In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Chapter 26 Seafood Dinner
After everyone goes out.

Li Duoyu found several comic books from the house to pass the time, including "Jade Blood Sword" and "Seven Swords Under the Tianshan Mountains".
In this era, many young people have a martial arts dream in their hearts, and they really want to go to the outside world.

I remember at that time, although he also loved reading Jin Yong's novels, he liked Liang Yusheng's "White-haired Witch" more.

When Li Duoyu was reading a comic book.

Li Haoran also squatted at the side, took a copy of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" and was watching. When he saw something exciting, he anxiously asked his uncle:
"Uncle, what about the next book?"

"If it is, it is here. If it is not, it should be taken away by Agui and the others."

"Ah, Uncle, have you seen what happened to the woman in the ancient tomb after Ouyang Feng's acupoints fixed her?"

Hearing this, the corners of Li Duoyu's mouth twitched, and he finally remembered why he hated Jin Yong.

As long as Li Duoyu is willing, he can even tell Li Haoran the whole story.

But the storytelling mouth is easy to dry.

Just think about it.

Li Duoyu lay on the rocking chair and continued to enjoy the leisurely afternoon.

In this era, the wind is very light, the clouds are very slow, and it is leisurely and leisurely, as if everything is not so anxious.

Unlike later generations.

Either on the way to get others involved, or on the way to be involved by others.

The housing prices are still so high, the competition is so fierce, and it costs a lot of money to raise a baby. Unlike today's students, there is almost no homework pressure. It's a holiday, it's a real holiday.

Li Duoyu remembered that when he came back from the island country, he went to the city with Zhou Xiaoying to help his son and daughter-in-law with their babies.

Not this cram school all day.

It's that cram school.

After completing the content of the class, you have to sign up for swimming and basketball lessons.

His daughter-in-law almost poured most of the life savings of two generations into the school district housing, saying that everything is for the good of the children.

But exhaustion was written on everyone's face.

All are exhausted to death.

To put it bluntly, the days are going back and forth. At the time of the planned economy, although material things were not as rich as they are now, at least everyone still has light in their eyes and faith in their hearts.

It was also during that time that Xiaoying realized that she was unwell, but it was too late. Li Duoyu accompanied her back to Dandan Island, where she spent the last time of her life.

Now that I'm back.

Li Duoyu just wants to slow down time and spend more time with his family.

Around two in the afternoon.

Zhou Xiaoying, who was taking a nap, woke up, wiped her face, sat by the window, and started preparing for next week's class.

Li Haoran was depressed for a while after reading the villain's book, but when he smelled the fragrance from the iron pot, his blood flowed back instantly.

He kept guarding the iron pot, secretly opened the lid from time to time, but he didn't dare to eat it secretly.

It simmered for almost three hours.

Li Duoyu checked the chicken soup, and the moment he opened the lid, the smell of meat came out, and the soup was golden and transparent, very delicious.

I don't know if it's an illusion.

Li Duoyu feels that the chickens of this era seem to be much more fragrant than those of later generations. Just the smell alone is very appetizing, and he can't wait to cook two bowls of rice.

Li Duoyu fished out the meat from the pot.

That chicken, he plans to make shredded chicken later, with some garlic and soy sauce, it will be very delicious.

Pork is used to make meat floss.

It can be given to Zhou Xiaoying for breakfast.

After the chicken soup was cooked, Li Duoyu boiled another pot of boiling water, and put the wooden frame used to separate the water into the iron pot.

He grabbed a swimming crab.

Hold down its back, hold the bamboo chopsticks, and aim at the mouth of the bubbling crab.

Sneak in while it's not paying attention.

The swimming crab resisted violently at first, and wanted to pinch him with its pliers, but Li Duoyu would not give it a chance, so he quickly thrust twice.

The swimming crab froze on the spot.

Immediately afterwards, the legs of the eight crabs softened, and they fell there limply.

If the crab is not killed, it is steamed.

In the end, you will only get a crab shell and a bunch of crab legs, and like this female crab, the "yellow" will flow away from the broken legs, which will greatly reduce the taste of the crab.

