The newly married reborn cold-faced boss dotes on his delicate wife
Chapter 59 Cooking together
When the newly bought pork arrived, Jiang Tingxia asked Li Changpu to use red-hot iron tongs to remove the hair from the pig's trotters, and put them in cold water together with the ribs to remove the blood. They had to soak them for at least one night.
For dinner today, I had pork tenderloin and pork liver. I steamed a pot of rice first, then cut the pork tenderloin into thin slices the size of my palm, and kept beating the meat slices with the back of a knife. I added onion, ginger water, eggs, and white wine, mixed them evenly and marinated them for a while. Then I coated the meat slices evenly with a layer of starch and fried them in a pan until golden brown.
Of course, Jiang Tingxia was afraid that the oil would splash on himself, so such a difficult task had to be handed over to Li Changpu.
After the pork chops were fried, Jiang Tingxia simply stopped working and stood aside, directing Li Changpu to add oil to the pan. He told him to fry the scallion whites first, then add the scallion leaves after a while, and finally put the pork chops on top.
Jiang Tingxia stood beside Li Changpu and watched. When the time came, he threw a handful of rock sugar into the pot, scooped a spoonful of soy sauce to adjust the color, and said to Li Changpu, the chef, "Add boiling water, enough to cover the ribs, and simmer for ten minutes until the juice is absorbed."
Jiang Tingxia leaned over and fanned the hazy steam towards herself, then said to Li Changpu with a bit of pride, "Follow my recipe. It smells good, right?"
Li Changpu saw her proud look, as if she had a fluffy tail behind her, wagging behind her.
He smiled lightly and said, "Mm, nice."
Jiang Tingxia was getting hungrier and hungrier, and was pacing around the stove anxiously.
Li Changpu followed Jiang Tingxia's instructions and found a water pipe to flush water on the pig liver until the liver turned from red to white. Then he took it back to show Jiang Tingxia.
Jiang Tingxia took a look at the condition of the pig liver, indicated that it was ready, and then cut it into thin slices.
After the chopped pork liver is drained of water, add ginger, white wine, salt, sugar, and pepper, stir evenly to remove the fishy smell and season.
Add the marinated pork liver and pork tenderloin to the thick white rice porridge, add shredded ginger, boil for a few seconds, and serve directly.
Jiang Tingxia filled a small bowl of pork liver porridge, stirred it until it cooled down, and placed it next to the cat's bed, "Big Dog, it's time to eat."
Li Changpu was serving rice. Because her back was facing Jiang Tingxia, she only heard Jiang Tingxia talking but didn't see her feeding the cat. She said casually, "Well, serve the rice and we'll eat."
Jiang Tingxia touched the big dog's head and smiled at Li Changpu, "I'm not talking to you, I'm talking to it."
Suddenly, Li Changpu coughed for no reason.
This cat's name should be changed.
Then he brought the plate to the table and said, "Stop touching the cat and come and eat."
Jiang Tingxia responded, washed his hands, ran to the table, picked up the chopsticks, took a large steak, took a bite, squinted his eyes in satisfaction, "Delicious."
She also called Li Changpu, "You should eat too, it's really delicious. This steak is my favorite dish."
Jiang Tingxia watched Li Changpu pick up her chopsticks with eager eyes. Normally, he was the most efficient eater, but under her gaze, he didn't know how to open his mouth.
He took a bite of meat very politely, which was very different from his usual big mouthfuls of food. Jiang Tingxia asked anxiously, "Is it delicious?"
The two had different tastes. Li Changpu didn't like sweet things. After chewing it twice, he still said, "It's delicious."
Jiang Tingxia took a big bite of the steak and said, "I told you it was delicious."
She ate contentedly, her eyes curved, and she said casually, "By the way, Zhang Qiannan invited me to her wedding today. Did Researcher Gu invite you?"
Li Changpu replied, "Yes, I will go that day too."
Jiang Tingxia looked distressed, "What do you think we should give them as a gift for their wedding?"
Li Changpu: "Just follow the local custom, each family will give one gift."
"There are also food coupons for the wedding banquet. I took them and handed them in together."
Jiang Tingxia: "Okay, in addition to these, I remember sending some daily necessities. I remember that some people sent us pickled vegetables, salted eggs, floral fabrics and so on."
Jiang Tingxia thought about it and suggested, "We still have some cotton left after making clothes from the cotton we bought last time. How about giving it as a gift?"
Li Changpu: "Sure, winter is coming soon, it will be useful."
Jiang Tingxia: "Okay, then pack the cotton and put it in a conspicuous place. Don't forget to take it when you go to the wedding."
Li Changpu: "Okay."
……
Chen Xiangdong limped into the courtyard. Wei Hongxia was shocked and hurried over to support him, asking, "What happened?"
Chen Xiangdong cursed twice, "Bah, my luck is bad today. I didn't make a single deal and the people from the Municipal Management Committee are targeting me."
Dabai Village is close to the mountains, and Chen Xiangdong's home is far away from the village, which is a perfect opportunity for him to sneak up the mountain to hunt. He originally wanted to catch some pheasants and rabbits to feed the elderly and children in his family. However, the elderly in his family fell ill in the past two years and the harvest was not good. The food distributed by the team based on the two laborers in his family was not enough for them to eat. So the couple thought about going to the black market to exchange some money to supplement the family income.
They were lucky before. Chen Xiangdong found a large natural pit in the mountains. He picked up the weak piglets that were born and no one wanted from various villages, put them in the pit, and raised them from childhood. In the end, three of them survived. Although they didn't grow big, each weighing about 120 to 130 kilograms, it would be a lot of money if they could be sold.
The worry is how to sell it?
After the pig is slaughtered, the meat can only be kept for a week or so at most. If it cannot be sold, it will be a waste of money, and they have no way to buy it wholesale.
Chen Xiangdong had no choice but to go to the black market. It was only the next day, but he had only sold half a pig when he was targeted by people from the Municipal Management Committee.
Wei Hongxia was so frightened that her face turned pale. If she was caught, she would be lucky if she didn't lose half her life.
She asked anxiously, "Then how did you get out?"
Chen Xiangdong was a little frustrated and said, "They kept chasing me. I had no choice but to throw the pork I brought behind me. A bunch of people went to pick it up and stopped the gang. That’s when I had a chance to run away. But I ran too fast and fell."
Chen Xiangdong sighed heavily, "It's a pity to lose the meat I brought with me, more than 20 kilograms."
Wei Hongxia helped Chen Xiangdong sit down, "Not getting caught is better than anything else."
Although she also felt sorry for the loss of meat, which was money, things had come to this point and there was nothing she could do. She could only say this to comfort Chen Xiangdong.
Wei Hongxia was still frightened by the fact that Chen Xiangdong was almost arrested, and said with lingering fear, "Don't do such things in the future. Our elderly and children depend on you for their survival. If something happens to you, what will happen to the family?"
Chen Xiangdong clenched his fists and said, "I am afraid too, but we still have two pigs. If we can't sell them, they will just be left on the mountain for the winter."
Wei Hongxia became anxious when she thought of this. The two pigs cost more than one hundred yuan, almost two hundred yuan, which was really a huge amount of money. Could they just watch the two pigs freeze to death on the mountain? They couldn't bear to eat them themselves, so they wanted to try their best to exchange them for some money.
Wei Hongxia suddenly thought of something, "Why don't you go to the town and sell it in the nearby village. The wives of the soldiers were very generous. After all, they are in the army and they are not short of money."
Chen Xiangdong had no choice but to agree and said, "I'm afraid the people from the Municipal Management Committee will recognize me. I can't go to the town these days. This is the only way for now."
