Chapter 27

While Zhong Qiling was doing other things, Shen Dewei went to buy his share of natural food and some condiments that Zhong Qiling had mentioned according to Zhong Qiling's instructions.As soon as I got to the kitchen, I heard Zhong Qiling happily say: "Okay, you're done! Just wait for the tune... Oh, there's no need to wait, you're back too. Then quickly bring the things to me."

As soon as Zhong Qiling looked up, she saw Shen Dewei, and immediately ran in front of Shen Dewei, took all kinds of things from Shen Dewei's hands, in large and small bags, and ran to the kitchen.Then, those that should be sorted are put away again, and those that should be used are also taken out. Finally, Zhong Qiling looked at the wild vegetables neatly placed in the whole kitchen and said: "It's finally done, and I don't know what the mayor and uncles are doing." When will it come?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the cheerful voice of the hut rang out: "A visitor has arrived... A visitor has arrived... Outside is Mayor Rex of Jotla and..."

"Then open the door quickly! The hut." Zhong Qiling gave instructions before the hut finished speaking, and she also hurried to the door, after all, as a junior, it is right to greet the elders.

"Hi everyone!" Zhong Qiling greeted a small group of people standing outside the door.

"Little Qiling~"

"Hello Qiling."

"Qi Ling, be good."

Those who looked young or looked like uncles and aunts also greeted Zhong Qiling with a smile.In the end, it was Mayor Rex who looked at everyone and signaled everyone to calm down, and then said to Zhong Qiling: "Qi Ling, I have called everyone here. How are you going to entertain everyone?"

"Of course we have to treat everyone well with delicious food." Zhong Qiling said proudly.

"Delicious food? Treats?! No need, we didn't help anything. Go, go. Go back." Soon two or three of them who didn't quite understand turned around and were about to leave.After all, they don't know what's going on with the Zhong family.

"Hey, wait, wait." Zhong Qiling hurried over to close the door, then went to the two aunts who wanted to leave and said aggrievedly: "If you don't listen to what I said about the delicious food, you have to leave ?”

"Yes, yes, yes. Listen, listen and decide. You are not too young, why are you so impatient." Mayor Rex had already guessed something, so he also helped Zhong Qiling.

"Really?" They didn't understand why the mayor made such a change. Obviously, the mayor was also very helpful to the Zhong family.However, when they saw the mayor wink at them secretly, they responded suspiciously: "Okay, let's listen first. But I want to make it clear that I have never helped little Qiling. I don’t dare to come and eat and drink.”

"Me too." The other one hastened to say, "However, as the mayor said, I'd better listen to it first. As long as I don't waste Xiao Qiling's money and eat some simple things, I can do it too." yo~"

"Hehe. Thank you, auntie, but come on, follow me, and you will understand." Zhong Qiling didn't say anything clearly, but turned around and said, "Just look at it, and you will understand. I didn't spend money to buy things, come on Repay everyone."

Those uncles and aunts stood still and looked at each other, not knowing what Zhong Qiling was going to do.Although Rex also guessed some, but he is not sure.So I just told everyone: "Since Xiao Qiling has said so, everyone will know after going to see it. Let's go."

"Well. Let's take a look. It's not the same as what you think." Shen Dewei, who had been standing by the side, also helped Zhong Qiling speak out.After all, he could see clearly that for Zhong Qiling, it had nothing to do with money at all. After the research institute confirmed the nutritional value of these wild vegetables, she just wanted to share the good things she knew with her relatives and friends. Just joy.

"En. Let's go." Everyone followed after receiving Shen Dewei's affirmation.After all, Shen Dewei has been living with Zhong Qiling recently, and they have all heard of it.Since the other party said so, it was really different from what they thought.

"Okay, have you seen it? These are the wild vegetables I picked specially to thank everyone." After Zhong Qiling finished speaking, everyone looked at the kitchen and said nothing. She was afraid that everyone would not believe it, so she quickly added: "They are all natural. Vegetables, and the research institute has done research, the nutritional value is better than ordinary natural vegetables.”

"This... this..." Even Mayor Rex, who had already figured it out, was shocked. Is this true?He originally thought that it was normal for Xiao Qiling to wander outside for ten days, eat wild vegetables and test their value.

However, when he saw that the entire kitchen of more than 30 square meters was full of these natural vegetables, he was shocked and didn't know what to say for a while.Others didn't believe it, and some were shocked.Anyway, for a while, no one spoke.

Zhong Qiling felt a little hairy in her heart. Could it be that everyone dare not try something new?Well, I heard that it takes courage to be the first to eat a crab.After all, they hadn't eaten it before, but she secretly looked at Shen Dewei who was standing next to him, and it was obvious that the other party ate it without any pressure when it was the first time, and even ate it up.She thought, there is no such problem?

