A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

Everyone in the courtyard is looking forward to today's dinner.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Cui also gathered around the stove to learn how to make the ribs look so delicious.

Chen Changsheng poured the light soy sauce, oyster sauce, cooking wine, etc. into the bowl. Dafu looked at the dark bowl of sauce in front of him and asked doubtfully, "Mom, what are these?"

"This is Mom's exclusive secret recipe, just add it in. When your skills mature, Mom will tell you how to mix it." Chen Changsheng responded perfunctorily.

Dafu poured the sauce into the pot and stir-fried.

The lotus root stewed duck was already stewed over there. Liu quickly poured out the soup and freed up the stew pot to make way for the ribs. Dafu added a little more water to cover the ribs. The rest was to cover the lid and simmer slowly.

The few remaining dishes were quickly picked up, and before long a table of delicious, tasty and delicious dishes was all ready.

The sun had just set and the heat of the day had dissipated. The Chen family moved the table directly to the yard and ate delicious food in the gentle breeze.

There were six dishes and a soup, and Mrs. Chen also cooked a large pot of brown rice. She just needed enough food today.

"Mom, would you like some drinks today?" Chen Youjin asked, rubbing his hands.

It's such a rare festive day, and with such good food, it would be a pity not to have some drinks.

Mrs. Chen said with a smile, "Drink, adults all have a full cup."

Chen Dafu was the chef today. Looking at his results, he was very satisfied and asked with a smile, "Milk, let me have a drink too."

"Okay, you are an adult now. Today you will count your achievements, and you will be very successful!"

The remaining children looked at it eagerly, not knowing what the wine tasted like.

Mrs. Chen looked at the table full of delicious food and saw the younger generation gathered together. Her eyes couldn't help but turn red, and she said with a bit of sobs, "After so many years, our Chen family is finally eating together again, and It's still such a good meal. It's a pity that your father is not here, otherwise he would have had to drink two cups."

Chen Changsheng had little impression of the dead father-in-law. It seemed that before the original owner married into the Chen family, Mrs. Chen was the only one left.

But from what Mrs. Chen said, I guess that father-in-law is also a pretty good person.

"My old woman is getting old. I didn't expect to live a good life and eat such a good meal. Alas, when people get old, they tend to get emotional easily, and they will talk more without knowing it. Don't dislike my old woman's words. "More. Let's drink and eat." Mrs. Chen drank a glass of wine first.

Chen Changsheng and Erfang and Sanfang also drank in silence.

Children are big-hearted and chatter non-stop after eating delicious food.

"The dishes cooked by my uncle and brother Dafu are really delicious."

"These ribs are so delicious! I really want to eat the bones too!"

"Dafu, your skills are really good. You can become a chef in a restaurant in the city." Chen Youjin commented.

"I still like to eat the ground vegetables made by my sister-in-law. It's fragrant, spicy and refreshing. It's a great meal." Ms. Liu said while eating.

Mrs. Cui scooped a bowl of lotus root and old duck soup for Mrs. Chen. The old lady took a sip, and the aroma penetrated her taste buds, and the taste of old duck was on her tongue.

"Is this jade lotus root?" She picked up a small piece of lotus root and asked.

She remembered that jade lotus root was only available in autumn, and because it was rarely grown and difficult to dig, it was basically sold directly or supplied to officials. How could her son appear on her table now?

"I went to the city a few days ago to deliver goods, and the city master rewarded me." Chen Changsheng lied.

"Oh, this jade lotus root is very expensive. A piece of jade lotus root is not cheap." Old Mrs. Chen took another bite.

A meal that satisfies the whole family.

It was just after five o'clock after dinner.

Since the eldest family is in charge of the dishes, it is naturally the turn of Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Cui and their children to clean up the dishes.

Chen Changsheng came out of Mrs. Chen's house and rushed home with his four children and their things.

A few people changed into their old clothes and began to work consciously.

Chen Changsheng went to the backyard to check on the pepper seedlings.

The pepper seeds buried a few days ago have broken through the soil and sprouted a few small green buds. Next, these pepper seedlings need to be transplanted.

Two brothers, Dafu and Erlu, have already dug out ridges in the backyard. Each ridge is about 20 centimeters wide and can be used to plant two rows of pepper seedlings. The distance between ridges is about thirty centimeters.

Transplanted pepper seedlings should not be planted too densely, otherwise the field will be closed. The peppers grown in this way are prone to flower and fruit drop, and are also prone to insects and diseases.

Chen Changsheng called the two brothers over again, and she gently dug out the pepper seedlings with the soil, and then transplanted them to the ridges. After she finished the demonstration, she asked her two sons to transplant the remaining pepper seedlings according to her method.

While the children were working, Chen Changsheng went into the room and turned on his bracelet to check the current accumulated calories.

Six thousand two hundred kcal.

There are still 3,800 calories left to enable the next function.

In the past few days, I have been walking to the city and back every day. In addition, I have danced in the morning and evening to burn calories. Now I can basically consume a thousand calories every day.

In this case, Chen Changsheng decided to buy two cheap pots, one for cooking and one for boiling pine oil.

Thanks to the convenience of modern technology, the price of pots has been brought down. The two pots cost a total of more than 900 calories.

"Sanshou, this is the wok I asked someone to fetch for me two days ago. You can take it and clean it. We now have two woks at home, so we don't have to toss them around when cooking several dishes."

Chen Sanshou did not question his mother's words, took it and went to wash it.

Chen Changsheng picked up a few flat bricks that were burned yesterday and arranged them in the corner of the courtyard to look like a small stove. He also took some firewood from the stove to light the fire, and a temporary stove was set up.

The remaining pot was placed on the makeshift stove, and a large bag of pine fat cubes given by Mrs. Chen was poured into the pot. It was heated under a low fire and slowly simmered, stirring as it simmered.

Chen Changsheng thought to himself, this old Mrs. Chen is really a reliable person. This big bag of pine fat cubes can hardly be filled in the pot.

The pieces of pine grease were boiled into small pieces until they turned into liquid. She carefully picked out the bark and other impurities inside.

Because the quality of the candles is not particularly high, there is no need for additional filtering.

The two children Sanshou and Sixi in the front yard were attracted by Chen Changsheng's actions.

"Mom, what are you doing?"

"I'm making candles. If I make them well, we can study even in the dark. We can continue studying by lighting candles without delaying our study progress."

When they heard about learning, some people had a sad face, while others were very happy.

Chen Changsheng looked at the reactions of several people with a smile, and did not stop stirring in his hands.

When only the pine oil liquid remained in the pot, Chen Changsheng took the pot off the stove and set it aside.

She remembered that there was some thread left from making the rice dumplings yesterday, and when she twisted them together, she could use them to make candle leads.

Chen Changsheng placed the thread in an empty slender bamboo tube, and then carefully poured the boiled pine oil into it. It could be used after the pine oil cooled and solidified.

"My wife, I'm going to the camp!" Old Mrs. Chen's voice sounded outside the courtyard.
