He Yunxi went back to the backpack he had brought with him in the afternoon and brought out tofu and chili sauce.
She cut the meat, fried it in oil, fried the fish, stewed it in crucian carp soup, then added the meat with spicy sauce and seasonings, stir-fried the meat, added water, and then stewed it.
Wang Chunye thought that it was a rare occasion for Lu Yan and the others to come here, so he gritted his teeth and scooped out some white flour. He Yunxi added some black flour into it, mixed it and made pancakes and put them on the pot of stewed fish soup. After one pot was ready, he changed it to another pot.
Liu Yan and Wang Chunye saw that her speed was much faster than before, and the food she cooked was much more fragrant. They swallowed unconsciously when they smelled it.
People in the yard outside smelled the aroma of the kitchen and felt hungry.
How come no one in the family could cook such delicious meals before?
He Yunxi was cooking and sorting out the affairs of the Li family.
Li Zhigui has four sons, the eldest son Li Changming, the second son Li Changfu, the third son Li Changfeng, and the fourth son Li Changyun.
Li Changming is thirty-eight this year. He and Wang Chunye have one daughter and two sons. The eldest daughter Li Yao, who is twenty-two, is married to the village next door. The second son Li Chengchuan is twenty and is the grandson of Li’s family. His daughter-in-law Zhao Fang, the two are temporarily
There are no children yet. The third son, Li Chenghe, is seventeen years old this year, the fourth in the Li family, and is discussing marriage.
Li Changfu is thirty-five this year and has three sons with Liu Yan. The eldest son, Li Chengchao, is eighteen years old and is the third in the Li family. His wife is Wang Chunye's niece Wang Xin and they have a son who is one and a half years old. The second son, Li Chengxing, is the oldest.
Six, is fourteen years old this year. The third son, Li Chengyue, is ten years old this year.
The fifth child is naturally the He Yunxi who was picked up.
The third child, Li Changfeng, should be thirty years old this year. He had been working in the city before. He was taken away by the conscripts when he was twenty years old and has not been heard from since. His wife died of illness in the second year of the conscription, leaving no children.
The fourth child, Li Changyun, is seventeen years old this year. Because he is studying, he has not yet discussed marriage.
Not counting the married women, there are now fourteen people in the Li family.
In order to keep everyone fed, He Yunxi baked about forty cakes and used up a lot of flour.
When there are more people, the daily expenses will naturally increase.
In addition to these, He Yunxi also made some minced meat and cabbage to make a pot of porridge, which was mainly for Li Zhigui, Li Changyun and the little Dou Ding at home.
After the middle medicine was boiled, He Yunxi asked someone to bring it to Li Changyun and Li Zhigui.
Soon, the stew was ready in the big pot. Because there were many seasonings, the aroma was fragrant. He Yunxi filled it up in a large pottery pot and filled it up.
Then she cut the tofu into small pieces, put it in the fish soup and boiled it for a while, then took it out of the pot and sprinkled it with chopped green onion, also filling the pot.
Along with a few plates of pancakes, tonight's meal was the best they had eaten in a while.
"It's time to eat." He Yunxi shouted outside.
Zhao Fang and Wang Xin came in and said, "I'm so sorry, Yunxi, you have to make food when you come back."
Zhao Fang and Wang Xin were neither good at cooking, so Wang Chunye and the others didn't let them cook tonight. Seeing the two large bowls of food made by He Yunxi, the two were envious and ashamed.
"What's the point?" He Yunxi smiled, "Didn't you always help me at home before? Come on, help carry out the dishes."
"okay."
A table has been set up in the yard outside. It's not cold yet, so it's convenient for so many people to eat in the yard.
"Xiangxiang, eat, eat." Xiao Douding has a few small teeth and is going to get the pancakes after smelling the fragrance.
"No." He Yunxi moved the cake away and placed a bowl of porridge in front of it, "Xiao Yu'er, you are too young now, so you can only drink porridge."
When the little fish heard that it couldn't be eaten, it started to cry when its mouth shrank. When it saw the fragrant porridge, it started clamoring to eat it.
Xiao Dou Ding was too small, so Wang Xin carried her to the small stool next to her and fed him porridge and tofu.
"Wow, Fifth Sister, your craftsmanship is much better than before!" Li Chengchao took a bite and praised.
"Well, there are more seasonings, so the taste is much better." He Yunxi said. Just as she was about to pick up the tofu, a pair of chopsticks had already put the tofu into her bowl.
She was slightly startled and said, "Thank you."
He Yunxi likes to drink crucian carp soup. He doesn't like to eat the crucian carp in it, but he likes the tofu in it. Lu Yan has discovered this from his diet during this period.
When the Li family saw this scene, they felt slightly relieved.
If Lu Yan did this, he probably wasn't unhappy that Yun Xi had brought back so many things.
"Fifth sister, what did you put in the dish? Why is it so red?" Li Chengyue asked.
"Red chili sauce, I brought you some. This is a bit spicy. You can add some seasoning when cooking. One bottle contains spice powder, and the other bottle contains mushroom powder. Both can increase the taste.
.”
"Wow, Fifth Sister, how come you have these things?"
He Yunxi told him that he hit his head and gained a lot of memories.
"When Yunxi came to our house, the clothes she wore showed her extraordinary status. I think she had a lot of experience before coming here." Li Changming said, "Then have you remembered your identity?"
Liu Yan clenched her hands nervously, not knowing what kind of answer she wanted to hear.
"No." He Yunxi said, "Maybe one day I will remember it, maybe I will never remember it. However, whether I think about it or not, I am a child of the Li family."
The Li family members were a little moved and felt that the food tasted better.
"Fifth sister, are your seasonings complicated?" Li Chengchuan asked.
"Brother, do you want to do the seasoning business?" He Yunxi knew that Li Chengchuan would go out and sell some things when he was free to increase the family's income, so he guessed what he was thinking as soon as he asked her.
"Yes. This dish tastes so good. If it is sold, there will definitely be a market." Li Chengchuan said.
"The cost of spice powder is high and it is not suitable to be sold nearby. As for the red chili sauce, I have already negotiated with Baiweilou. This mushroom powder is made of mushrooms, and there are not many mushrooms left now," He Yunxi said.
Li Chengchuan was a little disappointed, he thought he could make a fortune with this.
"This red chili sauce cannot be made this year, but it can be made next year." He Yunxi said, "This red chili sauce is made from the fruit of a plant we found in the mountains. The quantity this year is fixed, but it can be planted next spring."
"Planting?"
"Yes." He Yunxi said, "I plan to plant peppers on a large scale next year and use them to make red chili sauce when they mature."
"Then what's the profit?"
"After making the red chili sauce, it will cost ten cents per pound. This is the price this year. I don't know what it will be next year. But this is the only one, so the price shouldn't be low."
"What about the output?"
"According to what I found in the mountains, it should be at least two thousand catties." He Yunxi said.
In fact, she had seen on the Internet before that one acre of land could produce three to eight thousand kilograms. If the peppers in the valley were not planted well, the yield per mu could be as high as one thousand kilograms. If they were planted, two thousand kilograms would be produced.
It should be achievable.
The Li family took a breath: "The output is so high?"
