Chapter 780

A few people were talking and laughing there.

I saw that the family of three chefs had already begun to divide and cooperate.

The chef and his son are busy around the stove over there,

After the chef's wife washed the cauldron, she directly brought the water pipe over and put a pot of water in it.

The cook's wife said, "Girls, turn up the heat. I'm going to use hot water."

"Okay."

Zhu Yan agreed to add a few pieces of firewood to it.

Zhao Jiangsheng and Xu Feng went to bring some more firewood and pushed it in front of the stove door.

Xu Feng: "Sister Zhu Zhu, there is enough firewood. I will supply it."

Then the two of them sat on the firewood without taking a stool, chatting with Zhu Yan Guo Qiqi.

The cook's son brought coal balls and put them in the stove to burn. When they burned, they put them in the stove.

Both stoves were lit up, and two large soup pots were placed on them.

Guo Qiqi: "What are you going to do over there?"

Zhu Yan: "Stew the soup. Slowly cook the soup."

Xu Feng: "I'll go investigate."

After a while, I ran back: "Sister Zhu Zhu is right, it is stew. There is a pot of chicken soup, and there is a pot of mutton soup."

Guo Qiqi: "I believe what Zhu Zhu said, and you went to see it, really..."

Xu Feng: "Running makes it look like I have something to do."

The water in the cauldron here is hot.

The chef's wife scooped hot water in a large wooden basin to wash the pig's head, pig's ears, pig's tongue, Xinli, and chicken feet, etc.

A pot of water will soon run out.

The chef's wife shouted, "Put the water on for me."

Xu Feng: "I'll come. Brother Zhao, go and turn on the faucet for me."

Xu Feng jumped up and pointed the water pipe into the pot, "Sister Zhu Zhu, Sister Qiqi, see if I look like a chef. Such a big pot...haha"

Zhu Yan: "Put on a chef's hat and an apron to hold a shovel, and it will look more like it."

Guo Qiqi: "I have never seen such a big pot, and now the wooden basin is bigger than the pot."

Zhao Jiangsheng: "This is nothing, there are bigger ones, they can be used as boats to cross the river."

Zhu Yan: "Brother Zhao, the one you are talking about is the seedling pot, right? During the seedling season, the pots are filled with seedlings and pushed around in the fields. I used to sit on it when I was young."

Guo Qiqi: "Ah, have you ever sat on it? I thought only my mother-in-law has ever sat on a wooden basin with Yue Fei in her arms?"

Zhao Jiangsheng: "Where there are paddy fields in the countryside, there are almost such wooden basins. Not to mention children, adults have also sat in it."

Zhu Yan: "When I was young, I played with my cousins ​​on the ridges of the fields and watched the adults transplant rice seedlings.

Uncle put me and my cousins ​​in a wooden basin, pushed them around in the paddy field, and said it was rowing... Haha...

I was so timid, I held the edge of the basin tightly with both hands, not daring to let go at all, and my mouth was tightly pursed, terrified.

Uncle and the others laughed.

Later, my grandma found out, and came to take me away, and even scolded my uncle and the others. "

Guo Qiqi: "Haha, my niece's uncle was scolded. I will definitely not dare in the future. But it's very interesting."

Zhu Yan: "Actually, I was too young at the time, so I didn't have much impression of these things.

It was all told to me later by my grandmother.

Grandma said that I was very timid at that time, and my face turned pale in that seedling pot.

That's why she scolded her uncle and the others.It's because I'm afraid to scare me.

Grandma also said that I took pictures in a basin when I was a child.

At that time, the masters who took pictures also traveled from village to household.

One day a photographer came to the village.

Grandma said to take a picture of me.

The master who took the picture asked my grandma to hold me and take a picture of me.

Then grandma said she wanted to take pictures of me alone.

At that time, I was really too young to sit still.

So put me in the basin.

I played alone in the pot and took a picture.

