Chapter 94: Knife and Bean
Beans! Xue Jian's eyes lit up, which was a good thing.
"Can this be eaten? Are you sure you can eat it?" I know her better, so I also know her habits, so I asked her directly.
"Naturally!" Xue Jian answered absent-mindedly, but thought to herself that this is a more meaningful treasure than eating! In the previous life, if any otaku hadn't tried to plant this kind of thing, you would be embarrassed to mention the word otaku to others again!
(Looking at the list, you said, didn't you?)
Xuejian was happy for a long time, and then said to the little guy in the hospital, "This knife and bean, wrap two big bags for me." He said loudly, thought about it and then changed his words, "Forget it, three bags."
"Little lady, the knife beans are sweet, warm, non-toxic, just take a small amount." The little guy is still honest and responsible.
"It doesn't matter, just wrap it up." Xue saw a gentle smile, which lit up the little guy's eyes and didn't come to his senses for a long time.
Xue didn't go shopping and returned to the county magistrate happily. At present, I live in the county magistrate's office, and it's not convenient to experiment. Xuejian collected the beans and was ready to go home and plant them again.
Zhou Bo saw that she was humming strange tunes again and couldn't help asking, "Have you picked up the silver?"
In Zhou Bo's view, Xue Jian laughed like a little fox only when he picked up the silver.
Xue Jian sang happily, "I won't tell you, I won't tell you, I won't tell you!"
"What good things did you buy when you went shopping just now?" It's rare that Zhou Bo was in the mood to guess the riddle. When Xuejian came to her, he grabbed her and said, "Or did you do something bad behind your back?"
"Huh? Why is Dalang so interested in caring about a little girl like me? Xuejian's eyes widened.
"Can't I care about the restless girl around me?" Zhou Bo also widened his eyes and said, "Try it to the master first, so that you don't have an accident when you come back and no one will take care of the aftermath for you." Forget about others. This snow is rushing forward, regardless of other things.
"Huh, am I that kind of person? Look, come back and surprise you!" The more Xuejian thought about it, the more excited she became, and her tone was proud: "Let you also see Xuejian's unique skills!"
In a good mood at night, Xuejian cooked in person and directed Xiaomei to wash the ribs, put cold water into the pot, boil it for a while, and take it out the blood foam. Then she put oil in the pot, stir-fry the star anise and ginger slices, pour in the ribs, and add the braised sauce prepared in. Next, replenish the water, pass the ribs, and pour in the smashed gelatin. After the water boils, turn to low heat and stew. After one hour, pour the ribs into the frying pan. After collecting the juice over high heat, turn off the heat and take it out of the pan. In this way, when it comes out of the pot, the gum juice is wrapped around the ribs, which is the most nourishing.
"Xiaomei, the next one is the longan wolfberry quail soup, which is very simple. For me, you can make it." So he ordered Xiaomei to first put longan meat, dried figs, wolfberries and sugar into the casserole, then pour warm water, beat the raw quail eggs, let Xiaomei pay attention to the time after the water boils, and then steam a column of incense.
There is a folk saying that "one pigeon is better than nine chickens". Naturally, Xue Jian will not miss such a nourishing meal. First, soak the pigeon in water, rinse it with live water, then put water in the casserole, add the pigeon, add green onion and ginger, boil the soup over high heat, add mushrooms and wolfberries, turn to low heat and stew, add dates after half an hour, and continue to stew. Add a small amount of salt when it comes out of the pot. This wolfberry pigeon nourishes the liver and strengthens the kidney, replenishes qi and blood, clears heat and detoxifies, vitality, prolongs life, and is simply a necessary blood supplement.
"I'm not in a hurry at the end, Xiaotao, come and try it." Xiaotao nodded excitedly, first broke the eggs in a small bowl, then cut the tofu into thin cubes of the same size, and then filled the tofu with egg liquid. Then under the command of Xuejian, heat the oil in the pan, and fry the tofu with egg liquid until it is golden on both sides. Xuejian stir-fry garlic, ginger and minced beef for a while, add bean paste and stir-fry until fragrant, add fried tofu, torn into small pieces of soaked fungus and winter bamboo shoots, add rice wine, water and sugar to stew, cook the tofu to taste, and finally add green garlic slices and carrot slices and stir-fry well, and thicken them out of the pan.
When I brought the food into the room, I saw Bai Yitian and Xu Cong'an sitting upright and asking for warmth to Zhou Bo. While thinking about it, Master Wang was still kind and thin-skinned. He saw Wang Conger's figure flashing out of the door behind him, blushing slightly and whispering, "Brother Bo, are you better?"
Directly refused Bai Yitian's hospitality to keep guests again. With the satisfied Xu Cong'an, the group returned to Pingshan Village. Four people took a car when they went out, and nine people took two cars when they came back.
At the end of the year, Er Niang led the Zhou family to prepare for the New Year. This year, there are dozens of more slaves and maidservants than last year. Every year, we have to prepare two new clothes and New Year's snack boxes for every family in the village. All the courtyards have to be cleaned up. Every time, the second mother is tired and happy. If my parents could see today's prosperity, I don't know how happy they would be.
