[US Entertainment] The Legend of Shen Nong Heroes
Chapter 73 Family Gatherings
~~~~~ German hairy crabs and American carp are actually not delicious~~~~~
James drove the car and took his son and wife to go fishing.They came to Lake Houston, got into a small boat and headed upstream to a river.
"What kind of fish are there here?" Although Yuexi asked about the species, her mind was full of pictures of boiled fish, pickled fish, and boiled fish.
"There are a lot of Asian carp, but no one eats them." James replied, he controlled the speed of the boat, and slowly slowed down when he reached the fishing spot.
Although the speed was not fast, many fish in the river were still surprised and jumped out of the water.
"Wow!" Yue Xi was taken aback, and quickly pushed Li to the front of her, so as not to be slapped in the face by those jumping fish.
The Asian carp mentioned by James is not just carp, but a general term for herring, grass carp, silver carp and other fish.Because these freshwater fish have many thorns, they don't eat them, so the flood has become like this.However, large rivers and lakes in the United States have the problem of heavy metal pollution, and many aquatic animals and plants are not suitable for consumption, which makes the US environmental protection organization a headache.
But the water quality of the small river that James brought here is very good. It is far away from the industrial center and upstream, so there is no problem of pollution.
"This way you don't need to fish at all, and you can get several in just one net." Yue Xi glanced at the compound bow she picked, not knowing what to do with it.
"Would you know it?" Li picked up the bow and made two casual gestures.
"Of course." Yue Xi wrinkled her nose at Li, actually underestimating her.She took the bow and pulled the string hard, "It's so heavy..."
"Let's change the fishing rod." Li snatched the bow again, and stuffed a fishing rod into Yuexi's hand.
Yue Xi pouted, but still complied with him.Shooting fish with a bow and arrow, she's not Legolas.
There are really a lot of fish in the river, but most of them are Asian carp that they don't eat.As soon as the Yuexi hook was thrown down, fish were immediately hooked.So they've been busy taking the hooks and throwing the fish back into the river.One out of ten fish is very good.
"Actually, we can make boiled fish to eat." Yue Xi licked her lips, she was really reluctant to part with those fish.
"Will you?" Li smiled and threw another grass carp back.
"You can learn it!" Yuexi bumped Li with her elbow, and didn't save her any face in front of her father-in-law.
"With that food blogger in Germany?" Li didn't feel any pain at all, he gave up fishing and just waited to throw the silver carp that Yuexi was about to pull up.
"Yes, she is now the wife of the captain of the German team." Yuexi didn't have time to watch the World Cup this year, but she was not a die-hard fan, and it was enough to watch the news.
"The German team? What sports? Basketball? Rugby? Or table tennis?" Although Li himself likes sports, he doesn't know what sports the Germans like.
"Football!" Yuexi pulled the silver carp up, and she looked at the lively silver carp in the net, and she was really reluctant to throw it back into the river, "Is it boiled or pickled cabbage?"
"One boiled and one sauerkraut." James was carrying a grass carp, and he really had to lose to these guys.
"Grass carp, you can make grilled fish." Yue Xi swallowed her saliva as she said, she had been hungry for too long.
However, none of the methods mentioned by Yuexi can be mastered by newcomers, but since they were caught by themselves, let's try them out.
James took the fish home first, and Yuexi and Li went to downtown Houston to buy seasoning.
Everywhere, there are Chinese people.And where there are Chinese, there are all kinds of spices and condiments.
While flipping through Mu Jianguo's private recipes on her mobile phone, Yuexi directed Li to buy various ingredients.Li, who has already learned a lot of Chinese dishes, is quite comfortable doing this kind of thing.
The two of them drove home quickly with a few large bags of spoils.In the evening, William and Sally will come back specially to have dinner with her, the future sister-in-law.
Back home, Yuexi found that James had processed the fish, removed the scales, cut off the head and tail, and removed the big bone in the middle.
Although boiled fish, fish with pickled cabbage and grilled fish don't need to do this, but James has already done it, and Yue Xi can only make do with it.She picks up the knife and fillets the fish with Li.The grilled fish is marinated with seasoning first, and then grilled later.
After working for a long time, I can finally put the fish into the pot.
In fact, Yuexi is very good at matching seasonings, and she can handle it well for a few taels.It's just that once she wants to use fire, she can't do it at all.
So the work of cooking the fish is entirely up to Li, he belongs to the kind of person who looks clumsy but makes delicious food.Of course, you can't ask for more about the appearance.
James took the grass carp to the yard to roast, and they kept three grass carp in total.But because Americans really don't know how to spit thorns, Yuexi simply made the stomach part, and the other thorns were used as fertilizer.
"Thank you, Cynthia, for cooking so many dishes." Charlotte looked at the three pots of fish on the table and said with a smile.
"I hope you like it, but it's a bit spicy." Yuexi said boldly. In fact, out of the three pots of fish, two pots were made by Li, and the grilled fish was made by James.
"We Texans are not afraid of anything!" James took a spoon and first scooped a piece of fish onto his plate.
"Yes, we Texans are not afraid of anything." Li also took the spoon and got a piece for Yue Xi.
