Come on!Foodie!

What do you do after taking a hot shower?Of course it was cooking.Although Xiaoyang now lives by the stove every day, he still has to eat.Especially when he harvested tomatoes today, some of the bean seedlings crawling on the wall in the backyard were as long as human fingers.There are also eggplants under the bean seedlings, and several edible sizes can also be found.Xiaoyang deeply felt that this place is really amazing! "It's amazing! There are edible fruits at this time! Where we are, some of them will take a month to grow like this!"

But Zhu Hai didn't take it seriously: "I don't know about the tomato. But beans and eggplants are like this, maybe the weather in your hometown is different from here." The casual answer does not mean that he doesn't care about Xiaoyang's happiness. Daughter-in-law, how can you be so happy about something big.

Xiaoyang sighed, "Why don't we say that this place is different! I think the soil is also very fertile. Let's not talk about it. I will cook. After eating, I have to figure out what materials to buy for the banquet. Sigh! It's another A lot of money! It’s really not enough to spend!”

Zhu Hai smiled: "Don't worry, when our three old sows give birth next month, they will grow to be able to sell dozens of taels."

Xiao Yang quickly shook his head: "Don't even think about selling them all! If you want to keep more breeding pigs, you have to fill up all the pig pens in the yard!" Thinking about the prospect of raising pigs in the future, his face is really good. Immediately raised a smile.Then I thought about the rabbit nest that had been filled with three layers, and there were two female rabbits with cubs in the hole.Xiao Yang felt even more satisfied.He decided that meat and furs were more valuable for cute things.When the rabbits grow up, they make smoked rabbits that don't need to be used as breeding rabbits. When the skins are ready, ask Mrs. Xianghua to make hats and coats, and sell them to rich people for sure.

Perhaps because they noticed the "insidious" attempt of their owner, the rabbits in the rabbit nest in the distance suddenly broke into a commotion.It provoked the contempt of the two hens who were walking in the yard.Sure enough, the guys who are locked up are the most likely to lose their composure!

Looking at the [-] large and ripe tomatoes that were picked, Xiao Yang became entangled.If you pick too much, you won't be able to eat it today.Then I thought I still had some rock sugar, so I made tomato sauce!Tomorrow, I will try pot-packed meat. If it is successful, I must give it to Mrs. Xianghua for a try!It's a pity that there are not many tomato seeds. He and Mu Mu's family are half, and more than half of the tomato seeds are to be saved.It would be nice to be able to eat it by himself, otherwise he would want to cook it in the store and sell it!

Xiao Yang said what was in his heart, and Da Zhuang smiled slightly: "A lot of them are popular anyway. Let's put a dish made of tomatoes on the wedding banquet. If everyone says it's delicious, some people will be happy. Planting. When the time comes, harvest the seeds and distribute them to those who are willing to plant them, and next year there will be more. We don’t have to worry about not paying back, just accept [-]% of their fruits.”

This idea is actually correct.How much can you grow yourself.It's better to do as Da Zhuang said.It's just that he was a little vague.What if next year's seeds cannot be planted.In order not to be scolded, it's better to be on the safe side. After harvesting the seeds, try planting a pot in the house.Anyway, as long as there is temperature, these crops can grow.Otherwise, what's the deal with the greenhouse.Forget it, let’s make tomato sauce first!Hmm...the sauce is ready, let's fry some French fries for dinner!Let your big brother try it too!

In fact, it is quite easy to make tomato sauce. This is not related to various additives, and the storage time is not long.The easiest way is actually to add lemon juice, which Xiaoyang does not have.But he has dwarf oranges, and he has planted two rows of oranges in front of and behind the house. This kind of fruit that bears fruit all year round is really very useful.He used it instead of lemon juice when making jam before, and the antiseptic effect is also good.So I used it to play as usual today.

