Raising an old hen for two and a half years was indeed not just talk. Chen Chunhua put enough water in the big pot, stuffed enough firewood, turned up the fire, and stewed it for more than an hour, but it still couldn't be cooked through.
This is the case with old hen meat. Even if it is stewed in a later pressure cooker for an hour, the meat is still very firm and chewy.
The oil soup was golden yellow, and the sunset light coming through the kitchen window shone into the pot, reflecting colorful light.
Following Liang Shengdi's instructions, she scooped out a large bowl of chicken soup and placed it in the cupboard alongside the chicken blood she had just cooked. Chen Chunhua just hoped it wouldn't go bad tomorrow. Actually, judging by everyone's current thinking, even if it did go slightly bad, they would probably still eat it.
But Chen Chunhua had lived a good life, so she might not be able to eat rotten food.
Add fresh mushrooms picked from your own mushroom house and the scarce vegetables in the backyard to the remaining chicken soup, sprinkle some salt on it, cover the pot and simmer for a few minutes, then it is ready to be served.
This authentic farm-made chicken soup, made with free-range chicken and green, pollution-free vegetables, has sold for at least three figures in farmhouse restaurants over the past few decades.
She boiled the seven eggs today, peeled them and threw them into the chicken soup, then served them out together.
There was a large basin on the table, which exuded a rich and delicious aroma, as if the whole room was coated with a layer of oily sheen. Liang Shengdi felt that she was almost fainting from happiness just by smelling the smell.
Chen Chunhua took a big spoon and gave everyone a spoonful of soup, a bowl of soup and half a bowl of oil.
According to what the young people said later, it is full of purine and unhealthy... But now, everyone is already lacking in oil and water, so this is the best tonic.
"It's still a little hot, drink it slowly. The soup from the old hen is the most fragrant."
She also pulled off two chicken legs and put them into Liang Shengdi's bowl.
"Here! Mom, these chicken legs are all yours, eat as much as you want!"
Liang Shengdi just stared at the chicken legs in her bowl. After a while, she picked up one and took a big bite, then another bite.
That's the taste! That's the taste!
This fragrance is exactly the same as the one she smelled when she was a child! The taste of this chicken leg is exactly the same as the day she got married!
The chicken leg was originally quite big, but Liang Shengdi ate it so fiercely that it was gone in just a few bites. She even chewed the leg bone until it became crumbs before spitting it out.
Liang Shengdi suddenly burst into tears, with half a chicken leg bone stuffed in her mouth. She cried like a child, and the louder and harder she cried, the more she cried.
The other people were still slowly drinking their soup, but when she started crying, everyone was stunned.
Lin Shuying, sitting next to Liang Shengdi, quickly put down her bowl and tugged at her brother Lin Shugan's sleeve. They were the best friends with their grandmother and knew her best.
Her crying made Lin Shuying wonder if her grandmother regretted sharing the meat with them.
"Grandma...please don't cry..." Lin Shuying originally wanted to use her own clothes to wipe her grandmother's tears, but when she pulled them, she found some chicken poop stuck on them. She quickly put them down and pulled up the corner of Liang Shengdi's own clothes to wipe her tears.
"Grandma, don't cry... I, I don't want to eat anymore, I'll leave it all for you..."
Lin Shugan pushed the half bowl of soup in his bowl over and said, "Grandma, I haven't had much of a sip. I'll give it all to you..."
The third brother blinked his eyes, quickly lowered his head and took another sip. Hiss, it was so hot!
"Grandma, I'll give you mine too..." He lowered his head and took another sip.
Lin Shumei refused and wanted to pour the liquid into her bowl, but Chen Chunhua stopped her immediately, "Don't you want your tongue anymore!"
Liang Shengdi was still crying, her tears flowing like a faucet that couldn't be turned off. The corner of her clothes that Lin Shuying was holding was soaked, and she was unable to wipe away her tears.
Lin Guoqing was a little helpless. "Mom, what's wrong with you? Is there a bone stuck in your throat or is the chicken leg not tasty? If you really want to eat the whole one by yourself, that's fine. We won't fight with you, just eat it!"
Liang Shengdi was still crying, her face covered with tears and snot. Lin Shuying had to direct the second child to get Liang Shengdi's own handkerchief to wipe her tears.
Finally, when she had cried enough, she spat out the half chicken bone, took the handkerchief from Lin Shuying's hand, and wiped her nose and tears with sobs.
"No, no need, you guys eat, everyone eat, I, I have enough to eat, I have enough to eat..." As she spoke, tears began to fall again, and she wiped them away with a handkerchief.
She suddenly didn't want to eat the chicken leg in the bowl anymore, so she took it and put it into Lin Shuying's bowl.
"Eat, big girl. You need to go to school and nourish your brain. Eat more and study hard. When you earn money in the future, buy a chicken for grandma."
Lin Shuying blinked, a little bit unable to believe that her grandma would give her a chicken leg to eat one day. She turned her head and looked at Lin Shugan, then looked up at her parents and asked them with her eyes,
Can you take this chicken leg?
Chen Chunhua and Lin Guoqing were also somewhat bewildered. Liang Shengdi's request for meat was more terrifying than red rain from the sky. Lin Guoqing cautiously asked Liang Shengdi,
"Mom, are you really feeling unwell? If you are, tell me. We still have money to go to the hospital."
Liang Shengdi glared at him, "You're the one who's feeling unwell! I'm fine!" Then she pointed at the chicken with her chopsticks, "I want the chicken breast. Tear off a piece for me."
Chen Chunhua quickly tore off a large piece of chicken breast for her and put it in her bowl.
Liang Shengdi ate a mouthful of chicken breast and a mouthful of chicken soup, and she ate it very deliciously. While eating, she urged everyone to
"Eat quickly, you can get full just by looking at me!"
Everyone then picked up their bowls again and sipped the soup. Chen Chunhua nodded at Lin Shuying, telling her to eat the leg.
Lin Shuying reached out and tore the meat off the chicken leg into several pieces, dividing them as evenly as possible among her three younger brothers and sisters, while she gnawed on the remaining meat on the chicken bones.
Lin Shumei refused to share the chicken soup with her grandmother, but she became unhappy when she saw her sister gnawing on the bones. She pinched the chicken with her greasy little hands, slid down the chair, came to Lin Shuying, and forced it into her mouth, forcing her to eat it.
Liang Shengdi drank the chicken soup and asked Lin Guoqing to tear a chicken wing for her to chew. She rolled her eyes while chewing.
"Don't think I didn't see you because I was crying. Little girl, you didn't even want to give me the soup just now, but now you're diligently bringing meat to your sister."
Lin Shumei returned to her mother's side after she made sure her sister had swallowed the chicken thigh she had given her, and she did not forget to retort to her grandmother.
"Sister, good, grandma, bad."
The whole room burst into laughter.
Liang Shengdi: ??? Who is bad?
"I'm bad? Then don't eat it. I won't share this chicken with you!"
After hearing this, Lin Shumei rushed forward and hugged her bowl. If Chen Chunhua hadn't been quick to steady it, the soup would have spilled out.
"No! I have to eat!"
"No, I won't give you any!"
“I want to eat!”
“No!”
