The full-level master chef made a big spoon in the 80s

Chapter 128 Octopus Pot
Early the next morning, Xu Nan and Mother Lu set off to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.

Lu's mother said as she walked, the second and third children probably won't get home until noon, so they don't have to worry, just stroll slowly.

The least people in this fishing village should be fish sellers. After all, every household makes a living by fishing and selling fish.

Mother Lu saw that the live fish sold by the stall was very fresh, so she stepped forward and asked:
"Brother, how do you sell this fish?"

When the fish seller looked up, he saw Mother Lu and greeted her:
"Hey, aren't these the brothers and sisters of the Lu family? Look at you, you only sell fish at home, why come out to buy fish to eat!"

The person who spoke looked at him strangely, Xu Nan had never seen him before, so he looked at him curiously.

The fish vendor was wearing a patched gray jacket, a straw hat on his head, and a pair of waterproof rain boots on the soles of his feet, probably because he was afraid of getting his shoes wet.

Mother Lu originally asked about the price, and her eyes were all focused on the fish on the stall. Seeing this man talking like this, she looked up and saw that he was an acquaintance, so she also smiled and said:
"I just said that the voice sounds familiar, so it's Brother Zhao."

"I'm just looking at the freshness of the fish you sell, so I came over to have a look."

Mother Lu pulled Xu Nan while talking, and introduced to her:

"This is your Uncle Zhao, our old neighbor for many years, who lives diagonally across from our house."

"He watched Nanzhou and his brothers grow up. Now that you meet, you have to call him Uncle Zhao."

After Xu Nan heard this, he put away the gaze he had just scrutinized, and yelled obediently at the man:
"Hello, Uncle Zhao."

"Well, okay, this is his daughter -in -law in Nanzhou. It looks so beautiful. This big eye looks watery, but it is really energetic."

"If my boy can be so promising and marry me a beautiful daughter-in-law, I will be content in this life!"

Uncle Zhao looked at Xu Nan while talking, his eyes were full of love and envy.

Xu Nan blushed from his praise, and hid behind Mother Lu with an embarrassed expression on his face.

Lu's mother must be happy to see this, after all, in this family, Xu Nan is the one who loves her the most.

Uncle Zhao's words really praised Mother Lu's heart.

Obviously she was praising Xu Nan, but Lu's mother smiled happily on her face, and those who didn't know thought it was her who was being praised.

There is one kind, if you praise my child, you are complimenting my posture, and you still say:

"The child in your family is also a lucky one. This university hasn't graduated yet, so why are you in a hurry?"

"When the child's job is stable, he will marry you a good wife when he is old!"

"Look, I'm patronizing and chatting with you. Our second and third child came back today. I don't think it's so hard for the family to reunite. I want to make more delicious food to celebrate."

"How do you sell this fish, bring me one quickly."

The fish seller also had a smile on his face when he heard it, and he just picked up a fish that looked like it weighed about five or six catties from the basin containing the fish.

Without weighing it, he directly put the fish into a plastic bag and handed it to Mother Lu, speaking in a particularly bright voice:
"Look at what you said, brother and sister, which one of our two families is with whom, you can just take this fish and eat it."

Mother Lu naturally shouldn't see this.There is no reason to eat other people's fish for free.

They all belong to the same village, and they all make a living by fishing and selling fish. These fishermen empathize with each other.

Lu's mother quickly waved her hand to refuse, took out a five-yuan note from her pocket, and stuffed it directly into Uncle Zhao's hand.

Then he snatched the bag with the fish out of his hand and said to him:

"How can I do that, I'm too embarrassed to eat your fish for nothing."

"It's not easy for our family, and we can understand each other. You keep the money, and you don't need to look for more."

After speaking, she pulled Xu Nan and ran away, ignoring Uncle Zhao shouting at her behind her:

"Hey, how can this work?"

"You gave too much money, don't leave, I'll give you some change!"

...

When I got home and looked up, I saw that the original broken asbestos tiles on the roof had been covered by newly bought asbestos tiles.

The entire roof looks brand new, and now I don't have to worry about leaking when it rains.

"These guys move pretty fast!"

Lu's mother was carrying big and small bags, and walked into the yard with Xu Nan while talking.

Lu Nanzhou was chopping wood in the yard, cooking for a while to light the fire.

Seeing Mother Lu and Xu Nan coming back, she hurriedly dropped the ax and ran a few steps to pick up the things they were carrying.

Lu's mother looked around, but she didn't see Lu's father, so she asked Lu Nanzhou:
"Where's your dad? Why didn't you see anyone else?"

Lu Nanzhou put the things in his hands on the table in the kitchen built in the yard.

Then he opened his mouth and replied: "I heard that it will rain again this day. Dad and Uncle Li next door went to the fish pond to see the fry."

Mother Lu nodded to show that she knew, then looked at the time and found that it was getting late.

Then he said to Lu Nanzhou:

"Since your dad is not here, it's your turn to light the fire, muttering, let's cook first, and wait for your dad and the others to come back while doing it."

After speaking, he directly took out the live fish from the plastic bag and dragged it to the cutting board to be disposed of.

The knife fell, and the fish died instantly.

The main one is steady and ruthless!

Xu Nan bared his teeth and grinned.

Geez, bloody.

But in just a few seconds, Xu Nan had already made up nearly 100 ways to make this fish in his mind, and even looked at the fish on the chopping board, eager to try.

After a while, Mother Lu suddenly ran into trouble after handling the fish.

For a while.She didn't even know what to do with the fish.

When she glanced at Xu Nan, her eyes suddenly lit up, thinking that the dried fish she made was so delicious, she asked:

"Mumble, how do you think we should eat this fish?"

"I thought about stewing it all, but this fish is too big. Our family can't eat it."

Seeing that the fish was fat and fresh, Xu Nan had a whim in his heart and said to Mother Lu:

"How about we eat fish hot pot!"

"Fish hot pot?"

Lu's mother looked puzzled, she had heard of this hot pot, but she had never tried this fish hot pot, forgive her.

Can this fish be used for shabu-shabu?
Under Lu's mother's puzzled eyes, Xu Nan snatched the kitchen knife from her hand, picked up the apron she put aside, and put it on for herself.

"Let's eat fish pot today. It saves time and effort. It just so happens that my mother and I bought so many dishes."

"It's too troublesome to make one after another. Just throw them all in the pot to cook, and then eat them with sesame sauce."

Xu Nan's hands were extremely fast. After a while, he cut the fish into thin slices, put them on a plate, and put them there for later use.
