So, Ning Jing decided to kill an old hen today, pluck its feathers, and remove its internal organs.
Looking inside, there was a string of eggs the size of grapes, and I was careful not to break them.
Then cut it into small pieces, put it directly into a pot of cold water, add Shaoxing wine and ginger, and then start cooking over high heat.
Once the water boils, turn the heat down to low and simmer slowly.
It's still early, so by noon the chicken will definitely be tender and soft!
After cleaning all the chicken giblets, I rubbed them with salt to remove the fishy smell and set them aside. I took a pickled vegetable from the jar in the backyard and prepared to stir-fry it with the chicken giblets so that I could have an extra bowl of vegetables.
Since there's stewed old hen in the fish tank, Ning Jing should braise the fish!
Then go to the vegetable garden in the backyard and pick a bunch of greens. Chop them up and stir-fry them with just a little salt and MSG, and you're all done.
After Ning Jing turned the fire down to a simmer, she handed over the task of watching the fire on the stove to Xiu Chun.
I'll clean Xiuhua and Tiedan's rooms myself, so that when they come back, they can sleep more comfortably on the kang (heated brick bed) at night.
After tidying up the room, I went back to the kitchen, but without lifting the pot lid, I just bent down and smelled it.
The enticing aroma of chicken soup wafted from the gaps around the pot lid and entered Ning Jing's nose; it smelled absolutely wonderful.
The old hens raised in the countryside are the best. You don't need to add anything. Just stew them like this and add some salt, and they're incredibly delicious!
Because old hen soup was simmering in the pot, the copper pot next to the stove kept making a hissing sound.
Ning Jing poured all the hot water from the copper pot into the thermos.
In their family, not only Ning Jing drinks water, but even plain water must be boiled before drinking.
Therefore, everyone in the family has developed the habit of drinking hot water.
Someone passing by Fu Hongxing's house from a distance couldn't help but sniff the air.
"Hey...can you guys smell it?"
Hearing that person say that, the person next to him also followed his action and took a big drag.
Who's stewing chicken?
After saying that, he clicked his tongue several times.
You should know that ever since I learned that the chickens raised in Xishan Village lay eggs very frequently, almost one a day, there has never been a situation where they don't lay eggs (due to a break in updates during vacation).
Because each household cannot raise more chickens than the number of people in the household, a family with a large population can collect more than a pound of eggs in a day.
Those families with few members rely on these few chickens to bring some income and nutrition to their households every day.
How could anyone dare to just "snip" a hen that's happily laying eggs and kill it?
"Who else could it be, look..."
The person who was sniffing loudly in front nodded towards Fu Hongxing's house.
After saying that, he couldn't help but purse his lips.
To be honest, Fu Hongxing's wife is really willing to spend money.
Today is a day off, and Fu Hongxing's two younger siblings will definitely come back from the county town.
Every time they come back, Ning Jing will cook some delicious food.
He'd passed by several times already and smelled the aroma of meat!
This time, they even killed the laying hen. I wonder what Ning Jing, that woman, was thinking?
The person who originally asked the question didn't even notice the sour look on his face.
I only heard it was Fu Hongxing's house, and then I suddenly realized, "Oh, it's his house."
No wonder, no wonder! I heard that Fu Hongxing is a director in the coal mine!
