Chapter 421: Good boy, three red envelopes

The two dishes above are not the entire taro feast.

The third dish Jiang Rou prepared was called "Taro Soup with Oil Residue".

Fried refers to pork fat residue.

The taro for this dish must be small taro.

Because small taro is softer, more tender, and easier to mash.

While the rice is cooking, steam the taro on top of the rice.

When the rice is cooked, the taro is also cooked.

It is very easy to peel the cooked taro.

A layer of slippery liquid will be produced between the taro skin and the taro flesh, which can be torn off with just a little force from your fingers.

After preparing the taro, you can heat the oil in the pan.

Put chopped green onion and pork fat into the pot and stir-fry.

Add taro and continue stir-frying.

During this period, you can use a shovel to crush the taro.

After a few minutes, add water and bring to boil.

The mashed taro is constantly tossed in boiling water, the taro paste becomes soft and the soup becomes soft and sticky.

This is a quick dish that doesn't take much time to prepare.

Before serving, add soy sauce for seasoning and sprinkle with a layer of green onions, and you’re done.

In addition to the three taro dishes, Jiang Rou also made several stir-fried vegetables.

After all, she has a large family, and three dishes are not enough~

…

While Jiang Rou was busy in the kitchen, the three children came home one after another after school.

(╯▽╰ )It smells so good~~!

As soon as Zhou Xiaohua entered the door, she could already smell the fragrance floating in the air.

She held one in each hand, as if she was looking for a partner to do something bad, and dragged Zhou Xiaochuan and Liu Gensheng into the kitchen.

The little girl swallowed hard.

The sound coming from the house stopped her clacking footsteps.

"Xiaohua, don't come in yet. It's hot in the kitchen, you guys play outside in the yard. We can only have dinner after Master Pei comes."

The three children all knew that Doctor Pei was coming to their house for dinner, and they also knew that they should not pick up their chopsticks before the guests arrived.

Zhou Xiaohua smelled the rich fragrance and was reluctant to leave, but ultimately did not go into the house.

Zhou Xiaochuan touched her head.

"Xiaohua, let's put down our schoolbags and play in the yard for a while. We'll be able to eat soon."

Zhou Xiaohua pouted: Okay.

It’s a pity that I can’t sneak a bite, but it’s nice to be able to play in the yard.

The little girl's mind changes quickly and she quickly shifted her attention.

Her newest toy is a shuttlecock, which comes in black, brown, and one with a red crest.

Zhou Chongshan made it for him personally.

Kick them high up, it looks so beautiful!

Soon, children were seen playing in the yard.

Liu Gensheng started playing along at first, but as he was playing, he noticed that there were taro stems and leaves piled up in the corner of the yard.

Jiang Rou had cut it with a knife when she was cleaning the taro and put it aside to be thrown away later.

Liu Gensheng looked at it silently for a few seconds and then walked away.

He dragged the taro stems out from the corner, squatted on the ground, and began to sort them out.

Many people don’t know that taro stems are actually edible.

Liu Gensheng knew because the old blind man taught him.

Just tear off the rough fibrous outer layer of the taro stem, and you will find the crispy and tender inside, just like lettuce, and you can eat it.

Jiang Rou was halfway through cooking when she wiped her hands and came out to see what was going on.

The first thing she saw was Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua, and then she saw the back of Liu Gensheng squatting on the ground.

During this month, Liu Gensheng ate well and slept well, and he finally gained some weight.

But it still looks very small.

When squatting on the ground, it looks even smaller.

Jiang Rou noticed that he was busy with his hands, so she walked over and saw him processing taro stems.

"Gensheng, how do you make this? Taro stems are inedible, don't do that."

Liu Gensheng looked up, his eyes sparkling, and said firmly, "It's edible. This is edible. I've prepared it all."

There was some earnestness in his firm words.

Jiang Rou took a closer look and found that Liu Gensheng had placed the prepared taro stems on the clean taro leaves, arranging them neatly.

This one looks very attentive.

Looking at the child's eyes again, the cautiousness hidden deep inside instantly softens one's heart.

"Gensheng is amazing, it turns out that taro stems are edible, I didn't even know that." Jiang Rou praised with a smile, and gently touched his head, "Let's wash the taro stems and stir-fry them tonight, okay?"

Liu Gensheng smiled widely, "Okay!"

He had done something within his ability and made a small contribution, which made him very happy.

Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua followed and gathered around.

Jiang Rou said with a smile.

"Xiaochuan, Xiaohua, look - this was done by Gensheng. Gensheng knows a lot, isn't he amazing?"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded, "Amazing."

Zhou Xiaohua smiled sweetly.

Liu Gensheng's dark face turned slightly red.

He smiled happily.

He quietly put his hands behind his back, hiding them so that no one would notice anything unusual.

…

When the sunset dyes the sky red.

The Zhou family's guests finally arrived.

He was accompanied by Zhou Chongshan.

"Oh my! I can smell the fragrance from far away. I am in for a treat today. Jiang girl? Where is Jiang girl? Is she still busy in the kitchen? Why can't I see her?"

When Doctor Pei was in the military camp, he liked to call Jiang Rou "girl".

He and Zhou Chongshan are close friends who are as close as life and as close as generations. From the beginning, he liked Jiang Rou because of her.

Later, the more I interacted with Jiang Rou, the more I found her character interesting, and the more I watched her, the more I liked her.

Calling her "girl" naturally brings intimacy.

Jiang Rou heard the voice, walked out of the house, and smiled warmly at Doctor Pei.

"Doctor Pei, you are here."

"No, no, I'm not a military doctor anymore, so this title is wrong. I know that Chongshan calls me old man in private, and you're his wife, so why don't you just call me old man Pei?"

Doctor Pei is old, but his mind is not muddled at all. He has sharp ears and eyes, and knows everything.

He narrowed his eyes and teased Jiang Rou with a smile.

There are some things Zhou Chongshan can say, but Jiang Rou can never say them.

She ignored Doctor Pei's words and pushed the children out.

"Xiaochuan, little flower, rooted, calling people."

"Hello, Master Pei."

"Hello, Master Pei."

"Hello, Master Pei."

The three children nodded obediently, and Zhou Xiaohua started to speak seriously.

Doctor Pei was still smiling, his face showing wrinkles of time and the kindness of an elder.

He felt in his pocket and took out three red envelopes.

"You're so good. This is my first time eating at your house, so I should give you some gifts. This is for Xiaochuan, this is for Xiaohua, and this is for you, Gensheng. It's yours."

Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua looked up and looked at Jiang Rou.

This was the first time they had encountered such a situation and they didn’t know if they could handle it.

Jiang Rou looked at Zhou Chongshan to see what Zhou Chongshan meant.

Zhou Chongshan nodded, "This is Master Pei's gift, you guys should keep it."

Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua politely said "Thank you, Grandpa Pei" and accepted their small red envelopes.

It’s Liu Gensheng.

He stood there at a loss, his small hands tightly grasping his pants and rubbing them constantly.
