After being exiled, she married a rough man, and the sickly beauty was spoiled
Chapter 25 Pay off the debt
While A'mo was mincing the meat, Song Huiling took a large bowl, beat four eggs into it with one hand, beat them evenly with chopsticks, and then added some water and continued stirring.
She planned to make egg tofu, which means the eggs are as tender and smooth as tofu. To achieve this effect, the natural way is to make it into egg custard.
The secret to tenderness and smoothness lies in three things being moderate: add a moderate amount of water when beating the eggs, use a moderate amount of heat when steaming the egg custard, and use a moderate amount of time to steam the egg custard. All three are essential.
If you want the egg custard to taste less monotonous, you can add some minced meat and mix it with eggs, water and a little salt.
At that time, scoop a hot spoonful of the steamed egg custard onto the rice, stir it a few times, and then scoop it into your mouth. Chew the moist and soft rice and the meat wrapped in the egg custard together. The delicious, tender, slightly salty and fragrant wonderful taste will make you unable to stop, one mouthful after another.
After the yam was cooked, Song Huiling took it out and put it on the chopping board, then put the mixed meat and eggs into the pot and steamed it over high heat.
After the yam was cooked, Song Huiling cut it into small pieces one inch long evenly according to the width of the tofu skin he had just cut. Then, together with A'mo, they wrapped the cut yam pieces with tofu skin one by one. After a while, they were put into the oil pan and taken out after the tofu skin was fried crispy. When you take a bite, you will find that it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The cooked yam has a dense texture when you chew it.
After the rice was cooked, Song Huiling took down the steamer and lit a new frying pan. After the pan was hot, he scooped a spoonful of lard and moved it around the pan. All the lard on the iron spoon melted into the pan.
After the oil was heated, it made a sizzling sound. She put the chopped pork into the pot and stir-fried it quickly. After a while, the pork shrank and began to turn white and harden. She then put the chopped water chestnuts into the pot and stir-fried them with the pork. She added a little salt and continued to stir-fry for a while. Then she scooped a bowl of water into the pot and covered it with a lid.
After the meat and water bamboo in the pot are simmered in water for a while, add some white sugar and simmer until it melts. The dish with tender meat and sweet water bamboo is ready.
As for the remaining half bag of vegetables, just wash them and cook a simple vegetable soup.
The fragrance wafted from the kitchen, and Song Huiling's appetite was aroused. She asked A'mo to take out the cooked dishes first. Turning her head, she saw him squatting in front of the low table, sniffing the egg custard in front of him.
The corner of Song Huiling's eye twitched. He put his two paws on the low table, stood on his heels, and stuck out his tongue. He was no different from the greedy lapdog.
Song Huiling waved the iron spoon in front of his eyes and said, "If you want to eat, just sit on the stool and eat with the bowl. What's the use of squatting like this? If someone doesn't know you, they would think you are a greedy dog waiting for someone to feed you."
Ah Mo's face turned red, and he stood up obediently from the ground, carrying the egg custard out of the kitchen. However, as he walked, he couldn't help but put his nose close to the bowl and sniffed it several times.
Song Huiling shook his head again. This child is really not very smart.
I had been planning to save some leftovers for when I set up the stall tomorrow, but suddenly there was one more person and not only could I not save any, there wasn’t enough to go around.
Song Huiling didn't expect that she herself was a glutton, and it turned out that the little mute she picked up was also a glutton!
He Zhan only eats three or four bowls of rice, but A'mo is still not full after eating the sixth bowl!
Seeing that the rice in the steamer was almost gone, Song Huiling raised his hand and knocked away A'mo's hand that was about to hold the rice spoon.
When Ah Mo looked at her with a puzzled look, she glared at him fiercely and said fiercely: "I only ate two bowls. If you eat more, I will have nothing to eat!"
Ah Mo withdrew his hand angrily, looked at the food on the table, swallowed his saliva, and reluctantly put down his bowl and chopsticks.
Song Huiling is a great cook, and Yang felt warm in the stomach and comfortable after eating the food. But she couldn't help frowning, tightening the corners of her lips, and feeling a little amused.
Is it because the He family has bad feng shui that they attracted starving ghosts? Why are all the people who enter the He family so greedy?
After dinner, Song Huiling prepared the fillings for tomorrow's stall as usual.
With A'mo as a tool, she and Yang can save a lot of trouble today.
Ah Mo was in charge of chopping the stuffing, and she guided him on the proportions when he wanted to add peanuts and walnut kernels. He was also responsible for packing the jars and loading the food onto the truck.
When it was time to go to bed after finishing her work, Song Huiling went to the east room and moved all her few belongings to the west room. She suddenly felt relieved. She would not be afraid even if He Zhan suddenly came home. He couldn't go to the west room and drag her back, right?
The heavy stone in her heart was put down, but when she lay in the same bed with Yang, she actually couldn't sleep. She stared in the darkness with her big eyes, not wanting to sleep at all. Beside her, Yang was tossing and turning.
Two people who were used to sleeping alone suddenly had someone lying on their side, and they couldn't get used to it at once.
Seeing that Yang was not asleep either, Song Huiling felt really bored, so she started chatting with her: "Mom, are you still not asleep? Is there something on your mind?"
Yang turned over and faced her: "Mother, I think it is necessary to buy another bed for the family."
Song Huiling couldn't agree more and nodded vigorously in the darkness: "One is not enough, at least two should be added."
It doesn't seem like He Zhan would agree to sleep in the same bed with A'mo.
Yang also nodded and said, "We need to change the steamer to a bigger one. You and Ah Mo are both big eaters."
Song Huiling: "..."
Just as he was speechless, he heard Yang turn over and sigh in the darkness: "Hui Ling, is there any way to keep Ah-Mo? The He family is really small, and Ah-Mo is a child with a pure mind, down-to-earth and hardworking. It would be great if he could stay in the He family openly."
Song Huiling was silent for a while and then said, "Then the He family's house needs to be replaced with a bigger one. It would be best if it is demolished and rebuilt."
The reason why the He family and other families in Yuntun Village built stone houses is that stone is the most abundant resource in the area around Qingyuan County, and it is most economical to build houses using local stones. Stone houses also have another great advantage: they are warm in winter and cool in summer, but the lighting is not very good.
Song Huiling doesn't like rooms with poor lighting. After staying there for a long time, she always has the illusion that she is a rat in the gutter that cannot stand the sunlight.
"That's going to cost a lot of money." Yang sighed, almost talking to herself, "I have to pay off the debt first."
Song Huiling's sharp ears caught the key information and blurted out, "Debt? What debt?"
Yang remained silent for a while before she said in a muffled voice, "Did mother say this word? Huiling, you must have heard it wrong."
She yawned at an inopportune moment, and her voice was a little too obvious as she said, "Hui Ling, I'm tired, so I'm going to sleep first. I still have to go to the stall tomorrow, so don't stay up too long."
The air suddenly became quiet. After a long while, Song Huiling raised her finger and gently poked Yang: "Mom, are you really asleep?"
She was responded by a series of sudden snoring sounds.
It's a bit too much...
