"Kiln chicken, have you ever eaten it?"
Kong Fang secretly drooled while asking Fang Shibo.
Yao chicken is a famous Hakka dish, delicious. Its preparation is simple. First, slaughter and wash the broiler chicken, then empty the abdominal cavity and stuff it with ginger, bean sprouts, garlic, mushrooms and other condiments.
The inside and outside of the chicken body are smeared with refined salt and spices, and then wrapped tightly in tin foil.
Build another kiln, usually with yellow mud blocks. When the kiln is burned until it turns white, extinguish the firewood. Put the wrapped chicken into the kiln and then collapse the kiln. Cover the kiln with a thick layer of soil or sand to prevent Heat dissipates.
You can open the kiln and get the chicken in about an hour.
When you open the tin foil package, a golden chicken will be revealed in front of you. The aroma of the chicken will hit your nostrils and make your mouth water instantly.
"Brother-in-law, you will ask the chicken for a while and ask Sister Yao for a while, what do you want to do?"
"I tell you clearly, if you dare to go to Sister Yao, your status as a disciple of the gods will not protect you? My sister will definitely trample you to pieces and feed you to the dogs."
Fang Shibo's face was full of displeasure and he threatened angrily.
Although he is young, he knows that Sister Yao is not a good person and only does things that are immoral.
Although the Fang family is not a scholarly family, it is a wealthy family in Baoding Prefecture.
Rich families attach great importance to family tradition and have strict rules.
Although there were brothels in the Daxing Dynasty, serious people always regarded them as a scourge and strictly prohibited their children from getting involved.
This was beyond Kong Fang's expectation. In the feudal dynasty of the previous life, brothels were the entertainment places for literati and dignitaries. However, the style of the Daxing Dynasty was similar to that of his previous life. He regarded brothels as savage beasts and was ashamed of prostitutes.
Of course, now is not the time to discuss this.
At this time, his eyes were black, and he was thinking silently: forgive him, forgive him, after all, he is still a child.
"I'm talking about kiln chicken!"
"It's not Sister Yao!"
"Brother, can you listen to me carefully?"
Kong Fang suppressed his voice and roared, not forgetting to look outside the door.
If Fang Shiqing misunderstands that he wants to find Sister Yao, she will never go astray again with her temper.
Fang Shibo was confused, "What is a kiln chicken?"
"Of course a kiln chicken is a kiln chicken. You don't care what it is. Anyway, it's not a kiln chicken. It's a very, very delicious chicken."
Kong Fang gestured.
When he heard it was delicious chicken, Fang Shibo's eyes instantly lit up.
Seeing that he finally understood, Kong Fang stopped explaining. The two sneaked towards the side courtyard. The side yard is very large and has several fruit trees. Under the fruit trees, groups of free-range chickens of different sizes are looking for food.
Kong Fang chose a hen that had never laid eggs, weighing about one or two kilograms.
After catching the chicken, Kong Fang sent Fang Shibo to get ginger, bean sprouts, garlic and some spices, oil and salt.
After everything was ready, they quietly went out through the back door.
On the outskirts of Baoding Prefecture, there is a river.
The river is about two feet wide. There is no industrial pollution in this era, and the river water is clear and clean. Outside the deep water, the river water is blue; in the shallow water, fish and shrimps are cruising.
Kong Fang quickly cleaned the chicken, stuffed the chicken belly with various ingredients, and rubbed oil, salt and spices on the inside and outside.
Once done, wrap it in layers with lotus leaves and set aside for later use.
He looked up and saw Fang Shibo looking at him with a cute expression on his face, so he patted him.
"Why are you dazed? Get ready to work."
Fang Shibo looked at him as if he had just woken up from a dream, as if he didn't know him, "Brother-in-law, when did you learn to kill chickens?"
"Tch, how difficult is it to kill a chicken?"
Kong Fang disagreed.
"But a gentleman is far away from the kitchen. This is what you always talk about!"
So sloppy!
Kong Fang slapped his forehead fiercely.
In a moment of carelessness, he forgot that he was in Daxing Dynasty and his identity.
Although it is not the ancient version of its previous life, it may be just a little more advanced than it was.
His predecessor had the reputation of being a scholar, and he came from a wealthy family. Of course he didn't bother to do housework, let alone the dirty work of killing chickens, which was against family ethics.
"This is a craft passed down by Taishang Laojun, and it's my first time to try it."
He decisively passed the blame to the legendary Taishang Laojun.
"You lied to a three-year-old child!"
Fang Shibo didn't believe it, "Tai Shang Laojun is a god. Gods only eat golden wind and jade dew, and never eat the fireworks of the world. How could he teach you the skills of killing chickens and kiln chickens?"
"But I am a mortal!"
"My master is a god. The Golden Wind and Jade Dew can quench his hunger and thirst, but I can't! I need to eat meat and taste all the delicacies in the world."
Kong Fang explained seriously.
Fang Shibo tilted his head and thought for a while. Although the theory was a bit crooked, it seemed right. After fooling the cheap brother-in-law, Kong Fang sent him to collect some dry firewood.
He dug a pit in the open space, placed the wrapped chicken in the pit, and covered it with a layer of soil.
Then start building the kiln on top.
The materials used in the kiln are all locally sourced loess blocks. The kiln was built and the dry firewood was collected.
He carefully stuffed dry wood into the kiln and lit a fire.
The air is crisp in autumn, and the fire is burning with dry firewood.
The raging fire will burn the loess red, and the dry firewood will also be burned away, leaving only charcoal. Kong Fang saw that the time had come, so he knocked down the kiln and buried the chicken in red loess blocks and charcoal.
He ran to the river, washed his hands and face, and took a sip of river water. It was clear and sweet, better than the mineral water in his previous life.
"puff……"
Facing the setting sun, he sprayed out a piece of water mist, and a rainbow suddenly hung in front of his eyes, red, yellow, orange, green, blue, purple, colorful, small and exquisite.
He was enjoying it, but Fang Shibo was yelling as if he had seen a ghost.
"Oh, brother-in-law, is this your magic?"
Immortal magic?
What the hell?
"Oh, brother-in-law, you were really beaten stupid by my sister. You don't even know that you can do magic!"
Fang Shibo was so anxious that he stamped his feet.
"If you don't know magic, how can you make a dragon drink water?"
Dragon absorbs water?
What the hell is this?
Kong Fang was still confused.
"Just now, you spit out a mouthful of water and a colorful dragon appeared. It is the dragon that absorbs water. Brother-in-law, the dragon absorbs water very powerfully. It will drain our river water."
"You must not use it carelessly, it will harm others."
Fang Shibo looked shocked.
Kong Fang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Rainbow is just a very common physical optical phenomenon. It is caused by sunlight hitting small, nearly spherical water droplets in the air, causing dispersion and reflection.
He wanted to explain, opened his mouth, but finally chose to shut up.
Science can only make sense in front of people who understand science.
Fang Shibo has a mind full of gods and Buddhas, and telling him scientific principles will probably scare him to death.
Because in his world, blasphemy is a major sin.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, just be at ease." He comforted his cheap brother-in-law.
In the distance, the setting sun casts its afterglow on the river, and the clouds on the river are misty and orange.
The boats on the river rushed by, startling the waterbirds in the grass, and the calm river suddenly became full of bird sounds.
"I always remember that the sun sets at the Xi Pavilion, and I am so drunk that I don't know my way back.
Returning to the boat late after all the fun, I strayed into the depths of lotus flowers.
Fighting for the crossing, fighting for the crossing, startling a group of gulls and herons. "
