The resentful best friend travels through daily life

Shen You first washed the green peppers and then put them outside to dry in the sun.

The sun is still bright, so I guess we can have dinner now.

Then, the two sisters started chatting.

"Youzi, I think we have to read and learn to read. You have memory, but can you read?" Zhou Ning asked.

Shen You shook his head and said, "I don't recognize it, because I was stupid before and didn't learn much, and my father didn't teach me either."

After some discussion, the two decided to bother Shen Yi, who had been doing housework at home.

Shen Yi had just come back from fetching water when he saw Shen You, with her hands behind her back, jumping towards him.

"Third brother, are you busy now?" Shen You smiled sweetly.

Shen Yi put down the water, looked at her creepy smile, and said cautiously: "Xiao Si, what do you want to do?"

"Stop, stop, stop. No matter what you want to do, don't think about it yet. When you come back, tell Dad, tell Mom, and tell Big Brother. In short, don't tell me."

"I, I, I, I have something else to do. I have to go fetch another bucket of water."

After saying that, Shen Yi slipped away at lightning speed.

Just when Shen You was feeling lost, Qi Ji came out of the room and asked, "I wonder if there is anything I can do to help you, little sister?"

Shen You turned around and saw a young man with gentle eyes and brows, but he looked sickly.

Shen You could tell that he was not an ordinary person and should have been educated, so she asked, "Brother Qi... Brother Ji, can you read?"

Qi Ji coughed twice, nodded, and said, "I recognize some of them."

That's modesty.

Shen You suddenly became happy and said with a smile: "I wonder if you can teach me and Ning to read? Don't worry, I will definitely make delicious food to reward you."

Qi Ji thought about it and realized that there were two little girls present at that time. One was the one in front of him, who should be the daughter of the Shen family, and the other should be the An Ning she mentioned.

"The Shen family has saved my life. Teaching my little sister to read is just a small favor. How can I dare to talk about reward?"

Qi Ji's voice was warm and soft, without any aggressiveness.

Shen You thought to himself: This person speaks in a very flowery way.

"However, I haven't seen Bai Zhao. Why didn't he come back with you?"

Qi Ji's words were like thunder that struck Shen You, and he didn't know which way was which.

Shen You let out a few “ah ba ah ba” sounds, and it seemed that they had left Bai Zhao behind in the town.

So Shen You immediately went to find Zhou Ning, but Zhou Ning hardly remembered this person.

After all, Zhou Ning didn’t recognize people very well, and he was vomiting all over the way.

Finally, Shen You found Liu Qingxiu and realized that it was not them who left Bai Zhao behind, but that Bai Zhao had other things to do after sending the letter, so he did not come back with them.

Shen You told Qi Ji the truth.

Qi Ji smiled and said, "It's okay, as long as he didn't lose it. Let's go study."

Shen You told Liu Qingxiu that he wanted to learn to read and write, and Liu Qingxiu generously gave his book to Shen You.

The three of them took classes together in the outer room.

"This is heaven. As the saying goes, heaven is ..."

As Qi Ji spoke, he took water and wrote on the table stroke by stroke.

You know what, you really don't say, his handwriting is quite beautiful.

Zhou Ning and Shen You imitated his writing strokes one by one, and after only two or three times, they both learned it.

Qi Ji praised: "The two little sisters are very talented and can be ranked in the top three among the people I have met. Besides, they are still young. With time, they will be able to study and understand things on their own."

You are a very nice person. You can even encourage others to read.

Without further ado, Qi Ji taught Zhou Ning and Shen You a few more words, and they both learned them quickly.

Qi Ji praised the two of them again.

Zhou Ning didn't react at all, but Shen You was so happy that she looked like a balloon flying into the sky.

Afterwards, Qi Ji taught the two of them another twenty words and then stopped teaching, saying that they were biting off more than they could chew.

Shen You and Zhou Ning were also tired from studying, so they went to get their own green peppers.

The green peppers were also dried, and Shen You cut the ginger and garlic.

Then Shen You found a jar, put in boiled water, white wine, rice vinegar, sugar, salt, poured in some green peppers, spread a layer of ginger and garlic, then poured in the remaining green peppers, poured in the above seasonings again, and finally covered it with a lid to seal it.

Shen You made three jars in total.

After all, she has done this before and has experience, so she won't make any mistakes.

Just as Shen You was preparing to cook dinner, Liu Qingxiu entered the kitchen.

"Xiao Si, what are you doing?" Liu Qingxiu asked puzzledly.

"Oh, Mom, I plan to cook." Shen You said with a smile.

Seeing that Shen You was not joking, Liu Qingxiu was speechless. She thought about the waste of cooking and Zhou Ning's trust in Shen You, and even wanted to light a fire for her.

Liu Qingxiu finally said "Do it well" and left.

It’s because Zhou Ning bought all these things.

It is four o'clock in the afternoon.

Liu Qingxiu had nothing to do, so her younger daughter took on the cooking and her younger son took on the housework, and then she went to find Zhou Wan.

Shen You liked to eat rice, so she steamed some rice.

For so many people, Shen You steamed four bowls of rice, with the ratio of rice to water being 1:1.3, which made the rice soft and delicious.

Zhou Ning is responsible for making fire.

"I've never seen such strange cooking equipment. Why not get a kang so that we can keep warm and cook at the same time? That would be great." Shen You said.

Zhou Ning thought for a moment and said, "It seems that the kang is quite complicated, but it would be nice if it really was a kang."

Both of them are from the north and miss the big kang in the welfare home very much.

Shen You continued to marinate the meat.

Pork belly has alternating layers of fat and meat, making it perfect for marinating and smoking meat.

Shen You cut two pounds of pork belly into shredded meat, two pounds of pork belly into slices, and one pound of pork belly into chunks.

Put the shredded meat in one bowl, the sliced ​​meat in one bowl, and the cubed meat in another bowl.

The shredded pork and meat cubes are marinated with salt, sugar, vinegar, ginger and garlic.

The Shen family only had a big iron pot, so Shen You used a clay pot to cook the meat. The meat was done when it turned brown.

This piece of meat is best cooked into Dongpo pork.

The Shen family had an iron pot and a clay pot, and the iron pot was steaming rice.

Shen You made some dessert first.

There were no ovens in that era, so Shen You planned to make pancakes.

Prepare a bowl, put eggs, water, sugar, flour in a certain proportion, and then add Shen You’s homemade baking soda.

The rice was almost done, Zhou Ning opened the pot and poured the rice into a large bowl.

Shen You put the pancakes aside and started to make Dongpo pork.

Put the pork belly chunks into the pan, fry out the excess fat, and fry on all sides except the skin and bottom until golden brown.

Shen You took the white thread and asked Zhou Ning to tie up the pieces of pork belly to prevent them from falling apart.

Put rock sugar and water into a ceramic pot, and Shen You slowly boil them until they become thick syrup, then serve the syrup.

After boiling, add half of the water to dilute it.

Shen You cleaned the pottery jar, put in ginger and green onion, then added rock sugar water, soy sauce, and finally the pork belly, and then boiled it.
