A belly full of egg stubble!
Chen Fengxia was so angry that her hands were shaking. Looking at so many egg stubbles, it was as if she was looking at the eggs that had not been laid in the past few days.
She was both distressed and angry. It wasn't that there were no eggs, it was that they weren't laying! But she was helpless and could only chop the chicken to vent her anger.
After chopping the chicken for a long time, Chen Fengxia finally stopped. After she had let out a sigh of relief and her anger had subsided a lot, she put down the knife and prepared to stew the chicken.
It’s already like this, there’s no point in getting angry, I might as well have a good meal.
Because it was already very hot, she couldn't add meat, so she just stewed it in one pot.
In the past, she might have felt a little distressed and reluctant, but when she thought about the dozen dollars, and how she had no place to spend it for the time being, and that it was just a meal of chicken, she didn't feel any remorse.
Besides, the last time they ate meat was during the Chinese New Year, and it had been over half a year, so there was nothing wrong with eating chicken to satisfy their cravings. Especially for her son Zhuzi, who hadn't had eggs for the past few days, stewing a chicken was just the right way to nourish him.
Chen Fengxia felt so happy at the thought of having a pot of chicken to eat in the evening that she worked much faster.
First, pour two large ladles of water into the pot and start boiling. Then, pour the chopped chicken in and blanch it. Remove the chicken and drain the water. After scooping out all the water in the pot, pour in oil and stir-fry the ingredients such as green onion, ginger, and garlic until fragrant. Then, pour the chicken in and start stewing...
Chen Fengxia started cooking at around five o'clock and simmered it for more than an hour. When Liu Youcang came home from work, he smelled the aroma of meat as soon as he entered the house.
Just as he was about to ask what smelled so good, he saw the fallen chicken feathers at the kitchen door. He looked around the chicken coop and found that a chicken was indeed missing.
Liu Youcang entered the kitchen, frowning, "Did you kill our chicken?"
Chen Fengxia was adding fuel to the fire under the pot. Seeing Liu Youcang's unhappy look, her face immediately fell: "What's wrong? Can't I kill him yet?"
"We keep our chickens for laying eggs. What will we eat after you kill them?" Liu Youcang remembered that Chen Fengxia said yesterday that she would make something delicious for Zhuzi, and it turned out that she meant chicken.
He immediately got angry. He knew that Chen Fengxia spoiled her son, but he didn't know she could spoil him to this extent.
Killed. Who can eat eggs every day? Baoya has only eaten eggs a few times since he was a child.
Chen Fengxia added a lot of fire to the bottom of the pot, then stood up suddenly: "Lay eggs? Don't you know how long it has been since the chickens at home laid eggs? If they only eat and don't lay eggs, then why should I keep them? I might as well kill them and eat them."
Liu Youcang looked at her with a sullen face and said nothing.
"What? I can't even kill a chicken to eat? Do you remember the last time you ate meat? I just want to taste the meat, but I can't?"
Liu Youcang was too lazy to say anything more. It was pointless to say more. The killing was already done. He turned and walked out. Chen Fengxia's face darkened as she sat down and continued to add fuel to the fire.
My good mood was ruined now.
Not long after, Liu Dazhu came back, and Chen Fengxia felt much better.
"Zhu Zi, come here quickly and see what delicious food your mother has made for you." Chen Fengxia called at the door.
"What's delicious?" Liu Dazhu was a little reluctant to go to the kitchen because it was too hot, but he was curious, so he went over anyway.
Chen Fengxia pulled him to the edge of the pot and opened the lid.
Instantly, a burst of hot steam came out, and at the same time, the rich aroma of meat wafted out.
Liu Dazhu couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he smelled the aroma. He stretched his head to look into the pot. After the heat dissipated, he saw a pot of chicken inside.
"chicken!"
"Yes, mother stewed the chicken for you. How is it? Are you happy?" Seeing how happy he was, Chen Fengxia kept smiling on her face.
Liu Dazhu nodded vigorously, very happy: "There's chicken to eat, there's chicken to eat!"
When I saw the meat, I was so happy that I almost jumped up.
"Mom, is this meat ready to eat?" Liu Dazhui couldn't wait to reach for the pot.
Chen Fengxia was pulled back, and couldn't suppress a smile on her face: "Go wash your hands first, you can eat right after washing your hands."
