after marrying stepbrother

Chapter 118 Hot and Sour Noodles

Chapter 118 Hot and Sour Noodles

Jiang Baozhu hadn't been to the yamen since the last time they parted ways, instead she asked Xiaoxi to send things and pass on messages from time to time.

Jiang Huai was very annoyed when he learned that he was cheated by Hua Niang's magpie, which became a big joke in the town.

In the past, Jiang Baozhu and Xu's servants who neglected Jiang Baozhu and Xu's servants, even though they had served Jiang's family for many years, Jiang Huai still sold them without mercy, and bought a group of newcomers from Ren Yazi.

The Jiang family was in a mess, and the newcomers couldn't handle it well. Only Xiaoxi's family and Jiang Baozhu's dumb lady who was in charge of cleaning the yard were left in the house.

Jiang Huai felt that she owed her daughter, and tried every means to make it up, but after this incident, Jiang Baozhu seemed to suddenly look away, and put her mind on taking care of her mother Xu.

"Mom, it's cold today, why don't we eat something fresh?"

Lin Yuesha suggested that she make some deep-fried soybeans in the morning, and mix them with salt and pepper and chili noodles. Dad would occasionally drink a sip of wine to warm up. .

Because of the need to practice big characters, Mrs. Chen took the initiative to take over the job of cooking, and stewed vegetables at home every day, which was tasteless.

"doing what?"

Chen smiled and nodded Lin Yuesha's head, "I think you are greedy?"

"Yes."

In winter, there is nothing more attractive than a steaming hot pot meal. It is a joy for the whole family to eat hot pot. However, Xiao Qi, his stepbrother, has not returned home for a long time.

The step-brother is too old and kind, Lin Yuesha wondered if he was taken by the husband to visit his classmates because he looked like a bully, so he was taken to the road to do coolies and do some errands with backpacks.

"When will big brother come back!"

Not seeing each other for some days, Lin Yuesha began to miss the bully.At least with her stepbrother around, she can live a little more comfortably.

"It is said that it was before the Chinese New Year, and now there is heavy snow everywhere in the Northland, and the roads are not easy to walk. It may take a few more days."

According to the custom in the Northland, the twelfth lunar month is the new year, and the family has already prepared the new year's goods as in previous years.

The house in the village collapsed and hadn't been repaired yet. After discussing with Xiao Chenggui, Chen and Xiao Chenggui stayed in the town for the New Year.

During this period of time, the five-spice melon seeds were being cooked, and the fire was burning all day long at home, and the kang was very hot. Xiao Chenggui's old problem did not recur, and it was much better than the day and night coughing before.

Mrs. Chen grew bean sprouts, and planted shallots and leeks in the stove, and they all grew.

The leeks are not very long yet, and Mrs. Chen is reluctant to cut them, but a few slices of tofu were added to the stir-fried tofu a few days ago to borrow flavor, and she plans to save them for the New Year's Eve package of pork dumplings.

"You miss your elder brother so much, don't you want him to sell Spring Festival couplets?"

Mrs. Chen joked to her daughter that there is no shortage of this kind of money in the family now, and the stalls were set up in cold weather, and their hands and feet were frozen after a while.

Now, the family can still make a living selling five-spice melon seeds for a few days, and when the twelfth lunar month is around [-], the family will rest.

"no no."

Lin Yuesha denied it, she was just asking casually.

Tomorrow, I will meet with Jiang Baozhu to go to Yutan Temple. If my stepbrother goes together, please ask the old monk to see if there is a white shadow by my stepbrother. Lin Yuesha is always thinking about this matter.

When it was almost time for dinner, Lin Yuesha asked Chen Shi to rest, went into the kitchen by herself, and began to prepare swiftly.

There is chicken soup at home. She boiled a large pot of sweet potato flour, added mustard, fungus, shredded green and red peppers, and mashed garlic. Crispy soybeans and peanuts, out of the pan.

Parents each have a large bowl, and each has a large spoonful of minced meat. The hot and sour aroma makes people drool.

For dinner, I only ate hot and sour noodles, which was a bit simpler. Lin Yuesha baked a few more layers of pancakes and ate them with hot and sour noodles.

"good to eat!"

After Xiao Chenggui took the first bite, he was full of praise immediately. He took a bite of the pancake when he felt it was spicy.

But after a while, Xiao Chenggui was sweating all over his body.

"Little girl, did you figure this out by yourself again?"

Chen really doesn't understand how her daughter has so many ideas, every one of them is enough to set up a stall in the town.

"Yes, a few days ago I gave Mr. Zhang amber walnut kernels, and I heard a few words from the cook in the house."

Lin Yuesha was taken care of by Mrs. Zhang, and she came to thank her twice, and always sent some fresh snacks each time.

Mr. Zhang had a general impression of the sweet and greasy amber walnut kernels, and they were all taken by Miss Zhang and his wife. For this reason, Lin Yuesha still had a chance to make friends with Zhang Qinger, the daughter of the county magistrate.

"Excuse me, is Miss Lin at home?"

A maid wearing a light green jacket came in at the door.

Lin Yuesha was fanning herself, she hurriedly raised the curtain and went out, when she saw someone coming, she immediately said, "Sister Light Green, I'm here!"

Compared with Mr. Zhang's house, the house is not as big as his stove. This is the first time Light Green came to the door, which made Lin Yuesha feel a little uneasy. She didn't know where to invite people to entertain her. There was no flower hall at home.

"Miss Lin, slaves will not go in, our lady invites you to talk at the mansion tomorrow."

Light green blinked and winked at Lin Yuesha.

This Miss Zhang Qing'er doesn't look like Mrs. Zhang's daughter at all. She has a simple and honest face, and she is an authentic foodie.

The last time Lin Yuesha sent amber walnuts, Zhang Qinger took the initiative to stop her. After a few words, Zhang Qinger immediately regarded Lin Yuesha as a confidant, and the two exchanged ideas about eating.

After not seeing each other for a few days, Zhang Qing'er couldn't bear it anymore, and begged her parents to bring Lin Yuesha to the house.

"Is it okay in the future?"

Lin Yuesha was a little embarrassed, she agreed to Jiang Baozhu, and would accompany Jiang Baozhu to Yutan Temple to offer incense tomorrow.

This is what the two of them had already agreed upon. She has nothing important to do, so she must not break her promise.

"The servant girl will go back and talk to my lady."

Light Green sent a message and was about to go back when Lin Yuesha stopped her, "Sister Light Green, wait for me first."

Lin Yuesha went to the kitchen, poured out the hot and sour rice noodle soup, added seasonings and minced meat, dried the noodle, and handed it to Light Green.

"This is the hot and sour powder I made. When you get to the house, pour the powder into the soup pot, stir it and eat it."

There is a small red clay stove on the carriage that can be heated by light green. The distance is not far, so it won't get cold.

"That servant thanked Miss Yuesha on behalf of my lady."

There was something delicious, and Light Green left happily.

Lin Yuesha sent people to the carriage, and then turned back.She admits that she is a bit utilitarian. No matter what era she is in, there are people above who are easy to handle. Since she was rewarded by Mr. Zhang, the family business has been smoother, and there have been fewer troubles.

If the county magistrate's daughter had a pampered personality, Lin Yuesha would just keep her at arm's length, but Zhang Qing'er has a delicate temperament, no airs, and is easy to get along with.

Talking about eating and drinking with Zhang Qing'er, Lin Yuesha found the sense of accomplishment in her previous life, and the two had very similar temperaments.
