Chapter 157 Pickled Fish

Seeing Mrs. Cui's surprised look, Jiang Zhiluo smiled softly and patiently explained: "Mom, it's just like making noodles in a pot, except that the noodles made in a pot are made with vegetables, this time sauerkraut and fish are used.

"

Mrs. Cui said: "I don't know how to do that, so I don't know how I can help."

Jiang Zhiluo said: "Mom, you can knead the dough and cut the noodles first, and I will handle the fish."

Mrs. Cui nodded and said: "Okay."

Cui Hejin had already put away the farm tools and washed her hands. When she heard these words, she whispered: "Mom, let me make noodles."

Jiang Zhiluo hesitated while taking the fish from the basin, and couldn't help but look up at Cui Hejin.

She remembered that when she was not feeling well that time, Cui Hejin cooked noodles for her, which tasted delicious.

Even thinking about it now brings warmth to my heart.

Madam Cui frowned, "Can you do it?"

When she was in the Duke's Mansion, Cui Hejin had never been in the kitchen.

Even after being exiled, he could at most do something in the kitchen.

Or just make a fire to heat up the food.

When he talked about making noodles, Mrs. Cui was skeptical.

Jiang Zhiluo said: "Mom, when I was feeling unwell that time, we had lunch at home, which was noodles made by my husband. They were delicious."

When Mrs. Cui heard this, she immediately lost her doubts and said with a smile: "Zhiluo said it tastes good, so it must taste good. Then you can make the noodles and I will help Zhiluo."

Cui Hejin nodded calmly and went to knead the dough to make noodles.

Mrs. Cui looked at Jiang Zhiluo and said, "Zhiluo, I want to help you. What do you need help with?"

Jiang Zhiluo said: "Mom, take out the sauerkraut and wash it, and then prepare some onions, ginger, garlic and peppers."

"good."

Mrs. Cui went to work.

Jiang Zhiluo dealt with grass carp.

She washed the grass carp, cleaned its internal organs, and removed its scales.

Then use a knife to slice off the fish meat from the fish bones.

Jiang Zhiluo's movements were quick and neat.

After Mrs. Cui took out the pickled cabbage from the jar, she was shocked when she saw this scene, "Zhiluo, you are so awesome. Your skills are as good as those of restaurant chefs, right?"

Most of the fish and fish dishes she had eaten before were whole fish.

The honorable people in the capital are particular about eating fish whole.

Don't even remove the fish head.

And most people can't handle the fishy smell well, so it tastes just average.

Before, she only knew that ginger could be used to ward off the cold, but now she knew that adding ginger and some rice wine when cooking could remove the fishy smell.

Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said: "Mom, if you master the skills, you can do it after a few times."

As Jiang Zhiluo spoke, she tilted the knife and then filleted the fish.

Each piece of fish meat is very thin and looks very nice when cut into pieces, like a butterfly shape.

Mrs. Cui was amazed when she saw it.

She was even more curious. She really didn't know what the pickled fish would taste like.

But judging from Zhi Luo’s cooking skills, it’s definitely delicious.

Mrs. Cui really felt hungry, but she didn't care to marvel.

She quickly picked up the water and washed the pickled vegetables.

Even though I was busy with my hands, I couldn't help but talk to Jiang Zhiluo.

In the past, Mrs. Cui could not exchange a few words with her son all day long.

The main reason is that her son has a cold temperament. Sometimes she doesn't know what to say and she feels very depressed every day.

After having a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Cui felt happy to talk to Zhiluo every day and talk about daily life.

Moreover, Zhi Luo has a good temperament and talks sweetly.

This is a considerate little cotton-padded jacket.

"During farming, most people in the village don't bother to eat at noon. They eat in a hurry and then go to work in the fields."

"Some of them didn't go home with dry food. They just ate some and continued working."

"It's better to stay at our house and have some delicious food."

Jiang Zhiluo said: "Mom, since we plan to hire people to farm the land, we are not in a hurry. When the people in the village work hard, we will hire them to work."

"I just told Li Zheng, and Li Zheng said there must be someone rushing to do the work, so we don't need to worry about this."

"You and your husband don't have to work in the fields this afternoon. Let's take a rest."

"Uncle Liu from Aunt Zhu's family fainted because he was overworked and didn't eat enough."

"So no matter how busy you are, you must rest well and eat well, so that your body will be healthy."

Mrs. Cui also had lingering fears, "It's true that her health is important."

"I'm so exhausted that I really can't do anything."

"I don't blame you Aunt Niu for crying because she wants to be so strong."

"If your Uncle Liu can't do farm work, your Aunt Niu can't do such heavy work."

However, she still sighed: "Even though everyone in the village is busy with work, with such an atmosphere, I really can't sit idle at home."

Jiang Zhiluo said: "If Mom can't stay busy, I'll make more tempeh. We've been making a lot of chili con carne recently, and there are a lot of people ordering chili con carne from us. We also need more tempeh."

Fortunately, I bought a lot of soybeans before, which are enough for the time being.

Mrs. Cui nodded and said, "Okay, if you have something to do, mother, don't worry."

Mrs. Cui thought to herself that she felt a lot more relaxed since Zhiluo took care of the house inside and outside.

No need to worry about anything anymore.

She just couldn't help but miss her daughter occasionally.

I don’t know what happened to my daughter.

Without the support of her natal family, others are afraid of being influenced by the Cui family.

The noble family also pays attention to the interests involved. The Duke's mansion is gone, and there is no way to support the daughter.

She was afraid that her daughter would be wronged at her husband's house.

However, Mrs. Cui never mentioned this because she didn't want He Jin and Zhi Luo to worry.

Thinking about things, Mrs. Cui also washed the onions and ginger.

Jiang Zhiluo naturally didn't know what Mrs. Cui was thinking. She filleted the fish, washed it, and then controlled the water.

Then cut the fish heads and bones into sections, wash them and set them aside.

Then chop the washed ginger and green onions.

Then put it into the basin with fish fillets and fish bones. Place the fish fillets and fish bones in two basins.

Add salt and rice wine seasonings and mix well to marinate.

Then chop some onions, ginger, garlic and peppers and set aside.

At this time, Mrs. Cui also washed the pickled vegetables.

Pickled cabbage will be salty after being pickled. Wash it more often to wash away some of the saltiness and it will taste better.

Time passed little by little.

After everything was done, Mrs. Cui asked: "Zhiluo, are you going to light the fire next?"

Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "Yes."

Mrs. Cui went to the yard to get firewood.

Cui Hejin spends time every day chopping firewood for easy use.

Jiang Zhiluo cut the pickled cabbage.

After the pot boils, add oil. When the oil is hot, add onion, ginger, garlic, pepper and other seasonings and stir-fry.

After stir-frying until fragrant, add in chopped sauerkraut and continue to stir-fry until fragrant.

Then pour in appropriate amount of water.

Spiritual spring water is added to the water in the tank, and spiritual spring water is always used for cooking.

This has a spiritual aura and is good for the human body.

And the meals produced taste better.

After the water boils, add the fish bones and cook for a while.

Mrs. Cui looked at it and said, "Why don't you put the fish fillets in too?"

Jiang Zhiluo explained: "The fish fillets are very thin and cook quickly, so the fish bones are put in first."

At this time, Cui Hejin also rolled out the noodles.
