Chapter 76 Chef Ye

It's just that although she wants to go back to her natal home, but it's too hot at this time, and she's busy in summer, so she doesn't really want to go to the mountains, so let's talk about it when the time comes. After selling the peanuts and building a house, she can take over My mother's family came to live.

Sitting in the rocking chair was also boring, so Liu Man'er went to the kitchen to watch Ye Yuan cook. When he was on the mountain last time, he saw that he was very good at cooking firewood chicken and barbecue. I don't know how good his cooking is.

However, although Liu Man'er thought well, Ye Yuan is not very good at cooking. As soon as Liu Man'er entered the kitchen, she saw him cut a piece of meat into six large pieces, Liu Man'er saw it and asked quickly, "What are you doing?" What are you going to cook?"

"Just stir-fried pork." Ye Yuan said naturally, "I'll make you a fried pork with sour beans."

"Oh, then do you have to cut your meat thinner?" Liu Man'er looked at such a large piece of meat and said, "It will taste better if it is cut thinner. Come, let me teach you."

Liu Man'er went over and cut the meat into thin slices, Ye Yuan watched from the side, expressing that he knew it, and then took the knife from Liu Man'er's hand.

In fact, it's not that Ye Yuan doesn't know how to cut meat thinly, he just didn't think about cutting it like this, men are all careless, and they also like the feeling of eating meat in large pieces.

Besides, in this countryside, everyone cuts meat in large pieces that are four fingers wide and an inch thick. Without it, no one in this farm eats meat every day. They don't know how to touch it, they only eat it with sauerkraut, and they have to fry this piece of meat for several days.

Of course, Liu Man'er's family is not short of meat now, and they eat fresh meat every day, so in the past six months, all the children in the family have grown taller. If others don't talk about it, just talk about Ye Feng, who saw him when he first came here He still looks like a child, but looking at him now, he seems to have grown into a handsome young man, only a little bit taller than Liu Man'er, and he must be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Liu Man'er next year.

After Ye Yuan cut the meat, he went to the stove to light a fire, and stirred the pot with a spatula. At this moment, rice was cooking in the pot. Looking at him like this, he looks quite decent.

"Want to eat eggplant? Shall I make you a grilled eggplant?" Seeing Liu Man'er watching by his side, Ye Yuan asked.

"Grilled eggplant? Okay." Liu Man'er nodded happily, she also wanted to see how Ye Yuan cooked the roasted eggplant.

I saw that Ye Yuan washed an eggplant with water, checked that there were no insect holes, then put the eggplant into the fire, then found a few peppers, and put them into the fire together, and then, he used ashes to Bury the eggplant and pepper.

"Is that enough?" Liu Man'er blinked her eyes, expressing her curiosity, but she thought the taste should be good, the roast chicken was delicious last time.

"Well, wait a minute, when the rice is cooked, it should be almost done." Ye Yuan said while cooking other dishes.

Today, in addition to a stir-fried pork with sour beans and a grilled eggplant, there are loofah soup and scrambled eggs with bitter gourd. There are not many people in the family, so these four dishes are enough.

The firewood cooks the rice very quickly, after a while Ye Yuan fished out the rice, boiled the remaining rice soup to thicken it up, and then put it in a basin.

"Are you hungry? Would you like a bowl of porridge first?" Seeing Liu Man'er always watching by his side, Ye Yuan asked.

"No, I'll just watch how you cook first." Liu Man'er said with a smile.

"What's so interesting about this." The corners of Ye Yuan's mouth twitched slightly: "My cooking doesn't taste good, so you can just eat it."

"How come, what you cook must be delicious." Liu Man'er encouraged him, and then asked, "Did you work as a cook in the army before?"

Ye Yuan turned his head to look at Liu Man'er, and admitted, "When I first went to the army, I was doing odd jobs in the kitchen."

"It must be very hard work." Liu Man'er walked to the cutting board, looked at the bitter gourd Ye Yuan had cut, and said, "I saw that you cut vegetables and so on, and they are all pretty good, but a little rough, for example, this bitter gourd , you cut it so thick, it should be very bitter, right? I think you should cut it thinner and soak it in salt water?"

"Man'er, you don't have to beat around the bush like this, just say it if you think I'm not doing well." Ye Yuan walked over and picked up the knife.

"Actually, I'm not picky." Liu Man'er was exposed by Ye Yuan's small thoughts, and said: "I just thought I did it when my mother and the others came back, and my mother will definitely say it when the time comes."

"Okay, I'll cut it thinner." Ye Yuan picked up the knife again and continued cutting.

Liu Man'er went to wash the pot, heat up the oil, and then stir-fried the meat in it. As for the vegetables that Ye Yuan chopped, Liu Man'er asked him to chop them finer.

Ye Yuan has great strength and good knife skills. Hearing what Liu Man'er said, he re-cut all of them, but it didn't take much time. After Liu Man'er finished stir-frying the meat, he just re-cut the sauerkraut.

Put in chili and ginger and stir-fry Liu Man'er, add sauerkraut, and add a kind of soybean oil made by the farm, and it will immediately smell fragrant.

