Chapter 644 Prelude
Le Yun laughed when she saw Zhang Jing running away. If it weren't for the fact that it was not the time to stimulate Zhang Jing's mother's backing, she really wouldn't mind exposing Zhang Jing's unmarried pregnancy on the Internet so that Zhang Jing's mother would be in the limelight.
But it doesn't matter, this time she generously gave Zhang bitch a pill. If someone doesn't take care of himself, his life will be more colorful in the future.
Seeing the annoying woman go away, Chao Yufu pounced on Xiaofenduanzi, hugging the cute little cutie and licking her oil: "Xiaotuanzi, why are you so kind to massage that guy?" Hmm, even she did. Didn't you enjoy Xiaotuanzi's several massage privileges?
"Second sister, your foot was a little heavy just now. If she takes the opportunity to blackmail us, we will be in trouble."
Chao Yubo reached out and lifted up the second sister's collar. The second sister was good at everything, even she loved to play Lele, and she was not afraid of giving little Lele a heatstroke even on hot days.
"I only used one-fifth of my strength, it's not that heavy." Being held up by the collar, Chao Yufu had no choice but to give up the little pink dumplings to save himself, lest he be thrown away by his beautiful brother.
"That guy is a bit weak. Sister Fu's amazing kick is really enough for her to drink a pot."
After being rescued from Sister Fu's bear hug, Le Yun hurriedly hid beside her beautiful young brother, determined not to stay with the pervert Sister Fu.
"How's it going? Are there any internal injuries?" Chao Yubo touched Xiaotuanzi's head and protected her by his side to avoid being harmed by his second sister.
"A little bit, so I massaged her for a while to delay the onset of internal injuries. So, sister Fu, next time you see that bitch again, you can quarrel with her and don't show off your fists."
"I have always felt that there is no need to argue if things can be solved with fists. It is a waste of water to argue."
"Go, second sister, don't cause trouble for Xiao Lele. She always wants to do something. I won't let you come next time."
"Okay, I won't do it if you don't do it. I'm just saying it. This time I was so angry that I was inevitably impulsive. There won't be enough reasons not to be impulsive next time." Chao Yufu rubbed his fists. She hadn't done anything yet. What she was moving was foot.
"Second sister, we went to pick vegetables, don't delay Lele's time." The beautiful boy took his second sister away and let little Lele go about her work.
Chao Yufu wailed in protest, and was dragged away by the beautiful brother half-heartedly, into the garden to pick vegetables.
The handsome brother and sister Fu were busy. Le Yun originally wanted to go back and wash the household items, but then she changed her mind and went to pick lotus leaves immediately.
It's still early, so pick the lotus leaves first while the sun is not bright. When the handsome guys come back later, let those who are free help clean the lotus leaves. Otherwise, those handsome guys may be too busy and they may cause trouble.
When Zai Le set out to pick lotus leaves, it was almost the same time that Village Chief Zhou met Zhang Jing.
The branch roads in the village can accommodate electric tricycles and are not too wide. Village Chief Zhou and Zhang Jing walked one way and the other, causing them to face each other in a misaligned manner.
Zhang Jing was afraid that she would accidentally spill the beans and say something that couldn't be said when Village Chief Zhou asked him something, so she tried her best to pretend to be calm, and while taking care of her broken sun umbrella, she lowered her head and walked quickly.
When he missed the meeting with Village Chief Zhou, Village Chief Zhou didn't ask anything. His tense heart relaxed, but he also broke out in a sweat and couldn't help but wipe his forehead.
Wiping away the sweat, she felt the sun was very scorching, and quickly ran to a place where she could find shade. She walked and stood still. Why did she go to the village committee?
She went to the village committee canteen just to find out if the handsome guys she met yesterday were guests of the Le family. Now there was no need to go and ask for gossip. Even Chao Yubo was here, and it was not surprising that there were others.
Zhang Jing stood still and looked embarrassed. Chao Yubo actually remembered the old things from a few years ago. Just because she and Huang Yali had bullied Le Yun, she didn't give any face to tell the old things.
Thinking of the way Chao Yubo looked at her and the tone of his words, his chest began to beat rapidly. If she had known that Le Yun recognized Chao Yubo, how could she have framed Le Yun for stealing money? Besides, she also apologized later. Why did Chao Yubo still think that Le Yun had been wronged? ?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She angrily turned around and went straight to another side road to go home. Chao Yubo was at Leyun's house. She could not go to Leyun's house alone, otherwise she would definitely be bullied by Chao Yubo and Leyun again. She could only go to her mother and father tomorrow. Go together.
After walking for a while, she went to the garbage pond, threw away the broken parasol, and walked half a circle under the sun before returning home. She was also sweating. When she saw her mother watching TV at home, Zhang Jing did not forget what she had just experienced. Tell your mother, go take a shower and change clothes.
