Being able to farm: starting from moving to the village and picking up furry

In the kitchen, Xia Qingyu watched several people cooking while chatting with each other. It was warm and full of the atmosphere of home.

Xia Qingyu watched Shen Qingqing add water to the kettle, then squatted beside the stove, picked up the dry firewood that Dabai had picked up with his claws, and kept adding it to the stove.

Then she continued to process the green leeks she brought back from the mountain.

I saw Shen Qingqing holding the leeks and picking them one by one.

After picking, put them aside, making sure they are neatly arranged before moving on to the next leek.

Xia Qingyu's mouth twitched as she watched, and she felt inexplicably worried for her.

"Old Third's family, if you keep picking them one by one, you probably won't be able to finish picking them tomorrow."

Seeing the obsessive-compulsive disorder of the third daughter-in-law, Mrs. Li didn't need to look at the bundles of leeks. She knew that the third daughter-in-law would pick all the leeks in her hands, and they probably wouldn't have to eat dinner.

After Mrs. Li finished cutting the potatoes and wild duck, she went over to help her pick the leeks.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I can't help it. If I don't pick them one by one, I will feel uncomfortable and very upset."

Shen Qingqing looked up and prepared to get up to wash the leeks.

She washed them one by one, and after washing them clean, she arranged them into neat strands, even neater than when Xia Qingyu had just cut them herself.

Washing the leeks in this way will make them very clean, but the people around you will be very anxious.

Xia Qingyu quickly shifted her gaze. If she continued reading, she felt like she was going to develop obsessive-compulsive disorder.

If she wasn't in this state, she would rather wash it herself.

No wonder there was a rule in the base in the previous life, don’t let people with obsessive-compulsive disorder pick leeks.

Otherwise, if she doesn't pick them one by one, it will be her life.

If you watch her picking them one by one, it will cost the life of the person next to her.

It would be more painful for others to see, so it’s better to deal with it yourself.

It turns out that it takes a lot of effort to make a delicious meal. Sometimes, picking, washing, and cutting vegetables takes more time than cooking.

Lin Lan followed her instructions, stood beside the pot, poured the fat duck meat into the pot, and stir-fried the duck meat evenly with a wooden spoon.

When Lin Lan saw some oil in the pot, her first thought was to scoop it out and use it in the next dish.

However, her seventh sister-in-law said that she wanted to use this oil to continue frying the duck meat.

Seeing that Lin Lan was a little hesitant, Xia Qingyu understood that she wanted everyone to have some oil in every meal.

"Sister-in-law Liu, scoop out some oil. We'll use it to stew the potatoes. It will taste better."

After hearing what Xia Qingyu said, although she felt a little painful, Lin Lan still did as she was told and poured the remaining duck meat into the pot.

Half fry and half stir-fry until the duck meat changes color.

Seeing Shen Qingqing washing the leeks one by one, Lin Lan felt a little headache and hurriedly asked her to stop washing them.

"Third sister-in-law, don't wash the leeks yet, your hands will be peeled.

I'll be ready soon, wash some cherries for Seventh Sister-in-law to eat first."

"Okay, I'll go wash the cherries." Shen Qingqing also knew that it was strange for her to wash leeks, so she nodded quickly and went to wash the cherries.

"Qingyu, the duck meat is almost ready." Lin Lan turned around and asked Xia Qingyu while frying the food in the wok.

Hearing this, Xia Qingyu remembered that there were no seasonings at home.

Even the garlic and green onions that we use daily were gone, and even the most common salt was gone by noon.

But it doesn’t matter, I’ll just have to make do with today’s dinner.

Xia Qingyu said: "Sixth sister-in-law, then add boiling water to the pot so that the water covers the duck meat.

After the water boils, simmer for another half an hour. Divide the chopped potatoes into two parts, put half of them in, and continue to simmer for a quarter of an hour.

Before serving, cut some green peppers and add them in, and serve when they are cooked. ”

Seeing that she didn't know what peppers were and was confused, Xia Qingyu pointed to the green peppers beside her and explained, "That's the green thing that burned people's eyes on the mountain before."

"Okay, then do you want to add salt?" Lin Lan followed Xia Qingyu's instructions, added boiling water into the pot, and covered it with a wooden lid.

Hearing about salt, Xia Qingyu asked, "Any more salt?"

Lin Lan nodded, "Originally there was none left, but my eldest brother and his friends would always bring some with them when they went up the mountain, so there's enough for us to eat tonight."

