The wealth of rebirth is deep in the mountains

Chapter 30 Refreshing Kelp Shreds

"Brother Feng, don't worry, I've thought about it a long time ago. Even if my father doesn't say anything, I want to teach the way of this kind of cooking to the villagers, and even everyone in Anzhou and Dayuan who want to learn."

Xiaomi worked hard to clean up all the grievances, and smiled again.

"Let's not talk about the people in the village helping me too much these days. I live together on weekdays. The folks in the village, it is impossible for my family to get rich, but I see the people in the village living without enough food and clothing. There is a saying called 'Don't worry about few, but worry about unevenness'. Over time, conflicts are always easy to appear.

Besides, the northern land is barren, and the common people have almost no other means of making a living in winter. If they learn how to grow vegetables and earn more income, they can always feed and clothe the whole family.

When everyone is fed and clothed, there will be no evil thoughts, and the world will be safe and sound.At that time, even if I earn back gold and silver, I am not afraid that the world will not be peaceful, but that my wealth will bring disasters to my family. "

Feng Jian listened to it, looked at the girl who was talking excitedly and her face was flushed, and suddenly felt a strange emotion in her heart.It seems to want to catch something, but also to be afraid of something.

He has been busy since he was born, reading and writing, learning etiquette, learning how to deal with affairs, and even practicing martial arts and archery. Almost everyone praises him as an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs.

He has seen countless women, fat and thin, but most of them are dignified and quiet, beautiful and gentle.

To put it bluntly, they are like beautiful vases, so beautiful that they are lifeless.

But the girl in front of her is different, she seems to have gathered all the spiritual energy in this world.She doesn't need a man's protection, she won't cry because of difficulties, and won't wilt because of grievances.

On the contrary, it is like an elf, sometimes it turns into a lazy cat, sometimes it is smart like a little fox, and most of the time it is strong like a poplar growing straight towards the sky.

Such a woman, how could he not like her...

Love?
Feng Jian shivered tremblingly, thinking of certain conversations at certain moments, her complexion gradually became complicated...

Lu Xiaomi saw him and thought he was cold.So he quickly stopped talking, stretched out his hand to gather the cloak for him, and then dragged him to the east wing.

"Brother Lu, although your leg injury has healed quickly, Uncle Bi said that you need to take care of it for a while. It's cold at night, so don't go out and walk around. If there is something wrong, you can ask Gao Ren to call Me. He is young and not afraid to come and go in and out of my yard."

As he said this, Gao Ren opened the door, causing Xiaomi to knock on him again.

"Your young master is going out, and you don't know how to burn a hand stove for him to hug. If you make delicious food tomorrow, you won't take your share!"

Gao Ren was really used to being knocked, scratched the top of his head, rolled his eyes and ran away.

Xiaomi couldn't help it, so he could only tell Feng Jian, "Brother Feng, go to bed early, there will be a lot of people in the family tomorrow, and I'm afraid it will be a whole day of trouble."

Feng Jian didn't know what she was thinking, so she nodded and went in.

Lu Xiaomi blinked her eyes, as if she felt that something was wrong, but thinking about the busyness of tomorrow, she didn't have the time to think about it, and turned around and ran back to the backyard to make a list.

Uncle Bi and Old Master Feng wanted to give a thank-you gift, and Aunt Liu in the backyard wanted to secretly make up for it.There are also dishes for tomorrow's banquet, there are always six big dishes, and twenty jars of spirits...

In the early morning of the second day, Boss Lu brought enough money, drove the carriage with Xiaodao, and drove the cheerful Father Lu and Lao Yang into the city.

Lu Wu was arguing to go together, but Xiaomi got up early and fried meatballs, filled half a basket with two smoked rabbits, and drove him to the mountain to meet the hermit master.

Since the family was busy growing vegetables after the new year, Lu Wu went to the mountains much less. He didn't feel anything for his carelessness, but Xiaomi was very sorry.

No matter how peaceful a hermit is, he will always be lonely.For taking such an unreliable disciple as Lu Wu, he probably got blown beard and stared with anger.

Therefore, as long as he can, Xiaomi always gives the old man more food and drinks, as a thank you for taking care of his second brother whose IQ is only "the level of a kindergarten class".

Lu Xiaomi was suddenly left alone in the big courtyard where people come and go on weekdays, and she really didn't feel used to it.

No, there is still Feng Jian's master and servant in the East Wing.But for some reason, Feng Jian didn't go out today, even Yang Boduan came in to eat breakfast.

When Xiaomi wanted to go to the door to ask, Aunt Liu came to help with a group of daughters-in-law.

Places with many women are always the busiest.Washing the dishes, chopping sauerkraut and making bone soup, everyone was very busy.

Although Xiaomi is just making a start, it is still spinning around like a spinning top.

After the sun rose three poles, the carriage that went out to buy finally returned.

The naughty boys had already gathered at the entrance of the village, their necks stretched out with anticipation.Almost as soon as they saw the shadow of the carriage, they rushed back to report the news, and the women answered the door after laughing and cursing.

Father Lu jumped out of the car with joy, his skills were not as weak as usual, and he was very vigorous.He didn't even talk to his daughter, he ran into the house protecting the cloth bag in his hand all the way, and never came out again.

Xiaomi looked angry and funny, thanked Uncle Yang and went to check the things he bought.

