Liang Qi quickly picked out a large piece of good meat with both fat and lean meat. It was very cold, so he ran to the kitchen with the meat and threw it on the chopping board.
It was so cold that it could freeze her hands off. The kitchen was also very cold. She didn't feel it at first, but the longer it went, the colder it got.
Nie Zheng looked at the meat Liang Qi threw on the chopping board, and then at the woman's red hands from the cold.
"Go upstairs and warm it up. Get out everything that needs to be cut. I'll do the cutting."
Liang Qi saw that the man didn't seem cold at all, so he didn't refuse, even though men have thick skin and will still feel cold.
"Let's take it upstairs to cook. This kitchen is too cold," Liang Qi remembered that there was a large movable chopping board at home.
"Okay," Nie Zheng obeyed the woman's words.
"I'll get the things. You can move the chopping board covering the jar to the upper room and put it next to the kang." Liang Qi ran upstairs with the things in his hand.
Nie Zheng raised his eyebrows and had to carry the chopping board covering the big jar to the upper room.
"The kitchen is too cold. Come up and let's cook together." Zhang Guishu said to Liang Qi and Nie Zheng.
Nie Zheng put the chopping board on the edge of the kang, took the meat and started cutting it. Liang Qi watched the man cutting the vegetables in a professional manner.
Not to mention that it was cut well, the meat looked like it wasn't frozen in the man's hands.
"How big should the meat be cut?" Nie Zheng asked the woman.
"Not too big, not too small, just the right size." Liang Qi demonstrated.
The man took the knife and cut it in just a few minutes.
"Cut two potatoes and some peppers for us," Liang Qi observed the speed of the man's hands.
It’s too fast, it seems that this is also a good worker!
Nie Zheng obeyed the woman's call and concentrated on the work in his hands.
Liang Qi also started to knead the dough. She wanted to eat noodles today. There were four of them, so she scooped out two large bowls of noodles.
Put it in a bowl and pour in the warm water, stir, and knead the dough together little by little.
Nie Zheng had cleaned the chopping board. Liang Qi took out the noodles and looked at the ball of noodles.
Nie Zheng also saw that Liang Qi was having a hard time kneading the dough, "Let me do it." Then he took the big dough from Liang Qi's hand.
It was also Liang Qi's first time to knead such a large ball of dough. She made it a little hard and it was really difficult.
I gave it to a man, and his hands were very strong, so it became smooth in just a few strokes.
"Okay, let it sit for a while and knead it into strips when it softens a little." Liang Qi instructed Nie Zheng.
The man put the noodles on the chopping board in a basin.
Liang Qi started to stir-fry the braised food.
Nie Zheng had already put the pot on the stove, and Liang Qi went to the folk remedy shop to get some lard torn from pig intestines.
Put it in the pot to melt, and the aroma will come out immediately.
"Mom, it smells so good." Little Phoenix lay on the kang, watching her mother and uncle busying themselves.
"It will be more fragrant later," Liang Qi stir-fried the chopped ginger slices, dried chilies, bay leaves and Sichuan peppercorns.
Then pour in the raw meat and stir-fry.
The house was filled with fragrance, and the greedy children were drooling. Liang Qi smiled as she looked at her greedy little cat.
When it seems that it is almost done, pour some water and start cooking. It still takes some time to fry the raw meat.
Liang Qi picked up the basin, rubbed it a few times, and it became much smoother and softer.
"I'll help you. You tell me what to do," Nie Zheng said softly, staring at Liang Qi with his dark eyes.
"Roll the dough into long strips as thick as your fingers. I'll show you how to do it." Liang Qi couldn't explain it well, so he could only let Nie Zheng watch and learn.
"Sure," Nie Zheng thought it was quite simple.
Roll it into strips, and Liang Qi helped to take out some cooking oil from home and brush some oil on it layer by layer, as long as it doesn't stick together.
Soon the two of them worked together to complete it.
Zhang Guishu sat on the kang and watched the two of them cooperate with each other tacitly, just like a real couple.
I couldn't help but ask directly, "Xiao Nie, Qi Qi, when are you getting married?"
This question confused Liang Qi, and he was stunned for a moment.
"What?" he asked in surprise after coming to his senses.
"I was wondering when you were getting married? Many people in the village already know about you." Zhang Guishu frowned.
Why did Qiqi look so surprised? This matter was already known to everyone in the village.
"What do you mean? Why don't I understand?" Liang Qi was confused and frowned again.
Nie Zheng sat on the kang and whispered to Xiao Fenghuang, and was stiff for a moment.
"Do you know what it means?" Liang Qi looked at Nie Zheng and said.
Nie Zheng paused.
"During the investigation, the villagers thought you and I were going to get married, so we were investigated." Nie Zheng repeated this sentence.
By the time he found out, the whole village had already heard about it, and it was too late to explain.
It has been explained unclearly. Saying more may lead to more misunderstandings. It is better not to explain.
"When am I going to marry you? What's wrong with you investigators?" Liang Qi looked at Nie Zheng speechlessly.
Naked disdain. Nie Zheng looked at the woman's disdainful expression. Was it shameful to marry him? And she looked like she didn't take it to heart. He felt a little uncomfortable. When he heard it, his heart was up and down all night. Why didn't she react at all?
In this comparison, he, a man, is not as calm as a woman.
"I don't know either. The organization sent someone to investigate, not me." Nie Zheng looked at Liang Qi carefully.
Liang Qi rolled her eyes. "I'm just a newly divorced daughter, and you're spreading rumors about me marrying you. Have you considered my situation? I still have to live in this village. You're just walking away. How will that affect you?"
