Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 299 Shabu-boiled mutton

When Wu Aiqing started to slice the mutton, he asked Jiang Yu, "Do you want to give some to Yi Chi?"

"Will you use the lamb bones to make soup later?" Jiang Yu poked his head out of the house.

"Stew it, but the mutton soup needs to be stewed longer." It is best to stew it overnight so that the soup will be milky white and have a mellow taste.

"Then cut a piece of meat and I'll send it to him." Jiang Yu heard that it would take a while, so he probably wouldn't be able to drink it that night. So he took some mutton to stew radish for Yi Chi, and also gave him some of the dishes that he packed back today.

"Okay, I'll cut it for you now." Wu Aiqing responded.

"Okay." Jiang Yu nodded, then took out plates from the cupboard and divided the packed dishes among them.

After a while, she went out carrying a basket and the things for Yi Chi.

Halfway up the mountain, smoke was wafting out of the chimney of the cabin, curling up into the sky.

I don't know if he's heating the kang or cooking. It's not even time for dinner yet.

Jiang Yu knocked on the door amid Tuanzi's whimpering. After a long while, Yi Chi finally opened the door for her. His hair was wet and his body was covered in moisture.

This... Jiang Yu immediately realized that she came at the wrong time. The other person was taking a shower, and she suddenly came and knocked on the door. Isn't this embarrassing?

Yi Chi's face was flushed, and her eyes were evasive because of shyness. "You're back."

Jiang Yu also looked away and handed him the basket in her hand, "I'll bring you some food. You... I'll go down the mountain first!" After saying that, she turned around and slipped away at an extremely fast speed.

Yi Chi was holding the basket and felt his fingertips were so hot that blood was about to drip out. When he saw the people running away, he slammed the door and hid in the house to calm himself down.

Tuanzi, who had been expecting to see ginger fish, looked at Yi Chi in confusion. Someone who was about to smoke was reflected in his round eyes. He pushed Yi Chi with his big feet and let out a howl.

Why did you close the door? I haven't seen my good friend yet!

Yi Chi coughed and cleared his throat, then put the basket on the stove and lifted the curtain to see what was inside. There was a piece of hard mutton and half a box of frozen pig's trotters. "Tuanzi, let's have mutton tonight. How about stewed mutton and carrot soup?"

"Awoo." As Tuanzi smelled the scent of the ginger fish dissipating, he could only cry out, then jumped back into the small nest at the end of the kang, put his head on the small pillow, squinted his eyes and began to doze off.

Seeing its appearance, Yi Chi went up to it and stroked it in anger, "You are really such a heartless person. I feed you with good food and drink every day, but you are always thinking about ginger fish. You are such a heartless person."

Tuanzi raised his eyelids and gave him a look.

You said that my mind is on Jiang Yu, but you don't even look at yourself, what is this called! This is called the doting type!

For some reason, Yi Chi seemed to understand what it meant and stretched out his claws, rubbing Tuanzi's belly frantically.

Tuanzi reached out and pushed the unscrupulous man, but it was just a futile struggle.

After Yi Chi had made enough of the fuss, he remembered that he was taking a half-finished bath. Fortunately, the water on the stove was still boiling hot. With a blushing face, he put the mutton that Jiang Yu had brought into the wooden basin, and placed the pig's trotters in the cupboard, and then continued to add water to take a bath.

Jiang Yu hurried back to the educated youth camp and was seen by Fu Biao who was carrying firewood. He smiled and asked, "Why did you come down so quickly this time?"

"It's just a gift." Do I have to live in the mountains? Jiang Yu curled his lips and opened the door to go into the house.

Fu Biao picked up the firewood and returned to his room.

As it gradually darkened, Wu Aiqing began to make preparations for the hotpot.

The soup base used is mutton soup that has not been cooked enough. Add onions, ginger, garlic, white pepper and radish, pour them into a small iron pot, and cook it on the clay stove with ginger fish.

In addition to thinly sliced ​​mutton, there is also roe deer meat, cleaned internal organs, bean sprouts and cabbage. The staple food is Wu Aiqing's special hand-rolled noodles.

When the mutton soup boiled, Wu Aiqing came out and knocked on everyone's door, ready for everyone to eat.

It is still a steaming hot, delicious and nutritious meal.

The mutton that Grandpa Liang brought back tasted very good, with a light smell of lamb, but also a hint of milk. The mutton was very tender and cooked quickly after being blanched. It had a unique aroma when eaten, with a little bit of skin on the edge, and had a rich taste with a long aftertaste.

Not to mention roe deer meat, which is fresh, fragrant, chewy and chewy. No wonder it was almost eaten to the point of endangered species in later generations. Not only because it is stupid, but also because it tastes good.

A small group of people were talking and laughing around the square table, the warmth of the small stove was reflected on everyone's face, as if the cold winter was disconnected from this place, and the fluffy warmth flowed in everyone's heart.

Halfway through dinner, Jiang Yu mentioned to everyone what Lin Anna had done today. "She blew up several black market dens today. We don't know what will happen next. Will your business be affected by her behavior?"

She asked Chen Jinghan and the others, Xue Li was still planning, but he really had no idea how to implement it.

"Isn't she afraid of revenge from others later?" Wu Aiqing really didn't expect Lin Anna to quietly stir up trouble again. Why can't this person just stay quiet? She always has to come out and make some moves.

"What is she afraid of? There are so many people in the construction team, and so many people were injured because of the wild boar incident, but they couldn't kill her. It's just reporting a few black market dens. Can the people in the black market come out and stab her to death?" Xue Li smiled.

That being said, she was just deliberately saying a few bad things about Lin Anna, but she was thinking in her heart that she had originally planned to go up the mountain a few days later, after all, her walking was not so smooth yet. But now that Lin Anna had made such a fuss, if she didn't act quickly, she might have nothing to do later.

"That's hard to say. People in the black market are not easy to deal with." Xiong Lijin frowned, thinking that this matter would not be so easy to resolve.

Can people who dare to mix in the black market and make a name for themselves be easy to mess with? Don't be ridiculous. Not only do they have to fight with their own people, but they also have to deal with people from outside. How many of them have clean hands? Lin Anna's move was really terrible.

"We don't care how lively it is outside, as long as it doesn't bring harm to us." Chen Jinghan didn't care, and he was confident that he would not be implicated innocently.

"Well, that's not clear. When Lin Anna confronted me, she clearly said that she suspected I went to the black market. Those people in the black market want to investigate who is behind them, so they will definitely not miss this link. Then, I might be caught in the crossfire again." Jiang Yu shrugged. Maybe she was really hateful. Every day, she was involved in every trouble.

Fu Biao shook his head. "You are really unlucky, but why did Lin Anna suddenly target you again?"
