Chapter 463 Big Pot Dish
However, Xu Han still didn't want this in her heart. She wanted to do things herself within her ability and didn't want to rely on others to do everything.
But this can only be changed slowly in the future. There is no rush now. Let's talk about other things after everything is stable.
After looking around and seeing that no one could help, Xu Han said, "You guys just make the clothes here. I'll make dinner for today. When it gets dark, remember to light a few more lights. I'll have someone call you when dinner is ready."
The others wanted to say something, but Xu Han quickly stopped them and walked out of the room without giving them any chance to speak.
After walking out of the back house, he turned the corner and saw Lu Chuan waiting for him in the backyard.
"How's it going over there?"
Xu Han covered her mouth and smiled mischievously, "Not bad, the quilts are all made, but our quilts are not made. If I hadn't remembered, I guess we would have to sleep in the inn again today."
Lu Chuan was also stunned when he heard this, but then he immediately understood. He lowered his head and chuckled, "Hahaha, thanks to my wife, otherwise I would definitely sleep in the inn today."
"It's also my fault that I didn't explain it clearly. They don't know the situation and they definitely can't remember it."
"Fortunately you said it in time, otherwise I might not be able to make it out."
"Luckily, we have enough cotton and fabric left, otherwise we wouldn't be able to do it."
Xu Han continued, "Let's go to the kitchen and cook. They are all making clothes! The others are also busy, and now we are the only two who are free, so I took the initiative to take over this job.
I wonder if our Master Lu is still capable of doing this kind of hard work now."
Facing Xu Han's teasing, Lu Chuan was not angry. He put his arm around Xu Han's waist and said with a sly smile, "Since Madam can do it, then I can do it naturally."
The two of them walked towards the kitchen, chatting and laughing. When they arrived, they found that the kitchen had been tidy up. All the items were neatly placed, the stove was cleaned, and even the floor was mopped to a shine.
Lu Chuan asked, "There are a lot of people eating today. What are you going to do? It won't work if it's too complicated. You'll be too tired."
"Then how about we have a big pot of food, stewing chicken with vegetables, stewing all kinds of things together, it will taste pretty good.
You probably haven’t eaten this kind of big pot dish yet. Don’t be fooled by its ugly appearance, but it tastes really good. It’s especially fragrant.”
After Xu Han finished speaking, she licked her lips in a very special way, looking very greedy.
Lu Chuan looked at Xu Han lovingly and said with a smile, "Okay, let's cook it in a big pot. It will save trouble if we cook it in one pot."
"Well, let's make some dough cakes for the main course, and a big pot of hot and sour soup. The recipes are very simple. Once the ingredients are prepared, it will be ready in a short while."
"Okay, you see what ingredients you need, take them out and I'll clean them."
Xu Han instructed, "Then chop these five chickens first. Try to chop them into smaller pieces. After chopping, go and knead the dough. I'll prepare the dough and water for you first, and I'll do the rest."
After Xu Han finished speaking, the two of them started to take action. Lu Chuan often kneaded dough at home, so he was very skilled at it.
Lu Chuan kneaded the noodles in a short while, and Xu Han had already cleaned the vegetables.
Lu Chuan continued to roll out the dough, while Xu Han hurriedly cut the side dishes. The two of them worked together and were quite fast.
After steaming the unleavened bread, Xu Han began to prepare the big pot dish.
First, put the cleaned chicken pieces into the pot and stir-fry them. After the water is dried up, add half a pot of water, and then add potatoes, radishes and other things.
After the water boils, add seasoning, then put the pre-soaked sweet potato vermicelli into the pot and cook it. Add various easy-to-cook vegetables before serving.
It was the first time Xu Han cooked for more than 20 people, and she was a little unsure about the amounts. She looked at the big pot of food, two full plates, and didn't know if it would be enough.
Fearing that everyone would not be full, Xu Han added two more scoops of water when making the hot and sour soup, thinking that if everyone was not full, they could just drink some hot and sour soup.
Xu Han was also willing to add a lot of ingredients to the hot and sour soup. She beat 20 eggs into the pot before she wiped her hands.
Lu Chuan laughed and joked, "Hahaha, now you are not afraid that you won't be able to finish all the eggs at home, right? One egg per person per day, that means more than 20 eggs a day, plus the dog at home, I'm afraid you won't have enough eggs if this continues."
"Don't worry, that won't happen. Our family is short of everything except eggs.
Even if there are 200 more people, one a day would be enough to feed them.”
Now I can pick up about 150 eggs every day, plus the eggs stored in the space, it's really too much. I can't finish eating them every day.
Moreover, the chicks hatched by Xu Han this year have started laying eggs one after another, and I am afraid that the eggs will get better and better in the future.
Now our family has finally achieved egg freedom. Every day we not only have chicken eggs, but also plenty of duck eggs and goose eggs, which we can’t finish eating.
After the meal was ready, Lu Chuan walked out. As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Zhu Dahu and Zhu Erni, who were smelling the fragrance and trying to look around but were afraid to get close.
"Are you two hungry?"
Zhu Dahu is as his name suggests, with a chubby face and a very honest appearance, but a little thin. He would definitely be cuter if he gained some weight.
Hearing Lu Chuan's question, Zhu Dahu imitated an adult and seriously gave Lu Chuan an awkward salute.
Lu Chuan found it funny but couldn't laugh out loud. He was holding it back very uncomfortably and thought to himself, "This kid is so funny, honest and sensible. My two sons will finally have a playmate from now on."
Zhu Dahu imitated his father and said seriously, "Master, I'm not hungry."
If Lu Chuan hadn't seen him swallowing his saliva frantically, he might have believed what he said.
But it was already late, and Lu Chuan didn't want to tease Zhu Dahu anymore, so he just said, "You two go call your parents to come over for dinner!"
After hearing Lu Chuan's words, Zhu Dahu took Zhu Erni and walked out quickly. The two of them divided the work, one went to find his father and the other went to find his mother.
When Zhu Erni saw Zhu Dasao, she pulled her out, and kept shouting, "Master told me to call mother to eat. There is meat today. It smells so good. I can even smell it."
Mrs. Zhu hugged Zhu Erni, who was trying to pull people out, and scolded her, "You greedy girl, you can't even speak clearly. Can you tell me what the master said?"
Seeing that she was being held and unable to struggle, Zhu Erni could only repeat everything Lu Chuan had just said.
Upon hearing this, the others packed up their things and went to the kitchen together.
Meanwhile, Lu Chuan came back just after he went out. Xu Han was a little surprised that he came back so soon.
