Border Cook

Chapter 596: Sour Cabbage Stewed with Bones

These words made Chen and Bai shudder.

If these rotten vegetable leaves, leftovers, sewage and the like are considered good things, then what are the bad things?
Could it be...

Chen and Bai didn't dare to think any further. They just felt their stomachs churning and nauseated. However, they had been traveling all the way here and had not eaten anything all day. Their stomachs were empty at this moment, and they only vomited out two mouthfuls of sour water.

Seeing this, Shen Shujun frowned slightly, "Why, you're not leaving yet?"

Go, go, why not go?

Shen Shujun seems to have gone crazy. If she doesn't leave now, I don't know what she will do!

Chen did not dare to delay for even a second. She hurriedly got up from the ground and did not allow the maid and Bai to support her. She walked away tremblingly.

The speed was so fast that Bai and others had to jog to catch up.

Seeing this pair of heinous people leaving in embarrassment, Shen Shujun did not intend to let it go. She just raised her hand to signal the servants around her to act according to the plan.

"Don't worry, young lady. I will do my best to get this done!"

Several tall and strong old women responded and walked away quickly through the alley on the other side of the Shen family's residence.

"What do you want them to do?" Shen Congxing was a little puzzled.

"They have brought shame to our Shen family. Wouldn't it be too easy for them to just let them go?" Shen Shujun told her grandfather her plan without reservation. "At least they have to suffer some physical pain."

It also saves them from having to come all the way here, and at least they can get something out of it.

Besides, she could breathe a sigh of relief and feel much better.

"Well said." Shen Congxing agreed with his granddaughter's decisive decision to kill at this time, "She is worthy of being my granddaughter, Shen Congxing!"

Her former intelligent granddaughter has really returned.

Shen Congxing was extremely pleased, and there was more expectation in his eyes when he looked at Shen Shujun.

Shen Shujun pursed her lips and said nothing more, but raised her eyes and looked towards the west.

She was able to do this thanks to one person.

In the endless darkness, he was the one who gave her light.
-
The winter month begins with a heavy snowfall.

It snowed heavily and lasted for two whole days. The snow on the ground was more than a foot thick.

It was snowing heavily and the weather was cold, so many people stayed at home.

The same is true for Xia Mingyue.

Sitting by the blazing charcoal stove, holding a cup of hot tea in hand, when the tea has lost its taste in your mouth, you can take some crispy salt-and-pepper rice crust, fragrant egg rolls, and crunchy egg yolk peanuts from the box covered with oil paper next to you...

Or you could take some of the spicy rabbit jerky made from the rabbits that Xia Yunji and Fan Jinglan had hunted earlier, and chew it slowly.

When the mouth is spicy, you can have some hawthorn or canned yellow peach, or eat some crispy roasted apple slices, which will make your mouth full of sweetness and freshness. After all these snacks, it is basically time to eat.

The steaming sauerkraut stewed with big bones is soft and delicious, with a sour and tasty taste. It is very appetizing and you can finish half the pot in one go. When you get tired of eating meat, you can have a few bites of sauerkraut to relieve the greasiness.

It is even more delicious when eaten with cornmeal pancakes stuck along the edge of the pot, and has a flavor and a satisfying feeling similar to that of Northeastern iron pot stew.

Or you can use the sour radish to stew a whole duck as the soup base, eat a big pot of it with the soup and meat first, then use the sour and delicious soup base to dip some light and delicious vegetables, eat it hot all afternoon, and you don’t even need to have dinner. Just empty your stomach a little, and you will feel very comfortable when you go to bed at night.

In addition, you can sit in front of the pot where chicken racks and pork bones are stewed into soup, put all kinds of skewers into the pot, and take out whatever you want to eat while it's still hot, either eat it directly or dip it in some sesame paste, and then when you're almost done, take a small bowl, scoop up some of the soup, hold the bowl in a circle, blow on the hot air, and drink it slowly, which is the most enjoyable...

But the most comfortable thing is the freshly cut meat slices that were slowly roasted on an iron plate.

The mutton slices are fully soaked in blood and cut into thin slices as thin as a cicada's wing. When placed on the iron plate, they change color in just a moment and taste the most tender.

There is no need to dip it in any seasoning, just take two bites of its original flavor and your mouth will be filled with its mellow fragrance and freshness.

The thickly cut strips of pork belly are roasted on an iron plate for a long time until all the fat oil seeps out and the surface turns brown. It tastes neither greasy nor oily and is the perfect dish.

When a lot of gravy has come out on the iron plate, put some sliced ​​mushrooms in, and let the mushrooms absorb all the rich flavor. When you eat the mushrooms at this time, you will feel the meaty aroma and the taste will be delicate and soft...

Such delicacies can be eaten from the beginning of heavy snowfall until the snow on the ground has almost melted. It can be said that there is something different every day. All those who have already put on a lot of weight in the autumn will feel that their cotton-padded clothes are now tighter.

Among them, Xia Mingyue was included for the first time.

The cotton-padded jacket, which was originally a little loose, now feels a little tight on the shoulders and arms when worn. If you eat a little more, your waist will still feel a little tight. Xia Mingyue had to inform Qingju and Yinqiao to make a new cotton-padded jacket quickly.

This made Qingju and Yinqiao overjoyed. They put aside what they were doing and helped Xia Mingyue make a new cotton-padded coat.

While the two were doing needlework, Xia Mingyue also picked up the needle and thread to make some close-fitting clothes for Lu Qiyan and Xia Yunji.

Seeing this, Fan Jinglan also picked up the needle and thread.

However, unlike other people who make clothes, Fan Jinglan makes blessing bags.

A blessing bag used during Chinese New Year.

"Madam Fan, isn't it too early to start making lucky buns now?" Xia Mingyue asked with a smile.

"Normally speaking, it is indeed early, but there are many things to do before the New Year, and I haven't been in the capital for more than half a year this year. I am afraid that I will have to travel around and have constant social engagements, and I probably won't have much free time."

When Fan Jinglan mentioned this, she looked helpless, "That's why I thought of making some early so that I can have them ready for the New Year."

This will avoid having to stay up late to sew, which is very tiring.

"Indeed." Xia Mingyue nodded and couldn't help but smile.

It's a bit like the winter vacation homework that elementary school students have to do. If you finish it early, Bean can use the rest of the time as he pleases and play to his heart's content. If you procrastinate, then the night before school starts, when he can use a pen and a lamp to create miracles.

Just talking about the Chinese New Year, it is the beginning of winter now, and it is only forty or fifty days away from the Chinese New Year. I don’t know what the situation in the military camp is like now.
