After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

Shui Qing went into the kitchen to make dinner.

She started to heat the pot on the stove, then poured more than half of the water into the innermost and middle large iron pots.

Put the marinade into the big iron pot inside, and later Fan Jin will put the cleaned pig's trotters, pig heads, pig intestines, etc. into it.

In the middle, pork bones are added to make soup.

Bai Manshan and Li Huyu will return tomorrow morning and have hot pot tonight.

On a cold day, it goes best with hot pot.

Thinking that neither the two of them nor the children can tolerate spicy food, Shui Qing prepared a strong pork bone soup base. For those who like spicy food, just add an extra spicy dipping sauce.

There are only a few simple meat dishes: fresh mutton slices, homemade handmade fish balls, fresh shrimps, thin slices of fresh fish fillets, fried crispy pork, delicious egg dumplings, and fried small wild fish.

There are not many vegetarian dishes, just tofu, fried gluten, cabbage hearts, spinach, potato slices, bean sprouts, mushrooms, coriander and small greens. The main reason is that it is winter, and vegetables that are not in season cannot be brought out.

However, each dish is generous in portion.

The staple foods are brown sugar glutinous rice cakes, pumpkin cakes, and spring rolls—I don’t have enough time, so they are all ready-made products bought at the mall, and I just heat them and fry them myself.

Simple and fast.

Then I fried a bowl of egg fried rice.

When the soup base is cooked, the flavor is almost ready.

Although braised food can be more delicious if it is soaked for a longer time, at this moment Shui Qing just wants to eat braised large intestine and braised pig trotters!

It doesn't matter whether it's too tasty or not.

She first picked out the dried beans and put it on a large plate;

Then take out the pig ears and cut them, cut the pig intestines, and finally chop the pig trotters.

The sauce-colored pig's trotters were chopped into a small pot, almost overflowing.

Seeing Fan Jin come in, Shui Qing smiled and said, "It's cold, let's have hot pot tonight."

"Hot pot?" Fan Jin looked at the various dishes placed on the chopping board on the stove. They were layered, neat and rich, and he asked instinctively.

Shui Qing explained a few words succinctly, and Fan Jin understood. A slight smile appeared on his lips, and he commented expectantly: "It's very novel."

He took a few steps forward with his long legs, took the dishes to the dining room next to the kitchen, and placed them one by one.

Shui Qing's confidence greatly increased and she felt extremely happy.

Then he scooped the big bone soup into a small iron pot with two ears and carried it over. A small red clay stove was already placed in the middle of the large round dining table.

The charcoal fire inside was bright and lively.

When it was getting dark, Bai Manshan rubbed his hands and trotted back.

Li Huyu also came back carrying two large buckets of fat fish.

Not to mention children who go out to work.

At this moment, a group of people who washed their hands and ran to the dining room were stunned when they saw the novel way of eating on the big round table.

Shui Qing had to explain again.

When they heard that they were cooking and eating, except for the eldest Ling Ran, the other children showed excitement on their faces.

"This method is good. I've tried it at home, but it's not as comprehensive as yours!" Bai Manshan was also very excited, eager to try it like a child.

In fact, he only has a few kinds at home, and the soup base he uses is not made from big bones, but thin fish fillets blanched in boiling water, and he mainly eats fresh and tender ones.

When he saw the dipping sauce, he was even more curious. After tasting it, he wanted to dip all the dishes in the dipping sauce!

Next to him, Li Huyu, who had been obsessed with fishing for the past two days, couldn't help but eat. At the moment, he couldn't even think about talking.

I just think this one tastes better and that one tastes better!

When she was half full, she finally had time to speak, "Shui Qing, this dipping sauce is so delicious! I suddenly feel so envious of Qian'er, he can stay."

Shui Qing wants to say that this dipping sauce is the best recipe she has summed up, and it is delicious even when dipped into the soles of shoes!

But that can't be said. She said rather modestly: "Where is it? I'm just thinking about it."

It feels best to be praised by others.

Especially the food made by people who love to cook is unanimously recognized by diners.

Li Huyu gnawed the pig's trotters and looked at Bai Manshan hesitantly.

Suddenly she didn't want to go back.

It's not that I don't want to go back, but I don't want to go back so soon and so early, and I want to stay here for a while.

After I went back, I had to get up early every day and stand in my mother-in-law's yard to set the rules. I would greet my mother-in-law when she woke up, and I would also serve her breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Not to mention going out to fish, just getting up late and chewing pig trotters with your hands is as serious as breaking a rule of heaven!

I originally thought that the courtyard of Bai Mansion was very big, but now I feel that the courtyard is very small...

How can Bai Manshan not understand?

Don't say Hu Yu doesn't want to leave, he doesn't want to leave either.

But, "If we can't, I can still say that the business has been delayed. Think about it, what will my mother think if you don't go back?"

Li Huyu bit his lip and blurted out without thinking: "You just told mother that I'm dead?"

Bai Ziqian swallowed the pork bone soup in his mouth with a gulp.

Then as expected, I choked.

"cough cough"

The children who were boiling vegetables, nibbling pig's trotters, frying fried rice with eggs, and filling brown sugar glutinous rice cakes all froze in place.

Big brother is a bit of a tiger.

Under the attention of many children, Li Huyu slowly put down the pig's trotters and had to explain: "I was just talking casually~"

If she could live here forever in Shuiqing, she would rather tell her mother-in-law that she was dead.

Anyway, Qian'er is here, and her husband comes over from time to time under the guise of doing business. There is no difference in life, no, the difference is that it is better.

Alas, it's a pity that a daughter-in-law still has to go back and serve her mother-in-law. Even if her mother-in-law doesn't need her to serve her at all, she can't be idle.

When Shui Qing learned that Li Huyu wanted to teach Mrs. Bai how to behave in the morning and evening, she was only glad that she didn't wear it to a wealthy family.

Otherwise, I would not dare to think about that life if I had to be waited on by my mother-in-law in her room every morning and evening.

She whispered to Li Huyu beside her: "I will also be a mother-in-law in the future. I don't want my daughter-in-law to follow the rules. It's not like she can't move. Besides, how can this purely tormenting thing be settled?"

Li Huyu nodded fiercely and agreed deeply: "Stop talking about you, I will fight to my death to prevent my daughter-in-law from suffering this!

You said that my mother-in-law is surrounded by a bunch of nuns and maids to take care of her, and she wants me to go there rain or shine. I can't do as well as the maids, so why bother? "

Shui Qing thought of Fan's mother without a maid to serve her, and she wished she could use the original owner as a maid.

But there are also good ones, like Aunt Li who is very nice to her daughter-in-law.

She doesn't pick right and wrong, talks about her son in advance, doesn't say much when giving birth to children, and does her best to serve her confinement... So when she has a headache, fever, and discomfort, her daughter-in-law cares more about her than her husband.

She sighed, "Perhaps people are different. Some people are born evil, and it is not possible for others to enjoy happiness at home, especially if this person is the daughter-in-law of her son.

Let's just be ourselves. "

Li Huyu nodded vigorously again.

She doesn't want to be a disgusting old woman!

Even when she is old, she will be an old lady loved by future generations~

The days in the village were so leisurely that Bai Manshan and Li Huyu, who were originally planning to leave early in the morning, delayed it until it was almost time for lunch.

But unexpectedly, an uninvited guest came in the peaceful and harmonious days.
