Spring scenery in the fields

Chapter 395 Egg Fried Rice

Shen Rongshan curled his lips and said, "Okay, buy whatever you want to eat. Don't save."

Ji Wenhe stretched his head and looked into the yard. They had not returned yet.

She walked over quickly and kissed the corner of his lips: "Brother Shen, just tell me what you want to eat. We have money, as long as it's not too expensive, we can afford it."

"What can you afford?" As soon as Zhu Danian entered the yard, he heard them talking about whether something was expensive or not.

"Uncle Da Nian, let's talk about making fried rice for a while. Please go inside and sit down."

"Where are Wenshan and Yuanshan?"

Shen Rongshan replied: "I'm going to get the cabbage and pumpkin. Master, please go into the house."

"to make."

He decided not to stand there and get in their way, but took the two dogs into the house to play with them.

Shen Wenshan came back with a winter melon and a pumpkin: "Sister-in-law, I'll make the pumpkin pie."

"Okay, I'll peel the garlic."

I had taught them how to make pumpkin pie before, and all three of them know how to make it.

"By the way, Wenshan, make a few more pieces and send some to Aunt Lan's house later."

"Got it, sister-in-law. I steamed all the pumpkin."

Cut the winter melon in half, cut all the side dishes, bring them into the main room and place them on the table.

Shen Rongshan took out the stove, lit the fire and put in the wood, washed the pot and put it on top, and asked, "Wen He, pour the fried chili sauce in and then pour the water?"

"Yes, one side is spicy and the other side is not spicy."

Zhu Danian sat beside him and said, "Point the smoke outlet toward the door and move the stove behind the door."

I did as he said and closed the door gently, leaving only a small gap.

After closing the door, the room became much warmer.

"Master, please come over here and warm yourself by the fire."

"You go ahead and put the ones that are not easy to cook into the pot, and make me some spicy dipping sauce, but use less."

It tastes better if it’s a little spicy.

Shen Rongshan prepared a sauce for him. Fearing it would be too spicy, he ladled some warm water into it: "Master, taste it and see if it's tasty enough."

Zhu Danian dipped some with chopsticks and put it in his mouth: "It's a bit bland, add a little more chili."

He picked up the sauce and poured a little less.

He stirred it with chopsticks, took a bite, and nodded: "Well, it tastes almost the same now."

Shen Yuanshan carried the chopped bamboo shoots and cabbage into the house and said, "Brother, there are shrimps in the cabinet in the corridor."

Shen Rongsheng took the plate: "Go and get it."

He responded.

The aroma of egg fried rice wafted through the kitchen.

Ji Wenhe saw Shen Yunshan coming in and pointed at the bowl on the table: "Yuanshan, take it to Aunt Lan's house."

"it is good."

Under the four pumpkin pancakes is a bowl of stir-fried pork and bamboo shoots.

The cooked dishes were brought into the main room: "Uncle Da Nian, come and eat. There is not much rice left from lunch. Let's share some egg fried rice. Eat the rice first, otherwise it will get cold and it won't taste good."

"There are eggs in the fried rice, why are you bringing more eggs?" Zhu Danian asked.

"Put it in the pot and eat it later, Uncle Da Nian, I'll get you a spoon."

Shen Rongshan saw the water in the pot was boiling, so he put the meat and bamboo shoots in and said, "Master, please sit over here by the fire."

"I can sit anywhere. It's warm in the room now."

After delivering the cakes, Shen Yuanshan came back and said, "I'll eat with the bowl in my hand."

There is oil at the bottom, mix it with egg fried rice.

Ji Wenhe handed the spoon to Zhu Danian: "Okay, sit down, it's time to eat. Eat the egg fried rice first."

Shen Wenshan took a bite of the egg fried rice and praised: "Sister-in-law, the egg fried rice is really delicious."

It was his first time eating egg fried rice.

"Next year, let's save some more rice and cook whenever we want. We already have eggs at home, so we don't need to buy any."

Zhu Danian took over the conversation: "I wanted to buy an acre of land in Zhaojia Village and grow some food, but my villager said that I was over 50 years old and should not think about farming anymore."

"Occasionally I go hunting in the mountains, sell the prey in town, and buy some food for myself."

Ji Wenhe agreed: "The head of the village is right. Farming is very tiring. If you want to eat, go to town to buy some. Or we can save some for next year and send you a bag."

"You should stop working so hard on the farm. Besides, you can't eat much by yourself. Raising seedlings, pulling up seedlings, transplanting rice, and weeding are very troublesome, right, Brother Shen?"

Shen Rongshan nodded: "Master, don't think about farming. I can support you."

"I was just thinking about it and talked to the village head about it. I'm lazy and don't want to farm. Otherwise, after so many years in Zhaojia Village, I wouldn't have no land at all."

Shen Wenshan picked up the bamboo shoots from the bottom of the pot with a spoon and said, "It's cooked. Hurry up and pick them up."

Each person took a piece.

Ji Wenhe didn't like eating bamboo shoots very much, so he ate a piece to taste it.

After finishing the egg fried rice in the bowl, pour some prepared sauce into it and add cabbage and winter melon into the pot.

Shen Rongshan reminded: "Wen He, put the mutton in the spicy pot. It's at the bottom and should be cooked."

He scooped it out with a bamboo colander, and the tofu was cooked.

Ji Wenhe held out the bowl to him and asked him to pour the food into the bowl: "I don't eat winter bamboo shoots, so you can just take them all."

"Brother, I want it. Give me two pieces so I can try what's cooked in the spicy hot pot." Shen Wenshan said.

Shen Rongshan divided the rest between the two of them.

It was a little hot when it came out of the pot. Ji Wenhe picked up the mutton and blew on it: "Next year, I must order beef earlier and make braised beef."

Zhu Danian said, "Next year I will go to the town to place an order. I will say hello to my old acquaintance. His family can place an order every year, and the boss will specially reserve a few kilograms for him."

"Beef is hard to buy. Even if you come early next year, you may not be able to order it. The big families have already booked it."

Shen Yuanshan was puzzled: "The boss who sells beef asked me to come earlier next year, which means I can order it earlier next year."

Ji Wenhe said slowly, "He can only tell you this. He can't tell you not to order beef anymore because it has already been ordered by rich people. You won't be able to order it next year."

"If that's what he said, and he met someone with a bad temper, what if they quarreled and then started fighting? But if Uncle Da Nian didn't say that, I would have thought that he could have booked it earlier next year."

Zhu Danian shook his head: "It's not easy to order. Even if you pay more, they may not be willing to sell it to you."

Shen Wenshan picked up the meat from the bowl and said, "In the past, the older generation would say that as long as you have money you can buy anything. But now it seems that even if you have money you may not be able to buy anything. You also need power."

Several people nodded.

It is true. There are many things in the world that you may not be able to buy with money, but you can buy them with power.

But some things require not only money but also power.

After the Spring Festival, families start visiting each other.

This day.

It was snowing heavily outside. Ji Wenhe was lying on the bed, leaning against the headboard. In front of him was a small table with snacks on it. He was looking at the notebook he bought from the town.

Zhao Xiaoxi pushed open the gate and said, "Wen He."

"I'm in the house."

He opened the door, walked into the room and said with a smile, "It's warm in bed."

Ji Wenhe patted the bed beside him and said, "Come and sit down. It's warm in the quilt. Look at me. I don't even want to get up. Let's have some snacks."