Wash the tomatoes to remove the floating soil on the surface, and then put them in a large pot, using the hot water left over from the bath just now, which is only about 3 to [-] degrees now.Cover the lid and wait for two or three minutes, the skin of the tomatoes will crack by itself, and some of them will be curled and peeled off.Take out the tomato and remove the skin, then cut it into small pieces, and the next job is to take the rolling pin.No way, the juicer absolutely does not exist here and now.It seems that it is necessary for Brother Erbao to try the hand-cranked juicer in the future?

Ten large tomatoes were crushed into puree and juice at a very fast speed.Of course, it is impossible to make it so uniform like a juicer, but Xiaoyang thinks that the taste with a little pulp is also good.Pour these purees and juices into a small pot, and the next step is to boil.When boiling, add rock sugar, add a little less salt, and wait for the puree in the pot to thicken into a "sauce" feeling, then squeeze in the juice of two short oranges, and you're done.Of course, the ketchup is still delicious when it’s cold, which is Xiaoyang’s preference.

The ketchup made from ten tomatoes filled a small jar, which made Xiao Yang quite satisfied.Use chopsticks to scoop out a little and put it in your mouth.Sure enough, it's sour and sweet, it's you! ! !So he quickly fed his family a big mouthful: "How is it? Is there more sugar or less?"

Compared with the pear, peach, and apple jams that I have eaten before, the taste of this tomato sauce is really different.The sour feeling is very obvious, but it doesn't pierce the tongue at all.The sweetness in the aftertaste also has a distinctive fragrance.Unspeakably so likable. "I think it's just right, sweet and sour. This seems to be easier to make than apples and pears." At least the time is short, and the process of crushing the pulp is also very easy.

Xiao Yang grinned and said, "Not only is it easy to cook, but it's also delicious! By the way, what did you buy today?"

Zhu Hai replied truthfully: "Three catties of potatoes, all the family has eaten. There are also three catties of pork ribs, and shopkeeper Tang even wrapped two big stick bones around me for nothing. There are also two catties of meat. I didn't buy more. The vegetables in the yard A lot of them can be eaten. And in two days, we have to prepare things for the wedding banquet. By then, we will have to buy a lot.”

I remember that before I left home, I still had half a box of potatoes. These days, this silly big man just made potatoes and ate them when he came home?Thinking of this, Xiao Yang felt distressed. "Then I'll make the ribs today. Stew them with this tomato. How about frying a bean with soy sauce for you?"

Seeing Xiaoyang's earnestly calculating face, Zhu Hai felt an itch in his heart.In this house, it doesn't matter how big it is, the important thing is that there must be someone there!Look, in the past nearly a month, no one has made a meal for me when I go home at night. It's better for the wife to be at home.Well, if it doesn’t work, just buy someone else?At that time, the daughter-in-law will be able to stay at home longer. "I like to eat whatever you cook."

The day of being able to go home is not as easy as imagined.But the joy of being married made the few people who had been running back and forth between the city and the village very motivated.After Brother Erbao finished packing the furniture, he and Zhu Hai started shopping for ingredients for the wedding banquet.You can't save much if you save two days of running water.But Zhou Tai's congratulatory gift helped them a lot.It was an old cow that had been slaughtered, and even the headband was complete.Of course, it can only be an old cow.

This congratulatory gift is really not light, but it is also an accident.Originally, Xiaoyang thought that it would not be enough to buy a pig for the running water mat. The key is that Lao Zhu's family has no pigs to slaughter.Xiao Yang couldn't bear to kill him like this.After all the calculations, it would be more cost-effective to buy half a cow. The amount of meat is similar, and the price is more than half cheaper.Although less beef is sold, it is not impossible to find it.The key is that Xiaoyang has the confidence to make the old beef soft and tasty.This kind of old beef that is forbidden to stew is really suitable for the water table.As long as you can spare the firewood.

