Chapter 5: The Young Daughter-in-Law of the Village Head
The child went there very well.
As soon as the child left, Xu Zhichun hurriedly took out a fat chicken from the fresh food warehouse, rinsed it, and chopped it into pieces.
I realized halfway through chopping that the chicken I took out seemed to be a three-yellow chicken, which was very different from the original chicken's skin color.
Xu Zhichun is numb.
She quickly picked out a wild rooster, which was very good and looked real. Although it was called a rooster, it was actually very fleshy and firm.
Xu Zhichun removed the chicken feet, wings, and necks, chopped the chicken meat and legs into small pieces, and put them into the pot together with the original chicken pieces to stew.
After thinking about it, I found some dried shiitake mushrooms from the warehouse, soaked them in hot water, and added them to the pot. I said I accidentally found them in the mountains and dried them and put them away. Anyway, the children were in school every day and didn't know.
She simply added a handful of wolfberries, a handful of lily slices, and a few thinly sliced slices of authentic yam.
The answer is: it was obtained from the mountains.
OK, keep the original fragrance.
Liang Mingxuan came back soon, and Xu Zhichun cut some juicy white radish into pieces and added them in.
In fact, tender spring bamboo shoots are the best, but unfortunately I don’t have any at home right now.
The fire was blazing, and the soup in the pot quickly changed color, looking so tempting. It was bubbling, steaming, and the fragrance filled the room.
The uncle and his sister-in-law couldn't help but feel a little greedy.
Xu Zhichun quickly cooked.
The meal is ready, and the chicken is stewed just right.
She first served them both a bowl of fragrant chicken soup. "Come, let's drink the chicken soup first. Chicken soup is the most nourishing. Drink the soup first, then eat the rice and meat."
"Um."
Xu Zhichun served another bowl of chicken and sent it to Aunt Zhuer next door.
Aunt Zhu'er was shocked. "How much meat is there in a chicken? You and Mingxuan should both eat more. Why did you send me so much? No, no, I really don't need it."
The two families lived at the easternmost end of the village, some distance away from other families, and had a good relationship. Xu Zhichun was not willing to take her back.
"The chicken we killed this time is big, with lots of meat. Really, Aunt Zhu'er, please eat it while it's hot. Don't be polite to me. You've helped me so much."
After Xu Zhichun said this, Aunt Zhu'er couldn't refuse. She smiled and said, "Thank you very much! There's no need for our two families to exchange polite words."
It's good to have a give and take.
"Yes, that's right. I'm going back to eat too!"
"Go ahead, don't forget to make the medicine. Rest at home for a few more days. There's no need to rush the farm work."
"Why."
When Xu Zhichun returned home, a large bowl of chicken and two small bowls of chicken soup were still neatly placed on the rough, old square table, and Liang Mingxuan was sitting at the table.
Xu Zhichun was surprised: "Hurry up and drink the soup, why haven't you drank it yet?"
Liang Mingxuan: "I'll wait for my sister-in-law to drink together."
Xu Zhichun felt a little touched. You know, farmers can only eat meat a few times a year, let alone such a delicious chicken soup. He could resist eating such a delicious chicken soup right in front of him. He is indeed a person who can do great things in the future.
To be honest, if she were him, she would definitely not be able to control herself.
"Sister-in-law is back, drink quickly."
"Yeah, sister-in-law drinks too."
Seeing Xu Zhichun pick up the bowl, Liang Mingxuan started to eat.
This chicken soup is really delicious. It is so tasty that you can’t help but want to swallow your tongue. It feels so smooth when you put it in your mouth.
After enjoying the chicken soup, I served myself some rice. The rice, the meat, the radish and the mushrooms soaked up the broth were equally delicious.
It seems that if I can’t finish this meal at noon, I can have another meal in the evening and another meal tomorrow morning.
Liang Mingxuan was both happy and a little surprised: "I didn't expect this chicken to have so much meat!"
Xu Zhichun's heart skipped a beat. This kid had such a good sense of accuracy. Other kids his age wouldn't even notice this. They'd just be busy eating. Her kid was just amazing!
She smiled and said, "It's such a big chicken, so there must be a lot of meat. We also added a lot of radishes and mushrooms, so it looks even more substantial."
Liang Mingxuan thought it made sense, "Sister-in-law is right."
The uncle and his wife were halfway through their meal when another unexpected guest arrived. "Is Sister Zhichun here?"
Xu Zhichun asked Liang Mingxuan to continue eating, and he hurriedly stood up to greet her. "It's Xiaoyan, come in and sit down."
Zeng Xiaoyan is the wife of Liang Mingliang, the youngest son of the headman. She has a remarkable background. Her family is the concubine of the Zeng family, a famous wealthy family in Qingshan County.
Because the headman's father had saved Mr. Zeng's father, the two families made a marriage engagement. Zeng Xiaoyan was a concubine's daughter, and because of her bad temper, she was not liked by her stepmother, so she was married to the village.
Zeng Xiaoyan was not happy about this marriage and caused a lot of trouble when she first got married.
Now she can no longer make trouble, but she plays at home all day and does nothing, and no one in the headman's house says anything to her.
After all, her dowry was substantial. While it wasn't much compared to the wealthy Zeng family, it was still a fortune for a rural family. She naturally wouldn't give anything else to the government, but the harvest from the six acres of fertile land she brought with her went into the government.
Just for this reason, she feels at ease doing nothing every day and has to keep other people's opinions to herself.
Xu Zhichun was a little confused. She did have some memories that the original owner had no connection with Zeng Xiaoyan. She didn't know why Zeng Xiaoyan came to her house for no reason.
Zeng Xiaoyan smiled and said, "My mother asked me to come and see if you're feeling better. Oh, you're just having dinner now?"
Her second sister-in-law has gone crazy again. She is feeling unbalanced and is saying that she is lazy in a sarcastic way. Will she just let others say that?
Her stepmother always found ways to torment her and her step-sister, and she'd argued with them more than once, even in front of her father. Even if her stepmother's revenge was even worse, she wasn't afraid. Would she be afraid of her second sister-in-law? She'd confronted her right then and there.
The mother-in-law was probably also troubled, so she pushed her out with a few words and asked her to help come and see how Xu Zhichun was doing.
It just so happened that she was too lazy to argue with Zhao, the petty-minded woman who couldn't compete with her but insisted on competing with her, so she came.
I didn't expect that they were just having lunch. A big bowl of chicken soup, mushrooms and radish, it smells so good.
Come to think of it, she hasn't eaten chicken for a long time.
Even more greedy.
Zeng Xiaoyan knew it was inappropriate, but those eyes had their own ideas and they stared straight at the steaming chicken soup.
Xu Zhichun, considering the face of the village head and his wife, was embarrassed to let Zeng Xiaoyan see it alone, so he smiled and invited: "Would you like to try the freshly stewed chicken soup?"
Zeng Xiaoyan's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on her oval face: "Isn't this inappropriate?"
"What's inappropriate? Sit down."
Xu Zhichun smiled and brought a set of bowls and chopsticks. He poured a bowl of chicken soup and a few pieces of chicken for her and asked her, "Would you like some mushrooms and radishes?"
"want."
"Okay."
Added a few pieces of mushrooms and radish.
"Eat it while it's hot."
Zeng Xiaoyan thanked her and took a sip of the soup eagerly. Her eyes lit up again. "What a delicious chicken soup! Sister Zhichun, you are amazing! You are such a good person!"
Xu Zhichun almost spit out his soup. This compliment was so sincere.
Today I will update once. I will update twice a day during the new book period. I will update twice a day as usual in the future.
