Joe's Farming

Qiao Yu knew that Gu Feng could not accept anyone saying anything bad about him.

He hurriedly comforted her, "He probably doesn't speak Dayan dialect very well, so he doesn't know that what he said was not nice. Don't take it to heart."

Upon hearing this, Gu Feng felt that he was making a big deal out of nothing. Seeing that An Ren didn't even notice that he was being scolded, it was indeed what Qiao Yu said.

"Well, the chicken is slaughtered, what to do next?"

Qiao Yu pointed to the two coconuts on the ground.

"My dear husband, please chop it for me and make a hole. Pour the coconut milk into the casserole."

Gu Feng did as he was told.

"Use a spoon to scoop out the coconut meat, wash it and put it in the casserole."

Before this, Gu Feng didn’t know that there was coconut meat inside coconut, and he was really surprised.

"Then we'll just throw it away and waste it after we finish drinking it in the morning."

Gu Feng whispered.

Qiao Yu kissed him secretly: "It's not too late to know now. We just had noodles this morning and we're not hungry."

The seafood in the pot was steamed, and Chen Han and Tie Zhu had finished their work.

Qiao Yu asked them to peel the shrimps and crabs, and then she started to prepare the sauce for the salad.

Pour a layer of boiling oil on chili peppers, onions, ginger, and garlic, and add soy sauce, coriander, and lemon.

Put the peeled seafood in a large pot and soak it.

Once the other dishes are cooked, they will be tasty.

Qiao Yu first picked a shrimp, dipped it in the sauce and fed it to Gu Feng.

The dish was sour, spicy and delicious, and Gu Feng couldn't stop nodding his head as he ate it.

Qiao Yu was pleased: "How is it? Is this chili pepper very fragrant?"

"Mm! Very spicy. This lemon is very fragrant, so there's no need to add vinegar."

Qiao Yu nodded: "This lemon is not only delicious for seasoning, but also delicious when soaked in water. It tastes even better when added with a little honey.

I'll go back and make a jar of honey lemon for the kids, and another jar of rock sugar, so they can drink whenever they want."

Gu Feng didn't know what Qiao Yu was talking about, but nodding was his principle: "Well, everything Qiao Er makes tastes good."

Next, Qiao Yu blanched the chicken. She specifically chose young chicken because coconut chicken would not taste good if it was too old.

Young chicken is tender and low in fat. However, you cannot use fat chicken to make coconut chicken as it will be very greasy and destroy the fragrance of coconut.

Put the blanched chicken into the casserole without adding a drop of water, just add some wolfberry.

He had already prepared the dipping sauce for the coconut chicken, so now all he had to do was wait for the chicken to be cooked.

Next, stir-fry the clams.

Qiao Yu was afraid that the clams might contain sand, so she first boiled them in cold water until they opened, then took them out and set them aside.

Heat the oil, add chili pepper and minced garlic, sauté until fragrant, then pour in the clams.

The collision of seafood, chili and minced garlic came out all at once.

The owner of the inn came over and asked, "Sir, what delicious food are you making?"

Qiao Yu showed it to everyone openly: "Stir-fried spicy clams, have you ever tried it?"

The boss swallowed his saliva and said, "No... I haven't eaten it before."

It doesn’t take time to stir-fry clams. Just add chili and minced garlic, stir-fry for a few times, then add some soy sauce and oyster sauce for seasoning.

Qiao Yu scooped out the clams and put them on a plate, then sprinkled them with chopped green onions and basil.

I handed the boss a pair of chopsticks: "Try it."

The boss thought it smelled a bit spicy, but couldn't help wanting to taste it, so he picked one up and quickly sucked out the clam meat.

Cough cough——cough cough——

The boss coughed and gave Qiao Yu a thumbs up.

This taste is so overbearing!

It's just too spicy for him!

Anren appeared in the kitchen at some point and brought a bowl of water to the boss.

After the boss coughed, he picked up the bowl and started drinking tons of it.

"Sir, this clam is really overbearing."

Qiao Yu was also a little embarrassed: "I should have thought that you locals can't eat spicy food. I'm sorry."

"No...it's okay. If I make it myself, I won't put chili in it."