Shen Dewei felt Zhong Qiling's gaze, and then looked at the reaction of the people Zhong Qiling had invited.Guess the mood of the other party, but he will not take the initiative to tell the other party now that it is because he came in the name of suspicion before, so he must have been prepared.So, he coughed lightly and reminded Zhong Qiling: "You can show everyone the announcement from the research institute."

"Oh, oh, that's right." Zhong Qiling thought for a while and said, "Small house, enlarge and display the notice from the institute that I received today on the wall behind me, and adjust the size of the words so that everyone can see clearly."

"Okay, master." As soon as the hut finished speaking, the notice from the morning was clearly displayed.

"Great! Congratulations, Qiling." The mayor of Rex was the first to read it, and said to Zhong Qiling sincerely, and then stepped forward to hug her and said, "Qiling, you are amazing, your father If Mom knows, she will be proud of you. Of course, you are also the pride of our small town of Jotla."

"Thank you, Uncle Rex."

"Wow, that's great. Congratulations."

"Congratulations!" Sure enough, after a while, other people came forward to congratulate Zhong Qiling.

"Thank you, thank you everyone." After Zhong Qiling responded one by one, seeing everyone happily looking at the nutritional composition comparison table below, she exclaimed in a low voice.She continued: "Since everyone has seen it, there should be no doubts, right? This is what I am going to entertain you today, because it is all picked in the wild by myself, and it does not cost a penny, so please be sure to keep it." , of course I will give you one point each, please accept it too.”

"It's still too expensive." Rex thought for a while and said, "Just treat us to a good meal, and take it home for us to do, right?"

"That's right. If you eat it, you take it away." Others echoed.

"However, you have also seen that I have picked so many. Even if I eat it every day, I will have to eat it for a long time! So I still want to ask everyone to help me eliminate it. Please, after all, I don't want to eat it every day. These wild vegetables."

Zhong Qiling half-truthfully said: "Besides, judging from the meaning of the notice from the research institute, it is estimated that there will be information released tomorrow. By then, these should not be good things. Before everyone has eaten today, let's Let me use it to entertain you. Otherwise, this will be too common in the future, and I am too embarrassed to use it to entertain people."

"Okay." Everyone thought about it, although they knew that this was Zhong Qiling's modest statement, but such a caring girl wanted to entertain them.Although they thought they were taking advantage of it, they couldn't refute it again and again.

Then Zhong Qiling looked at everyone happily and said: "Anyway, the research institute will announce how to identify these dishes at that time, so I won't say more. Let's do it directly. Come to think of it, everyone is almost hungry. Okay, everyone Look, this is the rice I soaked before everyone came here. Here, I washed and chopped some wild vegetables."

Although Zhong Qiling had never cooked under the watchful eyes of so many people before.However, during this period of time, she has gotten used to being watched by Shen Dewei, so, being watched by these elders who obviously look friendlier than Shen Dewei, she doesn't feel any pressure at all, but feels happy instead.

"These preparations are because I want to cook porridge with wild vegetables." After all, Zhong Qiling really invited so many people to dinner, and the 500 yuan a catty of light rice probably cost her a lot of money, so in the end she settled for the second best , drink porridge.After all, she hasn't got the reward yet, and she doesn't know how much it is, so she doesn't dare to spend too much money.

"By the way, in fact, if time permits, the rice can be soaked for a longer time. This way the cooked porridge will melt in your mouth. I only soaked it for about half an hour today. What about now. I will take the soaked rice with me. Pour the water into the pot together, and then add another 6 bowls of water. Generally speaking, it is best to add enough water to cook porridge at one time, and adding water in the middle will affect the taste, so I will add more.”

Zhong Qiling moved while talking, and then looked at everyone and said: "Now that the water is added, let's boil the water, boil it, boil it, let's cook it on a low heat for about half an hour, and then add salt and chop it at that time." Good wild vegetables go in. When the vegetables are cooked, they come out of the pan. Isn’t it very simple?”

"Well, it's very simple. I don't know how it tastes." said the young-looking mother-in-law I met before.

"Hey, everyone will know when the time comes." Zhong Qiling didn't say much, then walked to the side, picked up the water chestnut vine and said, "Anyway, when the wild vegetable porridge needs to be cooked for a long time, let's take advantage of this time to deal with it." Other wild vegetables. Now, I’m going to make cold water chestnut vine.”

Everyone else just looked at the wild vegetables in Zhong Qiling's hands strangely, waiting for her next words.On the contrary, Shen Dewei's eyes lit up. He had only eaten this dish once, but his impression was very deep.That kind of strong fragrance, that kind of elasticity, fresh and refreshing... Mmm - Shen Dewei swallowed secretly, it seems that his appetite for appetite has increased recently, and he doesn't know if it's good or not.

As soon as Shen De looked up, he saw Zhong Qiling happily continuing to introduce how to make water chestnut rattan.Shen Dewei was stunned for a moment. It turned out that when a person was doing his happiest thing, he had such an expression and such a radiant look that he couldn't take his eyes off.As for what the other party said later, Shen Dewei couldn't hear clearly. When he saw the happy face, the radiant eyes, and the opening and closing of the mouth, he felt that his mouth was a little dry, and unconsciously licked it. Licked his lips.

