Hearing the movement, Bajin raised his head and saw Yan Mingkuan with a smile on his face.

Yan Mingkuan, the son of Yan Shixian, just got married last year and is now eighteen years old.

Yan Mingkuan was a little lazy, he didn't have much work to do on weekdays, and occasionally came to the natural residence to take a look, but he just took a look, and then went home, either walking birds or teasing dogs.

Yan Shixian was a little dissatisfied with Yan Mingkuan's idleness, especially after starting a family, he often urged him to make some living to support his family, but Yan Mingkuan's words to Yan Shixian were mostly in the left ear and out of the right ear, which was not the same thing.

Yan Shixian has beaten and scolded, but it has never had any effect, and now, the old lady is seriously ill, and she is busy preparing for this hot pot restaurant here, Yan Shixian has no time and energy to care about Yan Mingkuan's affairs.

And Yan Mingkuan is also happy, and he hasn't fallen into this natural house for a long time.

Therefore, Bajin may not have seen Yan Mingkuan for a long time, and it is very strange to see him today: "Why are you here?" ”

"I heard that my dad has been busy these days and can't take a break, so I'll come over and see if there's anything I need help with." Yan Mingkuan said with a smile.

Because he smiled too widely, his eyes were squeezed into a thin slit by the flesh on his face.

Yan Shixian was thin, but this Yan Mingkuan didn't follow him, but he was very obese, but he was not white, black and fat, and when he laughed, it looked a little funny.

Bajin couldn't help but smile.

This is the appearance of laughing Yan Mingkuan's laughter, and the second is what Yan Mingkuan said just now.

No one knows about the natural residence, who doesn't know that Yan Mingkuan is the most lazy on weekdays, Yan Shixian usually urges him, he still refuses to learn to take care of the affairs of this natural residence, but today he said to see what can be helped, how can Bajin feel as if he heard a very funny joke.

And while laughing, he looked up at the sun in the sky.

"What do you see?" Yan Mingkuan saw Bajin looking at himself and laughing, and then looked at the sky and smiled, he was immediately very curious, and he also looked at the sky, but he didn't see anything wrong in the sky.

I had no choice but to rub my neck, which was a little pantothenic because of my back, and asked puzzledly: "There's nothing in the sky, why do you keep looking at eight catties, what are you looking at?" ”

Bajin grinned: "I'm looking at the sun." ”

"See if the sun goes down from the east or from the west." Bajin pointed to the sun and said with a wink.

As soon as Yan Mingkuan heard this, his face immediately turned cold.

When these eight catties say this, they clearly want to say that he came to this natural dwelling today, and the sun came out in the west!

Whether he did well or not, Yan Shixian can say, others can't say, even if he doesn't do it well, how can it not be the turn of this guy to talk about him sneeringly.

It's just the death star of his father who picked up his father's mother, and the big guy raised you so big, but no matter how you say it, you are a buddy, and you really don't treat yourself as an outsider?

Yan Mingkuan glared at Bajin and said, "The sun will set from wherever it should be, and it can't be changed, just like I am my father's son, this will not change." ”

The implication of this is that no matter what he does badly, then he is also a natural and solid shopkeeper, and Bajin you are just a guy, where is the qualification to dictate him, the young shopkeeper?

Yan Mingkuan snorted coldly, and didn't want to pay attention to the eight catties, but only asked, "Where is my father?" ”

Bajin also snorted, but still stretched out his finger and pointed: "Talking to Uncle He inside." ”

"Got it." Yan Mingkuan glanced at Bajin, snorted coldly, and then went over there.

Bajin stayed in place for a short time before he walked out of the backyard with his head down.

By the time I got home, the sun had completely set.

Although there is no light of the sun, the sky is still very bright as soon as the sun sets, especially the fiery red clouds dyed by the afterglow in the west, which illuminates half of the sky and appears brighter.

Shen Xiangmiao stepped into the courtyard with the golden light, and before she could open her mouth to call someone, Lu Shi greeted her and said with a smile: "You are back, we have been waiting for a long time and we haven't seen you come back, and we are worried." ”

"What's worried?" Shen Xiangmiao was a little surprised.

And looking at Lu's face full of smiles, it doesn't look like hesitation.

"Come and see." Lu Shi smiled and talked as he pulled Shen Xiangmiao into the stove room, pointing to the things on the desk and showing Shen Xiangmiao.

On the desk, it is not on the side, but several large pieces of meat, and the weight is not light, it has to have a dozen catties.

Originally, the meat was not unusual, but the meat was thick and compact, and the amount of fat was small, and the fat was pale milky yellow compared to pork, and the meat smelled ......

After Shen Xiangmiao sniffled, she exclaimed, "This is beef?" ”

"Yes." Lu Shi smiled and nodded.

At this moment, Shen Xiangmiao became more and more strange.

In this era, great attention was paid to the cultivation of farmland, and the law strictly stipulated that cattle should not be slaughtered at will, so this beef was very rare, and even the powerful did not dare to take such a risk to eat beef, which made it more and more valuable.

But right now, there is not only beef, but also more than ten catties, which is incredible.

"This beef, is Feng shopkeeper let Dali specially sent, said that it happened that there was a family in their village of the cattle, in the river when eating grass and drinking water accidentally fell into the river and drowned, this is killed to sell meat, Feng shopkeeper learned about this, so he bought it at a high price, and remembered that you did a good job of marinated meat, specially selected tendon meat, said that it was for you to make some braised beef or something, you can also taste fresh." Lu explained.

I see.

Ploughing cattle are not allowed to be slaughtered, but there are unforeseen circumstances, if it is sick and dead, old death, and accident death, the cow can be slaughtered and eaten meat, but in this case, it is going to try luck.

"That being the case." Shen Xiangmiao looked at the meat on the desk, it was indeed tendon meat, and there was a good piece of beef brisket, so she smiled and said: "The tendon meat will be made into five-spice braised beef, as for the beef brisket...... Let's make a tomato stew. ”

"Done." Lu nodded.

Before dinner, Shen Xiangmiao thought about making tomato stewed beef brisket in the evening, and then making the spiced braised beef after eating, so that when she got up tomorrow morning, she could give the braised beef to everyone to taste.

Wash and soak the blood water and cut it into pieces, add ginger, peppercorns, and cooking wine to the boiling water to remove the blood foam, put it into the pot of fragrant ginger slices and green onions, and fry until the meat surface is browned and shrinked, add water and boil to skim off the foam, and slowly simmer for almost an hour, and the beef brisket will be stewed.
