Chapter 946: The selfish and vain female supporting role (42)
Whether it was his previous disbelief or his current belief, it did not affect Xu Yin's work and rest.
After grafting the fruit trees at home, she went to the bookstore and bought a book called "The Preparation and Use of Bio-Organic Fertilizer", which she took out and read every day.
Under the clear eyes of Xu's father and Xu's mother, they piled up ecological fertilizer.
After the pile is piled, apply base fertilizer to each fruit tree. After applying the fertilizer, start preparing for winter frost protection.
I didn’t even have much rest during the Mid-Autumn Festival. I was called by my uncle to go to their house for dinner at noon. After eating, I continued to pour frozen water, apply lime, and wrap straw mats.
We were busy until the beginning of the twelfth twelfth lunar month. All the necessary winter protection measures were in place, and the family was completely free.
Xu’s mother had previously found someone to choose an auspicious day for moving into her new home.
There are only two auspicious days in the twelfth lunar month, one is the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month and the other is the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. I thought it would be good to have more ventilation for half a month, so I decided to move back to my new home on the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.
In the past half month, they have been washed and dried, and new beddings and new quilt covers have been put in everyone's rooms.
On the morning of the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month, Xu Yin's family drove a small truck to pick up the old man at his uncle's house, and invited his father-in-law and mother-in-law to have a hot pot feast at her house.
Xu's mother smiled and said, "The fruit wine that Yinyin made earlier is ready to drink. Her father and I were originally worried that it would taste bad. We opened the jar and tasted it last night. Unexpectedly, it tasted very good. It was no worse than the wine sold in the supermarket. . You all have a taste in a while, you can’t drive after drinking, and you can sleep at our house at night.”
“Yinyin made her own fruit wine?”
"Yes! The peaches, apricots, and pears on the homestead are sour and astringent when eaten raw, but I didn't expect that the wine would taste very good."
When everyone heard this, they all became interested and expressed that they must try it.
The two elders of the Jiang family were not polite. They picked up the pairs of gift boxes and fruit baskets they had prepared in advance and happily went to their in-laws' homes as guests.
After four or five months of ventilation and odor dissipation, the new house has long been odor-free.
Xu Yin removed a number of formaldehyde-removing green plants such as spider plants and pothos, and replaced them with festive phalaenopsis, rhododendrons, and tulips. There are also two pots of white and elegant narcissus placed on the coffee table.
Older people tend to like Phalaenopsis.
Mrs. Jiang put down the things in her hands and wandered around the pots of Phalaenopsis. She also used her mobile phone with large subtitles to take several photos and videos of the Phalaenopsis and sent them to the old sisters in the community. group.
Even though she didn’t raise it, I couldn’t help but want to share this beautiful Phalaenopsis.
“Mom, you and Dad also have a pot in their room. It was given to you by Yinyin. Why bother taking photos and videos? Just bring the flowers back and show them to them.”
"Really?"
Mrs. Jiang was so happy that she didn’t care about taking pictures. She went up to the room on the second floor and took a look. Hey! There is indeed a pot of her favorite rose-red Phalaenopsis.
“Where’s Yin Yin? I have to thank her.”
The old lady went downstairs with brisk steps to find Xu Yin.
Xu’s mother came out of the kitchen with a teapot to make tea for the guests. She pointed to the front yard with a smile: “I’m baking something with Haohao.”
“Hey, can the kiln be used? What kind of things can be baked?”
"Basically, it can be roasted. For her dad's birthday last month, Yinyin roasted a duck for him. She sliced it into thin slices and rolled it with shredded onions and cucumbers. It tasted very good. The skin of the roasted duck was crispy and the meat was delicious. It’s also very tender and tastes better than braised.”
“Isn’t that the crispy roast duck from the capital?” Mrs. Jiang clapped her hands happily, “I didn’t expect Yinyin to know how to do this? She’s so capable!”
