The person next to him said, "You don't know, but it's not just the Gu family's children and grandchildren who sent it back. Even the ones sent by Mo Beihan were taken home by Zhang Xiaohui. When I passed by the Zhang family two days ago, they were cooking meat! It smelled so good! Later, I heard from Chen Goudan that Mo Beihan happened to come across some pork ribs when he came back from the city, so he bought some and gave some to the Gu family. The day I saw the Zhang family eating meat was the day after Mo Beihan came back. Zhang Xiaohui was at the Zhang family's house then! She must have taken it back. "
The person next to him shook his head. "The Zhang family is famous for being lazy and gluttonous. They're practically relying on the Gu family!"
"Isn't that so? The Gu family has been treating us all these years. Compared to … "
He wanted to say that they were much better than the Zhang family, but in this day and age, he didn't dare to say so. After all, the Gu family was a big landlord …
The two of them looked at each other, shook their heads, and left.
At the Gu family's house, Mo Beihan, Old Master Gu Chonghua, and the Zhang family were together in the living room. The Zhang family wanted to get close to Mo Beihan, but Mo Beihan closed his eyes and rested after entering the room, completely ignoring the Zhang family.
He was someone who had been on the battlefield. Once he released his aura, how could the Zhang family withstand it? All of them obediently kept quiet.
Gu Chonghua was also relieved.
In the kitchen, Gu Qingyao was preparing dinner.
The main dish was cornmeal porridge and pancakes with wild vegetables. It was normal for farmers to eat these.
However, there were many people, so there were many pancakes. This time, she wouldn't skimp on the food. Instead, she would let the Zhang family eat their fill.
The wild vegetables were mixed in with the black flour. Gu Qingyao added some seasoning to the wild vegetables to make it taste better. There were more than ten people, so Gu Qingyao made more than forty pancakes and cooked a big pot of cornmeal porridge.
Then, it was time for the dishes.
This time, she wasn't stingy at all. She stewed the entire rabbit, leaving nothing behind.
The radishes had already grown out, but they were not very big at this time. However, some of the bigger ones were cut and stewed with the rabbit meat. With chili, scallion, and ginger, the taste was very good.
What was left was the big fish. He directly chopped it up and braised half of the fish. Then, he sprinkled red chili over it and added all kinds of spices. Finally, he added some mushrooms to enhance the freshness of the fish. The stewing in the pot was especially fragrant!
Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing were almost drooling.
Gu Qingyao smiled coldly. "It's rare for Grandpa and Grandma to come here. We only have these good things in our house. This time, we must treat them well."
Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Qingyao's attention was completely attracted by the aroma of the meat dishes and they did not hear what Gu Qingyao said.
More than half of the fish was braised, and there was still a big fish head with a lot of meat on it! When she chopped off the fish head, she deliberately left a section behind so that there wouldn't be only a fish head.
This fish was very big and was enough to chop it up.
As usual, the fish head was stewed in fish soup. She added mushrooms and stewed it until it was a thick, creamy white color.
Finally, she stir-fried the radish sprouts that she had pickled two days ago. They were tender green in color and looked very beautiful when chopped up and fried. Then, it was the wild vegetables and mushrooms.
In this era, as long as there was food, no one would dislike wild vegetables and mushrooms. Gu Qingyao added enough seasoning and oil, so the taste was very good.
She treated the wild vegetables as vegetables and stir-fried a portion of mushrooms. There was a lot of food on this plate and there was no way to make too many types of dishes. As long as there was more food, it would be the same. There were not so many rules in this era.
There were many mushrooms at home, so she could only add more.
