Everyone in the family was working hard to prepare a sumptuous lunch, and they all used their cooking skills to make one dish after another.
Ning Xiyue’s main task was to prepare the hot pot base. She made both a clear soup pot and a red soup pot. When the red soup base was fried, the aroma filled the air, which immediately aroused the appetite.
The aroma of Ning's father's fried shredded venison makes people salivate and stimulates their appetite to the peak.
Yun Xiulan scooped a large bowl of bone soup and brought it to the table, happily shouting, "Clean up and let's eat."
"good."
Ning Xiyue and Ning Qingyuan helped serve the dishes to the table.
Stir-fried shredded pork, bone soup, steamed venison with rice flour, crispy venison meat, braised venison chops, two constantly boiling hot pots, and many ingredients for hot pot.
A table full of dishes.
The meat of a whole venison was not used up, and there was still a lot left.
After everyone sat down at the table, Yun Xiulan clapped her hands with a smile on her face and said, "Let's eat."
After hearing this, they all picked up their chopsticks.
When Ning Xiyue picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat, a light bulb went off in her head and she suddenly remembered that her elder brother who had gone to the army this morning had not arrived yet.
"Wait a minute, Mom, and Big Brother."
"Oh yeah, I forgot about your older brother. Let's wait a while."
Yun Xiulan looked at the hot dishes on the table with regret, reluctantly put down her chopsticks, and swallowed her saliva: "Wait for your eldest brother for five minutes. If it's not five minutes, let him do it himself. We can't let this table of food lose its taste."
Anyway, there is still a lot of meat there, and the boss can fry it himself.
Ning Xiyue:......
It’s definitely my biological mother.
Don't think she doesn't know that mom just wants to eat the meat cooked by dad as soon as possible, and the loss of taste is just an excuse.
Fortunately, after just two minutes, the gate outside the yard was knocked.
Ning Xiyue only told her eldest brother the address, and he knew who was outside without even thinking.
"I'll go open the door. It should be my eldest brother who's back."
She hurried over and saw Brother Ning standing outside the door.
"Brother, come in quickly. We are waiting for you to eat. We have a great meal today."
Ning Xiyue grabbed Brother Ning's arm, closed the door, and ran inside.
She was afraid that her mother couldn't wait any longer.
"The boss is here. Come wash your hands and come over for dinner." Ning Hai called out to him when he saw him come in. He wanted to urge him and he didn't want his wife to go hungry.
"good."
Ning Qingzhi quickly fetched water to wash his hands and then sat down at the dining table.
Ning Qingyuan had already placed his bowl and chopsticks on the table for him.
Seeing her eldest son sitting down, Yun Xiulan picked up her chopsticks again, looked at her family and shouted, "Grab your chopsticks and start eating."
At the command, everyone at the table picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
Ning Xiyue picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the tender stir-fried shredded pork.
It is spicy, fresh and fragrant, not at all dry, the heat and time are well controlled, the meat is very flavorful, and it is suitable for eating with white rice.
Ning Xiyue simply filled a bowl with white rice and ate it.
It was the first time for her to start eating hotpot before she even started eating it. It was because her father added pickled peppers and pickled ginger to the shredded pork, which was very flavorful and appetizing.
After eating the shredded pork, I picked up other dishes and found that every dish was excellent.
The steamed pork with rice flour is fragrant, the crispy pork is crunchy, the bone soup is delicious, and the braised venison chops fall off the bones with just one sip.
After finishing a bowl of rice, Ning Xiyue started eating hot pot.
Just put your chopsticks into the spicy hot pot, it’s spicy and delicious.
Ning Qingyuan's face was flushed as he ate. He picked up the food with his chopsticks a little faster than usual, and he was praising the food all the time.
"Today's meal is the best I've ever had, sister. The hot pot you prepared is still as delicious as ever. The dishes cooked by dad and mom are also delicious. I am so happy."
"It's delicious because of the ingredients. This venison is fresh and grown on wild grass in the mountains. The meat doesn't have any fishy smell at all."
Ning Hai took off his foggy glasses, wiped them, and put them aside before continuing, "You can have such a sumptuous and delicious meal thanks to Yueyue. Remember Yueyue's kindness after eating the meat."
Yun Xiulan took a sip of soup and continued, "That's right, Second Brother, you must take good care of your sister in the countryside."
"I know." Ning Qingyuan chewed the bone, mumbled two words, and chewed the bone seriously.
As soon as Ning Qingzhi sat down and started eating, he realized that the venison feast they were having today was made from the deer his sister had shot.
This meal was also prepared by the whole family.
He picked up the soup in the bowl and thanked his family, feeling deeply apologetic. He was the only one who didn't cook anything for this meal and just came back to eat the ready-made food.
They are all a loving family, no one would mind, and all they responded to him was to eat, eat, eat.
Everyone worked hard.
Because it is a hot pot, charcoal can be burned underneath, so your whole body will feel warm after eating it even in the winter.
No one had anything to do in the afternoon, so the whole family just continued to eat around the table. They didn't leave the table and took a break after eating before eating again. The whole family agreed to eat until the evening.
I’m going to have a good meal today!
After the first round of eating, Ning Hai and his wife used the book brought by Ning Qingyuan to evaluate the three siblings.
Ning Hai took his high school math textbook and asked about theorems, while Yun Xiulan took his Chinese textbook and told them the texts they needed to memorize.
Ning Qingzhi, who came back later, was unaware of the situation and listened to the questions with a confused look on his face. How come he started asking questions while eating?
Fortunately, he had been studying every day since his recent injury, which allowed him to calm down quickly.
As expected, all three of them answered the questions correctly. Sometimes the brothers stumbled in their answers, but in the end they answered every question asked by the couple correctly.
"It seems you all studied the book seriously. I'd like to give special praise to your younger sister. She answered every question quickly and well. She has a solid foundation. You two should work hard."
Ning Hai closed the book with great satisfaction, and finally looked at Ning Qingzhi:
"Especially the boss, you should never give up studying. Your higher education level will make you more competitive when you're promoted. If you encounter any military academy training opportunities, your chances of being selected will be greater. You'll be able to seize the opportunity when it comes."
"I understand, Dad." Ning Qingzhi nodded solemnly.
Ning Xiyue admired her father very much after listening to his words. He was really far-sighted. For some reasons, people in this era generally did not attach importance to education, but their family attached great importance to it and had been implementing it.
It's no surprise that their family lives a good life. The parents know how to plan ahead, the children work hard and listen to their parents, and the whole family works together to become better versions of themselves.
We have to admit that knowledge changes destiny, knowledge broadens people's horizons, and knowledge makes people enlightened, especially in this special era.
After seeing her husband finish speaking, Yun Xiulan scooped up the meat from the pot with a spoon and poured a spoonful into each person's bowl: "Now that you've rested enough, let's continue eating."
