His predecessor failed

Before it was time to get off work, the aroma of the marinade wafted ten meters away. Su Zhuzhu poked the pig's trotter with chopsticks, added a dozen boiled and peeled pheasant eggs, and boiled for another ten minutes. Then she found a basin to pour out the marinade from the pot and let it soak in the flavor.

There were a lot of meat and vegetables, so Su Zhuzhu decided to raise the fish, eels and loaches first and eat them tomorrow.

For dinner today, I will make a chicken stewed with mushrooms, a salt-baked chicken, crayfish, rabbit meat with double peppers, pork with mashed garlic, braised eggplant and green beans, loofah soup, and stir-fried Chinese cabbage with oil residue. I will invite Zheng Qiwen and the others to come over to eat together.

Su Zhuzhu went into full swing, first marinating the salt-baked chicken with the seasoning she had secretly taken out, and then began to stew the chicken and simmer the rice.

The rabbit was chopped into cubes, half a bowl of green and red peppers were cut, and He's mother peeled a large bowl of garlic.

Su Zhuzhu asked Lin Wu to go to the fields to inform Liu Yuanyuan and the others to come back for dinner after work. She also asked He's mother to go and have a rest, as the dishes had been prepared and she didn't need her help. When Lin Wu came back, the chicken would be stewed and it would be time to light the fire. Seeing that the arrangement was good, He's mother went back to her room to tidy up her things.

In fact, Su Zhuzhu secretly put the salt-baked chicken into the space and stewed it in the rice cooker, otherwise it would be difficult to control the heat on the wood stove.

After Lin Wu came back to light the fire, Su Zhuzhu started to fry the crayfish.

This was definitely the most exciting time for Lin Wu to cook. How did Zhuzhu make this crayfish, which looked like a bug, so delicious? Lin Wu had never eaten crayfish before, and didn't know the influence of crayfish on the dining tables of later generations. After tasting it, he didn't want to go back to Beijing. When he was transferred outside after the Chinese New Year, he directly asked He's father to apply for the 624th Army, so that he could be closer to the girls, but a little away from the crayfish.

Pour more rapeseed oil into the pot and heat it up, then put about five pounds of crayfish into the pot and stir-fry. When the crayfish turn dark red, serve them. Add more oil to the pot, add the sauce that Su Zhuzhu has prepared in advance with onion, ginger, garlic, chili and bean paste for hot pot, and stir-fry until fragrant. Then pour the crayfish into the pot, stir-fry evenly, then add boiling water and simmer.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Su Zhuzhu poured in two plates of chopped cucumber strips, stir-fried them for a few times, then removed from the pan and put them into a large bowl. She sprinkled a handful of cooked sesame seeds and coriander, and was about to cover it with a lid to let the flavor in. When she saw Lin Wu's eyes that were full of sparks, she almost laughed out loud. She filled a large bowl, demonstrated to Lin Wu how to eat it, and let him taste it first.

Then Su Zhuzhu started cooking as Lin Wu kept slurping the crayfish.

After the white meat was cooked, Liu Yuanyuan came back early to help.

Su Zhuzhu instructed Liu Yuanyuan and Lin Wu to borrow a large table, and then took the opportunity to take out the prepared salt-baked chicken from the space. Anyway, no one knew how it was made, so when asked, they just said it was stewed in an iron bucket pot.

The remaining dishes can be fried quickly, and we can start eating after Zheng Qiwen and the others come back to clean them.

The dinner was even more sumptuous than the day Su Zhuzhu and Liu Yuanyuan treated us. There was chicken stewed with mushrooms, spicy crayfish, salt-baked chicken, diced rabbit with double peppers, pork with mashed garlic, braised eggplant and beans, stir-fried Chinese cabbage with oil residue, and loofah soup.

Even city dwellers wouldn't dare to use so much oil and water when cooking.

He's mother felt both relieved and regretful. She was relieved that Zhuzhu was such a good child and had prepared such a large table of delicious food for her, but she was regretful that there was probably little hope for this marriage.

While slurping the crayfish in her mouth, He's mother decided in her heart that she would go back and beat He Qiaojin to death.

Originally planning to go back the next day, Lin Wu decided to persuade Aunt Wu to stay for two more days. How could one meal of crayfish be enough? Didn’t he see that there were still fish and eels that hadn’t been eaten yet?

Everyone was very satisfied with the dinner, especially the crayfish. Except for Su Zhuzhu, everyone else was eating it for the first time. She saw the children in the team catching them to feed the chickens and ducks, but she didn’t expect them to be so delicious.

After eating, Liu Yuanyuan and the others quickly cleaned up the dishes, table and kitchen, and did not let Lin Wu do anything.
