Little wealth

The sun was setting on the hills in the west, and the chimneys of every household in the small village were emitting white smoke.

"Chop chop chop—"

The sound of cutting vegetables came from the kitchen, the kitchen knife fell on the cutting board, making a crisp chopping sound, and the young man standing by the window was cutting the vegetables with his head bowed.

There is half a yard in the middle, and the men working on the wooden house only need to raise their heads to see the busy Fu Lang opposite.From his gaze, he could just see Fu Lang working seriously with his head down, his high nose bridge and his pursed lips.

"Brother, I..." Zhao Hu took a board, and saw that his brother had stopped what he was doing, raised his head to look outside, followed his brother's line of sight, and the words behind him disappeared In his throat, he realized that his brother was peeping at him.

He just said, his brother looks so good-looking, how could his brother not like it!

Hearing the voice calling him, the man who was peeking at Fu Lang was a little flustered, but he looked back pretending to be calm on the surface, and looked at the brother who came in with an expressionless face.

Meeting his brother's gaze, Zhao Erhu understood, and gave his brother a look of "you keep watching, and I won't bother you anymore".But after a while, he couldn't help but bumped his brother's shoulder with his shoulder, and winked at his brother.

"...Do your job." Zhao He gave a warning look, then lowered his head and continued to work.

Zhao Hu let out a groan, with a look of grievance on his face. It was obvious that the eldest brother was peeping at his brother for not working, so why did it turn into reprimanding him?

The man working in the wooden house looked up and saw the shaking figure. For some reason, as long as he saw that person, his heart would feel extremely peaceful and safe.Glancing at his son who was playing outside the yard, the man lowered his head and continued with his work.

**

At this time, Josh didn't know that the man on the opposite side had peeked at him and was preparing their family's dinner.

He went to sell vegetables at the entrance of the village early this morning, and now he has calculated the time correctly. The old man who sells tofu will come to his village to sell tofu every three days, and he will go to other villages to sell tofu on other days.It happened that today was the day when the old man came to their village to sell tofu. He took his son to eat a bowl of hot tofu flower early in the morning, and bought tofu and some other vegetables back.

After eating braised tofu at home a few times, he no longer plans to make braised tofu with the tofu he bought today, but plans to make Yong Tau Foo.

After cutting things, he turned around and took a large bowl, put the minced meat and shiitake mushrooms into the bowl, poured half a bowl of minced garlic, cracked an egg into it, put half a spoonful of soy sauce, an appropriate amount of Salt, half a spoonful of white wine, stir evenly with chopsticks, marinate for a while to taste.

Take out a basket from the bottom, pick up the green vegetables that have been soaked for a while, weigh the water in your hands, and put them into the basket.

Take out the sixties that have been fed in the wooden barrel for a morning, pour them into clean water and wash them again, and check that all the sixties are still alive.This morning he went to the entrance of the village to buy vegetables, and it was the first time he saw someone selling sixties, so he bought half a basket and came back, which weighed more than a catty.

He hasn't eaten this food for a long time. If it wasn't for the sale today, he would almost forget the taste of this food.

"This thing doesn't have a lot of meat. Why did you buy a basket of this thing?" Zhao Amu looked at the half-basket of sixties, and felt that her daughter-in-law was cheated when she went out to buy vegetables.

Josh chuckled and said, "You'll know when it's fried. I guarantee that you'll want to eat it once you eat it." This thing has no meat except the shell, but what you eat is that taste, whether it's Soup or stir-fry, the taste is very good.

He used to like to eat sixty-year-old vermicelli, topped with a spoonful of chili oil, and he still misses the taste even now.But today there are no vermicelli and no peppers, so sixty-year-old vermicelli can’t be made, so it’s not bad to fry and eat?

Zhao Amu was a little skeptical about this, and asked, "Do you want to cook? I lit the fire in the stove."

"It's ok...oh, no, wait, this tofu isn't ready yet, wait until I stuff the meat stuffing in." Josh remembered that his tofu wasn't ready, so he found a small spoon and put it in A small hole is dug on the top of each piece of tofu, and the marinated meat stuffing is stuffed into it.

The hand stuffing the meat should be light, otherwise the tofu will be easily broken.

"Why is this tofu so troublesome for you? It's just too much work for you to make these things." Zhao Amu didn't know how to stuff such soft tofu with meat stuffing. He felt that it was too troublesome to fill in the hole, and it would have been cooked long ago if he had to cook it in one pot.

"Haha, don't be afraid of hard work, as long as you and Niannian like to eat, that's the most important thing." Josh laughed.His greatest joy every day now is to spend some time cooking some fresh food and various dishes for everyone to eat. As long as he sees his family eating happily, he is very satisfied.

