"Although most villagers are kind and honest, there are also some with bad intentions. So even if you have something good, you have to keep it secret from others. You have to be on guard against others."
Xia Tian taught Shen Nian about rural life experience while working.
The land was plowed, divided into areas, and ridges were made. The rapeseeds were sorted and planted. I went to the river several times to fetch water to water the seeds, and it was done.
Chen Nian looked at Xia Tian who was working very hard and felt a little envious. It was a pity that his body...
Shen Nian did not return to the house throughout the afternoon. He moved a stool and sat under the eaves, watching Xia Tian busy in and out.
After the vegetable fields are planted, we go to fetch water to wash the pig intestines in the summer.
Seeing Shen Nian wrinkle his nose, Xia Tian smiled and explained, “This is pig intestine. Although it smells stinky now, I will clean it and cook it later. It will taste good.”
Scrape off the grease, wash it repeatedly with salt and flour until it is clean, and then light the fire and add the spices to start braising in summer.
Then he took out the lard he had bought, washed it, cut it into pieces, and used another pot to refine the lard.
After a while, the yard was filled with fragrance, and even Shen Nian was looking forward to what to eat in the evening.
After the oil is refined, collect the oil residue in the summer and save it for making dumplings the next day.
For dinner, Xia Tian still steamed rice, cut a plate of braised pig intestines and pig hearts, fried some shredded potatoes, and drank the chicken soup that he didn’t finish at noon.
Under Xia Tian's expectant gaze, Chen Nian tasted a bite of the braised pig intestines. Unexpectedly, it was mellow and chewy, not greasy at all. It was very delicious, a taste he had never tasted before.
Shen Nian was impressed by Xia Tian's cooking skills. The last time Xia Tian boasted about her good cooking skills, Shen Nian was noncommittal. Unexpectedly, this girl was not exaggerating at all. She was indeed a great cook.
"How is it? How is it?" Xia Tian asked Shen Nian repeatedly.
Seeing Shen Nian nod in approval, he suddenly became excited, “I told you, my skill in stewing dishes is superb, it must be delicious.”
Chen Nian looked at Xia Tian's instantly pleased look, and her eyebrows curved.
The two of them were very satisfied with the meal.
After dinner, Xiatian collected the refined oil residue, put the uneaten meat and bones into the cupboard, and placed the braised offal in the space.
The weather is not too hot now, so it’s okay to leave the meat overnight.
It’s not time to go to bed yet, and Xia Tian sees that Chen Nian is in good spirits.
I leaned over and said, "Brother Shen, do you think it's okay for me to set up a stall to sell braised dishes?"
