Jiangmen's direct daughter is busy farming

Chapter 13 Pickled sauerkraut
Sun's face was also a little shy, the youngest son was calm and the youngest daughter was sensible, how could the eldest son look like a shameless little rascal!
King Xian liked Song Jingkuan's temperament very much. It was rare that someone was not afraid of him and dared to pick up vegetables and eat in front of him so defenselessly. Rather than saying that he was bold, it would be better to say that he was simple-minded, reckless and cute.It's just that more than half of the dishes on the table went into the kid's stomach, which made him a little angry.

Fortunately, Jingyue saw that the food was served on the table very quickly, so she sliced ​​the whole roasted chicken into slices and skewered it on bamboo sticks, and let Leng Yu and Leng Shuang imitate her while lightly roasting the chicken. Brush with sauce while flipping chicken skewers upside down.

Soon, two skewers of grilled five-spice chicken skewers appeared in front of everyone at the dinner table.The one in front of King Xian and Mr. Song was baked by Jingyue first, and it still made the sound of "Ziz", and the fragrance was craving.

"This is a five-spice chicken skewer. I originally wanted to roast a whole chicken, but it took too long. I will make it for everyone when I have a chance." Jingyue looked at everyone apologetically.There are still too few ingredients, and there are not all kinds of seasonings, otherwise she can make more and more delicious dishes. It would be great if there were chili peppers.

"If there is a chance, there must be a chance!" Xian Wang held the chicken skewers in his hand, which did not affect his handsome appearance at all, and ate it gracefully and calmly.It seems that for the sake of this little girl's culinary skills, he also wants to persuade Brother Huang to let the Song family return to Beijing as soon as possible.

"Sister Yue'er, I want more!"

"Me too, me too!"

"And me, and me!"

Looking at Song Jingkuan, Song Jingrui, and Song Zhanming's eagerness to eat and their gluttony, Jingyue's sixth sense told her that they were the Song family's future food trio.

After eating and drinking enough, Jingyue, her mother Su, two aunts Sun and Xia, Madam Su, and four maids began to pickle sauerkraut.

Jingyue first asked four maids to split the white cabbage into two halves, then put salt on each vegetable leaf, and then asked several elder brothers to wash the radish.She also asked Zhongbao to put the iron sheet he bought from the market on a small wooden board according to her requirements, and a simple radish shredder was made.

After Song Jingrui and the others finished washing the dishes, they found the radish shredder that had just been made, and they were all very interested in peeling the radish, as if they were addicted to it.Jingyue thought: this is good, mother and a few aunts don't have to be so tired.

Jingyue started to prepare the seasoning with a large wooden basin. She put in a small amount of boiled caramel, homemade seasoning powder, wine and a large proportion of vinegar, and relatively little salt. After that, she stirred vigorously.

Jingyue put the boiled soybeans, blanched celery, shredded radish, and prepared seasonings in a large basin and mixed them well, and finally divided them into two basins for serving.

Two hours later, the white cabbage soaked in salt had already tasted good, so Jingyue cut half of it into thin strips, then mixed it with soybeans, celery and other mixed vegetables and put it in a basin, and the other half was uncut The white scorpion is directly put together with another pot of mixed vegetables.

"Yue'er, why are the two pots of vegetables different?" Seeing her daughter tossing the two pots back and forth, Mrs. Su asked in puzzlement.

Jingyue smiled and explained: "Actually, the taste of these two pots is similar. After a period of time, they can be eaten as cold dishes, or you can put some in cooking meat and stewed fish. Uncut white cabbage is used for cooking. more convenient time."

"So it's like this. Mother also thinks it's good to cut the white cabbage while cooking." Su Shi looked at Jingyue with relief and said.This daughter is becoming more and more sensible and obedient, and more capable.

"Yue'er, are you going to put these dishes into the wine jars?" Seeing Leng Yu and Leng Shuang, Xia Shi came over with two wine jars each.

Jingyue nodded, and asked Leng Yu and Lengshuang to put the wine jar beside the basin: "I didn't buy so much celery and soybeans when I went to town this morning. Buy it, it seems that only two jars will be left."

The Xia family understood the meaning of Jingyue's words, it seemed that the sauerkraut was going to bring some altars back to Beijing for King Xian.

When it was almost night, all the sauerkraut had been packed and sealed, and there were six jars in total.When it was just ready, King Xian tasted a small dish and found it very refreshing, so the lion opened his mouth and wanted to leave the five altars.

Seeing Prince Xian's carriage leisurely leaving Xiaozhuangzi, the Song family hated their teeth, which is good. After a busy afternoon, they have already made wedding dresses for others, especially the gang of foodies, who almost beat their chests.

Jingyue was also a little depressed, although the virtuous king gave her 5000 taels of silver, but it was a meeting gift, not money for buying vegetables.She worked hard for a whole day, and in the end there was only one pot of sauerkraut left. Such a large family probably would have eaten it in one meal.

"Hey - go home, miss! Look again, the sauerkraut won't come back either!" Leng Yu said to Jingyue in frustration as she looked at the carriage of the Xian Wang with reluctance.That small appearance was like a resentful woman, which made the corners of Jingyue's mouth slightly curved, and her mood instantly improved.

The next day, after Jingyue obtained the consent of Mr. Song and Song Zhanyuan, she planned to open up a vegetable garden in her courtyard before winter came.

In addition, in the next few days, she asked Zhongbao and Zhongyi to build an ancient and simple vegetable greenhouse on the open space behind Xiaozhuangzi, with soil as the wall and bamboo as the roof, and bought large pieces of cut vegetables. A good oilcloth was covered on it, and after letting a few brothers be free, they tied a lot of rectangular grass quilts for her.

"Yue'er, are you planning to grow vegetables here in winter?" Song Jingqi and Song Quan had just returned from town and bought green vegetable seeds for Jingyue.

Jingyue was loosening the land in the greenhouse, and when she saw Song Jingqi coming, she put down her work and went up to her: "Well, the temperature in the greenhouse in winter will be relatively high, which is good for the growth of vegetables, so we can grow more vegetables in winter." You can eat fresh food!"

For Song Jingqi's younger sister, from the love and protection at the beginning to the inability to guess later, in fact, there is a sense of gap and frustration deep in his heart.He always felt that the younger sister in front of him was very close to his family, but also far away. If his father hadn't told him what he said, he might really have thought that his younger sister had been replaced midway.

"Brother, what are you thinking?" It was the first time Jingyue saw her elder brother distracted in front of people.

Song Jingqi smiled softly and said, "It's nothing! I went to the town today to find more seeds for you, but unfortunately there are none left except for the ones you bought last time! When I have a chance, my brother will try his best to find you some more!"

"Really? That's great, thank you big brother! You are really the best big brother in the world!" Jingyue jumped up like a child when she heard Song Jingqi's words.As long as there are seeds, she will definitely find a way to plant them.

Song Quan, who was standing aside, looked at Jingyue's happy face, and looked at her hesitantly, wanting to say something, but afraid to say it, it was Song Jingqi who discovered his abnormality: "Uncle Quan, what do you have?" Do you have something to say?"