Don't people live for three meals a day?Otherwise, what is the purpose of being busy all my life.He didn't understand this truth before, but after reliving his life, he took a lot of things lightly. Instead, he felt that the happiness of the children and the family was the most important thing.

If spending a little time can make the whole family happy, why not?

"How about I come to help too?"

"No, no, I'm almost fine."

But this Aunt Zhao had to admit that although the dishes made by this daughter-in-law were laborious and expensive, they were much more delicious than his cooking.During this period of time, he was eating with his son and daughter-in-law, and when he put on clothes, he found that his body had grown flesh.

"Well, it's ok, Amu, please light the fire, I'll fry this tofu first." Josh's hands were not slow, and he stuffed the meat stuffing into the tofu in the blink of an eye, but There is a bit too much minced meat prepared today.

Of course, you don’t have to worry about wasting too much meat. You can make pancakes later. Meat pancakes are better than shallot pancakes, right?

"Looks like we should make pancakes first." Josh thought that pancakes cost oil, so he could fry pancakes first and then fry tofu, so there would be less waste of oil.

Zhao Amu has a face that you can do whatever you want, he is just in charge of watching the fire, he can do whatever you want.

The firewood in the stove was lit, and the pot became hot after a while. Josh tested the heat with the palm of his hand, and the temperature was acceptable.I scooped a little lard in with a shovel, and the put lard melted quickly.

Pick up a spoon, scoop half a spoonful of batter into it, and mix it with a spoon. The batter should not be too thick, but as thin as possible. The batter will be formed in a pan. Turn the fried side over and fry the other side.Spoon a spoonful of meat sauce into the middle, wait until it is slightly cooked and change color, then put in two small half-root cucumber strips, cover the two sides to the middle with a shovel, turn it over, a fried pancake will come out, and continue Fry the second one.

The kitchen was cooking, and the scent wafted outside along the window and door.Zhao Hu, who was working in the wooden house, stopped his hands and moved his nose. As soon as he smelled the aroma, he knew that his brother was cooking and he would be ready to eat soon.

The little baby who was playing outside smelled the scent, threw the small wooden sword in his hand into the small wooden cart, turned around, and ran into the kitchen with short legs, "Mum!"

"Oh, my grandson is here, you can smell it, right? Hehe, the puppy has a good nose." Zhao Amu is in charge of burning firewood, after setting the fire for so long, he knows when it will grow Fire, this fire is well controlled.They can smell the aroma when they cook and set fire in it, and the grandson who is difficult to play outside must have smelled the aroma and ran in.

"Ah Mo." The little baby threw herself into Ah Mo's arms, looked up at the pot with her head up, her little mouth opened slightly, and her saliva was about to flow out.

"Go out and play for a while, it's very hot here, don't come here." Josh was sweating all over while cooking, seeing that this little boy was not afraid of the heat at all, he dared to come to the stove Warm up?

Seeing the child looking up at him, although he didn't speak, everything he was thinking was written on his face.

"..." Sighing in his heart, Josh had to tear out a small piece from the fried pancake, blew on it before stuffing it into his son's mouth, and said: "Okay, go out and play, Don't come in."

"Yeah!" With something in her mouth, Xiao Wa'er narrowed her eyes with a smile, crawled out of Ah Mo's arms, and ran away in a panic.

Seeing his son take the dog to play, Josh smiled and shook his head. This kid came here every day to ask for a bite... well, he got used to it.

It's just that every time he sees the child's pitiful appearance, he can't help stuffing a bite into the child's mouth. Over time, the child is like a puppy. He has the habit of running to the kitchen every day when he smells the smell. You have to have something to eat before you are willing to go out.

The fried pancakes were stacked high, and the meat filling was gone after frying. It was just a thin layer of pancakes with a little salt and green onions sprinkled in the middle.Anyway, with the food capacity of the two big rice buckets in their family, even if they just add some chopped green onions, they can feed ten or eight people.

After frying the pancakes, I added a little more lard to the pan, and put the tofu in one by one, neatly arranged.

Fry one side until it is lightly browned, and then fry the other side, being careful not to get out the meat stuffing inside, and turn it back after frying this side.

Pour in the adjusted sauce, cover the lid, simmer for about 2 minutes, lift the lid, and take out the Yong Tau Foo inside one by one, be careful not to rot, and get all the Yong Tau Foo out Afterwards, pour in the last bit of sauce left in the pan and sprinkle with a handful of chopped scallions.

In the end, there is only one fried flower armor and one green vegetable left.

"Fuck-"

Pour the cleaned sixtieth into the pot, once the oil meets the water, the oil and water in the pot will jump everywhere, Josh backed away for a while, and only after the oil and water in the pot stopped jumping, Josh dared to use it Use a shovel to turn over the vegetables in the pot.
