Chapter 707: You also hooked up with the county governor?
"Chen Hui, hurry up! Come with me to answer the phone!"
The clerk also saw Chen Hui.
She stopped where she was, breathing slightly and waved to him.
"Who's calling?!" Chen Hui was stunned.
Normally, even if someone called the village, the clerk would just shout on the radio and wait for the villagers to go to the village office to answer the call.
The home is far away and it may take more than one or two minutes to reach the village.
The clerk will first ask the other party what the matter is and help record the matter and the call back number.
Then he turned on the radio to call people.
It's rare to see someone in such a hurry.
"He said he was the county magistrate's secretary. What was his name? I was so anxious that I didn't even hear it clearly."
"Anyway, you just need to hurry over there."
"By the way, why did the county magistrate's secretary call you?"
"Shouldn't we ask the village chief to help us with the road repair? What else is there?"
The clerk spoke in confusion and pulled Chen Hui towards the village.
"The county magistrate's secretary Wang Zijian?" Chen Hui asked.
The clerk suddenly realized, "Yes, yes, yes! It's him."
"Don't worry, clerk. It's not a big deal."
"The county magistrate is coming to my house for dinner, so he asked his secretary to call me first and ask if I'm available to host him."
Chen Hui comforted the clerk, but his pace did not slow down at all.
The clerk stood there in a daze for a few seconds, then put some distance between him and her.
After realizing what was happening, he quickly followed and blurted out, "County Magistrate? You even hooked up with the County Magistrate? Are you bragging, kid?"
"The county magistrate named Xu who came to my house for dinner last time, remember him?"
"My cooking skills that day were impeccable, right?"
After Chen Hui finished speaking, he took two steps at a time and jumped over a bumpy village road.
While chatting with those who were busy working, he quickly walked towards the village.
“That’s not Vice.”
The clerk paused and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, it's the county magistrate."
"Speaking of which, that meal was really delicious!"
"The food is good too. You cook it very deliciously."
The clerk spoke with a look of nostalgia on his face.
"Clerk, please stop drooling!"
"We agreed that after the road repair is done, we will go to my house for a meal."
"Let's get two glasses of good wine when the time comes. Such a big thing has been accomplished, so it's necessary to have a drink to celebrate." Chen Hui said with a smile.
"You little bastard, you are becoming more and more disrespectful."
The clerk cursed with a smile.
The two walked into the village side by side and were stunned to see the hung up phone on the table.
"Chen Hui, don't worry!"
"I just told them that since you're having a housewarming party today, they might not be able to come so quickly. I'll call them back later."
"Comrade Wang said there's no need to call back. He'll call you back later."
Chen Guobiao made some tea and held it in his hand.
Seeing Chen Hui coming in, he hurriedly explained.
"I see Chen Hui is not in a hurry. I was shocked." The clerk said with relief.
"Forget it, he said he would fight later, so I'll just wait."
"I'm going to the village chief's house first. The clerk asked if my cooking was delicious. I'll go cook it for you right away."
Chen Hui said this and walked out with a smile.
"No need?! Really? So obedient?!"
The clerk was confused and went outside the village to see.
Chen Hui had already walked quickly to the door of Chen Kaiming's house.
After saying a few words to the invited master, he went into Chen Kaiming's house.
"Chen Hui, you're here?"
"What's wrong with this fish? Come and take a look."
"We've never seen one this big, we don't even know where to start." Yuan Chuanfang and Wang Shuhui were both in the kitchen.
Seeing Chen Hui coming in, Yuan Chuanfang pointed at the fish and said.
"Let me do it! I can do this."
"Aunt Shuhui, can you do me a favor?"
"Go to my house, or to my mother-in-law's house, and bring me the enamel pot that contains the lard."
Chen Hui put down the seasoning he brought and remembered that he forgot to bring the oil.
"Do you have to go get this specially? I have it at home, so you can use it."
Yuan Chuanfang said this as he brought over a large enamel cup filled with lard.
Chen Hui opened the lid and took a look. There was only a bottom layer left inside.
"Aunt, even if you give me all of them, they won't be enough." Chen Hui said.
"Ah?! How are you going to cook it? This much oil isn't enough." Yuan Chuanfang was embarrassed.
"I'll get it!"
"I'll go get it from your house. You don't usually cook, but Sister Lin Jiao needs it every day."
Wang Shuhui said this and stood up from behind the stove.
He dusted the ashes off his apron and went out.
Chen Hui first took some effort to separate the fish head, tail and body.
Chop the fish head into small pieces.
The fish body is divided into three parts, the middle fish bone is chopped into sections, and the fish meat is cut into pieces of appropriate size.
Simply chop off the fish tail.
It is the simplest and easiest part of processing the whole fish.
"Chen Hui, I got the oil tank back for you."
"You are someone who doesn't usually cook, so you are not afraid of spoiling the lard by boiling such a big vat."
Chen Xiaoqiao walked in with an enamel pot.
Yuan Chuanfang saw it and subconsciously exclaimed, "It's so big?"
"Uncle Xiaoqiao, why did you move back here?"
Chen Hui raised his chin and gestured, asking Chen Xiaoqiao to put the things on the other side of the stove.
"Qiao Mei and I are going to give you a gift for moving into your new home!"
"I was thinking about your house. I only went there to be a guest today, but I didn't expect you to run away with me."
This was my only chance, and I wanted to act like a guest, but in the end I haven't done it yet.
Chen Xiaoqiao curled his lips in dissatisfaction.
"Uncle Xiaoqiao, you already have two children, can you be more mature?"
"Make a fire, a big one!"
Chen Hui complained with a smile.
I scooped a full shovel of lard and put it into the pot to melt.
Yuan Chuanfang was cutting vegetables on a square table one step away. When he saw the lard that Chen Hui had dug out, his heart skipped a beat.
What's left in my own enamel cup is only the amount of this spatula.
This amount of oil would normally last at least a week.
Chen Hui fried the fish head and fish bones in two batches.
Add tofu and hardy vegetables and cook them in the pot first.
When the fish head and fish bones are almost cooked, add all the seasonings while there is more soup than meat in the pot.
Then add the fish and easy-to-cook vegetables, cover with a lid and simmer.
"Brother Chen Hui, please go home quickly and check. Sister Xiu Lian and the others are here." An Wenjing came in and shouted.
"Let's treat them to a cup of tea and something to eat first. It's almost time for them to come over for dinner."
"If you're here, then come. It's not like you don't know me."
"Why are you in such a hurry? Is this your first time being a hostess? Are you not used to it?"
Chen Hui said with a smile, reaching out and gently pinching An Wenjing's little face.
"Sister Xiulian and the others sent too many things. It would be inappropriate not to accept them, but it also doesn't feel right to accept them."
"This is the first time I've seen my aunt give such a gift. She can't make up her mind."
"You'll know when you go back and take a look." An Wenjing said, gesturing with her hands.
