Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

This would not be good for their health, so knowing that the family preferred to eat fish, he naturally tended to cook fish.

After taking out two big carps from the space, Zhou Tian started to make a fire, heat the pot, and then began to prepare the ingredients.

Since the big carps in the space are all relatively large, Zhou Tian naturally did not plan to make only one dish. Instead, he planned to use one fish for multiple uses. The fish head can be used to make a Sichuan delicacy, chopped pepper fish head, or it can also be made into fish head tofu soup.

As for the fish body, it can be steamed or made into fish fillets, the fish tail can be braised or pan-fried, and the internal organs can be made into fish hot pot.

With the idea in mind, Zhou Tian started to get busy. He quickly cut the fish head and tail, cleaned the fish offal, and then started to cook them separately.

Speaking of chopped pepper fish head, it is rumored to have been invented during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty. Although its specific origins are no longer traceable, it has to be said that chopped pepper fish head is a very famous Sichuan dish.

The cooking method has continued to this day, and there are already several different ways to cook it, but the most famous one is to use fish head and chopped pepper as the main ingredients, and steam it with soy sauce, ginger, onion, garlic and other auxiliary ingredients.

The dishes made are bright red in color, rich in flavor, and tender in texture. They are fat but not greasy, soft and sticky in texture, and spicy and delicious.

Unfortunately, at this moment, there was no authentic chopped pepper in his space, only hot peppers. However, Zhou Tian didn’t care much about this, after all, compared to his cooking skills.

Chopping pepper is more of a supporting role. Although the chopped pepper fish head is not authentic, he is confident that the dish he makes is not worse than the chopped pepper fish head.

He picked up a few peppers and cut them into several pieces. He waited for the temperature in the pot to reach a certain level, then poured an appropriate amount of rapeseed oil into the pot. Then he cut some onions, ginger, and garlic and stir-fried them with the peppers.

Suddenly a rich fragrance spread.

I cut the fish head with fish meat into several pieces with a knife, then picked up the steamer and started steaming the fish head.

He also cut the fish body into several pieces, dissolved the salt in water and poured it on the fish pieces to let the salt absorb the flavor. After the fish head was steamed, Zhou Tian put it in a plate and then poured the hot oil and ingredients on it.

The chopped pepper fish head is out of the pot, followed by steamed fish fillets, braised fish tail, and fish hotpot. The whole kitchen is filled with the rich aroma of food.

"It smells so good, brother, are you eating fish today?"

Just when Zhou Tian had just finished preparing the last of the fish hotpot, his third brother Zhou Yu suddenly opened the door and walked in, sniffing hard in the kitchen and asking.

"Didn't you see? Okay, the kitchen is hot, you should get out first!"

When Zhou Tian saw that it was Zhou Yu who came in, he said unhappily and with some disgust.

"No, brother, I want to taste it!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu not only did not leave, but instead took a step forward to the stove, picked up the chopsticks and wanted to pick up the chopped pepper fish head.

"Snapped!"

Seeing Zhou Yu's chopsticks reaching for the plate, Zhou Tian immediately slapped his chopsticks and knocked them away. Then he said with a sullen face, "Get out. Do you know how to be polite? Grandpa and grandma, your sister-in-law and the others haven't eaten yet, and you're eating secretly now. Do you want people to say that our family is uneducated by doing this?"

Zhou Yu's face darkened when he heard this. He looked extremely aggrieved and said with tears in his eyes, "Brother, I just want to eat a little!"

"Eating even a little bit is not okay. I didn't blame you before, but you can't develop this habit. Although you are still young, why can't I be like you? It's okay once or twice, but you do it every time. If you grow up and someone invites you to dinner, will you still do this?"

"What do you want others to say about you? Do you really want them to hate you and say you have no manners?"

Zhou Tian said this without any emotion in his tone, still preaching.

In fact, he wanted to tell his younger brother about his greed more than once, but was stopped by his wife every time. He didn't care about it at first. After all, his younger brother was still young, so he didn't ask much of him.

But now he is almost twelve or thirteen years old. If he continues like this, he will be laughed at when he goes out. So today Zhou Tian did not agree with him and started to teach him.

"Brother, I was wrong!"

Zhou Yu listened to Zhou Tian's words and looked at his eldest brother's gloomy face. Being familiar with his eldest brother's character, he naturally knew that his eldest brother was really angry this time, and he quickly lowered his head to admit his mistake.

In fact, Zhou Yu is not stupid, and he is not really unaware of these things. It’s just that he has been spoiled by his elder brother and has not let him feel how important this matter is. But now after hearing what his elder brother said, he gradually realized the mistake of his behavior.

"Okay, it's OK as long as you know you were wrong. I can forgive you this time, but if it happens again, be careful or I'll beat you up!"

Seeing Zhou Yu's expression of admitting his mistake with his head down, his heart couldn't help but soften. After all, he treated Zhou Yu as his own child and they had a deep affection for each other. Now that he saw him admitting his mistake, he didn't say anything more.

"Okay, big brother!"

When Zhou Yu heard that his elder brother had forgiven him, he immediately looked up at his elder brother, then obediently left the kitchen.

After a while, when the rice was steamed, Zhou Tian brought out the dishes one by one.

After everything was served on the table and everyone was seated, Zhou Tian suddenly realized that as the three little ones grew up, the dining space at home seemed to have become smaller.

"Okay, let's eat!"

Perhaps it was because Zhou Yu did not shout and scream as usual after being taught a lesson by Zhou Tian, ​​but only started to use his chopsticks after seeing his grandparents eating with chopsticks first.

Everyone was extremely satisfied with the meal, and even the three little ones ate a lot of fish meat after being fed by their grandparents.

The three little ones smacked their lips frequently while eating, and after they finished eating, they followed their younger siblings and covered their stomachs with innocent smiles on their faces.

After dinner, Zhou Tian stopped cleaning up. He waited until his younger brothers and sisters had a good rest before he told them to start cleaning up. Now, through the incident with his third brother Zhou Yu, he felt that it was time for them to help with some housework.

This cannot go on any longer. Not to mention Zhou Yu, even Zhou Ting, if she gets married and doesn't know how to do housework, wouldn't that make her a laughing stock?

Zhou Tian and Shen Yulin coaxed the three little ones in the main room for a while before being sent back. Especially now that Shen Yulin was pregnant again, her grandparents didn't want her to be tired.

Even though he usually complained about his daughter's mother-in-law, he basically didn't say anything harsh now.

Back in the bedroom, Zhou Tian thought about what he had just said when he scolded Zhou Yu in the kitchen. For some reason, he always felt a little uncomfortable. He wanted to go up and talk to his brother again, but after thinking about it, he decided to wait until later.

It’s not that he doesn’t care about his brother, but he is not sure about Zhou Yu’s current condition and doesn’t want to disturb his rest.

"Boss, what's wrong with you today? Why do you look so absent-minded?"

Shen Yulin took off her clothes and lay on the bed, watching her husband walking around the room, sitting and standing up, and asked curiously.

"Ah? It's okay, it's okay!"

When Zhou Tian heard his wife's question, he immediately reacted and shook his head to deny it.