Boss Lu and Xiaodao were emptying the baskets. Seeing Xiaomi approaching, they smiled and said, "Xiaomi, take a look at what we bought?"

Xiaomi could smell the fishy smell, so he lifted the grass cover from the basket, looked down, and couldn't help being pleasantly surprised, "Ah, where did you buy the big fish, it's so fresh?"

Liu Xiaodao laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, and replied, "When we went to the market, we happened to meet people from Sanhe Village in the north of the city. They smashed a hole in the mirror lake yesterday and caught a lot of big fish. I rushed to buy a dozen or so."

After finishing speaking, he pointed to the wicker basket next to him, "Also, there is someone selling big geese in the market, maybe there is nothing to feed at home at this time. I thought the pheasants were too expensive, so I bought three back. "

After hearing this, Aunt Liu raised her hand and slapped her son, annoyed, "It's not easy for Xiaomi to earn money, but you don't feel bad when you spend it!"

Liu Xiaodao smiled and didn't reply, but the simple and honest Boss Lu helped to intercede, "I asked Brother Xiaodao to buy it."

Xiaomi also quickly smiled and took Aunt Liu's arm, and said coquettishly, "Auntie, I haven't thanked Brother Xiaodao for being considerate, but why did you hit him? If I need help with anything in the future, I won't be able to talk to Brother Xiaodao! "

"Ah, I'm also afraid that he will waste money. Don't be polite, just call him if you have work."

Aunt Liu really wished her son could get closer to Xiaomi, and immediately changed her words after hearing this, making everyone laugh.

Xiaodao also blushed, and quickly pulled a piece of dark-colored dried kelp and said, "Miss Xiaomi, I bought this kelp too. But people say it's not delicious!"

"It's good to buy it back. These are to be eaten later. My family has eaten it before, and I made a pot this morning. I will cook it for everyone to try. If it tastes delicious, everyone will often eat it at home in the future." Eat a few meals, eat this thing, and you won’t suffer from a thick neck.”

Anzhou is located in the north. I don't know where the coarse salt and fine salt are shipped from. It seems that it does not contain iodine. When she went to the city, she saw someone with a thick neck. The villagers popularized science.

The villagers didn't take it seriously at first, but they took it to heart after hearing this.

The men naturally gathered in the main room to drink tea and rest, and the women rushed into the kitchen, urging Xiaomi to hurry up.

Xiaomi was funny, so he didn't take Joe. He washed and cut the kelp shreds in the morning, put them in a boiling water pot and boiled them for a while. When they tasted a little crunchy, they took them out and rinsed them with well water to control the moisture.Then sprinkle salt, sweet and sour, minced garlic, a little soy sauce, sesame oil, and burnt two tablespoons of vegetable oil to fry the crushed chili, and finally cut off a small handful of coriander and threw it in.

When the woman read the price of coriander, the corners of her mouth twitched in distress.

How could Xiaomi not know, but in her opinion, no matter how expensive this food is, it is for seasoning, and the family is not willing to eat it, so why do they grow it.

Such a simple side dish is delicious but beyond a woman's imagination.The unique freshness of kelp, the sweet and sour taste of sweet and sour, the burnt aroma of chili oil, and the fragrance of coriander, are really refreshing in such a winter day.

Xiaomi took the opportunity to add fuel to the flames, "Such a large pot of shredded kelp only uses a piece of dried kelp, but it costs only ten yuan, which is very affordable!"

"It's so cheap, a meal for the whole family costs less than two cents, it's too cheap!"

"That's right, let's buy some and mix it up tomorrow."

"Oh, no matter how we try, it won't taste as good as millet. This sesame oil and coriander are really precious. I think we should rush to eat a few more bites today!"

Everyone laughed, and finally got busy separately.

The big geese were killed to shed their feathers, and the goose down was kept, cleaned and chopped into large pieces. Millet was reluctant to put potatoes, so she added dried mushrooms to stew together.

The bought fish is cut into large pieces, mixed with tofu and stewed until it becomes milky white, nutritious and delicious.

The bone broth that was boiled into the pot last night, sauerkraut and frozen tofu.

The pork belly and pork lungs left over from years ago are added to the water, and the red pepper is added to stir-fry the fragrance.

Finally, fry the pot and add soup, pour in the fried meatballs, throw in two handfuls of spinach, and it can be said that the most sumptuous banquet in the history of Laoxiongling is ready.

The women hadn't seen it before, but when the dishes were served, they found out that the spinach floating in the meatball soup made their distressed lips tremble.How could such precious spinach be ruined like this? If Xiaomi was their own daughter, they would really have to pick up the broom and teach her a lesson, what is frugality!

It's a pity that Xiaomi's surname is Lu, they are not good, they are cheap and behave.

On the contrary, Aunt Liu relied on Xiaomi to treat her close, so she tapped Xiaomi's forehead twice.

With the precedent of Bai's Hundred Days Ceremony, three tables were opened in the main room of Lu's family as usual, where young and old were seated with the Lu family, as well as Feng Jian's master and servant.

In Xiaomi's backyard, there are also three tables for female guests, and a few daughter-in-laws stay in the kitchen and open two tables to watch the naughty children eat.

The wine jars were knocked open one by one, and the smell of wine immediately filled the courtyard.

The dishes are rich and the spirits are mellow enough to make almost everyone excited.
