Chapter 84 I am very happy!

Braised pork with braised pork and braised pork with dried plums and vegetables, which are popular among Hakka people, each have their own characteristics.

The dried prunes are fried in lard until they are fragrant and dry, and a little chopped red pepper is added to enhance the whole taste.

After making braised pork with pickled vegetables, the crispy pickled pickled vegetables are half-stretched in golden lard.

The fat meat cut into cubes or slices has been coated with soy sauce. It is black and golden, and is dipped in black and shiny pickles. Every bite is full of fragrant fat.

With the unique salty and sour taste of umeboshi and the slight spiciness of crushed red pepper, you can have a bowl of rice just by eating umeboshi without eating meat.

Xiao Dongming loves to eat the braised pork with dried plums and vegetables made by Mrs. Xiao.

Sometimes he would go to a relatively far place to collect grain, so he would bring a small glass jar and an empty aluminum lunch box with him, along with a few meters.

When it's time to eat, just find a place with a water source, build a small stove with stones, collect some firewood, wash the rice and fill it with water, put the aluminum lunch box on the fire, and you can cook a box of rice in twenty minutes.

Paired with the roasted pork with dried prunes and vegetables that I brought with me, I felt full in my stomach and felt energetic even after walking a few miles carrying things.

The braised pork I had today was very different. The braised pork was as shiny as glaze and cut into square pieces. It was wrapped in thick red sauce and was already mouth-watering just by being placed on the plate.

Put a piece into your mouth, it's sweet and oily, fat but not greasy. It's obviously a sweet dish that he doesn't like, but because of the right salty and fresh sauce, the sweetness is ignored.

He thought about it for a long time, but still felt that his vocabulary was too lacking, and thousands of words could be condensed into the word "delicious".

Whether it's chicken stewed with five-finger peach or braised pork, or dried fish roasted with chili peppers, scrambled eggs with green peppers, or fried sweet potato leaves with minced garlic, in his opinion, they are all extremely delicious.

During this period, I talked with Lin Yuzhu about cakes and straw hat braids. Lin Yuzhu also briefly mentioned several kinds of snacks that I would make in the future. The two of them had a very good conversation.

Fang Shuhui didn't say anything, but took the rice from him every time his bowl was empty.

Before he knew it, he was full.

"Sister-in-law Yi, your craftsmanship is indeed first-class. Brother Yi will be so happy in the future." He touched his belly with satisfaction. "You have to walk around after eating. I will go to the Song family next door to see Aunt Song. I will come back later to get it.

cake."

"Okay, I'm going to make a cake right now. I don't have enough time today, and I didn't prepare that many small bowls, so I can just make about seven pounds. I'll make more for you next time when I have everything ready."

It takes too much time to cook at noon, and there is still work in the afternoon. If I want to make a large number of cakes, I can't spare the time, so I can only let the family go to work later.

Xiao Dongming's eyes inadvertently drifted to Lin Yulan who was clearing the table. He raised and lowered his fingers touching his belly and smiled at Lin Yuzhu.

"I'm not busy right now. Tell me what you want to buy. I'll bring it to you to save time. Seven kilograms is not enough to sell for two days. Even ten kilograms is too little for me."

"This is too troublesome for you." Lin Yuzhu lowered his eyes and hesitated.

It was certainly a time-saving and effort-saving thing to have someone running errands, but she and Xiao Dongming were not really close, and today was only the third time they met.

It's a bit embarrassing to bother someone to buy something specially for me to send it to you.

"Hey, don't worry about me being troublesome. Isn't our goal to make money? It's only a few miles away. Doesn't it cost me a lot of footwork to collect things elsewhere? Now the God of Wealth is waiting so much.

, I’m very happy!”

What he said was reasonable and generous. Lin Yuzhu was not a shy person and agreed immediately.

"Okay, I really can't spare any time here, so I'll leave it to you."

"Look at what you said, you don't have to be polite! I'll go next door first. If you want to help, come and shout. I have a lot of free time today, just waiting for your cake to come out of the pan!"

Xiao Dongming stood up, picked up his things and walked out with a smile, his whole person was filled with high spirits.

It was impossible to fall asleep during the afternoon nap, but the mother and daughter were very energetic working in the kitchen.

Fang Shuhui washed the dishes and pots, and Lin Yulan took on the task of beating egg whites.

