A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

Chen Erlu had just wiped the big ox carefully at the door, even the hooves, when Chen Changsheng came back with a few children.

"Don't wipe it. If you wipe it with a big scalper, it will make you lose a layer of skin." Chen Changsheng joked with a smile.

Erlu put down the cloth in his hand, scratched his head and grinned innocently.

"Mom, why did you cook so much food today? We can't finish it with just a few of us." Chen Sanshou's voice came from the yard. As soon as he got home, he rushed into the yard and saw three large pots of vegetables on the stove. , my mouth can't help but water.

"Not just the five of us, there are more than thirty people. They are building a brick kiln for our family by the river. You guys wash your hands and carry these vegetables and tofu to the river. Mom will come later. "

The children only heard that Chen Changsheng said that the people building the kiln factory were coming today, but they did not expect that the work had actually started.

"okay!"

The children carried basins and buckets, and Chen Dafu also carried two folding tables on his back to conveniently place these vegetable basins.

"Mom, let me drive the ox cart in first."

Chen Erlu worriedly led the big ox into the yard. If there was no one at home, he was really afraid that someone would miss his ox cart.

As soon as the four of them went out, Chen Changsheng immediately ducked into the house. She bought forty cheap bowls from her bracelet. Because she bought defective bowls, the store happened to be having an event. Buy twenty and get twenty free. She only spent a total of 200 calories.

If the family builds a house in the future and hires workers, these bowls will continue to come in handy.

Next up is the highlight: fried locusts.

After Chen Changsheng skillfully removed the heads and wings of the locusts, she washed them several times with water. She put water in the pot and boiled it. After pouring some cooking wine, she scalded the cleaned locusts in the boiling water and then drained them. Control water.

The next step is to dry the pot over low heat. The purpose is to slowly dry out the water in the newly blanched locusts. This step takes a long time, about ten minutes, so you have to be patient.

During the stir-frying process, the locusts slowly emit the burnt aroma of the loach. Chen Changsheng sniffed, a little intoxicated, as if he had returned to the scene of running in the countryside when he was a child.

Wait until they have shrunk and their bodies have changed color and become brown, then you can cook them.

Chen Changsheng did not waste the oil she used to fry the pork belly in the morning. She poured a little oil into the pan, heated the pan and cooled the oil, poured the stir-fried locusts into the pan and slowly fried them. She controlled the heat while frying, and waited for the outside of the locusts to fry. It's ready to be served until golden, crispy and shiny.

Finally, prepare the cumin powder and chili powder, sprinkle a pinch of salt and mix them all before eating.

Chen Changsheng directly pinched a big one with his hands and threw it into his mouth. It was crunchy, crunchy and fragrant!

She put the dishes and chopsticks in the basket on her back and carried a big basin in her hand. She locked the yard and headed towards the river.

Chen Changsheng walked very fast, reaching the river almost as fast as several children.

The thirty or so people who built the kiln factory were working hard and sweating profusely. They were both hungry and thirsty at the moment. They saw Chen Changsheng and others walking towards them with their arms full.

The unique and alluring fragrance wafting out of the basin in their hands continued to penetrate their nostrils, making everyone's stomachs pound. However, due to the presence of the team leader and foreman, the big guys could only say something embarrassed. He retracted his eyes, but he didn't take a sneak peek.

Chen Changsheng chose a cool place under the shade of a tree, put down the guy and said with a smile, "Brother, masters, you have been busy all morning. Come over and have lunch."

The leading man jogged over a few steps and said with a serious face, "Excuse me, aunt. We all brought pancakes, but we didn't bring water. We were a little choked just eating the pancakes. Can you please give me some water, and we'll eat it?" Just a few mouthfuls of water and dry food."

"How can that be done? Brother, you have been working all morning. You can only eat pancakes to satisfy your hunger. I have already prepared the rice. It is too hot to keep it. If you don't eat it, you can't throw it away and waste it. Call the master quickly. Let’s come over and eat.”

Although there are many workers and it is difficult to cook a big pot of rice, fortunately, there is no requirement to prepare a few dishes and a few soups. It is not a problem to prepare three dishes and one soup for 40 people.

Besides, on such a hot day, people will start working hard for their families as soon as they arrive in the morning. If they compare their feelings with others and prepare a meal for them, they will work more attentively and harder.

The man looked at the several large basins placed on the small table, each of which was full of color and fragrance, as well as the white and tender tofu brains in the wooden barrels. They looked very tempting.

He swallowed and said sheepishly, "Then we won't be polite." The man turned to the thirty or so people working and said, "Everyone, put your work aside and come over to eat."

A group of people cheered and gathered around.

Chen Changsheng was in charge of serving the dishes. She held a spoon and shouted, "Don't crowd, please line up. Everyone is welcome. Brother, please help maintain order."

Under the gaze of the foreman, the masters lined up one by one, and Erlu and Sanshou also helped organize.

"Dafu, you are responsible for serving the rice." Chen Changsheng ordered.

Chen Dafu picked up a bowl, scooped out a spoonful of firm rice, and then handed the bowl to the chef opposite. The chef then took the bowl and went to Chen Changsheng's place to queue up for food. An assembly line was formed.

"A spoonful of pork slices, a spoonful of vermicelli, a spoonful of Chinese cabbage, and a few more of these crispy crunchies to try. After the meal, there is iced tofu curd to drink. Don't forget to bring the bowls and continue to serve them." Chen Changsheng He was talking while getting food.

After finishing the meal, the chefs carried their bowls in twos and threes and found a place under the shade of a nearby tree to sit down and eat slowly.

"Sister-in-law, what is this crystal clear thing you made? How can the juicy and tender meat be so delicious?" asked a chef holding a half-bitten piece of meat.

"Yeah, I also want to say that this thing is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It's really delicious." Another person said with a bulging mouth.

Even the foreman, the man who drives the bullock cart, is well-informed and knows a lot about the food. He tasted it and thought it was delicious.

"This is called pork slices. The outside of the pork is coated with a layer of flour and fried slowly, then covered with sauce. If the chefs think it tastes good, they can just add another spoonful. We still have it here."

While Chen Changsheng was talking, he was serving dishes to his children, who also started eating with their bowls.

"Okay, okay." Several chefs carried the bowls over and asked Chen Changsheng to add a spoonful of pork belly.

These thirty or so people in the city specialize in working as masons and carpenters. They have built small houses for ordinary families, built large yards for wealthy families, and worked in kilns, but there are very few families. Being able to make such delicious food, even wealthy people are rarely willing to use fried pork to make food for them.

I didn’t expect that a small and inconspicuous village like Chenjiacun could have people who cook so delicious food and treat them with such care.

"Mom, the pork belly you made today is really delicious. What's this brown and crispy thing about? It's crispy, spicy and fragrant. It's so delicious!"

Chen Sanshou held a fried locust on his chopsticks and asked with a mouth full of oil.
