Fifty Little Blessed Wife

Chapter 124: Braised Duck, Fruit Wood Roast Duck

After Chen Tiezheng and his wife came back, they were busy again, and the typhoon season was almost here.

The typhoon season runs from July to September every year, and is occasionally delayed until October. This time is almost the time for summer vacation, and there are still many typhoons.

Living by the sea, I really worry that the typhoon will knock down the house, but because the electricity has not been popularized at this time, I really don’t worry about the power outage when the typhoon comes.

The typhoon is about to come recently. In order to prevent his house from being overturned by the typhoon, Su Qiao quickly used his earth element ability to strengthen the walls of the house.

After reinforcing the walls of the house, Su Qiao and the others checked the roof again, and then they were relieved to wait for the typhoon to pass.

In fact, there are not many typhoons during this time. The typhoon season is generally in August and September.

But to take precautions before it happens, it is better to reinforce the house as soon as possible in case of emergency.

After half a month, the seedlings are also full moon, and you can start transplanting.

This time, Nuan Nuan didn't let Chen Tiezheng or Mrs. Yu plant rice on her back. She sat on the cart made of red rattan by Chen Tiezheng and watched them planting rice. She used her powers to help from time to time.

After planting the seedlings, there is not much work to do. The grains and other crops have already been planted while the seedlings are being raised, so when the busy farming season is over, the slack farming begins.

Of course, Chen Tiezheng has work to do. He took his sons and started to build fishing boats. The fishing boats promised to others have not yet been built.

One after another, during the summer vacation and during the typhoon season, Chen Tiezheng completed the fishing boats of Chen Tiechui's family and Huang Yunhai's family.

Huang Yunhai and Chen Tiechui also tried to go out to sea, but they didn't go out too far, but they came back after a day.

Their harvest is not bad. Because there is no cheating device like Nuan Nuan, they have caught several thousand catties of fish, but there are not many precious and precious seafood, but they can earn about one yuan.

This trip made enough for the cost of fishing boats and also made a lot of money, and everyone was very excited.

After two months of preparation, Agou's father also prepared the materials for making the fishing boat, and gave Chen Tiezheng the fifteen yuan for the manual fee plus the money for tung oil and nails.

Chen Tiezheng is now building this fishing boat by himself, because his sons have started school.

After the new semester started, the Zhou family also planned to let his grandson go to the school in the village.

There is an Enlightenment School in Qianwan Village, which was established by the direct branch of the Chen family, and the teachers in it are almost all the children and grandchildren of the Chen family who read a lot.

It's just that after all, this school is only an enlightenment school. The first and second grade courses can be taught, but the third grade and later cannot be taught, so the children can only be sent to the school in the town.

Zhou Shi thought that his grandson should be enlightened when he was five years old, but Su Qiao did not plan to go to school. Even if he wanted to go to school, he would have to go to the town school after the age of seven. Now he has to spend more time with him. warm.

After finally having such a leisurely time, he will not give up.

Nuan Nuan's ducks are very healthy. Not only are they big, they also lay eggs frequently, and there are quite a few double-yolked eggs.

These ducks eat all kinds of fish, shrimps, crabs and shellfish in the sea, so they grow very well, that is, because they eat seafood, the duck meat is a bit fishy.

These ducks are often brought to the beach by Chen Tiezheng or Chen Xunyang, and those ducks will swim and eat fish and shrimps in the water.

There are a lot of aquatic plants growing in the shallow sea near Qianwan Village. Su Qiao takes Nuan Nuan for a walk from time to time, and Nuan Nuan also uses her abilities to nourish the seagrass in the sea.

Most of the seaweeds are seaweeds such as kelp that can purify water quality. The seaweeds grow well and the water quality is good, and fish and shrimps are also willing to come here to take root.

In fact, you can catch a lot of seafood by fishing at the seaside, but you can't make a lot of money by catching fish and shrimps by the seaside. Everyone is still willing to go fishing in farther seas.

Of course, there are only a few families who can go fishing in farther seas, such as Chen Tiechui and Huang Yunhai's family.

Also because there are not so many people in their own families to go out to sea to fish together, and fishing also requires a lot of labor, so almost all of them go out to sea in partnership.

It's just because Chen Tiechui's family and Huang Yunhai's family have a fishing boat, so the owner's family can share a little more of the money earned from selling fish.

