In the book, the female supporting role dreams of being an idle fish

Jiang Wen used a large enamel pot that could be used for eating and drinking.

In the morning at work, I just read the newspaper, drink tea and go to the toilet.

At noon, Jiang Xiu made corn noodles again.

Saozi is scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

Yes, there is progress.

After dinner, Jiang Wen first gave the children a bath while Gu Lixia continued to cut their hair.

New semester, new atmosphere.

The hair is too long and inconvenient.

Jianghuaixi was the first to be washed.

Sitting on the stool, with his neck shrunk and motionless.

Put on the plastic sheet and let Jiang Huaixi pinch the hole on his chest himself.

Gu Lixia finished cutting it in no time.

Jiang Xiuxia lifted the plastic sheet and used a brush to help clean the neck.

Then Jiang Huainan finished washing and started cutting his hair.

Jiang Huaixi was pushed in again and his hair was broken.

Then there was Jiang Huaibei, who kept muttering that he was too full.

Huainan went in and broke his hair.

Then Jiang Wen also washed his hair.

After the haircut, Jiang Wen went into the bathroom to clean it up.

Jiang Xiu and Gu Lixia took turns washing up.

There is not much time left after washing up.

Gu Lixia took an apple and broke it in half.

Half for me and half for Jiang Wen.

Everyone else has gone to bed.

After eating, continue to work.

I ate melon all afternoon.

Except for Gu Lixia who lives in the staff quarters.

The others do not live in the family compound, but live in all directions of Jiangcheng, east, west, south and north.

It was through this experience that Gu Lixia learned that Jiangcheng used to be divided into east, west, south and north regions.

The east district is expensive, while the west district is cheap.

The south district is rural, the north district is rich.

My home is in the North District.

Most of the houses in the North District are self-built and passed down from ancestors.

After eating melon, go home from get off work.

I locked the door at home and went to Hewanwan.

Sure enough, they are all here.

It’s almost time to send the geese back.

In Gu Lixia’s memory, the 2.5 yuan tuition fee for elementary school was not enough to buy textbooks.

Three yuan per semester for the first two years of middle school.

The fee for the next two years is 5 yuan per semester.

You have to ask Jiang Xiu, she just graduated from elementary school.

Sure enough, it was still the original money.

Gu Lixia gave Jiang Xiu 9 yuan. "Your brother and I can't go either, so tomorrow I need you to pay their fees first. Then I'll pay your own."

Jiang Xiu also took it. "Okay, no problem. You still need to get me our household registration booklet. It's mainly needed for registration. Tomorrow, I need you to look after Huaixi. I'm worried I won't be able to keep an eye on him with so many people around. I'm afraid someone might take him away."

"Okay, no problem. I've been mentally prepared for a long time, and Huaixi isn't bad either." After Gu Lixia finished speaking, she went back to the house to get the household registration booklet and handed it to Jiang Xiu.

Jiang Wen made mung bean porridge for dinner.

After drinking and washing up, Gu Lixia also asked Huainan, "I see no one has come to wash up in the past two days. What's the reason?"

"The adults don't want to carry water for our family. They say that one person doesn't need two loads for a bath. They don't want us to take advantage. But Yu Dani has registered for tomorrow. I don't know if they will come over tomorrow." Huainan scratched his head and said.

Gu Lixia said, "That's exactly what I want. I don't want to wait on them. We'll be fine if they come, and we'll be happy if they don't. Go back to sleep."

He sent Huainan back to his room to sleep and closed the door.

Go into the house, into the space, and continue cooking.

The first thing Gu Lixia taught Jiang Wen to make was stir-fried chicken breast with broccoli.

Dice the chicken breast and chop the broccoli, carrots, and tomatoes.

Add salt, cooking wine, light soy sauce, white pepper and black pepper to the chicken breast, mix well and marinate for 10 minutes.

Blanch the broccoli and carrots in hot water in a pot, remove from the pot, drain and set aside.

Heat oil in a pan, sauté ginger and minced garlic, add chicken breast, and stir-fry until it changes color.

