A Time Travel Effort in the 70s

Chapter 178 Nothing to say, I just want to eat beggar's chicken

It wasn't easy, it was really not easy. After saying those words to Liu Hui, Shen Jiaren thought that this opportunity to benefit herself wasted. She might even be embarrassed to ask someone to cook for her in the future.

I didn’t expect that after encountering this today, I would receive a different reply.

It seems that I really thought too much. Sometimes, for some things, it is better to deal with the matter rather than the person. However, one still needs to have a sense of propriety and bottom line.

Seeing that Shen Jiaren didn't say anything, Liu Hui asked, "What's the matter? Don't you want to? Don't you even want to eat?"

Shen Jiaren quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no, let's go, let's go down the mountain together."

After Shen Jiaren waved her hands, she realized that Liu Hui might not be able to see.

Liu Hui saw Shen Jiaren was at a loss after waving her hands. He didn't know what she was thinking. Liu Hui sighed helplessly, and after making sure Shen Jiaren had the three dogs in her hands, he walked over, picked up the three animals on the ground, and said, "Let's go."

Shen Jiaren followed Liu Hui, holding the dog, while Duoduo followed behind Liu Hui.

Maybe it was because Duoduo was brought by Liu Hui, so Duoduo didn't have much hostility towards Liu Hui when he saw him.

The two men walked down the mountain one after another and came to Shen Jiaren's yard. Shen Jiaren opened the door, let Liu Hui in, and then closed the door casually.

After Liu Hui entered the yard, he went straight to Shen Jiaren's kitchen. Shen Jiaren watched Liu Hui's actions without saying a word. She turned around, released Wangcai, and tied Heilang and Heibao, one under the awning and the other under the firewood shed at the entrance.

After washing her hands under the awning, Shen Jiaren walked into the kitchen.

When she went in, Shen Jiaren saw Liu Hui cleaning the stove, and it seemed that the pot in the stove had been washed clean.

Liu Hui saw Shen Jiaren coming in and asked, "You haven't cooked for the past few days, how did you eat? What did you eat?"

Shen Jiaren replied embarrassedly, "We just use that small coal stove you've seen to make do with it, boil water to cook porridge or vegetables, anyway, it's either stewed or boiled."

"Do you still have those noodles side dishes I cooked for you earlier?"

"There are more, right? I don't know. I haven't looked carefully. I haven't eaten much noodles recently."

Liu Hui sighed and said, "Come here, sit in front of the stove and watch the fire. Don't let it go out. I'll clean these up."

"Oh, ok, is there anything else I should pay attention to?"

"No, just sit there and I'll clean up. What do you want to eat this time?"

Shen Jiaren thought for a moment, "These are pheasants and rabbits, what is the other one? And, what do you choose to take back?"

"You tell me what you want to eat first, and I'll decide what I want based on what you want to eat. After all, this thing is your trophy."

Shen Jiaren was a little surprised to hear Liu Hui say this, trophies?

How is this a trophy?

At most, this must be something the military dogs brought back while taking a walk, right?

No, it is not wrong to call them trophies, because these things are brought back by military dogs from hunting, so they can be considered their trophies.

Shen Jiaren thought for a while and replied, "What is the other one? How can these things be prepared? How can they be made to taste better?"

Liu Hui replied, "This is roe deer, usually fried or stewed, depending on how you want to eat it.

If you haven't eaten it before, I suggest you keep the roe deer. It is a nutritious food. Plus, winter is coming soon. Eating more of it can nourish your body and keep you from being too cold in winter.

As for pheasant and rabbit, it depends on what you want to eat. As long as the seasoning is available, we can basically make it for you."

Seeing that Liu Hui had been talking for a long time but his words were all the same and he didn't provide any reference opinions on relevant practices, Shen Jiaren couldn't help but roll her eyes at Liu Hui.

If you know what you want to eat, why do you need to ask him?

Liu Hui saw that Shen Jiaren hadn't recovered yet. After glancing at Shen Jiaren's expression, he continued, "Most of the roe deer are braised, but there are also stir-fried ones.

For pheasant, you can stew it, stir-fry it, or pan-fry it.

