After getting closer, everyone could see clearly. What Tan Yuan was holding in his hand was a cluster of grown oyster mushrooms. The stems were white and bulging, and the caps were like small umbrellas. They were gray in color. Autumn. He was still mumbling, "Based on past experience, it will take at least ten days to pick the first mushrooms. This is too far in advance..."
"Uncle Tan, can we pick mushrooms?" As soon as Xiao Qu Ning heard the word picking, her dark pupils were instantly covered with a layer of light. She happily ran to Tan Yuan's side, raising her little head. Ask, can’t wait, those four words are almost written on my face. Life at home has been getting better and better in the past few years, but in winter, there are still few types of vegetables. It would be nice to have oyster mushrooms for a change.
As soon as Tan Yuan saw Xiao Qu Ning, the word science flew away from his heart. Her existence was the greatest unscientific. He had lived in the Qu family's old house for more than a day or two. He had heard more or less about Xiao Qu Ning, and his worldview had long been shaky. He nodded, "Are you planning to fry oyster mushrooms for dinner?"
Now his mind was filled with all the ways to eat oyster mushrooms, and he swallowed several times in succession.
"Well, I've been looking forward to it for a long time. Vegetarian fried mushrooms, fresh mushrooms and roasted pork, one vegetarian and one meat. How about adding a wild vegetable and stir-fried pork belly?" When it comes to cooking, Xiao Qu Ning opens his mouth and doesn't mention it at all. He stuttered, "The first crop of mushrooms grew today, and my eldest brother did well in the two exams. It's a double blessing. We have to celebrate."
Several of her brothers were shouting and cheering on the side, wishing they could pull up some big flags to cheer for Xiao Qu Ning.
As soon as Qu Hongwei heard this, his chest straightened up unconsciously and his waist became straighter. He thought that he was a major contributor to one of the joys and should get some special treatment, so while Guobao was cooking, he ran around his yard for half an hour, just to use up more food and wait until dinner. You can stuff a few more mouthfuls when eating.
None of the three dishes require slow simmering, they are very quick to prepare. The stir-fried mushrooms made by Xiao Quning completely retain the tenderness and deliciousness of the oyster mushrooms, and are juicy but not bland. Mushroom roasted pork is a more unique and attractive combination of the fresh aroma of oyster mushrooms and the mellow aroma of pork. It is fragrant but not greasy, and has an endless aftertaste. Dried wild vegetables and pork belly are a perfect match. Dried wild vegetables absorb the fat from frying the pork belly, and the texture changes from tough to soft, with a meaty aroma. The unique fragrance of dried wild vegetables just relieves the greasiness of pork belly. A full chopstick and wrapped in a steamed bun, perfect.
Tan Yuan's first chopsticks were for stir-fried mushrooms. Picking three in one chop was a unique skill that he only learned after coming to Qu's house. After taking the first bite, his eyes widened. This, is this the taste of oyster mushrooms? ! It could be said that it was so tender and delicious that he couldn't help but suspect that the mushrooms he had eaten before were all fake mushrooms.
What do you call oyster mushrooms? They should be called fairy mushrooms!
This time Xiao Qu Ning prepared a large amount of dishes. The stir-fried mushrooms were as big as a big bowl. They were full and piled high. The roast pork with mushrooms and dried pork belly with wild vegetables were served in an enamel basin. Even if everyone opened their bellies to eat, That's enough. But there was no share for Qu Hongwei. He sat pitifully on a low bench with a small kang table in front of him. His share of dishes was placed on it. It was not enough, but the three dishes combined only amounted to one bowl. , the ordinary size kind.
"Where's the special treatment you promised?!" Qu Hongwei felt extremely aggrieved, "I took two exams in a row today, but it was a waste of my brain. I need to make up for it. You see, I'm tired and thin. I need to give it to me again." One more bowl, no, two more bowls of food is enough!"
"Well, I have lost weight." Wang Zhaodi looked at Qu Hongwei carefully and then nodded. But then she added, "Your clothes have lost weight."
Qu Hongjun coughed a dozen times in succession, and his face turned red from holding it in. He was choking. He couldn't laugh anymore, so he only gave Wang Zhaodi a thumbs up to show his approval. The other little ones laughed so hard that tears hung on their eyelashes, and their faces were sore.
"This is not special treatment!" Qu Changhai did not stand on his son's side. "You have forgotten what your captain uncle said. Eat at most eighty percent full. If you eat too much, your brain will slow down. You have two more days tomorrow. There’s an exam!”
"Okay, I'll just eat eight cents full -" Qu Hongwei had his own little plan, "Then I'll only eat one steamed bun. If there's vegetables, I'll have to add another bowl, otherwise it won't even be five cents full."