Liu Dazhu glanced at the meat bubbling in the pot, swallowed his saliva, and thought that he would be able to eat it soon, so he didn't rush and went out to wash his hands.
Chen Fengxia looked at the meat in the pot, which had been stewed till very tender. She took a small piece of meat and tasted it, and it was also full of flavor. It had been so long since she had eaten it, and Chen Fengxia savored it carefully for a long time before spitting out the bones.
He took out a soup bowl and scooped out all the chicken from the pot.
After the pot is full of meat, the soup bowl is full of meat and emits a rich aroma.
I kept swallowing, and my heart felt like it was filled with honey.
In this day and age, if you can have a meal like this, it would be worth all the hard work.
"It's time to eat." Chen Fengxia couldn't help but shout, and walked out carefully with the big soup bowl in both hands, staring at the bowl all the time, afraid that some of the soup would spill.
"Ah! It's time to eat. There's meat to eat."
Outside, Liu Dazhui had just washed his hands and ran into the kitchen shouting excitedly.
As a result, when he ran into the kitchen, Chen Fengxia was coming out with a bowl of soup. Neither of them had time to dodge and they bumped into each other!
"ah!"
"Ouch!"
“Bang!”
Several sounds overlapped, and Liu Dazhu was knocked to the ground, his head hitting the corner of the door. Chen Fengxia stumbled back a few steps, but she didn't fall, but—
"My chicken!" Chen Fengxia wailed as she looked at the chicken scattered on the ground.
Liu Youcang, who was in the room, heard the noise outside and ran over quickly: "What's going on?"
As a result, Liu Dazhu fell to the ground, and Chen Fengxia stood in front of him with her eyes wide open. In front of her was a broken soup bowl and chicken spilled all over the floor.
"That's the meat I just stewed!" Chen Fengxia knelt on the ground and wailed. Looking at the fallen meat on the ground, she felt very heartbroken.
"Wuwuwu... It hurts so much, my head hurts so much, wuwuwu..." Liu Dazhu also started to cry.
Liu Youcang looked at the messy kitchen and didn't know who to comfort first.
"You little bastard, who told you to run so fast, huh? Are you a starving ghost reincarnated?" Chen Fengxia didn't care about the pain at this moment. As soon as she saw the meat scattered on the ground, she was so angry that she couldn't calm down and started cursing.
"Cry, you still have the nerve to cry? Look at this pot of meat that has been spilled, huh?"
Liu Dazhu had already hit the back of his head, and now he was scolded by Chen Fengxia, so he cried even harder.
Chen Fengxia also wanted to cry. It was a whole pot of stewed meat! She took one bite and it was gone!
......
The Song family was also having dinner, and they were drinking fish soup today.
Although the fish weighed two or three pounds, which was quite a lot of meat, there were too many of them. If they had steamed or braised it, the meat would have been gone with just two chopsticks per person.
So Feng Guizhi simply stewed the fish soup, added some vermicelli and some side dishes, and made a big pot full of it, which was just enough for the whole family.
And the stewed fish soup is fresh, a few small ones especially like it
drink.
After drinking a bowl of delicious fish soup, I feel completely comfortable.
"It's so delicious. It would be great if I could have fish soup every day~" Song Yuanbao burped, licked his lips and said with an unsatisfied look.
Song Tianen slowly put down the bowl, listened and nodded in agreement.
Baoya was still concentrating on drinking the soup. She didn't want to drink it too fast, so she took small sips, savoring the delicious taste of the fish soup carefully.
There were still two pieces of deboned fish in the bowl, but Baoya was reluctant to finish them, so she left some for later after finishing the soup.
As the bowl of fish soup was almost empty, Baoya scooped out the fish meat with a small spoon and ate it. The fish meat was very tender, and the outside was coated with a layer of fried oil, which was also very fragrant. One bite made you want to eat more.
After finishing her meal slowly, Baoya touched her belly and felt particularly satisfied.
The bowls on the table were clean with nothing left.
"I also want to eat fish every day. Why don't we go to the place where we caught fish last time tomorrow? Maybe there will be other fish there?" Song Boyu said, wiping his mouth.
"Okay, let's go check it out tomorrow!"
"I want to go too!"
The younger ones agreed immediately, as they all wanted to continue eating the delicious fish soup.
Seeing that Song Bowen and Song Boyu were both there, Feng Guizhi wasn't too worried, but she still reminded them, "You can go to the creek, but you can't run around near other rivers, and you can't go into the river, understand?"