Crabs weighing more than two catties are all dead.

Li Duoyu arranges and piles the crabs on one end of the iron pot water separator. Although the best ingredients are used, they only need the simplest cooking method.

But there are tricks to eating seafood.

Just like shabu-shabu beef, the steaming time of each seafood is different. Port crab should be steamed for a longer time so that the "yellow" inside will be cooked.

Small seafood such as clams and pen holders are not suitable for steaming for too long. If steamed for too long, the moisture in the meat will be lost, and the taste will be very bad.

After steaming for more than ten minutes.

Li Duoyu put those pen holders and clams on the other side of the water-proof wooden stand, and filled the seven-seal iron pot to the brim.

When Li Duoyu finished these.

It was already dark outside, and there was a bang sound coming from the yard. From the sound, I knew it was Dad and A Niang who had returned.

But Li Duoyu never expected that Lao Li, who usually picked out several holes in his Jiefang shoes and was reluctant to change them, actually bought two bottles of Danfeng sorghum wine for the first time.

Although this thing is not as expensive as Moutai.

But it's not cheap either.

One bottle can be exchanged for one catty of pork, and the money earned from helping the owner knock oysters all afternoon, probably all went to these two bottles of wine.

After returning home, Lao Li took off his clothes in the courtyard because his whole body was covered in mud, and took a shower by the well in his big underpants.

Chen Huiying said with a smile on her face:
"Duoyu, your father is in a good mood today. He just bought two bottles of wine. You and him have a good drink tonight."

Li Duoyu didn't understand what mother meant.

Lao Li has a very hard mouth. He obviously wants to have a seafood dinner together, but he just can't open his mouth. It is estimated that buying wine is still a trick of Auntie.

"Okay, let's have a few bites with Dad that night."

Wait until meal time.

Li Duoyu felt that the kitchen was too small, so he simply moved out the Eight Immortals table for goodbye and placed it in the courtyard.

Afterwards, a large iron basin filled with fish balls, crabs, pen holders, and flower clams filled the Eight Immortals table.

Fish balls are a staple for tonight.

And these seafood are dishes.

As dusk fell, the lights in the courtyard were turned on, and many moths flew around the lights. Lao Li and Chen Huiying also took a bath and changed into clean clothes.

Little Fatty is the most active.

Already sitting at the Eight Immortals table.

Chen Huiying put a bottle of sorghum wine on the Eight Immortals table, and Zhou Xiaoying also came out of the bedroom and stood by the Eight Immortals table, waiting for Mom and Dad to sit down first.

Exactly at this time.

The second brother and the second sister-in-law also came back, and seeing an Eight Immortals table set up in the courtyard, which was full of seafood, they both thought it was Li Duoyu celebrating the report.

The second sister-in-law, Zhu Xiuhua, looked at the bowl of fish balls, but she was very unconvinced in her heart.

Obviously it was my uncle who helped, making it seem like I was very capable.

Zhu Xiuhua wanted to say a few words.

Unexpectedly, the little chubby guy at home grinned at her and said, "Mom, the fish balls my uncle made today are super delicious, do you want to eat them together?"

Seeing that Li Haoran was about to drool, Zhu Xiuhua took back all the words that came to his lips.

"No need, I've already eaten at my host's."

After finishing speaking, he returned to his home and closed the door.

Li Yaoguo, the second child who came back with Zhu Xiuhua, didn't know that the host didn't provide meals at all. He lowered his head and sighed.

Looks like I'll have to cook again tonight.

At this moment, Chen Huiying stopped him.

"Xiuhua is already full, if you still eat, why don't you come over for a drink together?"

"No need." Li Yaoguo hadn't finished speaking.

Old Li snorted coldly: "You have a naughty personality, just like a woman, you don't cook, so you come over to eat together."

Seeing that Dad who hadn't talked to him for a long time suddenly scolded him.

Li Yaoguo's eyes suddenly lit up, and he glanced at Li Duoyu who was smiling all over his face, then bit the bullet and sat down next to his son.
