MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 170 I like a good dad
Chapter 170: I like a good father
Qin Yao was awakened by the smell of food.
I got up and took a look, oh, there were three dishes and one soup on the dining table in the main room, and there was the sound of cooking in the kitchen. Is this celebrating the New Year in advance?
"Madam, you're awake." Liu Ji greeted her warmly, reminding her to wash up with warm water. "The rice is already cooked. If you're hungry, we'll start cooking right away. I'll finish frying these meatballs first, and you guys will eat first. "
Qin Yao yawned and asked subconsciously: "Why are you making fried meatballs?"
“It’s the Chinese New Year, so prepare in advance. Don’t you love hot pot? I asked Dalang to go to Sister-in-law Zhou’s house to buy tofu. Then I will make a big bone soup base and the tofu will be delicious.”
Qin Yao stretched out her finger to poke Erlang, who was lying on the empty seat at the dinner table practicing calligraphy, "Your father was lowered?"
Suddenly became so diligent and sensible?
Liu Ji also did housework and cooking before, but it was like poking and hopping about a toad.
"Wait a moment."
We were about to go through the whole village, and we wanted to see where Liu Ji was going to buy some vegetables.
The delicious food made the mother and son so frightened that they all gave Liu Ji a thumbs up.
Liu Ji remembered that last night she said that keeping the soap recipe would be useful. Today, she did not celebrate the Chinese New Year and had to go into the mountains to buy new year's goods. She tentatively asked:
“Who are you giving this New Year’s gift to?”
Liu Ji thought she said it very late, at most in the middle of the night.
Si Niang said something like she understood, then turned around and glanced into the kitchen through the crack in the main room door. The corners of her mouth were raised, and her chubby cheeks were propped up, "Where is Si Niang's favorite daddy~"
Meatballs must be fried crispy on the outside and tender on the inside to be considered a qualified meatball.
Erlang immediately stood in front of Qin Yao and forced him to retreat.
“Aniang, if daddy gets better, please stop beating him, okay?” Siniang blinked her innocent eyes and begged seriously.
Erlang did not embarrass him. He opened the lock and took out the jar, and gave him fifty cash.
Qin Yao didn't answer, she naturally had her own ideas.
But it seems that Dad has really become different.
Erlang agreed, packed up his pen, ink, paper and inkstone, took them back to his room, put away his things and woke up the twins.
It’s delicious, so why not make the kids happy? He nodded and said:
The most abundant thing in the house is meat, fresh pork belly, big bone sticks, and short ribs, which are filled with a long table-like chopping board.
A dead mountain deer, two half-dead gray rabbits, and a skinny, tightly tied wild goat.
Liu Ji raised his hand as if to give him a slap, and then Erlang's mouth stopped.
As he spoke, he pointed to the water on the washstand and the toothbrush where the tooth powder had been put in advance, "When I heard any movement in your room, I ran over and prepared it in advance. I was very attentive."
Qin Yao nodded, "Of course I can."
Erlang twitched the corners of his lips and gave an "I don't understand" smile, "He's been like this since he woke up early in the morning. Maybe he's really possessed."
Qin Yao walked over and touched the water. The temperature was just right. It was relatively hot, but not hot. It was not very comfortable to wash your face with such hot water in winter.
The implication is that it is not that she likes to beat people, but that some people seek beatings on their own.
Qin Yao glanced at him impatiently, and just when Liu Ji thought she wouldn't answer, she said calmly: "The old lady of the Ding family gets cold in her knees in winter and needs a good pair of knee pads."
Sanlang and Siniang, who got up late, watched their biological father walk into the kitchen as if they had seen a ghost. Sanlang rubbed his eyes and said, "Aniang, I dreamed that my father has gotten better."
Liu Jiwen smiled virtuously and said, "If it's delicious, eat more. You eat first, and I'll go to the kitchen and watch the heat."
The weather is cold, so it can be stored for several days. It will be no problem to eat it until the Chinese New Year. There are not many vegetables left in the house, and the little land Qin Yao serves is not enough to cover the family's consumption. Now there are only two baskets of large white radishes that Qin Yao just collected from the field in the yard.
After saying that, he picked up the rice bowl and went to the kitchen.
The old father in the kitchen, who had his back to everyone, moved his hands and his heart trembled.
"I may come back very late. Please urge the four brothers and sisters to go to bed early. Studying at night is not good for your eyes." After saying this, he watched Liu Jitong, Grandma Wang, and his grandson buy two handfuls of vegetables. Qin Yao waved her hand and went in. Mountain.
Else why would she want to please an old lady?
Liu Ji rubbed his hands and took another breath. White mist rose. "It's such a cold day. Is there any leather you want in the mountains?"
It’s still dark, so it’s night, right?
Qin Yao dropped the things on her shoulders to the open space in the yard with a bang.
Qin Yao was chewing on the sauce-flavored pork ribs, and with a flick of her chopsticks, she put a big mouthful of white rice into her mouth. The chewy texture of the rice mixed with the sauce-flavored meat, it was so delicious that she wanted to cry.
After Qin Yao finished washing, Liu Ji rushed in, snatched the washbasin from her hand, took out the water and poured it into the ditch, then put it back and laughed: "I'll serve the rice, Erlang, you go and call." Sanlang and Si Niang fell asleep and fell into a coma. "
“It’s outrageous to talk to your father like this.” Liu Ji whispered in Erlang’s ear.
The oil in the pan splashed out and burned the back of his hands. Only then did he come to his senses and continue fishing for meatballs.
Unexpectedly, I didn’t come back until the morning of the next day.
Liu Ji thought that it would be better to eat meat during the Chinese New Year, so he felt uncomfortable and came to Erlang to get money to buy vegetables.
Dalang bought the tofu, the bowls and chopsticks were all set, and the family of six sat together to eat.
Liu Ji then remembered that the Ding family's clan school seemed to be almost completed.
He pretended to be calm and turned around, only to realize that she was also going out.
"Madam, where are you going?" Liu Ji asked curiously, looking at the rope and bow and arrow in Qin Yao's hand.
Now I actually know how to use my subjective initiative!
As soon as Liu Jigang stepped out of the door, Qin Yao called out. He was thinking about how to withhold a few cents of food money to build a private house. His heart suddenly thumped, and he almost thought that Qin Yao had seen through his inner thoughts.
“Don’t worry, Si Niang, every beating your father receives is caused by himself.”
But he had one request: whatever vegetables he bought, as well as a few cents per pound, he had to be reported to him.
Knee pads made of deerskin and hare skin sandwiched together are the best way to keep warm from the cold.
Children are sleepy, especially in winter, and cannot get up even if no one calls them.
"Is it about Dalang and Erlang going to school? Can the old lady have the final say?"
Qin Yao looked at the mountains in the distance and said, "Go into the mountains to get some New Year's goods."
If you want to fry the meatballs deliciously, you must control the heat. If they are deep-fried, they will become hard. If they are shallow-fried, the meat inside will be undercooked and it will easily spoil your stomach.
Siniang raised her hand and hit the younger brother on the head, "Idiot, this is not a dream!"
After breakfast, Liu Ji also finished frying the meatballs. He first took out a bowl for the children at home to eat, and covered the rest with a piece of gauze and put it in the cupboard for easy access when he wanted to eat.
with the help of her mother-in-law Zhang, she only paid a few dozen yuan for the seeds.
This wild goat was a pure accident. She passed a bush when she went down the mountain. This stupid goat stuck its head in the bush and couldn't get out even by kicking its legs.
How could Qin Yao let go of such a good thing?
I rushed forward immediately and brought him home. Isn’t this the main dish for the Chinese New Year?
