otherworldly happiness

Looking at the ingredients in the kitchen, I was really tired all day, and I didn't think about doing anything complicated. Now the meat and bones bought by Tianliang are fine tomorrow, so I took out the pork belly and took another The prepared chicken is here, ready to make pork belly chicken soup, to see if my skills in the modern kitchen are still there, besides, the soup with pepper, Codonopsis, Polygonatum and Lycium barbarum and other medicinal materials has the effect of tonifying deficiency and invigorating the spleen and stomach, suitable for Qi and blood deficiency, edible.This is a famous Hakka dish from Guangdong in the previous life

Rinse the pork belly with water and rub the outside repeatedly with salt and flour to clean its mucus. , Turn the pork belly over and use the same method, add salt and flour to grab the pork belly, then rinse it with water, repeat it several times until it is washed clean, and boil the water again to boil the pork belly , and then scrape off the white layer, so that it will be thoroughly washed

This time I was afraid that the time would be too late, so I didn’t make a complete chicken belly. I chopped the chicken into pieces, soaked it in water, cut the boiled pork belly into small pieces, put them together in a clay pot, and waited for the water to boil. Skim off the floating powder, add pepper, ginger slices, Codonopsis Polygonatum and wolfberry, etc., which are crushed with a knife, and simmer slowly on low heat.

At this time, stew the rice again. You can’t just eat this dish. I took three large potatoes, peeled and shredded them, and then soaked them in water. When I’m going to eat, I’ll add green onion, ginger slices, dried red peppers and stir-fry them. The hot and sour potato shreds are ready, the soup is still simmering on a low fire, let's take a rest.

The dishes at night were delicious for both of them. Li Jian's cooking made Wu You feel inferior again, and said directly, "I also know how to cook some porridge and add water to cook some soup, but I don't know how to cook. It’s just baking something, and I don’t know how to sew things to make clothes, and I let you cook in the kitchen, the rest of the house is made by Fu Lang.” His eyes were red when he said, “Am I too useless? "

Li Jian was helpless, "I didn't say anything, we can learn if you don't know how to cook, if you want to learn how to cook, I can teach you, you can eat better when I'm not at home, and wait until you get acquainted with the people in the village Find others to learn slowly, no one is born with it, besides, I am happy to cook, watching you eat the food I cook is more comfortable than eating by myself, it’s okay, whoever has you He is capable, and he can hunt and support his family, which is rare for me.”

After saying this, Wu You's face turned red, and she couldn't stop being sad.I feel that I should get better as soon as possible and learn slowly.

I had nothing to say all night, and the next day I went to the village chief's house to give some gifts, and said that my fiancé had moved in, and then I was busy for another day.

I bought all the firewood and charcoal for the winter, piled up two houses, enough to last until next spring, bought some vegetables and so on, and even pickled a vat of sauerkraut. I will pickle some side dishes when I have time, like It's pickled vegetables and pickles. Although it's not a good time for pickled vegetables, there are fewer varieties, but there are too few vegetables in winter, so we still need to find a way. The purchase in the village has also found out the basic situation of this small mountain village.

The villagers also knew that such a fiancé couple had moved in, and they said to the outside world that the boy was serving as a soldier here, and the younger brother's family suffered a disaster and came here to defect. It was impossible to enter the barracks, so they lived temporarily in the nearby village. Originally, Li Jian often followed the military doctor to Daqing Mountain to collect medicines, and some people had seen him before. He was familiar with him, but now he is even more familiar. Wu You hasn't recovered yet, and he can't come out. The people in the village are quite simple, No one came to make trouble, so I settled here while I was busy.

In the past few days, I have been drinking bone soup every day, with Gastrodia chicken soup and red date chicken soup in the middle. Anyway, I feel that I have drunk all the good ones. I smell delicious in the kitchen every day, with braised pork ribs and potato stew. The food was eaten, and the good rice and noodles in the space were raised. Even if Wu You didn't drink any more medicine, his complexion was getting better every day. Li Jian drank so much that his nose bleeds.

I didn't have much time, and I was about to go back to the barracks after packing up. I couldn't sleep in bed this night, and I couldn't feel at ease thinking about letting Wu You stay here, even though the horses at home had already been sent to the village head's house for some money to help raise them. Well, the family only needs to feed the few chickens that are laying eggs, but seeing how hard it is to raise them these days, I am afraid that he will lose weight if I am not here. If I don’t eat well, I won’t do it what to do?

Seeing Li Jian's distressed look there, Wu You kicked him angrily and said, "I'm stupid or something, I don't know how to eat such good things at home. I can’t do the dishes you cook, I can’t cook simple porridge and pancakes? I can’t put meat in a pot to stew? I’m so underestimated. Didn’t I learn something from you? I’ve already spent money to fetch water, and I don’t have any other heavy work. It doesn’t matter if I walk slower and clean up now. You should go back honestly.”

"Aren't I worried about yourself? Although I know people in the village, they are not that familiar after all. You didn't rest well along the way. You have just been raised for a few days, so don't stop. Continue. It’s good to take care of it, if the root of the disease stays, it will be troublesome.”

"What's this? It's delicious and delicious, and there's firewood to burn. The room is warm. It's like a dream compared to me before. Why don't you worry about it? I don't have anything to go out. It's really something." Can you spend money to find someone to help you? No, you left me a lot of money."

