SIAS Chapter 168.1

Yi Qingqing has made stewed loach with bacon several times at home and has stored a lot of cooked ones in her space.

Compared with stir-fried loach, she prefers loach stewed with bacon.

There was only a small piece of bacon in the canteen, and it had to be shared among so many people. So, no matter what they did in the past, not everyone could get a piece of meat with their chopsticks.

But now, when it is used to stew loaches, the aroma and fat of the bacon will be absorbed into the soup and blend with the loach, supplementing the loach meat with the oil and water that it originally lacks, so the deliciousness rises to a higher level.

In order to allow the oil to fully absorb into the loach meat, she only used cabbage stalks as the vegetable underneath and did not waste the leaves, mixing them into the wild vegetable dumplings.

As soon as the aroma of the stew came out, the children were drooling with greed.

Aunt Guihua and the others also felt that all the hard work they had done before was not worth mentioning. The fragrance was so good that they felt greedy just by smelling it.

At this time, the autumn harvest summary meeting was already being held in the threshing ground, and the captain’s loud voice could be heard clearly in the canteen.

The aroma wafting from the canteen attracted the attention of members.

Captain Zhao Youtian’s stomach was also protesting.

He finished speaking at the fastest speed about the autumn harvest summary, as well as the weighing of grain to pay the public grain tax, the distribution of grain within the team, and the matter of each family sending someone to the farm to help dig ditches a week later.

“Okay, let’s adjourn the meeting!”

In the canteen, the little heroes who had contributed to catching loaches today had already lined up to get their meals. Each person got a large spoonful of food, which included loaches, cabbage stalks, broth, and some wild vegetable dumplings.

Yi Qingqing and the others served their own food first.

The members swarmed into the canteen. Whether they queued up or not was another matter. They first wanted to see what such delicious food was.

The old threshold of the canteen, which had stood firm for more than ten years, was trampled down.

“Line up! Line up! Everyone has a share!”

Upon seeing this, the captain and the village chief came out to maintain order, and the line gradually became orderly.

But the fact that they were lined up did not stop them from standing on tiptoes to look forward, or taking deep breaths with their bodies rising and falling.

This fragrance is worth it if you take one more breath.

The four of them were busy getting food together. They were all experienced and quick, and soon, everyone had a bowl of fragrant stewed loach and some wild vegetable dumplings.

With the stewed loach with bacon, today’s rather substantial wild vegetable dumplings hardly seem to attract attention.

“After this meal, if you want to eat the food cooked by Comrade Xiao Yi, you have to wait until next year. Oh, I’m reluctant.”

“Comrade Xiao Yi, I will definitely support you next year. Just arrange for the stewed loach with bacon to be prepared one more time. You can use my kids as you like. Let them help catch the fish.”

“Old Zhao, stop babbling and go home to eat. It won’t taste good if it gets cold!”

…

Everyone said nice things for free, and Yi Qingqing felt embarrassed by the compliments.

Because there was less bacon and more loaches, the bacon stewed with loaches made this time was actually a little mediocre, but even so, the folks still praised it highly.

Yi Qingqing also patiently told everyone how to deal with loaches.

She sincerely hopes that everyone can have more delicious dishes on the table and be healthier.

After the meal, the canteen gradually became deserted.

Yi Qingqing and the others cleaned everything in the canteen before locking the door and leaving.

The canteen will not reopen until next year.

Yi Qingqing took her share of food and reunited with her friends.
