Chapter 122 Nine Dou Bowl

Chapter 120 Three Nine Dou Bowls
Li Junge gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother Liu is really an expert in food! Our Lijiagou's dishes have their own characteristics, mainly river fresh and mountain delicacies."

"My big cousin also runs a restaurant in Jiachuan County, which specializes in various Lijiagou dishes, all of which are from the countryside."

"My farmhouse has also opened. I don't dare to boast about the taste, but the ingredients are absolutely authentic. I will ask Brother Liu to comment on it."

Yan Fang said: "Yes, farmhouse music mainly relies on authentic ingredients to win. This Hongshui River is the only river basin in China that is not polluted by water. There are countless wineries by the river. Your ingredients must be authentic ingredients. "

Li Junge said: "You guys came at the right time this time. Tomorrow, the Jiudouwan Baba Banquet will be held in the village, which can be regarded as a special feature of our place. I'm sure I'll be busy tonight, so I just need to trouble you, girl, to keep you company. Stay at the farmhouse at night."

"Now is the time when the mushrooms are going down the mountain. The children search the mountains every day to sell them to me, and they have saved a lot of goods. When the time comes, I will let Yulian's sister-in-law make a table for you. The traditional 'Shigu Banquet' here, her craftsmanship It's also good."

Several people are senior foodies, applauding in unison.

After chatting, he went to Mr. Si's side. Mr. Si was accompanied by Si Xingzhun, and he was not lonely when he introduced Wuxihe to him. Hearing that his grandson had made a lot of progress here, Mr. Si was also secretly delighted. Nod your head.

Let all the relatives of the Li family go down at the small pier first. These people have immediate relatives in the village, and they will stay at their relatives' house tonight, so they don't need to go to the farmhouse to bother.

After that, Wuxi No. [-] continued to move forward and stopped on the river beach below Jiuchangju.

Ai Yulian took Li Yunqiu to guard the long-term residence, and Li Dongsheng and Liu Sanwa all went to the ancestral hall to help.

Seeing a group of people coming, the two came out to greet them.

Let everyone choose the room by themselves. Li Junge drove the pickup truck and took Mr. Si, Si Xingzhun, Alice and Shirly to the ancestral hall.

The guards and health care doctors wanted to follow, but were stopped by Mr. Si, and said, "I'm going to see my old superior, what's the matter with you following? Stay with me, don't worry about lunch, there are Piwa Now, don’t starve me!”

When I came to the ancestral hall, there was a big change.The stone gatehouse is red and colorful, and there are many canvas sheds outside. Under each shed is a round table, but the color is a little different, some are painted, some are logs, some are new and some are old, which looks gaudy.

Liu Sangao was yelling at the conductors, and he hurried forward to say hello when he saw a group of people coming.

Li Junge saw that Mr. Si and the two girls were both anxious and excited, and wanted to ease the atmosphere first, so instead of entering the ancestral hall, he took Liu Sangao to smoke a cigarette, and said, "Uncle Liu, look at the gaudy tabletop. It's not neat, it's going to be on the news, and there are a lot of important people coming, so I have to make some arrangements!"

Liu Sangao said: "Oh, it's really true. I think the folks in this village don't care about this. It's okay. I'll let my disciples spread the tablecloths. It's red, festive and neat."

Li Junge said: "Okay, the effect must be good!" After speaking, he led the four of them into the ancestral hall.

There are Zipai poems on the screen wall at the entrance. Li Junge pointed to the word "雨" on it and said to Alice and Shirly: "Look, your Zipai is here."

Then he pointed upwards and said: "Mine is here, a generation older than you, and the same generation as your father Li Junlou, and above that is the word 'Si', your grandfather's name is Li Siyuan, and above that is The word 'liang', your ancestor's name is Li Liangchu, and the names of this family are all arranged in this way."

The two international friends felt very novel, and they yelled "goose girl Ziying" and "pea curd".

A group of children are not in the mood for class today, and the school is about to start, and the homework has already been done, so the fourth grandfather just chatted with them there, talking about allusions.

Hearing movement at the door, Fourth Grandpa led the children out.

As soon as they saw the Fourth Grandpa, Alice and Shirly immediately threw Li Junge aside and threw themselves into the arms of the old man. Zu Zu, Ge Ruan Ge Ruanpao shouted, cried and laughed, and watched the kiss with one cheek.

A group of children were watching strangely.

"These two sisters are really tall."

"Well, if only I could grow this tall in the future."

"Then eat more, my mother said that you will grow taller if you eat more."

"That's not necessarily the case. Xiaopang in our class eats a lot, but he's still a short and fat boy."

"Their noses are so straight. When I grow up, will I be so beautiful?"

"Well, fortunately, the hair and eyeballs are black. I'm starting to worry about two people with yellow hair and green eyes..."

"They're all human, what does it matter if they have yellow hair and green eyes?"

"Yellow hair and green eyes, my cousin can't scream..."

……

The fourth grandpa was so happy that he couldn't see his eyebrows. "Oh, the two girls are so beautiful. This is a big girl. Come on, stop making trouble, there are still guests here. This is..."

Mr. Si stepped forward excitedly, stood at attention, gave a military salute, and shouted hoarsely: "Si Qinghu, a soldier of the guard company of the 33th Regiment of the 97rd Division of the [-]th Army, salutes to the political commissar of the regiment!"

The fourth grandpa also became excited: "You are a little tiger? Haha! You are the naughty little tiger who didn't like to study!"

Old Man Si burst into tears: "Political Commissar, it's me, the little tiger who didn't like studying and wasted your steamed buns back then!"

After finishing speaking, he hugged the fourth grandfather and cried: "Old political commissar, I miss you so much these years, I miss you so much, I told God, if I can see you again, I will see Max immediately, I will I can close my eyes too! God treats me well, treats me well!"