"Yeah, garlic clams are delicious too."

The boss felt embarrassed and left after saying a few polite words.

Anren was left looking at the plate of spicy fried clams and cold seafood with excitement, his eyes shining.

"Anren, please take the dishes out. I'll just cook two more dishes and we can eat."

"Okay, okay."

Anren happily brought out the dishes.

Qiao Yu casually stir-fried two local vegetables and then the coconut chicken.

When Gu Feng opened the lid of the casserole, he smelled the rich aroma of coconut mixed with the fresh fragrance of chicken.

"Qiao'er, it smells so good."

Gu Feng praised.

This is the sentence Qiao Yu likes to hear most every time she cooks a new dish.

"Hey, as long as you like it. I was worried that you wouldn't be used to this."

Gu Feng curved his lips and said, "I am used to everything Qiao Er cooks."

As a result, not long after he finished speaking, Gu Feng swallowed the dipping sauce containing sand ginger in a speechless manner.

Qiao Yu asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Feng said honestly: "It feels like I'm eating spices."

Qiao Yu nodded in understanding: "Sand ginger tastes a bit strange, if you can't get used to it, don't eat it, it's okay."

Chen Han also couldn't get used to it, so he silently pushed the sand ginger dish in front of Tiezhu.

Tiezhu and Anren really like the unique fragrance of sand ginger, and they have more chicken bones in front of them than others.

"This chicken soup is so delicious! It's sweet! This is the first time I've had sweet chicken soup!"

Anren praised while drinking.

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "You can do the same when you go back. It's very simple."

Qiao Yu explained the method to him again, and An Ren opened his eyes wide: "So simple?"

Qiao Yu nodded.

Anren pointed at the spicy fried clams and said, "This is delicious too. I want to make it when I get home."

"Yes, as long as you have chili peppers and garlic, you can stir-fry any seafood and it will be very fragrant. You can also add some minced ginger."

Speaking of chili peppers, An Ren saw that Qiao Yu had specially left a few for him, so he asked about it.

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "There is no such pepper in my hometown, so I want to save some to make seeds."

Qiao Yu herself likes the various cold seafood dishes the most. They are fragrant, spicy, and have the aroma of lemon. It is really comfortable to eat in the warm weather in Nanyang.

Of course, the coconut chicken soup is also delicious.

Gu Feng drank two bowls by himself.

After eating and drinking, it was already dark.

Qiao Yu asked An Ren with some concern: "Are you sure it's okay to go home now?"

Anren put on the backpack and waved his hand coolly: "Of course, I'm very good at walking at night."

After walking two steps, he turned back and asked Qiao Yu: "Are you leaving tomorrow afternoon?"

Qiao Yu nodded.

Anren nodded: "Goodbye."

I just learned this from Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu also replied loudly: "Goodbye."

They met by chance during their journey and had a meal together because of Xiaomila. They did not ask each other about their family backgrounds but only talked about food.

Maybe after leaving Nanyang, we will never have the chance to meet again.

Qiao Yu and Gu Feng watched An Ren's back as he walked away before returning to their room to rest.

He and Gu Feng planned to get up early the next morning to watch the sunrise, and then do some shopping, so they went to bed early tonight.

"Anren, why did you come back just now?"

An Ping slapped her younger brother on the back.

Anren grimaced in pain: "Sister, why aren't you sleeping yet so late?"

An Ping put her hands on her hips and lowered her voice for fear of waking her parents: "You're still talking! It's already midnight. Do you know how worried A Niang is about you? She almost went down the mountain to look for you."

Anren raised a pepper seedling in his hand that looked like a small tree, with a ball of soil wrapped around its roots.

"Sister, you don't know, I made a friend from Yan today, and he used this to make a lot of delicious food for me.

How can we, the people of our county, eat other people's food for free? I just want to dig this one and give it to him, so that he can make delicious food in his hometown in the future."

An Ping looked at him suspiciously: "Isn't there anything like this in his hometown?"

Anren nodded.

An Ping thought her brother did the right thing, so she let him into the yard: "Don't come back so late next time, the mountain road is dangerous."

"Got it, go to sleep, sis."
