Chapter 16
After returning the wooden barrels and buying the ingredients from Wucheng, Mrs. Lu began to boil the beef bones under the guidance of her daughter.

Beef bones need to be boiled slowly and carefully for one or two hours, so that the soup will be fragrant and nutritious.

There are too many beef bones, in order to prevent spoilage, it must be boiled all at once.

Lu's directly used two pots, divided the beef bones into two parts, boiled them separately, and put all the beef bones into the pot at once.

When it was getting dark and the firewood cut by Wen Maoyi and his son on the mountain was almost used up, a strong fragrance gradually came out from the two pots.

Although there was a fragrance before, the smell was not strong enough, nor tasteful enough, and it was not very attractive.

The scent this time is obviously different, it's mouth watering!

Lu Shi, who had been burning the fire, swallowed unconsciously after smelling the fragrance.

Wan Ning stood by the pot, inhaled the fragrance in the air vigorously, and jumped up happily: "It smells so good!"

It is thanks to her guidance that I can cook so deliciously!

Wan Ning was overjoyed.

The fragrance emanates from the pot, fills the entire kitchen, and then floats out of the kitchen, into the yard, and then into the yards of the neighbors.

It caused the neighbors to keep sniffing and smelling the fragrance, and made the gluttons in their stomachs tumbling, really envious and jealous.

Adults can still restrain themselves, but children can't, they keep clamoring for meat!
Wen Yuze, who was lying on the bed pretending to be dead because he was too tired from chopping firewood, jumped up from the bed immediately after smelling the fragrance, and went straight to the kitchen!

While running, he shouted: "Mother, mother, the beef bone is ready? It smells so good! Can we eat?"

Boiled beef bones like this are indeed edible. It is a good choice to drink soup directly, or cook noodles, or use it to stew vegetables.

Wen Maoyi was also attracted by the fragrance.

Originally, he carelessly paid attention to appetite, and always thought that as long as he could eat enough, he would be fine, but smelling this fragrance, he felt that this thought could be changed.

"Mom, let's have a bowl of soup first, and cook with it later!"

"Okay." Mrs. Lu was also greedy, so she followed her daughter's words and agreed.

"I'll get the bowl!" Wen Yuze was very positive.

Wan Ning stood on the side, watching her brother busy with her, her mother serving bowls of bone soup, and her father bringing the bone soup to the table and putting it in front of everyone.

Wan Ning walked to the table, lay down in front of the bowl, and carefully blew on the bone broth.

The bone broth is too hot and needs to be cooled before drinking.

"Be careful, it's hot, don't worry."

"Two big pots of bone broth are enough for you to eat for a while, so don't burn yourself. If your tongue is burned, you won't be able to taste the aroma."

Wen Yuze, who was running around in a hurry, immediately calmed down when he heard this.

That's right, there are still two big pots at home, and there will be more after drinking, why is he in such a hurry?
Look at my sister again, she is blowing soup calmly!

That looks very ladylike!

Can't be compared to my sister.

Wen Yuze immediately sat up straight, imitating his younger sister and blowing the bone soup.

The two adults also carefully blew on the soup in the bowl.

After blowing for a while, I felt that the bone broth was ready to eat, so I took a sip immediately!
The bone broth immediately conquered their taste buds!

"It's so delicious!" It was so delicious that they couldn't find words to describe it - Wen Maoyi, Lu Shi and Wen Yuze thought at the same time.

But no one spoke up.

If you have time to speak out, if you have time to speak, why not drink more soup!

When the three of them drank, their whole bodies were immersed in the fragrance, only Wan Ning was calmer, and heard the cry of a child from the next door!

Coupled with the fact that the child was crying and shouting "I want to eat meat", it is not difficult for Wan Ning to guess that it is this bone soup that caused these things!
This is truly worthy of the name and made the children next door cry!

After finishing a bowl of bone broth, Wen Yuze wants to drink a second bowl!

"Don't drink it, I'll let my mother cook some gnocchi with this soup later, otherwise how can I fill my stomach with just soup!" Wan Ning hurriedly stopped her!
Wen Yuze just wanted to say "I am willing", but when he thought of his younger sister's ladylike appearance just now, he subconsciously didn't want to be compared with her younger sister, and said angrily: "If you don't drink, don't drink!"

"But I want to eat three bowls of gnocchi later!"

Wan Ning saw that her brother listened to the persuasion, so she turned to her parents and said, "Father and mother, I heard that the neighbor's children were crying because of the smell of our bone broth, and today they borrowed firewood for us to cook lunch, how about we Just pay with bone broth."

Wan Ning didn't say anything, they hadn't noticed yet, now they pricked up their ears and listened carefully, not only heard the cries of the children, but also heard the voices of the neighbors scolding the children.

If it was before, they would not have believed that the child could be so hungry that he cried, but after several months of trekking in exile, they believed it.

Because when they were in exile, when there was no oil and water in their stomachs, they could swallow their saliva twice when they saw the birds in the sky, not to mention the delicious bone broth now.

They felt the same way, so they really wanted to satisfy these children, so they agreed to Wan Ning's suggestion.

As for returning firewood, it's really a trivial matter.

Mrs. Lu took out a soup bowl from the closet, filled it full, and took it to the door of the yard, and walked to the neighbor's house on the right.

Wan Ning and Wen Yuze followed behind.

Wucheng is a vast land with few people, and the yards are all big, and there is a small road between each household. It sounds like they are neighbors, but there is a distance of nearly ten meters between the two households.

When she came to the neighbor's door, Wan Ning trotted forward, "I'll knock on the door."

While patting the door with his hands, he shouted: "Aunt Bai, open the door quickly, we are here to deliver bone soup!"

The family whose door was knocked was named Bai.

The head of the household, Bai Jinye, is a small soldier. He trains in the barracks during the day and goes home to rest at night. This is also the living conditions of most military households.

Bai Jinye has a son and a daughter, daughter Bai Ling, who is eight years old this year, and son Bai Guo, who is only four years old this year.

It was the four-year-old Bai Guo who was beaten and cried, howling!

Military households have Xiangyin every month, so their family lives pretty well, and every ten days and a half a month, they can eat meat once.

How can you make your son so greedy?
Bai Jinye is so angry, this brat is rolling on the ground just to eat something!

Who did you learn this sissy attitude from?

Today, if you are able to fight for a stutter, will you be able to sell your conscience and Wucheng tomorrow for a stutter?
You must know that there are a lot of cows and horses in the hands of the Tartars!
My son loves meat so much, he will definitely not be able to resist the temptation!

The more Bai Jinye thought about it, the more angry he became, he picked up his son and beat him!

Bai Ling originally wanted to say that she wanted to eat meat, but when she saw her father beating her younger brother with a straight face, she was too frightened to dare.

Aunt Bai shook her head and watched her husband beat her son and continued to cook, she couldn't help sighing in her heart, today's meal is destined to be unhealthy!

No, if the food cooked by the new neighbors in the future is so delicious, they will come here every day.
Aunt Bai couldn't imagine that scene!

It must be chicken and dog jumping!
sigh!Why don't you have such skills?

I don't know if this new neighbor is easy to get along with. If I ask for advice on cooking skills, will I be kicked out?

While thinking this way, Aunt Bai heard a knock on the door and Wan Ning's words that she would send bone soup to their house.

bone broth?

What bone broth?
