Siheyuan: Traveling through Cai Quanwu, pretending to be Uncle Shazhu

Cai Quanwu was enjoying delicious food in Fengze Garden, and Sha Zhu had just finished cooking.

Because the ingredients are limited, Shazhu’s dishes are also very simple.

The old hen was half braised and half stewed in soup.

Part of the meat was made into twice-cooked pork, and part was used to cook potatoes.

In addition, a few more materials are included.

These are all home-cooked dishes.

Silly Zhu wanted to do some tricks, but unfortunately conditions did not allow it.

But Shazhu's cooking skills are still good, and the dishes taste delicious.

The two little guys, Wu Chu and Wu Yue, smelled the fragrance in the room and came to the kitchen and were reluctant to leave.

Even Sister Zhao and the other three housewives admire Sha Zhu's craftsmanship.

Sister Zhao has only eaten the dishes cooked by Sha Zhu before, but those were all leftovers, and she has never tasted the dishes cooked by Sha Zhu.

Now that I saw Sha Zhu cooking on the spot, I realized the gap between them and the cooks.

They can't make this kind of taste with the same ingredients.

If you don't say that he is a cook, he has real skills.

"Mom, where is my father? Where has he gone? Why haven't he come back yet? The food is ready, it's time to eat."

"You clear a table and I'll serve the food."

Xiao Wu wanted to come out and tell everyone that it was time to eat, but he didn't find his father and asked.

"I didn't know, maybe I was chatting with someone."

After speaking to Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu's mother shouted to the kitchen: "Xiaoyue, go outside and call your dad back for dinner."

Xiao Wu's mother naturally called her daughter to find her father.

This is the norm in this era.

The first thing that comes to mind is my daughter when I have something to eat, and my son is the first thing that comes to mind when I have something to eat.

Xiao Wu's mother is also not exempt from vulgarity.

It just won't be so obvious.

But it can still be seen in daily life.

"understood."

In the kitchen, Wu Yue pulled her face a little reluctantly.

But there is no way, the arm cannot twist the thigh.

You can only follow orders.

Coming out of the kitchen, Wu Yue ran out quickly.

"Being a hands-off shopkeeper at home day by day is very frustrating."

Seeing her little daughter go out to call her dad, Xiao Wu's mother turned to Sister Zhao and the others to complain about Xiao Wu's father.

"it's the same."

"Yeah, they're pretty much the same."

It was hard for Sister Zhao and the others to answer this, and they did it perfunctorily.

"Hey, the family can't count on men like them."

Xiao Wu's mother sighed, stood up, wiped the table and complained.

Seeing Xiao Wu's mother getting up to clean the table, Sister Zhao and the others stood up quickly.

"You guys sit down and don't have to get up. I'll just wipe it down. The table won't be dirty."

Xiao Wu's mother said quickly when she saw Sister Zhao and the others standing up.

"It's okay. I have been sitting for a long time. It will feel more comfortable if I stand for a while."

Sister Zhao said with a smile.

"Yes, Xiao Zhao is right." Sister Liu followed behind and agreed.

At this time, Xiao Wu and Silly Zhu came out of the kitchen carrying dishes.

……

When Wu Yue went out, she saw her father chatting with a neighbor and shouted from a distance: "Dad, it's time to go home for dinner."

After shouting, Wu Yue turned around and went home.

Xiao Wu's father heard his daughter's cry and said goodbye to his neighbor with a smile.

"You guys chat, I'm going home."

"Old Wu, have a few more drinks with your son-in-law at noon."

"They say the taste of wine reflects the character of your son-in-law."

"I've heard that a son-in-law beat his father-in-law after he drank too much."

In the crowd, Lao Zheng and Xiao Wu's father were joking.

"Come on, Lao Zheng."

"It's a bad idea."

"Did your father-in-law test you like this before?"

Xiao Wu's father was very dissatisfied with Lao Zheng's bad idea and said angrily.

"I don't know if Lao Zheng ever beat my father-in-law, but I heard from his wife that he came to the house and drank too much."

A neighbor who knew something inside smiled and revealed the truth.

It’s not easy to have some fun in this day and age.

Of course you can't miss the opportunity.

