Space Farming: The Rough Man Orion Dotes on His Wife Excessively

Gu Rao, "..."

She remembered that she had given Bieye fifty coins of pocket money not long ago, but it was all spent so quickly? Although he was a little skeptical, Gu Rao did not dwell on this topic.

It would be good to let others know that Bieye has a wife who is very strict with money. This can prevent some unrelated relatives from trying to borrow money from Bieye.

Yu Xiang thought she had said something she shouldn't have said, so she smoothed things over and said, "Didn't you ask us to help? Start now, otherwise you will have to rush tomorrow."

Gu Rao said to Bieye, "You come and see the stall. I'll go to the kitchen with them."

Bieye responded, "Okay."

Xu Yuanyuan watched them talking, and she clearly felt that she was an outsider. She felt lost and confused. Could it be that she really had no choice but to give up?

Gu Rao went out in the morning to buy the vegetables he would need tomorrow, and delivered them one after another in the afternoon. They were all neatly placed on the cutting boards and vegetable baskets in the kitchen.

Zhang Cuihua was surprised when she saw the food in the kitchen.

"Why prepare so much?"

Gu Rao said, "I didn't know what to cook for the treat, so I bought some more according to my own taste. If I can't use up these dishes, I can keep them for my husband and I to eat at home."

Zhang Cuihua thought the same thing.

"You are renting a house, not buying a house, so if you invite the villagers to your home for a meal, you don't have to prepare too much. Tomorrow, there will be two meat dishes, three vegetarian dishes, and a bowl of soup."

"There are so many dishes that I won't be able to use up. I'm afraid you will have to eat for several days."

Gu Rao said, "Vegetables in Tian'er are easy to spoil and can't be stored for more than three days. I also bought a lot of meat. I plan to make four meat dishes, four vegetarian dishes and a soup."

"I've already figured out what to cook."

"For the meat dishes, we will make steamed pork belly, steamed pork with rice noodles, diving rabbit and braised chicken with potatoes. For the vegetarian dishes, we will make three delicacies, potato shredded pancakes, braised eggplant and spicy and sour potato shreds. Finally, we will make sour radish and duck soup."

Zhang Cuihua's heart ached when she heard this.

"How much does this cost? If you count, there are five meat dishes in total. Isn't that sour radish and duck soup also a meat dish?"

"Just make some pickled cabbage soup."

Yu Xiang had a different focus and said to Gu Rao, "Except for the steamed pork belly and steamed pork belly, I have never heard of any of the dishes you mentioned, but just by hearing the names, I know they are delicious."

"Did you figure it all out yourself?"

Without waiting for Gu Rao to answer, he added, "I almost forgot. You used to be a girl from a wealthy family. You must be more knowledgeable than us country people. Do rich people eat like this?"

Gu Rao, "..."

Rich people all eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, but those are just the things that ordinary people in that world like to eat.

However, this was a good misunderstanding, which saved her the time to explain the origin of these dishes, so she said conservatively, "Our family used to love eating these."

Yuxiang is already looking forward to it.

"I'll have a good meal tomorrow too." Thinking about the first half of his life, he said with a bit of regret, "I've never eaten what rich people eat in my life."

Gu Rao, "..."

She couldn't take that.

Yu Xiang tugged on Zhang Cuihua's sleeve and said to Zhang Cuihua, who was still in pain, "Ms. Gu prepares so many dishes because she is generous and because she likes the people in the village. How can you ask her to deal with it casually?"

"We've bought the vegetables. If we don't eat them, they'll stink if we keep them. Don't worry about her. They're doing business in the town. How can they even feel sorry for the money to buy vegetables?"

"We don't eat for free. When we come to her house for dinner, we must give gifts. We are afraid of taking advantage of them, so the gifts should be slightly more expensive."

Gu Rao said quickly, "As long as people come, there is no need to give gifts."

Yu Xiang disapproved and said, "Coming to your house to eat empty-handed is something that is not done by serious people. We in Taohua Village are all serious people and we don't want to eat other people's food in vain."

"However, we villagers spend our lives digging for food, and our families don't have much money. I'm afraid you won't appreciate the gifts."

Gu Rao smiled and said, "Where did you come from?"

"We live in the town, and we have to spend money on food and drink. It's too late to envy you for having a house and land in the village, so how can you despise the things you give us?"

Zhang Cuihua said, "Since you have decided on what to cook, let's start quickly. Don't just talk. There are so many dishes and there are many people eating, so we will be busy this afternoon."

-

The total number of people in Taohua Village, old and young, totaled 222. Some families came alone, some families came together as a couple, and some simply came as a whole family.

At least one hundred and fifty people are expected to come tomorrow.

Zhang Cuihua was responsible for washing and cutting the meat, Xu Yuanyuan was responsible for lighting the fire and peeling the potatoes, and Yu Xiang was responsible for killing the chickens, ducks and rabbits, and after the killing, they had to pluck the feathers.

A total of eight chickens, eight ducks and fifteen rabbits were killed.

Gu Rao instructed them on how to cook, while cutting vegetables and preparing other ingredients. After an hour, they could finally start cooking.

Harder dishes should be prepared today, while simpler dishes can be eaten and cooked tomorrow.

She planned to prepare the two more time-consuming dishes of steamed braised pork and steamed pork with rice flour, as well as the large dish of potato shredded pancakes, and cook the rest tomorrow morning.

The first thing I made was the steamed BBQ, and this time I made the salty BBQ.

Prepare six pounds of pork belly. After the iron pot is heated, put the pork belly skin side down into the pot. Brown the skin of the pork belly until it turns golden brown to remove the residual smell of pig hair and skin.

After the pork belly is browned, take it out and put it in a basin and clean it.

Add an appropriate amount of water to the pot, put the washed pork belly into the pot under cold water, add an appropriate amount of cooking wine, ginger slices, then add green peppercorns, and finally add the green onions, roll them into sections and put them into the pot, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and simmer for a while time.

Chop the washed bean sprouts and put them in a basin for later use.

Put minced ginger and garlic in a bowl, add green peppercorns, dried chili peppers and star anise.

Apply an appropriate amount of light soy sauce and soy sauce to the pork skin of the pork belly, and then apply a layer of salt.

After the pot is hot, add oil and heat the oil until it is 70% hot. Place the processed pork belly skin side down in the pot and fry until the pork skin is golden brown.

Take out the pork belly, soak it in cold water for a cup of tea, take it out and cut it into thin slices while hot, put it in a basin, add an appropriate amount of salt, chicken essence, sugar, cooking wine, dark soy sauce, soy sauce, and stir the seasoned pork belly evenly spare.

Place the pork belly skin side down in the steaming bowl, and pour the soup prepared in advance into the steaming bowl.

Stir-fry the bean sprouts until they are dry and set aside.

After heating the pan, pour oil, add the prepared minced ginger and garlic, dried chili peppers, and green peppercorns to the pan until fragrant. Add the bean sprouts and stir-fry until fragrant. Add chicken essence, salt, sugar, and soy sauce and continue to stir-fry.

Place the bean sprouts evenly on the steaming bowl with the pork belly, put it into a large pot, steam over high heat for a quarter of an hour, and then steam over low heat for half an hour.

After the attractive-colored roasted white meat is steamed, place it on the stove, cover it with a steaming bowl, heat it up again tomorrow, and then serve it in the bowl.

Zhang Cuihua said with emotion, "There are too many seasonings in your kitchen. I didn't recognize many of them. It seems that you can't learn from others."

Pointing to the chicken essence in the porcelain jar, he asked, "What are those little yellow things?"
