Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs - Chapter 8: Egg & Lean Pork Congee
Finally got around to doing another teaser for one of my considered novels, Today Villain Husband Is Lying About Amnesia. It has the most view beside BTTS and ESWHYMY. Do enjoy it, it got a lot of action. If you rather something more modern, enjoy Transmigrated Into The Cannon Fodder's Daughter teaser.
And to the mobile readers, what do you think of the current layout? Which would you rather the former one or current?
Chapter 8 Egg & Lean Pork Congee
She called them over, wiped the face of all three brothers, washed their hands again and then sent them off.
"Mother, it's time to cook." Zhou Da Wa reminded her.
The children were hungry fast. At this time they all became hungry.
Lin Qing He relied on the fact that the brothers were all young and didn’t know what she brought back in her big package, so she went in and got an apple. Without peeling, she just washed, cut to two quarters, and gave a quarter each to Zhou Da Wa and Zhou Er Wa.
As for San Wa, Lin Qing He took a spoon and scraped apple puree to feed him.
Zhou Da Wa and Zhou Er Wa never expected there was such delicious fruit to eat. Even though it was only a quarter, the two of them were very satisfied.
Lin Qing He was not worried, because there were apples and pears at this side, but there were no grapes. She intended to eat the grapes secretly. Occasionally taking advantage of the absence of the two big ones, she can feed some to the little baby, who can’t talk yet.
As for Zhou Er Wa, he was too ghostly sharp. Don't give it to him to eat, so she can save all the trouble that comes from eating.
After feeding half to San Wa, Lin Qing He ate the rest herself. Zhou Da Wa and Zhou Er Wa, who already finished and was prepared to protest about her bias, shut up.
"I'll make meat for you, so take care of your brother." Lin Qing He got up and instructed.
Because the white bun at noon and the little half of the apple, Zhou Da Wa and Zhou Er Wa dare not disobey.
Although they were young and don't understand a lot, they are not stupid. They can slightly feel that their mother seems to treat them better than before?
Lin Qing He entered the kitchen.
There was only one earth stove in the kitchen, but the wok on the top was good. Although the spatula was very old, it was in good condition.
But these were all exchanged by the original owner with her maternal family after her family separation. She had exchanged them for a large price. And it was because of the kitchen equipment, old Zhou Family only agreed on splitting the family.
Otherwise, the wok would have been a big problem after separation. Industrial coupons were not easy to get, and the old Zhou family didn't have any.
Although the kitchen was simple, everyone else was in a similar condition.
From young Lin Qing He had lived with her grandmother in the countryside. So it wasn't hard for her to use this old stove pot, even if she wasn't used to it. What's more, she still had the memory of the original owner. She scrubbed the wok, boiled water, and then got a pot of rice washed.
There was rice in the barrel and flour in the other barrel. But there wasn't much. The original owner had not thought of buying rice and flour on this trip, just cloth for herself to make clothes.
Lin Qing He shook her head, took a bag of rice from the space and poured it in. And then took another bag of flour, poured it into the other barrel and filled the jar full with eggs.
The three kids in the family don't care about these, and they don't know to count. At most, they know that there are more eggs and more rice. As for how much, they don't know. So it was up to her how it goes.
After doing this, Lin Qing He took a piece of lean meat from the space, about 150-200g of it. She planned to make egg lean and pork congee (rice porridge).
As the knife at home was very blunt, Lin Qing He frankly took a new old-fashioned styled kitchen knife from the space and used it.
Since there are few kids at home, as long as she did not do anything out of the ordinary, she was not worried at all. Even if there was something out of the ordinary, can she be worst than the original owner?
Besides, she collected these materials to make herself more comfortable, but not for them to collect dust.
Her new knife was sharp. After washing, it was much easier to chop the meat. The 150-200g lean meat was soon all chopped up. At this time, the water in the pot was also boiled, so the washed rice was poured into it, and then she started stirring with a large spoon to avoid them sticking to the bottom.
"Mother, what are you making for us?" At some unknown time, Zhou Er Wa appeared at the kitchen door and blinkingly asked.
Lin Qing He said: "Tonight we're having egg and lean pork congee tonight."
"Is it delicious?" Zhou Er Wa never had egg and lean pork congee before. But there are eggs and meat, just think about it, it must be very delicious.
"That's of course. It'll make you swallow your tongue later." Lin Qing He said.
Zhou Er Wa could hear that his mother was joking, looked at her, and then cautiously walked over to hug her leg. Lin Qing He glanced down at him, "What's wrong?"
"Mother, you're so good," Zhou Er Wa gazed at her.
"It's enough to know I'm good. In the village, whose mother is a stepmother. Look at the lives of other children, and then look at you, three brothers." Lin Qing He said.
This wasn't a false statement. A household in the village married in a stepmother and toward the former wife's children, she beat and berated. Their lives weren't easy.
Zhou Er Wa giggled, "Mother, don't scare me."
"Won't scare you. Take good care of your younger brother, and I'll have a few new clothes made for you brothers this New Year." Lin Qing He promised.
"New clothes?" Zhou Da Wa heard this as soon as he brought San Wa in and his eyes brightened.
"Mother, do I also get new clothes?" Zhou Er Wa also had an anxious face.
Lin Qing He opened the lid and without turning her head back as she answered, "Be obedient and not do bad things, there will be delicious food and new clothes. But if you are not obedient, then go wear your broken clothes and nibble your cornmeal cake."
"I'll be good!" The brothers shouted immediately.
"Good!" San Wa echoed.
Lin Qing He looked at him in surprise: "San Wa can speak?"
"Ah." San Wa immediately hugged her legs and act spoiled.
Come on, back to his original form again.
However, Lin Qing He was not worried at all. Under the author's pen, he started talking later. Later, he became a guy who is so skilled at talking that he can coax a girl into bursting in joy.
Lin Qing He said to the two big ones: "Do you know where the eggs are? Go in and each get two."
"I know." The two older ones left to get the eggs.
One in each hand meant a total of four. Sure enough, the brothers didn't think about why there were more eggs.
Lin Qing He let Zhou Da Wa go in to get the salt. At this time, the salt was the kind of coarse ones. Lin Qing He glanced and sent out all three brothers.
Then she took out a pack of table salt and used it.
Now that she had materials in the space, it goes without saying she would use the materials in the space first.
Anyway, there are fifty pounds of salt in her space.
After the congee was cooked, Lin Qing He put the minced meat in it and evenly mixed it. She stirred the beaten egg in, added a little salt and this pot of egg and lean pork congee was ready.
Don't know if it was because the original owner hadn't eaten meat for too long, Lin Qing He felt it was very fragrant.
So don't mention the three sons. All three brothers stared into the kitchen.
"All of you wait, it's very hot." Lin Qing He said as she took the bowls, ladled one bowl each for Zhou Dawa and Zhou Er Wa and placed it on the side.
"I can blow my own food!" Zhou DaWa immediately said.
"I can too," Zhou Er Wa followed.
And Zhou San Wa, who was still unable to speak, ran over to hug her leg and screaming 'ah-ah'. His eyes were desperately staring at the porridge.
Lin Qing He picked up Zhou San Wa and left the porridge in the kitchen to cool. She brought Zhou Da Wa and Zhou Er Wa out.
