Shen Wu continued working on it until she had plucked out all the hair. At this point she stood up, poured out the water, rinsed it clean, and got another basin.

Put the chicken in and boil it again, and rinse the skin again before you feel relieved.

She stood up, put the chicken on the chopping board, and chopped it in half with a knife, leaving one half alone and cutting the other half into pieces and blanching them in water.

"This step is to remove the blood from the chicken, otherwise it will be very unpalatable." Then she cut the other half of the chicken into pieces, marinated it with soy sauce, pepper powder, green onion, ginger and cloth, and said, "Eat this half tonight."

Gu Wei nodded, she understood.

I waited for the water to boil for a while before taking out the chicken pieces and setting them aside for later. I then cleaned the bottom of the pot and waited for the water to dry.

I asked Gu Wei to stand a little further away and put lard in the pot to rub the inner wall after it was dry. Because of the temperature, the part of the inner wall that was in contact with the oil made a sizzling sound. She stuck her head out behind me and looked at it curiously.

After the oil was hot, I put in the scallion segments and quickly stirred them twice, then poured in the pierced bamboo shoots.

Because the bamboo shoots are already cooked, they can be served after turning them over for a while. Just pour some light soy sauce on them and turn them over a few times before serving.

I took out the bamboo shoots and found a place to put them, then cleaned the pot and started to stir-fry the chicken.

Put the lard into the wok until it smokes, add the scallion and ginger and stir-fry for a while, then put the chicken in and stir-fry. In this era, there was no white sugar or rock sugar, so just stir-fry the sugar color.

After stir-frying for a while until the surface of the chicken has charred marks, I quickly put it into water to stew.

Not much light soy sauce was used, but mainly a lot of salt and pepper powder, which are the main ingredients for the flavor.

After covering the pot, I turned around and asked Gu Wei if she had any questions.

“I really want to know”

I understood what she meant and explained the process to her: "The chicken will be very fragrant if you fry it in water and then oil. I also added green onions and ginger to give it flavor, and I added water later to make it taste good.

Gu Wei nodded again. I thought about it for a moment and gave her a simple task to help carry the bamboo shoots over first: "Can you do it?"

"I can!" Gu Wei's eyes lit up unusually.

Children love to complete tasks.

I asked her to wrap the bowl in a cloth and bring it over. Gu Wei was very serious and walked very slowly. I urged her in the kitchen: "If you don't hurry up, you'll get burned."

She then walked faster.

The wood stove heats up quickly, and some water went into the pot after a while. I saw that the quality was good, so I scooped out some juice to taste it. It was really good, so I quickly turned off the heat and took the pot out of the pot.

Gu Wei came back again, looking forward to seeing me. I coughed and said, "You did a great job. How about helping me get some rice next?"

Gu E ran happily to my side and looked at the other stove eagerly.

I made it earlier and it’s been simmering in the stove, so it will definitely be cooked.

When the lid was opened, the aroma of rice wafted out. I asked her to get a big basin and scoop all the rice into it.

When we were getting the rice, Gu Zhou came in from outside and said, "Let me take it, it's heavy."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took the basin and went out.

Gu Wei's cheeks were puffy with anger. I patted her head to comfort her: "Brother is worried about you and is afraid of burning you. Otherwise, how about you help me get the chopsticks and wooden spoon?"

She became happy again, took the things excitedly and ran out. I carried the big bowl of chicken and soaked the cooking pot in the kitchen before going out.

Gu Zhou had already set the table and went to the kitchen to get some bowls before she went in.

I felt a little awkward facing him, so I coughed several times.

Gu Wei didn't know why Jiang Yu suddenly coughed: "What's wrong with you?"

I couldn't say anything when I saw Gu Wei's concerned expression because I was embarrassed so I faked a cough, so I lied to her that I choked while cooking.

Gu Wei came over and insisted on looking at my throat, so I had no choice but to push her to sit on the stool.

Gu Zhou glanced at Jiang Yu and said, "If you are sick, I will accompany you to see Aunt He later.

Shen Wu quickly waved his hand to refuse, no, absolutely not!

"Let's eat," Shen Wu quickly changed the subject: "Otherwise it will get cold soon."

Gu Zhou responded, "Okay," and sat down, but Gu Wei couldn't wait any longer.

Shen Wu first used a wooden spoon to scoop rice into the three bowls, and then spoke: "Be careful when eating chicken with bones in it, don't bite it directly, it will damage your teeth. If you encounter bones, spit them out and don't eat them. The soup inside can be drunk, and it tastes especially good when mixed with rice. You can also try it."

After that, he fell silent, and Gu Wei took the spoon to try it with great interest.

Sure enough!

Gu Wei tried twice with a wooden spoon and only scooped some soup and a piece of meat, then handed it to her brother: "Brother, you try it."

Gu Zhou glanced at Shen Wu who was eating with his head down and replied, "Okay."

He scooped some meat into Gu Wei's bowl and then added some into Shen Wu's bowl, and finally it was his turn.

And he only added soup to himself.

Shen Wu originally didn't know how to get along with Gu Zhou. His behavior made Shen Wu a little unhappy, so she picked up the spoon and put a lot of meat into his bowl.

"What are you scooping soup for? Are you going to eat the meat? You made it for your sister and you made it for me so you can eat the soup yourself, right? I made half a chicken because I was afraid that you might have stomach intolerance, not that I wouldn't let you eat it."

Gu Zhou realized that she had misunderstood and quickly explained: "No... I just..."

He couldn't say it out loud because it was like this when his father was around.

Shen Wu also knew that her words were too harsh. When would she be more obedient? "I... I'm sorry, that's not what I meant. I just wanted you to try it first. When your stomach doesn't reject it, we can eat more."

Gu Wei was eating without looking up. When she heard her say that her stomach was not rejecting her food, she swallowed her food and asked, "What is stomach not rejecting?"

Seeing that Gu Zhou was also very curious, Shen Wu began to explain: "Some people are born uncomfortable with chicken or some things, which may cause vomiting or something. I am afraid that you will be the same, so I deliberately only cooked half a chicken. You can try it first. If your stomach doesn't feel uncomfortable after eating it, then it should be fine. There is another half in the kitchen, you can eat that half tonight."

"So that's it." Gu Wei suddenly realized, then lowered her head and continued to eat. Shen Wu took the wooden spoon and scooped a few more spoonfuls for Gu Zhou and said embarrassedly: "You try it, if it's okay, we can eat it in the evening."

"it is good"

Gu Zhou picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth. It tasted very fragrant, with the numbing aroma of pepper powder, and he also tasted the flavor of the rice soaked in the soup.

The soup is so delicious and rich that I couldn't help but take a few more bites with the rice.

Gu Wei quickly finished a bowl of rice and was about to get another serving, but she hesitated, not knowing whether she should use a wooden spoon.

"You can just use a wooden spoon. This is the only spoon we have at home. Use it to mix the ingredients."

After Shen Wu finished speaking, Gu Wei happily stood up, took the spoon and put another half bowl of rice in it. Rice tastes best with soup, so she made a lot of soup and scooped some meat before stopping.

Sitting down with the bowl in hand, Gu Wei praised Shen Wu's rice: "The chicken is really delicious! Although there are bones, I spit them out. The chicken soup is also delicious. I can eat a lot of rice!

Shen Wu looked at her innocent smiling face and was stunned for a moment before nodding.
