Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 476 Strange Fragrant Hot Mixed Fish

Seeing Cheng Xinxin's small figure running out in a hurry, Cheng He shook his head, "The bigger you are, the more you love to play. What should I do?"

"What should I do? It's not good to be locked up at home every day." Bai Qian replied.

While cutting the fish and scraping its scales, Cheng He asked her, "You were like this when you were young?"

I don't know why Zai Jiujiu came back suddenly, squawking and standing next to Cheng He, looking eagerly at the fish in his hand.

Cheng He didn't understand either. Could it be that the wild goose's eyesight is so good?Anyway, when eating fish at home, this guy is almost always waiting by the side, wanting to eat fish intestines.

It was the same today. Cheng He threw the fish intestines on the ground, and Jiujiu immediately stretched out his mouth to eat it. After swallowing it, he walked around the yard a few times to digest it, and then flew away with a flap of his wings.

Now, even the frequent tourists know that his family has a wild goose with a very good appearance.

According to Cheng He's instructions, Bai Qian was washing a few preserved eggs at this time, and replied, "When I was this old? Let me think about it..."

Bai Qiming looked at her, smiled and said, "How do you remember when you were this old?"

Bai Qian immediately said: "Yes, I think I should ask my dad about this kind of thing. Dad, what was it like when I was her age?"

The wrinkles on Bai Qiming's face immediately relaxed, and he carefully recalled her appearance when she was a child.

At that time, the business of the Bai family was not as big as it is now. It was just a small company. The family ran a factory, and all the people who could work in the Bai family went to work in the factory.

At that time, Bai Qiming himself had no skills, so he arranged to do warehouse management and take care of some messy things, but this job had a lot of rest time, and he had time to go home and spend time with his family.

He began to think, what was Bai Qian like when she was a child?At that time, Bai Xingjun hadn't been born yet, she could be regarded as a dominator in the family, and she was given everything in the house.

Thinking of her appearance when she was a child, Bai Qiming couldn't help but smile.

Time flies so fast, in a flash, her children are so big.

While washing the preserved eggs, Bai Qian waited for her father's answer.Who knew that he thought for a long time alone, and then laughed there?

She immediately asked: "Dad, what do you remember? I was very naughty when I was young? Ordinarily I shouldn't? I should be a quiet and cute type."

Cheng He was amused by her, and said, "Come on, I've never seen a person who put gold on his face like this."

Bai Qiming also said: "You were not considered quiet when you were young, but it's true that you are cute, and you can act like a baby."

Bai Qian pointed to her nose: "Me? I can act like a baby?" She looked very disbelieving.

Then she asked Cheng He: "Can I act like a baby? Will I? Am I like that?"

Cheng He remembered the time when she pestered him to learn how to cook, and when she wrote "I love you" on the note and shook his arm to let him read it, like that...

He shook his head again and again: "Yes, why are you acting like a baby? Then why is it you. "

The desire to survive drives him to lie.

Bai Qian hummed, and said, "Exactly!"

Bai Qiming looked at her present appearance, vaguely similar to when she was a child, couldn't help smiling, and shook his head.

When she was a child, she was also very close to herself. She would act like a baby, was cute, and not quiet. I don't know when she started to have her own small world, and she was not so close to her father.

When she grew up, she started to go to school, and gradually, she came back less time, and later, because of the marriage arrangement of the Bai family, she never came back.When I came back a few years later, I was sick.

No one thought that they would still have such a moment of laughing in the courtyard.

Life is really an unpredictable chess game.

To be honest, it has been a long time since they laughed so naturally and chatted in the sunny courtyard.

Before Bai Qian was ill, it was difficult to have such a real smile at home.

After a burst of laughter, some estrangement between father and daughter seemed to be opened.

Bai Qian looked at her father's white hair between her temples, and suddenly felt sad, and said, "Dad, you can play with us for a while longer. Anyway, you'll be fine after you go back."

The younger brother lives in school, and he plays everywhere during the holidays, and he doesn't go back once a month or two. In fact, he is also very lonely.

Bai Xingcong, who had been watching them chatting, followed suit and said, "Yes, Uncle, you can stay here for a while, treat it as a vacation, the environment here is very nice."

Bai Qizhi didn't know if there was any deep meaning in what he said. Could it be that letting Bai Qiming stay here for a while would help win over Cheng He?
So, he also echoed: "Yeah, it's really good here, Qiming, you are so lucky, I envy you, my daughter lives here, and my granddaughter is so old, so I can enjoy my family."

