Chapter 227 Miss Ruan, what were you looking at me for?
"How can you eat the fish without scraping off the scales? You can't eat the head either, so just chop it all off."
Wei Yunsheng also felt that the fish head was inedible and said, "Just chop it up."
Tao Zhili thought about it and agreed, so he listened to the two of them, put the fish on the chopping board, and chopped it directly at the head with a knife.
Then, the knife slipped on the fish scales and cut off the scales.
The fish realized that its life was in serious danger, so it jumped up with all its might and hit him with its tail.
Dou Ning, who was standing nearby, narrowly avoided the attack and screamed in fright.
The others looked at Tao Zhili, who was stunned by the fish tail, and laughed loudly without mercy.
"Hahahahahaha, Tao Er, you kissed the fish!"
"Tao Er, can you do it? Hahaha..."
“Hahahahahahahaha…”
The laughter in the yard was very harsh for a moment.
In the end, it was Su Jing who rescued Tao Zhili.
These young masters don't know how to kill fish. They chop them here and there, which is quite torturous for the fish.
Ruan Qing stood by the sink washing vegetables, her slender green fingers carefully washing them, her serious expression as if she was washing some kind of work of art.
I heard the noise over there suddenly become quiet. I looked over curiously and saw Su Jing's handsome profile. He was sitting under the eaves, killing fish with a serious look on his face.
He scraped the scales, removed the belly and removed the gills with such skill that it looked like he had been killing fish for ten years.
She looked for a moment and then looked away, continuing to wash the vegetables and fruits in her hands.
But not long after, a figure came over, so tall that it blocked the sun nearby.
Ruan Qing didn't turn around to look, but just brought the basin of water for washing vegetables to the table next to the sink and continued to wash the tomatoes in his hands.
The red tomatoes, pinched by white jade-like fingers, look very beautiful.
Su Jing didn't turn his head, turned on the faucet halfway, and carefully cleaned the killed fish with a small or medium stream of water, without letting a drop of water splash on the beautiful girl beside him.
Ruan Qing thought he would leave after washing the fish, but unexpectedly he put the fish on the stone platform on the other side, and turned to help her take the basket of washed vegetables, apparently intending to help her take it into the kitchen.
Then she looked up at him.
There was his usual faint smile between Su Jing's eyebrows, and his fox eyes seemed to sparkle with tiny lights in the sunlight.
"Miss Ruan, what were you looking at me for?"
He asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear clearly.
The person involved knows exactly who this just happened.
Ruan Qing didn't pretend to be confused, and said calmly: "If you want to see it, then see it."
After saying that, she ignored him and turned around to continue washing the vegetables carefully.
The smile in Su Jing's eyes deepened, and without saying anything else, he took the washed vegetables away.
Su Heng was in the kitchen waiting for the fish to be fried when she saw her elder brother laughing as if he had eaten honey.
That's not right. Someone who laughs secretly wouldn't be so showy, like a peacock spreading its tail tail.
"Brother, hurry up, my fish."
Su Heng didn't have time to care about those things. She had already heated the oil in the pan and was just waiting for the fish.
What she wanted to make today was the kind of grilled fish that people in later generations would become famous for online. Although it was called grilled, it was actually fried in a pan first, then seasoned with sauce and fried spices and grilled slowly over low heat. Side dishes could also be added.
"Here, sister, do you think that big brother killed this fish exceptionally well?"
Su Heng took a look and saw that it was handled quite cleanly, so she nodded perfunctorily: "Yeah, yeah, it's okay."
As she spoke, she put the fish into the pot. The sizzling sound of oil splashing was heard, and the kitchen suddenly became lively.
When the people outside heard the noise in the house, they all sped up the skewering of the meat.
Su Jing didn't leave. Su Heng turned around and looked at him in confusion. Then she heard Su Jing ask, "What do we do with the vegetables?"
While looking at the fish in the pot, Su Heng told him various ways to prepare it.
"Cut the eggplants in half, slice the cucumbers normally, and the potatoes thinly..."
Su Jing listened carefully before nodding and leaving.
Su Heng scooped the fish out of the pot, watched him walk out, and said to Lu Mingchuan, who had just returned with ribs, "What's wrong with my brother? Why does he seem so cocky when he smiles?"
Lu Mingchuan glanced outside and said casually, "Maybe he's happy."
Su Heng didn't pay much attention to it and continued to prepare other dishes. She took out the chicken feet she had bought in advance from the refrigerator. She had asked someone to buy them for her at a state-owned restaurant.
No one likes to eat chicken feet, so she paid someone to set aside the chicken feet when preparing the dish and sell them to her, and the other party was very happy to do so.
Grilled chicken feet are a must-have for barbecue, but they need to be marinated in advance until softened before grilling to make them delicious.
There is also roasted sweet potato skin, the one with pickled radish in the middle is Su Heng’s favorite.
She concentrated on preparing the food, and Lu Mingchuan stayed in the kitchen to help her.
The people outside were cutting vegetables and skewering meat, it was very lively.
Fortunately, although Meng Xiao and his friends were not good at killing fish, they had no problem skewering the meat.
Su Jing took a cutting board and went to the sink to cut vegetables, but did not join in the fun.
It was not until after eleven o'clock that the people in the yard finished preparing the dishes.
Various meat and vegetable skewers were neatly stacked in winnowing baskets, and semi-processed foods such as fish and chicken feet prepared by Su Heng were piled together to form a small mountain.
Some of the meat has been marinated and smells delicious.
Finally, after taking out the seasoning and ice water, Su Heng said, "Okay, let's move everything to the lake."
The things filled up two long tables. Fortunately, there were many men present and they were strong enough to carry them over together.
Although a few dogs smelled the fragrance, they were still patrolling the garden diligently.
Only Zhaocai kept calling in a coquettish voice and rubbing against Su Heng's trouser legs to ask for food.
Su Heng was holding something in her hands and had no time to pay attention to it. But Dou Ning saw it, picked up a string of meat and handed it to Zhaocai. Zhaocai immediately bit off a piece of meat and stopped to eat. After eating, he chased after them to bite off another piece.
Dou Ning was amused and laughed: "Sister Su Heng, your cat is so smart."
Su Heng was also amused and said, "It uses all its little brain to beg for food."
Ruan Qing saw it and looked over. Dou Ning handed her the bamboo stick and said, "Sister, do you want to try feeding it?"
Ruan Qing nodded, took it, squatted down and handed the skewer of meat to Zhaocai's mouth. It called out to Ruan Qing in a coquettish voice and then bit the piece of meat off the bamboo skewer. It looked very smart.
Ruan Qing showed a faint smile on his face and reached out to touch Zhaocai's head.
"Brother, what are you daydreaming about? Go light the charcoal. We're going to start grilling."
"Coming." Su Jing retracted his gaze and went to open the furnace.
Two barbecue grills require two barbecue chefs.
Su Heng started teaching on the spot. Everyone was quite interested in this new thing. The weather was not too hot at the moment, and it was not too smoky to stand in front of the stove.
They specifically chose a flat area upwind. The sycamore trees above their heads perfectly blocked the sunlight, and the breeze blew over, making the leaves rustle.
The most important thing about barbecue is the temperature. The charcoal cannot burn into an open flame, and you also have to pay attention to turning it over.
The seasonings are prepared in advance, just brush them on.
Everyone gathered around the stove and watched for a long time, and finally they all rushed to try it out.
Su Heng smiled and said, "It's okay, just try it. If it gets burnt, you can eat it yourself anyway."
