Chapter 64 Roasted Pears and Roasted Taro

On the third day of October, the beginning of winter.

The symptoms of a cold were the first to appear in Yu Jian, first itching in the throat, and then a runny nose.If it's serious, it doesn't have a high fever like last time; if it's not serious, the nose is blocked and coughing, which is really uncomfortable.

Then this situation spread to Huang Nuan who was sitting next to her, and then Chen Xinyi who was behind her. In just a few days, several students in the class had already developed the same symptoms.

The class teacher Huang Mingming saw that it was terrible, and if it continued to develop, the whole army would probably be wiped out. He rolled his eyes and sent some of the most seriously ill "exiles" home.Of course, this kind of "exile" is also full of love. After all, there are both test papers and homework.

The three sisters in the fishing village, each carrying their own schoolbags that were too heavy to put down a test paper, walked out of the classroom under the envious eyes of other students.

Huang Nuan stopped suddenly, and said in a low voice, "Today is Friday."

Get over it and it's the weekend.But in order to take an extra day off, she had to do six more test papers than others, six! ! ! !

Huang Nuan felt unbalanced, and she wanted to go back: "I think I will hold on a little longer."

Yu Jian really couldn't bear it any longer. She was always in good health and usually exercised diligently, but as long as she was sick, it would be more serious than ordinary people.The sea breeze in November hurt her face, and there was a sense of salty coldness. Yu Jian put on the clothes and hat on her head, and put on a mask, and she was fully armed.

Chen Xinyi, who wanted to get on the boat, held her back: "Our family is all elderly, if we go back like this and infect them..."

Chen Xinyi was taken aback by what she said, but she also thought about this question carefully.

"How about we stay in the county and don't go back?" Anyway, Yu Jian can cook, the three of them can't starve to death, they can review their homework together, and they don't have to get up early on Monday.Thinking about it is a beautiful thing, Huang Nuan clapped her hands, it was decided!

Yu Jian & Chen Xinyi...

In the afterglow of the morning market, there are some stalls selling vegetables and fruits set up in twos and threes on the roadside of the community.Yu Jian looked over one by one, and there was a family selling pears.The shop owner saw a few people standing in front of the door, took a pear with a smile and introduced: "Do you want to buy a pear? This is an authentic southern pear. It was airlifted from the Northeast..."

Nanguo pear, with the name of the south, really grows in the north.There is also a saying that wild geese from the south brought the wild fruit seeds eaten in the southern forests to the northern country, and this pear species has taken root in the northern soil since then.The weather in the north is warm in the morning and cold in the evening, and after the autumn wind in late summer ripens, it becomes the red-skinned appearance it is now.

I don't know whether this legend is true or not, but it's just a thought of returning home from a long journey, eating a lot but looking at home.

"Boss, bring me some pears." Yu Jian said hoarsely.

Hearing her voice, the boss looked at the clothes of several people, and was amused: "Are you catching a cold? Go back and make some pear soup with these pears, it will relieve cough."

Yu Jian nodded and paid the money.I also bought some vegetables and taro from another stall. Those who are sick should not eat big fish or meat, and get some green leafy vegetables, which look refreshing.

As for the southern pears, Yu Jian was going to use them to make roasted pears.

Pears can be regarded as a relatively common fruit in the Tang Dynasty, and they can be enjoyed by princes and nobles, as well as ordinary people.But people in the Tang Dynasty did not eat raw pears, they had to steam or boil the pears before eating.

Wash, peel and core the pears, put them in a purple casserole, add a handful of red wolfberries, put a little rock sugar, the water has covered the surface of the pears, and simmer slowly over low heat.When the soup is thick, add the chopped red dates and bring to a boil over high heat.

Yu Jian each filled one, added a lot of soup on it, and called the two of them over.

The pear juice is sweet, moistens the lungs and nourishes the skin with a sip, and the pear meat is soft and melts in the mouth after eating a spoonful.There is also the crushed red dates, chewing in the mouth, it is a nourishing taste.

"Ah... my throat felt a lot more comfortable in an instant." Huang Nuan let out a long sigh of relief. After the dry and sore throat was nourished by pear juice, it seemed as if a wisp of autumn wind had blown through it, alleviating dryness, " This stewed pear soup is much more delicious than eating it raw. It's sweet, but not greasy."

Yu Jian finished eating the pears in small mouthfuls. The Huang Nuan was not satisfying, so she scooped another bowl from the pot. She quickly advised, "Don't eat too much." It's too late.

The three of them were in low spirits, and only after drinking pear soup did they regain some energy.Yu Jian was also not happy about making lunch, so the three of them ate something casually and went back to their rooms to rest.

This time she fell into a dark sleep, and when Yu Jian woke up, it was already dark.I took out my phone and saw it was five fifty.There are also a total of missed calls, which are from Father Yu.

After calling back, the phone was answered after half a minute. Yu Jianguo yelled loudly before turning to talk to her: "Ah Jian, grandma said you are sick again."

I told Grandma Yu that I would not go home on weekends, and Grandma probably told Dad again when she was worried. Yu Jian cleared her throat before replying in a low voice, "It's okay, but my throat hurts a bit."

Father Yu thought about it: "The temperature difference between morning and evening is big, you need to wear warm clothes. Have you taken your medicine?" He got an affirmative answer, and then said, "Drink more hot water, and drink hot water in your stomach to relieve the cold." Forced out. Hey... I'm really worried, let your mother go back to accompany you in two days!"

Father Yu actually had this plan long ago. Now that his daughter is at the most critical moment in her life, there must always be someone by her side, not to mention being able to help with homework, at least the child doesn't have to worry too much about eating and dressing.He discussed it with his wife and asked her to quit her job, take Yu Yuan back to take care of Yu Jian, and return to the capital together after the college entrance examination is over.

Mother Yu thought about it all night, but still felt that her daughter was the most important thing.Besides, the business of Yu's restaurant is getting better and better. If there is no matter of the college entrance examination, she will go to help her husband.

"No, I'm just a little sick, and I'll be fine in two days."

"That's it! Dad is going to be busy. You take care of yourself and buy whatever you want. Don't be reluctant to spend money." After saying that, he hung up the phone.Immediately afterwards, Yu Jian received another transfer message, the transfer amount: 2000 yuan.This old father of hers really hit her with money if he disagreed with him...

There was no one outside the door, but the lights in Chen Xinyi's room were already on.She tapped twice, and the door was opened from the inside. Chen Xinyi was already studying. Seeing her, she felt aggrieved after being ill: "I'm hungry..."

With a "puchi", Yu Jian laughed out loud.The little girl Chen Xinyi who always has a straight face on weekdays actually has such a delicate expression...

The taro was wrapped in tin foil and baked in the oven. Yu Jian fried spinach, made scrambled eggs with tomatoes, slipped sliced ​​yam meat, and cooked fried egg and carrot soup.As soon as all the dishes were served on the table, Huang Nuan rubbed her eyes and opened the door, took a breath in a daze, and said, "It smells so good!"

! !There is a hot meal waiting for you as soon as you wake up. This sense of happiness is beyond words! !
Chen Xinyi set the table and chopsticks, looked at her with contempt, and snorted: "Sure enough, stupid people are lucky."
