Fat Niang makes a fortune in farming

Chapter 33 Small brook fish
Meng Kejun turned her body around a little bit, her back was facing Xilian, and she didn't want Xilian to see the embarrassed expression on her face, how could she admit that the bad expression was due to the obscene thoughts in her heart.

"What are you doing here?"

Considering her status as the eldest lady, it is not at all appropriate to be in the fields under the white flowers and vicious sun.

Xi Lian originally turned around and wanted to leave, she didn't want to stay with this woman who snatched her brother Qingfeng, but she found that this woman's complexion was not good at all.

Afraid that she would accidentally fall into the stream again, and if something happened to her, Brother Qingfeng would be the saddest, so he stood behind Meng Kejun holding an umbrella and did not leave.

"I'll pick some flowers and put them in the room!"

Originally, she didn't want to open her mouth to talk to this silly woman, but standing still like this is boring, it's better to chat with each other, and the time will pass faster.

"Why do you come here to fish?"

From a long distance, she saw this silly woman coming to the stream with a bamboo bag. This stream is narrow and shallow, and it can't carry any good fish at all.

"Come and eat!"

Meng Kejun, who was sitting on the rock, was surprised to find that many small fish were drilling into the bamboo pocket, and because the position of the bamboo pocket was lower than the upstream, those small fish who wanted to swim out tried their best to wag their tails. Can't swim out.

"You eat such a small fish?"

Xi Lian pointed at the small fish in the water in surprise. This small fish is no bigger than her fingernail. How can this be eaten? Can it be delicious?
"Oh! You don't know that! This little fish is the most suitable for snacks!"

Before the little fish came up, she already had a plan in mind, thinking about the spicy and delicious taste of the prepared one, Meng Kejun's saliva was about to flow out.

"Can this be used as a snack?"

This is the first time Xilian has heard of it. Can you believe what this silly woman said?But last time she heard her mother say that this silly woman is very good at cooking, and that the roasted pork lungs are the best her mother has ever eaten in her life. She has always been a pity, saying that in order to save face, she vomited half of it. up.

Seeing that it was still early and there were few small fish in his bag, Meng Kejun raised his head and glanced at Xilian standing behind him.

She patted the empty seat next to the big rock under her buttocks.

"Come on, let me tell you how it burns!"

Thinking that being idle is idle anyway, Xi Lian simply sat down beside Meng Kejun.

This silly woman is not good-looking at all, but Brother Qingfeng still likes her, then she must have some special qualities that I don't know about.

"Don't look at this small fish, there are so many ways to do it! You can eat it any way you want!"

He watched helplessly as the small fish in the stream swam into the bamboo pockets. The fish was too small, so there were more pockets, otherwise the whole family would have less to use to stuff their teeth.

"You can use this small fish to make fish soup. The soup will be white and thick. It is very delicious when used for noodle or soup. You can also dry these small fish and bring them Make spicy small dried fish, it is the most delicious appetizer on such a hot day.”

"You can also marinate the small fish, then fry it to make it crunchy, and finally stir-fry it with chili peppers. It would be great with wine and rice! It's just that it takes a lot of oil to fry it!"

Thinking of Mr. Meng Ke, I feel that it is a pity. Oil and gold are very expensive in this house. I am afraid that it will not be possible to cook like this, but it is the most delicious.

"Is it really so delicious?"

Xi Lian looked at Meng Kejun suspiciously. She has never been short of food since she was a child, and there is nothing to be greedy for her, but now she is a little greedy after hearing what Meng Kejun said. She wants to eat this fried dried fish she made. , Spicy dried fish.

"Of course it's delicious! I feel hungry just thinking about it!"

Meng Kejun twitched his mouth, and he didn't know what was going on in his mouth for the past two days. He felt that there was no taste in anything he ate, and he couldn't eat anything.

She fell asleep without eating last night, and she didn't feel hungry. She only drank a small bowl of porridge this morning. Now she feels that her mouth has no taste, and she wants to eat something appetizing.

"I'll pick up this fish later, you can try some after it's cooked, I guarantee you will find it delicious!"

When it comes to food, Meng Kejun is very confident. No matter how many people, as long as they have eaten the dishes she cooked, they will definitely give them a thumbs up.

"it is good……"

Xi Lian was about to applaud, but she regretted it as soon as she opened her mouth. She is not Meng Kejun, a silly woman who always says delicious food when she sees it.

Also, she was the one who snatched away her favorite brother Qingfeng, why are you still talking and laughing with her now?I should hate her, hate her.

"No! It's getting late! I'm going back!"

After saying this, Xi Lian turned around and left in a hurry, holding an umbrella.

After Xilian left, Mr. Meng Ke saw that it was almost time, so he dragged the bamboo bag in the water to the shore.

Looking into the bamboo pocket, although there is no big harvest, there are still a lot of small fish and shrimps, and there are even two fish as big as Meng Kejun's palm.

She dumped all the big fish and small shrimps in the bamboo bag into the sack she threw aside, then lowered the bamboo bag twice in the stream, and then went home with the bamboo bag.

Seeing Meng Kejun coming back with a bamboo bag, Dong Jingye, who had been weaving a dustpan under the eaves, immediately put down his work, stood up and walked towards the well.

Throwing the bucket down to the well, brought up a bucket of cool well water, washed the kerchief, and then handed it to Mr. Meng Ke.

"Hurry up and wipe your face, it's almost peeling from the sun, I'll tell you I'll go!"

Seeing Meng Kejun sweating profusely and his face flushed red, Dong Jingye's heart ached. Thinking of Meng Kejun's real identity and seeing her doing these heavy jobs, he felt even more sorry.

"It's okay! I'm not coming back now! I caught a lot of fish!"

Meng Kejun smiled and took the veil and scrubbed his face.

"Father! Bring me a big dustpan! The small one is salted and dried, and we will stir-fry it with chili for dinner at night!"

"Hey!"

Dong Jingye responded and quickly went into the kitchen to take out the big dustpan that had been used to dry the radish, and also took out the knife and salt. It is definitely necessary to use a knife to clean up the fish.

Pour the contents of the bamboo bag and the sack into the basin.

It caught not only small fish and shrimps, but also aquatic beetles. Meng Kejun picked up all the beetles and threw them to the chickens that had been running around in the yard.

Pick out all the small fish and shrimps that are only as big as fingernails, wash them, pickle them with salt, throw them in the dustpan and put them on the roof to dry.

The sun is so strong that it can be dried in one day.

The bigger fish were all cleaned up, washed and taken into the kitchen, and by the way, all the dishes that the ears of wheat sent to them yesterday were washed.
