Chapter 60 Fragrant Roasted Pheasant

Datou also asked a soul-searching question, "Beautiful sister, don't you know how to make roasted pheasant?"

All the children frowned and talked a lot, just teaching Chu Yuan what to do.

After all, children in rural areas don’t have much to play with, so when they see a family slaughtering a chicken, they will run to watch. Also, when they slaughter a pig during the Chinese New Year, a group of children will gather around to watch.

So their theoretical knowledge is much richer than Chu Yuan's.

Chu Yuan also fell silent. He put down his hand that was holding the chicken's feathers silently and touched Shanji's head apologetically, "I'm sorry, Brother Shanji."

Under the expectant gazes of the children, Chu Yuan pointed at Li Xiaohu and said, "Xiaohu, lead the way. Let's ask your grandma to make roasted pheasant."

Chu Yuan, who knew that her cooking skills were extremely poor, did not dwell on it and went straight to find her "royal cook". She really couldn't force herself if she couldn't cook.

Li Xiaohu nodded happily. His grandma's cooking was the best! It was just that his grandma didn't like to cook. But every time she cooked for the beautiful sister, the fragrance made him drool.

Li Huifa was still cleaning the yard when he heard a cheerful child's voice approaching. He guessed it was his grandson playing with his friends and did not take it seriously.

Not long after, the little grandson came running over excitedly like a cannonball, "Grandma! Make a roasted pheasant!"

The others also ran over in a hurry, looked up at Li Huifa, and called out sweetly, "Grandma! Roasted pheasant!"

Li Huifa couldn't help but pat the kids in front of him, "What roasted pheasant? What's the matter? Grandma is so old, and she still goes to the mountains to catch pheasants?

"You are no longer useful. You are old. If you were younger, you would definitely go to the mountains to catch pheasants for you little kids and roast them!"

Li Huifa saw that the kids were so happy, so she didn't spoil their fun and instead boasted to them.

But it is not that easy. There is a shortage of food now. Many hunters cannot catch anything when they go into the mountains to hunt, and they also have to worry about the big insects in the mountains.

Li Xiaohu pulled Li Huifang's clothes and shook her back and forth, "Grandma, if you don't catch it, the pretty sister will catch a pheasant and make a roasted pheasant for us!"

After Li Xiaohu finished speaking, Chu Yuan walked in with the remaining children. Seeing Li Huifang, she waved and said, "Sister, thank you for your help. I promised to treat these children to roast pheasant."

Chu Yuan handed over three pheasants. The first one was probably hurt by Chu Yuan, so it flapped its wings vigorously. Then the other two were woken up and started flapping their wings as well.

Li Huifang looked at the three plump pheasants with surprise in her eyes, "Yuan girl, did you catch any pheasants in the mountains?"

It's no wonder that Li Huifang was surprised. After all, pheasants are the hardest to catch in the mountains. They have good hearing and will flutter away at the slightest movement.

Chu Yuan nodded, put a throat choke on the three pheasants, and then handed them over, "Please cook them all."

At this point, Chu Yuan felt a little embarrassed. Not only did he ask his aunt to cook for him every day, but now she also had to give him extra meals. Thinking of this, Chu Yuan thought about it and decided to give him some processing fees when the time came.

After all, there are always two such things as snacks.

Li Hui smiled so much that her face was full of wrinkles. She took it with great joy and then took it aside to kill a chicken.

Then the white knife went in and the red knife came out, and once all the blood was shed, it was thrown aside. The pheasant struggled in its death throes for a moment and then stopped moving.

Then he put the dead pheasant into hot water, soaked it for a while and then plucked the feathers. After plucking the feathers, he directly cut open the belly and put the edible internal organs in a bowl. He asked Li Xiaohu to feed the rest to the dog. Then he roasted it over the fire and burned some small hairs that were not plucked.

In this way, Chu Yuan watched Li Huifang cut the pheasants with her knife and soon all the pheasants were processed.

He spread the sauce evenly on the surface, then picked up the lotus leaves that Li Xiaohu had picked yesterday and wrapped the three pheasants separately. Then he mixed a handful of mud, wrapped the lotus leaves, and threw the things into the burning earthen stove.

Then he started to deal with the chicken offal on the side, cleaned out the dirt, sprinkled it with salt, left it for a while and rinsed it repeatedly, then cut it up and grabbed some sauerkraut from the pickle jar and chopped it up.

The next step was to stir-fry the chicken offal over high heat, and soon the fragrant pickled chicken offal came out of the pot. Not only the children, but also Chu Yuan, who was standing by and watching, almost "fell straight down three thousand feet".

Fragrant!
Fragrant!
It’s really delicious!

You got the right person!

Then Li Huifang picked up the fire tongs, took the pheasant out of the earthen stove, knocked off the soil on the surface with a hammer, and then lifted the lotus leaves, and a burst of fragrance wafted into the air.

Wonderful!

Chu Yuan just wants to have a bite now.

The children nearby were also clamoring to eat roasted pheasant.

Li Huifa brought all the prepared food over, then pulled Chu Yuan aside, "Yuan girl, when you leave, follow your aunt to the kitchen and take the other two back to eat."

Chu Yuan knew that Li Huifa had left food for her. Thinking of this, Chu Yuan pulled Li Huifa to the kitchen, then took an empty basin beside her and poured some of it into it.

"Sister, keep these pheasants and chicken offal for yourself. I'll take all these out. Otherwise, that one won't be enough for these little brats."

After dividing the pheasants, Chu Yuan took the rest out directly. Li Huifa looked at the pheasants in the basin with excitement, feeling indescribably moved. This Chu girl was also stupid. How could anyone get a few bites of meat at this time?
I gave most of it to her. How stupid!

Chu Yuan didn’t know Li Huifa’s conflicted mood, she just wanted to give it to her.

The seven children gathered obediently in front of the small table. No one ate first. They were all waiting for Chu Yuan.

"It smells so good, why doesn't the beautiful sister come over yet?"

Li Xiaohu put his head on the table depressedly, his nostrils filled with the delicious aroma of roasted pheasant.

Goudan's eyes sparkled and his saliva started to flow as he looked at the roasted pheasant. He wanted to secretly reach out and take a bite, but was slapped away by a pair of small hands.

Niuniu put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "Goudan! We can't eat since the pretty sister hasn't come yet!"

Goudan covered his little hands and huddled aside, feeling aggrieved.

Niu Niu is so fierce, no——I love Niu Niu.

"Here comes the meat, little bastards!"

Chu Yuan ran over with the roasted pheasant, and what greeted her was the excited slaps of the little carrots.

Listen to the "wow" sounds with satisfaction.

"Began to eat!"

Chu Yuan finished speaking, and immediately took a big chicken drumstick in one hand. Then, seeing the resentful looks of the children, Chu Yuan was not embarrassed at all, "What are you looking at? Look at Goudan, he is the smart one!"

Goudan didn't even think about the chicken leg. He just picked up his chopsticks and started eating the meat. No one snatched the meat away from him, so he ate very quickly.

Seeing this, the other children picked up their chopsticks and started eating the chicken. Fortunately, these children were very careful and didn't touch the chicken.

This made Chu Yuan, who was eating the chicken leg, seem out of place.

Chu Yuan wiped his hands nonchalantly, picked up the chopsticks and joined the food fight.
