Chapter 407 A Distinguished Guest Visits 1
After dinner, the snow got heavier.
Feng Qingxue urged the old man and the children to go to bed early, while she and Lu Jiang were in the kitchen stewing pig heads and pig intestines. Xibao had already fallen asleep, lying in the cradle in front of the stove, covered with his own quilt.
The firelight reflected on Xibao's rosy cheeks, like a ripe apple.
Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue were worried about leaving a small child in the bedroom without anyone to watch him, so they had to bring him with them. Fortunately, the kitchen was burning and it was very warm in front of the stove, so they were not afraid of freezing him.
"Xibao is so well-behaved when he is asleep!" Lu Jiang lay on the edge of the cradle, wishing he could take a few bites to show his closeness.
Feng Qingxue added two pieces of firewood to the stove, stood up, opened the pot lid, skimmed off the foam, fished out the pig heads and pig intestines, and while washing the pot, she said proudly: "He called me mom today, and I was the first person to call!"
When the word "mom" was heard in his ears, the most beautiful words in the world could not describe the satisfaction at that time.
Mother and child are connected by heart. Only at this moment did she understand that feeling. She only felt pain when she gave birth to him.
"What? He called you mom? When did it happen? Why didn't he call me dad?" Lu Jiang was extremely envious. He stared at his fat son who was sleeping soundly and swore: "Tomorrow I will ask you to call me dad, for sure!"
The little guy's response was to fall asleep.
"I wish you all the best!" If it was so easy for him to succeed, Xibao would not be Xibao.
Feng Qingxue said with a smile, washed off some foam on the pig head and pig intestines, then fried some rock sugar in the pot with oil, added water, put in the pig head and pig intestines, and gradually poured in soy sauce, salt and cooking wine, and finally put in the seasoning bag.
The seasoning bag made of fine gauze contained pepper, star anise, cloves, cinnamon, grass fruit, onion, ginger, fennel and other things.
Bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat.
It was late at night and no one could smell the strong aroma. Besides, it was snowing heavily and no one was walking by.
"What a nice smell!" Lu Jiang swallowed his saliva.
After stewing until it was cooked, Feng Qingxue stopped the fire, "I will cook a few good dishes at noon tomorrow. Invite your uncle, second uncle, third uncle and uncle-in-law to have a drink. Didn't I buy two bottles of wine and two packs of cigarettes today? Invite them to get together and talk before you go back to the army. Also invite your aunt, second aunt, third aunt and aunt. You guys will have one table and we will have one table."
After saying that, Feng Qingxue took out a bag of spiced peanuts from the space like a magic trick, and a piece of pork belly appeared in the bucket of ice under the eaves. The things they brought had not been seen by anyone other than the couple, so taking out some supplies now would not arouse any suspicion.
"Don't take out things that have not appeared yet." Lu Jiang couldn't help but remind him.
"Got it, housekeeper!" Feng Qingxue understood this principle better than anyone else. Now outsiders could hardly see the supplies in her space. The food she gave to her family was mixed in the packages sent by her comrades, or was available on the market. Just like today, she mixed some things from her space with the things she bought, and no one in her family would suspect it.
She took out two bananas, one for Lu Jiang and one for herself. While peeling the bananas, she said, "Get up early tomorrow and break the pork leg bones to make soup so that we can make noodles for Xibao."
"Don't worry, I won't forget." Xibao is the little ancestor of the family. No one can let him down.
