After chatting and joking for a while, Li Zhensheng urged, "Mom, you and your sister-in-law should take Fu Niu'er home. I'm here to keep an eye on you. My brothers and sisters are also very tired recently. They have a rest these days and are thinking about new dishes."
"The guests who book the table have no taboos, but they especially like to eat duck. Brothers and sisters, let's see if you can think of some different ways to eat it? "
"Duck? "Several ways to eat it quickly flashed through Tao Hongying's mind. They were just soups or stews. They were not really novel, so she frowned slightly.
Jiayin kissed her mother hard and blinked her big eyes hard to send a signal to her.
When it comes to eating ducks, Kyoto in the previous life was one of the best. There is no reason why Kyoto would be unpopular after getting Tianwu.
Therefore, there is no need for me to worry about this matter. Her almighty daughter has already sharpened her sword to the ducks!
Tao Hongying saw her daughter's His eyes were about to blink and cramped, and he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, let your eyes rest now, mother knows. "
After that, she explained a few more chores about the kitchen, then hugged her daughter and took her mother-in-law home.
The village chief, accompanied by Li Laoer, walked around the front hall and the back kitchen twice, looking satisfied.
On the carriage back, he discussed with Li Laoer, "After the boys in the village study for another two years, if they are not good at studying and don't want to go out to work, can we send them to work in Mr. Da's restaurant?"
"You don't need to pay anything, just come here to broaden your horizons, meet more people, and improve your skills."
"Of course," Li Laoer agreed for his elder brother in one breath, "Whoever you use as a clerk has to work. Son, and our own children can write and do calculations, they are much more reliable than outsiders."
The village chief beamed when he heard that, "That's it, that's it, when I get back, let the children study hard." They were
talking and laughing all the way . , arrived in the village soon.
It has to be said that there is strength in numbers. In just a few days, Li Yong's new house is about to be built.
The villagers are willing to contribute their efforts, and Li Yong is also willing to spend money to provide two meals a day at noon and evening. Every meal is meat, and everyone who eats it feels distressed.
But Li Yong and Hui Niang said that if you don't have enough to eat, you will have no strength, you must have meat!
Everyone had no choice but to eat every meal to their heart's content, and they didn't waste any energy on their work.
Everyone in the Li family was also worried about the fact that Mrs. Li didn't even enter the house. She went to the construction site with her granddaughter on her back to check on the progress, and then went to Liu's house to see the three little ones.
Tao Hongying also rolled up her sleeves and went to the village chief's house to help Huiniang cook.
Huiniang lost a lot of weight, lost the puffiness she had during confinement, and became a lot darker, but her complexion was very good and her eyes were sparkling.
Obviously, her heart is full of hope for her new home and the days to come, and she doesn't care how tired or hard it is!
In the evening, the Li family had to cook, but Madam Hui was the first to deliver the food. Uncle Zhao and other old men also ate at their house.
Everyone in the Li family worked hard all day without delay. They ate the ready-made meals and went to bed hastily.
Jiayin used the excuse that she missed her mother, so she held her close to her mother's chest and went back to the wing together.
As a result, when Tao Hongying turned around and washed her face, there was a pile of recipes on the kang, and a fat girl pointing her fingers, giggling and pretending to be well-behaved...
There was something she didn't understand, so she hugged her girl in her arms, Kissed again and again.
"My dear, Niu'er, I will definitely cook private dishes well, earn you a lot of money, and save a lot of dowry!"
Jiayin put her arms around her mother's neck, nuzzled her like a kitten, and sucked hard on her body. There was a faint scent of soap locust, and then I yawned loudly.
Tao Hongying patted her daughter's back gently again and again. When she heard that her daughter was asleep, she placed her on the soft mattress and carefully took off her clothes.
The girl is white and fat, her arms and legs are like lotus joints. Even when she is asleep, her little mouth still moves a few times, wondering if she is dreaming about eating something good.
It's so cute, you can't help but melt your heart just by looking at it.
Tao Hongying lowered her head and gently kissed her daughter's little hand.
Sometimes, she herself couldn't believe that she could actually give birth to such a good child, filial, sensible, smart and cute, just like a little fairy dropped from the sky to the earth!
Others may be unhappy when their children are naughty, but she just wants them to be naughty. Because this child is coquettish, gluttonous, and troublesome, she can make her feel that this is a real child and a piece of her heart.
"Go to sleep, my little girl."
Tao Hongying pulled the small mattress her daughter was sleeping on to her side, and then put all the recipes on the table, ready to copy them again.
Although she would not show this recipe to anyone, she always wanted it just in case. She didn't want her daughter to be in any danger.
I had to make a new copy and change it to her handwriting. Even if something happened, it would be her fault.
In this way, she was copying while guarding the sleeping fat girl.
The light of the oil lamp cast her shadow on the window lattice, unusually tall and solid...
It was another dusk, and the night wind was much cooler than before, and it was also sending a message to everyone.
That is, winter is coming soon!
Every household has cut firewood and stored trivial supplies, just waiting for the first snow to arrive quietly.
In the courtyard of the Li family, the old lady took Grandma He and Shui Yun to put out all the winter clothes.
Uncle Zhao and several other old men, family members, and even Li Yong, Hui Niang, and the twins had spread out a large kang.
These are the cotton-padded clothes of Jiaren and the other boys. They have been sent away, otherwise there would be a pile on the kang.
The old lady was holding a half-bald feather duster in her hand. After beating it one by one, she felt that her cotton clothes and pants were getting looser, so she stopped.
Jiayin had just changed into her washing coat and trousers, and now she was hugging her feet and rolling around on the bed.
The old lady saw it so funny that she pretended to beat her with a feather duster, which made the good news roll around more and more. She gave everyone a live show of "get out!"
Aunt He and Shui Yun laughed loudly. From time to time, they shook their cotton-padded clothes, lifted up their cotton-padded pants, pulled their hands aside, and helped Jiayin's "egg" to avoid grandma's feather duster, and continued to make trouble.
Just when they were laughing, Tao Hongying rushed into the house with a happy face and shouted, "Mom, it's roasted, the duck is roasted!"
Before the old lady could respond, the good news had already rushed directly into her mother's arms, shouting with a smile. She said, "Mom, eat roast duck, Fu Niu'er wants roast duck!"
The old lady also laughed, "Come on, go and have a taste! This fragrance has been floating all afternoon, not to mention Fu Niu'er, my mouth is watering too. It has become a river!"
Tao Hongying quickly hugged her daughter and led her mother-in-law out.
In the corner of the courtyard at home, a new oven was built yesterday. Because I was short on time, I didn't lay out the adobe bricks, so I just got the green bricks from Li Yong's house.
In fact, it is not accurate to say that it is an oven. It should be said that it is a large stuffy pot with a bottom for burning charcoal and an opening at the top.
Three fat ducks just hung on the edge of the jar, their roasted skin brown and sizzling with oil.
The charcoal fire below has a little residual red color, and when it encounters the dripping grease, it turns into blue smoke and floats up, making the meat aroma even stronger.
Tao Hongying carefully hooked up a roast duck and said excitedly, "The duck was very burnt this morning. This time I removed most of the charcoal fire and kept it simmering for two hours."
As she spoke, she put the roast duck on Put it on the tray and carry it back to the main room.
Everyone gathered around, sniffing the increasingly rich aroma and swallowing secretly.
Tao Hongying endured the heat and first pulled off a duck leg and gave it to her mother-in-law.
The old lady smiled and only bit a little bit, and then handed it to her granddaughter.
