The black-bellied prince: the little princess of the chef

Chapter 347 New Year's Eve Dinner 3
Ye Pingrong and his wife bit their ears at the kitchen door for a while, and then they heard Ye Pingrong puffing his cheeks and calling them to have breakfast.They were afraid of being suspected by their children, so they responded immediately, washed their hands and went into the house to have breakfast.

After breakfast, I will continue to work on last night's work. All the dishes should be steamed or stewed.If it wasn't for Ye Qing's busy day yesterday, and Niang San's busy work until midnight, if he wanted to eat a hearty meal tonight, he would have to work hard.

In previous years, there were only two or three simple dishes. Occasionally, there would be a chicken or a bowl of pork for the children to beat their teeth.But this year, earth-shaking changes have taken place. Pig ears, pig trotters, pig liver, pig tongue, and pork are served in one plate after another, which makes people dazzled.Seeing so many delicious dishes, Ye Junbei salivated greedily and shouted Happy Chinese New Year.

Ye Pingrong saw that he was 20 years old, and he was still bluffing like this, and shook his head with a sullen face.If it was on a normal day, it is estimated that the cigarette rod at his waist had already hit the top of his head.But for those who are older than the Chinese New Year, even if they feel that he has no rules, they will not beat or swear at others.

"Junbei, I think Qingqing should call you younger brother."

Ye Junbei looked at his daughter-in-law with a puzzled expression on his face, stole a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, and said grumblingly, "Why?"

"Why?" Zhang Xiu rubbed her forehead with her greasy hands, and said in a speechless voice, "You are less stable than Qingqing. Do you think what I said is reasonable?"

"Hahaha.."

After Zhang Xiu finished speaking, Ye Qing and Xu Shi had already laughed.And Ye Pingrong, who was holding Rui'er by the kitchen door, immediately showed a tense face, shaking his shoulders with a smile.What his daughter-in-law said was so reasonable!
Seeing that the whole family was laughing at him, Ye Junbei blushed immediately, and then lowered his head to help his daughter-in-law arrange the dishes.But from time to time, he stuffed food into his mouth, as if the food he stole was more delicious than the food served on the table.

Seeing his funny look, Xu's thoughts immediately drifted back to their childhood.

When the Ye Qing brothers and sisters were young, after her family's money was taken away by the Ye family, although their lives were poor, they were not bad after all.During festivals, you can also eat some meat dishes.At that time, the brothers and sisters loved to hang around her who was chopping vegetables, stealing a bite of vegetables from time to time, and then ran away after chasing her, and came back after a while.

At that time, Ye Qing was only three or four years old, short in stature, and couldn't reach the bowls on the chopping board, so Ye Junbei, the older brother, picked up his younger sister and let her choose by herself.At that time, due to malnutrition, he was not tall, thin and yellow-skinned, and he was crumbling while holding the little man in his arms.But just for the sake of my sister choosing what she likes to eat, I just gritted my teeth and hugged her.At that time, after the brother and sister stole food to get their fill of addiction, they couldn't eat much when it was time to eat.

Thinking about it, Xu's eyes rolled down two drops of hot tears.

"Mom, what are you going to do with the salty goose that the third wife gave you? I cleaned it for you!"

Hearing Ye Qing's shout, Mrs. Xu realized that she had lost her composure today, quickly wiped away her tears, and said with a smile, "Put it in rice and steam it, let me do it!"

Ye Qing responded immediately, and then went to do other things.

The salted goose is different from the bacon made by Ye Qing, it must be steamed in a steamer.The oil from the goose penetrates into the rice, and the rice can also taste the aroma of the goose, and the goose meat will taste more delicious after infiltrating the aroma of the rice.

However, you must master the timing of steaming the goose. During the steaming process, you must seize the time to lift the cover and turn the goose over, so that the goose meat is fully heated and evenly heated, and the oil on the goose body can penetrate into the rice as much as possible.This kind of goose meat will be tender and not greasy, and the rice will also add flavor.

Ye Qing and Zhang Xiu smelled the smell of the steamed goose, they couldn't help but started stealing food from the cutting board.As Ye Junbei said, the food eaten secretly is more fragrant and delicious than the food served on the table.

Seeing his wife and younger sister stealing vegetables, Ye Junbei immediately clapped his hands and laughed loudly as if Columbus had discovered the New World, "Father and mother, take a quick look, Xiuniang and younger sister are also stealing vegetables!"

The two aunts and sisters-in-law blushed when they heard the words, but they were covered by Mrs. Xu, so they heard Mrs. Xu angrily say to Ye Junbei: "What's the matter with your daughter-in-law and sister's food? Are you dissatisfied?" She looked as if Ye Junbei dared to say that she was dissatisfied, and she dared to deal with this bastard Ye Junbei today.

Seeing that something was wrong, Ye Junbei quickly shook his head, "Mother, I was wrong."

Mrs. Xu nodded in satisfaction, and then said to her daughter-in-law and daughter, "Eat whatever you want, and ignore that bastard."

Ye Qing nodded happily, then ran to cut three sausages, stuffed them into the mouths of Xu Shi and Zhang Xiu, and finally stuffed them into his own mouth together.The three mothers looked at Ye Junbei and smiled, and Ye Junbei stomped his feet angrily, shouting that it was unfair.

During dinner, Ye Junbei looked at the dishes on the table in shock.The dishes for his family's New Year's Eve dinner are probably more abundant than those on the county lord's table. Braised dishes, hot dishes, roasted dishes, and steamed dishes are stacked two and a half layers in a row. The fish in the middle of the table is seen by the surrounding vegetable bowls. gone.

The members of the Ye family have never seen such a sumptuous meal, it took Ye Qing agitated for a long time before returning to his chopsticks.If they had seen Ye Qing's ability, their family would probably regard this meal as a dream.

After closing the doors and windows, drinking and eating, and cleaning the dishes, the family sits together to watch the new year.In Ye Qing's previous life, during Chinese New Year, he would go outside with his friends after the New Year's Eve dinner. The Spring Festival Gala felt like it didn't match his age. Young people always had fun.But being in ancient times, Ye Qing understood the sadness of running out of electricity, and the Spring Festival Gala is also an unattainable luxury for them!
The family sits in the main room peeling pine nuts, eating sunflower seeds, peeling peanuts, talking and laughing, which is considered lively.It's just that Mrs. Xu looked at Ye Qing a little absent-mindedly, and said: "Qingqing, it's still early, why don't you go to Qiusheng's house with your brother and sister-in-law to play with Chunya and the others?"

Ye Qing wanted to go out for a long time, to see the New Year's atmosphere in the village, but he was afraid of hurting his parents' heart, now that his mother opened her mouth, she was very happy in her heart, but on her face she said: "Forget it!" Come on, it's late at night."

"Let's go and find your brother Qiusheng. Let's go to the door to pay New Year's greetings, and ask uncles and aunts to give you sweets." When I was young, visiting to eat sweets was the happiest time.

Zhang Xiu got excited when she heard that, she grabbed Ye Junbei's arm and ran out, "Mom, it will be hard for you and dad to take care of Rui'er, hehe..." She stuck out her tongue childishly, and greeted Ye Qing Hurry up and leave.Otherwise, if her daughter starts crying, she won't be able to leave.

Ye Qing couldn't wait a long time ago, after filling his purse with melon seeds, peanuts and pine nuts, he joyfully went out with his brother and sister-in-law on his arm.