Being exposed, Lao Zheng immediately broke his guard and cursed:

"roll."

Lao Zheng's defense made everyone laugh from ear to ear.

"Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you, I'm going back."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Wu's father walked directly home.

By the time Xiao Wu's father got home, the food had been served and everyone was gathered around the table.

"What are you doing? The whole family is waiting for you."

As soon as Xiao Wu's father came in, Xiao Wu's mother complained.

Seeing everyone waiting for him, Xiao Wu's father was a little embarrassed.

Guests wait for their hosts. If this spreads out, people will talk about it.

"Sit, sit, sit, sit down quickly."

"I'm going to get a bottle of wine and have a drink with Xiao He."

"Xiao He, if you don't smoke, can you drink wine?"

"I can drink some."

"That's good."

Xiao Wu's father asked everyone to sit down quickly and asked Sha Zhu if he could drink.

After getting a positive answer, he turned back to the room to get some wine.

After a while, Xiao Wu's father took a bottle of lotus white from the room and came to the table to sit down.

At the square table, Xiao Wu's father and Silly Zhu sat at the head, while Sister Zhao and Sister Liu sat at the head.

Xiao Wu, his younger siblings, and his mother sat on both sides.

Eight people just filled the table.

"Uncle, I'm coming."

Seeing Xiao Wu's father sitting down, Shazhu stood up and picked up the wine bottle. After opening it, he poured wine into the cups in front of everyone.

Silly Zhu still knows basic etiquette.

In this era, due to some historical reasons, women not only smoke more, but also drink more.

There are eight people at a table and five people drink.

Only Xiao Wu and his younger siblings didn’t drink.

Fortunately, the wine cups of this era were relatively small, like the wine glasses of later generations. After one circle, the bottle of wine was almost at its bottom.

After pouring the wine, Shazhu picked up the wine cup and said:

"Uncle, aunt, Aunt Zhao, Aunt Liu, I'd like to toast you."

After saying that, he drank all the wine in the wine cup.

Last night, Cai Quanwu kept telling Shazhu how to be discerning at the table and what to pay attention to.

Fortunately, Shazhu is not too stupid and still remembers everything.

Seeing Sha Zhu finish his drink, Xiao Wu's parents, Sister Zhao and Sister Liu all picked up their wine cups and finished the wine.

After drinking, Xiao Wu's parents quickly greeted him.

"Come on, let's all eat the food and eat the food. Don't be polite."

With that said, Xiao Wu's parents took the lead and stretched out their chopsticks to pick up the food.

If the host does not take the lead, the guests will definitely be restrained.

After eating a few bites of the food, everyone was full of praise for Shazhu's cooking skills.

Especially two little guys, it's called a wolf.

There is a saying that Shazhu does have some talent in the chef's profession.

Although there is no seasoning, the taste is no worse than in a restaurant.

After Wu Chu ate for a while, he took advantage of being favored at home and shouted loudly: "Brother-in-law, you and my sister will get married later. I will live at your house and there will be delicious food every day."

"Hahaha."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

"You bastard, what nonsense are you saying? You think it's your family and you still eat delicious food every day. Who's family can withstand the abuse?"

Xiao Wu's mother glared at her son and cursed.

"Brother, then you can't be a freeloader."

Wu Yueren is a brat and makes fun of his brother.

"Why did I eat for nothing? Then I can help my brother-in-law clean the house and take care of the children."

This little guy Wu Chu is thinking long-term.

This remark naturally caused a burst of laughter from everyone, except Xiao Wu.

I saw Xiao Wu blushing and shouting at Wu Chu:

"Wu Chu, shut up."

Bloodline suppression was still effective. When Wu Chu saw his sister getting angry, he immediately shut up.

"No problem, you can come over then and there will be a room for you."

We haven't reached those difficult years yet, so Silly Zhu doesn't mind having a little food, so he agrees immediately.

Silly Zhu promised to be happy, but Xiao Wu rolled his eyes.

Xiao Wu looked at Silhu, who was still laughing, and glared at him fiercely.

Xiao Wu's expression made Shazhu confused.

Silly Zhu sighed in his heart, as the old saying goes, a woman's heart is like a needle in the sea.
