"Come on, everyone, come and eat! This beef is sliced thinly, so you can eat it after just a quick dip in the pot. It'll get tough if you wait too long." Su Hua turned around and called out, already deftly scooping up a large mouthful of the beef that had just been dipped in the pot and handing it to Su Bai Shi.
Instead of taking the bowl, Madam Su quickly shoved the chopsticks and spoon into the hands of the three Su brothers. "Hua'er, you eat by yourself. Let your brothers do the cooking. There's no reason for you to just sit around and eat all day without doing any work!"
"Yes, yes, Mother is right. This kind of cooking with oil and smoke should be done by us men." Su Erhu smiled and took the chopsticks. He quickly scooped out all the remaining beef from the pot and distributed it to everyone, not forgetting to ask which parts needed to be cooked for a long time and which needed to be blanched quickly.
Seeing this, Su Hua was happy to have some peace and quiet. She picked up her bowl and sat down by the stove to eat. The wild beef was chewy and tender, with tendons in every bite. After eating a few bites of beef and drinking a bowl of soup, she felt completely refreshed.
As she ate what was in her bowl, she started eyeing what was in the pot again. She smiled at Su Erhu, who was eating and adding food to the pot, and said, "Second Brother, the beef intestines, lungs, and heart can be cooked a little longer, but the tripe, you don't need to throw it in the pot. Just blanch it briefly with a strainer!"
Upon hearing this, Su Erhu paused abruptly while scalding the tripe, and instead used a claw spatula, scalding it while counting the pieces.
"One, two, three, four... eight."
As soon as he counted to eight, he immediately looked up and glanced at Su Hua.
“Yes, that’s perfect.” Su Hua nodded with a smile, her eyes crinkling with delight as she looked at the perfectly cooked, crispy tripe.
Compared to modern tripe dishes where there are only a few slices of the real thing and the rest is ice, this is incredibly generous!
The Su family members were all gathered around the pot, busy cooking meat. The only sounds in the kitchen were chewing meat and slurping broth.
The two white siblings on the ground were also happily eating beef in their respective large bowls. Considering that they couldn't handle too much spice, Su Hua initially scooped out several large plates of cooked meat, rinsed it in water, and gave it to them.
And Little Black, at this moment, was no longer listless as before. Instead, he was wagging his tail and eating, but while eating, he subconsciously moved closer to Big White, always keeping a distance from the big white tiger.
As for Madam Qian, who was hiding in the west room, she didn't come out. However, she ate all the dishes of meat that Su Erhu brought over, leaving only a few empty plates.
