Chapter 1153 Boiled cabbage

Xia Mingxing performed very quickly, handled the ingredients needed for the New Year’s Eve dinner, started frying croquettes, and frying pineapples and marinades.

All of them were prepared in advance by Li Xiuhong and Xia’s mother.

There is also a bucket of small fish that has been processed very cleanly and is covered with batter and is waiting to be put into the pot.

The hemp leaves are made of glutinous rice flour, with black and white sesame seeds sprinkled on them. After drying, they are fryed with oil and quickly turn yellow. The rich aroma fills the sky above the courtyard. Li Xingxing smells the smell and finds them, "Brother Xiaoxia, what delicious food do you make?"

"There is chicken soup." Xia Mingxing raised her hand and put it in her bowl, took a big chicken leg and put it in the bowl, "Drink it after cooling."

Li Xingxing didn't look at the pot, but only sniffed the smell, "It's not just chicken soup, right? It seems that there is the umami flavor of ham inside."

"You have a good nose." Xia Mingxing praised her eyes, "Eat boiled cabbage tonight."

Li Xingxing cheered: "That's great!"

Then a little doubt arose: "Boiled cabbage is a kung fu dish. You need to use chicken, duck ham and pork ribs to make soup. Duck is used to make eight-treasure duck. Are there any ingredients?"

Li Xiuhong couldn't help but say, "Xingxing, you have really studied what you eat."

Xia’s mother smiled and said to Li Xingxing: “When you were sleeping, the supply department sent your father the Spring Festival supply. In addition to tobacco, fruits, candy and cakes, chickens, ducks and fish, you can cook fish. Do you want to eat braised carp or sweet and sour carp? I think the carp sent is very good, lively and the meat must be good.”

"Sweet and Sour Carp!" Li Xingxing blurted out.

I've been particularly fond of sour, sweet and appetizing foods recently.

Xia Mingxing immediately said: "Then make sweet and sour carp, boiled cabbage, Wensi tofu, braised lion's head."

"Is it just like all the same?" Li Xingxing felt that it was not enough to eat.

"Of course there are other things." Xia Mingxing then read out a string of menus, and as I wish, he saw the beauty blooming on Li Xingxing's face, as gorgeous and bright as the colorful clouds in the sky.

Xia Mingxing was in a state of turmoil and almost forgot to fish out the fried hemp leaves.

Li Xingxing reminded him, "Although I can't eat fried food, you can't be careless!"

Xia Mingxing quickly picked up the lid and took out the hemp leaves. Xia’s mother next to her was puzzled: “Why can’t you eat fried food? The fried food is all fried, with enough oil and water, and is nutritious.”

If any pregnant woman can eat fried food every meal, she will be so beautiful that she can reach the sky.

Li Xiuhong came back early, so she understood this a little, explaining: "Xingxing said that fried foods will produce a substance that is not good for pregnant women and fetus during the frying process. She also said that fried foods have no other nutrition except fat and can also suppress appetite, because fried foods are easy to feel full and cannot eat other nutritious foods after eating. I don't understand her very much, but she reads a lot and has a wide range of knowledge. It seems that it makes sense, but our family is not short of oil or water anyway."

Before Xingxing came back, fried food was also a rare delicacy for her. She could eat it less than one or two times a year. She only had the opportunity to enjoy it during the Chinese New Year and cherish it every time she ate it.

Now?

She often eats rice, white flour, chicken, fish, meat and eggs, and she doesn't eat fried foods anymore.

After hearing Li Xiuhong's words, Xia's mother immediately said, "Since it's not good, we won't eat it. Xingxing, you should drink the soup, eat the chicken legs, slap your stomach, and eat better at night."

Li Xingxing promised to be very straightforward.

When she saw Xia Qinghui coming in from outside, she called Xia Mingxing: "Brother Xiaoxia, take that chicken leg to Qinghui."

Without waiting for Xia Mingxing to agree, Xia Qinghui waved his hand first, "Auntie, I just ate meatballs and ate it. Now I don't want to eat anything. You should drink soup and meat quickly and supplement nutrition for your younger brother and sister."

Li Xingxing couldn't help but praise him: "Good boy!"

Xia Mingqi’s ideas can make people understand, how could Lin Lan ignore his son?
