Chapter 21: Mellow Goose in Clay Pot

The big white goose chased around Shen Liang, and at that moment, he didn't care about his rift with Tang Qiaoqiao. Since she could subdue a pig, why would she be afraid of a goose, right? So he desperately ran around Tang Qiaoqiao.

"Do you want to make trouble? What kind of man are you?"

Tang Qiaoqiao shamelessly ignored him. At this moment, she decided not to mix up with this. She didn’t want to become a woman who could only catch pigs and geese in the eyes of netizens.

So there was such a funny scene on the show—Shen Liang kept running around chasing Tang Qiaoqiao, and Tang Qiaoqiao kept avoiding him.

During that time, the big white goose and Tang Qiaoqiao saw each other briefly. But the big white goose's bright, mung-bean-sized eyes flashed, and it looked the other way and continued to go after Shen Liang.

Tang Qiaoqiao was happy, but Shen Liang was about to cry.

【Help, I'm almost laughing to death. This show is poisonous!】

【After the pig was captured, the geese also came. Tang Qiaoqiao and Shen Liang should be called Flying Pig Jumping Goose Team.】

【OMG, it feels that the fighting power of the big goose is stronger than that of the pig.】

【I have already screenshot Shen Liang's scared and crying expression and made an emoticon pack, it's too funny】

【I will personally testify that I was pecked by a goose when I was a child, and I will never forget it.】

【This goose doesn't chase Qiaoqiao. Well done, goose, Ganbatte!】

【Are all the staff of the program group dead? Why don't they help the guests?】

【What people want is this effect. This is a big hit hahaha】

In the end, the middle-aged woman came over and grabbed the goose. Because the pig rushed out of its pigpen and smashed the enclosure, it caused several geese to run out from her house.

But who knows why this goose suddenly rushed to Shen Liang.

In order to express gratitude to Tang Qiaoqiao for catching the pigs for them and to apologize for Shen Liang being pecked by the goose, the middle-aged woman gave them the goose and vegetables as a gift.

Getting an ingredient "running on the ground" is complete!

Tang Qiaoqiao was overjoyed. She didn't expect to complete the task by accident. It didn't waste her efforts to catch the pig just now.

Director & cameramen: 'This is fine too?'

【It's all Qiao Bao's credit. They got a goose at the risk of ruining their image. Qiaoqiao is the best】

【Don't talk about catching pigs anymore. Please remember that Tang Qiaoqiao is cute and lovely】

【Hahaha. Fans, don't deceive yourself. Someone better than Tang Qiaoqiao as a King Kong Barbie is not born yet】

Shen Liang was panting. His heartbeat could not be calmed for a long time, and he got a cold sweat. He did not dare to take a step closer to the goose.

Tang Qiaoqiao was holding the rope with a relaxed expression. She pulled the goose tied with the rope and walked back.

When passing a pond on the way back, Tang Qiaoqiao met Wei Yiqi and Zhou Meng. They were fishing wearing blue rubber trousers, but Zhou Meng sat on the shore, limping with mud spots all over her body. Her face was extremely unlovable.

The fish was too slippery. She fished for a long time without even touching the tail of a fish. On the contrary, she was full of muddy water on her face. She was smelly and dirty.

Zhou Meng saw Tang Qiaoqiao leisurely taking a goose. Her body was clean, and her eyes were full of jealousy.

She looked again at Wei Yiqi, still struggling to catch the fish. She was so angry because the two of them had to choose a task first, which made her miserable.

Tang Qiaoqiao stood on the shore, watching Wei Yiqi flop left and right with a long fishing net in his hand, making waves on the water. He was still helpless, and his tragic expression was extremely pitiful.

Tang Qiaoqiao said, "Wei Yiqi, don't move."

Wei Yiqi immediately stopped when he heard her words. He looked back at Tang Qiaoqiao suspiciously.

