The Little Dumb Wife of the Mountain People

Chapter 163 Cooking Saltwater Shrimp and Drool Chicken
Because of Wen Bao's solution, Wen Chengquan solved the important matter on his mind, and he went out to the county government early the next morning.

After Wen Bao got up, he learned that he had sent Song Dalang out to buy two chickens after he left early in the morning. She would cook a few dishes at home today to nourish herself.

Fresh river prawns and vegetables are indispensable. The county is not like Songjia Village. There are vegetable fields at home and fish and shrimp in the pond. They buy everything.

Song Dalang knew that Wen Bao was going to cook today, because she had indeed lost a lot of weight recently, so after going out, he bought a lot according to Wen Bao's needs.

Wash the river prawns twice with clean water, add green onion, ginger, salt and fruit wine to the water and boil it. The method of brine shrimp is simple, and what you eat is the freshness and tenderness of the river prawns.

After the two chickens were slaughtered, they were boiled in the same water with green onion, ginger and fruit wine. Wen Bao prepared ice water when cooking the chicken, and when the chicken was poked with chopsticks and no blood came out, the chicken was taken out and put into the ice water.

After heating and freezing, the skin of the chicken shrinks rapidly. This kind of chicken skin is refreshing, crisp and tender, and it will be very delicious.

Saliva chicken is mainly seasoning, but children can't eat spicy food, Wen Bao can only adjust two seasonings.

"Sister-in-law Si, I cut up half a chicken and shared some other dishes, which are all packed in food boxes. You can send someone to deliver it to Brother Si."

According to Wen Bao's understanding of her fourth brother Wen Chengquan, he would definitely not come back for lunch today. The food at home today was good, so it was natural to send it to him.

"Okay, I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some other dishes. The county government has a lot of people, and if they grab it, there may not be enough dishes."

As soon as Wen Liushi's words came out, Wen Bao was taken aback for a moment, she hadn't thought of this, but in this way, there might not be enough food.

"Then prepare more, and take half of the chicken. I forgot that there are others in the county government. Children love to eat, so I will do it tomorrow."

Wen Liushi originally wanted to refuse and keep more of Wen Bao's dishes at home, but seeing her resolute attitude, she could only agree with her and let the kitchen distribute some more dishes.

One chicken leg was not enough for each of the children, so Tuantuan sensiblely gave two chicken legs to his younger brother, and divided the wings between his mother and four aunts, so she could only eat thick chicken breasts with her father.

"Mother prepared less today, this dish is easy to cook, and mother will cook more tomorrow."

"It's okay, mother has a hard pregnancy, wait for the cook to learn it, and then eat Tuan Tuan."

Tuantuan's very sensible words moved everyone, especially Wen Bao, who felt comfortable because of her words.

"Mother's tuantuan is sensible. The method of this water chicken is simple, mainly because the seasoning is complicated. In the future, mother can often make it."

Wen Bao has eaten a lot of various cold dishes before, because she loves to eat, she liked to study recipes in her previous life when she was free.

I didn't have a chance to try it before, but now that I'm here, I have a lot of time and the ingredients are good. If some ingredients are not available here, she can cook more dishes.

Wen Bao and the others were still eating, and the servant who delivered Wen Chengquan's meal came back. He brought back a large piece of beef. He said that a farmer's cowshed collapsed and killed the cow during a thunderstorm last night. Master Liu learned about it this morning. Then he sent someone to buy the cattle.

Wen Bao was also very happy to learn that there was beef to eat. It is too hot to eat braised sauce in summer, but she can make sauce beef and salted beef, which are also very delicious.

Master Liu learned that the beef given by Wen Bao was very large after he was in the county seat, and he said it was for the two pregnant women and their children.

At noon, Wen Bao didn't sleep because of handling the beef. She didn't go to bed until the beef was processed and put into the pot.

There was too much beef, so besides stewed beef and brine beef, she also made some beef jerky for the children to eat slowly.

Boil the beef bone soup and save it for noodles. It is absolutely delicious.

Wen Bao has been thinking about what to eat for five consecutive days, and the county town has been extremely lively because of the recruiting meeting these two days. Wu Wanjin, who learned that Wen Bao has new dishes here, rushed to Wen Cheng's family and bought all of Wen Bao's recipes Walk.

After resting for a few days and eating for a few days, after he obviously felt his body recovered, Wen Bao planned to take Tuantuan and Pangpang to the market by the Qinglong River.

