Chapter 10 Making Wheat Flour
"Bai Yan, what's the matter with you?" Seeing that Bai Yan was too excited, Tie Lihua couldn't help asking.

"...cough...it's okay, I just feel that people who talk about the royal family like this are a bit...rebellious..."

Bailiyan felt that he was just an outsider who had been with them for a day or two, so if he spoke his mind so openly, did he trust him too much or was he a bit careless?

"Hey, what's this? We're going to...Mom, what's wrong with you!"

Before Hou Zhongyi finished speaking, he was kicked by Tie Lihua.

"You talk a lot, hurry up and eat!"

"Didn't you let me eat it? It's so unpalatable..."

"Aren't you in need of a beating!"

Seeing Tie Lihua shaking his fist viciously, Hou Zhongyi immediately shrank his neck.

At the dinner table, there was an instant silence.

Everyone lowered their heads to pick up the rice, and when the wheat kernels were delivered to their mouths, they made a crunching sound, and the degree of unpalatability was obvious.

Tie Lihua couldn't help but put down her chopsticks after eating two mouthfuls, "This meal is too bad, if I stay any longer, I might starve to death!"

"It's okay old lady, I'll be with you, it's just a pity to waste the food in the field, I wouldn't have wasted money if I knew it earlier!"

Looking at the two of them, Hou Zhongyi couldn't help wiping away his tears, "It's all my fault, if it wasn't for looking for Qing Qingniang, I wouldn't have dragged you down, woo woo..."

The corners of Bailiyan's mouth twitched as he looked at the people on the table, wondering how they had survived until today.

Even if he was used to being pampered and pampered, he would not have fallen to such a situation when he encountered this situation.

Having said that, this meal is so unpalatable, it should be the only one in the world.

He looked down at the rice in the bowl, recalled what he had read in the food book, and said suddenly, "This food should not be eaten like this. Try grinding the wheat into flour."

I usually eat five grains, but I have never eaten ground wheat, so I might as well give them a suggestion to try.

"That's right! That's a good idea! I'll grind it when I have time!"

All three members of the Hou family showed lack of interest, only Hou Yongqing strongly supported her, and Bailiyan couldn't help but give her an extra look.

Hou Yongqing was overjoyed, she was thinking about how to tell this idea, but unexpectedly Bai Yan said it for her.

If you really keep him by your side, there are some benefits!

"Qingqing, when did you become so diligent, you used to do nothing!"

Tie Lihua looked worried, she didn't want to work, and she couldn't bear to work alone.

Hou Yongqing hesitated, thinking that ginger is still old and hot, she just needs to be a little more diligent, and she can see that something is wrong. If she mentioned the matter of grinding wheat just now, she probably would have noticed at a glance that she had changed it. a core.

"Hey! It's different when you have a man. Zhongyi was not the same when he was young. He married a wife and forgot his mother!"

Hou Wenliang's words made Hou Zhongyi look over immediately, "Qingqing, you won't forget dad!"

"...How can I, you are my dearest people, if I forget, no one can forget you, right?"

"That's true!"

The three people on the opposite side nodded.

"I think the grain in the field has to be harvested. Tomorrow we will harvest the wheat together. If we don't harvest it, it will be rotten!"

Hou Yongqing took advantage of the opportunity to mention something, and the three people on the opposite side immediately wailed, "What? You still have to collect food?"

"Qingqing, you'd better forget dad, dad doesn't blame you!"

"Qingqing, don't forget your grandpa about this matter, grandma won't go, the sun is so big, it will kill a person!"

"If you don't go, I won't go either!"

Watching the whole family pushing back and forth, Hou Yongqing had to think of ways to increase their enthusiasm.

"That won't work, we have to go, isn't dad looking for mother? If mother sees us all so lazy, she won't come back with us!"

After hearing this, Hou Zhongyi hesitated, "But as long as we stay here for two years and go to the capital, we can buy slaves and continue to be lazy!"

"It's not absolute. To buy a slave, in addition to looking at the cleanliness of the family background, you also need to have an official position!"

Bailiyan suddenly spoke about popular science.

Hou Zhongyi scolded dejectedly, "You son of a bitch, King Lin, you are trying to make people feel better!"

Bailiyan: ...

"Father! Don't take chances. Even if we can buy slaves, Mother will definitely come back with you. Didn't Uncle Ying say that? Mother seems to be from a rich family. If we have been so depressed, how can you get it?" Her heart and forgiveness?
Therefore, we must cheer up and not be looked down upon by others. It is only right to harvest the grain early tomorrow! "

Hou Yongqing's words of encouragement were mediocre, and the three of them were either downcast or scratching their heads.

Seeing them like this, Hou Yongqing was not in a hurry. It seemed that she had to feed them some food before going to work tomorrow.

After a few bites of a meal, they broke up, and everyone went back to their houses.

Bailiyan came back with a limp, closed the door and thought carefully, what is the origin of this family, and they even know about King Lin, and the most important thing is that they still have the sapphire finger wrench which is a symbol of military power in their hands.

Listening to the tone of these people, it seems that they have some unresolved hatred with the royal family.

But having said that, the sapphire fingers in their hands are more likely to be real. If the ring in the palace collection is fake, the secret history may also be wrong, and the female general back then may not be a traitor.

This matter needs to be investigated carefully.

A jade finger made Bailiyan curious about the Hou family, and planned to stay and find out.

It was afternoon and the sun was hot.

Hou Yong had nothing to do at leisure, so he went to the kitchen to tinker.

Bailiyan had been hungry for two days, and his stomach was rumbling, so he happened to be transferred to the kitchen.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Hou Yongqing cutting a wooden stick with a knife.

"What are you doing here?"

"What are you doing?"

The two spoke in unison, and Hou Yongqing said first, "I'll make a rolling pin for grinding wheat!"

Bailiyan's eyes flickered, this girl actually listened to his words, is she really going to grind the wheat into powder?

"What about you?" Hou Yongqing asked him casually.

"I'll come in and make some dinner!"

Bailiyan took a ladle and was about to scoop some grain into the clay jar, but the clay jar was full of wheat.

Wheat is the worst thing to eat. Before cooking, it has to be smashed into slag before it can be put into the pot. For example, the bowl of wheat kernel porridge he ate today is simply his nightmare.

"Is there no millet and rice?" Bailiyan asked.

"There are only wheat and rice!" Hou Yongqing sharpened the rolling pin without raising his head.

"Where's the rice?"

"I fed pigs yesterday!"

Bailiyan recalled in a daze the corner of his mouth that twitched uncontrollably after being fed a bowl of abortion medicine yesterday and then drank a bowl of rice porridge fed to pigs.

When he came to this house, he really suffered double injuries of body and mind all the time!
After finally finishing the rolling pin, Hou Yongqing wiped the stove clean, put a bowl of wheat on it, and finally took out the rolling pin and gently rolled the wheat grains, and the wheat was easily ground into powder.

"Bai Yan, look, wheat flour!"

Hou Yongqing picked up some wheat flour and kneaded it in his hands, and found that it was already very fine. He couldn't help but excitedly called Bai Yan who was about to leave, and let him see his achievements.

Bai Yan glanced back and nodded.

"The book says what to do with the wheat flour?" Hou Yongqing asked him intentionally.

This guy read the cheat book but didn't tell her the content, just to see what she said.

Bailiyan thought for a while, then said casually, "Add water, mix it into dough, cut it into strips, and cook it in the pot!"

"You come!" Hou Yongqing handed a pile of wheat flour to Bailiyan for disposal.

Bailiyan really thought that Hou Yongqing would not know it, so he took the initiative to roll up his sleeves and make noodles.
