The next morning, at dawn, a thunderstorm woke everyone up from their dreams.
The first thing that happened was that a gust of wind poured in through the window, blowing several light objects on the table to the ground.
It was dark outside, with only a touch of white in the sky and a flash of lightning lighting up the outside of the house for a moment, followed by darkness again.
The next thing you know, the bean drops of rain came down, hitting the glass windows with a thud, and Zhou Yan was busy closing the open windows.
This is a very timely rain. Last night Zhou Yan listened to Lu Jianguo chanting that if it doesn't rain during this period of time, the fields won't be able to be cultivated without water.
In the past, when there was a shortage of water in the fields, they used to rely on pumps to bring it in from the river, but now that diesel is in short supply, even the pumps can't be used.
The rain didn't let up until after breakfast, but the sky was no longer gloomy, and sewage with yellow mud behind the houses flowed quickly through a drain in the corner, then flowed into the rice fields in front.
The location of their village was really good, the inside was slightly higher than the outside, and there was a river in front, so even if there was a heavy rainstorm, there would be no water in the village.
And the river bank is also several meters high, unlike the opposite side.
According to Lu Jianguo, even more than twenty years ago, the whole country rose flood that time, their village also only flooded a few pieces of the river a little lower ground fields, water did not rise to the village entrance.
After that, the rain hasn't gotten any lighter, so Lu Jianguo was afraid that the water would flood over the ridges and push them down, so he wanted to go and dig an opening to release the water in his own two fields.
The two of them, Zhou Yan and Lu Baichuan, would not let him go, so they found two straw raincoats from the storage room and took two hats, one for each of them, and then put on the hats.
When he went out, Lu Bachuan took another hoe.
The straw raincoat is not as light as the raincoat, but it is more comfortable to wear, not only does it not get blown by the wind, but it also does not get wet, so it does not stick to your body in a sticky way.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the actual product or service you've been using, and then you'll be able to see it for yourself.
The other piece of land was farther away from the river, when the narrow road was filled with swift water, and the two men, wearing only slippers, walked carefully so as not to slip.
When they reached the edge of the field, they met Lu Baiming and his son who also came over to drain the water, Lu Baichuan greeted them, Zhou Yan didn't know them very well, so he just nodded.
Zhou Yan saw that Lu Baiming was in good spirits, his face was much better than the day he met him, and the atmosphere between Lu Xingye and his father and son was normal, not like a fight, guessing that the problem that made the father and son fight when they returned that day should have been solved.
It was the first time I had ever been to a school, and I'm not sure if I've ever been to a school, but I'm sure I've never been to a school where I've never been to a school before.
Zhou Yan saw Lu Baichuan using his hoe all the way through the weeds and looking carefully at something, and couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking for?"
"Crucian carp." After saying that and fearing that he was expecting too much, he explained, "The top of this ditch is the outlet of our village's fish pond, it's often just blocked with a fence, usually when it rains heavily there will be small carp running out, when I was little I used to come over to catch fish when it rained, I don't know if there are any now."
When it comes to crucian carp, Zhou Yan immediately came to the mood, fish and shrimp this kind of aquatic products he has always liked, in his last life since the end of the world has not smelled the smell of fish, now when you hear the word crucian carp, the brain constantly popped up in the crucian carp various ways to eat, what braised, sauce stew, steamed, crucian carp tofu and a whole lot more.
The first thing that they did was to follow Lu Baichuan all the way up the river in search of the carp, but today they were lucky and caught the first fish in no time.
The carp is only three fingers wide. Lu Baichuan asked Zhou Yan to catch the fish and don't let it get away, but he pulled a few long weeds from the side and tied a knot on the top. It wouldn't be escaped and it wouldn't die.
It should be because the standard of living for everyone has been good over the years, and there are fewer people in the village catching fish, so there are quite a few crucian carp swimming out at this time, and the two of them went all the way up, a short distance, and actually caught more than twenty carp, hanging three strings full of weeds, although the sizes vary, but the total added up to about two pounds.