"The day after tomorrow we will go to the market in Qinglongjiang. After playing for a day, we will come back here to rest for a day and then go home."

As soon as Wen Bao finished speaking, Tuantuan and Pangpang immediately nodded.

"Mother, I want to buy a gift for Jingyan, I promised her, and sister Afu, I promised her too."

In fact, she had already prepared new clothes, new hats and bags for Jingyan and Afu, but she still felt that it was not enough and needed other things.

Pangpang also agreed to bring gifts to Xue Mao and Liquan's two sons, so when he heard what Tuantuan said, he immediately raised his head to look at Wen Bao.

"Fatty, your sister can earn money now, but you haven't, what should I do?"

Wen Bao was just teasing Pangpang at first, who knew that he would think seriously after hearing this sentence.

Seeing his son thinking seriously, Wen Bao looked at Tuantuan with a smile.

"Fatty, how about my sister lending it to you?"

Tuantuan spoke seriously, but Pangpang still shook his head.

Pangpang's performance really surprised Wen Bao and Tuantuan. Song Dalang, who had just entered the door, saw that the expressions of the two of them were still puzzled, so he heard Pangpang's milky voice: "Mother, Pangpang will pinch your legs for you. Can you give Pangpang money?"

Wen Bao was really surprised that Pang Pang came up with such a method, but she didn't want to reject Pang Pang's proposal.

"Okay, not only mother, but also your father and sister, Pangpang can get paid for pinching our legs or helping us carry things."

Wen Bao said it seriously, Pang Pang didn't understand it very well, but he knew that if he pinched his mother's legs, he could get money.

"Mom, fat..."

"Tuantuan, in fact, it's good for Pangpang. When he grows up, I will teach him to distinguish between filial piety and wages. But he is still young, and it's the first time he uses his brain. We can't refuse him."

It was precisely because this was the first time for Pangpang that Wen Bao agreed that he could get a copper plate with just a few squeezes with his limp little hands.

What she has always taught her children is that there is no free lunch in the world. Now that the children are still young, their parents are obliged to educate and raise them, but when they grow up, they must have the ability to support themselves.

For this point, Wen Bao was very insistent.

She doesn't want to raise a child who gnaws on the old. Now Pangpang knows that if she wants money to buy gifts for others, she needs to earn money. This is a good sign.

The whole family couldn't change what Wen Bao insisted on. After pinching his father, mother and sister with his chubby and limp little hands, he would get a lot of copper coins.

Chubby, who was holding the copper plate, smiled happily and asked Wen Bao to put it on for him, and he wanted to put it on his body to buy things.

Up to now, no matter whether it is New Year's money or gifts from others, the two children have been packed in boxes by Wen Bao, so it is not surprising that Pang Pang has such a request at this time.

Wen Liushi learned that Wen Bao was finally going back to Songjia Village, so she also started to pack her things.

This recruitment meeting was very successful. There were not many people on the first day, but on the second and third day, many people arrived after hearing the news.

The most surprising thing is that the major merchants in the county also joined in the fun at this recruitment meeting.

In Wu Wanjin's words, this kind of recruitment meeting can be held several times in the future, and he will provide financial sponsorship, as long as he can select a few talents.

The recruitment meeting ended perfectly. Master Liu asked Wen Chengquan to lead them to get acquainted with them and he could leave after two days, so Wen Chengquan was very busy these two days.

When it came time to go to the Qinglongjiang market, Wen Bao and the others got up early, not only because it was cool early in the morning, but also because there would be a lot of parallel imports on the Qinglong River in the morning.

If you want to eat fresh parallel imports, you can only rush to Qinglongjiang earlier, and they also need to buy gifts, which will definitely take a lot of time.

"Auntie, I want to go too."

"If you want to go and follow, if you want to meet with your aunt or not, let your uncle carry you up."

As soon as Wen Bao took Tuantuan and Pangpang into the mule cart, Wen Zhuoqian ran out of the yard and looked at her pitifully. The big eyes unique to the Wen family made her heart melt. How could she disagree.

Wen Liushi came out holding his waist and saw his son being carried into the mule cart by Song Dalang, then shook his head and said: "Sister, I will let people drive the carriage to follow you, and they will help you take care of the child when you arrive at the market."

"It's arranged like this. Fourth sister-in-law, go back and rest. Let someone pack up your things. We will go home tomorrow."

Wen Liushi nodded, and after Wen Bao put down the curtain, Song Dalang drove the mule cart away to the Qinglongjiang market.
