Chapter 35 What's the point of eating meat?

In the end, Zhou Jing didn't catch any fish, but picked up some small snails and shrimps. After touching a six-jin fish, Shen Mo caught two eighty-two fish.

Zhou Jing always had a question in his heart, and asked Shen Mo, "How did you catch such a big one all at once?"

Shen Mo quietly blushed, and said embarrassingly: "I don't know, I was holding my breath at that time, I just wanted to catch a fish to show him, but I didn't expect one to hit my hand, catch it and have a look I just realized how big it is!"

When the two returned home, Zhou Jing got into the kitchen and was busy. Shen Mo saw that he was brushing small snails.Regarding the small snails, Shen Mo always thought that Zhou Jing couldn't catch the fish himself, so he picked up some small snails for the sake of face.After all, small snails have little meat, and it is troublesome to eat, especially because they have a strange fishy smell.

Shen Mo said tactfully: "Brother Jing, this food is too much work to eat, you just need to make less."

Zhou Jing smiled and said, "Xiao Mo, this thing is ready, it tastes very fresh, you will know it when you eat it."

The two small fish were kept in the water by Zhou Jing, and only the big one was killed.Big fish weighing six catties are not common, and Shen Mo received a lot of envious looks along the way when he came back with it.The big fish was chopped into sections and braised in soy sauce, the small snails were stir-fried, and some high-grade white wine and ginger sections were added to remove the fishy smell.As for those small shrimps, put some more oil and stir-fry them in the same dish.

After Zhou Jing finished these three dishes, it was time for Shen Lin to close the stall and come back.

As soon as Shen Lin entered the room, he took a deep breath, washed his hands, and hurriedly sat down at the dining table.The fish on the table was actually served in pots.

Shen Lin was surprised and said, "Brother, how many catties of fish did you catch?"

Although it was unintentional, Shen Mo was a little proud.

"This fish must weigh at least six catties in my hand. It should be the biggest fish in our village this time!"

Shen Lin sighed and said: "The good days are always rushing together. I used to be so greedy that I dreamed of eating meat. At that time, I was looking forward to the day when I fished at our house to catch a big one to satisfy my hunger. In the end, I never surpassed the second." It’s a catty! By the way, today is not the day to catch fish at our house, how can we have such a big fish?”

Shen Mo told Shen Lin what happened during the day, Shen Lin nodded and said: "Uncle Lizheng has a good personality. But, brother, why did you catch a small snail? People in the village don't want to eat it, because they hate it Not to mention fishy, ​​it’s very troublesome to eat, you didn’t like it before!”

Zhou Jing was walking in at this time, holding a few small wooden sticks that had been sharpened.

"Don't look at it with the original impression, try it and you will know how different it is from what you used to eat."

Shen Lin shook his head in refusal. In the end, Shen Mo felt that Zhou Jing had worked hard for a long time, and it would not give him face not to eat, so he tasted it.

I was surprised when I didn't expect this taste.

"Brother Jing, this is a small snail, why is it not fishy at all!"

"The white wine and ginger sections I put in are all things that can remove the fishy smell."

"Well, it's delicious. Try it too, brother, it's really good."

Shen Lin tasted his doubts and gave a thumbs up.

"good to eat!"

"I plan to add this to our food stall business. I will also make potato chips and seaweed, and cook them together with the duck broth. The taste will be like duck meat. It is also a very good appetizer."

Shen Mo said: "Although this kind of meat smells like meat, it's not meat after all. Will it be difficult to sell?"

"No, the price of these two samples is low, and we sell them cheaply, that is, the price of side dishes. Potato chips are five cents a catty, and seaweed buckles are four cents a catty. We follow the path of small profits but quick turnover."

"You can try it, the cost is small, it's best to sell well, it doesn't matter if it's not good." Shen Mo said.

"Brother, why are you so good at your craft? There are always some crafts that the villagers don't know. The food you make is something that no one in the village has ever seen. Even if you bring it to the town, it is a novel food!"

Shen Lin's words were unintentional, and it sounded intentional. Shen Mo quickly raised his head to look at Shen Lin, and saw that Shen Lin was eating happily, eating a small snail and a fish. He was so busy that he wished he had two more mouths. A Zhou scene full of loopholes emerged.

Zhou Jing, a native farmer, even if he was honed by life and had to learn to cook, then why did he know so many crafts that many old people in the village do not know? Not only can he cook, but he can also sell them in the town for money.

However, Shen Lin's heart is thick, and many things have been said, but he can't think so deeply.

Zhou Jing under the table secretly held Shen Mo's hand and shook his head slightly at him.It was just an unconscious comfort, but recently Shen Mo listened to Zhou Jing's words and insisted on making a mask and applying hand cream. The skin on his hands has recovered, not to mention delicate, and even smoother than before.After touching it twice, Zhou Jing became addicted, and even kept twisting the back of Shen Mo's hand.

Shen Mo shook it twice but did not shake it off, a little annoyed that Zhou Jing would always be in heat regardless of time and place.With Shen Lin unable to speak clearly, he could only say dryly: "Eat meat!"

"Yes, eat meat!" Zhou Jing said with deep meaning: "I just love meat!"

Shen Mo: "..."

Shen Lin bit the tip of his tongue, it really hurt!

If he doesn't say anything, it's just as if he doesn't understand anything! That Zhou Jing's anxious tone and seductive expression should stop being so obvious, okay?

As soon as Zhou Jing's dining table was taken away, someone knocked on the door, it was Wang Ren.He was carrying two silver carp weighing two catties in his hand, as if offering a treasure to Shen Lin.

