Chapter 77: Nickname: Gou Mao, Real Name: Chen Shitou
Sun Shuihua asked Du Ling to sit down and poured some water for everyone.
Du Ling saw Han Jiaojiao sprinkle water on Shen Junshan's face, and she smiled: "Life is pretty good."
"That's right. Fortunately, I didn't get divorced. Otherwise, where would I find such a good girl who is both fierce and caring?"
Du Ling nodded, and Han Jiaojiao helped Shen Junshan back and asked them to sit in the yard and chat.
She picked up the snails from two bamboo baskets and poured them all into a large wooden basin, added water and salt, and also added two or three drops of sesame oil.
After washing it four or five times, it was finally clean and Sun Shuihua had cooked several dishes.
Stir-fried wild mushrooms, stir-fried celery with black fungus, fried eggplant sandwiches, mixed cold vegetables, and a large plate of freshly baked cured meats.
Han Jiaojiao drooled when she smelled the fragrance: "It smells so good!"
"Come and eat."
Shen Junshan set the table for her, and seeing Han Jiaojiao's blushing face, he called her over with a distressed look.
Han Jiaojiao ran to the back of the car, pretended to tidy herself up for a while, and then took the semi-finished pork belly up.
"My two dishes will be ready in a while. Please help me prepare some bamboo sticks to pick the snail meat."
There happened to be a few pieces of broken bamboo left over from making things in the yard.
Sun Youmin took a bamboo and two knives and split the bamboo skillfully, while Shen Junshan sat beside him and processed it slowly.
Han Jiaojiao wrapped the semi-finished crispy pork belly in large leaves, then wrapped it in tin foil. She placed two thick pieces of firewood under the stove and threw the food in to roast.
When Sun Shuihua came in, she had no longer seen the pork belly. She was staring at the pot of snails, smiling happily.
"This is the first time I've seen snails cooked so deliciously! How do you do it?"
"I'm willing to put in some seasoning. Sister, is there a lot of sugar at home? The men drink alcohol, so it's not bad for us to drink some sugar water."
"What are you talking about sugar water? Today is such a nice day, let's just drink some soda. Wait, I'll go to the grocery store to buy some!"
Sun Shuihua slapped her thigh and ran out quickly.
In the past, they were reluctant to buy soda during the Chinese New Year, but today they are much happier than during the Chinese New Year, so they should buy it!
Han Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief.
She added a little Sichuan hotpot base to the seasoning for the grilled snails to make the taste richer.
She didn't want to be caught and questioned.
When the people came back, she had already cooked the snails and cut the crispy pork belly.
Sprinkle with coriander and sesame seeds, then sprinkle with plum powder and chili powder, and drizzle with a specially prepared sauce. It is crispy when bitten but not too hard.
When the two dishes were served on the table, the village chief's eyes widened.
"My goodness, with your skills you should work in a restaurant. All the chefs will be laid off!"
"Stop teasing me, village chief. Let's pick up our chopsticks. The food is almost cold."
Han Jiaojiao took a big sip of the soda and ate two pieces of snail meat.
Shen Junshan saw her little expression and picked some snails for her.
Han Jiaojiao even sucked up the soup in the shell. Shen Junshan smiled and said, "Slow down, it's hot."
"It's the first time I've eaten such fresh snails. There's no earthy smell at all. I rarely have this kind of thing when I'm back in the county."
Du Ling hesitated for a long time and finally picked one.
She imitated Han Jiaojiao and used a bamboo stick to take out the meat, removing the black part behind the buttocks. She took a light taste and her eyes lit up.
Du Ling praised: "The cooking skills are really good. Today's dishes are comparable to a state banquet! No, they are much more delicious than a state banquet."
"From the sound of it, Comrade Du has even attended a state banquet?"
Du Ling was shocked by Sun Youmin's question and said quickly, "I haven't eaten it, but isn't it like that at banquets? How can it be as delicious as this!"
"You're right, but I want to criticize Jiaojiao."
Han Jiaojiao looked at her third uncle in confusion, with a bamboo stick in her mouth.
Sun Youmin said seriously, "You make these delicious dishes every day, which only makes Junshan fatter. What should I do if I waste my body?"
Han Jiaojiao looked Shen Junshan up and down.
He also felt the provocative and teasing gaze, and his thousand-year-old wooden face began to break.
Shen Junshan pretended to be calm: "Uncle, don't tease her."
"Third uncle is talking about serious matters."
Han Jiaojiao put her hand on his stomach and said, "Don't worry, Third Uncle. I will definitely protect Junshan's eight-pack abs."
Du Ling saw their intimate movements, and then saw Shen Junshan's little white martial artist's face turned pink.
These fierce and ferocious words were used without any sense of incongruity at this time.
Shen Junshan pushed her hand away in embarrassment: "Stop making trouble."
"Okay, I won't make a fuss."
Han Jiaojiao sighed, her wooden head couldn't stand a joke, her eyes rolled around.
Han Jiaojiao leaned close to his ear and said seriously: "When your injury is healed, do sit-ups every day. Your abdominal muscles will be more prominent and you will sleep more peacefully at night."
Shen Junshan was nearly choked to death by the snails.
He stared at Han Jiaojiao embarrassedly, too scared to utter a word.
Too fierce!
Han Jiaojiao smiled. She just liked the look of him as a pure little boy!
Sun Youmin laughed out loud: "It seems that it won't be long before I can hold my grandson."
Du Ling almost spit out a mouthful of soda.
Shen Junshan handed her a tissue, and Du Ling took it embarrassedly and wiped her mouth.
The village chief bared his teeth and said, "Old Sun, you are just being rude. What are you talking about when you are talking about having a baby?"
"Why can't I talk about it? Jiaojiao can even develop abdominal muscles. Can't I talk about my future grandson?"
Han Jiaojiao nodded confidently.
Trying to take the opportunity to soothe his stomach, Shen Junshan wordlessly squeezed her hand and took it away.
He just didn't understand why Han Jiaojiao was so obsessed with his belly.
Isn't it normal to have abdominal muscles? Everyone around him has them. It's such a normal and common thing, what is she obsessed with?
Shen Junshan didn't understand, so he picked up a large piece of bacon and stuffed it into her mouth.
Han Jiaojiao leaned close to him, and Shen Junshan felt uncomfortable: "We are eating, stop making trouble."
"I'm serious."
"What's so serious?"
Shen Junshan stuffed another piece of meat into her bowl.
Han Jiaojiao ate her meal and said thoughtfully, "I'm wondering when I can let my third uncle hold his grandson."
“Ahem!”
Shen Junshan couldn't hold it in any longer and gave her a resentful look.
The little look made Han Jiaojiao laugh. She laughed non-stop and everyone laughed with her.
Sun Youmin smiled like a loving mother: "Third Uncle doesn't want to force you to have a baby early, but if you do, you must bring the baby to me so I can give it a nickname, just like you did."
"Let's name the first child after my third uncle."
"Dad, from what Junshan said, you want to have more than two children, right?"
Everyone laughed again.
When Shen Junshan came to his senses, he was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to hide.
Han Jiaojiao's face also turned red. She was good at teasing others, not good at being teased, so she quickly changed the subject: "Did Junshan have a nickname before? What was it?"
"Dog hair."
"What?"
Sun Youmin said with certainty: "His nickname is Goumao, his full name is Shitou, and his original name was Chen Shitou."
Sinking stones? puff…