After Ye Yuan chopped the vegetables, he went to the stove to light the fire.

While lighting the fire, he turned out the peppers and eggplants he put in the stove.

Take a bowl, carefully tear off the outer skin of the pepper, and then put it into the bowl. The eggplant is also torn off the outer skin, and then find a small wooden mallet to mash the eggplant pepper. Add salt and soybean oil, Liu Man'er burns hot oil and pours it on, add a little chopped green onion and stir evenly, it looks very good.

"Would you like to taste it?" Ye Yuan picked up a bit and put it on Liu Man'er's mouth, Liu Man'er licked it in, and immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "It's so delicious, I can eat more later A bowl of rice."

"That's right, this grilled eggplant was my favorite when I was young." Ye Yuan said casually.

"Then why hasn't my mother cooked this dish for us recently?" Liu Man'er asked while frying bitter gourd.

"I don't know." Ye Yuan also shook his head, "Maybe it's because she thought that we would not like to eat this dish every day before."

"What kind of logic is this?" Liu Man'er thought for a while as she spoke, but she roughly understood what Ye Yuan meant.

This baked eggplant is not difficult to make, and it doesn’t take time. When cooking, you can make it together, and you don’t even need to wash the pot. It is estimated that in this farm, every household eats like this when they are busy with farming. Besides, if If you don't add more oil to this eggplant, it will be a little greasy, and if you eat too much, it will make you sick.

In Fang's eyes, this is something for the lower Liba people. Now that life is better, she wants her children to eat better, so she doesn't make this grilled eggplant.

"Oh, my mother really thinks about us." Liu Man'er took out the last dish, and then took the dishes out together, and asked while setting the table, "Why haven't they come back, mother?"

"It should be soon." Ye Yuan looked at the sky, but it was getting late.

"It's not that they haven't sold my peanuts, so they have been waiting there all the time?" Liu Man'er was quite worried.

"I don't know." Ye Yuan shook his head, and went to serve the remaining bowl of food.

Liu Man'er was waiting at the door, and after a while, she heard their voices, "Oh, mother, they are back, Ye Yuan is going to bring out the rice and porridge." As she spoke, she also started to set the bowls and chopsticks.

As soon as Fang entered the door, Liu Man'er looked over. Fang put the pan in the kitchen to wash her hands, and Liu Man'er looked at the pan, which was already empty.

"Eat." After they washed their hands, Liu Man'er greeted Fang and the others for dinner. At the dinner table, she inevitably mentioned the sales of the peanuts, "Mother, are we selling these peanuts well?"

"It's okay, they're all sold out." Having said that, Fang's face showed a smile, "I never thought that someone would buy peanuts that are as expensive as meat."

Liu Man'er was about to laugh, but Ye He added from the side: "But my mother always sells for four yuan a catty, not five."

"Oh, just four pennies, we still have to make money." Liu Man'er felt that this was nothing, and it was not impossible to sell a penny less.

"It's just that my mother didn't sell it. In the end, they bought five catties, and there were eight catties left, so my mother gave them all." Speaking of this, Ye Hepo complained to Liu Man'er.

Because every time I go with this sister-in-law, I always feel very happy, and the business is also very good. This time I went to sell things with Fang's, and Ye He was very anxious to the side. My old Gao, forget it, I have to grab a handful and give it to others every time, for fear that they will suffer.

Originally, before I went, it was said that it was five yuan a catty, but later Fang’s sold it for four yuan a catty, and they bought two or three catties, and asked her to give some, she nodded in agreement, watching those people grabbing her peanuts, Her heart is about to break.

Also, Liu Man'er originally planned to ask Ye Tianchen to grab something for others to try, but Fang always let others grab and try it by himself, and Ye He was anxious to death.

This peanut, but she worked so hard to get it back.

Not only that, after the peanuts in the field were brought back, Ye He carried a small basket and a small rake, and together with Liu Fusheng and Ye Feng, carefully checked the two pieces of land in their own house, and found that there were leaks. The peanuts in the ground were also pulled out by her with a small rake, but they were given away by someone like Fang, and she was so anxious that she died.

"People buy three catties for ten cents, and my mother also sells them. Now I think our peanuts not only didn't make money, but they must also lose money." Ye He added on the side.

"No, no." Fang was also a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "I have a sense of proportion. Anyway, our usual peanuts are only two cents a catty, so we still have to make a lot of money."

"Mother, how much did you sell in total?" Liu Man'er asked, this time she gave Fang [-] catties to sell, and planned to try the market.

"There are fifty or sixty characters." Fang answered while eating.

Liu Man'er didn't speak, after Fang finished eating, she cleared the table, took off the small cloth bag from her belt, poured the money on the table, and showed Liu Man'er the count.

No more, no less, just a total of [-] Wen, Liu Man'er inexplicably wanted to cry.

"Not bad, not bad, mother, it's your first time to sell things, it's good if you can keep your capital." Liu Man'er comforted Fang with a smile, but she was thinking quickly in her heart whether she had lost money this time. .

These spices cost a lot of money, as well as salt, sugar, and meat. These are not cheap things. Well, it’s okay, okay. No loss.
