In the kitchen, Shuiqing was completely unaware that she was being hailed as a role model.
She is carefully preparing lunch.
The large iron pot at the very back is used to make braised dishes.
Put pig's head, pig's ears, pig's tongue, and pig's large intestine into the braising liquid. Add duck necks, duck heads, chicken feet, duck feet, chicken wings, and duck wings halfway through the process. When it's almost done, add dried tofu and boiled eggs, and then simmer over low heat until the flavors are absorbed.
Rice was cooked in a large iron pot in the middle, and eggplant, sausage, salted duck eggs, braised pork with preserved mustard greens, and steamed pork with rice flour were placed on a wooden steamer rack on top. Fortunately, the earthen stove and iron pot were large, and the eggplant, sausage, and salted duck eggs did not take up much space.
Otherwise, if you use a rice cooker, you won't be able to steam it no matter what.
The outermost large iron pot is responsible for preparing the dishes fresh.
We've invited the Ding family to lunch, so it can't be stingy.
She realized that the Ding family had no shortage of money or food; what they lacked was the skill to cook. They couldn't build a good relationship with the Ding family by giving gifts; if they wanted to stay in touch regularly, food was the only way!
Shui Qing first made stewed pork ribs.
The spare ribs are baby back ribs. After blanching, they are stir-fried until golden brown on both sides. Boiling water is poured in, and the soup immediately turns milky white. Yam cut into chunks is added, and the soup is transferred to a clay pot and simmered on a small red clay stove.
The pig's trotters were braised.
After blanching, first stir-fry the sugar to caramelize it. Once it has color, add the other ingredients and stir-fry until fragrant. Then pour in boiling water and finally add the soybeans that were soaked overnight. Transfer the mixture to a small red clay stove and simmer slowly.
I have to say, having plenty of charcoal is really great; it makes stewing, boiling water, and grilling incredibly convenient.
Once the meat and main dishes are done, the rest can be quickly stir-fried, and the water will be ready in no time.
Mrs. Hu, who was tending the stove, stood up, wiped her hands, and asked with a smile, "Is there anything special about the people who are hosting us today? I noticed you weren't this nervous about the Bai family."
Qing'er usually prepares a lot of dishes, which are very plentiful and impeccable. Today's preparation is also very plentiful, but she just feels that Qing'er is a little nervous.
Shuiqing didn't dare to reveal that this was the person her younger brother liked, fearing that if things didn't go well, it would damage the girl's reputation.
However, to prevent her mother from giving a bad impression by not taking it seriously, she emphasized the good qualities of the Ding family.
For example, Dafang: Yesterday, for the first time, delivered two large jars of honey to my door.
Enthusiastic: Although the Ding family lives at the very back of Shanshui Village, where floods pose little threat, they still braved the torrential rain to build a dam.
Renyi: The villagers suffered from mushroom poisoning, and the last time Fan Jin's brother-in-law's family, except for Zhao Di, were all poisoned, were all treated with herbs provided by the Ding family.
When Hu's mother heard the rest, she realized that the person knew medicine and was filled with respect!
In the village, people revered two things: reading and medicine. Medicine was even ranked higher, since everyone could rely on it.
Especially since my daughter lives in the same village, I'm even more eager to build a good relationship with her, in case her family ever needs my help if they ever have a minor health issue.
He was even more excited than Shui Qing and went to prepare tea, pastries, and candied fruits.
When Ding Heli and his family of three arrived with gifts, they were greeted by a lively and bustling scene.
Outside the courtyard, people were lining up to receive their share of pork, all beaming with joy.
In the courtyard, people lined up to register, each one full of hope.
It swept away the gloom and sorrow of the past few days.
Especially noteworthy is that the person registering the document with a suspended wrist and a pen was a girl!
Ding Heli and Qin Yilin exchanged a glance.
Doctors need to carefully examine patients and prescribe medicine. Being able to recognize and write is a basic skill. When they were young, their families hired tutors to teach them.
When Jiajia arrived, her family suffered a disaster. If the two of them were to hire a tutor to give Jiajia her early education in this remote little village, it would be more sensational than an earthquake!