"Okay, bring the bowl and I'll set it for you." This little request from her son still had to be met. Wang Zhaodi nodded sharply and stretched out her hand to ask Qu Hongwei to bring the bowl.
"Mom, give me more mushroom roast pork!" Qu Hongwei couldn't help but smacked his lips when he mentioned the words mushroom roast pork. He fell in love with this dish when he took the first bite. It's plump and tender. The soup from the oyster mushrooms was so delicious and mellow that it almost took his soul away.
"Brother, didn't the captain tell you to eat lighter?" Qu Hongjun deliberately mischievous, "The roasted pork with mushrooms and stir-fried pork belly with wild vegetables don't count, so you should eat less."
"Yeah yeah!"
"Brother, it's better to eat more steamed buns. This one is the lightest."
"There's also stick noodle porridge, which is also good."
Qu Hongjun wasn't the only one who took the risk. They couldn't even keep the food in their mouths during the National Day, and they all just wanted to add insult to injury.
Wang Zhaodi's chopsticks were all heading towards the pot of mushrooms and meat. When she heard what they said, she turned a corner and started to stir-fry mushrooms.
Qu Hongwei was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
"Second brother is right to remind you!" Xiao Qu Ning's words made Qu Hongwei wilt instantly, and Qu Hongjun started to tremble, but her next words changed the expressions of the two of them, "Brother, wait a minute. I’ll make some soup for you with bacon, cabbage and potatoes later, it’s light and nourishing.”
This time it was Qu Hongwei's turn to laugh.
After eating and drinking, it's a good time to talk about business. The whole family was standing or sitting not far from the stove, listening carefully to Tan Yuan's speech. At this time, the fire was glowing red, the room was warm, and the atmosphere was extremely good.
"Both greenhouses have a 100% mushroom production rate. The first crop of mushrooms has grown and can be picked at any time. One after another, the remaining mushroom buds will also grow -" Tan Yuan said: "Photo With the growth rate of our oyster mushrooms, we should be able to pick a mushroom every ten days or so."
When he said this, Tan Yuan glanced at Xiao Qu Ning. He knew very well that the production speed and the unusually delicious taste were closely related to Xiao Qu Ning. It’s not just once or twice that he instructs others to grow oyster mushrooms. This is the first time he’s been so unscientific.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiao Tan!" Qu Zhongdong remembered it in his heart. It was Tan Yuan's great effort to set up these two mushroom sheds. Of course, he must be thanked. But now that the oyster mushrooms are ready to be picked, someone should notify the vegetable station. This time, he did not assign it directly, but put it out to ask for everyone's opinions, "Xiao Xiao and Meizi, who among you brothers will inform? Red Guard has two exams tomorrow, who will accompany him there?"
"Brother, I'm sure I won't worry about the Red Guards. I'll go inform Xiao Hua and Mei Zi." Qu Changjiang stood up and spoke first.
"How about I go with my second brother? If we have to talk about the price, we can discuss it." Qu Changhu said.
"I won't go with you for the exam tomorrow. It's too tiring!"
"I don't want to go either. It's not a problem to just wait at the school gate all the time!"
"The main reason is that I can't go shopping on the street in front. What if I meet those three salesmen..."
"Yeah, we have to run fast, otherwise we would have been stopped!"
The Red Army and the others had the same opinion.
"Salesperson? What's going on?" Qu Changhai and the others didn't know this at all.
The ins and outs are very simple, and the Red Army explained it clearly in a few words. Xiao Qu Ning took this opportunity to raise the idea of opening a factory, "Grandpa, can't you open a factory? I think the uncles and aunts in the food company have said it well. My craftsmanship is so good, it can't be wasted. !”
Xiao Qu Ning shamelessly praised herself, but before she finished speaking, her little face was already burning.
Oops, I’m so sorry!
"I think it works! With Guabao's craftsmanship to protect it, the pork chops will definitely sell well." Mr. Qu Zhongchun was the first to stand up and support him. "However, we still have to negotiate with the production team about the dividends, but we can't Make our good baby suffer."
"I agree with the establishment of factories. There are many such collective economic organizations in northern Xinjiang, and the farms affiliated to the Construction Corps have also been promoted, and they are all prosperous. With the good boy here, the situation will only be better." Qu Zhaowu had paid attention to this matter before he retired and knew more about it.
"Okay, I'll go to the captain's house tomorrow and ask for his opinion." Qu Zhongdong's heart was also filled with excitement. He was thinking a little too far - if the factory was really successful, he would have to pay his annual dividends to Gui Zhongdong. Save the treasure and give it all to her as a dowry in the future.
