Chapter 41: The Unforgettable Dinner
In a blink of an eye, five or six days passed. Xu Jingsi's initial plan was to enter the canteen of the machinery factory. On Sunday, the machinery factory was resting. Wang Guizhi and Pei Daming agreed to ask him to call Xiao Ming and Lin Dalei, a fellow villager who worked in the canteen, to go to her house to treat her to dinner.
Unexpectedly, He Runxiang came with Wang Guizhi in the afternoon!
He Runxiang was wearing a long-sleeved top with butterflies printed on the beige shirt. The hem of the shirt was tied into black trousers. It was simple and neat. She carried a small black bag and carried a bag. She stood at the door and smiled, "Xu Jing, I don't have time to come. The pig's trotters I gave to Lu Xiangzhai are so delicious!"
He Runxiang is really a particular person!
"I wish you could come, so what if I had empty hands?" Xu Jingsi smiled and took the plastic bag from He Runxiang's hand and smelled it, "It smells so good!"
"Their house is the best." He Runxiang pointed to the little rooster on her head and said, "I'm going to visit your room!"
"Please come in quickly!" Xu Jingsi took her arm and welcomed her intimately.
"Hey, really, it's so spacious. Xu Jing, your furniture is so nice, it's all the time to look at it, and the style is pretty and generous," He Runxiang praised, "No wonder Sister Pei is so envious!"
"Your family Yu Sen earns a lot of money. You can save some money. After two or three years, you can buy a yard directly. It's no better than renting such a house!"
"He, most of the money he earns every month is spent drinking," He Runxiang did not complain. She rolled up her sleeves and was eager to try, "What will I do for you?"
"Hey, put on the apron first," Xu Jingsi did not refuse, but instead reminded, "It's hard to wash your clothes if you put them oiled."
"Come on, help me soak the rice dumpling leaves first," Wang Guizhi said bluntly outside.
In order to facilitate soaking rice dumpling leaves and rice dumplings, Xu Jingsi bought a few white porcelain iron buckets and placed them on the shelf. It is both clean and easy to use, and saves the rush to move the pot!
He Runxiang was either here to work or join in the fun. By the way, she chatted with them. Wang Guizhi asked her about Teacher Xiaoming for a while, and asked for a long time and sighed for a long time. It turned out that Xiaoming's grades were quite average.
While busy and gossiping, it was almost evening.
Xu Jingsi chopped the rooster she bought and planned to make a pepper-stewed chicken. She bought a grass carp, a pickled fish, and the pig's trotters that He Runxiang brought. She cut a piece of cooked meat and dipped it in garlic. She also bought soft spring cakes, green onions, fried sweet noodles sauce and dried fish. These were already five dishes. Then she gathered three vegetables and cooked eight. She could invite Chef Lin to a full meal!
The staple food is duck egg noodles rolled by Wang Guizhi.
After stewing the chicken for a long time, Xu Jingsi started to make fried chicken first.
Add slices of ginger to the pot and boil water. Put the chicken pieces in. First blanch them for two minutes. Take out the chicken, pour out the water in the pot, clean them, heat them up, add oil, add ginger, scallion slices, and a large handful of peppers to make the aroma. Throw a few dried chili peppers, add the chicken pieces and stir-fry them, add sweet noodles sauce, stir-fry them vigorously. Seeing that the meat was a little tight, she added boiling water and stewed.
"It smells so good!" He Runxiang walked over and said, "Ah, you have put so many peppercorns!"
"Actually, half of the peppercorns and half of them are delicious." Xu Jingsi wiped her hands and covered the lid. However, in this era, if she wants to eat peppercorns, she will have a peppercorn tree!
"This is the first time I've seen so many peppercorns."
"You will know if it's delicious if it's delicious!"
"How could you make so many delicious foods?"
Xu Jingsi laughed when she heard this question, "Because I love to eat, I can eat it!"
"Mom!" Xiao Ming's shout suddenly came from the big yard.
Wang Guizhi hurriedly went out, "Why did you come so early? Have you finished your homework?"
"I'm done." Xiao Ming stood outside but didn't come out, but looked at the house opposite the convenient aisle of Xu Jingsi's house and asked, "Mom, there are rabbits over there!"
When Xu Jingsi heard this, she walked out and smiled, "You go and take a look. Brother He has raised their children for a new one!"
"Your dad and your Uncle Lin!" Wang Guizhi asked from behind.
"It's in the back, I'll come in a while!"
Wang Guizhi brought Xiao Ming here two days ago, so he recognized the way.
"Xu Jing, I'll put the table outside." Wang Guizhi asked when it was getting late.
"It's cold outside, and you can sit in the room."
"It's so cold this day. Just eat outside to save them from smoking and drinking, and the house is smoky!"
"Okay, then put it outside. If the food is cold, it will be hotter."
Fortunately, Xu Jingsi asked the workers to grind the piece under the window with the remaining cement, which was quite clean.
Wang Guizhi moved the table over, He Runxiang put on a small stool, and Xiao Ming also helped to put the chopsticks on the small plate when he saw that the rabbit was back.
In order to treat this time, Xu Jingsi specially bought plates, plates and chopsticks!
If you want to ask, please be serious!
"This is too much like that!" He Runxiang said when she saw the neatly arranged plates, chopsticks and spoons, "It's more particular than a restaurant."
"Teacher He, please go to my house and bring the wine, it's on the table!" Xu Jingsi said.
"No need, I'll bring the wine." Pei Daming's voice sounded outside.
"Isn't this here?" Xu Jingsi hurriedly walked out with a smile. She was not for the purpose of greeting Pei Daming, but for Lin Dalei. "Chef Lin, welcome the big horse, the humble house is full of glory!"
The one who cooks in the cafeteria is not a chef, and Xu Jingsi calls him that just a compliment!
Chef Lin is tall and strong, probably eating too much delicious food and is quite fat. "You are too polite, just have a simple meal."
"Why can you do it? Please help me." Xu Jingsi said with a smile, "Please sit down quickly."
"Drink the wine I brought!" Pei Daming handed over the wine.
Xu Jingsi took the wine over, but the future is long!
He served fried peanuts, sauce-pie meat dipped in garlic, and braised pig's trotters. Pei Daming opened the wine and poured it first, and shouted to them, "Come here and eat together!"
"You guys eat first!" Xu Jingsi brought out another plate of fried eggs with tomatoes that had just been fried, "We'll be there later!"
"Cook less!" said Chef Lin, "I can't eat that much!"
"Not many," Xu Jingsi patted Xiao Ming's head and said with a smile, "Xiao Ming, let your Uncle Lin have a good meal!"
The two stoves cooked quickly. After Xu Jingsi had another celery, she started to make sauerkraut fish. At this time, the chicken was stewed and Wang Guizhi served it out.
"This chicken is good, it's so delicious!" Chef Lin exclaimed outside.
"It smells quite fragrant. Dalei, let's drink and chat, come and go!"
"Okay!"
Then the sound of them clinking cups came outside!
Wang Guizhi and He Runxiang sat down one after another, and Xu Jingsi stewed the fish and came over to sit down.
"Xiao Ming, pour some for your mother, and also pour some for Teacher He and Aunt Xu."
"I won't drink it today," He Runxiang said with a smile, "The dishes that Xu Jing cooked are so greedy. I have to eat more tonight."
"Xiao Ming, pour it for your mother. Auntie doesn't drink it. Auntie will be busy later."
Xiao Ming said reluctantly, "Mom, don't drink it anymore."
Everyone laughed when they heard this. At this moment, Wang Guizhi suddenly said, "Yu Sen is here!"
Chapter completed!
