Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

After Han Jiazhuang pointed out a few small mistakes in the greenhouse built by Hu Hanyun, Li Zexuan hurriedly left.

"Lady, do you have soybeans or mung beans at home?"

Back in Chang'an's home, Li Zexuan asked Han Yuxi in the courtyard directly.

Yes, he wants to get some bean sprouts to eat.

Although greenhouse vegetables can provide vegetables on a large scale in winter, they can’t quench their immediate thirst. It’s less likely to have to wait for nearly two months before they can eat them. Yesterday, the vegetables they ate were all served from the palace of Wei.

It's harmless to pass once or twice, but the more times, it's not beautiful.

In the afternoon, the small piece of bean sprouts in the field of Lao Hu's family made Li Zexuan's eyes bright. It takes a long time for the vegetables in the greenhouse to mature, but bean sprouts are not needed! In this season when vegetables are scarce, the crisp and refreshing bean sprouts feel much better than big fish and meat!

"Msang-gong, there should be green beans at home, but what is a soybean~?"

Han Yuxi heard the sound, thought about it, and asked strangely.

Both mung beans and soybeans have been cultivated in China for thousands of years. They existed before the Western Zhou Dynasty. The ancients called mung beans green beans. Although they are different in words, they have the same pronunciation. Therefore, when Li Zexuan said mung beans, Han Yuxi can also understand his meaning. .

But soy beans are different. At this time, there is no such name as soy beans. It is generally believed that the term "soya bean" was first introduced in the "Kaiyuan Zhanjing" (written between 718 and 726) and "Soybean" in the Tang Dynasty. "Youyang Zazu" and other books appeared, all of which were used in the language of Shu and soybean before.

Regarding soybeans, there is another interesting story. During the reign of Emperor Wenzong Li Ang of the Tang Dynasty, a strange thing happened in the capital city of Chang'an: the price of agricultural soybeans, which was originally a low price, soared overnight, and a stone of soybeans sold for twelve taels of gold! It is said that Tang Wenzong loves big breasted women, and there is a maid surnamed Wang, who flew up to a branch and turned into a phoenix just because of a certain part of the abnormally protruding part.

With this successful precedent, the concubines of the harem deep courtyard began to buy and stock up soy beans in large quantities, and they must eat every meal. Because according to the theory of Chinese medicine, soybean has a certain effect of breast enhancement. With the help of the concubines' panic buying, the price of beans in Chang'an City has risen faster than modern house prices!

"Uh... it's soybeans, lady, do we have soybeans in our house~?"

Li Zexuan patted his head, gathered the memories of this body's predecessor, and quickly changed his words.

"Yeah! Yes! What does Xiang Gong want soybeans and green beans for?"

Han Yuxi responded.

Li Zexuan smiled and said, "Hey! Lady, you will know it then!"

After that, he happily went straight to the kitchen and asked for a scoop of mung beans and a scoop of soybeans from the chef, Aunt Zhao, and soaked the two kinds of beans in clear water. In his previous life, Li Zexuan’s grandmother often made bean sprouts. He is quite familiar with the steps of bean sprouts. Soaking beans in water is only the first step. According to his grandmother’s experience, beans must be soaked for at least 8 hours before proceeding to the next step.

"Sang Gong, what do you make beans for? Is it because you want to grind tofu?"

Han Yuxi followed in, and couldn't help asking after seeing what Li Zexuan had done.

When Li Zexuan heard this, he turned around and looked at Han Yuxi's chest with a smirk and said, "My husband, I only eat tofu, but I can't make tofu!"

"What are you talking about, Xiang Gong? Aunt Zhao is still there!"

Han Yuxi's cheeks were blushing, angrily.

Although she didn't understand what "eat tofu" meant, but seeing the nasty smile on Li Zexuan's face, she guessed what it meant. She secretly said that her mate sometimes looks like a gentleman, sometimes he looks lusty and wicked. It's so special!

Aunt Zhao outside the door quickly coughed and walked away.

Li Zexuan saw Han Yuxi's face ashamed, and couldn't bear to tease her anymore, so he went back to the truth and preached: "Soaking beans for her husband is to let the beans sprout. Although our family has two greenhouses to grow vegetables, if we want to eat the vegetables inside, we don't have to talk about it. It will take two months. After the beans sprout, take the sprouts and stir-fry them in a pot. It is also a delicious dish! Before the vegetables in the greenhouse come out, this dish is a very good substitute!"

Han Yuxi is obviously not the kind of deep boudoir who doesn't eat fireworks and doesn't know about farming. She frowned and said, "Msang Gong, this bean has been soaked in the water, I'm afraid it won't sprout, but it will smell!"

Li Zexuan smiled and said, "Of course I won't let him soak in the water all the time. There will be more steps later! When tomorrow morning, the husband will take out the beans and place them in a bamboo sieve covered with wet gauze. In a basin filled with water, the basin should not be too large, so that the beans can breathe.

The bamboo sieve needs to be covered with another piece of wet gauze, and finally a bowl with a little emphasis is pressed on it. The weight of the bowl can make the bean sprouts stronger. After that, water the beans three to six times a day to keep the beans moist. After drenching, continue to cover it with wet gauze~www.ltnovel.com~ On the fifth day, the bean sprouts on the corners have grown, and there are already roots, ready to eat! "

Han Yuxi listened carefully. At the end, she asked, "Msang-gong, how do you know so much? Have you done it yourself before?"

It was mainly Li Zexuan's pretentious look that made her wonder if Li Zexuan had made bean sprouts before, so she was so surprised.

Li Zexuan touched his nose. Although he had never done it personally, he had seen his grandmother do it many times.

"Ahem! Be it!"

Li Zexuan gave a dry cough and said vaguely: "In any case, lady, you can see what the bean sprouts look like in five days, and you can taste this deliciousness!"

Han Yuxi put his hand in the water basin, gently stroked the soybeans in the basin, and raised her head and said: "Msang Gong, there is also Yanhuang Academy in Zhuangzi that needs you. You still have a lot of work to do. Leave this to your concubine. Come and do it! The concubine body has all remembered the steps you mentioned earlier, and it is not a troublesome matter. The concubine body will definitely do it for you!"

Li Zexuan thought for a while and nodded: "That's good! There is a lady!"

He was very relieved of his wife's ability to do things. In some things, Han Yuxi's carefulness even made him feel inferior. The daughter-in-law he married seemed simple, but it was not.

"Msang-gong, Dad already knows that you are going to promote greenhouse vegetables in the village. He said that since you are confident that you can grow vegetables in the winter through this method, you can use this to make the other six villagers in our family rich in one fell swoop! But Dad said There is one thing you may have overlooked, he asked his concubine to remind you!"

Han Yuxi took his hand out of the basin and suddenly said to Li Zexuan seriously.