Song Boyu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, grandma, we know."
Knowing that the children knew their limits, Feng Guizhi didn't say anything else.
After cleaning the house, Chen Xiuxiu washed the pot. After everything was cleaned up, the whole family went back to the house to sleep.
The light in the west room was still on. After Yang Yulan finished bathing Baoya, she put her to bed and fell asleep soon after. Song Tianen was bathing outside at the moment, and he insisted on bathing himself and would not let her help.
Yang Yulan just let him do what he wanted. She was sewing clothes with a needle while waiting for him to finish his shower.
She lowered her head to sew clothes, thought for a moment and said, "Jianye, I plan to go back to my parents' home in a few days."
"We don't have much cloth at home, so we can't make clothes. It's okay now because the weather is hot, so we still have enough clothes to wear. But soon, when the weather gets cold, there won't be any clothes for Baoya to wear."
These days, the clothes Baoya wore were some of Yunduo's old clothes given to her by Chen Xiuxiu, some were modified from Tianen's clothes, and some were hers.
Tian En's old clothes
There weren’t many, and the better ones were all given to Yuanbao. She wasn’t willing to let Baoya wear any older ones.
It was hot now, so she had to wear thin clothes. A few layers of clothing were enough, but she only had two long-sleeved clothes. After all, Baoya was now a member of the Song family, so she had to prepare some clothes to prevent her from freezing when the weather turned cold.
"The last time you went back to your mother's house was in April, right? It's been over two months now, it's time for you to go back and see our mother. We have a new daughter, so you can bring her to see her grandparents."
Yang Yulan couldn't help but smile when she thought of Baoya. She nodded and said, "Yes, I have to take her over to have a look."
Song Jianye thought of his brother's wife over there, frowned, and sighed: "When the time comes, ask mom for fifty cents and buy something from the street to bring over."
Yang Yulan also thought of her sister-in-law from her mother's family, and a look of worry appeared on her face. But thinking of Baoya, she decided to go anyway.
After a while, Tian'en came in after taking a shower. Yang Yulan put away her needlework, turned off the lights and went to bed.
"I'm sorry to trouble you. Only the three of you will have to go when the time comes." On the bed, Song Jianye patted Yang Yulan's hand and sighed.
Yang Yulan leaned sideways and used her right hand to gently massage his leg: "Don't worry, your leg will be healed soon. When you go back to your parents' home next time, we will be a family of four."
"Yes, next time we will go as a family of four." Song Jianye breathed a sigh of relief, and his brows slowly relaxed.
"I might have to wrong you this time."
"I'm not wronged." Yang Yulan withdrew her hand and said softly, "Go to sleep."
The moon was still high in the sky outside, and the sky was full of twinkling stars. The night was especially quiet with a slight cool breeze, and only the croaking of frogs could be heard by the river.
.......
After breakfast in the morning, the children reviewed the words they had learned before, and then immediately packed up their things to go fishing in the river.
Song Bowen carried the basket, Song Boyu held the net, Song Tianen held Baoya's hand, Yuanbao ran in front to show the way, and the rest of the people, Song Wenjie, Song Wenzhi and Yunduo, walked behind.
All the little ones came out today, and it was the most people gathered together in the past few days.
Yuanbao took everyone to the place where they caught fish last time, and they started looking along the river. However, they were not so lucky this time. They looked around the river but did not see any fish.
Instead, I saw a few crab holes and finally dug out two more crabs.
Baoya also followed and searched by the river, but this time she found nothing.
No. She blinked and could only see some small fish swimming quickly in the water.
"Brother, there are no fish." Yuanbao looked around and hung his head in disappointment.
"I didn't see it either."
"I saw some in the river, but the fish were so small."
"I.....I saw it too.....it was running so fast..."
Song Bowen thought for a moment and said, "Let's try fishing in the river with a net. Maybe we'll find it if we're lucky."
"good."
"If all else fails, let's see if we can catch a small one and take it home to raise. We can eat it when it grows up," said Song Boyu.
"Okay, let's get started." Song Yunbao suddenly became excited.
Baoya was also looking for fish with her eyes wide open, and the little ones started to make a fuss.
Finally, after a busy round of work, they caught three small fish. Although the harvest was not large, they were very happy and planned to take them home to raise them. When they grow big enough, they can make fish soup.
