They had already made braised prawns for lunch, and they had to change the cooking method at night.
Li Xia thought for a moment and decided to make the "garlic vermicelli prawns".
This was a traditional dish that was very popular in all the restaurants in the future.
In this era, almost no one would do it.
There were two reasons.
Firstly, most people were still at the stage of having enough food and clothing. They did not have much enjoyment.
At most, people lived, not lived.
Secondly, this dish consumed a lot of oil.
Ordinary people wouldn't be willing to build it like this!
The oil used to make garlic vermicelli shrimp could be used to stir-fry several dishes.
Li Xia didn't care about that. He wanted his family to live a happy life, not just live a simple life.
Therefore, he had to enjoy it.
The garlic vermicelli shrimp had to be arranged.
Chu Mengxi and the two milk dumplings definitely had not eaten it before, so he let them have a taste of this delicacy.
In the past, Chu Mengxi's life had been tough. How could her family not know?
Ten days ago, Mother Chu had come to visit her daughter.
Seeing how hard the mother and daughter were living, Mother Chu's heart ached.
However, there was no other way. A married daughter was like water that had been poured out.
He couldn't possibly bring Chu Mengxi back to her maternal family. If that street hubby started to make a fuss and the matter spread, it wouldn't be good for everyone.
Therefore, he could only try his best to persuade Chu Mengxi to divorce as soon as possible.
The last time Mother Chu came to visit Chu Mengxi, she had brought ten catties of vegetable oil and two catties of vermicelli.
Chu Mengxi's family was quite well-off. Her parents were retired workers, and the county town had allocated housing for them.
He didn't worry about food and clothing, and his life was close to being well-off.
In the past, Mother Chu had also brought Chu Mengxi pork, old hens, and other things.
However, Li Xia, that bastard husband, found out about it and built it himself in the blink of an eye, enjoying it alone.
Originally, the old hen was used to lay eggs. This way, the two milk dumplings would have eggs to eat from time to time.
However, Li Xia did not lay a single egg before he sneaked into the wild and cooked Beggar's Chicken.
Chu Mengxi and the two milk dumplings did not even see the chicken bones.
He was too much of a bastard!
Later on, Chu Mengxi's mother did not dare to give her daughter anything too valuable as she was afraid that Li Xia would do something to her.
There was still a pound of vermicelli left. Chu Mengxi could not bear to eat it and hid it well.
Now that he was willing to, he took them all out and handed them over to Chef Li to arrange.
Fans were good stuff. They had existed since ancient times. The quality of the fans made from green beans was the best.
Li Xia scooped a bowl of well water and soaked the dried vermicelli in it.
Then, he processed the shrimp thread and opened the back of the shrimp...
He picked up a carp from the water tank outside, knocked it unconscious with the back of his knife, and scraped its scales…
He caught the fish and prawns himself. He didn't need to spend money and could cook them every day.
They were all rich in protein. He had to make the three of them fair and fat.
The two little fellows came back from the vegetable field.
Li Xia continued to instruct them to wash the vegetables. The two little fellows went back to their work eagerly.
Li Xia nodded in satisfaction.
Although he doted on the two little ones, he would not spoil them to the point of being spoiled.
It was not good to be lazy.
Cut the lean meat, chop it up…
Cut the eggplant into pieces…
There were still more than ten eggs left from the twenty eggs he bought at the supply and marketing cooperative!
He took out four of them and smashed them into a big bowl to scatter them…
The sun had set, and there was still some lingering light in the distant sky.
In this era, it was common in the countryside to have dinner early.
They ate at four o'clock and went to bed early. Because there were no entertainment activities at night, the lights in every household were almost turned off at eight o'clock.
When Chu Mengxi rushed home after work, it was already past the usual mealtime.
By the time Li Xia finished preparing dinner, it was already 5:30 pm.
The people of Shangrong Village had already eaten dinner and were out for a walk.
Li Xia's chimney was still emitting white smoke. The villagers could see it as soon as they looked up. It was very eye-catching.
The night breeze was cool, so Li Xia carried the eight square table from the kitchen to the courtyard.
He enjoyed the night breeze, the delicacies, and the company of three beauties.
The two little fellows moved the chairs while Chu Mengxi served the dishes.
"You've made too much."
Chu Mengxi looked at the dishes and felt a little pained.
She had always been used to being thrifty, so how could she enjoy it so much?
Apart from the steamed egg soup, Chu Mengxi had never seen any of the other dishes.
Where did Li Xia learn this?
Chu Mengxi was a little confused.
The two little fellows smelled the fragrance of the food and could not wait to climb onto the chairs.
The two of them were never careless when it came to eating. They were proactive, cooperative, and diligent.
When they climbed onto the chairs and saw the dishes on the table, their mouths were wide open.
"Wow! These dishes all look so delicious!”
"Wow! Awoo ~! Nuannuan, gluttony!"
Then, she heard Duoduo and Nuannuan salivating.
"These vegetables…"
Chu Mengxi also swallowed her saliva quietly. The fragrance of these dishes was secondary. More importantly, she had never heard of how they were cooked before.
Chu Mengxi looked at Li Xia curiously.
Li Xia cleared his throat and pretended to be proud.
"Cough, cough! Dang dang! " Next, let me introduce these dishes.”
"Garlic vermicelli shrimp."
"Sweet and sour carp."
"Eggplant with minced meat."
"Hibiscus Egg Custard."
After Li Xia finished his introduction, the two little ones immediately showed expressions of admiration.
Pa, pa, pa!
They reached out their small hands and clapped hard.
"Wow! Daddy is so sick!"
"Papa is a chef! I like Daddi's cooking!"
"Duoduo likes to eat fish! Sweet and sour fish, Duoduo wants to taste it!”
"Nuannuan likes prawns! Four prawns with sour rice flour ~! Awoo ~! I want to eat! Gluttony!"
The two children looked at the dishes on the table, and their eyeballs almost fell out.
Chu Mengxi's heart trembled slightly. Just by hearing the names of these dishes, she knew that they were very particular.
"Don't just stand there. Let's eat."
Li Xia scooped the rice and took the lead to start eating.
He did not eat it himself. Instead, he gave Chu Mengxi and the two little ones a prawn each.
"Come, try this prawn first. How does it taste?”
"Oh! It's so fresh!"
Duoduo picked up the prawn and took a sip of the gravy on the surface.
The rich garlic fragrance enveloped his taste buds, making him feel indescribably wonderful.
He peeled off the shell and took a bite of the prawn meat.
The fresh prawns were crispy and refreshing. They were incomparably fresh and sweet. Together with the thick garlic sauce, they were simply too delicious.
"Wow! Delicious! It's so delicious!"
Duoduo praised sincerely.
On the other side, Nuannuan couldn't hold it in anymore when she saw her sister eating so happily.
She also imitated Duoduo. First, she sipped a mouthful of soup and then peeled the prawns.
She didn't know how to peel it yet, so she used her little hand to pull it hard. There was only half of the prawn meat left.
Regardless of the consequences, he would eat half of it first, then he would deal with the meat of the prawn tail.
"Good ~! So good ~! Papa's roasted prawns! Nuannuan, I love you!"
Nuannuan finished a prawn and did not forget to suck the garlic juice off her fingers.
Chu Mengxi also tasted a prawn and her beautiful eyes lit up. What a delicious prawn!
It tasted very different from the braised prawns at noon, but they were both delicious!
"Delicious, right?"
Li Xia looked at their expressions and knew that the garlic vermicelli prawns had completely conquered them.
In the courtyard.
The family ate happily.
Outside.
The villagers who came out for a stroll after dinner were not calm anymore.
