Zhou Yian came back early to cook. Although the venison was not soaked for a whole night, it should be okay.
Braised food is still the best dish to go with rice.
Blanch the venison to remove the odor. For this step, Zhou Yian put several pieces of venison. They all need to be blanched anyway, so blanch more at a time to save space for later use.
Add water, ginger slices, and a little rice wine as cooking wine.
Zhou Yian sat on a stool, staring at the fire in the stove in a daze.
I feel like I've thought of everything and nothing.
It's quite warm.
While they were still on the mountain, Zhou Yian had no worries and prepared to start making braised venison.
Mainly, she knows how to braise.
I added some soybean oil and looked at the oil barrel, which seemed to be almost empty.
At the beginning, they used soybeans to press soybean oil themselves. Others were very frugal, but Zhou Yian used it up quickly. Later, they purchased it from Ge Qiuze.
Although he didn't have soybean oil and had less pork lard at the beginning, Zhou Yian asked him to bring a few pieces of pork lard the next day, after all, he was a big customer.
Later, we also purchased some soybean oil.
Ge Qiuze mainly sells pork, and Zhou Yian suspects that he may be connected with people who raise pigs secretly.
I just don't know where the pigs are raised. The pork he sells to her is a little cheaper, and the other things may be miscellaneous goods purchased, so he can't give her a discount either, after all, the purchase price is there.
Add oil and wait until the oil is hot, then put the chopped venison in and fry it until it turns golden brown, then take it out.
After taking it out, add onion, ginger, garlic and water to the remaining oil. Grandpa used to use chicken soup, but Zhou Yian doesn’t have it now, so he can only add water for the low-end version.
After adding the seasoning, add the venison.
Let it simmer.
It smells so good.
Zhou Yian picked up a piece with chopsticks and ate it. It was really delicious. Today was another day of being amazed at his own cooking skills.
Now that it is ripe, scoop it up quickly and put it in a basin, and then put it in the space.
I cooked another pot of rice.
Zhou Yian was ready to go out with his camera.

Zhang Guoan and his companions also came down from hunting and met up with the female educated youth on the necessary route.
"I also shot a pheasant today." Qian Tu was quite happy, "and a few pheasant eggs, so I have meat to eat today."
"I didn't expect you to be so capable, Qian Tu," Hu Yue spoke quickly. She was always eloquent in front of the male educated youth.
"It's not a lucky shot at all. It was clearly a chicken that got entangled in thorns accidentally, so we just stumbled upon it." Xu Donghui's face darkened. Seeing Song Songbai and the others easily carrying a rabbit down the mountain, he thought hunting was very simple at first.
Unexpectedly, when they went up the mountain today, even if they saw one or two animals, they couldn't catch them with their sickles.
Xu Donghui fell down, but Qian Tu was still laughing. This created a grudge between Xu Donghui and Qian Tu.
"That's also my ability. I can see that you haven't hit anything." Qian Tu looked at Xu Luyao when he said this. He didn't know why he liked this person, but Xu Luyao seemed quite pretentious and didn't do her job well.
"What are you talking about?" Xu Donghui was about to say something.
Xu Luyao also helped, but she couldn't bear to see the boy she liked being talked about like that. "Donghui is very capable, Comrade Qian, please don't say that."
"What's so great about him?" Qian Tu didn't see what was so great about him, but when faced with the female educated youth's persuasion, he still didn't say anything bad.
Hu Yue quickly tried to smooth things over, "It just so happens that we dug some mushrooms today, so we can have chicken stewed with mushrooms."
"Okay, then please roast it." Qian Tu was not polite and said sarcastically, "I just don't know if some powerful people can eat other people's meat."
Xu Donghui clenched his fists and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xu Luyao looked at him worriedly.
After they went down the mountain together, Xu Donghui didn't say another word, even when Xu Luyao asked him.
Qian Tu doesn't care. Being angry is the best. He hates men who live off women the most, especially when the man is not his.
This guy eats and drinks Xu Luyao's food every day, and ignores others. Qian Tu even wants to poach him.
It was a little late when we got down the mountain. We were washing pheasants and mushrooms in the yard, and the others were chatting and laughing.

Zhou Yian was also waiting for Song Songbai to finish work. When the old men and women saw Zhou Yian coming, they teased her that she and Song Songbai were inseparable and why she had to come here after work, even though it was such a short distance.
At this time, she smiled calmly and said nothing. She had been to the countryside before and knew that the more the aunties joked, the more she should ignore them, otherwise they might keep talking about it in the future.
Sure enough, seeing how she looked so confident, the old ladies just said a few words and left it at that, waving their hands.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people around, Zhou Yian quickly walked up to Song Songbai, thought about her unreasonable request, and said a few kind words, "Husband, is your work hard today?"
"It's not hard." Song Songbai still felt very touched by An An's concern.
But it is indeed not very hard. After all, I used to do the work myself, but now I just have to drive. Although driving a tractor is tiring, it is much more leisurely than before.
"Then you have to cooperate with me." Zhou Yian looked at him with her watery eyes wide open.
"What do you want to say first?" Song Songbai was a little wary.
"What could be the matter? I just want to take some nice photos for you." To capture her beauty, she looks good in photos too.
"That's it?"
"Yes." Zhou Yian nodded.
"Then go ahead and shoot." There's nothing to discuss.
"Okay." Zhou Yian narrowed his eyes and smiled. "Then are you willing to show off your charm a little bit appropriately?"
Song Songbai's face froze.
