The Whole Family

The small fish were very fresh. They were wrapped in flour and deep-fried, stirred with chilis and ginger slices. They were the best to eat like this.

When Shao Yunduan returned, he brought pork belly, pork ribs, cheese bones, and a dozen chickens and ducks.

Ms. Fang put the chickens and ducks into the cage, since they were not bred by the family, the chicken might run away. But the ducks would always linger nearby.

For dinner, they stewed soup with two cheese bones, soybeans, and Chinese yam, marinated spare ribs and fried, stir-fried pork loin and loofah, deep-fried pork belly, saving them for the next day.

There were wolfberry buds in the floral fields, so some were picked and fried. The bitter gourd on the fence had also grown, and they made another dish of fried bitter gourd with sliced meat.
