Yaya immediately became happy when she heard this and held on to Fang Nuo.
"Okay, can I take you with me?" Fang Nuo agreed with a smile, knowing that she didn't want to put her in the house.
After putting on Yaya's shoes, he carried her off the kang and went out of the house to the kitchen. He took out the small space bed as usual and let her sit on it and play, while Fang Nuo turned on the stove and started cooking noodles.
She first prepared the noodle soup base, cooked her special carrot and vegetable noodles for Yaya, added some shrimp paste that she chopped, cooked it and fished it out, put some walnut oil for her, and some special ingredients for babies. small amount of salt.
After cooking it for Yaya, she put it aside to cool down for a while. She scooped the soup base into a large bowl, boiled some water, and cooked a bowl of noodles for herself.
After cooking, he carried Yaya back to the room and sat on the kang, then came back and brought over two bowls of noodles.
Put Yaya to sit and feed her while she eats.
The two of them had just eaten for a while when Aunt Dahua came over.
"Xiao Nuo, are you at home?"
"Yes, Auntie, come in and sit down quickly," Fang Nuo replied.
Aunt Dahua opened the door and came in. When she saw the two of them eating, she said, "I just ate."
"Well, it's not that Yaya just woke up. She wanted to eat noodles. I thought that no one was too lazy to open the fire again, so I cooked a bowl and ate it together for dinner. Has your sister-in-law eaten it? If not, just eat it here. "Fang Nuo said and asked.
"No, I'm here to get the pickled fish ingredients you prepared for me," Aunt Dahua said.
"This, I've prepared it. Auntie, just take it back and marinate it for five hours. Then take it out with water and wash off the remaining salt grains on it, then string it up with a rope and hang it in the air to dry the surface. When the time comes, you are going to add some fruit wood, burn it underneath, and then marinate and smoke it for two or three days," Fang Nuo said.
"Is it that simple?" Aunt Dahua asked
"Yes, it's that simple. I made it according to the method of making cured meat in my hometown. I don't know if it's the same as other places," Fang Nuo said.
"Okay, I'll go back and marinate it right now, wash it out and hang it up before going to bed. It should be almost dry after one night of air drying," said Aunt Dahua.
"Okay, I'll get you the marinade right now," Fang Nuo said, put on his shoes and got off the kang, and went to the kitchen to bring a prepared pack of fried salt to Aunt Dahua.
"Okay, you keep this dollar. It's money for the marinade. You continue eating, and I'll go back first." Aunt Dahua took the things, put the dollar on the table, and walked out of the house quickly after speaking. .
Fang Nuo quickly picked up a dollar and chased her out. Seeing that Aunt Dahua was about to leave the hospital, she quickly shouted: "Auntie, you gave me too much. Most of the marinades are salt, so we don't need so much."
"Not much. Didn't you help prepare this? And you also taught me how to make the cured fish. I should give you these." Aunt Dahua replied, but she didn't stop at all. At this time, she was already I have been out for a while.
Fang Nuo couldn't call anyone back, so he had to accept the money, close the courtyard door, and go back to the house to continue eating noodles.
Yaya saw that she was back and wanted the money in her hand.
Fang Nuo picked out a relatively new one from the space and showed it to her, then got on the kang and continued eating noodles, feeding Yaya a mouthful from time to time.
After the mother and daughter had finished eating, Fang Nuo put Yaya on his back and went to the kitchen to wash the marinated fish with water, string it on a rope, use bamboo slices to push the fish open from the belly, and step on it on a bench. It passed over the bamboo pole hanging on the beam.
She made them herself and for Shen Gongqi. She used different colored ropes to string them together, so it would be easier to divide them later.
After hanging up all the fish, all the small fish and shrimps over there were drained of water. Fang Nuo kept half of it to fry and eat, and the remaining half was sent to the drying box in the space to be dried into dried fish. , dried shrimp.
Putting things in the space to bake, she didn't have to worry about it, she just had to wait to take them out tomorrow.
After finishing the work, I took Yaya back to the room, added some firewood to the kang stove, closed the doors and windows of the house, and took Yaya into the space.
In the evening, the mother and daughter took a good bath in the space before coming out to rest.
Now that Yaya has slowly learned to speak, Fang Nuo spends less time bringing her into the space, and he no longer puts her in the space alone.
When taking a bath, she was worried that it would be too troublesome to take a bath outside in the winter. She was also afraid that Yaya would catch a cold, so she took her into the space to wash.
After the spring of next year, she decided not to bring Yaya into the space anymore. She also tried her best to enter the space when the child was asleep, and started to avoid the child when taking things. Now that she is still young, the time is long. I don’t remember these things anymore.
Otherwise, she would be afraid that she might see something new and tell it in front of outsiders.
When she got up the next morning, she checked the moisture on the surface of the fish and found that it was almost dry. In the corner of the kitchen, she made a cone-shaped cover with cut plastic cloth, and inside it was hung from the beam. A rope was pulled down, and an iron hook was hung at the bottom.
Hang the dried fish on the hook, cover it with a conical plastic cloth, and then use fruit wood to burn a fire underneath. The fire should not be too big, as long as it is burning, the main thing is to remove the smoke. Smoked dried fish.
She covered the smoke inside with a plastic sheet and stayed here during the day to prevent the fire from burning the plastic sheet.
In this way, the smoked fish in her kitchen was smoked for three consecutive days. She checked that the fish was almost smoked before putting out the fire. She waited until the heat inside had dissipated and the fish was cold before putting it out. The plastic cover was removed, and my fish was hung back on the bamboo pole.
Shen Gongqi's family took it off, wrapped it in newspapers, and put it in a basket.
She went to pack two more homemade sauerkraut, and some more pickles, one by one.
He carried it back to the house, put Yaya on his back, and then took advantage of the fact that it wasn't snowing outside to carry the things to the small courtyard on the mountainside where Shen Gongqi lived.
Fortunately, the road up the mountain seemed to have been cleared, so she didn't have a hard time walking.
This was her first time coming to this small courtyard. It looked much worse than hers. Even the walls around the courtyard were simply made of tree branches. The house also had two rooms, but It looked much smaller than her house, with a thatched roof.
She walked to the door of the courtyard and shouted inside: "Is Comrade Shen home?"
After a while, Shen Gongqi was seen walking out of the house. When he saw her coming, he quickly walked behind the courtyard door, opened the courtyard door and said, "Fang Zhiqing, who are you?"
"Ah... isn't this the fish you asked me to cook? I saw it wasn't snowing, so I brought it to you. Take a look and see if it's the same as the smoked fish you mentioned." Fang Nuoti said Said the basket
Shen Gongqi heard what she said at the time, and it was similar to what his mother had done before.
But after hearing what Fang Nuo said, he opened the oil paper and looked at it in front of her. When he saw the cured fish inside, he was sure that it was the cured meat from his hometown that his parents had mentioned before, so he said, "Yes, thank you Fang Zhiqing."