The eldest brother is coming back today. The second mother has prepared several girls in his room, all of whom are extremely docile and safe. If the eldest brother is willing to let him in the house or be a second-class girl, please let him. Er Niang came to see it several times in person, and there was nothing wrong with it, so she was relieved. Big brother's leg, alas, is injured again and again. I don't know if there will be anything wrong? If there is snow, it should or not.
Just thinking like this, Qiaoling came in and whispered, "Second miss, the young master is back!"
"Big brother, your legs..." Looking at Zhou Bo, who was carried in by several servants, Er Niang still couldn't help but burst into tears. Xian'er, who is the eldest lady of the housekeeper, is still crying, which is ridiculous!" Dalang looked at her and patted her on the head like when he was a child.
"Big brother," Er Niang shyly knocked off his hand, rubbed his nose, and slowly turned around. "Xian'er is not a child anymore." Zhou Bo looked at Er Niang's look and said slowly with a smile, "I know that I am not a child, but I have grown up!" In the future, you should pay more attention to your body. You seem to be thinner and don't look good. You must be tired these days. Let Xu Weng help you check your pulse. The second mother heard it and turned her body back, "Brother, Xian'er is fine."
As he spoke, several younger brothers and sisters also rushed over. Standing full in front of the bed, Xiaobalang took Xiao Jiulang to climb directly to **, but was hugged by Er Niang's sharp eyes, "Careful big brother's legs!" The two women in the back hurriedly took over.
"Let them come up!" Zhou Bo smiled and said, "How can it be so delicate?" This time is different from last time.
"Brother, next time you go out, take Si'er. Si'er can protect you." Xiao Halang's words today were full of confidence and made everyone laugh. It's just the same. Si'er always doesn't eat well and doesn't grow up. How can she protect her eldest brother? Xiaobalang is very picky about food, which is a difficult problem for the Zhou family. Er Niang took the opportunity to say.
"Well, after that, Si'er will eat well, then grow as tall as the eldest brother, and then protect the eldest brother, okay?" I don't know if it's the "prodigal son" or the intention to change it. Anyway, it made everyone smile.
facing the happy face of the family under the candlelight, Zhou Bo's heart was warm: "Oh, Si'er, grow up quickly. When you grow up, you will be a man!" Jiulang also came over with big eyes: "Zhi'er also wants to be a man!"
"Ha," the fifth woman by the bed laughed and answered, "The man with a crying nose!" That made everyone laugh again.
"The fifth sister is the most annoying!" Xiao Jiulang's eyes turned red, and he was afraid that others would cry, so he reluctantly said, "Don't pay attention to the fifth sister!" Curl your lips and raise your head when you curl, not to mention how funny it looks.
When everyone looked at this series of movements, they were extremely happy. You know, the eldest brother has always been cold and strict, and he hasn't sat and laughed so warmly at home for a long time. Er Niang hugged Jiulang with a smile and said, "Zhi'er is right. Only Shu'er is annoying!"
"Second sister, you hurt me!" Wu Niang said, but she didn't care at all. She pushed Er Niang and said, "How good and ladyful Shu'er has been recently!" Er Niang looked at her hand with a slight smile and said, "Tut, look at this action, I'm really a lady."
"Second sister!" Wu Niang was weak and raised her eyebrows and pouted unwillingly. Si Niang smiled and said, "Actually, Shu'er has grown much better than before." There is a lady model like Little Qi Niang at home, which can only show Wu Niang's naughty and lively.
"Good son is very right." Zhou Bo nodded summarically.
Everyone chatted around Zhou Bo for a cup of tea. Seeing that Zhou Bo's face was still very pale, he was separated with a strong tiredness at this moment. Er Niang knew that Xuejian had bought several servants in Anning, but she didn't say anything. She only handed over the new girl to Xuejian and went back to the backyard.
"You can follow Xiaomei Xiaotao to learn the rules first in the future."
Xue Jian simply pointed out their names, which was called Xiaoxing Xiaoli, and did not let them serve Zhou Bo. Zhou Bo is enough to have her. She was not a Virgin before, and it is impossible to be in the future. Since she knows that she doesn't want to leave Zhou Bo in her life, and Zhou Bo won't let her leave, so don't get close to strangers. Regardless of whether it is as gorgeous as peaches and plums or as ugly as salt, stay away from my officials! Save Zhou Bo's carelessness, others are intentional and can't be prevented.
"Young master, you won't have any problem with Xue's arrangement, will you?"
Xue looked back and saw Zhou Bo looking at her, so she came up and asked seriously. Zhou Bo sat and was also shot, feeling quite helpless. This snow saw that he was getting more and more about to ride on his head.
"Just make the decision on this little thing." But I still like to see this new change.
When he returned to his home, he was naturally in a good mood. Zhou Bo hugged Xuejian and muttered in her ear, "Xuejian..."