Add the blanched broccoli, carrots and tomatoes and stir-fry evenly.

Then add oyster sauce and salt, stir-fry evenly and serve.

Next is the stir-fried pork.

Wash the pork belly and cut into thin slices.

Slice the red pepper, ginger, onion and garlic.

Heat the pan and oil, pour in the pork belly and a spoonful of cooking wine, and stir-fry over high heat.

Stir-fry the pork belly until slightly charred, then add ginger, onion, garlic, peppercorns, and half a spoonful of dark soy sauce and stir-fry quickly.

Stir-fry the pork belly until it turns brown, add green and red peppers, onions, add appropriate amount of salt and continue stir-frying over high heat.

When the green and red peppers are 80% cooked, pour in light soy sauce, thicken with water starch, season with chicken powder and stir-fry evenly, then remove from the pan and serve.

Next is the braised spareribs. Soak the spareribs in water to remove the blood and then rinse them. Put them in a pot with cold water, add ginger slices and cooking wine to remove the fishy smell. After the water boils, cook for a few minutes, remove from the pot, drain and set aside.

Put oil in the pan, add rock sugar and stir-fry until the sugar turns brown.

Add the ribs and fry until both sides are golden brown.

Add 2 star anise, 2 bay leaves, 1 piece of cinnamon, appropriate amount of scallion segments, ginger slices, and dried chili segments, and stir-fry over low heat until fragrant.

Then add 2 spoons of braised soy sauce, 2 spoons of light soy sauce, 2 spoons of oyster sauce and a little salt to season.

Add enough water to cover the ribs. Cover and simmer for 25 minutes.

Add the potato cubes and continue to simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the pot when the potatoes are cooked.

Jiang Wen didn't expect that the aroma of the ribs he cooked would fill the whole house.

It also has a slightly sweet taste!

Finally, make the homemade stir-fried cowpeas with meat and cut the cowpeas into sections.

Put the cowpea segments into a basin, pour in an appropriate amount of water, add a little salt and soak for a while, then wash them clean and set aside.

Cut the pork belly into thin slices.

Chop the green onion and ginger and set aside.

Heat oil in a pan, add pork belly and stir-fry.

Add onion and ginger and continue to stir-fry.

Pour in the pea segments and stir-fry evenly.

Add appropriate amount of salt and soy sauce to season and continue stir-frying. Finally, add a little chicken essence and serve.

Gu Lixia only heated up the steamed buns and made stir-fried leeks with dried tofu. She washed the leeks and cut them into sections; she removed the seeds from the red pepper and cut them into shreds.

Wash the dried tofu and cut into thin strips.

Heat oil in a wok, add dried tofu and fry until golden brown.

Add light soy sauce, oyster sauce and a little salt to season, and add a little water.

Keep stir-frying until the dried tofu absorbs the soup and becomes soft and fluffy. Add the leeks and red pepper shreds and stir-fry until the leeks are soft and then remove from the pan.

Jiang Wen had been observing for so long that he had already figured it out. "Why don't you like touching meat?"

"It's greasy. If I don't need to supplement my body's nutrition, I only like vegetarian food. I find it troublesome to cut meat with gloves. After cooking meat, I lose my appetite." As someone who wants to be a long-term couple, Gu Lixia will not hide it.

"Then if you can call me in the future, I will do it. You just need to teach me and talk." Jiang Wen said with a smile.

Gu Lixia naturally didn't hesitate to praise him. "Not bad, young man. You've made progress. Keep up the good work. Just limit your purchases outside. Otherwise, you have to make sure you have at least one meat dish every day."

"So, in the winter when the brigade slaughters pigs, we'll go back twice more. We'll say we've been to two villages and bring back 100 to 100 kilograms of meat. We'll make it into bacon. That way, even in the summer, we can still have some if we want to eat it."

"Okay, can we cook the meat in the freezer right away?" Jiang Wen likes a relationship where there can be negotiation.

Gu Lixia naturally agreed, "Sure, if you feel like doing it. I can provide technical support."
