Pastoral Five Siblings

Yuchun rejected Zhong Liwan's arrangement again, who knew what she wanted to do, she had to pull herself to accompany her, because she was busy, there was a lot of work, and no one would accompany her when she was free.

When I met Zhong Liwan for the first time, I thought Zhong Liwan was gentle and courteous, but today I saw that she didn't know what to do, she was so old, and she shouldn't force others to pester her who was much younger than her.

"Sister Wan, I'm really sorry, you are going to your own shop, and your elder brother is accompanying you, so please invite your own sisters as companions, our small family is no match for your big ones, we survive by our own labor, I don't want to waste my time when I don't have servants who support me with food, and I don't want to waste my time, so I hope sister Wan will forgive me." After Yuchun finished speaking, he shook off Zhong Liwan and Zhong Ionjun to see him off.

But when she reached the gate, Zhong Liwan stopped Yuchun again, saw her smiling all over her face, her white teeth were exposed, and the smile on her face was even brighter, she pulled Yuchun back to the living room again, her words were gentle Very: "Yuchun, do you know your master? Do you know your master's identity?"

Yuchun felt that Zhong Liwan was acting weird today, so why did she ask her about her master's identity?What is her purpose?

"My master and I just met by chance. I never got to the bottom of it, and I never doubted the identity of the master. No matter what the identity of the master is, he is my master."

Zhong Liwan's eyes squinted at Yuchun, as if he was exploring something, his eyes were full of questions: "You really don't know the identity of your master?"

"Master's identity is Brother Chai's father, is there any doubt about that?" Yuchun felt that Zhong Liwan was very angry.Why are you interrogating Master's identity?

Yuchun turned Zhong Liwan's question in his mind for a few times, and suddenly woke up. Zhongli Haosheng was a minister of the Later Han Dynasty. If Chai Rong was the wife and nephew of the current emperor Guo Wei, Zhongli Haosheng must have known old Chai and his son, remembering that time They went to Zhongli Mansion to cook Mala Tang, and the two of them talked for a long time.

Zhong Liwan always asked her master's identity, didn't she know, his grandfather knew.How could she not know.

It seems that she is testing, what's the use of testing me?

Yuchun was thinking hard, and really couldn't figure out what Zhong Liwan meant.

Did she want to accompany her to the county seat by herself... Yuchun was still confused.

Thinking, if Zhong Liwan knew that Chai Rong was Guo Wei's nephew.Does she want to be a queen? How does she know that Guo Wei can let Chai Rong inherit the throne?

Yuchun suddenly thought that Guo Wei's family and family members were all killed by the Emperor Liu Chengyou of the Later Han Dynasty. Guo Wei had no descendants and had to choose the only descendant of the Chai family, Chai Rong as his adopted son.Give him the throne.

Since Zhong Liwan knew the details of Chai Rong, why did she keep asking herself?

She wants to be Chai Rong's queen.Just let her grandfather find someone to propose marriage.

Could it be that because of the master, he blocked her queen's way?Yuchun hated those women who doubted her mind the most.

Therefore, the research on Zhong Liwan is simply a matter of asking three questions, but in fact, I don't know anything.

Zhong Liwan failed to achieve her goal.Naturally, she was unhappy in her heart, Yuchun just didn't want to see people's faces, and pretended to ignore everything.

The person who happily sent Zhong away from home left, and Yuchun, Li Xue, and Xiaoyaer prepared dinner for the evening.A big dish of sorghum rice, millet, and buckwheat mixed noodles.The little girl is in charge of chopping the vegetables, and the three kinds of vegetables are also packaged separately. The bitter hemp vegetables are bitter, and they are pulled out with cold water three times. The dish was soaked again.

The little girl picked up two kitchen knives, and "Ka Ka Ka" alternated her hands, chopping so fast, the same chop was done in a short while.

Li Xue squeezed the stuffing, seasoning the ingredients one by one, and scooped a few ladles of boiled lard into each filling, and there were a lot of oil shuttles in it.

Add sesame oil.Yuchun's homemade salt and pepper.pepper.Put a little mustard powder on each dish to cover up the bitterness of several dishes. Once you mix it with hot pepper powder, you won’t be able to taste the earthy smell of wild vegetables.

Yuchun scalded the noodles until they were sticky. The three large iron pots were cleaned and lit at the same time. When the pots were hot, the three of them started working together.

There is a basin of cold water in front of you, and the cabbage and steamed buns need to be dipped in cold water, which is the same as using thin noodles for kneading steamed buns, but you are afraid of sticking your hands.

"Can I wrap one up for a try?" Jingniang's sweet voice sounded behind her, and the three of them turned their heads together, and Jingniang came to them: "Sister Jingniang, you have been embroidering flowers all day, and your eyes are tired all day. Let’s rest. Cabbage buns don’t have much technical content, and you can do it in a few words.” Yuchun knew that Jingniang was easy to learn, so he learned a few things from her when he came here, but this cabbage buns can be used in the palace. No, the emperor didn't like to eat vegetables.

Jing Niang insisted on trying: "Girls should be able to do it, but many of us can't."

"Sister Jingniang, if you like it, I'll give it to you." Yuchun took a step back and asked Jingniang to wash her hands and dipped them in the basin. Yuchun dug a piece of dough and handed it to Jing How did the mother make a film.

