Farmhouse Small God Bowl

Chapter 128 A Couple of Foodies

After listening to Niu Cuihua's words, Zhou Xiaobai finally realized what happened to the angry look that Zhou Xiatao gave him at the end of the day.Not to mention losing face in front of everyone, and being run on by others, he couldn't even stay in the village.Let's talk about it, it's not bad to be able to get married in a town.

As a result, after making such inquiries, the Yan family was in the same way, so Xia Tao hated Zhou Xiaobai in her heart.Zhou Xiaobai is very innocent, this matter really has nothing to do with her.

After chatting with Niu Cuihua casually, he went home.But this week Xiaobai was still thinking about it.Although he vaguely knew what brother Xiao Kai thought about him before, but after all, he didn't show it on the surface, but now that the matter of Zhou Xiatao was messed up, it spread, how should he get along with brother Xiao Kai What about?
This is a difficult problem, Zhou Xiaobai asked himself.Since returning to ancient times, the first man I know besides my own relatives is Brother Xiaokai.If it weren't for his help everywhere, I guess I would have starved to death in those days, so I am not grateful.

But if she was talking about whether she had other thoughts about him, Zhou Xiaobai didn't think so, it was because Yan Xiaokai was just a half-grown child in her opinion, and hadn't grown up yet.The relationship between my family and the Yan family is so good, if the Yan family comes to propose marriage at this moment, I am afraid that I will not agree.

In this case, wouldn't the relationship between the two families become stiff, and Zhou Xiaobai would also have a headache.But there is really no good way, so I can only procrastinate like this, pretending to be stupid Zhou Xiaobai still has a lot of experience.

After figuring this out, Zhou Xiaobai walked a little faster. Today, he still has an appointment with Mrs. Zhuangzi to fry mutton. Fortunately, he asked her to come later, but it's not too early now.I still have those two jars of pig blood to deal with.

Back home, Zhuang Ziniang hadn't arrived, and Zhou Xiaobai still had a little spare time to toss blood tofu.Recall the details of yesterday's making, which link is wrong, so the blood tofu made is a bit broken.

Zhou Xiaobai really hates himself for not learning a little bit before, and he doesn't have to think so hard now.Really can't figure it out, Zhou Xiaobai can only try from the beginning.

This time, first dissolve the salt with water, then pour the salt water into the pig's blood, wait for it to solidify, and then ask Chen Mo to come in and boil it.

After waiting for the blood tofu to be cooked, Zhou Xiaobai twisted it with his hands, and tasted it again. It was not so crispy, but the taste was still a bit off.It is estimated that the amount of salt water is a bit poor.There was still one jar left, so Zhou Xiaobai continued to try it.This time it seems to be better.

Zhou Xiaobai recalled the amount of salt needed for a jar of pig's blood, the time it takes to solidify, and the time it takes to boil it, and only then did he remember it firmly.

Zhou Xiaobai and Chen Mo tossed and tossed in the room for a long time before turning the pig's blood upside down.Zhou Xiaobai looked at Chen Mo busy in the kitchen, and couldn't help but sigh, it's spring and Chen Mo is not at home, so what can I do, I have to hurry up and get things done for Aunt Lin, so I feel at ease.

Just waiting for Zhou Xiaobai to finish his busy work, Zhuang Ziniang came to the door.As soon as she entered the courtyard gate, she saw that both her siblings were in the kitchen, and she also went directly into the kitchen.

"Xiaobai, you are really capable. I heard that the blood tofu you sent me yesterday was made of pig's blood?" Zhuang Ziniang was also very curious.Seeing Zhou Xiaobai nod his head, but he didn't continue to ask. Instead, Zhou Xiaobai asked, "Ma'am, do you think this blood tofu can be sold?"

Zhuangzi Niang gave her a thumbs up, "Why can't this be sold? If you don't tell me, I really can't eat it. It's made of pig blood. It's very refreshing and doesn't have any fishy smell. It can be sold at a good price."

Hearing Zhuangziniang's words, Zhou Xiaobai was delighted, so there should be a market for his blood tofu.

Zhuangziniang helped Zhou Xiaobai and Chenmo clean up the kitchen, and said she would come to help them make fried lamb.As soon as Zhou Xiaobai mentioned fried mutton, he thought of mutton skewers, and his saliva almost flowed down.

"Auntie, did you just cut the mutton into small pieces and fry them in a frying pan?" Zhou Xiaobai asked after thinking about it.

But Zhuang Ziniang laughed, "You call it fried mutton, but you really put it in a frying pan, it must be a waste of oil!"

Uh, Zhou Xiaobai was silent, and continued to watch Zhuangziniang's movements.Chen Mo is hardworking. The mutton bought yesterday has been washed and hung there to drain, and now the water is almost dripping.

It was just right for me at the moment, so I took the post off and separated the meat from the bones first.While doing it, he explained to Zhou Xiaobai, "This meat doesn't need to be scraped off completely, or if the bones are boiled into soup, there will be nothing to eat."

Zhou Xiaobai nodded. The mutton he bought yesterday was not bad. It was from the leg of lamb, and there was only one bone in the middle. The rest was all meat. Although it was not cheap, it was still worth the money.Seeing Zhuang Ziniang's actions should be cooking two dishes.

