"Wen Shao, sit down and light the fire, and simmer the rice first." Xu Miaomiao directed the second child to sit under the pot.
After the rice was cooked in the pot, Xu Miaomiao began to process the meat. The pork belly was more delicious as braised pork.
With this in mind, she bought various seasonings such as peppercorns and aniseed from the system while Liu Wenshao was lighting the fire out of sight.
Fortunately, I have two pots at home, one for cooking rice and one for cooking, which is very convenient to distribute.
Xu Miaomiao started cooking after washing the pot, and soon the strong aroma of meat came from the yard.
This made Liu Wenxin and Liu Wenjun who were working in the yard sniff in unison, it smelled so good!
Liu Wenle here went directly into the kitchen of the old house, "Grandma, my mother asked you to pull some green vegetables. Now, here's it for you."
He was smarter this time and handed over the meat first to avoid being told by the second aunt that he wanted something for nothing.
Li Hongying opened the bag and took one look at it and immediately pushed it back, feigning anger and saying, "It's just a few green vegetables. What are you doing with the meat? Take it back quickly."
It’s true that the third daughter-in-law is sending something as precious as meat out. Even the four boys in the family can’t afford it, so she sends it here. I don’t know what she thinks.
"Miscellaneous, Mom said she would give you and grandpa something to eat and wouldn't let me take it back." Liu Wenle blinked and refused to take it.
Sun Fangfang sat under the pot to light the fire, rolling her eyes, and her ears perked up when she heard the word meat.
When Li Hongying heard that the third daughter-in-law was honoring her, she felt doubtful but still kept the meat, and then took Liu Wenle to pick vegetables from the vegetable patch in the backyard.
"When I was planting vegetables before, I even brought vegetable seeds to your mother, but your mother insisted on not wanting them. She is just too lazy to plant them. Now she knows how painful it is to have no vegetables to eat."
Li Hongying still couldn't help but complain to Liu Wenle about Xu Miaomiao. If Xu Miaomiao had listened to her, she wouldn't have left even a vegetable at home.
"Grandma, my mother is not in good health and can't do much work. From now on, just ask me for small things like growing vegetables, and I will do it too." Liu Wenle patted his small chest and vowed.
Li Hongying seemed to have heard something frightening. Even the fat body of the third daughter-in-law is not in good health?
So what do you call a skinny-looking person like her?
Li Hongying didn't say much to her little grandson. After all, the other person was his biological mother, and it wouldn't be good to talk too much.
While pulling the vegetables, she suddenly realized a question, "Wenle, why did you suddenly start speaking for your mother? Didn't you hate her before?"
In the past, the little grandson always came to her crying when he was hungry, saying that Xu Miaomiao didn't give him food. Why did he feel a little different now?
Liu Wenle said in a serious tone without blushing or breathing, "Grandma, please don't say such things again. Mom will be unhappy if she hears it. I like mom the most now."
These days, he has been smiling even in his dreams. He hopes that these days can go on forever and that his mother will always be so good to her.
Li Hongying expressed doubts about Liu Wenle's words. She wanted to refute but thought of the little half a pound of meat, and finally said nothing.
When Liu Wenle came back with a bag of vegetables, Xu Miaomiao's braised pork was almost ready.
The rice in another pot was poured out by Xu Miaomiao. She planned to use the rice pot to stir-fry the pig into the water. This thing was indeed difficult to clean, but Xu Miaomiao couldn't bear it and was willing to use the ingredients to wash it.
Fortunately, her sons didn't see how she washed them, otherwise they would have been distressed to death.
After the spicy and fragrant pig offal was fried, Xu Miaomiao fried some green vegetables.
After these two vegetables are fried, the braised pork is ready to be cooked.
“Set the table for dinner!”
Xu Miaomiao gave the order, and all four sons started to move, especially Liu Wenle, who pulled Liu Wenxin and went straight to the big table in the main room.
After all the food was placed, several people watched Xu Miaomiao sit down but remained motionless, staring at the food on the table and swallowing.
Even Liu Wenjun, who didn't bother to eat the food cooked by Xu Miaomiao, looked straight in the eyes.
The main reason is that it's so fragrant, it's the aroma of meat.
He hasn't eaten meat in months and now he can't even remember what meat tastes like.
"Hurry up and sit down to eat. Why are you standing and looking at each other? Aren't you hungry?" Xu Miaomiao looked at her sons strangely, knowing that these people would not dare to sit down and eat unless she opened her mouth.
Liu Wenle immediately broke away his grabbed hand and sat down first.
Liu Miaomiao handed him the bowl of rice she had just filled, "Try to see if the food I cooked is delicious."
It looks good, but I still need to try the taste.
The other three people couldn't stand the smell, so they also sat down, but they didn't dare to move.
Liu Wenle took a mouthful of rice and closed his eyes happily. The rice was so delicious!
He feels that he only needs to eat rice. He doesn't need to eat vegetables or meat. He is very satisfied if he can only have a bowl of rice.
Xu Miaomiao saw that he was not picking up vegetables, so she helplessly picked up her chopsticks and picked up a few pieces of meat and put them into his bowl, "Eat the vegetables. I made so much that even one person can't finish it."
"What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and serve the food. Do you still want me to serve it to you?"
As soon as these words came out, the boss Liu Wenxin immediately took a bowl to serve rice. He did not want to bear Xu Miaomiao's anger.
Even Liu Wenjun also served a bowl of rice.
As Xu Miaomiao ate, she realized that none of her three sons dared to pick up vegetables, and a series of ellipses flashed across her forehead.
Is she really that scary?
In desperation, Xu Miaomiao had no choice but to pick up the braised pork and pick up a few pieces of meat one by one, and then give each person some pig meat and some vegetables.
There is still a little bit left for myself to eat.
Several people looked at the meat and vegetables in the bowls with very complicated emotions.
None of them expected that Xu Miaomiao would even share her favorite meat with them, which made the eldest, second and fourth child so moved that they wanted to cry.
Especially when the meat entered my mouth, my eyes became moist.
Only Liu Wenjun, the third child, was guessing what Xu Miaomiao's purpose was.
A few people originally thought that pig sesame would be very unpalatable as usual, and it also had a strange smell. Unexpectedly, the spicy and numbing feeling instantly captured their taste buds.
Everyone was engrossed in eating and didn't even bother to talk.
After eating, Liu Wenxin was full of energy and took his brothers to shell the rice in the yard.
Nowadays, there is no automatic rice shelling machine, so the shelling can only be done manually. There are only a few rice mills in a village, and you have to queue up with the rice to use it, which is very troublesome.
It usually takes several weeks to finish all the rice. Some people think it's a hassle and just sell the rice without shelling it for money.
Xu Miaomiao went to take a nap after eating. Even if she was asked to do this work, she probably wouldn't be able to do it well. None of her sons expected her to do the work in the fields.
When the four brothers were drying rice in the yard and preparing to grind it, Li Hongying came.
