Chapter 130 It’s a good day to eat hotpot

Another thing is the snow on the roof. Some of it has been cleaned, but some of it has not been cleaned. It seems that the house is much taller than others.

Li Jia's family was fine. Perhaps because it was warm in the house, a lot of snow on the roof melted.

Just poke it lightly with a stick and a lot of it will fall off. It is relatively simple and easy to clean.

When he arrived outside the gate and saw only a few people on the street, Li Jiayi ran in one direction.

Actually, I just took a walk around, and when I felt it was about time, I went home through the back door. There were also people cleaning up the back there.

Because there are many people living in the alley! Of course, their family also helped to clean up, there was no other way, who asked them to open a door here!
"Bang bang bang!"

Li Jiayi knocked on the door a few times and shouted, "Big sister, help me open the door."

Soon the back door opened, but it was not opened by my eldest sister, but by my father.

"Son, why did you come back from here?"

After saying this, he saw Li Jiayi holding a lot of things in his hands, and immediately understood what was going on.

"come on in."

After Li Jiayi came in, he stuck his head out and looked around. Seeing that there was no one there, he closed the door.

"Son, where did you get these things?" Li Aimin asked in a low voice.

As if afraid of being heard by others.

The reason he did this was that Li Jiayi brought back too many things. Not only were there too many, but there was also no place to buy many of them.

"Dad, don't ask yet, just help me get it!"

"Oh! Okay."

Soon two people came into the house, and when Ye Xin saw these things, she was also very surprised.

You have to know that my son was only out for about half an hour and it was snowing outside.

Where did these things come from? Suddenly, Ye Xin felt that her son was very mysterious.

"Mom, why are you looking at me? Is there something on my face?"

"Brat." Ye Xin patted Li Jiayi on the head gently.

"By the way, son, do we need a hot pot base when eating hot pot?" Li Aimin asked at this time.

"Uh!" Li Jiayi slapped his forehead.

How could I forget this? This is not the future. You can eat hot pot anytime you want because hot pot base is everywhere.

But now, if you want to eat hot pot, you have to prepare the base yourself.

"Dad, I'll go call Uncle Liao over." Li Jiayi said.

"That's the only way. Your mother doesn't know how to make hot pot base." Li Aimin shrugged.

Seeing him like this, Ye Xin couldn't help but understand what was going on. Wasn't it just that someone was drinking with him again?
As for Liao Kai eating at home, she didn't care because the family had no shortage of that.

Also, Liao Kai is a nice person, and he is very good to his own children. He gives his children all the delicious food.

"Bang bang bang!" After arriving at Liao Kai's house, Li Jiayi went up and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

"Uncle Liao, it's me."

Soon Liao Kai opened the door, pulled Li Jiayi into the room and said, "Come in quickly, it's cold outside."

"Jiayi, what are you doing here at this time?"

"Uncle Liao, are you cooking?"

"Yes! Oh, and Uncle Liao will cook two dishes for us. We will have dinner at Uncle Liao's place tonight."

"No need, Uncle Liao, you don't have to cook. I brought back some beef, mutton, and vegetables. I want to eat hot pot, but I don't know how to make the soup base, so I came to call you."

"What is this? Beef and mutton?" Liao Kai asked in surprise.

"Ok!"

Liao Kai gave Li Jiayi a thumbs up and said, "You are really good. You can even get beef."

If Li Jiayi brought back some mutton, he would not be surprised at all, but he was surprised that he could bring back beef.

In this era, cows represent heavy labor, and one cow can do more work than several people.

It is absolutely true to say that people are not as good as cows. This not only refers to the work, but also to the treatment.

Cows can often eat fried soybeans, but humans cannot.

Things are better now, and people in the countryside can still have food to eat.

During the three-year period, people had eaten up all the grass roots and tree bark, and there was nothing left to eat. But the donkeys and cows in the production team could still eat fried soybeans.

Some people who fed livestock for the production team would secretly grab some fried soybeans and take them home.

It would be fine if you don’t get caught, but if you get caught, then it will be a big problem. To be honest, humans are really worse than animals!

It can also be seen from here how rare cows are in this era.

Now it is a collective system, even if a cow dies, it must be reported, let alone slaughtering the cow.

"Okay, Uncle Liao, stop talking and hurry over! We're waiting for you to prepare the base!"

"Okay, I haven't eaten hot pot for a long time, so I want to have a good meal today."

Then Liao Kai put out the fire and followed Li Jiayi to the east wing.

"Come in quickly, Xiaokai." Seeing him coming, Li Aimin said hurriedly.

"Hiss! Brother Li, your house is so warm!" Liao Kai shouted as soon as he entered the house.

"Hehehe, isn't this a plus one? When the house was first renovated, they insisted on having a fireplace like this."

"Well done! If I knew it would be so warm, I would get one too." Liao Kai nodded.

"Uncle Liao, you'd better forget it. Do you know how much firewood this fireplace burns every day?" "Uh! Okay!"

