Daya took out a wooden basin from the mule cart. Wei Xiaoman carefully inspected the remaining two rabbits with intact skeletons to ensure that the fur was clean and that no internal organs remained. He then carefully washed the nostrils, tongues and other places with water several times, and then put them away.

Go into the wooden basin and roll up your sleeves with both hands.

The first step is to rub salt on the rabbit, mixed with ginger slices and green onions, and rub it hard on every inch of the skin inside and outside.

The green onions may be a little wilted because they have been stored for a long time, but it doesn't matter, as long as they are edible.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead with his elbow, Wei Xiaoman stood up and shook his hands.

"It needs to be marinated for two quarters of an hour. During this time, you can make the wild vegetable soup first."

Seeing that others were still staring at the rabbit meat on the plates and basins, including Wen Yu, Wei Xiaoman felt that they could not be left idle, so she simply stopped doing the vegetable soup and only gave instructions.

Seeing that there was not much help here, Mrs. Duan had already taken her second son Xu Fengnian to clean up the place where she would sleep at night, so there were only a group of children left here.

"Da Ya, go and get the wild vegetables you picked in the afternoon and wash them."

"Erya, don't hide, you also have a share, go and set up two shelves for roasting rabbit later."

"Nuanbao, Dongbao, you two go bring more firewood. There is not much firewood left. Remember to remind the family to pick up more firewood tomorrow."

"Xiaobao (Xu Henian), help eldest sister pick and wash wild vegetables."

"As for Girl Yu -" Wei Xiaoman looked at the remaining work and Wen Yu, who looked expectant, "you can help deliver the firewood later and don't let the fire go out."

After making arrangements, everyone received their tasks and followed Wei Xiaoman's arrangements.

Wen Yu also found this very new. She knew a little about alchemy, but she had never tried cooking before.

However, my grandma said that cooking is similar to making an elixir. You need to prepare the raw materials and then put them into the cauldron in order. At the same time, pay attention to controlling the heat. When the various ingredients are completely combined, you can quickly control the elixir.

The only thing strange is that my father never allowed him to eat the food cooked by his mother-in-law, and he always used various reasons to keep her away from the kitchen.

Isn’t it easy to cook?

Wen Yu was gearing up and eager to try, waiting for Daya to bring the wild vegetables.

Because it has entered summer and we are in the north, the wild vegetables picked these days are mainly purslane. This kind of wild vegetables has many names, grasshopper, longevity vegetable, five-square grass...the taste is a little sour.

, it can clear away heat, eliminate edema, remove ulcers, and is also a medicinal herb.

Xiaobao and Daya each took one. They had washed it back from the river and put it on the board. Daya picked up the kitchen knife and cut it open with a few clicks.

Wei Xiaoman had already filled the iron pot with water, taking advantage of the rabbit soup that had just remained on the surface of the pot for flavor.

Da Ya threw the simply cut purslane into the pot and handed the salt shaker to Wei Xiaoman. Da Ya rarely used the spoon and couldn't put the right amount of salt, so she had to ask her mother-in-law to do it.

Wen Yu looked carefully at the pit under the iron pot, holding two or three pieces of firewood in his hand, ready to replenish it at any time.

This fire pit is made by first digging a hole in the ground, then setting up a shelf on the hole and placing the iron pot, which is convenient and simple.

This method of burying a stove, also known as a marching stove, is the most commonly used method of making fire for cooking in the army. Due to frequent wars, even ordinary people have mastered this method.

The fire light was sparse and the intensity of the fire weakened. Wen Yu's eyes lit up. Just as he was about to pass the firewood in his hand, he heard Wei Xiaoman's loud voice.

"Okay, take it down."

Is this good?

Oh - the water is boiling!

Wei Xiaoman held the handle of the iron pot with both hands, took down half the pot of wild vegetable soup, and set it aside to dry. Then he picked up a few pieces of firewood and threw them into the earthen stove. When he turned around, he met Wen Yu's slightly surprised eyes.

Wen Yu: Tianchai, mine!