After a while, Tang Qiaoqiao pointed her finger to his right. A big fat fish was wandering in a circle. The water was too muddy just now, and Wei Yiqi didn't see it. He held his breath, leaned his upper body forward, and slowly approached the fish with his fishing net. Suddenly, he slammed it down, and the water was surging.

"Look, Sister Qiaoqiao, I caught it."

Wei Yiqi cheered loudly. A big plump grass carp was flapping in his fishing net.

Tang Qiaoqiao gave him a high thumbs up and smiled crookedly.

Zhou Meng was both happy and depressed. She was happy because she didn’t have to stay in this rotten fish pond anymore. But she was depressed because Wei Yiqi could catch fish only when Tang Qiaoqiao came to give pointers. It made her seem like trash.

Zhou Meng secretly swallowed her bad emotions and pulled up her feet from the mud, preparing to climb up. Suddenly she felt a long creature swimming by her leg.

"Ahhhhh! There are snakes!"

Zhou Meng rushed ashore. Her sharp screams frightened the restless Shen Liang back a few steps.

'There is a snake?' Tang Qiaoqiao knelt down and took a closer look. Then, her eyes lit up.

"It's not a snake. It's a rice field eel. A very fat rice field eel."

"Are you sure it's a rice field eel, not a poisonous snake?" Zhou Meng was horrified and tentatively moved forward.

"100% sure it is a rice field eel, and there are more than one." Tang Qiaoqiao saw white blisters in the cracks between grasses on the shore. Most likely, it was the rice field eel's cave.

But she wasn’t wearing a waterproof jumpsuit, so she called Wei Yiqi over. "You wear gloves. Can you feel a hole here? If there is a hole, it may be the eel's nest."

Wei Yiqi was very obedient. He placed his hand in the direction Tang Qiaoqiao pointed and fumbled for a while.

"There really is a hole."

He continued groping in, and he fished out seven or eight fat and long rice eels in a short while.

Zhou Meng really doubted her life. She stayed in the fish pond for more than two hours but didn't catch a fart. Tang Qiaoqiao came and pointed  Wei Yiqi here and there, and they caught fish and eels. The most annoying thing was that Tang Qiaoqiao didn't get into the water at all, but she easily took away all the credit.

Tang Qiaoqiao added, "I guess because Zhou Meng was sitting there all the time, she stepped on the eel's nest until it had to come out and catch its breath, so some of the credit belongs to you."

Zhou Meng could not speak. Was this praise or scolding?

【What kind of treasure girl is Tang Qiaoqiao? I feel like she can't die even if we throw her into the wild by herself】

【I counted: she caught the pig, she got the goose, she found the fish and the eels. She led the entire team!】

【I am a rural person who has never caught a pig, nor did I know where the wild rice eel lives. Qiao Bao is really capable.】

Wei Yiqi put the rice eels and fish in his back basket, and the group returned with a full load.

Mao Li and Hu Miao had already returned to their residence. Hu Miao shouted about how he pulled weed and fertilized an old grandma's field so hard, only to get two lingering white radishes and Chinese cabbage.

Mao Li said with a blank expression, "I was the one who pulled the weeds."

Hu Miao chuckled and said, "We are a team. It's all the same. We are all the same."

After all the ingredients were in place, there was the question of who would cook the food. Almost no one had any disagreements this time. The crowd pushed Tang Qiaoqiao out.

Zhou Meng gave up struggling. It was impossible for her to kill a goose in her life, and the eels are sticky and slippery, so disgusting, she would never touch them.

Since Tang Qiaoqiao loves meritorious work so much, let her do it all by herself, so she won't be exhausted.

Mao Li looked at the big white goose and asked, "What are you going to do with this goose?"

Tang Qiaoqiao saw that Mao Li had an idea. "How do you want to eat it?"

Mao Li pondered for a few seconds, and her expression was filled with melancholy. "When I was a child, my mother used to cook a dish called goose in a clay pot. She has been gone for many years, and I haven't eaten the dish for a long time."

"I'll make it." Tang Qiaoqiao responded. How could she not agree to the beauty's request?

