Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 509

Cheng He went to send the child to school, and when he came back, he saw Bai Qian went to catch up on sleep again. She loves to sleep these days.

If he doesn't go to learn paragliding today, he doesn't have anything else to be busy with, so he still has some free time.

Seeing her sleeping peacefully, I felt a little relieved inexplicably, and wanted to pinch her to wake her up.It was really funny to see her angry and helpless.

However, before he reached out, he was reluctant to wake her up, and gently helped her brush off the hair on her face.

Well, she fell asleep, and Cheng He has nothing else to do now, so let's prepare lunch.The morning chickens are all killed, and now they are going to be plucked and marinated.

To make beggar's chicken, it takes a long time to marinate to taste. From now until noon, the time is probably enough.

In the morning, the chicken was killed and the blood was drained. Now boil some water, scald the chicken before plucking the hair, and then remove the intestines and viscera.

The internal organs are also kept. Chicken hearts, chicken kidneys, chicken intestines, and chicken gizzards can be fried with hot and sour chicken offal.The gallinacea is cut off and dried in the sun. If the child has a loss of appetite or indigestion, you can make it for her to eat.

Of course, Cheng Xinxin's physical fitness is already very strong now, so basically she doesn't need to use it.But it is very strange that once a person does something and forms a habit, it seems difficult to get rid of it.

When Cheng He was young, this would happen when the chicken was killed at home, and the chicken gills were kept, dried and put away.

When he was drying the chicken gizzard, he couldn't help but think of some things from his childhood.This small courtyard carries too many memories of him.

After the chicken is cut, it needs to be marinated first. Salt, cooking wine, pepper, fragrant leaves, light soy sauce, etc., are foamed on the chicken layer by layer, and a layer is applied, which is equivalent to kneading the whole chicken, and the chicken is softer. Seasoning is easier to taste.

After marinating, put it in the refrigerator, and then process the chicken intestines and so on.

The hot and sour chicken giblets are more appetizing, and it may satisfy Bai Qian's appetite, and eating them is still good for the body.

While he was doing this, Bai Qian got up, and when she saw him doing these, she sat on the side and watched.

Cheng He glanced at her, without moving his hands, and said, "I didn't wear an extra layer when I got up. Now that the weather is getting colder, don't catch a cold."

Bai Qian said: "I'm not cold. My body temperature is much higher than yours now. I can't resist not blowing the fan."

"Are you still blowing the fan? See if you can do it!" Cheng He spat.

Bai Qian asked, "Shall we have chicken for lunch? Is this for lunch?"

"Yes. I've marinated the chicken. I'll make you a different way to eat it at noon. I'm sure it will open your eyes." Cheng He said confidently.

"Really? What's it like?"

"Beggar Chicken."

"You still make beggar's chicken yourself?"

"correct."

Bai Qian swallowed her saliva, looking like she wanted to eat, then she gave him a contemptuous look, and said, "The child is at school at noon, and if he doesn't come back to eat, we parents will eat chicken quietly by ourselves? Are you a stepfather?"

When Cheng He heard it, that's right, Cheng Xinxin didn't come back for lunch.

He thought for a while and said, "Then let's bring her back for lunch?"

"That won't work. Why take her out if there is nothing to do? Let her think that she can come out to play if she doesn't want to go to school. What should I do?"

"Then what do you say?"

"Let's keep it, eat chicken at night, and eat anything else at noon." Bai Qian suggested.

Cheng He smiled and said, "Come on, let's get something else when she comes back tonight. If she doesn't come back to eat, we won't even eat chicken? You are pregnant, so you need to supplement your nutrition."

Bai Qian pouted and said, "I don't know what she eats at school! In my heart..."

"Well, how about I make some delicious food for her when she comes back in the afternoon?" Cheng He said.

While talking, the chicken intestines are ready and need to be washed.

This is not an easy job. The hot and sour chicken offal is delicious, but cleaning is especially important, otherwise there will be peculiar smell and affect the taste.

Wherever he went, Bai Qian followed him; when he went to the well, she followed him, looking for a chat if he had something to say.

Cheng He said: "There is water here, please slow down, don't slip your feet."

"Understood, the water is still far away from me, it won't be slippery, my husband!" Bai Qian said sweetly after being concerned.

"You said the yard is so big, why do you always follow me? What if I didn't see it and bumped into you?" Cheng He continued to chatter.

"Yeah, the world is so big, I'm still married to you, so if I don't follow you, who should I follow? I just want to follow you, don't try to drive me away." Bai Qian pouted and said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, follow, who can drive you away."

While washing the chicken intestines, while chatting leisurely, I feel that the time is easy to pass.