After Village Chief Zhou missed Zhang Jing, he walked slowly towards Lele's house with his hands behind his back. Seeing little Lele jumping happily from a distance, he continued walking with a smile.
The little boy who was originally walking on the other side of the road ran to the side where he was walking, rushed towards him like a joy, and called out sweetly: "Grandpa Zhou Man, where are you going? Come to my house for dinner at noon. I'm good at cooking." Dish.”
"I'm just about to go to your house. What's delicious food for lunch, Xiao Lele? Where are you going? Are you going to ask me to eat specifically?"
Village Chief Zhou is getting more and more happy. Look, Xiao Lele will run over when she sees him, but Zhang Jing will hide when she sees him. This is the difference between human nature and having a tutor or not. Zhang Jing is rude without a tutor.
"The delicious food must be kept secret first, Grandpa Zhou Man. I am about to pick lotus leaves and want to go find you and tell you."
"Hurry up and pick as much as you want. The sun will get brighter later and it will be easy to get dazzled by the sun." Why not just pick lotus leaves? People in the village don't even want to dig up lotus roots, let alone lotus leaves.
"Hey!" Le Yun agreed, instead of going to Village Chief Zhou's house, she went straight to the lotus planting place.
Village Chief Zhou wandered to Le's house, but when he didn't see Yue Qing, he knew that he had gone to Cheng's house to kill pigs. He went to the back of the house to help clean supplies without being invited by the owner.
No one in Meizijing specializes in growing lotus roots, and a public fish pond in the village was idle, so the village committee planted some lotus roots in the pond. Actually, it was not to eat the lotus roots, but to beautify the environment, because there was nothing there in summer. No, it looks too deserted.
The lotus roots have been planted for almost five years and have never been dug out. They almost cover the pond. There are few flowers and the lotus leaves are green.
No one in the village wanted lotus leaves. At most, some children picked them to play with on their heads. There were plenty of lotus leaves.
After finding the edge of the fish pond, Le Yun first picked leaves along the edge. After picking for a while, she took off her shoes and went into the shallow water to pick. She also picked two lotus flowers and collected enough lotus leaves to carry home.
She had just returned home and ran to see the handsome guys who were killing the pigs, and they were also returning to Lejia with a ding-dong-dong sound.
Brothers Xiao Shaoluo, Shao Wanqi and others watched the whole process of killing the pig, and even helped fetch water to scald the pig's hair. They didn't leave until they saw a group of people disemboweling the pig and weighing it.
Yan Shao, Liu Shao and Xiao Ba also returned to Lejia together, and their help was not needed there for the time being.
When the handsome guys returned to Lejia, they watched the little Loli pick a bunch of lotus leaves, guessing that she would make delicious ones. They became so happy that they immediately packed up and picked up tools to grind tofu.
The little loli soaked two large buckets of beans, and the handsome guys moved the belongings to the stone mill, put on the mill push frame, and ran to try their hands one by one.
Most people in the north use mills to grind flour. The mills are placed horizontally and weigh a thousand kilograms. The load-bearing platform is like a large disc. The things to be ground are placed on the load-bearing platform and the roller is pushed around.
The stone mills in the South are made of two upper and lower millstones, which are stacked up, with a hole in the middle to put things in. The millstones in the South are lighter, with one millstone weighing four to five hundred kilograms.
Four to five hundred kilograms is still quite heavy. Even He Xiaoliu and Wang Erxiao's boxing and kicking skills felt quite strenuous. Young Master Xiao was very strong and it was easy. Young Master Luo and Young Master Wanqi didn't feel much pressure either. Yan Not to mention Shao Liu, Shao He and Xiao Ba, the handsome guy, he is very powerful.
Out of concern for the two handsome boys, He Xiaoliu and Wang Ershao were asked to work first. The two handsome boys took turns pushing the schedule. Within ten minutes, they were squealing and running away while drawing circles, and then ran to help the little Lolita. Wash lotus leaves, wash buckets, basins, etc.
Professor Wanqi, his wife, Mrs. Chao Er, and Mrs. Chao took in the fresh air in the morning, took a walk, and helped little Lele clean her newly purchased things.
Someone helped with the work, and naturally the tools were cleaned quickly. Leyun turned on the stove again, boiled water in a large pot, and boiled the newly purchased stainless steel supplies. She boiled them first with vinegar, then with the prepared potion, and finally washed them with clean water. Then you're done. Chao Erye and the others were not idle either. They helped clean the borrowed dishes and chopsticks. They also disinfected them with boiling water, put them in a basket to drain, and then carried them to a clean place and wrapped them with a tarpaulin to avoid dust.