She glanced at the living freeloaders lying around in the living room. She clapped her hands and said, "I will handle the goose, Wei Yiqi will handle the eel, Shen Liang and Zhou Meng will cut the fish, and Mao Li and Hu Miao will clean the radishes and Chinese cabbage."

Zhou Meng: "I don't know how to kill fish."

Tang Qiaoqiao said indifferently, "Do you want to kill eels?"

Zhou Meng imagined touching the slimy eels and stopped speaking.

Shen Liang protested. "Why include me in this? I didn't catch the fish."

Tang Qiaoqiao glanced at him coldly. "Then you come and kill the goose."

Shen Liang was choked. If anything, the goose would kill him instead.

【People who don't work don't eat. If you don't cook, you won't be able to eat farts】

【Qiaoqiao is mighty. You can't get used to them】

Tang Qiaoqiao quickly cut the goose's neck, scalded it, and plucked the feathers with boiling water. Seeing her calmly and skillfully killing geese, Zhou Meng and Shen Liang felt that their hair was standing up. They didn't dare say a word of nonsense and obediently came to cut the fish.

After Mao Li washed the vegetables, she came to help Tang Qiaoqiao pluck the goose's hair. Tang Qiaoqiao realized that Mao Li was not the kind of person she had imagined, someone who wouldn't touch the water with her fingers.

After a while, all the ingredients were cleaned. The head of the fish was smashed and a little bloody. However, Tang Qiaoqiao was too lazy to care and started cooking.

Goose in a clay pot is a classic Cantonese dish. It was best to use a domestic goose fed with grains. It was plump, oily, and had a smoother taste. The method was not complicated, and you would get the original flavor of goose meat.

She cut the goose into chunks, blanched it with boiled water to remove the fishiness, and stir-fried it with green onion, ginger, and garlic. After the shining oil of the goose skin slowly rendered out, she added ginger slices, cooking wine, and orange peel. Then she added the right amount of Chu Hou paste and water, transferred it to a clay pot, and let it simmer on medium-low heat.

The radish was very watery, crispy, sweet, and spicy when eaten raw. So she cut into thin slices, and when the goose was tender, she added it to the clay pot.

The grass carp was used to make boiled fish. She chopped off the pulpy fish head and cut the body ​​into two pieces. She separated the meat from the spine and sliced it ​​into even slices. Then she cooked it with pickles, starch, cooking wine, and salt.

Tang Qiaoqiao concentrated on cooking, and Mao Li was watching from the side. From time to time, she helped her pass the seasoning or wipe her sweat. The two of them didn't talk, but the picture looked exceptionally harmonious.

Next, she put the fish head and fish spine into a pot that had been stir-frying dried chili, pepper, and other ingredients. She stirred it a few times, then poured in three or four bowls of boiling water. When the fish soup boils, and she slid the fish fillets into the pot.

The fish was very delicate. In less than a minute, the fish became tender and white, with the edges curled up. At this time, it was ready to be poured out of the pot into a porcelain bowl covered with boiled cabbage leaves. At the same time, she poured hot oil with pepper and garlic of the fish. The rich, spicy smell suddenly came to everyone's nose.

The rice field eel caught this time was worth it. It was extraordinarily fat and thick. The rice field eel lived in the soil, so to remove the soil's smell, Tang Qiaoqiao washed it three times with cornstarch and salt, then marinated it with cooking wine and pepper for a while.

Finally, she stirred-fry it in a pan with hot oil until golden brown. Then she poured in half a bottle of beer and let it simmer. The beer not only removes the fishy smell but also enhances the fragrance.

After they finished their work, several other people had nothing to do, so they stayed in the kitchen. They were itchy and couldn't bear the strong smell, and the greedy worms in their stomachs screamed more joyously.

So, when Tang Qiaoqiao looked up and wanted to stretch her neck to relax, she suddenly found the other five people forming a circle behind her, just staring at her.

"What are you doing?"
