Chapter 46: Delicious Food on the Road
Shen Zhiqiu sighed. He had memories and knew how much his father and others had sacrificed. Unfortunately, the world was getting so unpredictable and he didn’t know what was happening with King Yan. He could only take it one step at a time.
"What are your plans for today, little Sanzi?"
Mr. Shen is used to it now. As soon as he opens his eyes, he waits for Shen Zhiqiu to assign him tasks.
Shen Zhiqiu thought for a while and said: "We need to get more bamboo tubes to hold water today. The women should fry all the cicadas and go dig some bamboo shoots. We don't have much food left.
Try to keep things in order, simplify what needs to be simplified, and discard the old clothes that are not necessary, and the messy things that need to be thrown away.
Try to pull as much water as possible from the cart and the horse, otherwise how can we know where the next place to find water is? Just remember that food and drink are the most important, keep some clothes for winter, and throw away the rest. "
In fact, when he said this, Father Shen and Grandpa Shen could understand, but they also understood that the women in the village would definitely be reluctant to let him go, and they couldn't help but wipe away their tears again.
But there is nothing we can do. Xiao Sanzi is right. We should throw away what should be thrown away. Apart from food and drinks, nothing else matters.
The women in the camp shouted that it was time for dinner. The breakfast was a sumptuous meal, with braised offal and hand-peeled bamboo shoots made by Shen Youyou.
Shen Zhiqiu deliberately did not mention the idea of simplifying the food before the meal. Just have a good meal and eat happily.
In fact, people in the village also eat pig offal, but they really can't afford to buy meat. If they want to eat meat, they will buy some. However, this thing has a strong fishy smell and is not delicious. No one who can do anything about it is willing to eat it.
"Third sister-in-law, the water you cooked is really delicious, without any fishy smell."
Yang stood aside and sniffed. She had never eaten pig intestines before, but this one smelled so good.
Li Jingshu smiled and directed the women to cut the offal, making everyone drool with envy, including Shen Zhiqiu and Shen Youyou.
Shen Luming couldn't hold back any longer and kept trying to get closer to his mother. He didn't even ask for food, but just rubbed against Li Jingshu's thighs.
Li Jingshu: Kid, why are you hesitating here? Don’t burn yourself. I know the child is greedy, so I can only cut off a small piece of pig intestines and give it to Shen Luming first.
Shen Youyou looked at her brother with envy. She was also greedy, but she was too embarrassed to go forward and get some.
Okay, she went to peel the bamboo shoots first, and when the sisters saw her doing so they came forward to help. When the lid of the pot was opened, the smell was so overpowering, a sour and appetizing aroma.
It’s a pity that there is no chili, it would be perfect with chili.
"Oh oh, why do I feel like my stomach growling when I smell these bamboo shoots? I'm so hungry!"
Shen Youyou looked at Erya who was touching her belly, with a serious face: "Second sister, please make sure whether you are hungry because of the smell of my hands peeling bamboo shoots or the smell of my mother's stewed offal. This question is very serious, please think about it carefully."
"Hehe, I think both," Arya laughed foolishly.
Shen Youyou rolled her eyes. Her sister's emotions were not up to par.
Everything was ready, and it was time to eat. Everyone was given some braised offal and half a hand-peeled bamboo shoot, but hand-peeled bamboo shoots were not very popular.
One hundred percent of the people started by dipping their chopsticks into the marinade, including Shen Youyou who was making the bamboo shoots.
“Is this a pig’s stomach?”
Father Shen picked up a piece of pig's stomach and put it in his mouth. It was delicious.
I've eaten this before and it took a long time to chew, and it also had a fishy smell. But today, when I took a bite, it tasted so good. It would be great if I could have a glass of wine with my granddaughter.
You know what, Shen Youyou and his grandfather were in perfect sync at this moment. She ran to the car and poured a small bamboo tube of white wine.
Eating pig offal is a waste. How can she let her grandfather just eat meat and not drink alcohol? This is not her grandfather's style.
But, she told herself in her heart, this is the last time, and there are so many people, I can only let the old men have a taste, and they need a small bucket each time, and the wine can't last for a few drinks.
"Dad, it's a pig's belly,"
Li Jingshu smiled and replied that her father-in-law in her previous life loved to eat this food, and he would always drink a glass of wine with it.
So when serving the food, I habitually put more pig tripe in my current father-in-law's bowl.
Li Jingshu was just thinking about how her father-in-law in her previous life liked to drink a little wine when her daughter brought the wine over.
"If you want to drink, take a small bamboo tube and I'll share it among you. Each person can only take a small sip."
Shen Youyou actually broke her promise. This time she planned to let her father and the others have a taste. Her father must have been craving for wine.
Forget it, the luxury is over. She finally got a day off from traveling and had some braised offal. She gritted her teeth and filled two bamboo tubes.
When she was distributing the wine, her hands were shaking, for fear that she would pour too much. She was embarrassed to pour it back, but if she gave too much to some people, some people might not get any.
In the end, there were still some left. There were exactly ten old ladies in Dahe Village who were about the same age as her grandmother.
Okay, pour some for all ten old ladies, and that’s it, no one needs to worry about it anymore.
It's so pitiful, look at how each person gets only a tiny amount of wine. They are reluctant to drink it all at once, savoring it bit by bit!
"This wine and this food must be better than those in the restaurant in town!"
Shen Fugui suddenly sighed. This was the poorest family in Shenjia Village. It was not because he was lazy, but because he had been an orphan since childhood and grew up eating at many families' homes in Shenjia Village.
He is able to live well now, get married, and raise three sons, namely Da Mao, Er Mao and San Mao. That is already quite good.
He passed by the restaurant in the town several times, and he thought that he must make good money and go to that restaurant once in his life to eat, order two dishes and have a pot of wine.
Now, this wish is hopeless. I have lost my home and have to start all over again.
I used to wonder whether my son would be able to give me two dishes from a restaurant and a pot of wine when he paid his respects to me after I died.
As I was thinking about it, my nose started to sour. I didn’t expect that it would come true in just two days. The food was so delicious and the wine was so refreshing.
Shen Zhiqiu noticed Shen Fugui's unnaturalness, so he just glanced at him and then looked away.
But he casually said, "I'm not bragging, but even the restaurants in the county don't have this kind of craftsmanship, nor this kind of wine."
He was talking nonsense about the cooking skills, but the food he ate at the best restaurant in the county was definitely not as delicious as his wife's cooking.
Not to mention this wine, in those days, all the wine was turbid, and there was no distilled strong liquor for sale.
Just based on this wine, the food is better than that of the prince.
"Try this hand-peeled bamboo shoot, it's so delicious, Yoyo really wasn't lying."
Erya took a bite of the meat and thought, let’s eat the bamboo shoots first and save the good ones for later.
I was surprised when I tasted it. It was tender and crispy, and had a unique fragrance of fresh bamboo shoots.
The skin is a bit hard to chew.
"Second sister, don't eat your skin like that. I'll teach you."
Shen Youyou came over, put down the bamboo bowl, and began to peel the bamboo shoots, eating the tender part of the skin as she peeled, not wanting to waste any of it.
Until there was only one peeled bamboo shoot left, she took a bite and "Awooo!" The crispy, tender, fresh, sweet and fragrant flavors filled her entire mouth.
It made her a little unable to control herself. She missed it so much.
He ate all the bamboo shoots he was given in one breath, and his mouth moved as fast as a hamster.