Rabbit can be eaten cold, stir-fried, or pan-fried.

As for the taste, it depends on what flavor you want, spicy, salty, or fragrant.

As for the one you want to eat, that's fine too. I'll just wrap it in a few more layers and simmer it for a little longer."

Shen Jiaren replied, "Didn't you say no yesterday?"

"I didn't say no, I just said the meat is too tough, and the way you cooked it wouldn't taste good. If you have another kind of chicken, that would be better."

Shen Jiaren quickly said to Liu Hui, "I have other chickens, can you make them for me? I have two. When the time comes, you can make them both, one for me and one for you, okay?"

Liu Hui said in surprise, "Two? You have two? This thing can't be put away. Are you alive or dead?"

"Do you want it alive or dead?"

When Liu Hui heard Shen Jiaren say this, he stopped what he was doing and looked up at Shen Jiaren, "Do you still have a choice about this thing?"

Shen Jiaren thought to herself, "Oh no!" But she couldn't just take out the chickens that had been cleaned up at the manor, so she replied, "He's unconscious. I knocked him out. I don't know if he's alive or dead."

After saying that, Shen Jiaren stood up and said to Liu Hui, "Wait here, I'll get it out for you."

After leaving the kitchen, Shen Jiaren went into the warehouse in the west room. After entering the west room, Shen Jiaren closed the door and slipped into the manor. After entering the chicken coop in the manor, Shen Jiaren began to catch chickens in the chicken coop.

Because the chicken coop was fenced off, Shen Jiaren caught the chicken very quickly. Plus, Liu Hui might be waiting outside, so Shen Jiaren didn't care about the size of the chicken and just caught it. After catching it, the chicken kept squawking. Shen Jiaren told Liu Hui that the chicken was in a state of fainting.

Shen Jiaren first folded the chicken's wings together to ensure that it would not jump around. Then she took out some straw from the warehouse outside the manor and tied the two chickens' feet together.

After making sure that the chickens could no longer fly, Shen Jiaren began to think about how to make them faint?

Go ahead and hit him. If you're not careful and make him bleed or even kill him, then if Liu Hui finds out, you don't know what to do.

Tie it up, but can you tie up its mouth? Will the chicken peck itself when tied up?

Forget it, let's do it first. There's no need to worry about the first, second, third, etc. Shen Jiaren simply made a ring with straw, aimed it at the chicken's mouth, pulled it tight, and then tied it up.

After tying them up, Shen Jiaren took the two chickens and left the manor. When she reached the yard, Shen Jiaren went to the kitchen, holding a chicken in each hand, and asked Liu Hui to see if the chicken she caught could be made into beggar's chicken.

After Shen Jiaren entered the kitchen, she said to Liu Hui, "Here are the two chickens. Can you see if you can make beggar's chicken?"

When Liu Hui heard Shen Jiaren's voice, he looked up at the two chickens in Shen Jiaren's hands.

It looks like it is not very old yet, so it is considered a tender chicken.

Liu Hui stood up and touched the chicken's belly, looked at its toes, and blew on the meat between its feathers. It was indeed a tender chicken, and one of them had not even laid an egg yet.

The chicken that has never laid eggs is just right for being a beggar's chicken. As for the one that has laid eggs, she will continue to keep it, as it can still lay eggs to supplement her food.

"Of these two chickens, one has just started laying eggs, and the other has never laid eggs. The one that has never laid eggs is perfect for making beggar's chicken.

Don’t kill this one that hasn’t laid eggs for long. Keep it to lay eggs, and the eggs it lays in the future can supplement your food.”

Shen Jiaren thought to herself, eggs to supplement food? I have no shortage of eggs or chicken, the difficulty is how to make them taste better and not greasy.

Shen Jiaren sighed inwardly and replied, "No need to keep it, let's cook and eat it together. It's already hard enough for me to raise so many dogs in my yard, and I really don't want to raise other animals.

If you want it, you can take it back and let Aunt Aihua take care of it. If you don’t want it, we can sit down and eat it together in the evening.

I have no requests and no ideas.

My goal now is to eat beggar's chicken."
