reborn as a brother

Although it was hot in July, fortunately it didn't rain much, so the millet was harvested safely and dried.

Into August, the first day, it rained.

The weather became cooler in an instant.

Ji Anyi and Wang Xiaoer moved a stool, and sat at the door of the house in a daze, watching the rain fall outside the house, hazy the whole world.

The two puppies nestled quietly at their feet, and the ewe lay down next to the wall under the eaves.

Twelve chickens and ducks occupied the eaves at the back of the house, and Ji Anyi specially closed the back door of the kitchen to prevent them from entering the kitchen and making it dirty everywhere.

Ji Anyi was in a daze, thinking about business.Wang Xiaoer was in a daze, purely looking at his daughter-in-law in a daze.

As for two dogs and one ewe, I don't know.

Ji Anyi has been a little worried recently.

After the mature period of apricots, it is difficult to see apricots in the market. He collected all the apricots in the village, including those from the village head's house, and made them into jam.

Without jam, relying solely on vegetables and dried radish, the income was cut in half.

He had to figure out a way to make up for the proceeds from the jam.

It's just that it's only a short while ago, and I really can't figure it out.

The small dirt road between villages in Hexi Village is solid, and even if it rains heavily for three days, the road will not be too muddy.

Liu Xiu was wearing a coir raincoat, a bamboo hat, and straw sandals on her feet, and she was not afraid of getting wet. With two freshly caught fish in her hand, she ran to Wang's house excitedly.

Started shouting from afar. "Ji Geer."

Since the family is not so busy, he likes to stay with Ji Anyi last time, it's much more fun than at home.

"Why do you come here when it's raining? The rain will stop after a while." Ji Anyi got up quickly, went into the kitchen and took out a dry cloth towel.

Liu Xiu took out the bamboo hat, her hair was a little wet, but there was nothing serious about it, and she handed over the fish in her hand with a smile on her face. "My brother caught several of them, Ah Mo asked me to send two of them."

After finishing speaking, he took the cloth towel in Ji Anyi's hand with the other hand, wiped his face and hair indiscriminately, and said in his mouth. "Ji Geer, I will go home in the evening."

"Yes. Take off the coir raincoat." Ji Anyi responded and poured him a glass of water.

Liu Xiu, who took off the coir raincoat, felt a lot more relaxed. She drank water with a smile, and then squatted at the door of the house, and took two straws to play with the dog.

"Brother Ji, let me tell you, the apricot is gone, so there should be no need to make this maltose."

About this matter, Ji Anyi originally wanted to wait for the rain to stop, and went to tell Liu Ah Mo, but when A Xiu asked, he nodded. "The maltose is not needed for the time being."

The two chatted casually.

Not long after, Zhong San came over, holding a pot in his hand.

At this time, the rain was a little lighter, but it was still falling.

Grandma Zhong San didn't stay for long, didn't even pick up the bamboo hat, just said a few words, took the money and returned it in a hurry.

After he left, Ji Anyi went into the kitchen and prepared to find a proper place for the jars on the table.

The rest of his eyes caught sight of the two fish brought by Axiu, and for some reason, he was a little dazed.

After a while, he came back to his senses inexplicably.

Then, he thought about the various sauces that are common in supermarkets in modern times.

Could he also figure out a dish, fish sauce...

Ji's family has a pond, if you can really figure out a delicious fish sauce...

"Ji Ge'er, why are you staring at this fish?" Ji Ge'er didn't reply for a long time, Liu Xiu was bored, and when he looked back, Ji Ge'er stood blankly with a jar in his arms, looking at the two fish. Yu, he smiled a little... silly.

Ji Anyi came back to his senses, he laughed, he laughed.

Even more stupid.

"It's nothing, I just thought about something." Putting the jar away, Ji Anyi replied.

He was thinking in his heart that the experiment would start tomorrow morning, and now, he had to think about all the sauces he had eaten and seen in modern times.

Towards evening, the rain finally stopped and the sky was much clearer.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu Xiu put on a bamboo hat and took a coir raincoat, waved to Ji Anyi and walked home.

Ji Anyi's hands were itchy, but he couldn't hold it back, he got into the kitchen and began to think about the fish sauce.

Fish heads are definitely not acceptable, nor are fish tails.

With two sharp knives, the fish head and tail will be the dinner tonight.

Looking at the piece of fish in the middle, Ji Anyi held the knife, not knowing what to do next.

Wang Xiaoer stood aside, looking at his daughter-in-law with doubts and curiosity on his face.

When Wang Baoer came over, she was a little dazed looking at the scene, then looked at the sky, and thought, this dinner is too early, these two are getting more and more childish.

"Dinner will be made at this time. If the villagers know about it, they will laugh at you two." Several strides into the kitchen, Wang Baoer said, dumbfounded.

When Ji Anyi heard this, he smiled awkwardly, and quickly explained to himself. "No. Brother, it's just right that you are here. I'm thinking about making fish sauce."

