·

"You guys work first, and I'll go arrange the food. We'll have a big meal at noon." An Yinan told them.
Then she went to the dormitory of the female educated youth and knocked on the door.
Li Xiu'e was sewing insoles when she heard a knock on the door and was a little confused. Why did someone come here today?
"An educated youth, why are you here? Come in quickly." Li Xiu'e looked at An Yinan in surprise. You must know that An educated youth has never been to the dormitory since he came to Quanshui Village.
"I won't go into the house anymore. I'm asking if you have time to help me cook. How about taking care of lunch?" An Yinan was not polite and directly stated his purpose.
She calculated that two stoves were needed to make these dishes. Both the stoves in her room and Xie Yuanyuan's room needed to be used. It was too busy for her alone, so she thought of Li Xiu'e.
She has a good sense of Li Xiu'e, she is a girl who is beautiful and smart, and Li Xiu'e doesn't like to take advantage and is very measured.
"Then the relationship is good, I took advantage." Li Xiu'e agreed and placed the half-sewed insole on the kang.
An Yinan then remembered that she had bought sneakers for Beibei, but she had been so busy these two days that she forgot to give them to him.
"Then let's go to my room and work together." An Yinan watched Li Xiu'e lock the door, and then took her back to her room.
"Look at what's missing. I'm going to make a braised chicken with chestnuts, ribs and corn soup, some vinegared cabbage, and a pot of rice. I still have some left over from the braised pork I bought at a state-owned restaurant yesterday."
"Look at these materials, what are you doing?" An Yinan was thinking about starting a fire together, and everyone would eat early when the food was ready.
Although the vegetable garden is large, Zhang Qian works very quickly and casts it very deep. It is estimated that it will be finished tomorrow.
"So much? Too much meat?" Li Xiu'e thought for a while and made a suggestion.
"People are like rice and steel. No matter how much you save, you can't lose your health. It's okay. I have prepared this in advance. You can see what I can do." An Yinan was not annoyed. He just asked and it was a good intention. .
"It's all up to you. Then I'll make braised chicken with chestnuts and stir-fry cabbage with vinegar." Li Xiu'e thought for a while. As for the corn blanched ribs, she had been in the north for so long that she almost forgot the taste, let alone cooked them. .
When An Yinan heard this, it was easy to handle. He could heat up braised pork, stew pork ribs and corn soup, and stuff it with rice.
"Okay, Li Zhiqing, you can do it in my room. You can use whatever materials you want, and I'll go to Yuanyuan's room to do it." An Yinan made arrangements happily.
She prepared the main ingredients, told Li Xiu'e the location of some condiments, set up the firewood, and then took the materials to Xie Yuanyuan's house.
First, I went to my space to cook a large rice cooker. After thinking about it, I used a pot to heat up some leftover steamed buns from a state-owned restaurant. The main reason was that the steamed buns in my space were too white and were not suitable for taking out when outsiders were around.
After doing this, I returned to Xie Yuanyuan's kitchen. I chopped the ribs and blanched them in hot water to remove the blood. Then I started to stew the ribs. I put the onion, ginger and garlic into the pot and seasoned them. After the pot boiled, I added Chopped corn segments were stewed over low heat, and a rack was placed on top of the stewed ribs. An aluminum lunch box was placed on the rack, which was filled with braised pork. I was afraid that the water on the lid of the pot would fall, so I deliberately put the lunch box away. The lid is closed and not opened.
After adjusting the fire to low, An Yinan went to the space to turn off the induction cooker. The steamed buns were already heated and the rice was still more than ten minutes away.
An Yinan did not go back to the house, but went back to the vegetable garden. He watched the two people working enthusiastically. Zhang Qian was sweating from his hair, while Xie Yuanyuan's hair was already sticking to his face.
The two of them had finished working on one row of vegetable gardens. An Yinan quickly joined in, picked up another pickaxe, and began to dig the soil from the second row. She worked very quickly. She had done these tasks in her previous life, although she later I have no time to move, but I really miss it now.
"The food is ready." It wasn't until Li Xiu'e made chestnut stewed chicken that she went to Xie Yuanyuan's room, but the door was locked.
Hearing noises in the backyard, I walked over and saw three people sweating.
That vegetable garden is well planned, and according to the attitude of these three people, they will definitely grow vegetables well. Unlike their collective vegetable garden, they basically throw away the seeds. It depends on their mood.
After all, this is a collective vegetable garden, so everyone is not that concerned about it.
"Let's take a rest. We'll work again after eating." An Yinan leaned the pickaxe against the wall, quickly returned to Xie Yuanyuan's room, took out all the rice and steamed buns in the space, poured the rice into a porcelain basin, and put the electric rice The pot is returned to the space.
Then I lifted the lid of the pot. The pork ribs and corn soup was very clear, without too much oil, but the light and sweet flavor made it even more attractive.
"Wow, pork ribs soup." Xie Yuanyuan's eyes widened, feeling nostalgic.
She is originally from the south, and her mother often makes soup, but after coming to the north, everyone only eats rice soup with steamed buns as a meal.
Unexpectedly, I saw pork rib soup again today.
"Here, let's take a sip of the soup first to warm our stomachs." An Yinan filled everyone's bowls with soup, and each bowl contained a piece of ribs and a piece of sweet corn.
Xie Yuanyuan couldn't bear it for a long time. If Li Xiu'e hadn't been here, she would have started. Now after hearing An Yinan's order to start the meal, she immediately took a sip from the soup bowl and said, "It's so delicious, Nannan, you stewed it." The soup tastes better than my mother’s stew.”
The little girl squinted her eyes in enjoyment.
Li Xiu'e took a sip. She had been in the north for too long and had forgotten the taste of home. However, this bowl of soup woke her up a lot and made her eyes red. She felt homesick.
"If you like it, I'll make soup for you later." An Yinan didn't understand this kind of feeling. She was an orphan in her previous life and missed her, but after the death of the dean's mother, she no longer missed her.
After traveling through time in this life, her parents were dead, and Beibei was the only one who cared about her. Home was where Beibei and she were.
So she doesn't understand this kind of emotion, but she knows respect.
Zhang Qian didn't say anything. He drank the soup in the bowl happily and started on the chestnut stewed chicken. After taking a bite, he asked, "Is this the chestnut we picked up?"
An Yinan nodded, "That's right."
"Why does it taste different from what I made..." Zhang Qian looked at the chicken and chestnuts in the pot in confusion.
Although he caught pheasants, the chestnuts were still the same chestnuts, and the taste was completely different. The chestnuts were a bit hard, and the chicken was very woody, and it was difficult for him to swallow the soup.
An Yinan said funnyly, "Have you ever considered that it's a human problem?"
Zhang Qian couldn't hold it back and glared at An Yinan.
While the two of them were making jokes, Xie Yuanyuan and Li Xiu'e both calmed down. Without stopping, they quickly picked up a piece of chicken. It was so soft that it absorbed the seasonings in the soup, and the taste was full of fragrance.
Then she went to the dormitory of the female educated youth and knocked on the door.
Li Xiu'e was sewing insoles when she heard a knock on the door and was a little confused. Why did someone come here today?