After the children returned home, they put the three small fish they had just caught into the small basin where they had kept fish, and the two crabs into the bucket where they had kept crabs.
There were already a lot of crabs inside, and a few small ones were squatting on the side watching.
"One, two, three...there are so many crabs. Can you let grandma cook crabs for us sometime?" Yun Duo stretched out her hands to count them, but found that she couldn't count them enough, so she simply jumped over and said.
"Stinky crabs are not tasty, not as delicious as lobsters." Yuanbao still held a grudge and said angrily with a twisted face.
"When grandma makes crabs for us, don't eat them."
Yuanbao snorted when he heard it, "If you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it. I won't eat stinky crabs."
The two of them were arguing, while no one else was saying anything. Baoya squatted on the side, holding the jar and looking at the lobster inside.
The lobster was motionless inside. Baoya frowned and was a little worried. She shook the jar, but the lobster still didn't move.
She stood up and walked towards Song Tianen, showing him the lobster in the jar.
"What...what's wrong, little sister Xiaobao?" Song Tianen blinked at Baoya, then looked at the lobster in the jar.
Asked: "No... not moving?"
Baoya nodded her little head.
"What's wrong? Is the lobster dead?" Yuanbao heard it and came forward.
He shook the jar a few times, but the lobster still didn't move and looked like it was dead.
He frowned and asked Song Tianen, "Is the lobster really dead?"
Song Tianen couldn't tell either, so he could only shake his head.
Head: "I don't know either..."
"Pour it out...take it out and take a look...take a look?" Song Tianen suggested after taking a closer look and still couldn't figure it out.
Baoya nodded in agreement with his idea, and Yuanbao also nodded.
They squatted down, then slowly turned the jar over and poured out the lobster. The lobster didn't move at first, and Yuanbao reached out and pushed it gently, but it still didn't move.
"Really...really dead..."
When Baoya heard that her lobster was dead, she frowned and felt a little sad.
Who knew that at this moment, the lobster that had been motionless just now suddenly ran away while everyone was immersed in sadness.
"Hey, it ran away!" Yuanbao widened his eyes, quickly followed two steps, stretched out his hand and grabbed the lobster that was about to escape.
Then, it was thrown back into the jar.
"It turns out that we were all pretending just now. Even lobsters can lie." Yuanbao said angrily.
Baoya and Song Tianen didn't expect that the lobster was pretending to be dead. They stared with their eyes wide open and didn't react.
Fortunately, the lobster was not dead. Baoya picked up the small jar again. In order to express her anger at being deceived, she stretched out her little hand and gently hit it through the jar.
At this moment, Yuanbao suddenly remembered and said, "Oh right, let's go catch lobsters, shall we?"
"How do you catch lobsters? Is it the same as catching crabs?" Song Wenjie asked.
Song Yuanbao shook his head. He didn't know how to catch it. This lobster was caught by his father.
"I...I know..." Song Tianen said, and everyone's eyes turned to him.
He suddenly felt a little embarrassed and continued, "My father must know. I'll go ask him."
"Yes, Third Uncle must know. Let's go ask him."
The little ones all ran into the west room: "Uncle San, do you know how to catch lobsters?"
Song Jianshe was weaving reed mats in the house. When he saw the children running in, he smiled and said, "I know. Uncle San used to fish here."
"Fishing? Uncle San, how do you fish lobsters? Should you catch them?" Yuanbao scratched his head.
"It's lobster fishing. It's really easy. If you're lucky, you can catch more than a dozen in a short time."
The younger ones' eyes widened. "Really?"
"Then Uncle San, please teach us how to fish. We want to go lobster fishing too, and then we'll have grandma cook some for us."
"Okay, Uncle San will teach you how to fish and wait for you to catch some lobsters to eat."
Song Jianye told them how to fish for lobsters and where to fish best, but he couldn't get out of bed and couldn't help them get the bait for lobster fishing. He told them to wait until after work and let Song Aiguo prepare it so they could go fishing tomorrow.
The little ones cheered and began to look forward to lobster fishing tomorrow.
When they got off work in the evening, the young men told Song Aiguo about the matter, and he agreed very readily: "Just wait, uncle will prepare the bait for you."
"Yeah, uncle is so nice!"
The next day, after Song Jianye gave them the things, a group of children ran excitedly to start fishing for lobsters.
So, what is this thing that was caught?