Seeing this Western-style eating method, Yuexi couldn't help laughing.She took the fork and stuffed the fish into her mouth with difficulty.
Because Jianguo's recipe was originally improved, this fish is also very suitable for American tastes.But to Yue Xi, the smell is obviously a bit lighter.Moreover, she followed the recipes rigidly, but lost her soul, and could only be considered ordinary, not delicious.But the grilled fish is very good, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, very fragrant.
Li looked at Yue Xi's hand holding the fork, and laughed all of a sudden, "Oh, my dear, you use the chopsticks well, but I didn't expect the fork to be useless."
"It's these fish, they come from Asia, they are not used to knives and forks!" Yue Xi poked the fish with a fork, it was slippery, it was really hard to fork it, or it would break.The fish is not as delicious as Yue Xi imagined, and it is not as good as the big grass carp her father caught in the reservoir.
The whole family laughed, the meal was indeed a little strange.Fortunately, the fish was not bad, and everyone ate very happily.
After dinner, Charlotte cleaned Li's former room and let Yuexi and Li live in.
Yue Xi didn't rush to sleep, so she looked around, "Can I see your bookshelf?"
"Turn over casually." Li lay on the bed with his feet stretched out.He graduated from high school when he left home, and the bed was a bit small at that time.
Yuexi saw Li's graduation book and took it out, "Let me see what you were like when you were a child."
"No!" Li jumped up suddenly, hitting his head on the ceiling.He covered his head, jumped up and down in front of Yuexi, grabbed the graduation yearbook and put it on the top of the bookshelf.
"Why not?" Yuexi became more and more curious, she jumped up and hooked Li's waist with her feet, "Is there your first love in it?"
"She is indeed inside, but that's not the reason." Li hugged Yuexi's waist, but dared not let go.
"You answered so honestly, what kind of expression do you want me to use to respond?" Yue Xi's jealousy immediately came up, his first love might live next door.
"Hmm..." Li actually started to think seriously, and changed several expressions during the process.
"What an idiot." Yue Xi rubbed Li's hair, then raised her head and kissed his lips.
Li groaned, and fell asleep on the bed with Yuexi in his arms.But before the two could move, the bed creaked.
"Oh, my dad made this bed by himself. I slept on it for more than ten years..." Li's muscles were all stiff, and he looked like a teenager who was not yet full.
"Has anyone else come to sleep?" Yue Xi purposely sank her body and pressed down twice.
The creaking sound sounded again, Li quickly sat up, hugged Yue Xi and stood by the wall.
"That's pretty good." Yue Xi stretched out her hand and shook the bookcase beside her. A few books immediately slammed onto the wooden floor, "The only thing missing is the piano."
"My family can also buy a piano, if you also want to play the role of a celebrity assistant." Li suddenly realized what Yuexi was doing. Although he was not very good at thinking about women's psychological activities, Yuexi was his fiancée Well, the two of them have known each other for so long, so they should be able to figure out their temper.
"I didn't eat that aged vinegar." Yue Xi retorted weakly.
"Then what is your first love in high school?" Li lowered his head and pressed his forehead against Yuexi's forehead.
"You guys are kissing here?" Yuexi asked back, she hooked Li's neck with her hand, and rubbed it up with her strength, "Your door, right?"
"Yeah." Li smiled and answered honestly, "But it's just at the door of the house."
"You are really the only one who slept in this bed?" Yue Xi kissed Li's earlobe while talking, "Whoever lies will have his ears cut off by the moon."
"Yes." Li nodded, feeling a little pain in the base of his ears, "What kind of Asian magic is this?"
"Punish the unscrupulous." Yue Xi reached out to Li's waist, and pulled his crumpled shirt out of his belt.
"I will never." Li hugged Yuexi's waist with one hand and her leg with the other.He looked at his bed hesitantly, not knowing what to do now.
"You put it on the floor." Yue Xi smiled and patted Li's broad back.
"Okay." Li lay down helplessly, and he spread his hands and feet, looking like he was being slaughtered.
"I've never seen anyone so relaxed in their own home with their parents next door." Yue Xi burst out laughing, and then lay on Li's body.
"Instead of thinking about my parents' feelings, I'm more worried about another thing now." Li sat up again, hugging Yuexi's shoulder and said.
"Huh?" Yue Xi raised her eyebrows, and thought for a while, "Could it be that your younger brothers and sisters also like to eavesdrop?"
"Also?" Li frowned, shook his head and said, "No, I mean, well, there is no contraceptive at home."
"I've been taking medicine all the time, idiot." Yue Xi pinched Li's nose, she really took him.
"But I didn't see you eating today." Li said in a muffled voice.
"That's because..." Yuexi was at a loss for words for a moment, but Li unexpectedly noticed this small detail, "I finished eating... and forgot to bring..."
"Hmph..." Li was stunned for a moment, and then froze.
"Hmph, what, we are going to get married soon, what are you afraid of!" Yue Xi didn't think too much, she pushed Li to the ground again, and then quickly took off his shirt.
James drove the car and took his son and wife to go fishing.They came to Lake Houston, got into a small boat and headed upstream to a river.
