Joe's Farming

While serving the dishes, Wen Ge'er quietly asked Qiao Yu if he could make a sauerkraut fish dish for his wedding banquet.

Qiao Yu thought Wen Ge'er was afraid that Wang Jie would hear her, so she whispered, "Okay, just tell me when you need my help!"

"No, what if someone else learns it?" Wen Ge'er said worriedly.

Qiao Yu said proudly: "You, relax! Even if it is the same thing with the same recipe, the taste will be different when made by different people. Otherwise, how can someone's cooking be unpalatable no matter how hard they try."

Qiao Xing happened to be serving dishes and chopsticks nearby, and asked immediately after hearing this: "Little Daddy, do you mean Daddy?"

Qiao Yu immediately denied: "I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense."

Qiao Xing: “Oh.”

Wen Ge'er smiled and said, "Okay, sell me some pickled vegetables and I'll teach my mother how to make them in a couple of days. As for you, just come to the wedding. I can't afford you."

Qiao Yu knew that Wen Ge'er didn't want him to suffer. A wedding banquet in the countryside is a strenuous job and one has to start working before dawn.

Qiao Yu: "What are you buying? Making pickled cabbage is very simple. Come back to me tomorrow and I'll teach you."

"Hey! Brother Qiao, you are so nice to me."

Qiao Yu felt guilty, he just tried to find things to do, otherwise he would be anxious.

At this moment, Gu Feng was in a small cave that he had discovered temporarily, making a fire and baking some pancakes.

Gu Feng baked the pancake until both sides were golden brown, cut it open with a knife, added the braised pork and chili sauce given by his husband, and ate a bite of pancake and a bite of cucumber.

The mountain wind blew in from the cave entrance. Gu Feng wrapped himself in his cloak and thought, "Alas - I miss my husband."

On the second day when Gu Feng was away, Qiao Yu got up early and cooked noodles with the sauerkraut fish soup that she hadn't finished yesterday.

After dinner, Qiao Yu began to prepare to kill the duck.

However, when Gu Feng did this, he grabbed the duck's wings and head and slashed the duck's neck with a knife, very easily. How come he couldn't even stop a duck! ?

In the end, it was the old man who took action and killed all ten ducks neatly, collecting the duck blood in a small basin.

Qiao Yu couldn't help sighing: Your uncle is still your uncle.

Qiao Yu put some water in the duck blood basin and sprinkled some salt. She wanted to wait for Gu Feng to come back and make him some duck blood soup.

The ducks were rubbed with salt as before, and then boiled in water to scald the feathers. Although ten ducks were a lot, in fact, it took only a little time to kill them, and it didn't take much more time to boil water to remove the feathers.

Plus, the kids probably thought it was fun to shed the feathers, so Qiao Yu wasn't as quick as the three of them. Xiao Xue carefully collected the duck down, as she remembered that her little dad wanted a duck down quilt.

After they finished removing the feathers, Qiao Yu cut open the duck's stomach and took out the internal organs. Then he started to wash the duck intestines and gizzards.

After removing the internal organs, wash the duck and cut out the stink gland on the duck's butt.

Gu Xiaoyan smelled it curiously and immediately frowned, causing everyone to laugh.

Next, Qiao Yu began to stir-fry spices and salt, mainly peppercorns, star anise, bay leaves, and fennel. The salt was stir-fried until it turned slightly yellow, and then pounded into powder.

The duck was almost completely drained, so Qiao Yu used old wine to wipe the duck inside and out. This step was to sterilize the duck and prevent it from getting moldy. Then he started pickling.

There happened to be a large earthenware jar left at home, so Qiao Yu put the ducks, which had been smeared with salt inside and out, into the jar with bamboo sticks, and then put a layer of salt on each duck. Fortunately, his family now has a little money, otherwise no one in the village would dare to use salt like this, washing ducks and pickling meat.

After all ten ducks were placed, a thick wooden board was placed on the last duck. Gu Feng had asked Qiao Yu to make a new chopping board. Qiao Yu was worried that the weight was not enough, so she placed a bag of rice on top.

Qiao Xing: "Little Daddy, is this okay?"

Qiao Yu shook her head: "It needs to be marinated for two or three days, and then air-dried, so that it will taste good."

The three children had been busy with him for the whole morning, so Qiao Yu asked them what they wanted to eat.

Gu Xiaoxue: "Whatever Daddy cooks is delicious."

Gu Xiaoyan whispered, "I want to eat dumplings."

Qiao Xing: "I can eat anything."

Qiao Yu looked at Gu Xiaoyan apologetically: "Yanbao, there is no fresh meat at home. Daddy will use the jar meat that he made last time to cook for you, okay?"

Gu Xiaoyan immediately said, "Okay! Okay! I haven't eaten jar meat yet."

The jar meat is made from the pork belly that Xu Yuan and his friends bought on the day they came to visit. In fact, the pork belly is cut into large cubes, fried in rapeseed oil, and a little pepper and salt are added to the oil and placed directly in a jar to seal it. When you want to eat it, you can just pick up a piece and stir-fry it. It has a unique flavor. As long as it is fried dry, it will not deteriorate even if stored for a year or so. In this era without refrigerators, it is a very good way to preserve meat.

The pork belly was originally fried dry, but it will be soaked in oil and become shiny and moist. Cut into slices and stir-fry with garlic sprouts and cabbage, it is very fragrant, especially the pork skin. However, the meat in the pot is a little greasy, and it is best eaten with rice.

After the meal, Qiao Yu picked up two pieces of jar meat and took a clean bowl, preparing to go to Aunt Shi's house to borrow some pickled peppers and cowpeas to stir-fry duck offal.

Qiao Xing immediately stood up and said, "Little Daddy, I'll go. You go take a nap!"

Qiao Yu:......

Sometimes he felt that his eldest son was too considerate and he felt bad about it.

"Then I'll go take a nap. Just borrow it and put it on the stove. I'll get up and cook."

Qiao Xing nodded.

Qiao Yu lay on the bed, but couldn't close his eyes. This was the first time that Gu Feng had been away from him for so long, but he convinced himself to get used to it. There were no mobile phones here, so he couldn't know what the other person was doing in real time.

At this moment, Gu Feng was holding two fire foxes and a silver fox. These were the spoils he had been waiting for all night. He was almost done, so he planned to hunt two more before going down the mountain. He missed his little husband.

Qiao Yu woke up from the bed and opened her eyes.

What came into view was the snow-white ceiling and the lampshade that she had chosen on Taobao. Qiao Yu sat up in surprise and looked around in disbelief.

It was the bedroom he rented in his previous life, with a simple wardrobe, a 1.5-meter bed, and a familiar laptop on the computer desk.

The sun is shining brightly outside the window, and the bright sunlight shines into the room.

I'm back?

Qiao Yu looked at her hands, then ran to the bathroom to look in the mirror. The pink mole between her eyebrows was gone!

Qiao Yu was horrified!

I don't want to come back! Why did I come back!?

"Ding-dong-"

At this time, a pop-up notification popped up on the computer. Qiao Yu then realized that the computer was still on. He quickly ran to the computer desktop and clicked on the pop-up window.

"It was revealed that a certain Internet company forced its employees to work overtime without compensation, and an employee died suddenly after working overtime continuously!!"

Qiao Yu clicked on the title and a burst of white light came!

Qiao Yu opened his eyes again and found that he had fallen asleep without realizing it!

Great! It turned out that was a dream. This is my reality.