In July, their family was the most leisurely. They ate dinner early and stayed under the eaves to enjoy the shade. People in the village would make fun of them, saying that their life was like playing house. Just a nice joke.

"Fish sauce?" It's not enough to have dinner all night, Wang Baoer was relieved, and after hearing the new words, he was stunned again, and looked at Ji Anyi in a daze.

"If you don't have apricots, you can't make jam. Seeing that your income has been reduced by half, it just so happens that you will be fine this time, so you want to come up with a new idea. In the afternoon, Amo Liu asked Axiu to send two fish over. Ama Zhong San also I came up with such an idea when I gave you chili sauce, but..." As he said that, Ji Anyi laughed dryly.

He has only eaten this fish sauce, but he has never cooked it.

Wang Baoer felt unreliable when he heard it, but he didn't say anything to break it. These things are not worth a lot of money. If Ji Geer wants to think about it, let him think about it. Maybe there is a good way out. "What are you going to do? I can make soybean paste."

"Soya bean paste." Ji Anyi's eyes lit up. "Brother, can we make fish and soy sauce together?"

"No way..." Wang Baoer replied hesitantly. "This fish smells fishy, ​​and it will spoil the taste of soybean paste."

However, the more Ji Anyi thought about it, the more he felt that it was a good thing. "No, although the fish has a fishy smell, it can enhance the freshness. Maybe, adding fish to this soy sauce will make the taste more mellow and delicious."

"Do you want to try?" Wang Baoer asked, which also made sense.

Ji Anyi nodded without hesitation.

"Sure, wait, there's still some soy sauce at home, I'll get it." Saying that, Wang Baoer went out.

Not long after, he came over with a small jar.

"What do you want to do?" Wang Baoer frowned as she put the jar on the stove and looked at the piece of fish, with the fishy smell entering her nostrils.

He really couldn't imagine what it would be like to mix fish with soy sauce.

These words made Ji Anyi questionable.

He looked at the fish, picked up the knife subconsciously, and tried left and right, but he didn't know how to do it.

It was Wang Baoer who watched and said something. "This fish has bones, so it's not easy to fix."

"I see." Ji Anyi turned his head and smiled at Wang Bao'er, his eyes sparkling. "Brother, let's cut the fish into small pieces, clean the spines a little, then put it in a jar, and add some chili sauce in it. By the way, crush the peppercorns and put some in it to remove the fishy smell."

Soybean paste is salty, quite strong, and slightly sweet. It can't be eaten too much, and it's not very delicious.If you put the fish in and add some chili sauce and pepper powder, the taste will change and become a fresh and spicy taste.

Of course, the above are all taken for granted by him. The truth is still to be determined.

In fact, he prefers to chop the meat into meat sauce and put it in soy sauce, which may be more effective, but it will be exhausting, so try the first idea first, and then fine-tune it if the taste comes out.

With Wang Baoer helping, the fish pieces were quickly cleaned up.The size of the fish is very small, just like the little fish.

Next, put the fish into the jar with soybean paste, and then add some chili sauce into it. Zhong San's chili sauce is very well chopped, and Ji Anyi likes it very much.

On the other side, Wang Baoer brought over the crushed pepper powder. The smell of pepper is very fragrant and can stimulate the secretion of saliva.

When he was crushing peppercorns just now, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva twice. Suddenly, he felt that the fish sauce that Ji Ge'er was contemplating this time might really be successful.

There is no need to put salt or something, the soy sauce is quite salty.

Stirring evenly with a spoon, when it felt almost done, Ji Anyi withdrew his hand, covered the jar, and put it in a proper corner. "Brother, how many days do you think is suitable for marinating?"

"Ten days." After thinking about it, Wang Baoer replied.

When Ji Anyi heard this, he felt confident. "That's half a month." After a pause, he looked at the sky, which was a little dark. "Brother, let's have dinner at home today."

Wang Baoer smiled and shook her head. "I came here just to see you two. I'll go back first if there's nothing else to do. If the fish sauce smells out, I'll tell you how to make soybean paste. Just in time, your pond will be useful."

"Hey." Ji Anyi smiled. "I don't know if it can be done, let's see first."

With that said, the two left the kitchen.Then, seeing them all at almost the same time, Ji Aqiang walked over from a distance, and when he got in front of them, he called out to Ji Anyi first. "Ji Geer." Then his eyes fell on Wang Baoer, and he took his hand while talking. "Bo'er, you're home."

Looking at Ji Aqiang, Ji Anyi couldn't help but tease him. "Brother Ah Qiang is here to pick up his wife."

Ji Aqiang glanced at him, and actually answered seriously. "En. Pick up the wife." After speaking, he pulled Wang Bao'er and left.

Wang Baoer followed his footsteps, turned her head and smiled at Ji Anyi, and Ji Anyi also showed a big smile.

He felt that after returning home that time, the two of them must have talked, exchanged their hearts or something, otherwise, Ji Aqiang would not have such a big change, as if he suddenly opened up.
