The diced potatoes in the pot have been cooked until soft, and the homemade konjac tofu has also absorbed the spicy soup.
Li Xiaocao asked them to sit down, handed them bowls and chopsticks, and looking at the authentic and delicious farm dishes, Jiang Yan was dazzled by the aroma.
After getting the bowl and chopsticks, I couldn't wait to pick up a piece of potato and put it in my mouth. It melted in my mouth, and it was spicy and fragrant. Wow, it was so delicious.
The chewy konjac tofu blends perfectly with the tender chicken, and the unique taste makes you unable to stop eating it.

Seeing that she liked it, Li Xiaocao poured a glass of homemade rice wine, "Xiaoyan, do you want to drink? It's not alcoholic."
Jiang Yan remained skeptical, "Aunt, I'm afraid you'll faint if you see the wind outside. We have to go back. I won't drink anymore. Next time you come to the county town, we'll treat you to a meal at the restaurant. Sister-in-law has also provided bayberry wine, and we'll drink with you."
Li Xiaocao knew that what she said was polite, but she was still very happy because it meant that Jiang Yan treated them as relatives.
She said with a smile: "Oh, why do we need to go to a restaurant? Even if we just eat some boiled cabbage, we will be happy. I didn't know you were coming, otherwise I would have prepared more dishes."
Jiang Yan sighed, "Aunt, there are so many dishes here, how can we finish them all? It's freezing cold, and I've kept you busy all morning. Your cooking skills are really good."
Li Xiaocao's wrinkles deepened as she praised him. "Your little mouth must have been filled with honey, how come it's so sweet? You're making me almost drift.
My cooking skills are not as good as your mother-in-law's. I learned how to stir-fry chicken with firewood from her."
Miao Xiuying said appropriately: "Sister-in-law, I am not as authentic as you. I am only half-baked in everything I learn. It is enough for me to make a living."
"Don't be so modest. Everyone knows that you have good skills. I learned that from a master chef. I am lucky to have benefited from that."
Miao Xiuying glared at her and said, "Stop talking, or my tail will be lifted up to the sky."
The two of them were chatting back and forth, praising each other for business, and the others were also very excited.
The atmosphere in the room is so warm.
After the meal, Lu Li and Lu Yan helped to clean up. Next to the firewood, the potatoes roasted by Miao Lei were also cooked.
He used a bamboo stick to scrape off the black ash on the surface, revealing the orange-yellow rice crust. The chili powder was ground in a stone mortar, and added with five-spice powder, star anise, and Sichuan peppercorns. It was extremely fragrant.
Jiang Yan was not hungry originally, as she ate two. Song Jingtian was also full, so Lu Li took her out to digest the food.
Hu Xueer sat aside, listening to the elders' nagging. Miao Xiuhua asked her, "The fourth and fifth children already have children, and you two don't have any plans to have a baby!"
Miao Xiuli threw the melon seed shell in her hand at her and said unhappily, "What? You have reached menopause. Whether she wants to have a baby or not affects your eating, drinking, and defecation. As a young person, who doesn't want to have more fun for a few more years?
If I had this capital, I wouldn't even want to get married. Do you know how painful it is to give birth to a child?"
As she said that, she looked at Hu Xueer with a smile and said, "Your third aunt has eaten too much salt and has nothing to do. You two are working hard on your careers. It's okay to have a baby later. You can guarantee your own finances, and then the baby will have a better life in the future.
Look at the kids in the city and the country. They are brought up in two different environments and they are different. I think the kids in the city are smarter.
Aren’t there a few college students who are from poor families and have been raised by those generations? We don’t have the conditions and have never been able to study.”
Hu Xueer really liked listening to her talk, "Fourth Aunt, Brother Yan and I also have plans to have a baby, it just depends on when we get pregnant, while my parents are still young and can help me out.
I am also busy at school, either preparing lessons or attending meetings. I have to get promoted next year, and Brother Yan also has his own job.”
Miao Xiuhua was a little surprised. "Didn't Lu Yan sell his job to He Miao? He found a new job on the island."
Lu Li praised her appropriately, "Aunt, you don't know this, right? My brother was originally an unemployed vagrant, and it was thanks to my sister-in-law's family that they helped him find a job in the factory.
He only gets a few dozen yuan a month in salary, plus other welfare subsidies. If he hadn't married such a good wife, none of the benefits would have fallen on him.
Marry a virtuous wife, you've got a treasure, right? I think he should worship her, my sister-in-law will bring him good luck."
Lu Li's mouth was so dead that it made the other people laugh.
Hu Xueer said with a smile: "Xiao Li, please stop embarrassing me. It's Brother Yan who is capable. Otherwise, even if my dad said he would do it, people wouldn't buy it."
Lu Yan took his hand and patted it, "Xue'er, he is right, you bring me good luck! If it weren't for my father-in-law, would I have a job so quickly? I would still have to eat gigolo meals at home.
By then, others will laugh at you for marrying a useless man."
Lu Li's face fell into a ball, and he said unhappily: "Lu Yan, who are you talking about? What do you mean useless at home? Housewives are the most tired.
I think you need to change your chauvinism, you only say things that are unpleasant to the ear."
Those men work outside and act like bosses when they come back. They think that women do nothing at home and have nothing to do, so they have to take good care of them.
Women at home take care of children and do housework, and their hands are rubbed raw just from washing clothes, after all, not everyone has a washing machine at home.
Lu Yan raised his hands in surrender, "Okay, I was wrong. Housewives deserve respect."
Lu Li said as a matter of course: "Don't think it's hard for men, it's harder for women. You have time to rest when you do physical work, but when women start to work, it's really endless.
I'll let him take care of your baby for a few days, and you'll be obedient, sister-in-law. When you have a baby in the future, leave it to him to take care of. You'll see if he'll still be so calm and composed then."
Hu Xueer thought his suggestion was very good. Lu Yan felt a chill on his back and wanted to slap himself twice. Why couldn't he control his mouth?
Lu Li is a man with a lot of bad intentions. If anyone tries to offend him, he will poke your eyes out.
Song Jingtian's indulgence towards him was without any bottom line. The term "little darling husband" was not given for nothing.
Jiang Yan watched them talking to each other with great interest, and the food in her hands was peeled by Lu Xiao for her.
