Chapter 18 Stir-fried eel

Seeing Chang Ning looking at him with a dull expression, Han Mingyuan was worried that it was the murderous intent he had subconsciously exposed to scare her.

His slightly frown suddenly loosened, and his arrogant aura instantly restrained and returned to his usual casual and harmless appearance.

"Why are you back today?" Han Mingyuan smiled slightly, trying to make his tone gentler.

"Well, I want to see how you kill eels."

Chang Ning couldn't see the mighty and domineering Regent, and the little worship in his eyes was hidden completely.

"I'm so worried about working? Do you need me to demonstrate it to you?"

Chang Ning stood not far away, stretched his neck to signal him to continue.

Han Mingyuan pursed his lips and smiled, took out a twisting eel from the basin, inserted its head into the crack of the bench with chopsticks, and then poked it in from under the head with a dagger, and stabbed it downwards.

The eel was disheartened.

Han Mingyuan was very skilled in cleaning the eel's internal organs and then cleaved the bones. Judging from the appearance, he knew that it was not the first time he did it.

He put the processed eel meat into clean water and rinsed it, then asked Chang Ning with a slid, "Are you still satisfied?"

"Satisfied, of course I'm satisfied."

If she had known that he had the skill of swords, what would she be worried about! Then go back to farm!

When stir-frying eel meat at noon, Chang Ning went to the village chief’s house in advance to ask for a few chili peppers.

The eel meat has a fishy smell. If you stir-fry without adding chili to cover up the taste, it will lose the taste of the ingredients.

She set a fire on the pile of earthen stove outside the hut, then steamed two handfuls of rice on the pot rack. Today there was a meat dish, and Chang Ning was rarely generous and added another handful to the pot.

Looking at the rice bag that was about to come to an end, Chang Ning lamented that he might have to live by drinking porridge in the next few days.

Sure enough... raising a man is too much of a loss!

After the rice was steamed, Chang Ning boiled the pot red, then put a little lard in, and the pot was immediately fried.

Chang Ning avoided the splashing oil star, threw the chopped peppers in, and stir-fryed them quickly twice.

Then the washed eel meat was slid into the pot. Although the oil smoke choked, the fragrance of stir-fried eels also floated out.

While stir-frying, Chang Ning's stomach was "gurgling" with the rhythm. Even Han Mingyuan in the room smelled the smell and walked out, tidying up the table with a stick, and preparing to get the eel out of the pot at all times.

After frying hot eels, Chang Ning fryed another wild shepherd's purse, then served two bowls of rice and placed it on the table.

"Aren't you eating in bed today?"

Chang Ning was a little surprised to see Han Mingyuan sitting on the bench in front of the table.

Han Mingyuan replied: "It's okay for me to walk, I'll eat at the table in the future."

Chang Ning frowned. He didn't care whether he was eating in bed or not, but there was only one bench at home, which was given by the villagers. The other one was so bad that he couldn't sit there at all.

Now that Han Mingyuan has occupied her, she can't stand and eat, right?

Of course, Han Mingyuan would not be so arrogant. He patted his side, squinted his eyes and smiled, "There is only a stool at home, let's just squeeze it!"

The bench is long, and there is no problem with sitting two people. It just feels a bit weird when sitting together.

The two villains are crazy about love and have formed deep hatreds to protect the one they love. Now they are sitting calmly on the same bench and having a day of eating.

What is this? The Great Reconciliation of the Century?

Sure enough, is the enemy of the enemy a friend?

Chang Ning thought so, but he still sat down next to Han Mingyuan.

Now the person in charge of the family is her, so what about the Regent? Without her cooking and doing housework, she will starve to death sooner or later!

But he just sat next to him, and was afraid that he would not succeed!

As soon as Chang Ning sat down, Han Mingyuan pushed the rice bowl in front of her, and then moved the two dishes in the direction of her as much as possible.

Chang Ning said intimately: I have a strong eye and know who the boss in this family is.

Then he lowered his head in silence and worked hard to make a meal.

The two people who haven't had meat for a long time ate this meal with relish, which can be said to be the most satisfying meal since they were reborn.

Each person had two large bowls of rice, and even the crust on the bottom of the pot was clean, and there was not even a single pepper left on the plate.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a little oily foam at the bottom of the bowl, it would look like it had never served anything before.

Chang Ning gently stroked his stomach and sighed with satisfaction: "Sure enough, the meat is still delicious!"

Therefore, the matter of making money must be carried out as the current key task.

Han Mingyuan turned his head and glanced at her satisfied expression, and said casually: "Wait a few days before my injury heals, I can go hunting in the mountains, and I can eat as much meat as I want."

Chang Ning's eyes instantly shone, shining like diamonds.

"Then you have to have a good rest and recuperate. I wish you a good health soon and all the best!"

Han Mingyuan shook his head with a laugh.

He clearly said that he had left immediately after he healed his injuries, but now no one noticed the strangeness in his tone.

No one said to leave, no one said to rush.

In the afternoon, Chang Ning, who had had enough rest, took the soaked tomato seeds and went to the field.

Growing tomatoes requires highly fertile land, so Chang Ning specially chose a land with a lot of leaves to plant it.

First dig a small hole in the ground, with each hole about three palms apart, and then water it thoroughly.

Because Changning's land is a distance from the stream, he ran around and flew more than a dozen times, which made Changning very tired.

After watering, put 3 or 4 seeds in each pit, and then cover with a layer of floating soil to prevent the water from evaporating and the seeds from germinating.

After all these things, the weather was dimming. Chang Ning felt hungry and the delicious food he had eaten for lunch had been completely digested.

Thinking that he was greeted by a few wild vegetable roots at night, Chang Ning decided to suspend farm work tomorrow and had to go to the mountains to hunt.

Even if you don’t eat prey yourself, you can still exchange a lot of food. At least you have to last until the first batch of cabbage is mature or Han Mingyuan can hunt.

Thinking of this, Chang Ning took advantage of the weeds in the cabbage field to ensure that her first pot of gold could grow up safely and healthily.

When she finished doing this and was carrying a hoe to go home, she saw Han Mingyuan standing on the edge of the field with a crutch and looking at her.

Chang Ning walked over quickly, "Why are you here? Doesn't the wound hurt when you walk so far?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore." Han Mingyuan's expression did not show any discomfort, but his hands hidden in his cuffs were tightly clenched.

"I'm hungry. I'm planning to go hunting in the mountains tomorrow, so I have to get rid of the grass today." Chang Ning made a gesture to reach out to help him, "Go home first!"

Han Mingyuan leaned against his back and refused Chang Ning's support, "I can leave myself. Do you think you are going to hunt in the mountains tomorrow?"

Chang Ning nodded: "Yes, there is no rice or food at home, so I have to find a way to change some food."

"Yeah." Han Mingyuan nodded and said, "I'll go with you tomorrow. I have experience in hunting."

Chang Ning looked at him in surprise and asked skeptically: "You? Can you walk on the mountain road?"

"Why can't it?" Han Mingyuan pretended to be relaxed: "I just look down on my stamina so much?"

Chang Ning pouted, but his heart was full of disbelief.
