Chapter 29: Collect fish livers?
Chu Xuan knew she had to maintain her thick skin to the end, otherwise someone might die, so she whispered coquettishly, "Grandma Gao, starting tomorrow afternoon, I'll be buying a lot of skinned fish. From now on, you'll have to help me kill the skinned fish at home. Besides, you don't know the exact location of the large farmers' market in the city, but Uncle Mingchen does. It's a good opportunity for him to take my aunt to the city for a walk, and he can also keep me company."
Gao Meijuan thought about it and realized that this was the truth. In order for Xiaoxuan's grilled fish fillet workshop to successfully open up the market, it wouldn't matter if her eldest son went out to sea for one day less.
"Okay, I'll tell him when he comes back."
Only then did Chu Xuan leave with peace of mind.
When she got home, her younger brother had already killed and skinned the fish, and thrown the fish head, skin and internal organs into the trash can, leaving only the fish meat and bones.
Chu Xuan glanced at the fish liver with a look of regret on his face. "Fish liver can be used to extract cod liver oil. I'll just throw it away today. Tomorrow I'll go to the county pharmaceutical factory and ask if they'll accept it."
Chu Feng looked at her with admiration, "Sister, you are amazing. You all know that fish liver can be used to extract cod liver oil."
Since the family separated, his sister always managed to give him surprises.
Chu Xuan would not tell him that this knowledge was told to her by Mu Chenze in her previous life.
In order to encourage her younger brother to study hard, she lied calmly, "That's because I read a lot of books secretly."
Chu Feng muttered softly, "Why don't I know?"
Chu Xuan tapped his head gently. "If others knew about it, would it still be considered reading secretly? Well, don't you want to know how to make grilled fish fillets? Watch me!"
Put on an apron and sleeves made from old clothes and start pickling the skinned fish.
Prepare sugar, pepper, cooking wine in advance...
Just making savory and sweet flavors tonight.
As for the fish bones, roast them together for the time being. After the market opens, we will make roasted fish fillets without bones.
In fact, roasted fish bones are delicious and can also supplement calcium.
These days, Chu Feng has been taught by Chu Xuan very diligently and has a lively eye.
Without waiting for Chu Xuan to say anything, he went to the adobe house to get firewood.
Tonight they each lived in a new bedroom, and from now on the adobe house would be used to store firewood and sundries.
The new bedroom was not damp because the kang had been heated a few days earlier and was almost dry.
The weather is hot now, so there is no need to use the kang. Before lighting the fire in the kitchen, you can block the kang path and the temperature in the bedroom will not be affected.
The kitchen is twice as spacious as before. It is made of brick and has a cement floor. It has two large windows, which provide very good ventilation when opened.
Chu Feng felt that cooking in such a kitchen was a pleasure.
Make a fire and boil water.
After the water boiled, Chu Xuan carried a bucket of water back to the bedroom to take a bath. The fish needed to be marinated for a while.
Ten minutes later, Chu Xuan finished taking a shower and changed into clean clothes.
When the bath water was poured into the yard, it made a slight sizzling sound when it hit the cement floor.
It sounds so pleasant.
The cement floor dried in no time.
Chu Feng also walked out of the bedroom and poured water.
The brother and sister smiled at each other. It felt so good to live in a spacious house and take a shower without worrying about dirtying the floor.
Furniture like wardrobes will take two days to arrive, but they are not in a hurry.
After pouring the water, Chu Feng went to the kitchen to check the firewood in the oven.
The firewood is burning brightly.
At around ten o'clock in the evening, Chu Xuan and her brother placed the fish neatly on a steel tray. They controlled the size of the vents on the stove to get the right temperature before putting the tray into the oven.
Chu Xuan was in charge of watching the stove, as she had experience from her previous life.
Forty-five minutes later, the fragrant and golden grilled fish fillets came out of the oven.
Not a single one was burnt, and they all looked great.
When it cooled down a little, Chu Xuan broke off a piece and handed it to his younger brother.
"Try it."
Chu Feng took it with a reverent look on his face. He took a small bite first, and the freshness, sweetness and saltiness of the fish filled his mouth. Then he took a big bite and said, "Delicious!"
Chu Xuan took a bite of the fish bone; it was crispy and delicious.
