Chapter 268 I want to eat fish heads and drink fish brains
The next day, on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Wu Yuan woke up very early.
Wu Yuan lost sleep at the thought of five or six more nephews and nieces in the family.
My daughter-in-law, Yang Luoyan, got up early, and she wasn't even in the house with her two children.
Wu Yuan got up and went out to have a look. Six children including Lin Miaomiao, plus two of his own family, were sitting in a row in front of the dining table.
Wu Yuan had nowhere to sit.
Even so, Wu Yuan is still very satisfied.
The children are very well-behaved. As an uncle, what is there to be dissatisfied with?
Until Yang Luoyan asked him: "What do you think you have for lunch?" As a result, several children rushed to say: "I want to eat fish heads and drink fish brains!"
"I want to eat lamb!"
"If I want beef, pork, braised pork..."
Wu Yuan's face darkened: "You think my place is a restaurant? Do you still order there?"
Immediately said to Yang Luoyan: "It's easy to handle. I'll kill a fish and make a fish head hot pot. Prepare mutton, beef, tofu, cabbage, and potatoes. You can eat as you like."
The weather is so cold, it is most suitable to have a hot pot.
It is short of a hot pot that can burn charcoal.
This thing is not hard to find.
After breakfast, Wu Yuan called Ma Mingchao and drove to the county. After a while, he bought the old BJ's charcoal hot pot, and at the same time bought a large bag of charcoal, which would be enough for years to come.
When I got home, I washed the hot pot carefully and let it dry, and then I took the black fish out of the tank and prepared it for slaughter.
The snow outside has melted a lot, and the temperature has picked up compared to the previous few days.
But still much colder than inside the house.
Even so, the children still dressed neatly, squatting obediently beside him, watching him handle the slaughtering of fish and prepare the hot pot with meat.
Not long after, a large table of ingredients was ready.
Not to mention that the country kids had never seen this battle, even Yang Luoyan and Lin Miaomiao found it new.
In this way, there is no need to burn the dishes.
Fresh and eat immediately, saving a lot of effort.
It was noon in a blink of an eye, and under the hope of several children, Wu Yuan finally put the hot pot on the table. The charcoal inside had already been burned, and there was a ring of fish heads and fish meat on the bottom of the pot, making a gurgling sound.
Around the hot pot, there are circles and circles of ingredients.
Not to mention beef and mutton slices, tofu, cabbage and potatoes are all ready-made at home, so you can eat whatever you want.
There is no duck blood, but Wu Yuan has prepared sliced pig blood.
In addition to vermicelli, radish and bean sprouts, which are necessary in the countryside, it can be regarded as a rich variety.
Although the soul ingredients such as hot pot meatballs and seafood are missing, the children don’t know that their eyes are already shining when they look at this table of ingredients.
Wu Yuan picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish meat and said, "Eat, eat, be careful!"
With an order, seven or eight pairs of chopsticks immediately plunged into the hot pot.
Among them, Zhong Wenqiang was the fastest, and went straight to eat fish heads and drink fish brains.
Wu Yuan looked angrily and said: "You let the fish head cook more, no one will **** it from you!"
Zhong Wenqiang reluctantly put down the fish head, and then switched to mutton slices to open the boil.
The children no longer have time to talk, they just concentrate on eating hard.
Only Yang Luoyan and Lin Miaomiao occasionally extended their chopsticks, looked at each other and said, "Not bad, it smells really good."
Just looking at the children gobbling it up, Yang Luoyan couldn't help worrying: "Is there enough food for so many dishes?"
However, at the end of the meal, before the noodles were served, one or two of them were full, holding their stomachs.
After all, this hot pot has both fish and meat. The oil and water are placed here, which is much better than rice and steamed buns.
After lunch, the children all leaned on the sofa, lined up, taking a nap while basking in the sun.
As a result, after a while, someone came to the house.
is Fan Weimin's family of three.
As soon as Fan Weimin entered the room, he smelled the residual hot pot smell. He followed the smell to find it, and immediately praised: "Old BJ hot pot, Boss Wu is really a wonderful person who knows how to enjoy it."
Wu Yuan pointed to a group of children, and said helplessly: "It's hard to talk to everyone, only this hot pot can send them away."
Fan Weimin naturally did not come empty-handed.
The gifts he brought were not the usual tobacco and alcohol, but some delicious ingredients secreted by himself.
Two roast ducks, two braised geese, ten catties of braised pork knuckle.
Wu Yuan couldn't even refuse.
When Wu Yuan accepted it, he also expressed his feelings: "Old Fan, with your skills, you are absolutely inferior to being a chef for a furniture factory. If one day in the future, your chef Fan is going to come out again, I will definitely Support with both hands."
Fan Weimin was flattered, waved his hands again and again and said: "No, Boss Wu. I am already very satisfied that Panpan Furniture Factory can let my wife and I help out, and I will never do what he wants."
Wu Yuan didn't say any more.
However, people change. Now Fan Weimin is a little frightened and dare not go back to his old business.
Wait another two years, maybe.
Not long after sending off Fan Weimin's family of three, the eldest sister Wu Shuhua brought her eldest brother-in-law Lin Xianxue.
Lin Miaomiao immediately looked vigilant: "Old uncle, the visitor is not kind!"
Wu Yuan scolded with a smile: "How can anyone say that about your parents?"
But Wu Yuan said so, but he couldn't help muttering in his heart.
Because the elder sister and his wife didn't have any empty hands this time, they carried more things than ever before.
This is very strange.
After letting the elder sister and his wife sit down on the sofa in the living room, Lin Miaomiao took a peek at the gifts in his pocket, ran over and whispered in Wu Yuan's ear, "Old man, Baojun and I bought them all. "
Since this is the case, Wu Yuan has a bottom line in his heart.
Even so, he still asked: "Big brother-in-law, big sister, how can you give me a gift? Is there something wrong? If you have something, just say it."
Lin Xianxue said with a relaxed face: "No, no, uncle, don't worry too much."
The big brother-in-law said so, it seems that this is gone.
So Wu Yuan calmly asked the two to come down for dinner, saying that he wanted to have a drink with his eldest brother-in-law.
Lin Xianxue listened to drinking, Moutai, and he was moved at that time.
I was afraid that Wu Shuhua would not want to stay.
Unexpectedly, Wu Shuhua agreed without hesitation.
Wu Yuan recalled that this was the original appearance of the elder sister, and she did not miss the slightest opportunity to take advantage.
Not long after, the third sister and her husband also came, bringing over a bag of rice and a bag of noodles.
Originally said that they were going to take the two children back, but when they saw that the eldest sister and her husband were both there, they stayed calmly.
With the help of the third sister, Yang Luoyan prepared dinner much faster.
The high-stove pot in the stove room and the gas stove in the kitchen worked together, and quickly prepared four cold dishes and six hot dishes.
On the other side, Lin Miaomiao took the opportunity of helping the cook, and asked her elder sister Wu Shuhua indirectly for a long time.
Finally, she told Wu Yuandao with a look of disappointment: "Uncle, my mother has not changed her gender. She came here because she saw you in the newspaper and felt that she had to curry favor with you."
