"Look at what you're saying. I'm just taking a few days off for the New Year. I'm not quitting my job as a cook."
As he spoke, Chen Jun turned his wrist and took out a bottle of yellowish-brown liquid from behind him.
"My family has made some medicinal wine. This wine can not only cure some colds and typhoid fever, but also strengthen the body. After drinking it, you will be full of vigor and vitality. Master Liu, please try it. Maybe after drinking it, your body will get better."
This wine was specially made by Chen Jun on the way here. The ingredients are the tiger bone wine signed in by the system and a Wenshen Yangyuan Pill.
Tiger bone wine strengthens the body, and the alcohol in it can also speed up the absorption of Wenshen Yangyuan Pill, so the effect should be good.
In fact, it would have been fine to directly feed Master Liu the Wenshen Yangyuan Pill, but this kind of pill was too eye-catching, so Chen Jun wanted to use tiger bone wine as a cover to make Master Liu mistakenly believe that the tiger bone wine played the main role.
The moment he saw the bottle of wine, Mr. Liu was stunned.
He raised his hand tremblingly, pointed at the bottle and asked, "You...you little bastard, you let me drink this?"
ah?
Chen Jun was stunned. He took the medicinal wine and took a look at it, then hid the wine behind him.
Damn, the tiger has drunk all the wine!
"That's right, drink this!" Chen Jun changed the wine back without changing his expression and handed it over again.
Master Liu took a closer look and rubbed his eyes with great effort.
Tiger bone wine? ?
Did I just see it wrong?
Aunt Rong standing by also took a look at the wine handed to her by Chen Jun and couldn't help but sigh.
When Mr. Liu had nothing to do, he also liked to have a bite.
At that time, Aunt Rong would grumble a few words when she saw it.
But now seeing the wine, Aunt Rong subconsciously wanted to scold him, but when she saw that her husband was already like this, she thought, why should she care so much?
Besides, this wine is also Chen Jun’s gift.
Putting the wine on the table, Chen Jun stood up and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to cook some appetizers. Master Liu, you can have a bite first."
Having said that, he turned and left the inner room.
Master Liu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but a violent coughing fit came over him.
“Cough cough cough~ cough cough cough~~”
Upon seeing this, Aunt Rong hurriedly helped Grandpa Liu up, and it took him a while to recover.
When I looked at the sputum I coughed up again, I saw that it was stained with blood.
Chen Jun searched around and found the kitchen. He looked inside and discovered that the kitchen was not big, but there were a lot of things.
Needless to say, there is no shortage of daily necessities such as rice, oil, salt and some vegetables and meat.
Given Mr. Liu's current condition, it's not appropriate to have a big meal of meat and fish. Let's find some dishes that can go well with wine.
So Chen Jun turned his attention to the bunch of pickles in the basin.
This pickled vegetable is the most common snow vegetable in the old city. It is pickled with salt. It is a good match with porridge when you have breakfast.
But if you eat it directly, it is very salty.
It’s good to be salty, it goes well with wine!
Chen Jun smiled and grabbed a bunch of snow vegetables and soaked them in water.
Taking advantage of this time, Chen Jun prepared the ingredients for cooking.
They are just some simple onions, ginger and garlic.
As for seasonings, there was no shortage of them in the kitchen, and he also unexpectedly found a jar of animal oil.
It is obvious that this snow-white meat oil is made from pig fat, and it is cooked quite well.
Well, the kitchen is quite complete, so there is no need to bring my own seasonings.
Light the fire and heat the pan.
When the pan is heated, add half a spoonful of lard into it.
The lard melts quickly when heated.
When the oil temperature rises, add the scallions, ginger and garlic you just prepared and stir-fry until fragrant.
At this time, squeeze out the water from the soaked snow vegetables, throw them in and start stir-frying.
While stir-frying, Chen Jun would occasionally throw a little lard into the pan, so that the snow vegetable could fully absorb the lard.
Xuecai also seems to be getting fuller and fuller.
You know what, stir-frying snow vegetables in this way has a unique flavor. The fragrance drifted from the kitchen to the main room, attracting even Aunt Rong.
It smells so good!
This snow vegetable is very salty and tastes a bit bitter.
But lard fully changes the taste of snow vegetables.
In this era, whether you are rich or poor, everyone likes meat.
Ordinary families prefer the meat oil made from lard.
Food stir-fried with animal oil, even vegetables, are very fragrant.
After a few minutes, the snow vegetables fried with lard are ready.
After putting the dishes on the plate, Chen Jun estimated that Mr. Liu might not be able to finish it, so he didn't plan to cook any other dishes.
After all, the medicinal wine is the point, and the dishes are just used as a side dish.
"Aunt Rong, why don't you try it first?" Chen Jun looked at Aunt Rong beside him and asked with a smile.
I think this is the first time you’ve seen snow vegetables fried with lard?
Aunt Rong didn't hesitate and picked up the chopsticks to take a bite.
After tasting it carefully, he commented: "It tastes good, but... a little salty."
"Hahaha, it's just right that it's a little salty, it goes well with alcohol!"
"I'll go take it to Master Liu."
When they arrived at the inner room, Chen Jun found that Mr. Liu looked a little worse. He wondered if it was because of the coughing just now.
"Master Liu, the appetizers are here."
Putting the plate on the table, Chen Jun personally helped Mr. Liu up.
"You stinky boy, you just fried me a plate of pickled vegetables?" Master Liu scolded with a weak smile, "I'm almost gone, and you didn't even bother to make me something delicious. You just gave me a plate of fried pickled vegetables to fool me."
"I am a respectable person after all. If this gets out, people will think that my family is down and out and can't even afford a decent meal... Let go, kid. I can still move."
