Chapter 181 Salty and Sweet Perpetual Motion Machine

Today is Nan Yi's first day at kindergarten.

On such a grand day, Nanzhi naturally had to prepare a breakfast that was appropriate for the occasion.

She plans to cook porridge.

But it is not ordinary porridge, but boat porridge.

There are many styles of cooking boat porridge on the market, and Nanzhi’s is relatively more complicated.

The porridge base was cooked the day before.

Put the japonica rice in a thick clay pot and bring it to a boil. Add chopped fish bones, pork bones, scallops, etc., wrap them in gauze and throw them into the pot. Simmer on low heat for a full half day until the rice grains are soft and rotten.

Remove the gauze and add fine salt. Only then is the porridge base considered ready.

The next day, Nanzhi got up early in the morning and put fresh fish slices, roast duck cubes, squid cubes and other ingredients at the bottom of the bowl.

The thick earthenware jar has excellent heat preservation properties, and the porridge base is still boiling hot.

Pour into a bowl and blanch the fish fillets with the temperature.

Finally, sprinkle with fried peanuts, fried dough sticks, green onions, ginger, and pepper for seasoning, etc.

The whole bowl of porridge, except for the roast duck which was bought from outside because there was no oven at home, all other side dishes including the fried dough sticks were fried by Nanzhi herself.

Nanzhi fried more dough sticks on purpose so that they can be eaten with porridge.

The fried dough sticks she made were golden, plump and crispy. They did not become soft even in the hot steam of the boat porridge and looked very delicious.

However, remembering that Yi Yi loved sweet food, Nanzhi suddenly decided to make an extra sugar cake.

The method is very simple, which is to fry it with hot dough and coat it with lard and sugar inside. It is small, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Nanzhi picked up one and tasted it.

She was experienced, so she only took a small bite and waited for the steam to roll around for a while and then became less hot before she continued to eat carefully.

The lard and sugar had already melted into a paste and flowed out, almost scalding the southern branch.

But the taste is still excellent, the crispy outer shell and the soft inner part are just the perfect ratio, the filling is sweet but not greasy, and because it is very small, people want to eat a second one after eating one.

Even someone like Nanzhi, who doesn't like sweet food very much, ate three cakes in a row before stopping.

"Gudong."

It was the sound of swallowing saliva.

Wait, she didn't swallow her saliva...

"all!"

Nanzhi turned around and saw Nanyi squatting outside the kitchen door like a little puppy, looking at her eagerly.

He was probably half asleep when he was attracted by the smell of porridge and woke up in a daze.

She wasn't even wearing any clothes, just a small vest and shorts for sleeping.

His hair was messy as if it had been chewed by a dog.

He looked so pitiful and funny that even Nanzhi laughed.

"Go change your clothes and come have breakfast."

She waved her hand, signaling Nan Yi to hurry up.

Nan Yi, however, did not move.

His eyes were fixed on the cake behind Nanzhi.

Sure enough, sweets are very attractive to children!
But Nanzhi did not give in:
"You have to wash up first."

Nan Yi knew that his mother had always been strict in this regard, and he couldn't get away with it by just acting coquettishly.

Helpless, I could only stand up reluctantly, leave the kitchen and go to the bathroom.

After a while, Nanzhi heard the sound of him washing hurriedly.

It's like pressing the multiplier key.

In the blink of an eye, he was completely refreshed and was sitting obediently at the table waiting for his mother to feed him.

Nanzhi brought the boat porridge first.

Nan Yi, who was not very interested at first, sniffed and his eyes were attracted by the boat porridge in front of him.

This was the first time he had seen porridge with such rich ingredients, and he was a little surprised:

"What kind of porridge is this?"

“Boat porridge.”

Nanzhi's answer confused Nanyi. His tongue was tied:
"Hall...cub?"

"It's called tingzai, which means a small boat in Cantonese. Dingzai porridge is the porridge sold on a small boat."

Nanzhi said as she brought the cake over.

Nan Yi's eyes were immediately attracted by the cake, and he didn't even listen carefully to Nan Zhi's explanation.

Nanzhi found it funny and stuffed chopsticks into his hand, reminding him:

"Eat slowly, don't burn yourself."

The southern Italian nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

But thinking and doing are two different things.

No matter how careful Nan Yi was, the tip of his tongue was still burned by the scalding hot sugar filling.

"Whoop whoosh!"

Nan Yi's little face was twisted into a knot!
Nanzhi took the sugar cake away directly:

"Let it cool down before eating. Drink the porridge first."

Nan Yi puffed up her face somewhat unhappily.

But this expression quickly disappeared after he tasted the boat porridge...

The bowl that Nanzhi used was bigger than Nanyi's face, and he almost buried his head in it!
The porridge was cooked soft, the fish slices were just the right amount of tenderness, the squid was chewy and delicious, and the fried dough sticks were crispy yet soft...

This bowl of porridge is full of layered flavors, which is completely different from ordinary simple white porridge!
Nanzhi took a tissue and wiped off the rice grains stuck on the tip of Nanyi's nose:
"Is it tasty?"

Nan Yi didn't even have time to say anything, he just kept nodding.

After the cake had cooled down a bit, Nanzhi picked up a piece for Nanyi.

Take a sip of boat porridge and a bite of sugar cake.

Salty and sweet perpetual motion machine, delicious as hell!
It seems that the effect of this breakfast is really good.

Even all the way to the kindergarten, Nan Yi was happy and jumping around.

It was not until he stood at the entrance of the kindergarten that his smile faded a little and he slowly began to feel fear.

He was at the entrance of the kindergarten, reluctant to take that step, and had no choice but to look to his mother for help...

"Wow!"

A thunderous howl broke out nearby!

Nanzhi and Nanyi turned their heads in unison and saw a chubby little boy crying loudly.

There were four adults surrounding him, probably the elders of his family, and they all came forward to persuade the little ancestor to stop crying.

The little boy continued to babble as if he hadn't heard anything:

"I don't want to go to school! I don't want to go to school! Waaaaaah!"

The movement attracted a lot of people's attention.

The little boy who was throwing a tantrum didn't feel ashamed at all.

Anyway, the only ones who are embarrassed are his elders.

Nan Yi: ...

"Okay mom, I will go to school obediently!"

Nan Yi quickly suppressed his grievance and decided not to be like that little fat boy, being watched by people like a monkey in the zoo!
Too shameful!

Nanzhi also vaguely guessed the truth behind Nanyi's change of attitude, and even felt a little grateful to the crying little fat warrior...

"Well, put on your schoolbag and wait for your mother to pick you up after school."

Nanzhi was afraid that Nanyi would go back on his word, so she quickly waved goodbye to him.

Nan Yi tugged at the strap of his schoolbag and happened to pass by the crying little fat boy.

A faint fragrance wafted out of his schoolbag and was just smelled by the fat boy.

The little fat boy suddenly stopped crying, turned over and got up, and chased after Nan Yi:
"Wait for me!"

Nan Yi was puzzled by the suspension.

Nanzhi, who had not left yet, hurried over.

As a result, the fat boy changed from crying to laughing in a second, and it was the kind of flattering, servile and fawning laugh.