She puffed up her face and beat the egg whites vigorously, so fast that only the afterimage was left. Making cakes can be sold to improve the quality of life, which makes her feel happy when she thinks about it.

"Sister, why are you teasing me while we are eating?"

"I'm afraid that people will misunderstand that you are interested in him."

The low-gluten flour made last time was not enough, so Lin Yuzhu took out the remaining flour and steamed it into low-gluten flour.

While spreading the flour, she glanced at Lin Yulan, who had a confused face, and said seriously, holding back a smile: "Xiao Dongming is a big young man, and you and him are of the same generation. Unless you are her partner or an elder, you will be cheated by him."

The only thing is to tease him."

"If he has no partner and is not married, it is easy to say that he flirted with the wrong person, and there is still a chance to clarify the misunderstanding. If he has a lover, come over and make a fuss, and things will become serious."

She only knew that Xiao Dongming and Song Yi had contacts, but she didn't know anything about his family situation.

I didn’t ask during the meal, after all, they were here to discuss business, not for a blind date.

Lin Yulan was confused, "Ah? I just thought that he would help kill the chicken. He is a nice guy, so I gave him a chicken leg. I didn't expect that there would be so much to talk about..."

"I don't have any thoughts about him. It's wrong to fall in love early. It affects your studies... uh..." She said casually, then paused.

She hasn't changed her mind from when she was a high school student, and those words are her universal answer to her mother asking if she has a boyfriend.

It's not that no one chases her in school, there are always a few people who are not afraid of death and dare to ask someone to give her something to express their love for her.

Other girls blushed when they were confessed, but when it came to her, she said: Tell him to stay away after class, and see if I can beat him to death!

Lin Yuzhu took in her expression completely, rolled his eyes and looked at her with disgust.

"You bastard, please don't give me any official answers. I won't interfere with your emotional issues. You are an independent-thinking adult and can make your own decisions."

If they hadn't come here, they wouldn't have been brought together.

This Silly Que is not someone who lacks love. The chance of being deceived is low, so she is not very worried.

Lin Yulan stopped and curled her lips, "This damn place is so poor that they can't even take care of food and clothing. They either work or work every day, and they even fall in love with each other."

"Huh? I feel like I'm being attacked." Lin Yuzhu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "I won't let you eat the cake today."

You don’t have to talk about love, but you have to eat the cake!

Lin Yulan changed her disdainful look, hugged the basin and nudged it over, with a flattering smile on her face, "I didn't say anything about you~ My brother-in-law is an invincible, super and good man in the universe, you are the best match, you are a perfect match!"

"Forget it, you should just shut up and work." Lin Yuzhu slammed the steamer cover, completely speechless.

This is like a mudslide. Praising someone is no different than scolding someone!

While working, Fang Shuhui smiled and watched the two sisters bickering with each other.

Dappled sunlight casts down from the leaking tiles on the roof, jumping on their bodies as they walk, like two butterflies busy among the flowers.

When the work bell rang in the afternoon, Lin Yuzhu was still mixing the second pot of batter. There were not so many people needed for the rest of the work, so she simply asked Fang Shuhui and Lin Yulan to go to work first, while she stayed at home and continued to finish the cake.

.

Anyway, the current bell is used to tell the time to the members, so it doesn't matter if you go a little later.

Xiao Dongming stayed at the Song family for a long time, mainly because Song's mother was very enthusiastic. After accepting the heavy gift, she quickly asked Sister Song to cook poached eggs with sweet wine to entertain the guests.

He was already full, but after eating six poached eggs and half a bowl of sweet wine, he was already so stuffed that his stomach hurt. The wine was so strong that his whole body started to turn red and feel dizzy.

Sister-in-law Song Wu saw that he was swaying a little when walking, and she was not worried that he was drunk and rushing back to town, so she simply asked him to sleep in Song Yi's room to relieve the alcohol.

I slept until mid-afternoon. When I got up, I said hello to the Song family and hurried to the Lin family to get the cake.

Lin Yuzhu was sitting at home waiting for him but she didn't see him coming, and it was hard to go out. Seeing that the small bowls were empty, she simply made another pot.

This made Xiao Dongming so happy that he not only filled the big rattan bag he brought with him, but he also carried a basket home if it couldn't hold it.
