The Growth System Comes at the Age of Thirty

Chapter 107 Autumn Outing in Crocodile Park

After school in the evening, Chen Qiyun appeared again holding her little flower umbrella.

It's raining, not too heavy, but if you don't hold an umbrella, your hair will get wet, and you'll be scolded when you get home.

When I entered the courtyard of Chen Jingle's house, I immediately closed my umbrella, then turned on the water to rinse my feet and shoes, and then put down my schoolbag.

Chen Jingle was lying on the rocking chair, his eyes drooped, and he didn't want to move. It wasn't until Chen Qiyun tilted her head and stared at him that he reluctantly sat up with a yawn.

Dinner has been prepared and served on the table, including sweet and sour pork tenderloin and spicy and sour potato shreds.

Chen Jingle made a small attempt to make a breakthrough in taste as much as possible while using simple ingredients.

Therefore, these two dishes can be said to be the ultimate version.

Chen Qiyun has no objection to what to eat. She only knows how to eat as long as it is delicious. The specific dishes do not matter.

After eating at Chen Jingle's for a while, she finally understood that good-looking food does not necessarily mean good food. It is very difficult to want good-looking food and good food at the same time. As long as it is not ugly, delicious food is the most important thing!

For example, tonight's sweet and sour pork tenderloin and spicy and sour potato shreds, although they look ordinary, the taste is really amazing.

Potatoes at home are usually simply fried, and pork is basically cut into pieces or cooked in soup.

At Chen Jingle's side, you can always get different ways of eating.

"By the way, Teacher Li said that the weather forecast shows that it won't rain tomorrow, and even if it rains, it will only be light rain, so tomorrow we will go to the Crocodile Ecological Park with Class 1."

Chen Qiyun was almost full before she remembered what to say.

It's all Chen Jinngle's fault. The food he cooked is so delicious. As soon as school is over, he thinks about the food and forgets what the teacher said.

"oh."

Chen Jinngle picked up his rice calmly: "What time is it exactly?"

"The teacher said we'll start at 9 a.m., but it's best to get to the classroom early and then go downstairs together."

Speaking of this, Chen Qiyun looked at Chen Jinngle with pitiful eyes.

She said before that she wanted to eat the food Chen Jingle cooked for her in the morning, but Chen Jingle didn't agree at that time.

"knew."

He glanced at Little Douding: "Come and get it from me before you go out tomorrow, and prepare your own lunch box."

When Chen Qiyun heard this, she immediately beamed: "Thank you, Brother Le! By the way, what food are you going to prepare for me tomorrow?"

Chen Jingle thought for a while and said, "Let's serve the beef cold. There's no need to heat it up, and you won't be afraid of the oil condensing when it cools down."

Chen Qiyun nodded repeatedly: "This is good!"

In fact, she didn't even know what cold beef looked like. Anyway, it was made by Chen Jingle, so it wouldn't taste bad.

…

For Chen Jingle, cold beef is a dish that he has wanted to make for a long time but has never had the chance to make.

After the beef is cooked in sauce, slice it into slices, mix in all the seasonings, and you have cold beef.

When Chen Jingle used to work in the provincial capital, he often bought cold beef from the deli downstairs where he rented his apartment. He spent 20 yuan each time and cooked two bowls of rice when he got home.

If it’s a late-night snack, in addition to the soy sauce beef, you’ll also buy some salt-baked peanut milk-flavored melon seeds, and add a can of pineapple beer or Taishan craft beer.

Add beef slices to the noodles to make beef noodles; slice them and put them on the plate for dipping into sauce to make beef in sauce.

In short, the beef with good sauce is good news for lazy people. When you are hungry, just take it out from the refrigerator and cut it up to eat. It tastes as delicious as you like.

After dinner, Chen Jingle began to prepare the ingredients for the beef sauce.

"Should we start now?" Chen Qiyun was curious.

Chen Jingle explained: "Making beef sauce is very troublesome and takes a lot of time. After the beef sauce is cooked, it needs to be shaped. If it is not shaped, it will fall apart. You have to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for a few hours. If you make it now, I'll get up tomorrow morning and put it in the refrigerator for a little over two hours."

Chen Qiyun seemed to understand.

But it doesn't matter, she is only responsible for eating anyway.

As the saying goes, dress in satin and eat meat with tendons.

It is best to use beef tendon for sauced beef. If there is no beef tendon, ordinary beef will also work.

Chen Jingle first pricked the beef a few times with a bamboo skewer, and then soaked it in water to wash away the blood and dirt on the surface.

The soaking time should be as long as possible, one to two hours is fine. Add some cooking wine.

Then prepare various seasonings.

Naturally, sauce is needed for sauced beef, preferably dry yellow sauce. If not, the soybean sauce that Chen Jingle always has at home will also work.

Then there are the commonly used spices such as cinnamon, star anise, bay leaf, ginger, onion, garlic, dried chili pepper, white peony, white peony and other spices.

If you are a novice or not very confident in your cooking skills, you can add more spices. Otherwise, add less spices. The flavor of the meat must be retained to the greatest extent and cannot be masked by the flavor of spices.

If you have a pressure cooker, after blanching the beef, just pressurize it with the miso soup for five minutes, then turn off the heat and simmer it for 12 hours to make it more flavorful.

After it cools down, wrap it in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for a few hours to completely set it. This way the beef will not fall apart when cut.

The preliminary preparation work alone takes an hour or two, so although this dish is delicious, it is really troublesome to make.

Chen Qiyun went back after eating.

