The children were intrigued by the mention of barbecue, and Fan Jin's dark eyes also sparkled with curiosity.
Unlike the children's cheers, he simply asked obediently, "What do you need me to do?"
Shui Qing considered the ingredients needed for the barbecue and said one by one, "First, prepare the ingredients."
She looked at the children of different ages surrounding her. The only advantage of having many children was that there were more people to do the work!
Moreover, they are all people who are used to doing manual labor, and they are extremely quick and efficient.
She first said to Fan Jin, "There are many of us, let's roast two rabbits, otherwise it might not be enough to eat. You are in charge of cleaning and preparing them."
It's mainly because rabbits taste good.
Secondly, they raise a lot of rabbits.
Since a few days ago, they have been laying off pups one after another, with forty or fifty pups of all sizes already, and several more are likely to lay pups soon.
Rabbits reproduce very quickly and reach market weight in a short time.
Although most of them are still small and not ready for market, it doesn't matter. We have the twenty fat rabbits we bought last time, and we can always add bigger rabbits when we have the chance.
Later, the big rabbits have baby rabbits, and the baby rabbits grow up and have baby rabbits again... and then they trade with the villagers for genuine local old hens.
It can completely achieve freedom for both the hen and the rabbit!
"Okay." Fan Jin obeyed without any objection and did as instructed.
Shui Qing instructed Fan Jiang: "Go and cut down a bamboo stalk, split it into thin bamboo skewers, and we'll use them to skewer various kinds of meat later."
Fan Jiang was strong, but he didn't like to use his brain and only liked to work. When given a task, he would simply grab a machete and run up the bamboo mountain.
He needs to hurry up and come back quickly, so as not to miss the barbecue tonight!
Although he had never eaten barbecue, he had eaten roasted potatoes and roasted cicadas.
Both are delicious!
Xinghui went to wash pork belly, mutton and other meats, while Bai Ziqian went to the vegetable garden to pick lettuce, scallions, garlic, fresh ginger and cilantro.
Xinghui was worried that Bai Ziqian wouldn't wash the vegetables properly, so she asked him to go to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables, a job that didn't require much skill.
Bai Ziqian was deeply moved.
Then I firmly refused!
"It's cold, I'll go wash the meat, you go pick the vegetables!"
Xinghui: ...You big idiot, don't you know there's such a thing as hot water?
Now their family makes rice wine every day. Fermentation of rice wine requires temperature, so they have built three stoves in the distillery to heat it from time to time.
The large iron pot contains a continuous supply of hot water.
However, thinking that Bai Ziqian meant well, and that refusing would hurt his feelings, Xinghui silently swallowed the words she was about to say.
I picked up the bamboo basket from the corner of the wall and headed to the vegetable garden.
Bai Ziqian felt that he was a really good older brother!
Fan Jiang: ...Why don't you switch with me?
Cutting bamboo and splitting bamboo skewers are no easy tasks!
Ling Ran was in charge of cutting the meat over there.
Cut the cleaned pork belly and mutton into equal-sized pieces.
Fanhe and Fanhu are responsible for skewering all the meat and vegetables that can be skewered.
Shuiqing felt that she was doing the most technically demanding part—no one else could replace her.
First, prepare cold dishes.
Yes, how can you have barbecue without cold dishes?
After all, barbecue isn't something you can grill right away, nor can you keep having food all the time.
Therefore, cold dishes are indispensable.
Century egg and tofu, braised peanuts, cilantro and dried tofu, refreshing wood ear mushrooms, and spinach with egg crepe—I made two portions of each and placed them on either side of the long table so that everyone could easily reach for the food.
Next are staple foods.