So at first Zhu Hai and Xiao Yang went to Zhou Tai's house to announce the good news, and secondly they hoped that Zhou Tai would contact them to see if there was anyone who happened to sell old cows.When he heard that the two of them were about to get married and have a banquet, Uncle Zhou patted his chest immediately.And said that they would give them a slaughtered cow as a gift.Xiaoyang refused to take it at first, because a full-grown cow would weigh more than 800 catties no matter how old and weak it is.Even if Zhou Tai is not short of money, the weight is too much.But Zhou Tai's temperament is that if he says one, he must be one, and if he says two, he must be two.In the end, Zhu Hai took his wife and thanked him.

After leaving Zhou's house, Xiao Yang glared fiercely at Da Zhuang.Keep yelling how much the gift is and put it aside first, just come to report the letter like this and ask for a cow for something, as if you came here intentionally to ask for it.What a shame!It's not that Zhu Hai didn't feel awkward, but he knew Zhou Tai's character well, and it wouldn't be good to be impatient.So I had no choice but to comfort my daughter-in-law: "If you want to give it away, you have to accept it, right? Besides, they said it was a congratulatory gift for our two families. Besides, if you think the meat is too much to use, just make some of the beef jerky from last time." .I’ll send it to Uncle Zhou when I’m done, and I’ll send some other things.” Xiaoyang pursed his lips, but that’s all he could do.

Of course, this does not mean that there is no need to buy pork when there is beef, but I bought a little less than the original plan, from a head and a half to a head.You must know that pork stewed vermicelli noodles are absolutely indispensable at the banquet in the village.The key is to have one chicken per table.It seems that this time they have to buy forty or fifty.Fortunately, there are quite a few people raising chickens in the village, and ordering them in the village is cheaper than selling them in the city.

Through the experience of the banquet team last time, Xiao Yang deeply learned that the banquets here are mainly meat-based.Otherwise it is a faux pas.In fact, except for those who raise pigs like my own, and Comrade Zhu Hai who has savings and loves meat, other people's daily meat intake is definitely not so large.People follow suit, if you don't let people eat their mouths full of oil, you won't be blamed if you don't get stabbed in the back.

Still the same sentence, do as the Romans do, no matter how tired Xiaoyang feels, he has to be prepared.Pigs, cows and chickens have already been ordered.The must-have dish is fish.It is a local custom to have a red carp for a happy event.Aunt Niu also asked Mrs. Xianghua to tell Xiaoyang.But the price of this red carp is much more expensive than ordinary carp, but there is no way but to buy it.But when buying fish, Xiao Yang took a look at the things in the nearby Shanghai stalls, and after asking, he found that sea fish was much cheaper than river fish.Especially the kind of big head fish, which is three points cheaper than buying in winter.So Xiaoyang waved his hand and immediately decided to buy twenty big-headed fish.Of course, don't think that he uses it in wedding banquets.More than half of this is used to make fish meal.Who makes it cheaper to buy now.

In addition to purchasing meat, vegetables and drinks, you have to buy firecrackers.After comparing the new year's price with the current price, Xiaoyang feels quite satisfied.It was the four big red candles that shocked him.Three hundred texts each.What a fool!The small ones on the side are also red, and they only cost fifty cents apiece.Isn't it just a few rounds thick!

However, the words of the boss are impeccable: "Hey! This is a marriage, once in a lifetime. You have to use the best? Don't listen to the two of you, it's three hundred yuan a piece, but this candle is two times as deep. The dragons are all painted with gold powder. The price is already very cheap!"

whispering sound!If it's really gold powder, how can you sell it to us so cheaply?Don't think that the young master has never seen gold!Although I couldn't afford it before, I have entered the gold shop several times!That is not a class gloss!But if you complain, you still have to buy it.Anyway, it is true that marriage is only once in a lifetime.Of course, with Xiaoyang's temper, it's unrealistic not to go around after buying something.Finally, after several rounds of "negotiations", the shopkeeper finally reluctantly gave Xiaoyang twenty red papers.As for what to use?Cut the word hi!A ready-made happy letter is five cents, but the red paper is free for him now! ! !
