Chapter 55: Pickled Cabbage and Bone Flavored Potato Chips



"It's time to eat!"

Meng Fei lifted the lid of the pot and the hot steam instantly engulfed him.

Hearing Meng Fei's call, Liu Jiajia was the first to rush out of the house.

Looking at the steaming pot of stew, Liu Jiajia stared into the pot with her eyes wide open, her saliva almost flowing out.

Meng Fei picked up a plate of chopped green onions and coriander and poured it into the pot.

The seemingly ordinary chopped green onions and coriander instantly activate the aroma of various ingredients, and a more intense fragrance comes to the face.

"Okay, let's get started!"

The big pot in Meng Fei's yard is quite special. It was specially built by his grandfather.

In the middle is a large iron pot with space for people to sit around it. This is convenient and ensures that the ingredients will not get cold, so you can enjoy hot and delicious food at all times.

The Second Master and Old Liu also came out at this time and sat down around the stove.

As soon as Meng Fei finished speaking, Liu Jiajia was eager to try, but when she saw that the two grandfathers didn't pick up their chopsticks, she held back.

"Hahaha, this is stewed in a big pot. It makes me hungry just by looking at it!"

Looking at the various fragrant foods in the pot, Mr. Liu was the first to put his chopsticks into the pot.

Clip it to the dried bean shreds on the edge of the pot.

As a state banquet chef, he has always cooked dishes with fresh ingredients and rarely uses dried vegetables.

So he was a little curious about what the dried beans in the big pot of stew tasted like.

Old Liu picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of dried bean shreds soaked in soup, and put it into his mouth.

The next second, Mr. Liu opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

“This!…Is this beans?”

"What's wrong, Mr. Liu? Are these beans not delicious?" Meng Fei looked at Mr. Liu puzzledly, and at the same time picked up a bean and put it into his mouth.

"This texture...this taste..." Mr. Liu savored it carefully, "I've never eaten beans so delicious!"

"Is it true?" Meng Fei smiled when he heard Mr. Liu's affirmation.

"I was worried that you wouldn't be used to it!"

"Gouzi, with your cooking skills, you can definitely open a restaurant!" Erye also echoed and praised.

At this time, Liu Jiajia could no longer wait, so she quickly picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of goose meat and put it into her mouth.

"Hoohoo! Hot! Hot! Mmm! Delicious!" she said incoherently while chewing.

The atmosphere was very harmonious. Everyone was eating and chatting happily.

..........

The next morning, Meng Fei went up the mountain at daybreak and picked a large basket full of wild vegetables, intending to bring them back to Liu Lao and the others.

On the way back, he came across a small piece of kidney essence tea, and Meng Fei picked them up as well.

When we got home, the grandfather and grandson were still asleep.

So Meng Fei went into the kitchen and started to get busy.

There is an old saying in Northeast China.

"Dumplings on the bus, noodles on the bus."

Every time he left home for school, his grandfather would get up early to make him his favorite dumplings stuffed with sauerkraut.

Meng Fei didn't feel anything at that time.

But now when I think about it, I have mixed feelings.

Meng Fei skillfully kneaded the dough and mixed the stuffing, and soon a large set of dumplings was ready.

At this moment, the sound of a car door opening was heard in the yard.

Meng Fei wiped his hands and walked out of the kitchen.

Sure enough, Mr. Liu was moving things into the car.

"Mr. Liu, let me help you."

Meng Fei hurried forward and took the box from Mr. Liu.

"Meng Fei, are you making dumplings?"

Old Liu looked at the flour in Meng Fei's hand and asked with a smile, "Well, these are authentic Northeastern pickled cabbage dumplings, all freshly made. Come and try my craftsmanship."

Meng Fei scratched his head with a silly smile.

"Okay, okay." Mr. Liu nodded with satisfaction.

Meng Fei helped Mr. Liu move all his things into the car, and then went straight into the kitchen.

After a while, the steaming dumplings came out of the pot.

"It's time to eat! Try the dumplings I made." Meng Fei brought the dumplings to the table and brought bowls and chopsticks.

Mr. Liu and Liu Jiajia didn't hesitate to eat.

"Well, these dumplings are good! Salty and sour, and sour and fragrant! Delicious!" Old Liu took a bite and gave a thumbs up.

"Hmm, hmm, hmm, it tastes better than the ones grandpa makes!" Liu Jiajia said hesitantly with her cheeks stuffed full.

"As long as you like it." Meng Fei smiled.

"By the way, Mr. Liu, I went into the mountains this morning to pick some wild vegetables and brought them back to you."

As he spoke, Meng Fei took the backpack into the house and placed it in front of Old Liu.

Old Liu's eyes lit up and he looked delighted.

His biggest gain from this trip was seeing Meng Fei's cooking skills.

Then I got to know many wild vegetables.

However, these are just ordinary wild vegetables in Meng Fei's eyes.

It completely conquered the taste buds of a country's top chef.

"Thank you, Meng Fei."

"We, grandpa and grandson, have troubled you for so many days. I'm really sorry that you still have to get us things before we leave."

"Oh! Why are you being so polite to me? They are just some worthless things. You can take them back and try them. If they are not enough, give me a call and I will mail more to you." Meng Fei laughed.

As if he had thought of something, Meng Fei glanced at the little girl who was eating with her head down.

He secretly slipped a black plastic bag to Mr. Liu from under the table.

Old Liu looked at Meng Fei with some confusion.

"Kidney Essence Tea, what a good thing! Take it back and make some water to drink." Meng Fei said in a low voice.

"Kidney Essence Tea? I've never heard of it. Does it have any effect?"

Meng Fei chuckled, opened Baidu, searched for it, and then handed it to Mr. Liu.

After seeing this, Mr. Liu's eyes lit up. He looked at Meng Fei meaningfully and nodded.
