Chapter 10848
Not long after the eldest Sun left, Yang Ruoqing also got up and moved to another place with two stripped chickens and ducks.
Just pulling the chicken and duck feathers with your fingers will not clean them at all.
So Yang Ruoqing blew the fire off and grilled it close to the skin of the chicken and duck.
After a round, the hair roots hiding in the pores were burned away, and the skin of the chicken and duck also showed a light golden color.
The color looked very good. Yang Ruoqing changed them into pieces, washed them with water, and set them aside to filter and set aside.
Put the chicken offal and duck offal aside separately.
After doing this, Blacksmith Luo came back from outside, carrying a fat-headed fish weighing seven or eight kilograms in his hand.
Because the fat-headed fish just came out of the water, even though it was controlled by Blacksmith Luo in the net bag, it was still dishonest and kept shaking its tail. The tail of the fish hit Blacksmith Luo's walking leg and made a snapping sound. A crisp snapping sound.
Wherever Blacksmith Luo walked, there were also water stains on the ground.
But Blacksmith Luo walked at a brisk pace just to deliver the freshest fish to Yang Ruoqing as quickly as possible.
"Qing'er, hurry up, get a big basin to put the fish in."
As soon as they arrived at the door of the kitchen, excited voices already entered the kitchen.
Yang Ruoqing poked her head out and saw the big fish that Blacksmith Luo brought back. Good guy, it’s so big!
A fish head can be as big as a medium-sized watermelon!
"The basin and water are ready!"
Yang Ruoqing responded, hurriedly getting out of the way and instructing Blacksmith Luo to put the big fish into the large wooden basin in the kitchen.
The big wooden basin was the same one that Yang Ruoqing had used to pick up chickens and ducks before. The dirty water in it was poured out, washed again, and replaced with clean water to keep the fish temporarily.
Blacksmith Luo put the big fish into the basin and felt relieved.
“This fish is so dishonest. In order to get it up, all the hair fell into the water!”
The Xiaomao that Blacksmith Luo mentioned was a young man from the same village whom he called to partner with him in building a fish pond. He had good water skills, strong strength, and worked hard.
The big boss of the fish pond must be Blacksmith Luo, and Xiao Mao is the second boss. In addition, there are two brothers.
This fish pond is neither big nor small. Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang bought it a long time ago and gave it to Blacksmith Luo.
Because I'm afraid that the old man will be bored when he has free time, and I don't want him to go to forge iron or take care of the crops, which will take too much effort.
So I bought a fish pond and gave it to the old man so that he could raise fish and shrimp for fun.
Facts have proved that this method is really effective. Blacksmith Luo spends most of his time on this fish pond, releasing fry into the pond in the spring. After a year of hard work in taking care of and feeding, he can usually meet the family's needs for fish and shrimp, and there is no need at all. We buy fish and shrimps from outside and eat them at any time, ensuring the freshness and quality.
When the fish ponds are drained at the end of the year, the fish and shrimps caught can be sold to the folks in Shiliba Village at a price close to the people, so that everyone can buy a few big fish to take home for the New Year. When entertaining relatives and friends during the first month of the year, you can also add an extra meat dish to complete the occasion.
"Is Xiaomao okay?" Yang Ruoqing poured another ladle of water on the fish so that it could live more comfortably within half an hour before being slaughtered.
Live comfortably, and the fish will taste better.
This is like those experienced butchers who, before slaughtering intelligent livestock such as pigs and cattle, will deliberately make them unaware and then kill them with a knife while they are not prepared.
"Xiao Mao is fine. He went home to change his wet clothes. I gave the other pair of crucian carp to Xiao Mao and asked him to make soup at noon to warm himself up." Blacksmith Luo said.
"Okay." Yang Ruoqing nodded with a smile. No need to guess, the pair of crucian carp must have been caught by Blacksmith Luo at home for entertaining guests at noon.
But Brother Xiao Mao, who was helping him, fell into the water. Tiejiang Luo felt sorry for him, so he made a temporary decision to give the crucian carp to Xiao Mao to prevent others from falling into the water in vain.
“Oh, by the way, uncle, when you came from my father’s house earlier, did you see anyone at home?”
"When I came here earlier, I didn't see any children playing in the yard, and the main room door was ajar. I didn't know that." Blacksmith Luo said.
"How about I come over and take a look again?"
Yang Ruoqing waved her hand: "No, the children are not playing in the yard. They must be not at home, or they have gone to the fourth room."
Last night Mrs. Sun said that she would go to the fourth house today to visit her new grandson, and to make up for the full moon gift.
Presumably it was Sun and the others who went to the fourth room, and the children were taken there with them.
Blacksmith Luo said: "Then I will go to the fourth room to meet your father and the others, and ask them to come over and have tea after they finish their work."
"Okay! I'm here, uncle."
In order to invite Yang Huazhong and others to come over for dinner, I went fishing early in the morning and didn't even take a break until I came back.
“Hey, you kid, you’re talking silly again. Dad and the others haven’t been back for a year. It’s only natural that we treat them to a meal!”
After Blacksmith Luo finished speaking, he added Fengfenghuohuo left the kitchen and went to the fourth room.
In the kitchen, Yang Ruoqing was not idle and continued to prepare the ingredients for noon.
Moreover, Blacksmith Luo walked on the front foot, and sisters Xiaohua and Xiaoduo came over together. Both sisters brought their own aprons.
"Sister, let's come here to help you...ah, sister, you are so nimble, have you sorted out the chickens and ducks now?"
Xiaoduo's crisp voice came into the kitchen. , and then he saw the chickens and ducks that had been chopped into pieces, and he was stunned.
Xiaohua also saw it and was stunned.
"Sister, why didn't you wait for us to come over and clean it up together?" Xiaohua also asked.
"You do so much work alone, so you have to stop for a while?" Xiaohua asked again.
Last night the three sisters agreed to pack these things together today. Unexpectedly, as the eldest sister, Yang Ruoqing would not be trustworthy and get them done in advance?
Yang Ruoqing was cutting dried red peppers with scissors. When she heard their words and saw the neatly cleaned chicken, duck and ribs, Yang Ruoqing also had a proud smile on her face.
“I have a surprise for you. How about it? You don’t need to kill chickens and ducks and pluck their feathers. Don’t you feel much more relaxed?”
Chicken, duck and goose meat is delicious, it tastes so good!
It is the process of preparing feathered poultry that is so frustrating.
Unlike in later generations, there is a special machine in the wet market. You only need to throw the chickens, ducks and geese in, and after a swishing sound, they will remove your hair in less than two minutes!
“Surprise, what a surprise!” Xiaoduo giggled, shaking out a blue floral apron and tying it loosely around her slender waist, with a pair of bright eyes in the kitchen Looking around.
“Sister, work has started, assign me some work!”
Yang Ruoqing nodded and said: "Okay!"
"Go and peel those two lettuces and two radishes."
