After the two male educated youth left, Zhou Yu and Li Jinfeng explained, "These two are student educated youth who came here this summer. They have never done any housework at home, let alone cooking."
Every time I cook, it feels like a battle.
They were naturally happy that someone took the initiative to take on this troublesome task this time.
Li Jinfeng took a knife and began to scrape the scales and cut open the belly of the fish on the chopping board. In comparison, her movements were indeed much more skillful.
Zhou Yu helped her pick and wash the vegetables, while Lu Jianguo sat at the stove, controlling the heat.
Finally, I made a boiled fish fillet, a tofu and minced meat soup, stir-fried shredded radish, some green vegetable moss, and five steamed sausages.
There were more than 20 educated youths, plus themselves, so the portions of the dishes had to be very careful. For each dish, they had to make three bowls to make it enough.
When Li Jinfeng was cooking, the aroma of the food wafted out of the kitchen.
The male and female educated youth who were originally in the educated youth dormitory smelled the scent and thought there was something wrong with their sense of smell, so they all came out to look for the source of the fragrance.
"It smells so good! Is someone cooking?"
Most of the educated youth were not good at cooking. Those who could do it could only cook for a day.
If you eat it every ten days or so, no matter how good the taste is, you will forget it.
In addition, the food made by Li Jinfeng was really delicious, and everyone's appetite was aroused.
"No, I have to go check it out!"
Some people came directly to the kitchen with their lunch boxes.
When the male educated youth saw Li Jinfeng cooking in the kitchen, they felt like they had seen a fairy, a fairy who could cook.
The 'Fairy' fried the dishes one by one, and then Zhou Yu brought them to the table.
The staple food is brown rice, cooked with sweet potato cubes and cornmeal. When the lid of the pot is opened, the aroma rushes up.
Everyone was surprised. They usually cooked it this way, so why was there no fragrance?
"Everyone, don't just stand there, sit down and eat! I don't know if it will suit your taste, so Xiaoyu, Comrade Lu and I just made some casual dishes." Li Jinfeng invited everyone to take a seat.
The small kitchen became crowded immediately with the addition of more than twenty people.
But it's winter and the New Year, so it seems lively because there are many people around.
Li Jinfeng and Lu Jianguo always bring their own lunch boxes and chopsticks when they go out. Even if they don't have them, Li Jinfeng can take out a new set from her space. Anyway, now that Lu Jianguo knows about her space, she is not afraid of scaring him by taking things out.
"It tastes so good!" The female educated youth who was the first to taste the food narrowed her eyes into a straight line.
While eating, he shouted: "Mom, I haven't eaten such delicious food for a long time! Sister Zhou Yu, you should have come earlier. If you had come earlier, I wouldn't have to be so miserable!"
The educated youth present were once the apple of their families' eyes. Someone would bring them food and water. But when they came here, they had to learn to do everything by themselves. They also had to learn to go to the fields and do farm work like the other team members.
Not to mention the bitterness, the only food you can eat is the half-cooked food you made yourself, or the food that is cooked but tastes terrible.
Everyone was busy eating, even Zhou Yu was no exception.
She has been here for more than half a year, and what she misses most is the taste of the food cooked by Li Jinfeng.
"Brother Jianguo, you eat too!" Li Jinfeng saw that Lu Jianguo didn't move his chopsticks much and took very little staple food. She guessed that Lu Jianguo was sympathizing with these children.
