Siheyuan, I became a commercial tycoon in the culinary world

Her smile is gentle and shy, making people feel very friendly.

There was no trace of blame in her eyes, but instead they were full of understanding and tolerance.

Her manners are elegant and graceful, which makes people feel good about her.

Seeing this, the deaf grandmother said, "Zhu Zi, since the rain has returned and you have to prepare dinner, why don't I bring He Hua to have a meal with you tonight..."

There was a hint of anticipation in the deaf grandma's tone, and her eyes were full of desire for the food.

The deaf grandmother knew that He Yuzhu was a good cook, and she also wanted to let the girl taste He Yuzhu's cooking skills.

At the same time, she also hopes that by eating together, everyone can become more familiar with each other and enhance their feelings for each other.

He Yushui was stunned for a moment when she heard this. A puzzled look appeared on her face. She opened her eyes wide and raised her voice to ask, "Deaf Grandma, what did you say? You want to have dinner with this sister at my house?"

As soon as Yu Shui finished saying this, he keenly noticed a hint of unnaturalness flashing across the face of the girl named Lotus.

There seemed to be a hint of shyness and embarrassment in that look.

As soon as Yu Shui saw it, she immediately understood what the deaf grandma meant.

Yu Shui wanted to make a few more jokes, but at this moment, her brother He Yuzhu heard what the deaf grandmother said.

He Yuzhu agreed very readily: "That's fine! I'll make a few more dishes later..."

Seeing this, He Yushui had no choice but to swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

She rolled her eyes and said, "Then I'll go pick the vegetables for you first."

"Okay! Let's go together! Eat early, finish homework early, and go to bed early..." He Yuzhu said to He Yushui.

"Brother, you forgot. Tomorrow is Sunday. I won't be going to school. I'm going to sleep in..."

"You? You, every Sunday is like this..."

"Brother, it's not too much to sleep in once a week! Anyway, it's better than you. You go to work at nine or ten o'clock every day..."

"Yushui, you're not bad! You know how to compare to me..." Then he smiled and said, "Lazy girl, you're so diligent today, are you craving for sweet and sour carp again..."

"Brother, how did you know?..."

"I raised you, how could I not know what you were thinking? Let's go, since you asked me to pick the vegetables for you, let's go to the kitchen quickly..."

He Yuzhu said this and pushed He Yushui, and then the two of them walked towards the kitchen side by side.

The girl stood there, looking a little embarrassed. She whispered to the deaf grandmother, "Grandma, isn't it bad to just go to someone else's house and eat for free?"

The deaf grandmother disagreed. She raised her chin slightly and said earnestly, "Silly girl, I have always treated this Zhu as my grandson.

And don't you want to stay in the city? Isn't this a perfect opportunity? Zhuzi is only five years older than you, and he doesn't have parents to take care of. In addition, he is a good cook. Isn't this a ready-made good partner?

If you succeed, it will be even better than before."

"Grandma, didn't you just say that I came here to escape famine? Why now...?" The girl's face showed confusion.

"Silly girl, you came to my house to escape famine in the first place! Wouldn't it be better to put it this way? If it works, it works. If it doesn't, you just came to escape famine, and there's no loss." The deaf grandmother's eyes were full of shrewdness.

"Grandma, I..." The girl hesitated, her cheeks flushed.

"Okay, I don't know how many matchmakers I have found for Zhuzi in the past few years. I have spent a lot of money, but it just didn't work out.

If you capture him for me, I won't treat you unfairly."

The deaf grandmother patted the girl's hand, full of anticipation.

"Grandma..." The girl felt mixed emotions.

But He Yuzhu had no idea that the deaf grandmother had such thoughts in her heart.

Judging from the standards he used to choose a wife in later life, he really had no interest in this girl.

Besides, he can't just take advantage of someone's misfortune, right?

The girl just came here to avoid trouble, but you want her to marry you. This is really inappropriate.

Therefore, He Yuzhu did not think about it, but just thought that the deaf grandmother had not eaten at home for a long time, so he had to prepare two good dishes, otherwise he would really let down the Ming Dynasty vase that was about to be obtained.

Fortunately, He Yuzhu always has a habit of preparing some meat and keeping live fish at home in advance, otherwise he would not be able to cope with today.

Besides, since He Yushui followed us, we couldn't cook chicken in the space, otherwise we could have another delicious fried chicken dish...

So he asked the rain to wash a cabbage, a handful of radishes, some peppers, and garlic...

Then he walked to the wooden barrel, reached out and steadily grabbed a lively crucian carp from the barrel.

I saw him start to kill the fish skillfully, first carefully removing the scales.

Then, he deftly removed the internal organs, head and tail, and rinsed them repeatedly with clean water.

He then carefully made a few cuts on both sides of the fish, making sure each cut was just right, just to make the fish better flavored during the subsequent cooking process.

Then, he evenly applied a layer of salt inside and outside the fish body. The salt grains fell on the fish like crystal snowflakes. Then he sprinkled an appropriate amount of pepper, and the aroma of pepper instantly spread.

He then added chopped ginger and green onion segments, poured in cooking wine, and marinated for 10 minutes to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor.

Then pour an appropriate amount of cooking oil into the pot. As the oil temperature rises, it begins to smoke slightly. He carefully heats it to about 60% to 70% hot and slowly puts the marinated fish into the pot.

Suddenly, a sizzling sound came from the pot, and the fish in the pot gradually turned golden.

He patiently fried it over medium-low heat until both sides were golden brown. The golden color was as dazzling as the autumn sun.

Leaving some oil in the pot, he put in scallions, ginger and garlic, which rolled in the hot oil, emitting an enticing aroma, and then sautéed them. He added an appropriate amount of bean paste, which was quickly fried in the pot to produce red oil, which was like a gorgeous sunset.

He added seasonings such as light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and white sugar. The addition of each seasoning seemed to add a unique color to this delicacy.

Next, he added enough water, brought it to a boil over high heat, then simmered it over low heat for about 10 minutes to allow the fish to fully absorb the flavor of the soup.

During these long 10 minutes, the aroma of the soup gradually permeates every texture of the fish, as if a delicious fusion is taking place.

Finally, he collected the sauce and served it on a plate, sprinkled it with chopped green onions or coriander. The chopped green onions and coriander dotted the fish like green gems, adding color and aroma. The thick soup made this braised crucian carp even more tempting.

After making the braised crucian carp, he did not stop at all and started to busy himself with making a plate of Mu Shu pork.
