Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11093

Changping Village, Wanghai County.

In a blink of an eye, it is the second day of the Lunar New Year.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year this year, Yang Huazhong, Xiaoduo and others came to the Luo family to pay New Year's greetings.

Because it was the first day of the new year, Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoduo went back to the third room to pay New Year's greetings and have lunch, and then had dinner at Sun's house.

So on the second day of the New Year, Yang Huazhong's family, Xiaoduo and her husband and children all came to the Luo family.

As for the Sun family, they will not come on the second day of the Lunar New Year. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Huangmao and Dajie will take the brothers Dashunzi and Xiaoshunzi to visit Gapo's house to pay New Year's greetings.

So the Luo family was particularly lively today.

Before the New Year this year, Yang Ruoqing informed Xiaohua and Xiaoduo in advance that they would come to the Luo family to pay New Year's greetings in the first month of the lunar year, and the Luo family's meal would break the traditional standards.

Hot pot will appear on the Luo family’s dining table this year.

Last year, Yang Ruoqing reformed the Tianxianglou in the county into a hot pot restaurant. Facts have proved that even in very cold weather, the hot and spicy hot pot is still very popular in Wanghai County.

Because Wanghai County is quite a distance away from Changping Village, Yang Ruoqing couldn't invite everyone in her family to the hot pot restaurant in the county to taste the food.

  But it doesn’t matter, Yang Ruoqing can gather them together for a banquet during the first month of the year!

"Sister, I heard that there are several flavors of soup base? Let me take a look." Xiaoduo came to Luo's house and was very casual and not restrained at all. After all, this is her sister's house!

Yang Ruoqing was also casual and didn't treat her as a guest at all. She casually asked her to help me with things like "Duo'er".

Because we are sisters, that's the good thing about sisters, when they get together, eating and drinking is not the ultimate goal, the goal is to enjoy the reunion and the process of eating and drinking together.

"Here, these small jars are filled with hot pot bases. From left to right, they are spicy beef oil, spicy beef oil, and mushroom and bone soup."

"The two big pots next to them were brought back from the county town by Chen Biao before the Lunar New Year. They are two big mandarin duck pots."

Xiaoduo listened to Yang Ruoqing's introduction, looked at the hot pot items in front of her, opened the lids of the small jars one by one, and then bent down to sniff the aroma of the base ingredients...

"Sister, they smell so good. What should I do if I want to eat every kind?"

"Isn't that easy? I just told you, it's a hot pot."

"Great, two shabu-shabu pots, one for the men and one for the women. Three flavors, spicy and mushroom. Put them on the table for us, the women and the children, because the children can't eat spicy food."

"Put the spicy and mushroom dishes on the men's table. If I want spicy dishes, I'll go to the spicy table."

Xiaohua next to him asked with a smile: "Why don't you put the spicy ones at the men's table? Why don't you put the fragrant ones at our table?"

Xiao Duo said: "Is there any need to ask? We women really eat like crazy. The spicy food goes well with rice. The fragrant and spicy food is left for the men. They probably want to drink a few glasses of wine and chat!"

Indeed, today the entire Xiang family came to pay New Year’s greetings, including the cattle dealer and Shengnan’s father. The brothers are old drunkards.

Even though Blacksmith Luo couldn't drink, Yang Huazhong would definitely have a few drinks on days like this.

When the time comes, Blacksmith Luo will prepare some hot fruit wine for him to entertain the guests.

But the women really came for the food. Just as Xiaoduo said, it’s spicy and satisfying!

"Sister, where are the ingredients? I'll help you pick them up."

"Okay, I'll get it."

When Yang Ruoqing took out a basket of vegetables, and the prepared fish fillets, prawns, marinated tender pork tenderloin, marinated chicken breast slices, a pound of lamb slices, and various mushrooms, fungus, tofu skin, and vermicelli, Xiaoduo's eyes were dazzled. "Sister, this is so rich! Can we finish it in one meal?"

"Don't worry, I'm afraid it won't be enough when we eat while we're cooking!"

Xiao Duo said, "Don't worry, I brought you some fresh beef! We'll put it in the hot pot when the time comes!"

"it is good!"

"Sister, let me help you too. I'll leave Jun'er to our mother."

Xiaohua also shook off her apron and joined the team.

Yang Ruoqing led the team. Since Linglan and Shaoyao had never done this before, Yang Ruoqing had hotpot at home for the first time today. She cooked it herself and demonstrated it to everyone.

"There are a lot of prawns. We'll eat half of them, and we'll shell and chop the rest into shrimp paste for the children later."

"In addition to these spicy and salty ones, we will make some desserts to dilute the spicy taste. The children will like them too."

Yang Ruoqing looked exactly like a teacher in a cooking school today, demonstrating and explaining to several students behind her at the same time.

When lunch time arrived, two large mandarin duck pots were already placed on the two large revolving round tables next to the kitchen.

The soup in the double-flavored pot was boiling hot, emitting gurgling steam, and the spicy, numbing and fragrant aromas were intertwined in the dining hall.

Surrounding it were the shuangxiang hotpot, with large plates and small dishes filled with all kinds of hotpot ingredients, a combination of meat and vegetables, in a variety of colors. Some ingredients that were difficult to cook were put into the pot in advance.

An army of vegetables and mushrooms are always ready on the side.

In addition, Yang Ruoqing also brought several "students" to make cakes of several flavors.

For example, small golden pumpkin cakes, glutinous rice cakes wrapped in soybean powder and drizzled with red sugar syrup, snowflake crisps made with yam and red dates paste, three-point sweet mung bean cakes, honey glutinous rice wine dumplings with osmanthus...

Finally, each table was provided with a large plate of fruit, including cut apples and pears, as well as tangerines.

When you feel spicy, you can use these to relieve it at any time...

"It smells so good, so fragrant and rich, it's almost as good as the Chinese New Year..."

When Sun carried Jun'er into the dining hall, saw the dazzling array of dishes on the table and smelled the alluring aroma, she was so happy that she subconsciously uttered her catchphrase.

In farming families, generations after generations, they have been reluctant to spend money on food and clothing.

The poor days made them dare not eat, drink or dress casually, always fearing that they would go hungry at any time.

So we save up all the good things and use them as a treat during the Chinese New Year to make the whole family happy.

So when we encounter something delicious, we will habitually say: "It's so rich, it feels like Chinese New Year!"

At this moment, when Sun uttered this catchphrase, the cafeteria became quiet for a moment, and then friendly laughter broke out from all directions.

Fuwa smiled with curved eyebrows and clapped his hands and said loudly: "Grandma, what are you talking about? This is the Chinese New Year!"

  Sun was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and realized that this was indeed the Chinese New Year.

She smiled sheepishly and said, "Oh my, look at me, I'm so confused during the Chinese New Year!"
