Chapter 46 Cheng Huai doesn’t like eating fish?

Because the thing was too heavy to hold and put on his lap, Cheng Huai had no intention of taking the car.

After Jiang Miao was carried into the car by him, she stretched out her hand to hold him, "Cheng Huai, I have to go to the village chief's house to help in the afternoon. You sit with me."

She took a penny from her purse and gave it to him, "You go and give it to Uncle Li."

Seeing her serious expression, Cheng Huai couldn't refuse anymore, so he gave the money to Uncle Li, and then returned to sit next to Jiang Miao.

Jiang Miao grabbed his arm out of habit and turned to look at the chicks in the cage. After raising them for a few months, they would be ready to lay eggs.

When he returned to the village and saw Cheng Huai, Village Chief Wang shouted again, "Cheng Huai, come directly to my house for lunch!"

Although Cheng Huai didn't help in the morning, he could only do as much work as several people, so one extra meal was nothing.

Cheng Huai nodded in that direction and said in a calm voice: "I'll go back and put things away first."

"Okay, I'll ask Dagui to leave some food for you. Come here earlier." Village Chief Wang smiled and raised his hand.

On the way back, you could hear Aunt Zhang cursing in the distance, and Jiang Miao led Cheng Huai to take another road.

After returning home, the two children rushed over, Dabao hugged Jiang Miao, and Xiaobao hugged Cheng Huai's thigh.

Yu Ying smiled and carried them away, taking a basket from Cheng Huai's hand.

The chickens in the cage were shaking and chirping, and Dabao and Xiaobao were instantly attracted to it. They pulled the cage and looked inside curiously with their big black eyes.

Cheng Huai carried the flour bag to the kitchen and processed the fish.

Jiang Miao carried the chicken coop to the backyard. When she saw him chopping fish, she walked over and got some salt to sprinkle on it. She explained: "Put some salt on it to keep it fresh temporarily. You can wait until you come back in the afternoon to do it."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Huai slowly applied salt to the fish meat without letting Jiang Miao do anything.

Jiang Miao stood on the side and watched. The man's fingers were thick and long, and it looked like he had done a lot of work. She couldn't help but said: "Cheng Huai, come back soon."

"I'll cook fish for you. The fish I cook is delicious." She added.

Cheng Huai turned to look at her.

She has a nice smile and her crooked eyes are very comfortable to look at.

"Okay." He nodded, salted the fish, and went to wash his hands.

Jiang Miao put the chicken in the cage into a miscellaneous room at the end, threw a handful of vegetables into it, and put in a bowl of water.

"Miao Yatou, let's eat first and get busy later." Yu Ying stood at the back door and shouted.

Jiang Miao closed the fence door of the miscellaneous house and nodded, "Okay, I'll come right away."

Jiang Miao went to the front room to eat. Dabao and Xiaobao had already finished eating. They cuddled up next to Jiang Miao and shouted loudly.

Cheng Huai went to the village chief's house and took away the hoe. He might have to work in the fields for a while after he finished helping.

After taking a nap in the afternoon, Jiang Miao helped Yu Ying process the pork. In this weather, the pork won't last long, and it can only last for a day after being marinated with seasonings, so the buns will have to be made tomorrow at most and then taken to town.

Sold on.

People go to the market every day in the town, but those like them who stay in the village usually only go there once every three or four days. After all, there aren't many things to sell, and it's expensive to travel back and forth by car.

But now that the steamed buns are selling so well, Jiang Miao can't help but have other ideas.

If you open a store in a town, you don't have to go through so much trouble. The ingredients will be the freshest and the customer base will be stable.

But this matter cannot be rushed. Now there are two children at home who are waiting for food and need to be taken care of. Cheng Huai also has to go to the village chief's house to help. There are still so many vegetables that need to be watered and loosened.

Jiang Miao kept this in mind and thought about getting ready slowly before talking.

After coaxing the two children to sleep, Yu Ying was doing embroidery in the house, and Jiang Miao swept the floor and fed the rabbits and chickens.

After doing this, she went into the house and asked Yu Ying where he sold tofu, and then went out wearing a straw hat.

It was not very late when she came back from buying tofu and Cheng Huai had not returned yet, so Jiang Miao started to light the fire to cook.

When Dabao and Xiaobao woke up, Yu Ying took them to the backyard. Seeing Jiang Miao lighting the fire, he walked over and said with a smile: "Mom, come on, I'm afraid you won't be able to light the fire for a while."

"Mom, don't make fun of me." Jiang Miao stood up and stepped out of the way, slightly annoyed.

She was pretty good at cooking, but not very good at making a fire, and she couldn't always light it.

Yu Ying had a smile on his face: "This fire needs to be started slowly with thatch. If you are afraid that it won't light, just add more thatch and put small firewood in it at the beginning."

Jiang Miao looked at it carefully and understood the truth. Now that it was in her hands, the fire just wasn't very obedient.

Glancing at Dabao and Xiaobao who were playing obediently in the yard, Yu Ying turned around and asked, "Are we eating fish tonight?"

Jiang Miao nodded immediately: "Yes, let's eat fish stewed with tofu."

"That's good. Mom seems to have eaten fish only a few times this year." Yu Ying's face lit up with joy.

Seeing that the fire was burning, Jiang Miao cut the tofu into pieces and said, "Mom, doesn't Cheng Huai like to eat fish? Why don't you eat it twice more?"

"Does he like to eat fish?" Yu Ying wondered for a moment and shook his head, "He doesn't seem to like it very much. He dislikes the fishy smell. Plus, fish is expensive now, so I don't buy it much."

Jiang Miao was stunned for a moment, Cheng Huai didn't like eating fish?

Well, when he bought the fish today, he acted so neatly that she didn't even have time to say a word before he gave her the money.

"It's okay, ma'am, I'll put in more onions, ginger, garlic, and some of the rice wine you brewed later, and there won't be such a strong fishy smell." Jiang Miao said quickly.

Yu Ying hummed with satisfaction, "Nothing you cook is bad, don't worry, mother."

Thanks to her good eyesight, she married Cheng Huai such a good wife.

Jiang Miao laughed reservedly and modestly, and quickly heated up the oil in a pan. When the oil was boiling, put the fish down and fry until both sides were golden brown. Push it to one side, then put the tofu in and fry.

Then pour half a bowl of water, add seasonings and rice wine, cover and simmer for a while, and soon the aroma will come out.

Yu Ying's eyes lit up as she smelled it, "I really can't smell the fishy smell at all."

Jiang Miao opened the lid of the pot, waited for the fish soup to collect some juice, and quickly filled the pot with a large bowl.

She smelled it, and the fish meat was full of fragrance. "Mom, you can try the fish soup later. It's very fresh and sweet, and it won't smell fishy."

"I want it, Mom, I'll try it later." Yu Ying happily took the bowl and went to the front, with the two children running behind her.

Jiang Miao couldn't help but curl her lower lip when she saw it. It felt good to have family members, and her heart felt warm.

After dinner was ready, Cheng Huai also came back, earlier than yesterday.

As soon as I entered the door, I smelled the fragrance. Dabao and Xiaobao were sitting on a low stool holding a small bowl and chewing their lips. It was obvious that they had eaten something delicious.

Jiang Miao put the bowls and chopsticks away. Seeing that he was standing still at the door, she walked over and called out: "Cheng Huai, it's time to eat. Dabao and Xiaobao will drink all your fish soup later."

Meeting the woman's smiling eyes, Cheng Huai carried the hoe to the backyard. After washing his hands, he quickly came to the front.