As for mosquitoes, there is no need to worry. Xiao Lele planted mosquito-absorbing grass behind the house and spread mosquito repellent or insect repellent. Mosquitoes are rarely seen in the front and back of the Lejia house.
After finishing her work, Le Yun cleaned and cut the tips of the thawed chicken feet again, boiled them in a pot, drained them, poured out part of the brine and put them in for another use, poured the chicken feet into the brine pot to brine, and then made seafood dishes. There will be a lot of things to do tomorrow, so some dishes need to be prepared first, put them in the refrigerator, and then heat them in the steamer at noon tomorrow.
Brother Zhou and Cheng Youde were also busy. They divided the whole pig with its internal organs into four halves and weighed them before processing the pig's feet, ears, head, and pig waste. They also divided the pork into parts according to different dishes, such as ribs and pork belly. Separate the fine meat separately, and then chop some of the fine meat out to make meatballs. The pork belly is also cut into large chunks, which will be braised and oiled before making pork belly tomorrow.
Some of the pork that was processed first was put in the freezer, and some was left to be marinated. Zhang Poluo and others used some of their hands to continue processing pig ears and trotters, and some of them caught chickens and ducks and slaughtered them.
Most of the chickens and ducks were bought from Sister-in-law Liu's house. I also bought a few from Cheng Youliang's house and Liu Lu's house. They counted them first and then settled the bill when they were done.
Men and women who were willing to help slaughter the chickens and ducks, plucked the feathers, dissected and washed the chickens, and sent the cleaned chickens back to Lejia first.
Classmate Le put the whole chicken into the medicinal soup and soaked it, then filled the belly of the chicken with medicinal materials, wrapped it in lotus leaves and steamed it in a steamer. In addition, he wrapped a few chickens in mud and stuffed them into the charcoal belly of the stove used for steaming rice to grill.
Zhang Poluo, Liu Lu and others not only dealt with the freshly killed pig's trotters, ears and pig waste, but also brought them back from the street this morning, all of which were referred to Cheng Youde's house for processing.
Lejia has many things to do and tools, and it can be very crowded when handling pig's feet and other things in Lejia. Cheng Youde's family slaughtered pigs and burned fire and water, which was convenient.
It took Mr. Xiao more than two hours to grind the two buckets of beans. Everyone was sweating from exhaustion. The handsome guys covered the soy milk with gauze, then washed the grinder and some tools, and then went to help the little Lolita run errands when they had time. work.
Everyone is busy, but Zhou Qiufeng is the most idle. She sleeps with her son, feeds her and changes her diapers when he wakes up, and she doesn't have to do anything else.
The old and young people were busy for a long time, and they finished some things at eleven o'clock. They rested first and had lunch at half past eleven.
The dinner at Lejia was reserved for the Lejia girls, and it was an eye-opener for young and old men once again. The lunch dishes included beggar chicken, hairy blood, seafood, braised chicken feet, stir-fried fat intestine and pig heart, served with vegetables, and a complete range of meat and vegetables.
The beggar chicken was released from the mud seal, and the aroma floated out of the house and in all directions, making the villagers salivate after smelling the aroma.
The Zhou family hadn't eaten yet. Zhou Chunmei smelled the fragrance and ran out to look at the Le family. Her eyes were red with jealousy. The Le family was making delicious food again!
But, it’s not her fault!
At about ten o'clock, her father came back to take her grandma to Lejia, but did not ask her and her mother to go there. She knew that her father was still angry about her calling Yueqing Le cripple that day, and did not want her and her mother to go to Lejia. Home.
What her father and grandma said was that Leyun’s teacher and mistress and many young people from the capital came to Le’s house as guests. Those young people were all family members of high-ranking officials. They were all friends of Leyun. Listen to that. It's just that all Leyun's acquaintances now are rich and powerful people.
The two families were close to each other. When she was upstairs or secretly watching at the door, she would often see young people walking around the Le family. She could also hear all kinds of laughter and cheers, but she did not dare to go and visit. Her father was at the Le family, and she If you dare to run away, you will not get good results.
Zhou Chunmei felt resentful when she thought that Le's family had delicious food but they didn't even bring it over. She turned around with her head down and thought about how uncomfortable she felt, so she closed the door angrily.
The Le family is very happy. Whether it is Professor Wanqi, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Chao and other old people, or handsome young people, Zhang Poluo and others are all drunk under the pomegranate skirt of the "Beggars Chicken", they only care about eating, there is no fantasy. other.
Liu Lu and others had tasted the cooking skills of girls from Lejia. It was the first time for Chen Dalian and Sister-in-law He to have dinner at Lejia. It was also the first time to taste Leyun’s cooking skills. The couple were so surprised. No wonder Zhang Po Luo and Liu Lu had been looking forward to lunch since the morning. It turned out that they had guessed that the Le family girl was going to make a specialty dish.
