Chapter 225 Afraid of scandal

Everyone started early in the morning, so they went home quite early, before noon.

Because I had a lot of things to do, I cooked dumplings at noon, and each person had a big bowl of hot dumplings. Xiao Yunfan felt that life here was so good that he didn't want to leave, but he only had a few days of vacation this time.

"Xiao Yunfan, how much did you spend on the rabbit today?" Xia Chan asked. She wanted the rabbit, so she had to pay for it.

"No, just think of it as the rent I pay!" How can Xiao Yunfan ask for her money? If she is willing, he can give her everything he has.

"How can that be done? You have already bought so much meat before. Do you live in our house or do we get the benefit? How can we ask for your things again?" Although I still don't know how many rabbits Xiao Yunfan bought for me, but Two or three yuan for a rabbit is more than enough for rent, so how can you ask for so much meat?

"Then when we exchange things in the future, you can just send me more things." Xiao Yunfan said, "I like to eat mountain products very much."

Xia Chan nodded, "Okay, then I will send you more mountain goods in the future."

After the meal, the brothers started to pack up the pheasants and hares, and Xia Chan also started to prepare stewed lamb ribs and sliced ​​mutton. Xiao Tiantian and Yuan Bingbing were coming to eat in the evening. Xiao Yunfan came over to take charge of slicing the mutton, and Xia Chan went to prepare it. Other ingredients.

She washed the onions, ginger, garlic, red pepper, white radish and cabbage, cut them and put them on a plate for later use. She also soaked some dried vegetables and dried mushrooms, and then started to stew the lamb ribs. The lamb ribs could not be cooked in a short time, so they had to be prepared in advance. stew.

After setting up a large firewood, there was no need to worry about it. Xia Chan brought back a prepared pheasant from her brother, chopped it into pieces, blanched it on the stove, and then stewed it directly in the iron pot. stand up.

The brothers marinate the cleaned pheasants and rabbits with various seasonings, and then put them in the pickle jar. After the marinade is flavored, they can be taken out to smoke the cured meat.

Xia Chan had nothing to do for the time being, because she had finished all her preparations. She went to Xiao Yunfan's place to watch him cut the mutton slices. When Xiao Yunfan had finished cutting all the mutton slices, Xia Chan brought the oil paper bag over and put the mutton slices in. Divide it into packages, leaving only one pot to eat at night, and put the rest outside to freeze. When you want to eat, just take two packages back.

Later, everyone was busy with their work. Xia Chan changed the fire at the bottom of the two pots to a low fire and simmered. After that, everyone got on the kang and sat at the kang table to rest. Xia Chan brought a bowl of persimmon cakes and sugar-frosted hawthorns. , put it on the Kang table for everyone to eat.

After that, he washed five more apples and brought them over, one for each person. Xia Chan held the apples in one hand and gnawed them slowly, while holding an old newspaper in the other and looking at it carefully.

After taking the first bite of the apple, I couldn't help but frown. The apple at this time was very small and the flesh was very hard. When I took a bite, it made a loud snapping sound. It also had very little water content and was too sour and too sweet. taste.

Xia Chan originally thought that this kind of purely natural and pollution-free fruit would be delicious. It seems that the taste of this unimproved fruit is indeed not as good as that of the improved ones in later generations, but this kind of fruit is also a good thing that many people cannot eat.

Xia Chan turned her head and looked at her brothers and Xiao Yunfan. Seeing that no one noticed her, she quietly placed the apple on the corner of the table, planning to find an opportunity to collect it and make it into cans when she was free. It would be delicious. Some.

But when she thought of the apple, she could no longer find it, and there was not a single apple in the bowl, which meant that they did have one apple each, and no one took her apple by mistake, but she couldn't find her apple. Arrived, it was really weird.

Xia Chan looked everywhere, even looking down at the ground, but found nothing.

Xiao Yunfan looked at Xia Chan quietly. He didn't expect that she would have such a cute side, especially her confused look, which was really cute.

Xia Chan searched for a while and confirmed that she couldn't find it, so she stopped looking. She got off the kang and put on her shoes. Then she went to put the side dishes. She put the radish cubes into the lamb rib pot, the mushrooms and potato cubes into the pheasant pot, and two iron Fill the pot fully, then cover the pot and simmer over low heat. When Xia Chan put the big pumpkin on the table, Xiao Yunfan came over and asked, "What should I do with this pumpkin?"

"Peel and cut in half, then cut into crescent shapes." Peeling an old pumpkin is not an easy task. Now that someone is helping her, Xia Chan is of course happy.

After Xiao Yunfan finished peeling the pumpkin, he took out the pumpkin seeds and cut them into crescent shapes of about the same size under Xia Chan's guidance. Xia Chan cooked the brown rice, placed the steamer on the pot of brown rice, and cut the chopped Put the bacon and rabbit into the steamer, then put the pumpkin into the steamer, then put the lid on the pot, pulled a piece of firewood from the stove next to it, put the firewood on, and started cooking.

Xia Chan took another large bowl, cracked a few eggs into it, added water, stirred into egg liquid, sprinkled the chopped leek segments into it, put it on the stove, and when the rice was almost ready, just put it in the steamer. .

In the evening, there was a knock on the door. It was Xiao Tiantian and Yuan Bingbing coming over.

Xiao Yunfan, who was sitting behind the stove to light the fire for Xia Chan, stood up as soon as he heard the knock on the door, patted the debris on his body, and said, "Then I will go back to the front room first."


Xia Chan really didn't expect that Xiao Yunfan was afraid of being rumored like this, so she couldn't help laughing out loud. Seeing Xiao Yunfan looking at her sadly, Xia Chan hurriedly covered her mouth, and then said with a smile, "Then you go there first Come on! I’ll send you some food later.”

"Then I'll trouble you." Xiao Yunfan said and left in a hurry.

Xia Chan then went over to open the door, led Xiao Tiantian and Yuan Bingbing into the house, and poured them hot brown sugar ginger tea, "Tiantian, Sister Bingbing, drink first, and dinner will be served soon."


In the evening, there were lamb ribs stewed with radish, potatoes stewed with pheasant, steamed bacon, steamed rabbit, egg custard, and boiled mutton slices. In addition, Xia Chan also fried water spinach and amaranth, all of which were grown and accumulated at home.

Xia Chan took out some of each dish, warmed it in the pot, and then let everyone eat.

Yuan Bingbing frowned, with a grimace on her face, sighed, and said, "When will they come back from winter hunting?"

Zhou Ji's absence is really boring, and I don't know if Zhou Ji has forgotten her existence long ago after not seeing her for a while.

"Usually it takes about twenty days, and I will definitely come back before the 25th of the twelfth lunar month. After all, everyone needs meat to celebrate the New Year!" Seeing Yuan Bingbing like this, Xia Chan knew that she missed Zhou Ji.

Love...

Tsk tsk tsk tsk!

Fortunately, she doesn't have to suffer from love.

"Ah? Will it take that long? Then I don't know if they will be here when they come back!" Yuan Bingbing pouted and said unhappily.
