In this year, although the father-in-law made a lot of money, it was nothing compared to the second wife.
Not talking about the interest earned by Gong Zhongfen, nor the extra money Dabai earned from hunting, just talking about the two major items of wild fruits and dolls, that is, nearly a thousand taels of silver were recorded in the account.
One can imagine what kind of mood Ye Laiyin has been in all the time. Well, he drinks a few sips of wine every day, not to mention the beauty in his heart.
Therefore, when the New Year came, his interest was even higher than that of Lao Yetou.
Besides, Ye Laijin was in a very good mood today. His youngest son's condition was getting better and better. Just now, he actually stretched out his little hand, pointed at the food on the table, and shouted, "Eat, eat."
This is the first time that he has taken the initiative to ask for food. In the past, when food was put to his mouth, he may not have liked it. With such a big improvement, how could he, a father, not be happy?
I'm almost floating with joy!
The gentlemen in charge of the family were all in a good mood, making the entire Ye family happy~
"Oh, this pot heats up so fast. It took just a few words to boil the pot."
The wild mushroom and pheasant soup that has been simmering for an hour on low heat has been skimmed off the oil, and only the clear soup is used as the base, and small ginseng, wolfberry, and red dates are added to it. At this time, it is boiling happily, and the sweet and fragrant taste follows.
The hot steam is floating, floating, floating~
"The chicken soup made by Er Ya Tou Chuan is really delicious!"
"Who says it's not the case? I'm even hungrier when I smell this smell."
Ye Guihua looked at her father and eldest brother. The second brother only looked at Qi Qi. You and I kept talking animatedly, and she was so anxious.
By the way, Lao Qian is also in a hurry!
"Second girl, hurry up and cook some meat! I'm already so hungry that I can't stand it anymore."
The big round dining table was filled with things, but they were all raw. There were not only five or six plates of raw meat, but also prawns, scallops, dried clams, fish fillets, meatballs, fungus, wild mushrooms, and potato chips.
Lao Qian had never seen anyone eating like this, but he was even more looking forward to it, because there was nothing that He Xiner cooked that was not delicious.
"Nai, these slices of meat are cut very thin. You can put them in the hot soup and rinse them a little, then you can take them out and dip them in the sauce and eat them. Don't pour them all in at once, as they will get overcooked easily."
He Xiner was very familiar with her grandma's temper, so she didn't care about her tone. She didn't want to cause trouble for herself since she was celebrating the New Year.
"Shabu shabu? Can it be cooked?"
Lao Qian had a look of doubt on his face.
Not to mention her, even the bosses were equally suspicious.
Seeing the hesitation of the big guys, He Xiner was quite interested. She simply stood up and walked to Lao Qian and said with a smile, "I'm going to do an experiment for you and your grandmother."
"This plate is mutton. Dabai hunted it. My father specially kept it and didn't sell it..."
"Yeah, mutton is good."
"I still have milk to try the meat that has been boiled in the hot soup, and then try the meat that has been cooked for a longer time..."
Old Yetou smiled and said, "This is a good idea."
After he took a bite of the tender meat, he couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's delicious, tender and fresh."
Then where can he let the meat pieces in the pot roll?
I quickly picked up the meat slices that had been cooked for a while, dipped them in the sauce and couldn't wait to taste them, "Well, it's old."
"Haha, I was still thinking about how long it would take to cook such raw meat and lettuce slowly. It turns out that I was overthinking it."
"Okay, okay, the way the second girl thinks of eating it is good. It's warm and comfortable to eat."
Then, the gentlemen didn't bother to drink, so they cooked a plate of mutton first. They ate it with smiles on their faces, and everyone praised it enthusiastically.
"It's the New Year, so it's time to be more lively. Sheng'er and the second girl also poured wine and had a few drinks with me."
