pregnant woman back to the farm

The preparations for entering the house wine began at noon.

Since it was a banquet, it was naturally different from the usual dinner. The assortment of meat dishes in the kitchen alone was enough for Jing Junsheng to be busy for most of the day.

We must know that in the banquets in the countryside, all the dishes are eaten, so Jing Junsheng will naturally not stand alone. The menus he ordered are almost all dishes from ordinary banquets, and he pays attention to chicken, duck, fish and meat.

The first thing to prepare is the sea cucumber chicken soup. The sea cucumber has been soaked in advance, and the chicken is also cut into the appropriate size by the owner of the stall.It was the first time for Jing Junsheng to cook sea cucumbers, so he was inevitably a little nervous.Then he took out medicinal materials such as wolfberry, red dates, and Codonopsis pilosula from the cabinet, washed them, put them into the pot together with the chicken nuggets, added water to boil, and skimmed off the foam on top.Then simmer on low heat until the chicken is about half cooked, add sea cucumber and continue to simmer for several hours.

Letting the soup in the pot simmer slowly, Jing Junsheng started to handle the duck again.Braised duck with ginger is one of his specialty dishes. Wash the duck meat and cut into pieces, slice the ginger, and stir-fry slowly over low heat.When the meat turns pale, start pouring cooking wine, pour in an appropriate amount of soy sauce, bean paste, and add fresh rock sugar.After stirring well, it can be covered and simmered until the soup thickens.

Already sweating profusely, Jing Junsheng didn't have time to stop. He still remembered the pig's tendons that he wanted to eat some time ago, and brought out a pot of newly bought pig's feet.The usual way is to braise it in soy sauce. Put onion and ginger in a hot pan to sauté until fragrant, then add star anise, cinnamon and other spices. After the aroma comes out, take these things out and leave the oil in the pan.Then add an appropriate amount of rock sugar, cook until it melts, then pour the cooked pig's trotters into the stir-fry, add soy sauce and other sauces and the spices just now, and stir-fry until even.Naturally, water needs to be added afterwards. There is no pressure cooker here in the new house, so we had to use an ordinary pot to cook until the pig’s trotters became soft and rotten.

"Dad, taro!" Guoguo ran in suddenly, holding two big taro in his hand.

Zhou Ran followed behind: "Begging for praise, I deliberately picked the biggest one, obviously I'm the one who carried the most..."

Jing Junsheng smiled at the two and took a bag of taro: "Are you tired?"

Guoguo shook her head; "I'm not tired, it's fun to go to the small market."

"Brother Jing, are you going to make taro braised pork?" Zhou Ran's eyes were sharp, and he spotted the cooked pork belly on the cutting board.

"Yes." Jing Junsheng didn't have time to chat with them, so he picked up a toothpick and poked the skin.This step is very tiring, but she has to do it, Guoguo feels sorry for her father, and hurried over: "Dad, I will help you!" At the same time, he pulled Zhou Ran's pants, "Uncle Zhou too!"

Zhou Ran was helpless: "Leave it to us..."

"Okay." Jing Junsheng divided the tasks between the two, and immediately felt much more relaxed. He quickly began to peel the taro, cut it into thick slices, and deep-fry the taro until golden.

Not long after, the pork belly was also delivered. Jing Junsheng cut the meat into slices about the thickness of taro chips, fried it slightly, stuffed it into a steaming bowl with a piece of meat and a piece of taro, and poured it with the prepared sauce.After that, it is steamed for about four to 10 minutes. When it comes out of the pot, turn the bowl upside down, and a beautiful and delicious taro braised pork is presented in front of you.

While Jing Junsheng was cooking, the guests came one after another. Guoguo and Zhou Ran were in charge of greeting them, and by the way they showed the guests around the new house.Zou Qing felt sorry for Jing Junsheng who had been staying in the kitchen, so he also came to help and cooked boiled shrimp and steamed fish.The fish and shrimp are very fresh and cooked in a lighter way, forming a subtle complement to other dishes with a slightly stronger taste.

"Should we make more vegetables?" Zou Qing asked.

"Okay." Jing Junsheng wiped off his sweat, "Guoguo likes fried lotus root, please trouble me."

Zou Qing laughed and said, "No trouble! It's all simple stuff!"

So, a dish of stir-fried lotus root and green vegetables in oyster sauce was officially served. For the sweet-loving Zhou Ran and Guoguo, Zou Qing made another assorted corn, which was sweet and delicious.

"Oh, I forgot to soak up fans..." Jing Junsheng slapped his head.

Zou Qing comforted him: "Don't worry, there are so many dishes, and rice is cooked in the pot, and the vermicelli will be fried very quickly."

After such a toss, the night grew darker, the guests were all at the table, chatting and eating, Jing Junsheng also wiped his hands, and sat beside Guoguo.Zhao Yan picked up the wine glass: "You have worked so hard! Come on, let's have a drink!"

"Hahahahaha drink!" The men in several families like to drink, and they won't let go when their wives stare at them. Anyway, today is a good day, and they get drunk when they get drunk.

In addition to wine, a large table of dishes also won praise from everyone. The chicken is tender and smooth, the sea cucumber has a delicate taste, the pig's trotters are rich in sauce, and the duck meat is full of aroma... Even the simplest vegetables in oyster sauce are tender and refreshing.Jing Junsheng gnawed several pieces of pig's trotters, looking like a child in front of his uncle and aunt, and Guoguo next to him also had a greasy mouth.

"Ahem, let's get down to business." Zhao Yan seized the timing and cleared his throat. "Recently, everyone knows that many places in the village are under construction. Junsheng plans to connect the hills, fish ponds, orchards, and houses below. It's a large farmhouse. I invite everyone to come tonight not only to have house wine, but also to discuss with you whether you want to get involved."

Jing Junsheng's aunt spoke first; "Of course! But Junsheng, do you really want us to join?"

"It's definitely not that simple..." Jing Junsheng explained, "Now let's ask everyone's intentions, and we can wait for my side to make an effect before starting. My goal is to turn the whole village into a tourist attraction, which must be indispensable Ask your uncle for help."

The several families made eye contact with each other for a while. Since they don't need to make a decision right away, they can choose to wait and see first: "Let's take a look first. We are all farmers, so we have no idea about this!"

"Anyway, if we can make money at that time, we will definitely let everyone join the group first, and others will follow." Zhou Ran spat out a chicken bone.

Guoguo also echoed, "Yeah!"

"Hey!" Everyone laughed.
