Chapter 512 Eating Snake Meat
At first, when everyone heard that it was snake meat, they were reluctant to eat it. But after it was cooked, each one tasted more delicious than the other.
Wang Lin teased Li Si, "Who said just now that we don't eat snake meat for dinner? Why are you eating so happily now?"
Li Si was not annoyed, and said with a smile, "I'm telling you what I'm telling you, I just couldn't help myself because you guys were eating so deliciously.
Who would have thought that snake meat would be so delicious, the meat is so tender and fresh, and the taste is really good."
Zhu Chunfeng continued, "This snake looks scary when it's alive, but it looks okay after the skin is removed and processed. The cooked snake meat looks like fish, so it's not scary anymore."
Mrs. Ma also said, "Yes, yes, yes. After it is cooked, it is not much different from other meats. As long as you don't think of it as snake meat, it tastes delicious."
A few girls who were originally afraid to eat it, after hearing everyone say it was delicious, took some with their bowls. After taking a bite, they stopped talking and just buried their heads in eating.
This was not the first time Xu Han had eaten snake meat. As long as the snake meat was well-prepared, she had no psychological burden at all when eating it. Instead, she enjoyed it very much.
Ze'er and Mu'er were not afraid either. The two little foodies didn't care about that and ate with relish.
As for the Taoist priest, Grandpa Zhao and Lu Chuan, they were not afraid at all and they all loved eating.
After dinner, Xu Han called Dan Niang and the three little girls, told them that they didn’t have to work in the fields tomorrow, and asked them to follow her to make mooncakes.
Hearing this, the four of them nodded and responded, "Yes, Madam, we will come tomorrow."
Xu Han turned to Zhou and said, "This morning, I pulled out some of the vegetables in the garden, but there are still many left. Tomorrow morning, you should clean up the garden first and have Zhu Qiang and the others turn the soil so that you can plant the vegetables in the afternoon."
"Okay, ma'am, we'll get it done early tomorrow morning. With more people, it will be done faster. We'll have it done in the morning."
Zhu Qiang at the side also echoed, "Madam, don't worry. All the potatoes in the field have been harvested today. I will go and fetch some manure tomorrow morning. There is not much land in the vegetable garden, so the land can be turned over at noon, so it won't delay planting vegetables in the afternoon."
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. You can handle it yourself!"
After giving the instructions, the rest of the people went back to the valley together.
At night, Xu Han lay on the bed and asked Lu Chuan to give her a massage.
Lu Chuan complained, "Look at you, you can't even enjoy the blessing. There are so many people in the field, and you are the only one missing. Now let's see how you can get up tomorrow."
I haven't done physical work for a long time. I pulled up the vegetable racks in the morning and dug potatoes in the afternoon. I worked all day. As a result, I exerted too much force and knocked Xu Han down.
Xu Han retorted in a low voice, "I used to work every day and it was fine. How long has it been since I last rested? Who knew that I would be so exhausted after just one day's work?
My whole body aches, especially my thighs are stiff. Can you help me massage them? "
After Xu Han finished speaking, she turned over and lay directly on the bed, letting Lu Chuan give her a massage.
Although Lu Chuan was harsh in his words, he was worried about his wife and kept talking while massaging her.
Xu Han knew that she was in the wrong, so she didn't refute and let Lu Chuan talk nonstop. In the end, when Lu Chuan saw that Xu Han didn't say anything, he stopped talking too. Maybe she was too tired from working during the day, and Xu Han fell asleep while he was massaging her.
Lu Chuan glanced at his wife who was already fast asleep, sighed, silently covered Xu Han with a quilt, and lay down to sleep himself.
The next morning, when Xu Han woke up, she still felt sore all over. It even felt worse than yesterday because she had rested all night.
But thinking that I would start making mooncakes today, I struggled to get up.
When Xu Han came out, Dan Niang was already waiting in the yard with a few girls.
When the four saw Xu Han coming out, they all stood up. Dan Niang said, "Madam, we don't know how to make the mooncakes you mentioned, so we haven't started preparing anything yet!"
Xu Han waved her hand and said, "It's very simple. Chunmei, go clean the oven first. Chunchan, go get some salted duck eggs and beat the egg yolks out.
Qi Yu, go prepare some flour, Dan Niang, go get some firewood, I'm going to have breakfast first, and we'll start cooking after breakfast."
Because she makes mooncakes every year, Xu Han is now very familiar with the steps of making mooncakes.
With so many people helping her, the speed increased a lot. Xu Han directed everyone to do different tasks and made a lot of mooncakes in just the morning.
In the afternoon, everyone continued to make mooncakes while baking them.
We spent the whole day making a lot of mooncakes, enough for several meals.
During dinner, Xu Han took out some freshly baked mooncakes and handed them to everyone to taste.
Xu Han said, "Today I made many different flavors of mooncakes. I took out some of each. You just had dinner, so you can't eat much right now.
Chunchan, go cut the mooncakes into four pieces and let everyone taste each flavor to see which one tastes better. "
Chunchan responded, took the mooncake and went to the kitchen. When she came out again, the mooncake had been cut.
Everyone took a small piece and started eating.
Qi Yu said, "I think the chestnut ones are better. They are sticky, sweet and delicious."
Zhu Chuntian said, "Salted egg yolk mooncakes are better. This is my first time eating this kind of mooncake. It's really fragrant and delicious."
Zhu Chunfeng on the side said, "This is the first time I've eaten this kind of mooncake! Where have you eaten something this good before? Let alone you, this is my first time eating mooncakes."
Zhu Qiang said, "Don't talk about you, it's the first time for me to eat it."
Everyone found the conversation between the father and his two sons very interesting, and the yard was filled with laughter for a while.
Dan Niang took a bite of the mooncake and said, "This is the first time I've eaten this kind of mooncake. The mooncakes I've eaten before were very hard and hard to bite. I've never seen a mooncake like this before."
Xu Han pointed to the snowy mooncake and said, "Try this one. This one is not baked. The taste and texture are different."
Upon hearing this, everyone took a piece and sighed again after eating it.
The Taoist priest, Grandpa Zhao, Lu Chuan and the children were no longer surprised by the mooncakes made by Xu Han. As soon as the mooncakes were served, they all reached out for their favorite flavors.
He didn't join in the discussion while everyone was discussing it, just ate the mooncake in his hand.
After everyone finished eating, Xu Han said, "Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I declare that everyone will have a day off tomorrow. You all should have a good rest and don't have to work tomorrow.
In the afternoon, we will celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in the valley and have a fire-cooked meal. "
