say a few words, there are so many guests in the city today, our village has nothing to entertain, so we have enough rice."
After Li Pinghe finished speaking, Li Han continued, "Well, we have rice, a big pot of rice, fragrant and delicious dishes. Today we all gather together, let's have a meal."
"Lobster, crab, cicada. Just as much as you like."
After Li Han finished speaking, he asked, "Would you guys like to try the craftsmanship of our mountain people?" "Yes." "Okay, then, the men will wash the lobsters and crabs, and the women will wash the vegetables."
Dozens of families, plus twenty or thirty children, lined up to wash vegetables, carrying small buckets and small basins. This scene has not been seen for many years. Hao Li took the camera after Li Han said to change the vegetables.
He didn't stop. He took pictures of lively and tender scenes. The children ran before and after, and the adults talked and laughed while washing. If anyone had a good idea, they shouted loudly.
There was no restraint at all, and it was very lively. It was the first time for a woman to try washing vegetables in the river. It felt nervous and novel. They were laughing and chatting. Everyone said that she was still nervous about washing vegetables, and it was very lively for a while.
Li Han brought a lot of fruits and vegetables from home to add dishes to everyone. The second master set up two large pots, one for steaming yellow rice, one for stir-fry, and a large spoon. Several women from the village nearby were responsible for cutting.
vegetable.
No, there are two little cooks inside, Dudu and Baobao, wearing little chef clothes, holding kitchen knives and cutting in style. "These two kids will definitely be successful when they grow up, they can do everything."
"Don't tell me, you said Xiaoliuzi is so rich. I heard that foreign countries have a palace like a palace, and the boss is the boss." The third aunt gestured.
"Third aunt, that's a farm, a palace or something." The old aunt said with a smile. "However, these two children are really promising. They talk like little adults. You didn't see them that day. They talked about foreign countries and howled.
.”
"Foreign languages, hey, what's the point? How can you not know foreign languages when you live in a foreign country." The third aunt curled her lips and said. "What, as a child, I can't learn any foreign languages.
"
"Really?"
"No, Third Aunt, it's hard to speak foreign languages." Qiwazi came over with water.
"It's your sixth brother who has the solution. It's all because of your sixth brother that your baby came out so quickly." The fifth aunt next to her patted the seventh baby.
"Hehe, I know."
Qiwazi said, "Don't get involved with Li Xiaohu again in the future." "I've already repaid the favor."
"What are you talking about? Is the food ready?" The second master shouted when he saw these women chatting.
"Second Master, let me help."
Li Han came over and picked up the big spoon. You can't play with this thing without any strength. "Okay, let me see if your strength has lost." The second master stood on the side. Li Han thought it was quite simple, so he waved it.
The spoon is nothing, as long as you have enough strength, but who knows, once you start using it, something will feel wrong, and the spoon will not obey you.
It was hard to play, and the dishes were pushed out several times. "You have to paddle with the dishes, not with brute force." The second master stood on the side and gave instructions. Li Han followed the second master's instructions, rowed, and came down after a few strokes.
Don't say it, it's really okay.
"Don't be too careless. This is just the beginning. It takes more than just being able to paddle to make a big pot of food." The second master took the spoon and stroked it, hugged it, pulled it, and picked it up. His movements were brisk and natural, and his strength was just right.
Li Han couldn't help but admire him. The second master didn't use as much force as he did, but the effect was several cups. I really can't believe it. His proficiency has not stopped at all. "Second master, your actions have not changed at all after so many years."
.”
"I am getting old and there is no progress."
The second master said with a smile.
"This is already great."
"Yeah, the second master is so awesome."
Dudu and the little baby stood on the side and clapped their hands vigorously. "Haha, Dudu, you are better than dad, and baby, your uncle was still crying when he was this big."
"Wow, daddy is so shy."
"Uncle is so shy."
The two little men looked at Li Han with big eyes, and scraped their little faces with their little hands, shyly. "Chop the vegetables well." Li Han made a serious face, and the second master next to him sighed, in a blink of an eye, they have grown so big, even children can do it.
