Chapter 549 I must get what I want!
"Chen Hui, what's in this box? It looks so high-end!"
Huang Xiu Lian asked curiously.
"It's Lingzhi! This is a rare good thing!!"
"It can replenish qi and calm the mind, relieve cough and asthma, replenish essence and strengthen yang. Well, the rest is not suitable for you to discuss in detail. Anyway, every man should eat some!"
Steam came out of the copper kettle. Chen Hui picked up the kettle and went out to add boiling water to the cup.
He grinned and smiled shyly.
He Juanjuan and Huang Xiulian smiled at each other.
understood! understood!
Chen Hui said no more and went into the kitchen to process the sheep whip he had just bought.
Cut open the sheep's urethra, rinse it clean, then add sake and continue rubbing and cleaning it.
Put the food into a pot with cold water, add a piece of old ginger and cooking wine and cook.
I took out the big stew pot I bought in the city last time from the basket on the side.
After cleaning inside and out, take out the blanched sheep whip, clean it, and put it into the stewing pot.
Add a little sake and the remaining Chinese medicinal herbs from stewing lamb at Chen Huihong’s house last time.
Add plenty of cold water.
Clean the large pot and place the stew pot in it.
I peeked over to see Huang Xiulian and He Juanjuan, who were still whispering to Ganoderma lucidum in front of the cabinet.
He laughed and shouted, "Is there any kind lady who could come and help light the fire? I'm a little overwhelmed!"
"I'm coming!"
"I know from the last time I came to eat here that you can't do it without a few people to help you!"
Huang Xiu Lian responded and sat down behind the stove with a smile.
"Chen Hui, your Ganoderma lucidum is displayed so beautifully, are you planning to sell it?" He Juanjuan followed in and asked.
"I'm not planning on selling them! I only have a few of them and I'm planning on keeping them for myself."
"Wen Jing will give birth to a baby next year, so she needs to eat it even if her qi and blood are weak!"
Chen Hui was dealing with Yang Bao and answered without turning his head.
"Is it also useful for treating qi and blood deficiency after giving birth?" Huang Xiu Lian asked.
"Replenishing Qi and calming the mind, isn't it replenishing Qi and blood?"
"I don't understand much else about giving birth, but I do know that you have to bleed a lot. It would be strange if you don't feel exhausted after losing so much blood. You must replenish your body."
Chen Hui was not talking nonsense about this.
So it sounds particularly justified.
Huang Xiu Lian and He Juan Juan exchanged glances.
Seeing that Chen Hui was busy with work, he didn't say anything more.
They sat together and chatted about family gossip, and helped to light the fire and stew the soup.
Chen Hui processed the mutton, cut it into pieces with fancy patterns, skewered it with long sticks and put it aside.
Then take out the lamb chops, clean them, and soak them in cold water with a little sake.
Wash and cut the remaining vegetables and put them on a plate.
After preparing all the dishes, Chen Hui was sweating all over his face.
Wiped away the sweat.
I took a cup to the dining table and poured myself a glass of warm water to drink.
Seeing that there was not much water left in the copper stove, he scooped another bucket of water into it and put it in the middle of the charcoal stove to burn.
"Chen Hui, your charcoal stove is very special. Why is it so long?" He Juanjuan asked curiously when she saw that Chen Hui was free.
After all, it is so long that the heat loss will be very large.
It looks like waste charcoal.
"This is a good stove. When I built the house, I specifically asked my brother-in-law to watch the bricklayer build it."
"Boil water is secondary. The main thing is to roast something to eat!" Chen Hui said while drinking water.
"Grilled food? What are you going to grill today?" They had tried Chen Hui's barbecue before, so they were looking forward to it when they heard about grilled food.
"Grill some lamb chops, grill a pomfret, and grill two lamb eggs." said Chen Hui.
"This is chicken soup, sheep whip, and sheep eggs!"
"Chen Hui, I brought a friend here today to celebrate his wife's birthday, not her birthday." He Juanjuan said.
Chen Hui smiled and shook his head, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you being so shy?" Huang Xiu Lian said.
"No, no, there are some things you can think about in your mind, but it would be impolite to say them out loud." Chen Hui shook his head.
"Isn't it just a simple matter? We are all grandmothers, how can we not understand?"
"It's you, a young man, who is young and newly married, who is too shy to say it, right?" Huang Xiu Lian teased.
He Juanjuan was also very curious, "Tell me, is there anything special about today's meal?"
"Cough cough!"
Chen Hui cleared his throat and said, "He would take his wife out to celebrate her birthday, which shows that the couple must have a good relationship. In this case, isn't this the best birthday gift?"
Chen Hui smiled and pointed to the big pot where lamb penis was stewed.
"Hey! You young man! This marriage was not in vain, right?" Huang Xiu Lian said and then burst into laughter.
"You little brat! I really can't guess what's going on in your mind!"
"I asked you to prepare and give me the whole outline, right?" He Juanjuan scolded with a smile.
Chen Hui grinned.
After drinking the water in the cup, he went to the water tank outside and grabbed the last and largest silver pomfret that was left from last time. He took it out and knocked it unconscious with a stick.
I started processing the fish at the sink in the backyard.
"I just wanted to discuss something with him. Why does he have so many things to do?"
Huang Xiulian sighed.
He Juanjuan added more firewood to the stove and said, "Don't worry. If you don't have time today, we can talk about it another day! It's not like he's going to sell it to someone else. It's still too early for Wen Jing to have a baby."
"Yeah! That's true. Wen Jing is pregnant recently, so he probably won't need this."
"Really, if he wants to sell it, I don't really want it."
"As soon as he said he wasn't going to sell it but was going to keep it, I wanted to get it!"
After Huang Xiu Lian finished speaking, she couldn't stand herself anymore and shook her head.
He Juanjuan also laughed, "Don't mention it, I have the same mentality!"
Chen Hui processed the pomfret, simply cut it a few times, and took it back to the kitchen to marinate it with seasoning.
Take out the lamb chops that have been soaked enough and use a clean towel to absorb the excess water.
It is also marinated with a slightly different seasoning than the white pomfret.
He washed his hands with soap, wiped them and asked, "Sisters, can I have some more tea for you?"
"You have nothing to do now?" Huang Xiu Lian asked hurriedly.
"These grilled foods need to be marinated for two hours and grilled before people arrive."
"All we have to do now is wait for these two soups. These are the highlights of the evening."
"Ah! No, there is still something to do."
Chen Hui picked up the copper kettle and took it out to add water.
I washed all the pots, pans, and utensils I brought back from the city and piled them aside waiting to be used.
I remembered that I was in a hurry this morning and sold the green onions but forgot to buy the scallions.
He said, "Sister Xiu Lian, you light the fire first. I'm going to pick some onions from my neighbor's house opposite," and then hurried out.
"Hey, this Chen Hui, I just saw that he had nothing to do, so he came to me with jobs one after another."
"Is he afraid that I will buy Lingzhi from him? Is he doing this on purpose?!"