His daughter is about the same age as Bai Xingjun and is still in college.

Cheng He also said at this time: "Let's play here for a while, anyway, there is nothing important to go back."

While talking, he sorted out the fish.

Today he plans to try a new method to see if it tastes good.If it is delicious, I can make it often in the future.

This method is not from their area, but a Sichuan style method. I accidentally saw a video two days ago, and I think it should be pretty good.

After cleaning the fish, slit the fish body.The slits are not two or three slashes at random, but about one finger wide. The slits are deep enough to reach the bone, which is convenient and tasty.

After the cuts on both sides are cut, the shape of the whole fish has an indescribable feeling after rows of cuts. Anyway, patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder should look very comfortable.

Then put some cooking wine and salt on it, put some ginger and onion in the fish belly, and marinate for a while.

Bai Qian had never seen him do this before, and asked, "Is this new? I don't think I've seen it before."

"That's right, the preserved egg you washed just now is here." Cheng He replied while busy.

Put the preserved eggs in the fish?What is this?Bai Qian really didn't understand.Forget it, let's see what he does, anyway, she listens to his arrangements.

Cheng He arranged for her to help wash the mushrooms again.

It was summer vacation, and there was a burst of rain, and there was a lot of tree mushrooms in the mountains. When I picked them back, I couldn't eat them, and I even got a lot of dried ones.

Now, just in time for chicken soup.

When the mushrooms are dried by themselves, when they are soaked in water, they can smell a very obvious fragrance.

Soak the dried mushrooms, wash off the dust and sand when soaked, otherwise it will be uncomfortable to eat if there is sand.

I killed two chickens in the morning, one stewed with mushrooms, and the other can be made into a fragrant pot chicken.

For the mushroom stew, after Cheng He prepared all the seasonings, he directly put the blanched chicken nuggets and everything into the jar, added cold water, and put it on the stove to simmer.

Their stove here has a special place where you can put a small pot. It is not in the middle of the stove, so it is a small fire, and the chicken soup that is simmered on a small fire is actually the most fragrant, and it can absorb the essence and nutrition of the chicken. Bring to a simmer.

After preparing these, you can prepare to fish. After a while, the stove will be lit, and the simmering chicken will start at the same time.

After the fish that has been cut with a knife is marinated, the time is almost up, and you can start cooking.

He prepared a lot of condiments, such as chili, sauerkraut, pickled peppers, bay leaves, etc. This dish is a dish that eats a lot of condiments.

After everything is ready, heat up the pot, put some oil first, add the chopped sauerkraut, soaked chili, and sauce to fry until it tastes good, then add water, boil on low heat, cook all the flavors in the sauce, and then Put the fish that has been marinated for a while and cook.

At this time, it is also necessary to use a low heat. As the saying goes, "Thousands of tofu and ten thousand fishes are cooked". Whether the fish is delicious or not depends on the cooking temperature.

The fish is cut through the knife edge, so you have to be careful with this one. If it falls apart after a while, it will not look good.

While the fish was cooking, Cheng He went to prepare the sauce, cut the peeled preserved egg into pieces, added green peppers and green onions cut into small circles, and mixed it with red oil to make a cold dressing.Chicken essence, thirteen spices and so on should be added to the seasoning.

After the fish is cooked, put it on a plate carefully, don't want the cooked slag in the pot, just the fish, then pour the freshly prepared seasoning on the fish, the preserved eggs, chili rings, and chopped green onions are scattered on the fish.

On top, sprinkle some chopped peanuts.

The dried peanuts not long ago can already be fried and eaten.Fried peanuts only need a small handful, crushed a little and sprinkled on it to enhance the aroma.

To be honest, just looking at the appearance, it is still very good. There are some seasonings on top of the cooked fish. The color is very eye-catching and appetizing.

The fish is cooked in the seasoning soup. Although those seasonings are not required, the taste has already entered the fish. After a while, it is sour and spicy.

Bai Qian, who was helping at the side, looked at the plate of fish on tiptoe, took a deep breath of the aroma, and said, "It smells so good, I wish I could eat it right now. What kind of dish is this?"

Cheng He told her: "This dish is called Qixiang Hot Mixed Fish. It's hot, not cold."
