Chapter 24

A large pot of water was added to the pot, and the wild pheasant was chopped into small pieces. There was no oil, so a little salt was added. As it boiled, Zhang Yuxiu added firewood in front of the stove.

Su Jinse found that the salt here is the kind of coarse salt, a large piece, this kind of salt has not been further processed, it is not refined, it is very rough.

The salt here is naturally incomparable with that of later generations.

However, even coarse salt is very precious to the farmers here. Every time they cook, they put less salt, and they are not willing to add more salt at all.

Even if she knew how to extract salt, she couldn't use it, because she was so poor that it was difficult for her to live, let alone buy salt.

After touching it for about half an hour, a strong smell of chicken soup wafted out of the pot.

The two brothers Zhang Zhiqiang and Zhang Zhiwen were all busy. They squatted in the kitchen, smelling the smell of chicken soup, drooling. Su Jinse was also a little greedy, mainly because she was hungry.

The porridge you drink in the morning digests quickly.

There are two iron pots at home, and Zhang Yuxiu cooks wheat and rice in the other iron pot.

Barley rice is made of wheat, and it is unhulled wheat, steamed directly, one grain at a time, the taste is not good, and it is not easy to digest.

Can wheat that has not even shed its husk be delicious?

Only poor people eat barley rice, because barley rice is cheap, and things like rice are precious things, poor people can't afford them at all, and they are not willing to buy them.

One bucket of rice can buy three buckets of wheat.

No wonder Li Hongxiang baked pancakes with flour last night to make Zhang Yuxiu's three brothers and sisters so excited, and also made dough soup in the morning, which is probably a rare good thing to eat in this family.

Su Jinse put the washed mushrooms into the pot, and boiled them for another half an hour, the aroma became stronger, with a layer of golden oil floating on it, and the aroma brought by the mushrooms, which made the index finger move.

"Sister, are you ready? Is it ready to eat?" Zhang Zhiwen was so hungry.

Zhang Yuxiu smiled and scolded him for being greedy, took a bowl and scooped up some soup and handed it to Zhang Zhiwen, "I'll satisfy your gluttony."

Zhang Zhiwen held back his drink, but brought it to Su Jinse, "Sister, try it."

"Thank you third brother, I'm not hungry right now, you can drink." Su Jinse smiled.

"Third brother, you really love Lingbao'er, don't worry, everyone has it." Zhang Yuxiu smiled, and brought out three more bowls, and each of them filled a little.

The four of them drank the soup with bowls in their hands. Because mushrooms were added in it, the chicken soup was very delicious. The mushrooms have the effect of enhancing the freshness, so delicious that they even swallowed their tongues.

Zhang Zhiwen smacked his mouth with a blissful intoxication on his face, "I've had chicken soup before, but I didn't find it so delicious!"

"Yes, yes, this chicken soup is really delicious!" Zhang Zhiqiang drank it up in two or three strokes, looked at the chicken in the pot, and swallowed hard.

"Wait a little longer, pheasant meat is more difficult to cook, we can eat later." Zhang Yuxiu laughed.

"Sister, let me make another dish. Otherwise, if you just eat chicken and chicken soup, you should finish it in two or three bites. Parents will have to wait until evening to come back. We have to save some for parents." Su Jinse said seriously, holding the bowl .

Zhang Yuxiu smiled when she heard the words, and looked at Su Jinse with gentle and gratified eyes, "My sister is right, we should cook something. We have to save more for parents."

"That's right, right, we can't just eat chicken, parents have to eat chicken too!" Zhang Zhiwen nodded in agreement.