Village Chief Zhou’s face was red after eating, Xiao Lele’s specialty dish was really delicious!
Xiao Junyi was eating the fragrant beggar's chicken, and he was about to fly. He thought that the roast chicken made by little Loli with dough was already delicious. It turned out that he had little knowledge and could not make any real delicious food in a place like the capital. , only in the countryside can you taste the most original delicious meal.
The beggar chicken is so beautiful, and you can imagine how delicious the roasted rabbit must be.
lose weight!
You must work harder to lose weight!
Even if you have successfully lost weight now, you are still far from your ideal body shape. In order to be rewarded, you must lose weight to a perfect body shape.
Young Master Xiao looked at the boys and felt extremely sympathetic to Young Master Li. That foodie was a bad guy. He had to train so he didn't have time to go to Little Lolita's house to get some food. He also missed such a delicious meal.
As Yan Xing and the others ate the beggar's chicken, they felt more and more...reluctant. The little Lolita was a treasure. It was heartbreaking to think of who would take the beauty home in the future.
A group of people showered their compliments on the Le family girl and Le's father who made the delicious food as if they were free of charge. Le's father kept laughing silly and couldn't hide his pride no matter how hard he tried.
Le Yun was shameless enough, and even though there were so many compliments, she accepted them all. After the meal, she asked the handsome guys to clean up. She didn't have time to sit and chat, so she specially asked handsome guy Yan, who was the strongest, to help him make soy milk. Make tofu and tofu.
Modern machine-grinding tofu does not have much bean dregs, while the soy milk ground by hand has a lot of bean dregs. Before making tofu, dilute the soy milk and then filter it with a cloth to leave the bean dregs in the cloth. The filtered soy milk juice is the raw material for making tofu.
Yan Xing has eaten tofu before, but has never seen the process of making tofu with his own eyes. This time he finally experienced it firsthand. The little Loli filtered the bean juice through a cloth several times. He was responsible for tightening the cloth to squeeze the bean dregs and squeeze out all the soy milk juice. , and in the end there was just a ball of bean dregs.
Repeat three times in total and squeeze out three bean dregs balls.
The filtered bean juice still needs to be boiled, and finally gypsum is added to form tofu curd. When it becomes tofu curd, tofu or tofu curd can be made.
Classmate Le Xiao made two boxes of tofu and put the rest into two small stainless steel buckets to make bean curd. She put it in cold water to cool down and let Yan Yan and the handsome guys who came around to rest. She went into the kitchen to prepare a drink of bean curd. Ingredients for soup.
After Mr. Xiao and several handsome guys washed the dishes, they ran to watch the little Loli making tofu. When she finished, they went to the Lejia main room to sit in a row, waiting to eat tofu.
After waiting for a long time, the little Loli prepared the condiments and took out the ice water from the freezer to cool down the tofu puffs. After the bucket of tofu puffs had cooled down, she prepared the ingredients and prepared a bowl of fragrant tofu puffs for each person.
The bean curd is cool, with special seasonings added, it is fragrant and tender, and it is refreshing and refreshing to eat.
A group of distant guests from the capital: "..." Can they live without their home forever?
Don’t ask for anything else, just one or two dishes for each meal, an occasional dessert or jelly in hot weather, and something heart-warming in winter, just like this!
Zhang Poluo, Liu Chengyoude and others were jealous of Yueqing Zhou Qiufeng while they were eating. The couple had a good girl. They had good meals and delicious summer cooling products every day, which was more refreshing than the gods.
After resting for a while, after the hottest period at noon, Zhang Poluo and others were busy again, chopping duck meat, chopping pig's trotters, cutting pig liver and lungs, etc., then boiling and stewing, making meatballs and steaming, braised pig Ears, pork belly, etc.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Lu drove to help retrieve the fish, kill it, pickle it, drain it, and then fry the fish in a pot.
Whether it's steamed, boiled, stewed or fried, let it cool and then pack it all up and put it in the refrigerator. In order to dissipate the heat of the dishes in the pot, carry a few fans and put them behind the house to professionally cool down.
Zhang Poluo and others are busy making dishes for tomorrow's banquet. Mrs. Chao and Mrs. Wang are waiting in the main room to help make dumplings. The handsome guys are running errands and cooking corn on the cob to eat.
The people who helped out at Lejia were busy for a long time in the afternoon. Likewise, the aroma also lingered for a long time. The whole village could smell it and it was mouth-watering.
Entrusted by others to be loyal, Zhang Poluo, Liu Lu, Chen Dalian and others endured the whole afternoon of cooking with oil and fire. By the time the sun went down, they had finished processing all the dishes and filled two freezers with things. If there is a smell of cooking fumes, we should go home first to take a shower and change clothes, and then have dinner at Lejia.