Wei Xiaoman didn't think of any reason at the moment, so he didn't care.

As children, ideas always jump very quickly!

Nuanbao and Dongbao had just finished making the shelves. Wei Xiaoman pressed them and it was quite strong and could be hung.

Guessing that the time was about the same, Wei Xiaoman picked up two marinated rabbits from the wooden basin, passed two sticks through them, hung them on the shelf, and rubbed pepper on the rabbits while turning them over.

She heard that it would be best if there were chili peppers, but unfortunately, the landlord didn't bring any chili peppers, so he only found a handful of peppers, which she could borrow some flavor from.

I don’t know where Wei Xiaoman learned the barbecue techniques. He is very skilled in turning, rolling, beating, shaking, sliding and brushing, unlike a novice.

After a while, a completely different aroma from the fried mutton spread.

The sun has set, the moon is high in the sky, the leaves are rustling, and a cool wind blows by, accompanied by the aroma of roasted rabbit, and the oil sizzles out.

Everyone who was cooking or eating was far away from the Xu family.

Everyone: No, I can't control my eyes and mouth.

If I had known they had changed some seasonings, I thought it was too expensive and not worth it, but I didn't expect it to taste so good.

Cui Xing thought this way. Although his family also made rabbit meat and pheasant meat, compared to Xu's family, it tasted bland and tasteless.

It's okay, smelling Xu's meat and taking a bite of home-made rabbit meat is equivalent to eating rabbit meat made with seasonings.

Yes, that’s it!

A pair of hands holding the barbecue grill rotated slightly, and a few drops of oil were about to fall. Wei Xiaoman quickly brushed it onto the rabbit with quick eyes and hands, so the aroma became stronger. Combined with pepper and rabbit meat, it formed an extremely powerful and overbearing smell that occupied all human senses.

.

The soft and chewy rabbit meat has a golden skin, and the seasoning is evenly applied with clear particles. When you bite into it, the sizzling oily aroma will pop out and fill your mouth, creating another delicious storm.

If you bite gently with your teeth, the crispy meat will make a snapping sound, oil and water will flow down the corners of your mouth, and the aroma of barbecue will penetrate your nose.

You can only taste the strong flavor of seasoning in the first bite, but after the second bite, you can taste the warm and tender rabbit meat. You swallow it down your throat and can't wait to taste the next bite.

cough!

Ahem!

Wen Yu choked on her own saliva and realized that she was so greedy. It was obvious that she had never eaten delicacies on a jade plate in the world of cultivation.

How could I, the dignified Jindan Master, be attracted to this kind of snack!

At most... I just want to taste something.

Turning his head slightly, he saw a few drops of unknown liquid flowing out of the corner of the mouth of the usually calm and restrained eldest sister next to him. Then he swallowed hard and looked straight at the golden rabbit meat.

Wen Yu curled up the corners of his mouth, and his eyebrows curved into crescent moons.

It seems that there is no shame in it. I am a mortal now, so it is normal for me to get hungry easily!

The waiting time is unbearable, especially when you have delicious meat in front of you.

(Wen·I am just a mortal now·Yu once said.)

By the time Duan and Xu Fengnian had tidied up the place for everyone to sleep at night, Xu Guman and his wife Cui had also finished taking a bath and washed their old clothes, Xu Lao Er and Xu Lao Er arrived belatedly after completing their patrol.

.

To show fairness, today's patrol started from Xu's house, that's why it was so late.

After the brothers washed their hands and sat down at the prepared wooden table, Mrs. Duan also helped Mrs. Xu over.

Now that everyone is here, it’s finally time to start!

On Wen Yu's left is Daya, and on the right is Wei Xiaoman. They are holding wooden chopsticks that were just whittled today, and their eyes are fixed on the fried rabbit meat on the table.

No one planned to talk before the meal. The moment they picked up the chopsticks, a war about food started!

Swords and swords flashed, smoke was everywhere, eyes were dazzled, cups and plates were in a mess.
Chapter completed!
