Zhang Siyu was involved in a car accident. When she opened her eyes again, she was in a small fishing village in the 1960s, as Cheng Zhenzhu, a widow single-handedly raising three children.
T...
"We'll eat meat tonight when my brother comes home. Mom will make you braised yellow croaker with beef sauce for lunch today."
Zhang Siyu knew that the meat Xiaoxiao was talking about was the tender pork tenderloin. All the little kids liked to eat it, especially the little one hanging on her lap.
I have never heard of this dish, but it has beef, sauce and fish, so you can tell it must be delicious.
The beef jerky his mother gave him the day before yesterday was especially delicious.
"Mom, let me help you light the fire!" Peng Ertiao said immediately.
"Help mom~" Peng San Tiao let go of his mother's hand and ran to the wooden block in front of the stove a little anxiously.
But his two short legs were no match for his brother's, as Peng Ertiao had already taken the first position. Seeing this, Peng Sandiao stuck his little butt out and squeezed onto the wooden block as well.
"No hurry, mother still has to cut the fish."
"Kill the fish, fish." Hearing this, Peng Sandiao stopped rushing towards his second brother and ran to the door, moving his own small stool to watch his mother cut the fish.
Peng Ertiao did not move, still sitting firmly on the wooden block. He would not be fooled!
And he can also watch his mother kill fish while sitting here.
Zhang Siyu threw the yellow croaker that she had knocked unconscious onto the chopping board, sliced the fish along the bones, removed the internal organs, scraped off the black film, and made a few diagonal cuts to make it easier to season.
The thin and small Peng Sandiao stood on a small stool and watched intently. He even stretched out a brown finger to poke it, but was pulled back by Peng Ertiao.
"Brother, your hands are dirty." Peng Ertiao's face was full of disapproval.
Peng San Tiao buried his little head and looked at it, then threw away the dirt on his hands bit by bit, wiped it on his body, and then spread out his two little paws to show his brother.
Alas. Peng Ertiao sighed like a little old man, "Let me take you to wash your hands. You have to be clean, okay? Your hands are dirty, and you wiped them on your clothes, and the clothes are dirty too. Don't wipe your hands on your clothes next time!"
Peng San Tiao blinked and nodded somewhat innocently. "Wash your hands~"
Seeing that his teaching had been effective, Peng Ertiao was satisfied when his younger brother took the initiative to tell him to wash his hands. He took his younger brother's hand, scooped water for him to wash his hands, and rubbed his own hands twice.
After washing his hands, Peng San Tiao wiped his hands consciously and even grabbed the corner of the handkerchief to wipe his second brother.
Zhang Siyu glanced at him a few times and was very satisfied. This brother is a good brother, and the younger brother is also a good brother...
After processing the fish and draining it, Zhang Siyu took the opportunity to go to the room to get eggs to enter her personal space to steam rice and get beef sauce.
There was only one can and a small half of beef sauce left. She'd bought this for her morning noodles. It was a pretty small can, and she'd only bought three, so this was all she had left.
"Mom, you didn't take the eggs." Peng Ertiao reminded his mother when he saw her come out.
My mother was holding a small bottle in her arms and a few small jars in her hands, but no eggs.
"Dandan~" Peng San Tiao also said.
I forgot about it. Zhang Siyu smiled and said, "Second sentence, help me get three eggs. Do you know where to put them?"
The eggs she had stockpiled before were all in the space, but the two pounds of eggs she bought from the supply and marketing cooperative last time were placed in the room. The eggs she had eaten recently were those two pounds, and now there should be less than one pound left.
"I know." Peng Ertiao immediately went into the room.
Peng Sandiao followed with a quick step, then carefully brought out an egg.
Zhang Siyu thanked the two little kids and opened her seasoning jars one by one.
She didn't specifically stock up on seasonings, but she did buy some salt for two yuan a bag and some dried chilies for five yuan a bag when she was buying groceries online.
There isn't much light soy sauce, oyster sauce, or dark soy sauce, but there are still one or two bottles, enough to last for a while.
Half an hour later, a dish of yellow croaker with fragrant beef sauce was ready.
Not to mention the two little kids, she also felt hungry just by smelling it.
Zhang Siyu quickly cleaned the pot and made some loofah soup.
"It smells so good!" Peng Ertiao and Peng Santiao stood beside the table, blinking their eyes.
Zhang Siyu brought out the steamed rice and scooped a portion for each of the two eagerly waiting children.
Three is certainly a small bunch.
"Delicious!" Peng Ertiao held the bowl and took a big mouthful of the fragrant and soft rice.
"Cold~" Peng Sandiao grabbed the spoon and looked at the two fish in the bowl, feeling a little anxious.
"Wait, let me remove the thorns for you."
Peng Ertiao: "Mom, I can find the faults myself."
"Yes~" Peng San Tiao said immediately.
This little girl... She believes the second one, but she'll handle the third one.
Zhang Siyu picked up a piece of fish, picked out the bones, and dipped it in a little sauce.
She didn't put any chili peppers in the grilled fish, only the beef sauce was a little spicy, which was within the acceptable range for the little kids.
Peng Sandiao looked at the extra fish meat in the bowl, scooped it up, and caught it with his little mouth sucking.
Zhang Siyu picked up the few grains of rice that had fallen out and fed the little guy a spoonful of egg custard.
In fact, San Tiao is quite smart. In just a few days, the damage range of the spoon has been greatly reduced. The rice is no longer scattered everywhere, and the vegetables have not fallen out at all.
"Mom, I want to eat another bowl." Peng Ertiao licked the corner of his mouth, his eyes sparkling.
Zhang Siyu served him some food and then scooped a spoonful of egg custard for him.
"Thank you, Mom!" Peng Ertiao swallowed a big mouthful.
The egg custard is tender and smooth, so delicious!
Zhang Siyu smiled and scooped another big spoonful for the little guy.
The egg custard steamed with three eggs is quite a lot, and each person can have half a bowl.
After eating half a bowl, San Tiao was full. Then he scooped out two more mouthfuls of fish meat for himself, dipped them in a few grains of rice, and chewed them with a "smacking" sound.