Success!
The fish slices taste many times better than those sold in other places. If they are pressed with a noodle machine, the fish meat will be softer and more palatable.
When I save some more money, I will buy a pasta machine.
At that time, the fish meat and fish bones will be grilled separately and sold at different prices.
I promised Mu Chenze that I would send him grilled fish fillets tomorrow.
Chu Xuan divided the grilled fish fillets into two equal parts.
Half was given to Mu Chenze, and the other half was divided into two, one for Grandma Gao's family and one for home.
Chu Xuan patted his own portion and said, "Xiao Feng, eat as much as you can! I'll be buying a large quantity of skinned fish tomorrow, so this little bit won't make a difference."
Chu Feng ate the grilled fish fillets with a look of satisfaction, which he had never dared to imagine before.
That night, Chu Feng ate too much, so he simply read a book to kill time and help digest the food.
Chu Xuan didn't eat many pieces.
After confirming that the red snail in the bucket was still alive, he went to brush his teeth and returned to his room to rest.
There is still a lot to do tomorrow.
I lay on the mat, closed my eyes, but couldn't fall asleep at first.
Thinking about something.
She knew that Qin Xuehong's matter was not that simple and always thought that Feng Ti was a scapegoat.
In his previous life, Feng Ti lived a good life. He never confessed his guilt, nor did he commit suicide.
Because of her, the fate of some people in this life has changed.
The real murderer is still hiding somewhere.
Qin Xuehong is still alive, will the real murderer harm her again?
However, given Qin Xuehong's current condition, it's not worth taking any more risks to find the real murderer, right?
Why did Feng Ti become a scapegoat? Feng Chunhua must know something.
How can I get information out of Feng Chunhua?
Did Feng Ti really steal Feng Chunhua’s money?
Chu Xuan fell asleep with all kinds of questions in his mind...
At half past six the next morning, Chu Xuan got up, washed up, and cooked a pot of scallop, egg and noodle soup for breakfast. He drank two large bowls of it happily while blowing on it, and called his younger brother to get up, telling him that there was rice left in the pot.
When her younger brother walked into the yard, she prepared to go out.
As soon as I opened the gate, Liu Zhaodi happened to come over carrying two large wicker baskets.
Liu Zhaodi had heavy dark circles under her eyes, and one could tell without asking that she had been weaving baskets all night long.
Chu Xuan quickly pulled out eighty cents from his pocket and went over to her. "Zhao Di, thank you! This is for the basket."
Together with yesterday's deposit, it's enough.
Liu Zhaodi forced a smile on her tired face. "No need to thank me. I'm so happy that you bought the basket I made!"
Having said this, he seemed to be hesitant to speak. In the end, he said nothing, waved his hand, and turned away.
Chu Xuan didn't notice her expression. He just put the wicker basket in the yard and went out.
Chu Feng watched his sister leave, and only closed and bolted the door after he could no longer see her.
Chu Xuan took a horse-drawn carriage to the town and took a bus to the county Chinese medicine hospital to register to see an old Chinese doctor.
In fact, she could also take a boat directly from the village to the county town, which would save money than taking a car, but unfortunately she was in a traumatic situation.
The diagnosis given by the old Chinese doctor was that the body was heavy with dampness, spleen and stomach disorders, deficiency of both qi and blood, and obesity.
You need to drink Chinese medicine to slowly regulate your body and exercise moderately.
Same as what was said in the previous life.
Chu Xuan took the prescription, paid the money and got the medicine.
Nowadays, you have to boil Chinese medicine yourself.
My home is lacking a casserole or ceramic pot for decocting medicine.
There are people selling it at the entrance of the Chinese Medicine Hospital.
Chu Xuan carried seven sets of Chinese medicine, bought a pot, and also bought six bananas, and walked towards the county pharmaceutical factory.
When they arrived at the entrance of the pharmaceutical factory, Chu Xuan took the initiative to hand a banana to the security guard.
"Uncle, does this factory accept fish livers?"
The security guard took the banana but didn't eat it. He planned to take it home for his grandson. "I won't accept it."
Chu Xuan was about to leave with a look of regret on his face, but the security guard took one look at the banana in his hand and said, "Wait a moment."
