Chapter 40 Rabbit Stew



There would be no such embarrassment if Tian Lisong went to deliver grain. So many teams had to go to the grain station to deliver grain. Waiting there for a day was considered fast. What's more, Tian Lisong was an accountant and would definitely not come back early.

And if the grapes in her space are not sorted tonight, they will go bad tomorrow.

Lin Meiyu thought about it and realized that this was the case. "Then go back to sleep and go to bed early at night.

"Okay! Mom, you should go to bed early at night and don't stay up late to make shoes for Xiao Zhuo. There is not so much work now, and you can catch up if you do it during the day." Tian Tian said.

Nowadays, people light kerosene lamps and candles at night. Shoes with such dark seams must be harmful to the eyes.

"Little housekeeper! You should go back quickly!" Lin Meiyu looked impatient with Tian Tian.

Tian Tian put on her shoes and quickly went back to her room.

The room was very warm. When Lin Meiyu was cooking in the evening, she also lit up the kang in Tian Tian's room and made out the quilt for Tian Tian. She was now keeping warm.

Tian Tian took off her clothes and got into bed. Her whole body was wrapped in heat and she sighed comfortably.

She stayed in the warm bed for a while and then went back into her shell.

She found two basins and filled them up with the grapes she picked.

Tian Tian's heart was bleeding as she poured the bottled water into the basin to wash the grapes.

She wanted to solve the problem of drinking water as soon as possible, but she always felt that it was a waste to use the water to wash grapes.

If she had known this earlier, she would have put a basin of water in the shells.

Tian Tian endured the pain and washed the grapes, then took out two gas tanks and poured the grapes into the pot to boil. After the grapes became a sauce, Tian Tian poured a lot of sugar into it.

It takes a long time to make jam, and Tian Tian used several gas tanks to make it.

It was past midnight. Tian Tian dozed off while taking a bite of the jam. It tasted sour and sweet, and would be perfect with bread. Unfortunately, she didn't have any bread in her bag.

Tian Tian put the jam into two glass bottles and put them away. The space was in a mess and she didn't want to clean it up, so she turned around and left the shell.

She had been cooking the jam in the space for so long that her whole body was now filled with the smell of hot jam.

She closed her eyes sleepily and fell asleep in the sour and sweet taste.

Maybe because she went to bed late at night, Tian Tian also got up late the next day.

After she woke up, Tian Lisong and the others had returned. They were too tired from guarding the food last night, and today Tian Tian could hear their snoring clearly even when she was standing outside.

After washing her face, Tian Tian finished her meal with Old Lady Tian and the others. She put the leftover food in the pot to heat it up for Tian Lisong and the others to eat, and then planned to go up the mountain to chop firewood with Old Lady Tian and the others.

"Tian Tian, ​​you don't have to go for now. Just stay home and wait for your father to wake up and ask him to kill the rabbit. Then you can stew the rabbit early so that we can eat it when we come back." Old Mrs. Tian said.

Chen Guihua's eyes lit up, and she immediately agreed, "Yes, yes, yes! Tiantian, stew the rabbit meat earlier. The meat will be fragrant only when it is stewed until it is mushy. Otherwise, it will not taste good."

Going up the mountain is very tiring, and Lin Meiyu didn't want her daughter to go up the mountain and suffer this. Now that Old Lady Tian and Chen Guihua had said so, she said, "Since your grandma has said so, you can go home and cook dinner, and take the two dirty clothes that your brother took off yesterday and throw them to him by the river."

Tian Tian can't do the work outside, but she doesn't mind taking on more of the housework.

Tian Zhuo only had two sets of clothes, and Tian Tian was too lazy to take them to the river to wash them, so she just put them under her own well and washed the clothes while pumping water.

When Tian Lisong woke up, Tian Tian immediately put the knife and the rabbit in front of him.

He went back to his room to sleep when he came back in the morning. He didn't know there was a rabbit in his house. He was really surprised to see Tian Tian handing the rabbit to him.

"How come you come back from the mountain with no results? Last time you got a big fat snake, and this time you got a rabbit. Our family will depend on you for meat in the future." Tian Lisong said jokingly.

"Hehe!" Tian Tian laughed, "Help me kill the rabbit quickly, I need to stew the rabbit meat early."

Tian Lisong picked up the knife and quickly slaughtered and skinned the rabbit. The skin was very complete without any tears, which amazed Tian Tian.

After Tian Lisong skinned the rabbit, he took out the internal organs, washed them, and chopped them into pieces for Tian Tian.

"Take it and stew it!" Tian Lisong handed the rabbit meat to Tian Tian as if he was giving her an unlimited black card.

Tian Tian took the meat, shaved off all the fat to prepare for refining oil, and went to the cellar to get some potatoes.

At that time, potatoes were still considered food, and you needed food coupons to buy them.

If the public grain tax is not paid, the newly harvested potatoes cannot be distributed.

The five potatoes in Tian Tian's hand are the last potatoes in their family.

"Dad, when can we distribute food? We don't have enough food at home. We don't even have potatoes."

Do not peel the sweet potatoes, just wash them with clean water and cut them into pieces.

"Tomorrow we'll turn the grain over once more and dry it in the sun. The day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow we'll go to the city to deliver the public grain. When we come back we'll have food to eat."

"Food and other things are secondary. Our oil bottle is empty now. Food will taste bad without oil." Tian Tian kept talking without interrupting the work at hand. After pouring the rabbit meat into the pot to stir-fry the oil, she added onions and garlic and stir-fried them.

Now that Tian Lisong was beside her, Tian Tian didn't dare to pour various spices into it, so she just poured some soy sauce and sprinkled some salt.

After the meat was cooked, she put the potatoes into the pot, poured some water into it, covered the pot and simmered it in the pot.

At this time, the aroma of rabbit meat had already come out. Tian Lisong took a deep breath and said, "Fortunately, we live far away from our neighbors, otherwise we would not be able to hide such a delicious smell."

"Tiantian's cooking is so delicious, I wonder who will benefit from it in the future." Tian Lilin also joked.

"She is still young, so let's not consider these things for now." No wonder Tian Lisong felt sad when he thought about his precious daughter getting married.

After hearing this, Tian Lilin stopped talking about it.

Tian Tian stewed the rabbit meat and then rummaged through the grain bag.

The grain bag was empty, and the remaining flour was enough for her to steam some cornmeal pancakes. If she did that, her family would have to tighten their belts in the next few days.

Tian Tian sighed and put the bag of grain down.

No one knew where Grandma Tian put the grain that was placed in the jar at that time. Now she didn't dare to secretly take out the cornmeal from the space. Grandma Tian knew very well how much grain was left at home.