The two men went home satisfied.
In the middle of the day, Zhou Yan took the initiative to ask to cook, although his other dishes are not necessarily as good as those cooked by Lu Jianguo and Ye Yuanrong, but in the area of fish and shrimp, because he likes to eat and has studied it before, the taste of the fish is absolutely no inferior.
The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services, including a full range of products and services, including a full range of products and services.
There were twelve or thirteen left, and Zhou Yan, wearing a straw coat, killed them at the well, because he wasn't used to working with a hat, and Lu Bachuan was there with an umbrella to help him cover his head.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the carp, and then you need to take a look at the carp's stomach.
The guts cleaned out were also not thrown away, and were placed in a basin next to it, which Ye Wanyong said would be used to feed the chickens.
Noon is Chef Zhou Yan, he's not used to having someone around when he's cooking, so he didn't even let Lu Bachuan to come over to fight, just took a pot of green vegetables for him to wash outside.
And because he wouldn't use gas to stew the rice directly like this, so when he killed the fish Ye Yuan Rong had already stewed the rice, he just had to be in charge of frying the vegetables.
The lunch dishes would be braised crucian carp, stewed potatoes with ribs, stir-fried carrots, and a green vegetable, which would be enough for four people.
Zhou Yan put the crucian carp into a large pot, add ginger, cooking wine, light soy sauce and salt, mix it well and set it aside to marinate, then start preparing the other ingredients.
The ribs are cut into sections and blanched in cold water, while the water is boiling, the potatoes are cut into pieces and the carrots are shredded.
After the water boils, drain the ribs, cold pan of hot oil to the ribs and potatoes are fried for a while, then skim the soup before blanching the foam into the pot, add a fragrant leaves, cover the lid and turn down the heat to simmer slowly, seasoning when the pot is almost ready to add on.
When the carp is ready, put the drained carp into the pan and fry it slowly on low heat, turning it over when it is browned on one side so that the skin will not be broken, and after the fish is fried, beat a few eggs and fry it until it is browned. When the soup is boiling, add the fried fish and fried egg, cook for a little while, add some soy sauce, sprinkle with green onions and you're ready to go.
This is a private recipe that Zhou Yan learned from his mother, delicious and simple, the fish soup is fresh and spicy, extremely delicious.
The carrots and vegetables are both quick and easy to make. By the time Zhou Yan has made these two dishes, the ribs and potatoes are almost ready to be stewed with some seasonings.
Only then did Zhou Yan call Lu Baichuan in to serve the dishes.
By the time he put the last dish on the plate, outside Lu Bachuan had already set up the dishes.
Ye Yuanrong inspected the table and said it looked good. Zhou Yan handed over the chopsticks and asked her to taste it.
After tasting each dish, Ye Yuanrong praised Zhou Yan. Although she and Lu Jianguo were good cooks, Lu Baichuan did not inherit anything from them, or maybe it was because they were so good at cooking that Lu Baichuan did not have to worry about not having good food.
They knew that Zhou Yan could cook, but they had never really seen it, and now that he was actually such a good cook, they were naturally happy, not only to be able to cook something delicious to honor themselves, but also to save themselves the worry that their son would have nothing to eat after the two old men left.
A few people were satisfied with the meal, and after the meal Lu Jianguo pointed to the braised fish that had been eaten without any leftovers: "Where did you learn this dish, it's not bad!"
"My mom used to teach me that." Zhou Yan replied, followed by, "If you like it, uncle, I'll make it for you often in the future!"
"Why don't you call Dad now?" Lu Jianguo looked like he was barely giving you a chance to call my dad for the sake of this pot of fish.
"Dad, if you like it, I'll often make it for you in the future!" Zhou Yan beat the snake and immediately changed his words.
Pretending not to know that Lu Jianguo said so as a result of being educated by Ye Yuanrong last night, now that he is deaf and clear-eyed, he heard clearly what Ye Yuanrong said to Lu Jianguo downstairs last night although he went upstairs early.
