Chapter 10 Attacking Foodies

"Although it's snowing now and the river is frozen, it's not as cold as it is in the twelfth lunar month, and the ice surface is not thick. Uncle Tan and his friends chiseled the ice and lifted the fish basket. They found that the fish had grown a lot, so they picked up the six largest ones and took them back. I went to see it just now. Each one weighed four or five kilograms, and they are still jumping around!

My mother said that the fish were kept for the soup to replenish the lady and the young master.

After I finished eating, I would go to the river to fish it out. My second brother put a lot of fish fry in it at the beginning."

Rong Yunhe had heard of Yun Xing's fish raising that her second brother Cai Ershun had in modern times.

The northwest is bitter and cold. As soon as September begins, winter begins. There are almost no other dishes on the tables of the villagers, except for cabbage and radish. Everyone lives a hard life, so they think of ways to improve their lives.

People next to the river usually put the fry fish caught from the river into the fish basket when the river water is not frozen, and then put the fish basket into the river.

In winter, the ice on the river surface is smashed and the fish basket is sucked, and the fry raised inside will grow into big fish.

When talking about fish, Rong Yunhe felt that the saliva in her mouth became doubled.

Speaking of which, although Mother Lu and Aunt Luo have been willing to replenish her body these two days, the snowy and frozen river surface is solid, let alone the fish and shrimps that can be eaten, there is not even a shadow!

Cai Bairui went to the county town last time, but he didn't see anyone selling fresh fish and shrimps in the market, so since she came here, she hasn't tasted the fish and shrimps!

In the sixteen years of Xue Wuniang's life, under the strict discipline of the nanny, she had almost never touched fish, shrimp and other river food. Now she heard that there were six big fish at home, and she immediately became greedy.

But although the stewed soup was extremely delicious, in that case, only I and my brother could eat it at home.

Although the Cai family and the Tan family are nominally servants of their Rong family, from the two days after Rong Yunhe woke up, he felt everyone's meticulous care for her, and he had long regarded them as their relatives in his heart.

In the past two days, I couldn't resist Lu's mother. I watched me and my brother eat delicious food in different ways, including bird's nest, tremella, longan and red dates, and so on every day. However, Yunying and the others could only eat coarse grains, pickles, porridge, and occasionally eat eggs. Rong Yunhe had long been uncomfortable.

Now she finally got six fish. If she had let herself eat alone, she would really not be able to overcome that hurdle.

After all, Uncle Tan, Uncle Cai and Yun Xing’s four brothers all work hard. The coarse grain cakes and pickles I eat on weekdays are not even some oil and water, so how can I get enough?

Yun Xing is just less than one year older than herself, and it is the time to grow up. Since the situation this year was not good and her family began to save money, she has now found that Yun Xing's already slim body has become thinner and looks a little weak.

So, Rong Yunhe thought about it in her heart and decided to find a way to make everyone eat fish and improve their lives.

She did it as soon as she said that, and after she made a decision, she immediately sat up from the kang, and did not pick up the walnut kernels and pine nuts that had been peeled from Yun Xing's hand, but ordered Yun Xing, "Take me to the kitchen and take a look."

Yun Xing held a handful of walnut kernels and pine nuts in her hand. She was startled and asked quickly, "Miss, this is awesome, why are you going to the kitchen? My mother said that the kitchen is not clean and is not the place for the masters to go. Besides, you are still weak now and it is still snowing outside. You can't go out and blow the wind."

Rong Yunhe was excited and forgot that he could not go out now, so he had to sit down and say, "Then you go and call your mother and Aunt Luo, I have something to tell them."

Although Yun Xing was a little confused, she immediately left the embroidery building as she said, and went to the kitchen in the front yard to call Lu's mother and Luo Cailei over.

Rong Yunhe took the handful of small walnut kernels and pine nuts and slowly put them in his mouth to taste. The fragrance immediately captured her, a snacker.

Yunying looked at Rong Yun and her comfortable food while squinting her eyes and enjoying the delicious food, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss, don't panic. I heard from the big girl that these walnut kernels and pine nuts will be more fragrant after being fried!"

Luo Cailei was discussing with Mother Lu in the kitchen how to deal with the fish. When he heard Yun Xing come over and say that the lady had something to say, but he thought it was something important, so he quickly pulled Mother Lu over. At this time, he was still wearing a coarse cloth apron on his body and didn't have time to take it off.

As soon as she and Lu's mother entered the door, they asked with concern: "What's wrong with the lady? Just say anything, just say it, everything is with your mother and I!"

Rong Yunhe was even more moved, so he said his meaning without hesitation: "I just heard Yun Xing say that Uncle Tan and Brother Cai and others brought back a lot of things to the mountains today. Brother Cai and the second brother came back with six fish, right?"

Seeing that Rong Yunhe mentioned this, Luo Cailei felt relieved and wiped his wet hands on the apron casually, and said, "Yes, we were talking about how to deal with those six fish just now! Your mother said that if the air was cold today, the six fish would be kept and hung under the eaves of the kitchen. It would not break even if it was frozen into ice. I would stew one for you and the young master every day to replenish your body.

Now your body bones are just right, and the deer, hare and pheasant have to wait until you have good bones to eat. So I will process the wild animals later, marinate them with salt, put them in the cellar and store them. Let's eat them slowly when we go back."

Rong Yunhe encouraged herself in her heart, and then said, "Mom, Aunt Luo, although I am sick now, I stay in this room and don't go out, but I know what the situation is outside.

My brother and I ate as delicate as before every day, but you all ate coarse grains, steamed buns and dilute porridge. How did you feel sad about this?

I know, you feel sorry for your brother to study hard, but I am not in good health, so I want to make up for it. But there is no oil in the food every day. Uncle Tan, Uncle Cai and Brother Cai all have to work hard, so how can I withstand it?"

ps: It was already past ten o'clock in the evening when I wrote this chapter. Awu, who was hungry, wrote so many delicious foods, and felt even more hungry... I really wanted to go out to eat fish so swollen...
Chapter completed!