Bai Qian has been listening to Cheng He talking about desert afforestation for the past few days. At this moment, she remembered and asked, "I heard from you last time that your studio has cultivated a new plant that can withstand the drought in the desert. It is because evolution has secreted a kind of mucus to immobilize the sand. Let me ask you, the desert that is immobilized is still sand, and it is not soil. How did it become soil? Where does it get its nutrients? "

Cheng He gave her a look of "admiration", and said, "Hey, you will still help me with things?"

"What's the matter? You think I'm useless?"

"No, no, it's useful. I see you doze off every day. I don't have the nerve to worry about things at work."

"Then just tell me, I've been confused for several days." Bai Qian said while playing with Cheng He's clothes.

Cheng He said to her: "Desert greening is not a spell. Plant a kind of grass, and the desert will turn into soil? No one will believe it. It's just that after the desert is planted with this kind of grass, it can withstand It can withstand extreme drought, and can also fix the sand to prevent further desertification of the desert and achieve the purpose of greening; next, the plants will rot in the sand after death, and will also feed back some nutrients to the desert. Over time, the sand will not only be fixed, There are still nutrients, and it becomes sand. Do you understand?"

This passage is a bit long, but after living in the countryside for so long, Bai Qian has a little understanding of the difference between sand and land.

For example, watermelons should be planted in deserted areas, while taro should be planted in muddy areas, depending on the situation.

However, after the land on the edge of the desert became more and more desertified, the environment was extremely harsh, and the original plants could no longer survive there, and the desert without the shelter of plants gradually became more desertified.

Only by cultivating more drought-resistant and wind-sand-resistant plant seeds so that they can survive there can the desert environment be improved step by step.

Therefore, the new plants newly cultivated by the company can be said to be mainly used to alleviate and gradually reverse the degree of desertification, rather than to say that as long as this plant is planted, the desert will immediately become a fertile field.

After all, it is a difficult problem in the world, and it has to be done step by step.But it can be seen that this approach is effective.

Bai Qian figured this out, and asked again: "Then the desert has turned into sand, what's next?"

"Next, the wind and sand will be reduced. The sand will turn into sand and the environment will improve. Maybe other plants will gradually adapt to it," Cheng He said.

The adaptability of plants is amazing. Thuja is a very valuable carving material and an expensive ornamental plant, but they can grow in completely soilless rock crevices, live by absorbing nutrients in rainwater, and grow good.

Therefore, as long as the desert environment improves, the natural world will change and develop in a benign direction.

Desert greening is not so easy. Otherwise, why hasn't the whole world come up with a feasible solution for decades?
Cheng He said: "In this regard, don't worry. Those who study these are scientific talents. Of course, they have a certain scientific basis for what they say. Just wait and hear the good news."

While talking, the difficult-to-wash chicken intestines were finally washed.

It's not easy, I rubbed it several times with salt and starch, and now it's finally ok.When frying for a while, you need to add more seasonings and spices.

At about noon, the chicken was almost marinated. Cheng He took it out and wrapped a lot of things in the chicken belly, such as potatoes, mushrooms, onions, radishes, colored peppers, and the chicken belly was stuffed. fully.

This is a combination of meat and vegetables. Eating chicken alone is too much fat. You must eat some vegetarian dishes to neutralize it, which is good for the human body.

While the vegetarian dishes are roasted in the chicken belly for a while, they will also inhale the chicken oil, which is delicious to eat.

I wrapped two layers with lotus leaves, tied them with ropes, and mixed some mud to wrap the whole lotus leaves.

This bag turned into a hard and big lump of mud.

Bai Qian said with an exaggerated expression of admiration: "The man I chose is really good, he can cook anything."

Cheng He snorted.

Now, his hands are covered with mud, and he pastes and pastes on the mud bumps, and then takes a toothpick to poke some air holes in it, so that after the mud is dried for a while, the heat inside cannot come out, and it will explode directly.

He said with a frightened face: "You don't know, when I was young, I read the original work of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and saw Huang Rong make a beggar chicken, which attracted Hong Qigong to eat it, and taught me how to eat it. Guo Jing's martial arts, I was thinking, what does beggar chicken taste like? I haven't forgotten that feeling until now."

Bai Qian smiled and listened to him, as if she was listening to a story.

After Cheng He made the paste, he threw it directly into the oven, and the fire underneath was roasting.

He said: "There is another plot, which I also remember very well. It was when Yang Guo went to the top of Mount Hua and met Hong Qigong. As a result, after Hong Qigong caught a lot of centipedes with chickens, he cooked a pot of centipede soup for Yang Guo to eat. But Yang Guo was afraid to eat it at first, but he couldn’t stop eating it afterwards, and I was thinking, is the centipede cooked like that really so delicious?”

Seeing his expression, Bai Qian smiled and said, "So that's why you like learning how to cook?"

After about a while, he smelled the aroma of chicken and felt that it was almost done. Cheng He used tongs to turn over the mud lumps in the oven again, and then went to fry the hot and sour chicken offal.