"Sister Jingniang, as long as your hands don't touch the noodles, it's fine if you feel sticky, you'll get wet." Yuchun demonstrated, grabbed a lot of stuffing and put it on the dough in his hand, and turned the hands together to gather the dough As soon as the hands are sticky, they will get wet with water, and the shrinkage will become smaller and smaller. Finally, the seams will be tight, dipped in some water, and the pastry will be smoothed out, slightly flattened, and it will be "popped!" on the hot iron pan. I stuck it sticky: "Sister Jingniang, the most important technique for cabbage dumplings is to know how to heat the pot very hot, and the dumplings will stick firmly. If it is a cold pot, the dumplings Paste it, and it will "ziliu" fall to the bottom of the pot.

At this time, the cabbage and pastry must have a rice steamer, which is the same as a crock pot with eyes. It is placed on the bottom of the pot, and the boiling water can be steamed on it. The function of the rice steamer is to prevent the pot stickers from falling off The water also plays the same role as the steamer, and also prevents the water at the bottom of the pot from overflowing too much. In short, its role is not small.

Jingniang is really smart, Yuchun is also good at being a master, and she is proficient after making two appointments, and she is also interested in it, so Yuchun has become an idler at this time.After adding a few fires, I watched them pack.

These three big pots, each pot is two circles, after wrapping, cover the pot, Xiaoya went to the toilet, the three of them each guarded a pot, Yu Chun taught Jing Niang how to make this fire well : "It has to be burned on a thin fire to paste the pancakes. Vegetables and pastries can't be cooked on a high fire, they need to be cooked slowly on a low fire."

There are no clocks in this era, and Yuchun can't use any hourglass or hourglass, so he can only estimate the time, like those old people, smelling the gas in the pot.Whether it is raw or cooked can be judged entirely by the smell. After a long time of experience, Yu Chun has mastered the accuracy of raw and cooked.

Yuchun really misses the clocks and watches of future generations. It is impossible for electronic watches to realize their ideals, which is the old alarm clock.Yuchun felt that he couldn't do it, so he turned the alarm clock.I'm afraid the ancients couldn't do it. Yuchun didn't know what kind of steel the clockwork was made of, and felt that researching an alarm clock was much more complicated than a sewing machine, mainly because he was not familiar with that thing at all.

Yu Chun was sitting on the fire and thinking about something, Li Xue smelled the smell of burnt: "Yu Chun, whose pot is burnt?"

Yuchun got up quickly and smelled it: "I burned the pot."

The little girl came in: "Yuchun. I'll burn it for you."

Li Xue said: "Yuchun's pot is cooked, and mine is cooked with just a little fire." She heard Jingniang's pot again: "Jingniang's fire is getting low. Just a few more will do."

Li Xue is a veteran at cooking fires. When she was at Widow Zhen's house, whenever Widow Zhen cooked, Li Xue came back from the field, and Widow Zhen also waited for Li Xue to cook. Widow Zhen is the one who enjoys the most happiness.

Li Xue felt that the vegetable dumplings were ready, so she put the three big bamboo baskets that had been brushed in advance on the pot table, and Jing Niang also helped to shovel the dumplings. The smell is so delicious that it makes people greedy just looking at it. After the shoveling was done, the pot and stove were cleaned up, and each of the four of them took a "Kaka" and started eating.

The coffee grounds are crispy, and there is a crackling sound when chewed. The stuffing inside is fragrant, and the first-class oil is better than meat dumplings.

Vegetables are garlic, and they are sweating after eating. How can they have a ladylike image, which makes Jing Niang eat and swallow. Although Li Xue cooks at Widow Zhen's place, she has never cooked it so delicious. Although Li Xue is gentle, country girls don’t chew and eat as carefully as officials and eunuchs. They have the habit of eating in small bites. With a little effort, each person kills two, and everyone eats with a small face. They were all sweating.

This meal is full, much more filling than stew,

In fact, whoever eats stewed meat can't be full. It's so greasy, it's strange to be able to eat it, but it's not as solid as this big dish.

Yonghui and the others came back soon, each took two or three, and ran to the study to eat.

This kind of meal is troublesome to cook, and it saves trouble after eating, and there is no need to wash the dishes.

The boiled water steamed in the pot, drink half a bowl and you're done.

The next day, Yuchun went to the sorghum field to look at his melon seeds. The melons were growing so fast that I hadn't seen them for three days. The little cantaloupe was as big as a jujube. There were only two hundred melons, and the little girl and I were useless. It took a lot of effort to pinch the tips. These are summer melons, and they are reserved for their own food, and they are also reserved for seeds. Yuchun has very little practice in melon seeding, just groping.

"Little girl, let's go home."

Yuchun and Xiaoya just walked to the sorghum field. You said it was a coincidence or a scheming plan. They met Xing Wuyi. Xing Wuyi brought two children, Qianjin and Goubao. Dirt, snot and coffee smeared all over his sleeves, his little face was pitch black, and his hair was disheveled.

Xing Wuyi's image was even worse, his hair was like a hen that had fried its nest, his body was covered in mud, his clothes were torn with a few holes, and his face was black and yellow.

Much thinner than before.

Seeing that it was him, the little girl's expression changed: what is he doing to stop her?

Xing Wuyi looked at the little girl twice, the eyes of the two children looking at the little girl were not kind, Gou Bao's eyes were not so sharp, but Qianjin's two big eyes stared the little girl so hard into two big holes .

Xing Wuyi ignored the little girl, and knelt down to Yuchun when he slipped away: "Yuchun! Please, let our family go! The little girl did all the money theft. She handed it to her stepmother. Her mother never went to the old man's house, the little girl is the real silver thief, she should be the one who entered the yamen, you arrested the wrong person."

"You are still worthy of being someone else's father, but you actually said such unconscionable things. Since the little girl took the bank note, why didn't she keep it for herself, why did she give it to her stepmother? This makes no sense, unless her stepmother forced her to do it." , Have you ever done such a thing? (To be continued.
