Chapter 53 Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs
Under Niu Dashi's temptation, Chen Xu couldn't help picking up a piece with chopsticks and throwing it into his mouth. Unexpectedly, the mouth was crispy, tender and smooth, with a slight sourness and a natural fragrance. Just like Niu Dashi said, it was very sour and appetizing.
Seeing the two of you eating jealous yams around the stove, Yu Wuya, who was sitting at the door, couldn't help it. Smelling the smell, he felt that he was about to faint from hunger, so he slowly stood up and walked to Chen Xu according to the wound.
"Give me a taste!"
Chen Xu looked back at Yu Wuya, handed the bowl of vegetables in his hand and said, "You eat it, I'll cook the lean meat and prepare for dinner!"
However, when he cut the lean meat and put it in the jar and cooked it, then put it in the wild onions and wild garlic seedlings to eat a few more pieces of vinegar yam, he found that Yu Wuya and Niu Dashi were competing for the last few pieces.
I saw Yu Wuya pinching a pair of chopsticks and throwing them into his mouth, and holding two pieces into his mouth. Although Niu Dashi used his hands, he still couldn't grab them and was so angry that he kept screaming.
"The world is delicious, delicious!" As Yu Wuya threw the last piece of yam into his mouth, he couldn't help but exclaim while pinching the chopsticks.
Chen Xu:...
After lunch, Yu Wuya went into the room as usual to meditate and breathe.
Chen Xu and Niu Dashi then made two windows.
“When will we have supper?”
Just as Chen Xu was exhausted and sweating, he made the second window, Yu Wuya knew when he appeared behind him again, wearing black clothes, silently like a ghost. If it weren't for the bright sunshine in the daytime, Chen Xu would probably have slashed him with an axe.
"Yu Wuya, can you walk and make some movement? Is it dangerous to know?" Chen Xu put his axe speechlessly, looked up at the sun. It was probably less than three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were at least three hours before the sun set. And it was only more than two hours after lunch. Unexpectedly, this guy was hungry again.
"Silent and silent can lead to the opportunity. When you walk, you won't you notice it?" Yu Wuya frowned and said.
Chen Xu was too lazy to tell him, and he curled his lips and said that he had to drink the medicine by himself and had to wait for his family to come back for dinner.
Yu Wuya felt that it was indeed too early, so he had to turn around and take medicine, and then stop meditating, just sit on the steps in front of the door and watch the two of them make windows.
But just half an hour later, Yu Wuya appeared behind Chen Xu like a ghost.
“When will we have supper?”
Chen Xu was so scared that he almost slashed his legs with an axe and stared at Yu Wuya for half a minute.
"I...I'll go and take medicine again!" Yu Wuya turned around and left before Chen Xu could speak this time.
The so-called "repeated" cannot be repeated again and again. When Yu Wuya appeared silently behind Chen Xu again, Chen Xu couldn't help it. He sighed and threw the axe on the ground and said, "Will you die if you don't eat it? You don't have the same food bucket as you. If you eat like this, our family will starve to death!"
"Don't worry, I said I would repay you ten times. How much does a meal cost you fifty? I will pay you ten times!"
"Okay, where is the money?" Chen Xu stretched out his hand and said.
"Not yet!"
"I didn't say anything!" Chen Xu couldn't help rolling his eyes.
"Brother Xu, the time is almost over. I guess Xing'er and aunt are coming back soon. I'll go back and take a look first and call me after dinner!" Niu Dashi put down the saw and wiped his sweat.
"Okay, I'll bring Xiaochun and your mother here to have dinner together later!" Chen Xu looked at the sky. It was almost 4:30 in the afternoon.
"By the way, what do you want to eat at night? Cook fish or minced meat?"
"Vinegar and yam!" Niu Dashi and Yu Wuya said in unison.
...
"Brother, come and see, we have picked up a lot of mushrooms!"
Just as Chen Xu was making a fire to make dinner, Chen Jiangshi and Xing'er came back from the mountain with a basket on their own, and the little girl waved desperately from afar.
Seeing the two of them wearing ragged clothes, their hair was wet and wet on their faces, and their bodies were covered with thorny leaves, Chen Xu couldn't help but feel a little painful, but a surprise smile appeared on his face to greet him. Looking at the two baskets of mushrooms, I couldn't help but praise him, "Xinger is so amazing. She actually picked up so many mushrooms. Can we eat mushroom slices tonight?"
"Okay, okay, I like to eat the food cooked by my brother the most!" The little girl clapped her hands happily.
Because I found that green apricots can be used as vinegar, several more dishes can be produced at once. Therefore, after Chen Xu's busy schedule, the sun was about to set. However, as the strong fragrance continued to spread, several dishes were gradually boiled and placed on a window made in the afternoon.
The first dish: Cold-salted Folding Ear Root, this is a very common cold dish in later generations. The Folding Ear Root is everywhere in the ditches. After washing the tender white roots, swell the wild onion and garlic with hot lard, pour it on, add some salt and green apricot jam. Although there is no chili, it is still a sour and delicious side dish, which is both delicious and clears heat and relieves heat.
The second dish: vinegar yam. The steps are the same as noon, and the taste is no different. However, after Niu Dashimei Feifei's explanation, Xing'er was already saliva and stood beside Yang Xu with a vegetable bowl as an assistant. The purpose was to taste it in advance.
Seeing the little girl holding a bowl of vegetables and eating jealousy yam, Chen Xu started to cook the third dish: sweet and sour pork ribs.
The wild boar ribs that had been marinated for many days, plus honey and green apricot sauce, were placed in a clay pot and simmered for an hour in a low heat. The moment the lid was opened, a rich and sweet meaty smell spread out. Xing'er, who was trying the fifth, sixty, seventy or eight pieces of vinegar yam, suddenly put down the yam and turned to stare at the clay pot.
Yu Wuya's eyes were wide open, and his handsome face was filled with an incredible look.
Chen Jiang, who was cleaning up the mushrooms, couldn't help but look up at the clay pot in his son's hand.
This strong fragrance is filled with the extreme temptations people have for food, and instantly conquered everyone.
The ribs were scooped out by a wooden spoon and placed in a large bowl. The ribs were stewed and cooked thoroughly. The golden oil dripped down with Chen Xu's movements, and the stronger fragrance drifted with the wind.
"Wow, it smells so good, wait for me!" Under the temptation of the strong fragrance, Niu Dashi rushed over with Niu Xiaochun in his arms.
The little girl finally couldn't help it, "Brother, I want to eat!"
"Come on, I'll give you one first, be careful not to burn it!" Chen Xu loved this sister very much, hardworking, sensible and well-behaved, and just filled the huge regret that he had no brothers and sisters before, so he only had deep pampering for Xing'er.
"Gudong~"
Seeing Chen Xu put a big rib in the pottery bowl in front of the girl, Yu Wuya, who had been standing beside him, swallowed a big saliva.
