Chapter 009: [Is it swollen]

Pick the spinach at hand, peel the garlic cloves, get up and brush the large pot inside, put it in water, and ignite the stove. A dish is too monotonous. Make another cold spinach in the evening. Then fry an egg and chop it and stir it in. In fact, if some fried peanuts are added to the cold spinach, the taste will be even more fragrant. However, there are no stir-fried peanuts at home, and it is too late to stir-fry them. I will talk about it next time.

Peanuts are still a rare thing nowadays, and almost no one will cook them as snacks. Even in the 1980s, rural supplies were not abundant. In addition, the country is now vigorously supporting national education. Generally, if the family has a little ability, they will sell grain in a variety of places to provide children at home. Some families have more children, so it is a matter that the whole family needs to sit down to discuss. However, it cannot change one situation, that is, the son at home is mainly focused on.

Anyway, my daughter will get married sooner or later. She still has to take care of her husband and children at home after she gets married. It’s useless to read so many books.

Xu Ning's family is different. First of all, there is only such a child. Her parents love her very much. Even if she has a younger brother in the future, she should still study and study. Her mother Qin Xuejuan is not a short-sighted person. She even speaks well in English. There are a few English books in her parents' room, but Xu Ning can't even understand a word.

In Qin Xuejuan's heart, men and women are equal and have the right to enjoy education.

The water in the pot was rolling. She put the washed spinach in and stirred it with chopsticks for a while. However, she took it out and placed it in the porcelain basin prepared in advance next to it. Soaked it in cold water. After cooling, squeezed the water dry, and stir it with garlic paste. If you pour a few drops of sesame oil, the taste will definitely be better, and it will be very refreshing and refreshing.

Xu Ning can cook, after all, she has been alone for decades, but she does not have the skills of a hotel chef, otherwise she would not have to look for a job everywhere and was turned away. However, she could still satisfy the taste of her family. After watching the chefs cook for several years, they were responsible for the rice in the hotel, but they also controlled the three meals from lunch to midnight snacks. They couldn't use her breakfast, so the morning meal was made by Xu Ning in two small courtyards in his old farmhouse.

While thinking about it here, the old lady outside came back and was carrying a handful of garlic seedlings in her hand.

"Your grandma tall planted it in the yard, and our family is waiting to plant some of it this year." The old lady put the already picked garlic seedlings on the stove, and suddenly saw half a bowl of peanuts soaked in the sea bowl. The stripped peanuts were huge and full, and looked particularly gratifying.

The old lady glanced at her granddaughter and saw that she was stirring spinach in the porcelain basin next to her. She felt puzzled, where did such a big peanut come from?

The peanuts grown by our home are not that big. After all, the peanuts at home are picked by the old lady himself. How big can she not know?

"Where did you get this peanut?" she asked.

Xu Ning's heart skipped a beat, but he still said calmly: "I grabbed it from the bag. I want to make peanut porridge tonight. Grandma, are you angry?"

"Why am I angry about eating this? How can we have such a big peanut in our family?" she asked.

Xu Ning curled his lips and continued to talk nonsense: "It probably has been soaking for a long time and has expanded."

"..." The old lady didn't understand what swelling was, but she could still understand the general meaning, probably because she was swollen.

The old lady really doesn't understand whether it can be swollen. She has never done anything to add peanuts to porridge before. At best, it is to add some chopped vegetables or pumpkin, but can it be soaked so much after soaking again?

I couldn't figure it out, and the old lady didn't continue to think about it. It was getting late now. Before cooking dinner, she would cook out the pig food before talking about it, so as to save the delay in making dinner.

Seeing the green and verdant fresh garlic sprouts, Xu Ning said: "Grandma, I'm going to make pork belly stewed soybean sprouts tonight, and a plate of cold spinach, plus the pickled pickles you pickled, why not make another garlic sprout and stir-fried meat?"

The old lady was not vague and nodded and said, "If you want to eat, make it."

Although there are already three dishes and the whole family can't finish it, they can't finish it until tomorrow morning. It's less than May, and it won't break even if the stir-fry is stored in the kitchen for a day or two. You can't finish the next meal.

Xu Ning had never thought before that grandma was so easy to talk to. She thought that grandma would say how greedy she was, but who would agree as soon as she opened her mouth.

She cut the onion, ginger, garlic and pork belly here, and Yu Chunhua has boiled the bran in the pot, then added some chopped wild vegetables and poured them into the pot and stirred. Then let them cool down and you can feed the pigs.

Yu Chunhua took good care of the two pigs in the pigpen. Some people's pigpens are too dirty, but their pigpens are very clean. Yu Chunhua has to wash the pigpen almost every two days, so even if it tastes good, otherwise, such a small courtyard would really be smoky.

However, it is precisely because Yu Chunhua is so carefully fed that the pork tastes particularly delicious.

What Xu Ning was thinking about was that when the pig was slaughtered at the end of the year, he would discuss it with his grandmother and make some enemas to taste. After sliced ​​it, steam it in the pot. At that time, a layer of oil mixed with various seasonings will be left on the bottom of the plate. The enema slices were dipped in this oil that was exposed and bite the salty and sweet muscles, which would not make people feel too greasy, and it would be salivating if they thought about it.

In addition, she also likes to eat pig intestines. Whether it is stir-frying with chili or making a pot, it tastes very good. Of course, some people are not used to that taste, so it is a different matter.

As for how to deal with it, Xu Ning, who has several years of experience in washing vegetables in the hotel, is still very simple. She can’t even cut off the belly of various fish. Her past experiences in suffering have become precious survival wealth in this life.

Yu Chunhua knew that Xu Ning would cook tonight, so she washed the pot after cooking the pig food.

"You can watch it yourself." After saying that, she carried a bucket of pig food and put it next to it to cool down. Then she brought firewood into the corridor and prepared to burn the fire for Xu Ning.

Xu Ningqiao smiled and said, "I think cooking should be better than what my mother cooks. Grandma should eat more tonight."

"Who can't say good things, just don't waste food."

"I won't."

Because the firewood is burning, Xu Ning is going to take care of the pot where he cooks dishes. Grandma just needs to cook porridge in front of the stove next to it. Of course, there is also a pot fork on top of it, which is a wooden "well" shape. Be careful when placing steamed buns and corn flour pancakes in this shape, so as not to accidentally fall into the rice porridge below when steaming, and you really don't know how to eat it.
