Chapter 52 Prepare some marinated food
The young man frowned even more tightly. "Does your attitude have any other meaning? Who can't hear the meaning behind your words? Apologize quickly and don't make me say it again."
Su Yao bit her lip and looked at Lin Anan reluctantly, her voice so low that it was almost inaudible, "Comrade, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention to what I said just now, don't take it to heart."
Lin Anan took a step to the side, not worthy of the apology.
It wasn't her who asked for the apology, but the people in the art troupe all had angry looks in their eyes. What was going on?
baffling!
"You don't need to apologize."
After saying that, she nodded to the young man, then pulled Chu Minglan and Chu Mingyu and walked quickly towards the seasoning shelf, not wanting to stay here any longer.
The young man looked at Lin An'an's receding back, deep in thought...
"Instructor, do you know that female comrade?"
“No.”
The young man turned and walked towards the counter where the TV was placed and took out the bill from his pocket.
Everyone gathered around the TV counter, and no one paid attention to Lin Anan and the other two.
"If we had known there would be so many people, we would have come again in the afternoon."
Having said that, Lin Anan felt fortunate in her heart that the supply and marketing cooperative currently had a full range of seasonings, all thanks to the new goods that arrived at the end of the year.
I bought all the main ingredients in the marinade packets, and also bought substitutes for one or two of the scarce ones.
After buying all the seasonings, Lin Anan went to buy some snacks, including sesame candies and peanut cakes that had just arrived.
purchase!
The three of them did not leave the supply and marketing cooperative until the backpack was full.
The people from the art troupe haven’t left yet.
"Hey, you said Su Yao is so interesting. She gets angry when she sees a female comrade standing next to the instructor."
"Hahaha, that's right! You know, Su Yao is the instructor's dating partner, and the instructor is having a headache!"
"Don't talk about Su Yao, the instructor will criticize you again if he hears it."
"Yes, it's great that the TV has arrived. I thought we could be on TV! But it's a pity that Songquan is still in the hospital. Our art troupe has lost its flute and accordion players, so it's impossible for us to be on TV..."
Several male comrades were standing there chatting, and Lin Anan, holding the two little ones, walked straight past them without stopping.
A military jeep stopped in front of her, blocking her way.
Lin Anan paused and wanted to go around, but the car window was lowered, "Watch the road."
Chu Mingzhou's cold voice reached their ears, and Lin Anan and the other two all raised their heads.
Who else could be sitting in the passenger seat of the military vehicle if not Chu Mingzhou?
"Mingzhou."
"elder brother!"
Chu Mingzhou responded to several people, hesitated for a moment, then opened the door and got out of the car.
Lin Anan felt a weight lighten on her back as the backpack was taken away by him.
"Why are you here?"
Chu Mingzhou asked the three people to get on the back seat, and put the backpack in the trunk, then sat back in the passenger seat. "The report we did last time should be on TV before the end of the year. I'll get a TV."
Lin Anan thought of the TV that the art troupe bought...
"Mingzhou."
Chu Mingzhou's car window hadn't been raised yet when he was caught by Lu Qing. He smiled and tried to open the door, but was stopped by Chu Mingzhou. "Wait a minute, I'll take my wife home first. She's not feeling well."
Lu Qing paused, and before he could say anything, Su Yao beside him spoke first, "Captain Chu, is this your attitude of borrowing something? It's your special operations battalion that wants to borrow the TV from our art troupe. What do you mean by not letting our instructor get on the bus now?"
"Shut up."
“Instructor!”
Lin Anan blinked and looked a little confused.
What a coincidence! The person who came was the young man who had helped me, the instructor of the art troupe.
He called Chu Mingzhou "Mingzhou", and it seemed that they had a close relationship.
"Then I'll wait for you here for a while. Your house isn't far away anyway." The young man stepped back a few steps, politely, not minding at all that Chu Mingzhou sent someone off first.
"Um."
Chu Mingzhou simply raised the car window and let the soldier next to him drive.
Lin Anan suddenly felt that she was different.
Look, look at how disrespectful Captain Chu is to others and how bad his attitude is!
He acts like he's worth two and a half million.
"Brother, my sister-in-law and I almost fell down in the supply and marketing cooperative, and it was the big brother just now who helped us up..." Chu Minglan told what happened just now in the supply and marketing cooperative.
Chu Mingzhou looked back at Lin Anan, scanned her from head to toe, and then asked softly, "Are you okay?"
Lin Anan shook her head and said, "It's okay. I'm being supported."
"If Lan Jie falls down in the future, don't bother her. She's tougher than you."
Lin Anan: “…”
Is this what a brother would say?
Lin Anan hurriedly glanced at Chu Minglan, fearing that the little girl would be sad.
But...she didn't!
Chu Minglan suddenly came to her senses and felt that what her elder brother said made sense. "Indeed, it's okay for me to fall. Sister-in-law, you are not allowed to help me up in the future."
Lin Anan:?
The Chu family is indeed not far from the supply and marketing cooperative, only a few minutes’ drive away.
The car stopped at the door. Chu Mingzhou didn't say anything. He took the backpack to the kitchen first. Finally, he gave Chu Minglan a few instructions and quickly turned around and left.
Lin Anan looked at Chu Mingzhou's departing back and felt a little amused.
He is obviously caring and considerate towards his family, but he still has to give them the cold shoulder.
"Xiao Lan, come, let's pack up the things we bought, and my sister-in-law will start making the braised food soon."
“Here I come.”
Chu Mingyu also followed excitedly, "Sister-in-law, I won't make trouble. I'll just watch from the side. When the stew is ready, I'll be the first to taste it. Is that okay?"
"OK."
Lin Anan smiled and took the two little ones into the kitchen. She handed the sesame candies and peanut cakes to Chu Mingyu to eat, while she started to prepare the marinade packets.
Chu Minglan gathered the firewood and started to boil the pot.
Chu Mingzhou prepared all the ingredients needed, including pig heads, pig tails, pig offal, etc., overnight.
Lin Anan only needs to make the marinade, which is very easy.
"First, fry it until fragrant, then start to cook the stew. When it's fragrant, we'll put the ingredients in. The stewing is divided into three steps..." Seeing that Chu Minglan was particularly interested in the stewed food, Lin Anan simply talked while she was cooking.
The firewood stove is still used this time. The pot is big enough and the fire is strong enough. The food cooked is particularly fragrant, with a rare smell of smoke.
The earthen stove in the Chu family's kitchen has two pots, one for braising the big pig's head, and the other for braising the pig's offal and tail, which is just right.
Lin Anan also threw a few strips of pork belly into the empty space. "When the time comes, chop the pork belly into small pieces and pour the marinade over it. It will be braised pork rice, which is especially delicious."
Half an hour later, the overbearing aroma became stronger and stronger...
Chu Mingyu was young after all, and his emotions were very obvious. The little guy stood there, swallowing his saliva, staring at the pot without blinking, muttering: "Sister-in-law, this smells so good, I can't wait to eat it!"
Although Chu Minglan was also tempted by the aroma, she did not forget the work at hand. While adding firewood to the stove, she said, "Xiaoyu, don't be impatient. Sister-in-law said that this stewed food has three steps. It needs to be stewed slowly so that it can be flavored."
Lin Anan looked at the two little guys' greedy and cute appearance and couldn't help laughing. "Don't worry, we'll have braised pork rice for lunch, and the rest will be at least in the evening, when your brother comes back."
"You can see that the color of the marinade is becoming richer and richer, and the aroma is also coming out. To make marinated food, you need to spend time and slowly, so that the taste is authentic..."