"Of course it must be put in. Just put it in with the potatoes." Xia Qingyu said, looking forward to tonight's dinner.

She hasn't had much delicious food since the end of the world.

Some salt is fine, it's better than no salt.

I still have to find a way to make money as soon as possible, otherwise I won’t even be able to afford salt.

Shen Qingqing washed the wild cherries and brought them to Xia Qingyu, "Seventh brother's sister, have some cherries, they are very sweet."

"Thank you, third sister-in-law. You just eat it." Xia Qingyu was about to take it, but found that her hands were still soft, so she shook her head and changed her words.

Thinking of Xia Qingyu's soft hands, Shen Qingqing patted her head and said, "I forgot that your hands hurt. Well, if you don't mind, I'll give it to you to eat."

"No, no." Xia Qingyu was slightly stunned, feeling a little uncomfortable for a moment.

Thinking that she was still angry with her, Shen Qingqing lowered her head, feeling a little at a loss.

She bit her lower lip, tugged at her clothes, then looked up and apologized to Xia Qingyu, "I'm sorry, Seventh Sister-in-law, I didn't mean to poke you in the heart today."

Xia Qingyu shook her head at her, indicating that she was fine. "It's okay, Third Sister-in-law, you were very emotional at that time, it's normal."

"Then Sixth Sister-in-law will keep you company while I go make the stewed potatoes with leeks that you mentioned." After saying that, Shen Qingqing handed the wild cherries in her hand to Xia Qingyu.

Remembering that her hands were inconvenient, Shen Qingqing turned around and handed it to Lin Lan.

"The food you cooked is delicious, sister-in-law." Xia Qingyu nodded and smiled at her.

Shen Qingqing's eyes warmed up and she grinned at Xia Qingyu, "As long as you don't mind, Third Sister-in-law will often make delicious food for you in the future."

"Thank you, Third Sister-in-law." Xia Qingyu responded slowly.

In fact, she did not lie. She had no food to eat at the Niu family before, and Shen Qingqing gave her steamed buns, which she thought were the most delicious.

Holding the bowl of wild cherries, Lin Lan glanced at her third sister-in-law and gave her a thumbs up.

On the wood stove, one pot was stewing potatoes and duck meat, one pot was making leeks and potatoes stewed for Shen Qingqing, and the other was used to boil hot water for washing vegetables.

Every household in Huangzhu Village has one of this kind of wood-burning stove.

The stove built by the Li family was not the largest, but it was not small either. It was just the right size for three pot racks lined up in a row.

There is a family in the village with a large stove that can hold many pots and is convenient to use.

Especially when there are many people in the family, or when there are festivals like the New Year, it is very useful for both large stews and small stir-fries.

I saw Lin Lan and Old Lady Li quickly prepare the leeks and chop them into small pieces, and then cut the peppers for stewing the wild duck.

Xia Qingyu suggested the method of stewing leeks and potatoes, which saved the trouble of frying, and told Shen Qingqing to follow it, "Third sister-in-law, heat up the oil that Sixth sister-in-law cooked, and add boiling water. You don't need too much water, just one bowl will do.

Then put in the potatoes that my mother and the others had cut into pieces, and cover the potatoes with chives.

Add salt at the same time, cover with a lid and simmer for about a quarter of an hour. "

"By the way, remember to turn it over halfway through so that it doesn't cook unevenly." Xia Qingyu and Shen Qingqing briefly explained the method.

If you have seasoning, even if it is garlic, you can sauté the garlic in oil, and then add water to make it more fragrant.

Following Xia Qingyu's instructions, Shen Qingqing put all the ingredients into the pot and finally covered it with a lid.

The potatoes and duck stewed in the pot continuously emit the aroma of meat.

The aroma mixed with another dish of braised potatoes with leeks is so tempting.

The people in the kitchen swallowed their saliva from time to time.

Fortunately, Xia Qingyu and his friends picked wild cherries. Before the stew was served, they tasted the sweetness of the cherries while chatting.

Seeing that the people in the house had not come out yet, Mrs. Li and Shen Qingqing became a little worried and went into the house to check.

Holding the cherries, Lin Lan pulled over a stool and sat with her seventh brother's wife by the kitchen door.

Lin Lan picked a big one and fed it to Xia Qingyu, "Qingyu, eat a cherry."

Xia Qingyu was stunned, feeling a little uncomfortable.

She really wanted to eat cherries, but she was not used to being fed.

"My wife, let me feed you." A gentle male voice sounded.
