Siheyuan: Mastery started in the 50s

The day before the negotiation, Wang Qiang got up early, sorted out his thoughts, and prepared to meet Jia Zhang. He decided to walk around the courtyard to experience the

The bustling scene in the market made Wang Qiang feel a little lively. He shuttled between the stalls, looking for fresh lotus roots. On several vegetable stalls, baskets of fresh lotus roots were neatly arranged. Wang Qiang walked to one of the stalls and looked at the brightly colored lotus roots, feeling satisfied.

"Boss, these lotus roots look good. Can you pick a few for me?" Wang Qiang asked, with a hint of anticipation in his tone.

The owner of the stall was a middle-aged man. Seeing Wang Qiang looking at the lotus roots seriously, he smiled kindly: "Of course, do you want to pick some special ones or ordinary ones?"

Wang Qiang thought for a moment and replied, "It's better to pick some fresh ones. I plan to make lotus root stewed with pork ribs."

The boss nodded, and skillfully picked out a few thick, smooth-skinned lotus roots and handed them to Wang Qiang: "These are all fresh. They will definitely be delicious if you take them back to make stews."

Wang Qiang took the lotus roots and felt their weight and firmness. He smiled and said, "Thank you, boss. These lotus roots look really good."

After buying the lotus roots, Wang Qiang returned home in a happy mood. He placed the lotus roots on the kitchen table, cleaned them carefully, and prepared to make delicious lotus root stewed with pork ribs. While preparing the ingredients, his thoughts could not help but return to the tense negotiation with Jia Zhang, and the worries and pressure in his heart were gradually replaced by the cooking process.

He carefully cut the lotus root into thick slices, paying attention to the uniformity and neatness of each slice. Then he began to process the ribs, cleaning them and blanching them to remove excess grease and impurities. While busying himself, Wang Qiang thought about the repair work and future plans, and his heart was filled with a sense of fulfillment.

While waiting for the stew to cook, Wang Qiang sat at the dining table and flipped through several old family albums. These albums recorded every bit of his growth, and there was an unknown story behind each photo. His fingers gently stroked the photos in the album, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes. Whenever Wang Qiang saw these old photos, he always felt a strong emotion, which made him cherish every memory of his family even more.

The aroma from the pot gradually spread, and Wang Qiang's mood became happy as the aroma rose. He swallowed his saliva involuntarily, his heart full of anticipation. Even after going through many difficulties and challenges, being able to concentrate on making his favorite dishes in the kitchen is a great relaxation and satisfaction.

After a while of stewing, Wang Qiang couldn't wait to open the lid of the pot. The soup inside had become thick, and the lotus root and pork ribs were stewed very well. He scooped a bowl of soup with a spoon, blew it gently to cool it, and tasted it. The rich aroma bloomed in his mouth, making him feel warm and satisfied instantly.

"This tastes so good." Wang Qiang murmured to himself with a satisfied smile on his face. He knew that this was not just a dish, but also a kind of emotional sustenance, which was his cherishment of his family and the good memories of the past.

While enjoying dinner, Wang Qiang sat at the table in a happy mood. His mind was temporarily pulled away from the busy work and complicated negotiations, and he focused on the peace and joy of this moment. Every bite of the dish made him feel inner peace and happiness, as if he had found the balance and comfort of life in this simple dinner.

Wang Qiang ate very satisfied, and gradually a new motivation emerged in his heart. He knew that there would be many challenges and tasks in the future, but these beautiful moments and simple happiness made him feel extremely precious. He decided to maintain this peaceful mentality to deal with various situations that might arise next.

After dinner, Wang Qiang cleaned up the kitchen and put away the dishes. He felt relaxed and happy, and his plans for the future became clearer and more determined. He knew that despite all the pressures and difficulties in life, as long as he maintained his inner peace and enthusiasm, he would be able to meet all the challenges in the future.

After a busy day of repair work, Wang Qiang decided to give himself a little reward. He opened the refrigerator and found that the ingredients were almost used up. His eyes fell on a fresh chicken wing, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, thinking of a simple but pleasant dinner - honey chicken wings. This idea immediately made his mouth smile, and his heart was full of anticipation.

Wang Qiang put on his coat, picked up his wallet, and walked out of the house. He decided to go to the market to pick up some fresh chicken wings and ingredients. In the market, he looked at each stall one by one, and finally found chicken wings at a meat stall. He walked to the stall and looked at the fresh chicken wings that had just been slaughtered, feeling relieved.

"Boss, these chicken wings look great. Can you pick some for me?" Wang Qiang said to the owner of the stall, with a hint of excitement in his tone.

The boss was a sophisticated middle-aged man. Seeing Wang Qiang's interest in the chicken wings, he smiled enthusiastically: "Of course, how many do you need? These chicken wings are just delivered from the slaughterhouse, so they are very fresh."

Wang Qiang thought about it for a while and replied, "Pick me a pound. I plan to make honey chicken wings."

The boss skillfully selected some fresh chicken wings, weighed them and handed them to Wang Qiang: "We just received these, they are guaranteed to be fresh. They will definitely be delicious when made into honey-glazed chicken wings."

Wang Qiang took the chicken wings, felt their weight and freshness, and was filled with anticipation. He said to the boss, "Thank you, these chicken wings look really good."

After buying the chicken wings, Wang Qiang continued to walk around the market and picked up some seasonings and ingredients, including honey, green onions, garlic cloves and some spices. His shopping cart was filled with various ingredients and seasonings, and his mood became more and more relaxed as he went shopping.

After returning home, Wang Qiang cleaned the chicken wings and placed them on the kitchen counter. He began to prepare all the ingredients for making honey chicken wings, his heart full of anticipation for the food and enthusiasm for the cooking process.

He first marinated the chicken wings with salt, black pepper and minced garlic for ten minutes, and then mixed honey, soy sauce, cooking wine and some spices to make a honey sauce. While busy in the kitchen, Wang Qiang's thoughts could not help but return to the recent events. He realized that although he had experienced a lot of pressure in work and negotiations, these simple family activities and food preparation made him feel much more relaxed.

Wang Qiang put the marinated chicken wings into the pot and fry them slowly over medium-low heat.
