Chapter 10 The Sensible Son

After the grass carp was washed, Gu Xi saw that Xiao Chengtu was already standing beside him, staring at the fish, showing his desire to eat.

"Go and light the fire. Dad will cook fish for you at noon." Gu Xi said.

"But the pigweed hasn't been cut yet." Xiao Chengtu was in a dilemma.

"Pigs won't die from starvation, it's okay." Gu Xi said.

"En." Xiao Chengtu immediately went to light the fire.Pigs eat and people eat, it must be that people eat is more important, and a good boy should listen to his father, Xiao Chengtu doesn't have to hesitate at all.

Xiao Chengtu is a small expert in life.After a while, the firewood was lit.After the pot was dry, Gu Xi followed the steps of cooking the vegetables first and then the meat dishes, first cooking the sliced ​​meat and fried potatoes, and then cooking the braised fish.

Although the common people in the 57s were frugal and ate sweet potatoes, corn, and some brown rice and miscellaneous grains, there was still no shortage of supplies, and every household could still eat enough.However, meat cannot be eaten.Those who eat food in the city get a catty of meat coupons a month, but in the countryside there is no meat to eat, and the only time they can eat some meat is when they sell pigs during the Chinese New Year.

In addition to pork, chicken and duck are even more reluctant to eat.First of all, ordinary people are not willing to eat it themselves, so how can they be willing to raise too many chickens and ducks for chickens and ducks to eat?Secondly, the common people raise old hens and ducks, which are used to lay eggs, and the eggs can be sold for money, so they are even more reluctant to eat them.

There are very few people like Zhang Ercui who make a fortune silently.But Zhang Ercui was able to save so much money mainly because of Li Aizhong, a soldier. Without Li Aizhong's salary, she would not be able to make a fortune.

Moreover, Li Daniu can work, and there are few people in their family to eat.

The fire was burning, and Xiao Chengtu walked to the stove, watching Gu Xi cook, with a satisfied smile on his palm-sized face.

Gu Xi didn't know whether his cooking was delicious or not. He followed the recipes provided by 444, one program at a time, and every time the program time came, 444 would remind him.

The braised fish was put with soy sauce and wine, which Zhang Ercui was usually reluctant to put, and Gu Xi didn't hesitate to put it in.But no ginger and garlic.

"Son, do we have garlic at home?" Gu Xi asked.

"Yes, grandma will make dumplings with garlic, pork and cabbage during Chinese New Year." Xiao Chengtu drooled when he talked about the dumplings.That was the best meal I had all year long.

"Go pull up three garlic plants." Gu Xi said.

"Hey." Xiao Chengtu ran out bouncingly.

When the stewed fish came out of the pan, Gu Xi even thought it smelled delicious.A catty of grass carp can be divided into two bowls. Gu Xi put the bowl with the head of the fish into the basket: "Son, take the fish to the second uncle's house. When you come back, we can have dinner."

"Yes, Dad."

"Be careful on the road, don't fall, and walk slowly." Gu Xi urged.

"Okay, Dad."

Gu Xi ordered Xiao Chengtu to deliver the meal, but he also had his own intentions.The child is actually not at ease, as long as he has a little expression, he will be extremely nervous.So he got up early, cutting pigweed and cutting pigweed again, trying to soothe his heart by working, and also tried to tell Gu Xi by working that he was a useful child.

So let him deliver food, he will be very happy.

When Xiao Chengtu came back, Gu Xi had already brought out the custard and served him white rice.

Xiao Chengtu was six years old, and it was the first time he ate white rice.

"Wow, it's white rice." He had never eaten white rice, and he had only seen his father eat it before. "And custard."

"Dad is cooking for the first time, so I don't know if it tastes good or not. Eat and see. If it's not delicious, point it out to Dad, and then Dad can improve it." When the dishes came out of the pot, Gu Xi had already tasted the taste Alright, followed the recipe provided by 444, can't say how good it tasted, but at least it was all cooked and not burnt.

Xiao Chengtu looked at fried potatoes with sliced ​​meat, braised fish in brown sauce, and custard. He didn't know what to eat.

"Drink some soup before meals." Gu Xi said.He took a small bowl, filled the custard into it, and brought it to Xiao Chengtu.

Xiao Chengtu blew obediently, then took a sip cautiously. "It's delicious, the custard cooked by Dad is really delicious." As he said, tears fell down.

"Why are you crying?" Gu Xi was taken aback.

"I... It's my first time to drink egg custard, it's really delicious." Xiao Chengtu hurriedly wiped away his tears.

Cooking the egg custard does not require any skill, Gu Xi added a little soy sauce according to the steps, so the custard was fresher.

"Silly son, we will drink custard every day from now on." Gu Xihao said angrily.

"Our hen can lay five eggs a day." Xiao Chengtu said, "The rest can be sold for money."

Gu Xi has seen the price of goods in this era, 8 cents a catty of eggs, there are 8 to 10 eggs, Gu Xi really doesn't like the money, he might as well save it for himself.

"We don't sell money, we keep it for ourselves," Gu Xi said.

"It's going to be broken." Xiao Chengtu hurriedly said, "Grandma will take the eggs to sell for money every ten days, and grandma said that if she doesn't sell them, it will be broken."

Gu Xi really didn't understand this.

"That's it, Xiao Chengtu is really sensible, Dad knows, thank you Xiao Chengtu." Gu Xi said with a smile.

Xiao Chengtu blushed and hurried to eat.