First, put the cut mutton in clean water and cook it for later use.When the meat was almost cooked, Zhuang Ziniang picked it up and cut it into half-inch strips. If there was no cooking wine at home, she used soy sauce to accompany it.

Then he ordered Chen Mo to fetch two eggs, mix them with flour, then wrap the mutton strips with a layer, and set them aside.Zhou Xiaobai didn't tell her to be idle, Zhuang Ziniang assigned her the task of peeling onion and ginger early in the morning.

Zhou Xiaobai burst into tears while peeling, not because he was tired, but because the scallions here are very strong.She just peeled off one, and it made her teary.Seeing Zhou Xiaobai like this, both Zhuang Ziniang and Chen Mo couldn't help laughing.

There was so much laughter and laughter in the kitchen that even Zhou Gensheng couldn't help coming over to have a look.

Zhou Xiaobai watched Zhuang Ziniang's movements, tsk tsk, this is much more troublesome than mutton skewers.

The Zhuangzi Niang had already heated up the pot, she peeled Zhou Xiaobai's scallions, cut them into sections, and sliced ​​the ginger, and threw them into the oil pan, and quickly stir-fried them a few times, until the fragrance came out.

In ancient times, there were no range hoods, so you could only rely on the chimney. When you stir fry like this, the smoke will run around, so Zhou Xiaobai hurriedly fanned it with a fan.

I saw Zhuang Ziniang put some sauce in the pot again, put some white soup that boiled the mutton just now, and then scooped up the aniseed, scallion and ginger slices that were put in.

Then he put the eggs and mutton into the pot with a single brain, asked Chen Mo to turn off the fire, and simmered it over a low fire until it was fully cooked, and gradually it smelled a little fragrant.Zhou Xiaobai couldn't help but lifted the lid and looked at it a few times, wanting to taste it secretly, but unfortunately Zhuangzi Niang watched it strictly, so she had to say that she was not familiar with it, so she had to give up.

Finally, seeing that the color was almost the same, I increased the ignition again, saying that it was a high-fire to collect juice.Zhuang Ziniang took a spoon and quickly stir-fried in the pot for many times before she said that it was almost ready and the pot could be started.

At the end, drizzle some sesame oil on it, and put it on the plate directly. "It's done, the roast lamb is ready."

Zhou Xiaobai and Chen Mo had been watching for a long time, and after finally waiting for Zhuangziniang to finish, they couldn't wait to reach out and grab a piece, and threw it into their mouths.

It's all hot mouth sucking, but it's delicious, and the hand continues to reach into the plate.Seeing the two children so greedy, Mrs. Zhuangzi was really angry and funny, and she thought of her own Zhuangzi. It was the same when she cooked this dish every year during the Chinese New Year.

"You two hurry up and help, don't steal it." He greeted the two of them to bring in the food, and now the food tends to be cold in winter, Zhuangzi Niang covered it with a big bowl.

After the main dish was ready, Mrs. Zhuangzi quickly made a few side dishes and served them out.Seeing the three of them sitting in front of the table, watching eagerly, but they didn't move their chopsticks, waiting for him to come.

Seeing Zhuang Ziniang finally came in, Chen Mo cheered, "Dinner is ready."

As soon as the big bowl was opened, another scent wafted out. The fragrance of mutton was mixed with the aroma of eggs. It was smooth and soft in the mouth, but the smell of mutton was gone.Zhou Xiaobai almost lost his tongue after eating.

After eating, Chen Mo patted his stomach, "Ma'am, it would be great if I could eat this."

Zhuang Ziniang patted his round belly, smiled and cleaned up the dishes, "This is so beautiful for you, this is a good food that can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year, or it is called the Chinese New Year."

"Ah!" Chen Mo was very disappointed when he heard that, it was the first time he had eaten such a delicious food, so he would have to wait until next year to eat it!

But Zhou Xiaobai said, "Chenmo, when you go to school in the spring, as long as you study well, my sister will send you fried lamb once in a while." Zhou Xiaobai is a foodie and he is not willing to wait until another year to eat. If you have money, you can eat it anytime.

But whoever thought of his kindness, Chen Mo snorted with a small nose, and laughed at Zhou Xiaobai instead, "Sister, the fried mutton you made is probably something you wouldn't even dare to eat yourself."

"Stop looking down on people." Zhou Xiaobai retorted, but he didn't have any confidence in what he said.Well, in fact, even she herself doesn't believe she can do it, but there are Zhuang Ziniang and Aunt Lin.That's why Zhou Xiaobai patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, even if your sister doesn't know how to cook, she will still ask you to eat this authentic roast lamb."

Zhuangziniang felt sorry for the money, "Xiaobai, this meal will cost a lot, even if you have money, you can't waste it!" Zhou Xiaobai knew that Zhuangziniang felt sorry for her, so she readily agreed.

However, Zhou Xiaobai never felt that the money spent on food was a waste. He and Chen Mo were both growing up, and his grandfather was also getting old, so he should eat something delicious.So she never underestimates herself in what she eats.

As soon as he finished cleaning the house, Zhou Xiaobai heard someone calling him outside.It's getting dark, who will come here!