And Chen Tiezheng's fishing boat was lent to someone who has a good relationship with them and a very good character.

Of course, they all need to give money. After they borrowed Chen Tiezheng's fishing boat, they also have to give Chen Tiezheng 10% or 20% of the money for selling the fish.

Chen Tiezheng would occasionally go out to fish by himself, but he would go out while Chen Lieyang and the others were on holiday, and occasionally he would go out with the Yu family.

Chen Tiezheng was busy getting the fishing boat ready, Chen Lieyang and the others were going to class after school started, and Yu was busy putting ducks and working in the fields.

After two or three months of feeding, coupled with the abundance of seaweed, fish, shrimp, and crabs, the ducks grew to five or six pounds in more than eighty days, and some even weighed seven or eight pounds.

And the geese have grown up a lot, and they are almost ten pounds heavy.

This is all because they eat well and are not easy to get sick. The selected vegetables, weeds and medicinal herbs on the duck shed have been growing all the time. These ducks and geese eat all day long. .

And Nuan Nuan's ducks and geese have also laid eggs now, and there are a lot of double yolks, which makes Yu very happy.

Chen Lieyang, who can pick up hundreds of duck and goose eggs every day, will bring goose eggs to sell every time they go to school.

Of course, most of the time, they will send a little to Chen Tiezheng's comrades in the town who are police officers, but they don't send them often.

After all, if you give something to a person every day, and if you don't give it one day, then that person will definitely think that you are heinous, that you are too bad, too stingy, etc.

For years and months, a comrade-in-arms delivers vegetables and meat for free, day after day, year after year, how can there be such a good thing?

Chen Tiezheng sent vegetables, fish and eggs to his comrade-in-arms because he cared about this comrade-in-arms because he hoped that his sons would not be bullied when they were studying in the town.

I want my comrades-in-arms to help take care of my son, so that they will not be bullied by others.

But he won't be taken advantage of and give things every day, it will definitely raise the appetite of others.

Of course, Chen Tiezheng also knew that the character of his comrade-in-arms family was okay, but he was unwilling to test the bottom line of his comrade-in-arms family.

Occasionally let the sons send something, once or twice a month is very good.

Bai Xiahe is not the kind of person who takes advantage of others and is complacent, and then wants to continue to take advantage of more. Most of the time, it was Bai Xiahe who went shopping with Chen Lieyang and the others by himself.

Now the ducks in the family have grown up. Except for the ducks that are still laying eggs, some of the other ducks can be sold one after another. After all, all the ducks in the family are five or six pounds big, and they can make a lot of money by selling them, so Chen Lieyang and the others not only often bring duck eggs to sell, but also occasionally bring one or two ducks to sell.

It is said that duck meat is less popular than chicken because the duck has a stronger fishy or stink smell, but it is hard to warm them up. Nuan Nuan and the others have blue seven-star grass, so they are not afraid of the fishy smell of ducks at all.

Just when Chen Lieyang and the others brought the ducks to sell, the family also prepared to kill one or two ducks for everyone to taste. From the very beginning, Su Qiao prepared two or three ducks to make lo-mei, and two ducks to make roast duck.

The ducks have been cleaned up by Chen Lieyang and Chen Tiezheng. The ducks have many faces, so it takes a lot of time to deal with them. The duck down that was smashed was not thrown away, but was put aside for a while and then washed and dried. Su Qiao planned to use duck down to make a down jacket for Nuan Nuan to wear.

Although it is only autumn now, and the autumn tiger is sultry and hot, it will become cold in a short time. It is better to prepare duck down early and make a down jacket for Nuan Nuan so that she will not be frozen in winter.

Suqiao prepared cinnamon, star anise, galangal, shanna, cumin, licorice, gardenia, cardamom, tangerine peel, grass fruit, clove, fragrant sand, bay leaf and other spices, of course ginger, dried chili and pepper Ready, red yeast rice is also ready.

Su Qiao set up a stove in the yard. After the fire was lit, he put a large pot of clay pot on the stove, put the ducks in it, and then added water. Put more water. In order to be able to eat more, Su Qiao washed ten duck eggs and cooked them together.

After boiling the water in the clay pot with high heat, skim off the foam that gradually rises from the soup. All the braised ingredients are wrapped in a small gauze bag, and the red yeast rice is wrapped in another small gauze bag and stewed in a pot together.

