Of the fish that she had caught yesterday, she had kept the two big ones and cooked the rest.
The fish were braised in soy sauce. After a while, water was added to cover the fish. She added some chili, onion, ginger, garlic, and pepper as seasonings.
Finally, she beat two eggs into it.
This was actually fish soup, but it was not the milky white kind. Instead, it was braised with soy sauce. This kind of fish soup went especially well with rice.
There was no steamed rice, just pancakes. It would taste better with pancakes around the pot of fish soup.
There was quite a lot of fish, so it took two pots to finish all of it.
When Gu Chonghua, Wen Ruyu, and Gu Yunshen came back, they could smell the fragrance in the yard.
"It smells so good! What is this child doing? She's making lunch at this time? "Gu Chonghua asked.
Grandma Wen Ruyu went to the kitchen to take a look. "Yaoyao! What are you doing? "
Gu Qingyao saw that they were all back and smiled. "Grandma, it's time to eat. I made fish soup and pancakes. Go wash up and eat!"
In order to save food, farmers did not eat in the morning and ate earlier in the afternoon. It was nothing strange.
They washed up and set up the table. Gu Qingyao had already scooped out the fish soup. It was fragrant and looked very appetizing.
Their appetites were whetted and they all started eating.
Gu Chonghua ate a small fish and squinted his eyes in enjoyment. "Mmm! Yaoyao, how did you make it? It tastes so good. This is called eating! "
He used to be the young master of a landlord family and ate well. It was a pity that he had encountered such a world and could only barely fill his stomach.
Wen Ruyu drank a mouthful of soup and also thought that it tasted great!
It was especially fresh!
Gu Qingyao smiled. She had used all kinds of seasonings, including oil and salt. Of course, it was delicious.
"Grandpa, Grandma, eat more. I've made all the fish. Those in the pot will be given to the grandpas and grandmas in the cowshed."
There were nine old people in the cowshed. They all lived in the straw hut next to the cowshed. They were all old people who had been demoted. Their lives were much worse than the Gu family's.
They were all very knowledgeable old people. Many of them were prominent figures in the industry. Gu Qingyao had learned from these old men since she was young, but she learned it secretly.
Gu Chonghua nodded and did not object.
Everyone quickly finished eating. Gu Qingyao went to wash the dishes. Gu Yunshen brought the dry rations to the mountain to pick herbs. Gu Chonghua and Wen Ruyu, who could not stay idle, went to the private plot of land to tend to the vegetables.
Gu Qingyao poured all the fish soup in the pot into a jar, covered it with a lid, and carried it to the cowshed.
Although the cowshed was called a cowshed, in fact, there were more than just cows here. There were also some pigs, chickens, ducks, and geese, all of which were taken care of by these old men and women.
When Gu Qingyao arrived, several elders were preparing lunch.
When they saw Gu Qingyao, they all smiled. "Yaoyao, you're here!"
Gu Qingyao greeted everyone with a smile. When she saw her teacher, Zhou Bingsheng, she walked over with a smile and said, "Teacher, I brought you delicious food!"
Zhou Bingsheng was a famous painter in the country. It could be said that he was a prominent figure in the art world. He had been demoted to the cowshed for nine years. He was one of the older people who suffered early because his family was also a landlord.
Gu Qingyao began learning painting and calligraphy from him when she was six years old. This old man was very fond of her.
When he heard that there was delicious food, Zhou Bingsheng smiled. He put down his basket, which contained the pigweed, and quickly went to wash his hands with a smile.