"I caught this one in Shenjia Village. These two are the biggest, and I kept them for you!"

Shen Lin refused to accept it, and said: "These two fish are quite fat, you should keep them at home to eat. My elder brother caught a six-jin fish, and my brother-in-law cooked it in soy sauce. I guess it will take a few days to eat!"

"Six catties!" Wang Ren's eyes dimmed excitedly, like a child showing off his failure. "That's enough to eat for a few days, I'm still young."

Shen Lin thought for a while, and said: "However, my brother-in-law caught small snails and stir-fried them. It's very delicious. You probably haven't eaten that kind of method. I'll wrap some for you. You can go back and try it. We will serve it at the stall tomorrow." I will take it out and sell it, and I can buy it if I like it.”

"Ah?" Wang Ren uttered a scale unconsciously in a daze, and Shen Lin had already gone back to the house to wrap the conch for him.

Wang Ren, who got the conch, looked complicated. What's going on?He originally gave fish to someone to please Shuang'er, but in the end the fish didn't come through and Bao Xiaoluo got it instead.It's just a pity that the purpose of the person who gave him the small conch was to let him buy a small conch, and I don't know if he understands his intentions.

As soon as Wang Ren entered the yard, Hao Yulan saw the two big fish she had been looking for for a long time.

"I said why the two biggest fish in the house are gone, so I thought I remembered it wrong, so I told you to take it to please your sweetheart." Hao Yulan is Wang Fulu's mother-in-law, Wang Ren's mother-in-law, an ordinary one peasant woman.

Hao Yulan covered her mouth and smiled with a sense of watching the excitement: "Master, come and see, your son took the two biggest fish to please his sweetheart and failed, and was driven back in despair!"

Wang Ren blushed when he was told, he was embarrassed. "I didn't." He said and threw the two fish back into the water basin, as if the fish suddenly became hot.

Wang Fulu was worried about his youngest son's marriage. His youngest son was a very determined person, and he couldn't be his master.To the girls who mentioned a few other people, either this is bad or that is not good, they were all rejected by Wang Ren, so Wang Fulu was really worried.

Hearing his wife's words, his first reaction in his heart was that his son was enlightened. As for his wife's teasing, neither of the old couple actually took it to heart, they were just playing with Wang Ren.

They thought that Wang Ren was in good condition, energetic and tall.I'm not boasting in the village, I'm definitely counting on the number, I don't boast that I'm definitely the ideal husband of many girls.And because Wang Fulu is upright and his family is well-off, his family is even higher than others.Because of these, I feel that it is okay if Wang Ren's sweetheart disagrees. After all, people in the village mainly look for a man's character and family background.

Wang Fulu also cooked fish at home, and Wang Ren made a side dish of the package of small snails and added it to the dinner table.

Farmers' understanding of small snails is that they have little meat, are very fishy, ​​and are troublesome to eat. No one who is not a poor family is willing to bother to eat this thing.

Wang Fulu and Hao Yulan thought that Wang Ren's sweetheart was from a poor family.But even if she was so poor, she still didn't want to accept the two fat fish Wang Ren sent, which shows that this girl's character is not one to take advantage of small things.Thinking of it this way, I actually have a lot of affection for this daughter-in-law.

Wang Fulu even pointed to the finished stewed fish and said: "Don't eat it yet, set aside two and ask the boy to send it to the girl's house. The girl's skin is too thin and I am sorry to accept your food. If you don't give it away, you should give it to me." You still have to give it away, the big deal is to change the method, if you don’t want to be familiar with it. To marry a daughter-in-law, you have to be brave, or the girl will be embarrassed if you are a man and you are short-faced, this daughter-in-law will become someone else’s!"

"You don't need to keep it." Wang Ren stopped Hao Yulan from getting up, and said, "He really doesn't need it. His family caught a six-pound fish today, and he doesn't know how long it will take to eat it. Of course I don't want to take this fish." gone."

Wang Fulu subconsciously repeated: "A big fish weighing six catties? His parents and brothers are quite capable..." Suddenly, Wang Fulu suddenly realized that there seemed to be only one family in the village that caught a fish weighing six catties, and that was the Zhou family.And the Zhou family has only one twin who has not left the court——Shen Lin!

Hao Yulan obviously thought of this too, and immediately became nervous, sweeping away the relaxed atmosphere of talking about her son's sweetheart before.

She tentatively asked: "Son, Shen Lin gave you this little conch, and you will also give him the two fish today."

Wang Ren also stopped chopsticks, he knew that his parents didn't like Shuang'er.In the eyes of peasants or people who grew up in this dynasty, Shuang'er is almost equivalent to not being able to have a son.And not being able to have a son will cut off the family's incense, which is a big deal for them, no less than food, clothing, housing and transportation.

It was also because of this reason that Wang Ren hadn't told his parents about the fact that his sweetheart was Shen Lin these years, intentionally or unintentionally procrastinating for a day.But since it is about this matter today, Wang Ren can no longer dodge.

Fortunately, the showdown said: "Yes, I want to marry Shen Lin!"

"No!" Hao Yulan's reaction was as big as she imagined, "You don't want a brat! You don't want your own incense!"

"Mother, it's not that Shuang'er can't have children, it's just that it's not easy to conceive. You see, Wang Baichuan is a man, but he is a Shuang'er."

"Don't mention Shen Wen, all the twins who married into our village, Shen Wen gave birth to a man, and if they only have one, they can't have any more!"

"One is enough!" Wang Ren said.

"That must be a boy!" Hao Yulan said: "Anyway, Shen Lin can't do it, neither can any twins. You are my son, I can't tell you to cut off your incense!"
