Chapter 88
"It's time to eat, hurry up and come down to eat." Nanny Ding called a few people downstairs to eat.
For today, Nanny Ding started brewing sweet-scented osmanthus wine when the sweet-scented osmanthus flowers were in bloom.
Now the time is just right, and when it is opened, the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus and wine is wafting all over the courtyard.
When Jiang Zhao and the others came down to eat, they could smell the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus wine.
"Mother Ding, what are you doing delicious? It smells so good." Jiang Zhao shouted.
Nanny Ding said with a smile: "Hurry up and eat, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
Jiuqi ran over first to see what delicious food was cooked on the table.
Nanny Ding also cooperated with him to take off the lids on the dishes. Today, Nanny Ding made chestnut chicken, angular cake, steamed hairy crab, glutinous rice lotus root in honey sauce...etc.
They are all traditional foods that must be eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival, or foods that mature in autumn.
Like glutinous rice cakes, osmanthus cakes are traditional foods that must be eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The hairy crabs are the most plump in autumn. As the saying goes, the crab paste is fat and the rice flowers are fragrant.
But there was another food on the table, which Jiu Qi didn't know.
It looks white, soft and glutinous, and should be delicious, but he has never seen food like this. It looks a bit like a moon cake, but it is not a moon cake he has seen.
Jiu Qi pointed to that thing and asked, "Nurse Ding, what is this thing?"
Nanny Ding glanced at it and said, "Oh, that, that's the kind of food that the little lady described to me last time. She said that they like to eat it during the Mid-Autumn Festival in their hometown. I tried to make it today. For a moment, I didn’t expect it to be done.”
"The little lady said last time, it seems... what is it called? It seems to be called... snow skin moon cake."
"Snow skin mooncake? No wonder it looks so like a mooncake. It turns out it's also a kind of mooncake."
Only the young lady could think of such a weird idea, Jiu Qi thought in his heart.
Several people sat down together, Ding Momo poured a glass of sweet-scented osmanthus wine into everyone's glasses, and everyone raised their glasses together to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Jiang Zhao took a sip of the sweet-scented osmanthus wine, her lips and teeth were fragrant, and felt that her mouth was filled with the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus.
Putting down the wine glass, he exclaimed, "This sweet-scented osmanthus wine is really delicious."
Nanny Ding said with a smile: "It's as long as the young miss likes it."
After drinking this glass of wine, everyone started to move their chopsticks to eat.
The first thing everyone ate was the snowy mooncake that Nanny Ding had mentioned. Each of them put a piece into their mouths and tasted it slowly.
This snowy mooncake was not like the ordinary mooncakes they ate, but it was icy, waxy, and tasted very good.
Jiuqi nodded while eating: "Well, this snowy mooncake is delicious."
The other two also nodded. This ice cream mooncake is really delicious, something they have never eaten before.
"Miss, does the Ni family eat this kind of snowy mooncakes every Mid-Autumn Festival?" Jiu Qi asked vaguely with his mouth full of snowy mooncakes.
Jiang Zhao said: "I don't know about others, but I used to eat snowy mooncakes every Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Then is there any other delicious food in your hometown that I haven't eaten?" Jiuqi asked.
Jiang Zhao nodded: "Of course."
Many delicacies in her hometown are not available in this era.
Seeing Jiang Zhao nodding, Jiuqi's eyes lit up: "Miss, can you make it for me?"
Jiang Zhao waved his hand and said, "You know my culinary skills too. At most, I will describe it to Nanny Ding and let Nanny Ding do it."
"However, I don't know how many points I can make."
Speaking of Nanny Ding, Jiang Zhao suddenly thought of it, and turned to Nanny Ding and said, "Mommy Ding, you can go home after lunch."
Mother Ding, who was still smiling at first, heard Jiang Zhao say this, and the smile on her face disappeared with a sound of "咻——".
She looked at Jiang Zhao in disbelief, and the others also looked at Jiang Zhao, wondering why Jiang Zhao suddenly wanted to let Nanny Ding go back.
"Miss, is it because my dishes are not delicious?" Madam Ding asked cautiously.
Then he got up immediately: "I'll do it again."
Jiang Zhao smiled, and grabbed Nanny Ding: "Okay, Nanny Ding, don't worry about it, these dishes are delicious today."
"Then...then..." Mother Ding couldn't ask, she was very happy to work here, the monthly salary of several employers was very high, and they were also very nice.
She didn't really want to leave here, but when the little lady said this, she was very worried, and she didn't know what she did wrong.
Jiang Zhao asked her to sit down first, and then said: "Nurse Ding, I have no other intentions, but today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and everyone is reuniting with their families. You should go back and celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with your son."
Hearing what Jiang Zhao said, Nanny Ding was very moved. She was right, the young lady is really nice.
But Mother Ding still shook her head: "I have already gone back before, and I have told him that I will not go back this year's Mid-Autumn Festival."
"No, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, how can we do it if we don't go home?"
"I'm going to prepare some gifts for you to take back, so you can have a good holiday with your son."
Jiang Zhao said.
Nanny Ding nodded very moved, but: "Then I'll go back after I finish packing."
"No need, we have hands and can clean up by ourselves." Jiang Zhao stretched out his two hands to show Mother Ding.
"Hmm..." Nanny Ding said with some embarrassment: "These bowls are quite expensive, I..."
As soon as she heard what she said, Jiang Zhao understood immediately, and said quickly, "Okay, Madam Ding, you can go back after cleaning up later."
This reminded Jiang Zhao that she was waking up from hunger in the middle of the night before, so she wanted to go to the kitchen to cook something for herself.
But this ancient stove was all burning firewood, she really didn't know how to use it, and finally Si Mubai heard the commotion and came over to help.
The two of them worked together for a long time to make a bowl of unpalatable noodles, and then Si Mubai volunteered to wash the dishes.
In the end, there were only two bowls and one basin, which were washed to pieces by Si Mubai.
When Nanny Ding came together the next day, she saw that several bowls were missing, which made her feel distressed. Since then, these people have never been allowed to enter the kitchen.
A group of people had a happy holiday, and Mother Ding was ready to leave after she packed up her things.
Jiang Zhao carried some things to Nanny Ding's room, and then gave her a few taels of silver so that Nanny Ding and her son could have a good holiday.
The gifts were some books, some rice paper, a set of the Four Treasures of the Study, and some pastries. In this era, buying books is very expensive, and these gifts from Jiang Zhao were also sent to Mother Ding's heart.
After Mother Ding accepted it thankfully, she went home to spend the holiday with her son.
