"Okay, okay, my dad just came back. I'll make some ginger soup for him later, and then boil some hot water for soaking his feet in the evening to drive out the cold. Let it go today, but you can't watch for so long next time." Tian Tian first comforted Lin Meiyu, then turned to say a few words to Tian Lisong.
"Although the weather is getting warmer now, the ground is still full of cold air. You stand for a long time, and the cold air goes into your body through your feet, which is not good for your health. Don't stand outside for too long. I will buy you a fishing rod and you can go back home and fish in our creek. After fishing, dry the fish and send some to me so I can try it. What does the fish caught by our father taste like?" Tian Tian comforted Tian Lisong.
After hearing this, Tian Lisong was a little amused. How old is he now? Why is he like this? It’s not like he really can’t understand what is being said. Is he being treated like a child?
"Why buy a fishing rod? I have fishing rods at home. Don't waste your money. You can keep the money for yourself later. Don't worry, I just saw them catch so many fish today. Don't I care? I just wish I could catch those fish. I won't do that next time!" Tian Lisong said.
He was so new to fishing that he couldn't catch any fish. When he saw others catching so many fish, he wondered how they could catch so many fish and wanted to learn from them secretly.
After looking for a long time, I still couldn't figure out what was going on. I thought there might be more fish in this river and fewer fish in their river.
Old Mrs. Tian and Lin Meiyu were afraid that Tian Lisong would catch a cold, so they went to the kitchen to boil ginger soup and then boil a pot of water for Tian Lisong to soak his feet.
Tian Zhuo came back and rested for a while, then started picking vegetables and preparing to cook.
It's already a bit late today, so we have to move quickly. Fortunately, it's still dark at this time. Lin Meiyu and her friends usually eat late, maybe at one or two o'clock, so we're still in time now.
Tian Tian is pregnant now and gets hungry quickly. She can't stand the hunger any more and starts to look around the house to see if there is anything to eat.
There was no other food, but there was a small bag of previously roasted hazelnuts. Tian Tian put the small bag of hazelnuts in front of her and ate the roasted crispy and fragrant hazelnuts while watching TV.
These hazelnuts are definitely not as good as those sold in the previous life. After all, they don’t have the conditions to bake them. They can only be put in a pan and stir-fried gently to stir-fry most of the moisture, and that’s it.
There were still quite a lot of them after the quarrel, but in the past two days when Tian Tian had nothing to do, she would go over and touch a few to eat, and no matter how many there were, she would finish most of them.
After eating two to fill her stomach, Tian Tian went to help Tian Zhuo clean up the vegetables. Tian Tian was not the kind of person who would do nothing just because she was pregnant. She still couldn't stand the strong smell of cooking oil, but she could still do the usual tasks of picking and washing vegetables.
She tried her best to do what she could. She couldn't just take it for granted and push all the work onto Tian Zhuo.
Yesterday, Gu Zhao bought a lot of vegetables for his home, including pork, eggs, and a frozen fish. No one knew where he got them from.
After looking at the dishes, Tian Zhuo decided to make some pork stewed with vermicelli, some scrambled eggs, some stewed fish, and some stewed tofu. As for vegetables, he could just stir-fry some Chinese cabbage, since there was nothing else to eat except Chinese cabbage.
Pork stewed with sauerkraut and vermicelli is stewed in the pot in advance, because this kind of thing cannot be stewed on the spot. If you stew it on the spot, it will not taste good. You have to cook all the oil in the pork out and then cook it into the sauerkraut. It will taste best then.
Tian Zhuo moved quickly. He waited for them to finish boiling the water and ginger soup and bring it to Tian Lisong for soaking his feet. Then Tian Zhuo started to cut vegetables and stew them. The sauerkraut and pork stew had been stewed yesterday, so he just had to take it out and heat it up on the stove. Scrambled eggs and stir-fried cabbage were not difficult dishes, so he gave priority to stewing the fish.
I don’t know what kind of fish this Tiantian is. It looks weird, but there are very few bones on its body. There is only a spine and no other small bones.
Gu Zhao cut the fish into two pieces and put them into the pot to stew. When it was almost done, he added tofu and some cornmeal and put a circle of pancakes next to the fish pot.
After the fish stewed with tofu was ready, they took out the pancakes and put them in a bowl, put the fish stewed with tofu in another bowl, cleaned the pot, and started to stir-fry the cabbage, scrambled eggs and other four dishes. It was already one o'clock when they were ready, so they quickly brought the food to the table and ate.
The meals at home were prepared by Old Lady Tian and Lin Meiyu. Tian Zhuo was away from home most of the year because he was at school. He would help chop firewood and water the vegetable garden at home, but he seldom cooked. Therefore, this was the first time that Lin Meiyu and her friends had eaten meals cooked by Tian Zhuo.
As soon as they took a bite, they were very surprised and looked at Tian Zhuo in disbelief, "You made all these dishes? They are so delicious?"
"During the time he's been at home, he's been cooking most of the meals. Not only does the food taste good, he also cooks it in different ways for me. It just so happens that he still has a few days left to go to school, so I'll let him cook during these days and you can all try his cooking!" Tian Tian said proudly.
All the dishes were made by Tian Zhuo, but Tian Tian also used her own imagination during this period and described all the dishes she wanted to eat to Tian Zhuo, who was then able to perfectly replicate them, such as the three fresh vegetables, sweet and sour pork, and deep-fried crispy pork. These were all dishes that Tian Tian particularly craved but were rarely available here.
For example, the three fresh vegetables from the wild are often served in state-owned restaurants because there are only a few dishes and they are all grown in summer and are grown in every household.
However, sweet and sour pork and crispy pork are not often made. Firstly, the supply of pork is originally limited, and secondly, they are stewed with pork. There are many other dishes, so these two are rarely served. What are generally popular now are braised pork with pork belly, stewed meat, braised pork, and pork stewed with sauerkraut.
For example, for sweet and sour pork, you can only order it in advance with the chef when you entertain guests the next day. However, this is something that only government leaders would do. Ordinary people like them can eat whenever they want, and they still want to reserve dishes in advance. This is really wishful thinking.
They make even less crispy pork, and what they make more is soft-fried pork tenderloin. Crispy pork is different from soft-fried pork tenderloin, and they don't know how to make it here.