After Li Jiayi said this, Liao Kai lost his temper. Not to mention whether he could get so much firewood, even if he did, where would he put it.

If you leave them outside, they will probably be taken away by someone in no time.

But Li Jiayi's family is different! They live in a small courtyard and can put anything in it.

At this time, Li Jiayi had already taken off his leather jacket and everything else, leaving only an autumn shirt.

Seeing this, Liao Kai quickly took off his cotton jacket. There was no other way, he would be hot if he didn't take it off!

"Okay son, take out the things and let your uncle Liao prepare them."

"Oh!"

Li Jiayi quickly took out the copper hot pot and a lot of charcoal, which he made in the space.

Seeing these things, Liao Kai gave a thumbs up and said, "You are a foodie."

The eldest and second sisters helped to wash the vegetables, and Liao Kai started to prepare the base of the pot.

As for the beef and mutton, Li Jiayi had already prepared them in the space and cut them into slices, especially thin ones.

Soon the things filled up the entire round table. Fortunately, their round table was big enough, otherwise it would not have been able to accommodate everything.

There is more meat and less vegetables, but it is understandable because at this time, vegetables are more expensive than meat.

Even if you have money you can’t buy vegetables. This is not the later times, where all kinds of vegetables are available all year round.

Although there are plastic greenhouses at this time, they are too few and the vegetables in them cannot be grown unless they reach a certain level.

After all, in the entire imperial capital, there are only a few greenhouses in Caihuying, which can be used for nothing.

With Liao Kai preparing the base ingredients, it was quickly ready. The charcoal was lit and the pot was boiling in no time.

"Come, eat meat." Li Aimin shouted happily.

There was a lot of meat! There was five pounds of beef alone, and a few pounds of mutton.

I guess I can be full just by eating meat without eating anything else.

But apart from Li Jialin, no one else eats like this, especially Li Jiayi. For him, vegetables are better than meat.

Halfway through the meal, Liao Kai put down his glass and said, "Jia Yi, next time you buy these things, can you bring some for me, Uncle Liao?"

"Sure! What's this? How much do you want?"

For him, it doesn’t matter who he sells it to!
"Give me a few pounds of beef, and some pork and lard."

"Okay, I'll bring it back to you when I go shopping again."

"Okay, that's what you said. Don't worry, when Uncle Liao makes the braised beef, I will definitely give you a piece to try."

When Li Jiayi heard Liao Kai talking about braised beef with soy sauce, his eyes lit up.

If that's the case, he wouldn't mind getting some more. Of course, not all of them would be given to Liao Kai. He could also ask Liao Kai to help with the dressing!

He likes eating beef very much, especially braised beef in soy sauce.

In my previous life, when I drank at home, I had to have a plate of braised beef in soy sauce.

After eating and drinking, Li Aimin used a large enamel pot to brew a pot of tea, and he used spiritual tea.

Mom and my two older sisters cleaned the table.

"Come on, Xiaokai, have some tea to sober you up." Li Aimin poured a small enamel cup for Liao Kai.

"Good tea."

"Okay!" Li Aimin smiled proudly.

"Brother Li, sure! You can get such good tea."

You have to know that he, like Li Aimin, drinks liquor every day, and he finally gets some jasmine tea, which he treats like a treasure.

I didn't expect to have such good tea here.

Li Jiayi was speechless when he saw his father showing off! Fortunately, he was only showing off to Liao Kai.

"Son, go light up the sauna. I'll have a sauna with your uncle Liao later."

Li Jiayi was so angry that he laughed. He really wanted to say to his father: Could you please stop showing off?

"Brother Li, what sauna?" Liao Kai asked puzzledly.

"You'll know in a moment. I promise you'll have a good sleep at night after you're done steaming."

Li Jiayi curled his lips, but still went out to light up the sauna room because he wanted to steam too!

Of course, the water in the two large oil barrels also needed to be boiled. The water was not used up yesterday, so they were filled up and boiled.

When Li Jiayi finished and returned to the house, the two people had already finished a large enamel pot of tea.

Li Aimin refilled the water because he knew the sauna would take a while longer.

"Is it on fire?" Li Aimin asked when he saw him come in.

"Yes! Once it's burned, we can steam it later."

"Good, not bad." Li Aimin patted Li Jiayi on the shoulder and said.

Unfortunately, Li Jiayi didn't give him a good look at all. He brought the large enamel pot over and poured himself a cup to drink.

To be honest, if you want to drink spiritual tea, you have to use spiritual spring water. Not only will it taste much better, it’s also good for your health!
The time was almost up, so the three of them came to the sauna room. As soon as they entered, Liao Kai was stunned.

Because this was too rare for him, it was the first time he saw this thing.

Then Li Aimin told him how to use it.

This time Li Jiayi is wearing big pants, so he doesn't have to put the car in neutral like he did yesterday. Of course, some people still have to put the car in neutral today.

That’s right, the person who was going to be idle today was Liao Kai, and Li Aimin didn’t remind him to go home and get a pair of shorts.