Wash the whole chives, put them in a knot, add cooking wine, rock sugar, salt and dark soy sauce, cover the pot and then simmer. Don't worry about the rest, Su Qiao is ready to handle another roast duck.

After the duck was cleaned up before, Su Qiao had already marinated it with dark soy sauce, scallion knots, ginger, salt, five-spice powder, and cooking wine. Originally, the roast duck should have been marinated for a day and a night or overnight. When I couldn't catch up with the time, I speeded up the marinating speed. He used a special method to make the seasoning more delicious, and marinated the duck even more delicious.

Take out the marinated duck and brush with honey water. The honey water is still the one left before, and Su Qiao didn't leave the honey for drinking water, right? Whether it is baking flavor or starting pastry, honey is needed, right?

After the duck was brushed with honey water, Su Qiao prepared a lot of seasonings and even mushrooms and boiled and shelled duck eggs, stuffed them into the duck's stomach and sewed up the duck's stomach. Then hook the duck's breastbone with an iron hook, and then put the duck brushed with honey water into the stove to roast.

The stove made by Su Qiao is not very big or high, and it can only roast one or two ducks.

The oven made by Su Qiao is also closed, and it has been heated at this moment, and the red charcoal is also burned with lychee branches, and the duck is put into it. Twenty minutes later, take out the duck, brush with a layer of honey again, then put it in and bake for half an hour.

When the two roast ducks are all finished, the braised duck in the pot is almost finished.

"The taste of this roast duck is really fragrant, and the taste of braised duck is also very fragrant." Chen Xunyang was lying on the table next to him and watched Su Qiao directing his elder brother and his father to help make braised duck roast duck, smelling the aroma and feeling I'm about to drool.

He had eaten all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas before, when did he become so unrestrained, just smell the smell of braised duck and roast duck, and he couldn't stand it?

"Third brother, did you have roast duck during the Yong Dynasty?" Chen Ouyang, like his third brother, lay on the table and watched the scene of a group of people busy making roast duck. Surrounded by the fragrant meat aroma, he asked Chen curiously. Xunyang Road.

"No." Chen Xunyang shook his head and said, "According to what we said at the time, the taste of duck is not very good, so we eat chicken and goose duck meat, just like pork, it is not for us nobles. ."

"Huh? Don't you all eat pork?" Chen Ouyang was very surprised, because he had eaten a lot of pork in the past few years. Pork is so delicious, why didn't the third brother eat it?

"In fact, we don't eat pork on our side. Pork is eaten by some low-level civilians, and people with status such as nobles and magicians eat monster meat." Chen Jiaoyang also said.

"Xiao Wu, did a lot of people eat pork at that time? According to what you said, your era has passed for a long time, and many Chinese delicacies must have disappeared, right?"

"It's been about five or six thousand years since our time, and many things seem to be gone after a few cataclysms, that is, the language and some characters have not been lost, but many books, The cultural heritage is all broken," Chen Ouyang said.

"It seems that the food we all made at that time, the cooking method is steaming and roasting. Although we can make full use of the nutritional value of the ingredients, but the taste is not very delicious. We can give full play to the taste of food. The ones who came out were the few great culinary masters in our era, and the rest of the chefs just brought out the nutritional value of the ingredients." Chen Ouyang said depressedly.

"My family is not really a big family, and I am a sideline and not very talented, so I really haven't eaten the food made by those great chefs. I eat all the food. It's some foods that are rich in nutrients and balanced, but don't taste very good."

"Especially at that time, we had nutritional supplements. If we wanted to eat nutritional supplements, the taste was really unflattering. There are all kinds of flavors." Chen Ouyang said with a look of disgust.

"One tube of nutritional supplements can supplement the nutrition of your meal, but the taste of nutritional supplements is very strange. If it is the usual fruit flavor, or the taste of some gourmet food, it is fine, but there are some strange tastes. ."

"Oh? Strange smell, what kind of strange smell do you know?" Chen Xunyang asked curiously.

"What is the smell of stinky tofu, the smell of durian, and even the smell of stinky tofu stewed with durian." Chen Ouyang said.

"Actually, we don't know what you said. We have never eaten stinky tofu or durian, so we can't imagine the taste." Chen Xunyang said with a smile.
