Fortunately, none of the eight eyes were aligned horizontally, otherwise he would have thought it was the reincarnation of the spider spirit.
"Brother-in-law, it's already three o'clock in the morning, let's see when you can make delicious food."
Um, is it three o'clock? It's 3:45?
"Ahem, it's my brother-in-law's problem."
Poor brother-in-law, I haven't eaten yet. Isn't anyone calling me?
At this time, Li Biyao on the side stared at Li Xiuzhu closely and suddenly asked: "Are you feeling energetic?"
Li Xiuzhu was startled. It was not surprising. After all, Li Biyao was also a third-rate master.
At the same time, he also knew why his three aunts didn't bother him anymore.
"That's right, I just had the feeling of energy."
Li Biyao felt a little strange when he heard this.
"It's strange, you are 17, why do you feel angry when practicing martial arts at this time?"
Li Xiuzhu was paused when he heard this. Are you... investigating me?
"But don't practice outside in the future. Practice in the house with the door closed. Otherwise, if you are disturbed by others during your practice, you will easily get distracted."
"At that time, he may be injured at least, or he may die at worst."
Li Xiuzhu nodded when he heard this, but he didn't pay much attention to it. The Beiming Divine Technique was different from other techniques in that the internal energy was dispersed in acupuncture points all over the body.
Even if it is suddenly interrupted, the internal energy will be instantly withdrawn to the adjacent acupoints, so there is no need to worry about anything happening.
But Li Xiuzhu naturally wouldn't explain this.
"Thanks!"
After thanking him, Li Xiuzhu looked at Fu Yunshuang and said, "Has the chicken been killed?"
Fu Yunshuang nodded when he heard this and said, "I bought ten of them and asked the cook to kill five of them first."
Hey, don’t you already have your share of roast chicken?
Li Xiuzhu was instantly in a better mood. Food is the only thing that beauty cannot live up to.
Li Xiuzhu led the four girls to the kitchen, and the room was immediately filled with the smell of meat. The four girls quickly ran out.
At this time, Chef Bao Da, who had been waiting for a long time, said: "Uncle, I heard from the second lady that you are going to make some food today. I wonder if you can let us take a look?"
This is not what Bao Da really thinks. At this time, Bao Da is cursing secretly in his heart.
What is this cheap son-in-law doing? He can just eat, drink and have fun every day.
Why, do you still want to come to their kitchen to get some work?
This is too unreasonable.
Li Xiuzhu didn't think so much, don't let free labor go to waste.
Li Xiuzhu suddenly said: "Okay, have you plucked all the chicken feathers? You can bring four people to do it with me."
"Okay, let's learn something too."
Li Xiuzhu looked at the chickens killed in the kitchen and nodded with satisfaction.
It’s not bad, there isn’t a single chicken feather, and the chicken is a good chicken. It looks like a free-range chicken from Qingyuan.
Who puts oranges in their cooking? Isn’t this nonsense?
Aren’t carrots only eaten when mutton is stewed?
Celery, if you put too little salt in it, it won't taste good.
And honey, is this for dessert?
But he actually came here to see a joke, so naturally he wouldn't remind him.
Li Xiuzhu looked at the seasoning boxes around him. There were also salt and five-spice powder, which was probably what the roast chicken was about.
"By the way, prepare some fennel, cumin, green mustard, pepper, and sesame seeds for me too."
It's a pity that there are no chili peppers in this era. If there were chili peppers, life would definitely be more perfect.
Good guy, I need a lot of things.
But these things can really be found, but you need to go to the West Market to buy some from a Hu merchant.
"This requires a lot of materials, and many of them are not available at home. I have to ask someone to go to the West Market to buy some."
"Okay, as soon as possible."
"First arrange for a few people to take a clean board and move it out."
"good."
To be honest, the chickens had just been killed in the kitchen, and not only the fourth girl couldn't stand the smell, but he couldn't stand it either. The air would be much better if we moved out.
At first, he originally wanted to only make grilled chicken wings and legs.
But he didn't know what to do with the remaining meat, so he simply made it into roasted whole meat.
As soon as Li Xiuzhu came out, four women, young and old, gathered around him.
Xiao Baozhu said with lingering fear: "Brother-in-law, this smell is too bad. Can the chicken be delicious?"
Fu Yunshuang said in a funny voice: "I don't see you missing a bite on weekdays."
After hearing this, Bao Zhu thought for a moment and realized that those chickens were quite delicious when they were ready.
"I won't go in anyway, it smells so bad."
Li Xiuzhu nodded in agreement.
"It's okay, I'll ask them to move out and we'll do it outside."
Li Xiuzhu said, "But before that, we need to make a stove."
"stove?"
"Yes, we need it for the roast chicken. We can find some tiles and some mud."
"It's still early anyway, we can see who has a more beautiful stove."
Fu Baozhu's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she immediately clapped her hands and said: "Hey, I've wanted to play with mud for a long time, but my sisters didn't let me play, so now I can play as I want."
This, didn't I unlock this girl's nature?
But Li Xiuzhu doesn't think there's anything wrong with playing in the mud.
Because the roof needs to be repaired occasionally, the house has tiles, and mud is inexhaustible.
After Li Xiuzhu and four women made five stoves of different shapes, all the materials were basically ready.
After driving the two dirty little girls to wash up, Li Xiuzhu and the chef started to process the chicken.
At this time, Fu Yunshuang and Li Biyao did not leave, but quietly watched Li Xiuzhu busy not far away.
When Li Xiuzhu was cutting the chicken, he suddenly discovered that the chicken's internal organs were missing.
Seeing this, Li Xiuzhu felt a little pity.
He also knows that people in this era don't eat those, but they are all good things.
Let them stay and do it themselves next time?
Forget it, five chickens are just one bunch of chicken hearts, it’s not worth the trouble.
It's a pity, but I could have kept it if I had a refrigerator.
First, rub salt and five-spice powder on the surface of the chicken until it is slightly warm.
First put in two cups of Huadiao wine to remove the fishy smell, then mash all the fruits and vegetables you want for the first time into a puree, add a certain amount of water, and marinate the five chickens separately.
Normally, the marinating time is two hours in the refrigerator, but now that there is no refrigerator, we can only marinate at room temperature for half an hour.
Li Xiuzhu looked at what others had made, and after seeing that there was no big problem with the proportion and concentration of the sauce, he went to the pond and got ten huge lotus leaves.
"Brother-in-law, aren't you making roast chicken? Do you also want lotus leaves?"
While cleaning, Li Xiuzhu asked: "I wonder if you have ever heard of beggar's chicken."
Beggar's chicken? When the two women heard this name, they were stunned. Isn't this food for beggars?
When Bao Da heard this, his face changed slightly.
"Hmm, is this what beggars do?"
Li Xiuzhu glanced at Bao Da and smiled. He also knew about begging chicken. It seemed that the cook knew a lot.
"No, but it will take some steps."
There is no way, the chicken at the beginning was not suitable for roasting over an open fire, and now there is no tin foil, so the beggar's chicken method is the only practical one.