"I know." Xu's father smiled and went to the backyard to cut some juicy Chinese cabbage and pulled out a white radish as big as a stick. "She asked a friend in An City to buy a head and keep it in the grassland for a year or two. The tender lamb arrived home by courier yesterday afternoon and was marinated in a pottery vat in the backyard all night, saying it would be roasted for everyone to try today."
yesterday afternoon? Xu's mother knew. She had nothing to do yesterday afternoon and went to Mei Xiang's house next door to sew woolen slippers.
It’s getting cold, so I plan to hook up a few more pairs of woolen slippers with heels so that I can change into shoes when guests come.
Use them as home shoes in the house in winter, they are warm and comfortable.
Furthermore, the new house was paved with floor tiles, and the room still had solid wood floors that were so bright and reflective that she couldn't bear to go in wearing her outside shoes.
I was not at home yesterday afternoon. No wonder I didn’t know whether my daughter had bought mutton or a whole sheep.
“Huh? Roast a whole lamb?”
Xu Mingrui went upstairs to put away his luggage. When he came down, he heard that his niece was going to roast a whole lamb for them to eat. He looked interested and asked, "Yin Yin can you do this?"
"You underestimate your niece too much." Jiang Yanqun smiled at him and said, "Yin Yin is actually quite good at cooking. It's just that my sister-in-law is good at cooking and likes to delve into dishes, so Yin Yin doesn't have much opportunity to show off her skills at home."
“Haha! Then I want to try my niece’s cooking today.”
The sheep Xu Yin roasted was ordered from the grassland by Chen Jiao.
Chen Jiao’s seafood beer bar launched a secret roasted whole lamb in the second half of the year, which brought a lot of customer traffic to the restaurant.
No, she made a special trip to the grassland and signed a long-term supply contract with the herdsmen there. She would ship at least 50 young sheep under two years old to her every month.
Xu Yin ordered three sheep at one time, but the refrigerator at home could not accommodate the whole sheep. When she went to town to pick up the express delivery, she took two sheep and put them in the system warehouse.
She was also thinking that if the mutton this time was tender and tasty, she would ask Sister Chen to buy a few more next time to restock the system warehouse.
“It smells so good! Sister Yinyin, can you eat it?”
Hao Hao squatted beside her and watched her turn over the roasted lamb. He smelled the unique and overbearing aroma of roasted lamb and raised the tip of his nose.
"We have to wait a while." Xu Yin looked at him with a smile, "Are you hungry?"
Haohao touched his belly and nodded honestly: "Haohao is hungry. Haohao didn't have enough breakfast."
Xu Mingrui, who came out to watch his niece roast a whole lamb, heard his son's miserable complaints and couldn't help but said: "Who told you to be picky? Don't eat the wontons cooked by your mother, don't eat the steamed buns, and finally drank a glass of milk. Who is to blame for being hungry now?”
Hao Hao pouted and complained to Xu Yin: "What mom makes is what dad likes to eat, not what I like to eat."
“Then what do you want to eat?”
“I want to eat buns. Junjun ate buns in the morning. He said there was sweet jam in them! But my mother wouldn’t buy them for me.”
"Why don't I buy it for you?" Xu Mingrui raised his finger and gave his son a headache. "You didn't like to eat it if I bought it before?"
“I love to eat the buns baked by my sister.” Haohao avoided his father’s hand, “Dad, please don’t hit me on the head. Grandma said she would hit stupid people.”
Then she asked Xu Yin with her big eyes flashing: "Sister, when will you bake buns again?"
Xu Mingrui rubbed his son's head in a funny way and said to Xu Yin: "Ignore him, he is very picky. We will eat whatever you grill. By the way, you are good at barbecue, have you learned it?"
"I have a friend who runs a barbecue restaurant in Anshi. In addition to grilled seafood, he sells at least ten whole roasted sheep every week. She brought my sheep from the grassland."
“No wonder.”
Xu Mingrui automatically understood that she often went to her friend's shop and learned it from the cook there.