Cutting vegetables.
"I'm old, I'm old," the second master said.
"No, Second Master, with your body, there is absolutely no problem in living to be one hundred and twenty years old. There are still fifty or sixty years left." Li Han said with a smile.
"That's not enough." As the second master spoke, he picked up the salt bag and pulled it out, spreading the salt all over the big pot. He waved the spoon, scratched, pulled, hugged, and picked, all in one set of skills.
"Okay, take it out of the pot."
He picked up the spoon, tasted it, and shouted loudly, "Here it comes." A large basin came up, containing two large basins. Li Han carried it, placed it on the long wooden board, arranged the lotus leaf bowl, and held the spoon, one bowl at a time.
Spicy lobster, steamed crab, green vegetables, pickles, yellow rice, fragrant. "Here it is, let's serve it." With a shout, the dish was served, and the child cheered.
"We are not particular about today. Everyone has enough to eat and drink well."
The engineering team was off work now, and they came to wash and wipe the dishes and put them on the table. Li Han was carrying a large basin of lobster, and Dudu and Bao Bao were holding a large pot of Laobaigan.
"Come on, Mr. Zhao, I respect you."
"Okay, one, but not too many. I have to work in the afternoon." Zhao Gong raised the bowl with a smile, drank half of the bowl, wiped his mouth, and said with a smile.
"Don't drink too much, just one bowl per person."
Li Han poured more for himself, and drank a bowl as a toast to the big guys. He drank two bowls. "What a drinker." "When the road is completed, let's have a good drink."
Li Han said, and Zhao Gong and others all said that it was for sure. Li Han held the wine bowl and moved it around, as a courtesy to the host. Returning to the second master's table, the second master smiled and had a large plate of yellow rice crispy rice.
Serve it up.
"What your baby likes to eat."
The inch-thick rice crispy rice is golden and fragrant, not to mention how fragrant it is. "It's so fragrant. You can't eat it normally. Only in big pots and firewood-fired rice can you eat such thick yellow rice rice crispy rice rice crispy rice."
"If you like to eat, eat more. I secretly packed a bag for you." The second master said in a low voice. Not far away, Dudu snickered. The little girl's bag was bulging. She must have put it in the bag.
"Thank you, Second Master. Let me toast you." Li Han poured a glass for the Second Master and toasted with his own bowl. "Don't drink too much." The Second Master was happy, picked up the wine and drank it in one gulp.
"Jennifer, Linna, eat."
"Xu Yao, Chen Xue, you two eat more."
"Hey, you don't need to tell me, Second Master, this dish is really delicious." Xu Yao chuckled, facing a small mountain bun that looked like a lobster shell. Li Han didn't know what to say when he saw it.
"Little girl, I like to eat more."
"Thank you, Second Master." Xu Yao chuckled, not wanting to hear about the lobster. Dudu and Bao Bao, two little people, were holding lobster claws while eating, and then picked out the meat to eat.
The little guys had a great time competing to see who had more lobster claws and the bigger claws. After a while, the little guys had almost eaten. They circled around the table, playing and chasing. The city kids started
He was still reserved, and soon joined the crazy kids, making more noise than the children in the village.
My parents saw each other and laughed. They didn't know each other at first. After a meal, they became familiar with each other. They left their phone numbers and talked about going back to the city and hanging out together when they had time.
The city children also made friends with the village children. The city children brought out snacks and fun toys, and the village children brought out a collection of cans, small wild fruits, and small toy guns made of wood in exchange.
After a meal, everyone lost all sense of distance. They were excited and happy, and they were really playing like a family. "Come on, let's toast our master." A middle-aged man stood up.
"Yes, that's right. We should pay a toast to the master chef. This dish is amazing. Not many hotels in the city can match this taste." A middle-aged man who was well-dressed said.
"Come on, come on, let's make a toast together." Everyone stood up, and the second master stood up and raised his glass. (To be continued)
