"Later, when I opened the package, I saw your name written inside and realized it was yours! By the way, where did your friend from Lingnan come from?" Zhao Mingcheng looked curious.
"Do you still remember Dr. Zhou Jingzhou?" Li Jinfeng asked.
"Of course I remember. He was the surgeon in charge of your master Yang Dajun's orthopedic surgery. He also helped you... Anyway, the one in the provincial capital, she also put in a lot of effort."
Zhao Mingcheng was well aware that Li Jinfeng's uncle came from a poor family.
So he knows exactly what to say and what not to say.
"I helped her a little. The person in Nanling is her younger brother. She asked her brother to send me some Nanling specialties." Li Jinfeng said.
"I looked at the package and it was full of salted fish, and they were salted fish from the seaside," said Zhao Mingcheng.
Nanling is close to the sea, so it is normal that there are abundant seafood.
Moreover, Li Jinfeng wanted to exchange the local specialties with Zhou Quan from the very beginning.
"Salted fish is great, no need to add salt!" Li Jinfeng said with a smile.
Zhao Mingcheng felt that there was some truth in it and nodded in agreement, "You're right!"
"When you go back later, bring a few for Aunt Guihua, so she can have another dish, right?" Li Jinfeng said.
In fact, in this day and age, not to mention salted fish, even stinky fish will have a long line of people lining up to have a bite.
After all, it’s not easy to eat meat.
The country people have no money and cannot afford it.
City dwellers have money and tickets, but the supply cannot keep up.
In a family like the Li family, Li Jinfeng brought out pig's trotters. In other families, that is something they would not even dare to think about all year round.
Zhao Mingcheng helped Li Jinfeng take the salted fish to the storage room in the backyard, and did not put it in Li Jinfeng's room.
Of course, it cannot be placed in the kitchen. If a greedy wild cat steals the fish, it would be a big loss.
Li Jinfeng planned to wait for Li Dahu to come back and ask Li Dahu to keep the food and take out some when he wanted to eat.
When Zhao Mingcheng arrived, it was neither early nor late, and it was not yet time to cook dinner.
However, Li Jinfeng still started preparing dinner early.
Her mother stewed pig's trotters with soybeans. She cut half of the pig's trotters and stewed two or three taels of soybeans.
As for their own food, there were still seven ounces left from a pound of pork ribs, and Li Jinfeng took it upon herself to cook them all.
Then there was the salted fish soup. When she was making the salted fish soup, she covered her nose the whole time. She almost rushed out several times, but fortunately she held herself back.
When Li Jinfeng's rice is ready, it's earlier than usual.
She discussed it with her family and, considering that Zhao Mingcheng had to return to the county town, she gave Huang Yu her portion first and kept it warm in the pot for her to eat when she came back.
No one took action themselves, and since Zhao Mingcheng had a very good relationship with the Li family, no one objected.
When they were looking at the bowl of salted fish soup, they all looked at Li Jinfeng.
The appearance of sea salted fish is different from that of freshwater salted fish.
In Li Jinfeng's own words, it's just a little bit ugly.
The Li family didn't have a three-year-old child, so they naturally noticed it.
Li Jinfeng explained, "This is fish from the sea. After being dried in the sun, it becomes salted fish. It's saltier than ordinary freshwater fish!"
When making this bowl of salty fish soup, she doesn't even need to add salt. Even if she adds half a pot of water, the soup is still salty.
After that, Li Jinfeng explained, "This fish was sent to me by a friend of mine. He said he wanted us to try it. After all, we're too far from the sea!"
