Nongmen Merchant Girl

Chapter 9
When Yinhua came back from washing, Xu Ru helped to wring the clothes and cool them on the bamboo poles in the yard.

"Fourth sister, come with me to the backyard to pluck some cabbage and make vegetable porridge in the afternoon."

In the vegetable field in the backyard, there is a piece of radish, a piece of green vegetables, and several sprouted eggplants.

"Second sister, don't you have eggplants here? They are getting old, why don't you pick them and eat them?" Xu Ru saw a small piece of cabbage planted in the backyard, red radishes as thick as fingers, and a dozen stalks that were a little hairy. eggplant.

"Hey, when this autumn eggplant is cooked, it takes a lot of oil and seasoning. It's bitter and astringent, and it's not delicious, and the soft family members don't like to eat it," Yinhua said with some disgust.

"I like to eat eggplants. How about we make eggplants tonight, Second Sister?"

"That's fine, you pick a few, they're getting old anyway, it's a waste if you can't eat them in a few days."

After picking the eggplant, she was a little worried. She originally liked to eat eggplant with fish flavor and garlic paste, but it seemed difficult to make it by herself.

She stood on the edge of the ground holding the eggplant, thinking carefully about how to eat the eggplant.

This time, an additional message suddenly appeared in the back of her mind unconsciously, specifically about the recipe steps of eggplant cooking.

"Damn!" she exclaimed unconsciously.

"Fourth sister, what did you say?" Zhao Di, who was picking up vegetables, looked at her with a questioning look.

"Oh, hehe, it's okay, I said the vegetables are so green." She smiled awkwardly and responded casually.

Zhao Di smiled, and said that the green vegetables were watered with soil and dung at home, so of course they grew well.

According to the memories in her mind, Xu Ru found some garlic in the kitchen and peeled them, and pulled out a shallot. She planned to make garlic eggplant.

Yinhua greeted Xu Ru to light the fire while making cornmeal.A large pot in the front is used to cook porridge, and a smaller pot in the back is used to bake tortillas.In the past few days, Xu Ru often helped to light the fire, so she was able to control the fire better.

"Second Sister, you should peel off the eggplant skin before cooking, otherwise the skin will be too old and not easy to cook, and it will not taste good. Also, cut the eggplant and boil it in the front pot and take it out."

"Sis, where did you hear about this practice? It's not tasty, so it's better to stir-fry it."

"Second sister, just listen to me. I like to eat it. You boil the eggplant first." Xu Ru said to Yinhua with a smile.

Since the fourth girl recovered from her illness, people have become smarter and talk more. Since she said to do this, Yinhua obeyed her.

Yinhua turned over the corn tortillas baked in the small pot from time to time, and picked them out one by one when they turned dark golden.The eggplant had been boiled and was taken into a large bowl. At this time, Yinhua scoured a small bowl of millet and a small bowl of rice to cook together in the pot.

"Second sister, you come to light the fire, and I'll cook the eggplant dishes."

Xu Ru washed her hands, tore apart the eggplant, and quickly poured a little oil into the back pot.Then smashed the garlic and chopped it finely, shredded the green onion, covered the eggplant thinly, sprinkled salt, chili powder, and when the oil stopped smoking, she asked Yinhua to help pick up the pot and take care of the oil. Splashed on the eggplant.

The small kitchen was filled with the smell of choked chili and garlic.

"It smells so good, Simei, where did you get it? It smells so good, it must be delicious."

Yinhua sniffed exaggeratedly while sprinkling vegetable leaves into the pot.She never thought that one day the fourth sister would be able to cook.

"Hehe, it's all my own greedy way of eating. It won't be harsh if I eat it this way, and the soft boiled little treasure will definitely like it." She said this, but she was very excited in her heart. In my previous life, I was a person who could only eat but could not cook, but now I can cook such delicious dishes.
