"Aren't you adding too many spices? It feels a bit wasteful. If you put these spices in to cook, I don't think you can use them all in a month."
Zhou Huaian didn't say anything about wasting food, because he had never braised these things before, so he didn't know how much spices to put in. He just sighed and said it.
"Not much. There's so much water. If you put less, the food won't taste good. After the food is done, you don't have to throw away the remaining brine. You can use it to braise other things, even the radish and cabbage you have now."
There is no waste at all, it’s just that there are too few supplies now. If there are more supplies in the space, everything can be braised, as long as it is edible.
There is too much water to fit in one pot, so I have to stew at least two pots. The rest will be kept in the house for the time being until next time.
The offal in the pot was braised for two hours, and the whole house was filled with the aroma of the braised food. In addition, Su Qingxue did not close the door on purpose, so the fragrance could be smelled even throughout the entire yard.
There was really too much water in the stew, and the New Year was coming soon, so Su Qingxue planned to give each person half a bowl later.
Of course, Su Qingxue would not suffer any loss. Most people were embarrassed to eat her meat for free, so everyone gave something in return.
It doesn't matter whether it's valuable or not, it's better to have a give-and-take relationship.
After eating the braised offal made by Su Qingxue, no one said it was not delicious. Some even thought that the braised offal was particularly delicious when mixed with rice.
She filled a large basin for Zhou Huai, "Keep this for you and Sun Rui. After you finish eating, come back here to fill it up. I want to go to the cowshed tonight and give some to my parents and grandpa. But the smell seems a bit too fragrant, and I don't know if others will find out."
Zhou Huaian saw Qingxue was worried and coaxed her softly, "Don't worry, tomorrow is the 29th, and the New Year is coming soon. No one is so patient and active during the New Year. Don't worry, I will go with you tonight, and I will help you watch outside."
Su Qingxue nodded. It was not the first time that the two of them went to the cowshed together.
Ever since the two met in the bullpen, and later became a couple, they often went there together and covered for each other.
The braised meat in the pot has been braising. Su Qingxue plans to braise it for another hour to see if it will taste better.
Then he couldn't wait to pull Zhou Huaian out to play.
As soon as I went outside, I saw that there was a big snowman at everyone’s door, but the skills in making snowmen might not be up to par, so none of them looked very good.
"Huaian, can you make me a really beautiful one?"
"good."
Zhou Huaian agreed without saying a word, and even went back to get a pair of gloves and started snowballing.
Su Qingxue looked at his movements and knew that he had definitely made snowballs more than once or twice, his movements were so skillful.
The snowman he made looks so much better than the ones at other people’s doorsteps.
It’s not that Su Qingxue herself has a filter, but anyone with eyes can see it.
I picked up small stones of various colors and stuck them on the snowman's eyes, nose, and mouth. Finally, I wrapped my scarf around it.
The more Su Qingxue looked at it, the more she liked it. If there weren't so many people, she really wanted to take out a camera from the space and take a picture of her current appearance.
Su Qingxue thought about the several times she went to the commune and realized that she had never thought of taking a photo of herself. She felt that this was really inappropriate.
You should take more photos while you are young and beautiful, and look at them when you are old.
The more I think about it, the better this idea seems. Next time I go out, I'll buy a camera.
There is a camera in the space, but it is not suitable for this era at all and is too advanced.
After dinner, when it got dark, Su Qingxue and Zhou Huaian carried a large basin of braised offal and walked towards the cowshed.
Su Qingxue didn't even have to do it herself. As soon as Zhou Huaian saw Su Qingxue holding the basin, he took it over immediately.
It is better to have someone to help. Su Qingxue did not compete with him, but just cleared the way for him in front to avoid the thick snow making it difficult for him to walk and causing him to fall.
When they arrived at the cowshed, although Su's father was a little displeased with Zhou Huaian and his daughter dating, he did not show it too much. He was just not very enthusiastic.
Fortunately, other people can understand his feeling that the cabbages he grew well at home were eaten by other people's pigs.
I just said a few jokes to him and didn't say anything else.
Zhou Huaian was even more attentive. This was his father-in-law, and he was going to spend his whole life with Qingxue, so of course he had to please him well.
Su Qingxue didn't say much in front of Su's father. After a while, he could think things through clearly.
If I say too much now, I will think that my daughter is extroverted and can't wait to go to other people's homes. It's better not to make him sad.
Although as soon as I saw my daughter's gender when she was born, I knew she was destined to belong to someone else's family.
It's just that I'm a little reluctant to let go of my child after he or she was pampered and spoiled for so many years. It's understandable.
"Dad, you can eat these together, but be careful when eating. After you finish eating, I will bring you some bacon. We encountered several wild boars in the mountains this time. Don't worry about the meat running out quickly. This time you can eat it for a long time."
Father Su thought that it was Zhou Huaian who went up the mountain to hunt, and never thought that it was his own daughter who was so capable.
Seeing so much pig offal, you can tell how much pork there is.
At this moment, he suddenly found Zhou Huaian particularly pleasing to his eyes. He thought that although his family was in a poor state now, as long as Zhou Huaian was by his daughter's side in the future, he would not have to worry about his daughter suffering.
Thinking of this, he liked Zhou Huaian even more, and felt like a father-in-law who was becoming more and more satisfied with his son-in-law the more he looked at him.
Zhou Huaian, who had always been particularly concerned about his father-in-law, felt Su's father's attitude.
He became even more attentive and couldn't wait to get married next year.
Although one can get a marriage certificate after turning 18, it is obvious that Su's father is reluctant to let his daughter get married so soon, so he wants to be more diligent and see if they can get married next year.
However, he did not show it for the time being. He had finally managed to get his father-in-law's attitude to a better level, and he couldn't give him the impression that he was taking advantage of the situation.
He just kept flattering him, which made Mr. Gu at the side wish he didn't see it. In fact, his servile appearance was really irritating.
