As Chi Qiao was saying these things, Chen Xiaomai and Huang Dani, who were standing next to her, nodded in agreement.
"Little Fish, how about we have eight tables? Three for the Chi family and one for Qin Mu's side."
The county magistrate's family will also have one table. The remaining three tables will be divided as follows: one table for my third uncle's family, and another table for the clan head, elders, and heads of households with different surnames in the village.
In that case, the remaining table can be used for those who came to help. What do you think?
“Okay, sisters-in-law, you can arrange it as you see fit, I’m fine with anything.”
I'll put the rice and noodles in the kitchen in a little while.
"Just one thing, do we have to start inviting people tonight?"
"No need. The situation is special right now. Tomorrow morning will be fine. Ah Ye and the others know what to do."
We'll grab something to eat in a bit while the dough rests.
Once Lord Fang and the others arrive, just make them some noodles with minced meat sauce.
As for tomorrow's dishes, I was thinking, how about ten dishes?
Chen Xiaomai said, "I'll soak the beans later and have Aye's wife make the tofu tomorrow."
Then we'll have braised tofu and fish from the Dongfu River.
I wonder if Master Fang can handle spicy food. If he can, then I'll make boiled fish.
This is a main dish; one serving is equivalent to many other dishes.
Furthermore, there were many chickens, ducks, and eggs in the cave.
I thought the braised eggs Xiaoyu made before were pretty good, so I'll make some braised eggs later.
Another question is, how do you cook braised chicken with mushrooms and duck?
Chi Qiao said, "There's an oven in the cave. We can kill the duck, marinate it, and then roast it later."
"That's it, it's hard to explain to others when you take it out."
Huang Dani dismissed it, saying, "What's so difficult about that?"
We people from Chijia'ao can make charcoal kilns, so we can certainly make a simple baking oven.
"When your brother and the others get back later, let them build one for you."
Chi Yu, who had remained silent to the side, then said:
"We'll make dumplings in a bit. When Lord Fang and the others arrive, they can have them boiled, steamed, or fried, whatever they like."
Tomorrow's main dishes will be a pickled fish, a roast duck, and a braised chicken with mushrooms.
Other dishes include braised tofu and stir-fried water spinach.
Let's make a cold dandelion salad with wild vegetables, and stir-fry some river snails.
The final soup is made with bitter greens, which can help clear heat and detoxify.
This is seven dishes and one soup—neither too meager nor too extravagant!
When Chi Qiao heard that there was meat, vegetables, and wild vegetables, she thought it sounded pretty good.
“Okay, let’s do it this way. Second sister-in-law, we’ve been busy these past few days and haven’t had time to gather any wild vegetables. Why don’t you take some coarse grains and trade them with someone?”
"Okay, I'll go right away. But, since I'm going to exchange for bitter herbs, why don't you go and exchange for dandelions, third sister-in-law?"
"Let's separate. I'll go to Beishan. How are you doing in the village?"
"become!"
Huang Dani and Chen Xiaomai were both straightforward people. Once they decided what to do tomorrow, they looked at Chi Yu.
After Chi Yu brought out the rice and flour, the two sisters-in-law picked up their baskets and left.
After they left, Chi Qiao rolled up her sleeves and prepared to go into the kitchen to knead dough.
"Little Fish, take the meat out of your space and thaw it first. Also, prepare some more scallions; we're going to make scallion and pork dumplings."
The meat in the fish-shaped space was all stored by her and her sister in the modern world.
I haven't done much lately.
Including what I accumulated before the space was refreshed.
There's more than enough room to make a meal of dumplings right now.
"Sis, how about we skip the scallions? If we use scallions, it feels like pure meat filling, which is a bit extravagant."
"How about we use radishes and cabbage?"