"Okay, I'll go to Changcheng again tomorrow to see what's missing at home. I've got everything I need. Last time I thought I bought a lot of things, but only after I used them did I realize that there are still some missing. Like pots, I need to buy two more. I also need to buy a bathtub, and I will exchange those unused leather goods for silver, and then I will get you some medicine and take care of it. I will leave the day after tomorrow. By the way, I will give you a dog. Even if I add an ear at night, it will also be a companion for you, and the caretaker of the nursing home is also good, what do you think?"

"I think it's very good. Although there is nothing to be afraid of, most people can't beat me, but I wanted to raise a good hunting dog before, and the mountain dog is even better, but I can't eat enough to feed me. This time I finally can Raised it, but it’s winter, it’s better to buy a half-sized one, unlike the big one, it’s not as afraid of the cold as the small one, it’s not good to freeze to death, you have to prepare the food You can’t use the good rice and noodles at home to feed it?” Wu You is looking forward to having a dog at home.

"Okay, go to sleep, I'll fix everything, but you have to worry about feeding it after buying it, and you have to train hard, so you can find something to pass the time."

In the early morning of the next day, Li Jian made breakfast and ate some, left the food in the pot and walked away. When Wu You got up, the sun was already high. Seeing that he was locked at home, he was not in a hurry. Anyway, he I didn't plan to go out, I ate, fed the chickens, and cleaned the house. There was nothing to do. It was the first time I was so leisurely when I grew up. I didn't have to worry about anything, and everything was arranged. What's missing? Just say it straight, you can buy whatever you want and bring ready-made ones, and you don’t have to worry about what to do if you run out of money. Why are the days so beautiful!It's really hard to let go.

Li Jian changed a lot of money here again. This time, he cleared all the fur stocks in the space. He didn't plan to sell them all. On the way to Changcheng, because I left early, I happened to meet a caravan camping on the side of the road and was about to leave. I went over and asked. This is a caravan returning to Jingzhou City. I asked if I wanted leather goods. I'm going to sell them. After talking, I sold them all in the space. Although the price is lower than that of Changji Leather Goods, it's safe. We won't see each other again, who will meddle in their own business to investigate, the rest will be sold to Changji Leather Goods,

After selling the fur goods, I asked where to buy dogs. The small dog food market occasionally sells something on the side of the road, and the bigger ones will go to the livestock market. It's not like there are pet markets and pet shops in modern times.

Li Jian went to the livestock market after buying other things, but unfortunately he didn't see any dog ​​sellers there, so he was about to go and saw a sheep seller leading three sheep, one of which was still milking. I was selling it, and I remembered that the nutrition of goat milk is also very good. I asked that the two lambs that were born were sold, so I bought the one that was being milked. The man said that it would be cheaper to buy them together. I just bought two adult ones together, and I plan to go back and save them for slaughter and eat meat. It is much more affordable than buying slaughtered mutton. It is very nourishing to eat whole lamb soup in winter. Now that it is cold, I can pack it up and freeze it. He ate slowly with Wu You, led the three sheep to settle the money, and wanted to know where there is a dog seller?When the sheep seller heard about it, he came back to business again.

It turns out that there are two and a half big dogs in his family that have not been given away. It turns out that the hunting dogs that his old man usually raised when he went hunting in the mountains, but later he stopped going to the mountains when he was too old, and the hunting dogs he raised became guard dogs, but the dogs were of good breed. Last time I lost the dog, I couldn’t keep it by myself. Let’s give it away. Every family in the village there keeps it. These two dogs were not given away when they were young, and they don’t want to hurt them anymore. There are more and more, and Li Jian is trying to deal with it when he hits the door. Dogs here are basically picked up by someone in the same village who gave birth to a puppy. They usually take care of the house, but no one specially raises this one. They are for sale, so they are not often seen in the livestock market. Li Jian turned to pick up the two dogs on the way back. He couldn't tell what was good or bad. Not full, but very energetic.Just took it home.

Seeing that he was about to go to the village, he took out a lot of rice and white noodles from the space prepared in advance, as well as eggs and a lot of old hens, and kept Wu You for a few days, but it was very healthy. There are also small dishes such as pickled cucumbers in my own space, which taste very good. For a change of taste, I took out a lot of garlic. When I go back, I will find a household item, add water and put it in the house. It is also a side dish when it grows up. Look at the green, put things away and go back.

When I got home and didn’t have time to rest, I was busy again. I killed a sheep and frozen it, then stewed it with whole lamb soup, and cleaned all the internal organs. The remaining two sheep bought enough fodder for the whole winter, put the sheep in the barn, and reinforced the barn to prevent the sheep from freezing, and cleaned out a room out of the wing to temporarily use it as a kennel It was dark during this busy day.

Wu You looked at the two dogs and couldn't care about anything. She was busy preparing to feed the dogs. Looking at the dogs, she was very clever. Hey, train well, you will be a good hunting dog when you grow up."

"I don't understand either. I bought it when I looked at it with a little energy. I thought it would be a big deal if I couldn't be a hunting dog or a housekeeper. If you think it's good, you can train it yourself. I don't understand and can't help you. "

"Don't worry, I've seen how other people train dogs, and I don't need your help."

In the evening, I have to explain again, eat well, remember to drink goat milk every day, add tea or almonds to cook it, etc., I am worried about it, but I have no time to take care of it, so I have to go back to the barracks I'm planning to take some time to invite old military doctor Liu to see how the recovery is going?What else needs to be done to rest assured.