"Shen Dewei, Shen Dewei...Shen Dewei?"

Zhong Qiling looked at Shen Dewei strangely, not knowing what he was thinking, his mind was too distracted, if he didn't want to watch her cook, just leave, she didn't let him stay to watch, so Zhong Qiling raised her voice again and called him : "Shen Dewei, Captain Shen!"

"What's the matter?" Shen Dewei put away his wandering thoughts, looked up at Zhong Qiling and asked.

"Well. I found that there seems to be not enough bowls and plates. Can you go to the supermarket and buy some for me?" Otherwise, you, an idler who only eats but does not cook, would be bored standing here. Since the speed is so fast, go out for a walk Bar.Zhong Qiling complained in her heart about Shen Dewei's distraction just now.

"Okay. How much do I need to buy?"

"Buy three big bowls, three plates, and a set of four small bowls." Zhong Qiling looked at her things and said.

"Well. Then wait a moment. I'll be back in five minutes." Shen Dewei left after speaking.

On the contrary, all the people invited by Zhong Qiling watched the interaction between Zhong Qiling and Shen Dewei with their mouths wide open.After Shen Dewei left, they all looked at Zhong Qiling with wicked smiles and said, "Unexpectedly, it's time for Xiao Qiling to fall in love."

"That's right! Captain Shen, he's a nice guy." Rex also nodded in agreement.

"You..." Zhong Qiling looked at them with some embarrassment and said, "Forget about others, uncle mayor, you should know why he is here?"

"I know, I know." Rex nodded and smiled, "But, who knows if it's different now, right?"

"That's right, that's right! It's good to have a love for a long time." An aunt also winked at Zhong Qiling and said.

"I..." Zhong Qiling wanted to refute, but she finally gave up when she saw expressions that I understood and I knew.

Changed the topic and said: "Okay, let's make wild vegetable salad now. Ordinary salads are divided into fruit salads, which are sweet, or vegetable salads, and salty. Sweet salad dressings can be bought directly in supermarkets. But salty salads are very salty. Not much, so we're going to make the salty salad dressing first, and this..."

"Haha~"

"Haha~"

A group of people who were not young, but definitely not more than five or sixty years old, couldn't help laughing after seeing Zhong Qiling change the subject so stiffly.

"Hmph, do you want to hear it or not? When the time comes, I won't do it, and I won't teach you again. Hmph!" Zhong Qiling threw down such a sentence in anger and stared at them.

"Pfft hahaha~"

This result, of course, made everyone laugh even more.Zhong Qiling had no choice but to stir the porridge and didn't speak anymore. How could she like that robot-like facial paralysis? She doesn't have self-abuse disorder!
When Shen Dewei came back, he looked at the elders who couldn't stop laughing with a bewildered face, and smiled at himself from time to time.He hurriedly checked his clothes and found nothing unusual.In the end, Shen Dewei saw that they were still laughing, and some of them looked at him, and then at Zhong Qiling. He couldn't find the reason, so he couldn't stand it anymore, so he said, I'll go back to my room first if I have nothing to do. up.

In the end, everyone smelled the aroma of the porridge, and knew that the time should not be too far away, so there was no need to waste time.He resisted and said: "Okay, okay, let's stop laughing. Let's continue talking. Xiao Qiling, we are still waiting for your wild vegetable salad."

"En. Don't laugh anymore." Zhong Qiling smiled seriously, and then she looked at a mother-in-law who wanted to laugh and said, "It's agreed not to laugh!" Seeing that the mother-in-law straightened her face, she continued. : "First of all, we have to make our own salty salad dressing. After all, supermarkets only sell sweet ones, which are used for fruit salads. Now we are going to make vegetable salads, of course, salty ones are the best. The first step, we choose Pour the fine salad oil into the bowl. In the second step, break out an egg and separate the egg yolk with an egg separator, because we only need the egg yolk. Well, the next step is the third step, put the egg yolk Put it in a bowl, and then add mustard oil, pepper, salt, or vinegar one by one, your favorite seasonings come in, the fourth step is to stir until the ingredients are emulsified. "

After Zhong Qiling saw that the ingredients in the automatic mixing bowl were completely emulsified, he turned off the switch to stop.Then he continued: "Because the wild vegetable salad does not need to be heated, we generally choose the tenderest part to make it. As for the type of wild vegetables, it depends on one's favorite. Then I will cut the purple cloud, Kochia, Viola, and Viola. Vegetables, scissors, and of course this washed red viburnum. Look, does it look good now? Appetite?"

"Sure enough, they are all convenient and simple styles! Xiao Qiling has gone home these few days, and has never gone out. Is she just studying these at home?"

"Of course. After all, seeing such natural vegetables, how could I be willing not to make them delicious!" Zhong Qiling looked at the wild vegetables intentionally and said fiercely.
