"Ouch!"
"Dad, will you kill me?"
"Dad got bitten too, but it hurts after I blow on it."
"Old Ye, if you can't do it, just wait for the boss to come back and kill you!"
"Nonsense, why can't I do it? This eel is just too slippery, otherwise I would have killed it long ago..."
Ye Zhiqiu returned to the door and was very confused. Why did the whole family start shouting and screaming just because he killed an eel?
He walked in pushing his bicycle, and Ye Wubing ran over with a happy look on his face and took the bicycle.
"Brother, go kill the eel! Dad has been bitten twice. I don't know how to kill it. You have to do it."
"Okay, put the bucket and soda away. Mom, go get a pair of scissors. They'll be needed to kill this thing."
"Oh, I'll get it right away."
Ye Zhiqiu squatted down and saw the bite marks on Ye Tianya. He suppressed a smile and said, "Lao Deng, you should go drink some soda! Just leave this to me!"
Ye Tianya's face turned dark. He thought it was just an eel. How difficult could such a small thing be to kill?
But reality taught him a lesson. This thing is slippery and bites people crazily!
But he did not leave. Instead, a group of people squatted aside and watched how Ye Zhiqiu killed the eel.
Ye Zhiqiu took the scissors handed to him by Wang Xiaolan, put them aside, picked up an eel and threw it on the chopping board, and hit it on the head with a knife.
Pick up the scissors beside you and stab the head to completely fix the eel. Then cut it from head to tail and split it from the back with one cut.
In a few seconds, he took out the internal organs, broke the spine with the tip of the knife, and cut it down with a knife, and the whole spine was taken out!
Cut off the head and chop it into pieces in a few strokes. The whole process is smooth and there is no drag at all!
The family of four watched Ye Zhiqiu intently as if they were watching a performance. He dealt with one fish after another until all twelve were killed, and they still felt a little unsatisfied.
After cleaning, Ye Zhiqiu came to the kitchen and asked Wang Xiaolan, who was lighting the fire, to go drink soda.
Cut the chili peppers in half, prepare the chopped ginger, garlic and green onion segments, and scrape out the water in the pot.
Add oil and wait for the temperature to come up, sauté the minced ginger and garlic, add the eel segments, add some wine, stir-fry until the color changes, then add the chili pepper, stir-fry evenly, add some water, salt and soy sauce, cover and simmer for a while.
Water was added because the chili peppers from Ye Zhiqiu's home were brought from the village. They are not spicy, similar to green peppers, but taste better than green peppers.
This kind of pepper tastes better when it is cooked soft, unlike the crisp taste of green pepper. Simmer for a few minutes, open the lid, add the scallions and stir-fry, then serve.
There are not so many seasonings, to be honest, there is no cornstarch. If you use flour instead, the thickening effect will not be that good, so it is better not to thicken it.
Wash the pot and boil water. My mother and younger sister will take a bath later. We need to mix hot water with warm water!
Ye Zhiqiu brought the dishes back to the living room. Seeing the greasy dishes, Wang Xiaolan felt distressed. She finally understood why the boss came back to drink soda by himself!
But since she has already used it, what else can she say?
Ye Zhiqiu took the corn porridge from Ye Wubing and saw Wang Xiaolan's distressed face. He took out the three dollars from his pocket.
He handed it to her and said jokingly, "Come on, come on, you miser! Look at this thing! Is three dollars enough for you to buy half a pound of oil?"
Wang Xiaolan took the money and was stunned for a moment before she understood what was going on. She asked in surprise, "My dear son, don't tell me this is the money from selling eels, right?"
Ye Zhiqiu nodded and replied, "A total of four and a half pounds sold for four dollars and fifty cents. I spent one dollar and fifty cents on the soda, and the rest is all yours! Tomorrow you can return the bottle and get fifty cents."
Ye Tianya opened his mouth in shock. Did I hear something wrong? I earned four dollars and fifty cents in one afternoon?
Wang Xiaolan muttered, "Four dollars and a half an afternoon, nine dollars a day, two hundred and seventy dollars a month, a year..."
Unfortunately, her dream did not continue. Ye Wubing said with regret: "There are too few paddy fields here. My brother and I have already fished in all of them. Otherwise, we could eat this delicious yellow eel meat and drink soda every day..."
Wang Xiaolan felt very disappointed for a moment. She muttered, "Ah? You've already fished all the fish? I thought you could continue fishing tomorrow..."
Ye Tianya breathed a sigh of relief. If his son could earn so much money every day, how would he, as a father, cope with it?
Seeing her family's behavior, Ye Bailu was the more normal one. While her family was talking about something, she quietly showed off her yellow eel meat.
Eel meat can provide very good nutrients for children who are not allergic. Eating more of it is good for the body, as long as you are not allergic.
Ye Zhiqiu also ate the eel meat and drank the corn porridge with big mouthfuls. This eel was fried really well, and it tasted very fragrant and particularly tasty.
The family members came to their senses and also tried the eel meat. Although they had cooked it once before, it tasted even better this time.
It must be said that Ye Zhiqiu still has a talent for cooking. From the beginning, he didn't know how much salt to add because the salt at that time was coarse salt. And he used fine salt in his later life and couldn't control the amount.
But after cooking many times, he was able to control the saltiness, and the dishes he cooked tasted much better.
After finishing the large pot of food, Ye Tianya touched his stomach and felt that it was a little bloated. He said with satisfaction: "Son, your cooking is really delicious. It would be wonderful if I could eat a few meals like this in a month!"
Seeing that his family was full, Ye Wubing poured the last of the soup into half a bowl of corn porridge, stirred it and started drinking.