Si Xingzhun and Li Junge hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, and the fourth grandfather also said, "Okay, men don't shed tears lightly, soldiers bleed and don't shed tears, you came with Xiao Zhun, this is..."

There were still two lines of tears in the corners of Mr. Si's eyes, but he laughed loudly: "Old political commissar, Xiao Zhun is my own grandson, you have educated two generations of my family! What is fate, this is fate, this It's fate!"

Fourth Grandpa was also very happy: "Hey! What a coincidence, Xiaozhun is smart, savvy, thoughtful, and has strong self-esteem. He is a good boy."

"If such a child gets to know him more deeply, praises and encourages him more, he will make some impressive achievements. He has done a lot in the past few months in Lijiagou."

Mr. Si sighed and said: "Your old method is still right. I think he has changed a lot in the past few months. This kid has caused his parents a lot of headaches at home."

Li Junge and Si Xingzhun rolled their eyes together, one thought: "Is he that good?" The other thought: "Am I that bad?"

Without mentioning how many people were chatting, Li Junge went out to check the banquet arrangement and prepare lunch for them.

First go to the edge of the ancestral hall, where a row of stoves has been built, with many large pots on them, and a pile of earthy yellow coarse porcelain bowls next to them. These bowls are not ordinary big, almost equal to a small Pots, this is the main body of this banquet, the "douwan".

In the old days, the volume units of grain were divided into stone, bucket, liter, and combined, and the decimal system was adopted.

But the measuring instruments are only dou and sheng, and dou is bigger than liter. In ancient times, one dou was equal to ten liters, so dou became synonymous with big, so there is a saying that "the word for big can't recognize a basket".

The old bowls, the largest ones are called pin bowls, are usually used to hold dishes with soup.

The second is the bucket bowl, which is used in banquets, which means that there are more dishes.It is not stingy to serve dishes in big bowls.

The next step is to buckle the bowl, and these three kinds of bowls are all big bowls.

Therefore, the "Nine Dou Bowl" is also known as the Nine Big Bowls.

Of course, "Nine Dou Bowls" does not mean that there are only nine dishes in the banquet, and there are other cold dishes and stir-fries interspersed in the middle.

Liu Sangao brought the menu and said to Li Junge: "Pi Wa, let's take a look at the dishes."

Li Junge looked at the result list and found that the arrangement was very good.

Dry dishes include:

A plate of miscellaneous sugar (with a box of cigarettes and a pack of paper towels), a plate of dried longan, a plate of melon seeds, a plate of peanuts, a plate of strange-flavored soybeans, a plate of longevity peaches, a plate of sugar oil fruits, a plate of crispy pork ribs, A plate of sesame jerky and a plate of sweet potato balls.

This is not only used before the banquet, but also wrapped into miscellaneous bags with some cold and dried vegetables after the banquet, and taken home for the guests. It is similar to the souvenirs of banquets in the city, but it is much more generous.

Next is the cold dish:

A plate of stewed beef, a plate of stewed pig ears and tail, a plate of cold chicken, a plate of cold duck, a plate of cold crucian carp, a plate of farm sausage, and a plate of cured pork heart, waist and tongue.

Next is the main course, and the bowls and bowls are all inside:

Inlaid bowl, first-class bowl, steamed soft-shelled turtle egg, one soup pot, one bowl of buckled chicken, one plate of garlic belly strips, one bowl of buckled duck, one small bowl of fat intestines and longevity noodles per person, one bowl of three delicacies soup, and one bowl of braised eel A bucket bowl, a piece of crispy carp, a piece of elbow, a bowl of stewed pork trotters with kelp, a plate of sweet roasted white rice, a plate of wine and rice, a plate of white fungus soup, a plate of bream pork ribs, and a plate of salty roasted white rice.

This is not over, there are also tail dishes: stir-fried pork liver with scallions, fried shredded pork with celery, sliced ​​lettuce, twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts, a plate of bear's paw tofu, a bowl of vegetable soup when blood is flourishing, a plate of cold and folded ears, and a plate of red bean fermented bean curd , a dish of kimchi.

Li Junge looked at it and said, "Isn't this buckled chicken and duck a 'bundled vegetable'?"

"Jie Cai" is a complete dish of chicken and duck, and a bowl of dishes is a whole chicken and a duck, called "Jie"

Liu Sangao said: "Your uncle said, let everyone eat well, but don't waste it. This time, the ones that were not bundled were the small-footed silky chickens and wild ducks collected by the farmers in the village. I discussed with Wang Heizi, After slaughtering and cleaning tonight, cook the whole chicken until it is half-ripe, remove it and let it cool, cut it into finger-thick strips, and put it neatly in the bowl, with the skin sticking to the bottom of the bowl. Put bamboo shoots and mushrooms on the chicken , yellow flower, put sour radish on the duck, mix it with broth, and steam it in a steamer until it is overcooked. When serving, turn the buckle bowl over into the bucket bowl, mix enough seasoned broth, and sprinkle chopped green onion on the table. You can get it No?"

This is also the characteristic of Jiu Dou Bowl, because there are so many guests, it is definitely too late to stir-fry, so all the big steamed dishes are prepared in advance, served as the main course, and a few freshly-fried dishes are added, and a table of noodles is enough It's done.

　Lao Zhou was drooling while writing this, especially the inlaid bowl!But I haven’t eaten it for a few years, and now I occasionally see the signboard of Jiudou Bowl in the city. It’s delicious... I dare not try it... I will add a new chapter tomorrow... They said that they have all set five hundred and should celebrate... Lao Zhou is a newcomer, and it’s also delicious. I don't know if they are trying to trick me... um, keep asking for subscriptions, recommendations, and...all kinds of things!