Chen Jingle was not in a hurry, so he would do it slowly, so as not to delay his extracurricular study in the evening.

He didn't use a pressure cooker, he just poured the blanched beef and the boiling miso soup together, simmered it for half an hour, then turned off the heat and poured it back into the sealed pot, letting the beef simmer.

Let’s talk about it tomorrow!

Now go take a shower and start today's evening extracurricular reading.

…

The next morning.

When Chen Jingle woke up, he went downstairs and went into the kitchen to take a look at last night's sauced beef.

good!

Even after a night, when you open the lid, the aroma is still fragrant. Looking at the color and flavor of the beef, they are both perfect.

Quickly take out the beef, wrap it in plastic wrap, compact it, and put it in the refrigerator to chill.

It started to drizzle again in the morning, so I stopped going out for a run and chose to exercise at home.

After exercising, simply cook some noodles for breakfast.

At this time, the beef was almost in shape. Chen Jingle took out a piece and cut a few slices. He felt it was ready, so he added a few slices to his own noodles first. The sauced beef slices are added with some spicy oil and mixed with noodles. It is steaming hot. Once you eat it, the coldness caused by the drizzle in the morning is immediately driven away.

Comfortable!

At 8 o'clock, Chen Qiyun came.

He took out a round lunch box from his schoolbag, which was divided into upper and lower layers.

Chen Jingle packed the rice and mixed beef slices for her, and put them in a ziplock bag to prevent them from spilling.

"Okay, go ahead and have fun."

"I know!"

Chen Qiyun carried her schoolbag and went out happily.

The classroom of Class 2, Grade 2 was very lively.

After all, there is no class today, just stay in the classroom and don't run around, and no one will care about what you say.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Of course, it’s not okay to be too loud. It will affect the students in the third grade of junior high school, and the teacher will come over and scold them.

"Chen Qiyun, have you brought anything to eat?" my deskmate suddenly asked.

Chen Qiyun was confused: "I brought it with me, what?"

The little classmate at the same table chuckled: "No, I just want to say that if you don't have anything to eat, I will bring some bread."

Chen Jingle was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "No, I have something to eat."

"It's okay. If you don't have enough to eat, I still have some here." The tablemate said kindly.

“…”

With the food cooked by Chen Jingle, Chen Qiyun didn't want to eat anything else at all.

She doesn't even eat snacks much now.

…

The tour arranged by Fatty Liu was picked up and dropped off directly at the school gate.

Under the leadership of the teachers, students from the two classes lined up and got on the bus one after another, just like raising the flag on Monday morning.

"Sister Yun, why are you still carrying a schoolbag?" asked a fat man.

Chen Qiyun maintains her image as a cool and cool girl in school: "The schoolbag is convenient for carrying things." It contains not only lunch boxes but also tissues. It looks quite big, but it is not heavy in fact.

"Then help me pack my mineral water and bread."

"No! You have a bag yourself!"

“…”

Li Beixing was a little nervous.

There were so many students, and if one of them got lost without paying attention, she would collapse.

So before leaving the classroom, I have been emphasizing discipline. You are not allowed to run around, and you have to report when you need to go to the toilet. It is best to go back together with several classmates.

After getting on the bus, count the number of people and confirm that there is no problem before announcing the departure.

The school is not far from the Crocodile Ecological Park, only 20 minutes away.

As the car drove into the park, the students immediately looked out the window curiously and started talking about it.

"Is this the Crocodile Ecological Park?"

"This gate is so impressive."

“The flowers on both sides are so beautiful, I want to take pictures here!”

Someone nearby couldn't help but interject: "I've been here a long time ago. It's just so-so. There's nothing interesting inside."

"Chen Zihan, shut up, I don't need you to spoil it!"

"That's right, show off and see what you can do. Don't we have eyes to see?"

“…”

Chen Zihan shut up in frustration and muttered in his heart: Don't be disappointed later.

He didn't really want to come, but everyone was coming, and if he didn't come, he would look a bit out of place.

And if you don’t come home and have to be supervised in doing your homework, you might as well come.

The car entered the park and stopped in the exclusive parking space.

The students got off the car one by one and couldn't help but look around.

Li Beixing and others quickly shouted: "Everyone, line up, don't run around, follow the tour guide, don't fall behind."

Fatty Liu arranged for a tour guide, and a group of people followed the tour guide and started sightseeing.

The entire crocodile ecological park is divided into crocodile breeding area, popular science museum, parent-child playground, board game entertainment area, water world, handicraft sales area, dining area and other areas.

The most interesting thing is naturally the crocodile breeding area.

The people who come here are basically residents of Jiangbei and nearby counties and cities. Most of them are seeing crocodiles for the first time in real life and are quite curious about this ferocious creature.

However, it is surrounded by high iron mesh guardrails, so as long as you don't jump in to die, you don't have to worry about safety issues.

There is a restaurant here where you can eat.

However, Li Beixing and other teachers felt that the hygiene of outside restaurants could not be guaranteed. If there were problems with eating, parents would complain, so they might as well let everyone prepare their own food.

This way, parents don’t have to wonder whether they overcharge students for food and line their own pockets.

From beginning to end, Li Beixing and the others never asked the students for a penny.

Lingnan is different from the north. If you dare to charge unreasonable fees here, parents will complain to the education department and they will lose their jobs.

In some northern provinces, teachers accept gifts from parents openly and even take the initiative to hint.

Li Beixing found this incredible.

I can only say that there is a big difference between the north and the south.