Later, I took a picture with my cousin, and I was still sitting in the basin...hehe..."

Guo Qiqi: "Haha, let me think about it...Little Zhu Zhu sitting in the basin must be very cute."

Xu Feng: "It must be cute, right, Brother Zhao?"

Zhao Jiangsheng looked at Zhu Yan's side face flushed by the flames, and nodded vigorously.

Xu Feng: "Unexpectedly, there are so many stories about pots."

Zhu Yan: "Yes. Wooden basins are very useful in the countryside. Every household has many wooden basins, for washing clothes and bathing, and for washing sweet potatoes. My uncle's family uses large wooden basins to wash sweet potatoes. The family feeds several pigs. Every I have to cook a lot of pig food a day..."

Zhao Jiangsheng: "Sweet potatoes are good stuff. Wait..."

I don't know what he wants to do?After speaking, he ran into the kitchen in a hurry.

After a while, I saw him holding

A clay basin came out, and there were several sweet potatoes in the basin.

"I carefully selected this one. It's the same size, and it's full of candy hearts. It will be baked and eaten later."

Zhu Yan: "Okay. Leave it to me, we did this a lot when we were young."

Zhao Jiangsheng: "Let me do it. Be careful not to burn it."

"Ok."

Zhu Yan and Guo Qiqi stepped aside.

Zhao Jiangsheng carefully scraped open the firewood in the stove, and used a small shovel to shovel the firewood ash in the stove into the earthen pot, and then spread a thick layer of firewood ash in it.Zhu Yan put a few sweet potatoes on top of the ashes.Zhao Jiangsheng shoveled firewood ash and covered the sweet potatoes until the earthen pot was covered.

Guo Qiqi: "Why don't you just throw the sweet potatoes into the stove?"

Zhao Jiangsheng: "Look at you, you are just a charming lady who stretches out your clothes, stretches out your hands, and opens your mouth. You speak yellow accents, laughing to death..."

Guo Qiqi: "I'm not ashamed to ask."

Zhu Yan: "The fire in the stove is too big, it will be burnt in a while, and the sweet potatoes will turn into charcoal.

In this way, the sweet potatoes cooked with the residual heat of firewood ash are the most delicious. "

"Okay, listen to you, you have experience."

Guo Qiqi is a follower of kindness.She is [-] rest assured about Zhu Zhu.

She likes to yell at people, including Zhao Jiangsheng, but she can't yell at Zhu Yan at anyone.

Zhu Yan: "Besides, this crock pot can also be used as a stove to warm the fire."

Zhao Jiangsheng: "That's right. Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang are sitting in the living room and peeling peanuts. It's very cold. It's warmer with a pot of fire. I'll bring them over."

"Be careful. Don't burn your hands."

"It's okay, I found gloves."

Zhu Yan: "When you come back, bring some peanuts and we'll peel them for you."

"Okay."

Zhao Jiangsheng left with the brazier in hand.

Zhu Yan said to Guo Qiqi: "We took this good place to warm up. Fortunately, the winter here is not too cold. It was really cold when I went to Inner Mongolia."

Guo Qiqi knew that Zhu Yan was afraid of the cold.

But it's better now.

Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to sit outside like this.

After a while, Zhao Jiangsheng came out with a snakeskin bag and a basin.

Xu Feng took the bag and weighed it: "Is this bag full of peanuts? Do you need to peel a lot of peanuts?"

Zhao Jiangsheng: "Do the math, one plate of peanuts per table, how much does it cost for 30 tables?"

"Wow, is it a lot?"

Zhao Jiangsheng: "What you are preparing now is the amount for one day tomorrow, and it will take three days to eat. How much peanuts do you think you want?"

"Why do you have to eat for three days?"

"One party, one vulgar. This is how it is here. There are three days of banquets when you get married. On the first day, you call the gift wine, on the second day, you call the wedding wine. On the third day, you go back to the door."
