Chapter 70 Hercules

In the morning, I went to the kitchen to look around, and saw that there were still a few big bones, so I decided to make a big bone soup and add some medicinal materials to strengthen the body, which was also a part of her heart.

At other times, she can't see or care about it, but at least she can't let these people help her build a house and lose her health.

Zhu Fangming knew that building a house was a lot of work, and he couldn't help now, let alone disturb others, so he pulled Su Ya to get up and leave.

Lian Yao had something on her mind, so she didn't stay longer.However, they were still invited to have lunch at noon, Zhu Fangming did not refuse, and readily agreed.Aunt Fat was supposed to take care of Lian Yao's three meals a day, so she often came here to eat.

As soon as they left, Lian Yao went to the room to get the medicinal materials and then went to the kitchen.The fat aunt has already cleaned the mung beans and soaked them in hot water, and there are two big pots of water sitting on the stove.He set up another frying pan and boiled water for blanching the big bones.

Lian Yao took the big bone out of the refrigerator, rinsed it under water, threw it into the pot where the fat aunt had already boiled hot water, skimmed off the blood and foam, and rinsed it twice with well water. Put the soup in a large pot.

"Fat Aunt, do you have any fresh lotus roots at home?" Lian Yao rummaged through the shelves where the vegetables were placed, thinking that it would be good to drink lotus root soup in summer, so she turned to ask Aunt Fat.

The fat aunt picked the beans and said without turning her head: "There are none here, but I have them at home. I went to the town to buy them yesterday, and I didn't use them up, but the leftover stew is enough. Wait, I Go get it."

After explaining to Lian Yao, the fat aunt dropped the beans and went home.Lian Yao turned around and took out the fungus and ginger, planning to make a dish of soaked fungus in vinegar and a dish of ginger in soy sauce.

Black fungus is good for Qi, strengthening the body, nourishing the kidneys and nourishing the stomach. Vinegar can not only appetize and eliminate food, but also antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, and promote calcium absorption. In summer, the cold air is restrained. Eating ginger can increase Yang Qi and prevent heatstroke.

Soaking fungus, cleaning young ginger, and refining Yao are busy, and the fat aunt has brought back some chubby fresh lotus roots from home.Looking at the fungus soaked in the basin and the ginger she washed on her hands, she immediately knew her plan.

"Silly girl, how can such a small amount of food be enough for them? You treat everyone like you, and you only eat a little for a meal? The workers work hard, consume a lot of energy, and eat a lot."

Saying that, the fat aunt took out the dried fungus from the cabinet again, and poured half a basin into it before giving up.

Lian Yao blushed a little while holding the young ginger in her hand.She learned how to cook from her fat aunt, but sometimes the next time the chef only cooks for two or three people, she really doesn't know how much to prepare.

The two spent the whole morning in the kitchen, guarding the two stoves, sweating profusely.

Mung bean paste is boiled first, and set aside to cool.It's almost cool, put sugar, pour it into a clean bucket, and put it in the well for a while.The mung bean paste made in this way is cool without irritating the stomach, and the taste is soft and waxy, which is especially delicious.

The big bone soup stewed into milky white was tumbling, and it also gave off a fragrance. Lian Yao wrapped the medicinal materials prepared before with gauze, and put them in together with the chopped lotus root.

Soy sauce ginger is as simple as draining the water and soaking it in soy sauce.

After the fungus is soaked, wash it, put it in boiling water and scald it, drain it while controlling the water, then pour in vinegar and other seasonings and marinate for a while.

After finishing these, you have to prepare your own lunch.Lian Yao usually eats very simple, but it is the first time for Su Ya to eat at home, and the dishes are naturally richer than usual.It's just that with the comparison, Lian Yao didn't want to make it too wasteful, so she just helped the fat aunt prepare three or four more dishes than usual, and then made the dishes a little more delicate.

Guessing that the mung bean paste was almost cold, Lian Yao didn't let the fat aunt do it, and took out the big bucket that was in the well by himself.After the mung bean paste was delivered, the workers were naturally very grateful, holding the cold and delicious mung bean paste, all of them drank happily.

Lian Yao saw that they were drinking happily, with sincere smiles on their sweat and dusty faces, and felt that her mood was a little bit brighter.So I became more firm in my mind, at least let them eat better and eat more happily every day.But she had already promised her senior brother to go out, and she couldn't bear to rely on the fat aunt alone to cater for so many people, so she could only make a compromise and find another way.

"Fat aunt, it's too hard for you to help them cook every day. Why don't we buy more vegetables and send them over every day, so that they can cook by themselves. But I would like to ask you to make some herbal tea and send them over every day, and then let people Send some watermelons over, do you think it's okay?"

The fat aunt thought for a while, and then agreed: "That's fine. If you give them the money to buy vegetables by themselves, maybe they will save the money. Not to mention how much each person has, it's a waste of money." Thank you for your kindness. This is a good idea. I buy vegetables and send them over every day. It’s so hot that they can’t keep the vegetables, so they must eat them.”

Lian Yao was also very happy to get Aunt Fat's approval: "Okay, I'll prepare the herbal tea in a while, and you take a bag to cook every day. But the big pot of herbal tea is very heavy, so don't bring it yourself, ask them to serve it." The two of you can pick it up."

Fat aunt naturally has no reason not to agree.If it wasn't for Lian Yao here today, she would really have nothing to do with that big bucket of mung bean paste.Since Lian Yao's health has recovered, her strength has also become stronger and stronger, and she is afraid that ordinary men are not as good as her.But that's good, at least no one can bully her.

The two returned to the kitchen to continue their work.

The lotus root bone soup is ready, and there are two big pots full.Take out the medicinal materials and throw them away, wash the gauze and let it dry, it can be used next time.

It's not time for lunch yet, so let's put it aside and let it cool.Just started cooking at home.When the dishes here are ready, it's time for dinner.

Lian Yao asked Fat Aunt to call the family members over, searched around by herself, gave up the tray which was obviously not big enough, and found a large solid and flat wooden board, and put the two pots of soup and two pots of cold salad on it. Above, as soon as the hands were hardened, they were lifted up steadily and walked out.

Halfway there, he was shocked by the workers who saw him and went back to eat after work.

The pot filled with lotus root big bone soup is about the size of a washbasin, and the portion is not light, and with two smaller pots, even they will be enough.

But now such a heavy thing is picked up by a little girl who looks thin and delicate, and it has gone so far, isn't it scary?

They didn't know that these dishes were specially made for them, they just couldn't see a little girl carrying such a heavy thing.At that time, two people rushed up to greet her and took it from Lian Yao's hand.He also smiled and joked: "Oh, girl, I can't see that you have a lot of strength! Where are you going to send this?"

Lian Yao also breathed a sigh of relief.To be honest, she is quite strong, but it is still a bit difficult to carry such a heavy thing with both hands.

Shaking her hands away, Lian Yao thanked her, and said with a smile: "I see it's quite hot, so I made two appetizers for you to try. I don't know if it suits your taste, so don't dislike it."
