Chapter 1092: Leisurely Pastoral Life (1)
The medicinal diet is boiled well, and it is already more than half of the hour. However, Yunqing didn't fall asleep because he was uncomfortable.
Seeing Grandma Quan bring medicinal food, Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief. Since he was a child, what he hated most was drinking medicine, and he was bitter to death.
There were calming herbs in the medicinal diet, and Yunqing fell asleep not long after eating the medicinal diet.
Mama Quan blew out the candle and went out with the bowl. Because Yunqing was sick, Mama Quan was not at ease, so she simply slept outside. In case something happened to Yunqing, she knew it too.
Yunqing had a good night's sleep.
Similarly, Ok-hee also had a good night's sleep this night. The sky was bright, and a 'oh oh oh' rooster crow sounded. It didn't take long for Yuxi to hear movement outside, and immediately called Meilan and said, "Go and see what's going on?"
After a while, Meilan came over and said, "Princess, it's the second young master, they got up to practice." ”
Yuxi looked out through the window, it was not yet dawn! Usually at this time, the triplets couldn't get up in bed: "Why did they get up so early today?"
Meilan pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The second young master said that they want to learn from that Zu Ti and Liu Kun, smell the chickens and dance." ”
The allusion that Zu Ti and Liu Kun danced when they heard the chickens was told by Yuxi to the triplets. Hearing this, Yuxi smiled and said, "It would be nice if they could **** to persevere." In this way, she doesn't have to worry about triplets anymore.
After saying this, Yuxi also got up. When I walked out of the house, I saw a foggy outside, as if draped in a white curtain.
Yuxi saw that the triplets were very involved in practice, so he didn't bother, and entered the main hall and started boxing. Since Yunqing set out to fight Yuxi, he has not had time to exercise, and he has not boxed for more than half a year, and Yuxi feels that his whole body is stiff.
After a full set of punches, Yuxi felt that his bones were about to fall apart. took the towel from Meilan's hand, and she wiped her sweat while saying, "I still have to **** persist in the future." ”
The breakfast food was very light, with japonica rice porridge and steamed buns with side dishes, as well as four eggs, not even fried dough sticks.
Brother Rui sat down on the table, looked at the things on the table, and said, "Mother, why don't you have goat milk egg custard?" It's not that Brother Rui likes to eat goat milk egg custard, but Yuxi said that if you insist on eating goat milk egg custard, you can grow as strong as Yunqing in the future. Therefore, Brother Rui **** eats goat milk egg custard cleanly.
Yuxi smiled and said, "There will be tomorrow." ”
Because they have to practice every day in the morning, the triplets have always had a very good appetite. This day was no exception, the porridge, steamed buns and eggs were all eaten.
Brother You saw that the chicken soup hadn't come up yet, so he put down his chopsticks and said, "Mother, I'm full." "It's not much, but it tastes good. Fortunately, my mother brought my mother Bai over, otherwise there would be no such delicious food.
Yuxi hummed and said, "Then you go to the front yard!" Mr. was placed in the front yard, so the triplets were going to the front yard for class.
Not long after the triplets went to the front yard, Bai's mother entered the house and replied: "Princess, the ingredients for making mung bean cake are ready." ”
Yuxi washed his hands before entering the kitchen, looked at the ingredients on the table, and nodded slightly.
Mung bean cake is not complicated to make, and Yuxi has learned it by heart before. Except that it was a little rusty at the beginning, the movements were very neat after getting started.
After the mung bean cake is formed, put it in a steamer and steam. The heat and time are also very important, whether the fire is large or small or the time is short, it will affect the taste. However, Yuxi will definitely not wait in front of the stove, and how to grasp the heat and time will be handed over to Mother Bai.
Yuxi said to Bai's mother: "When the pastry is cooked, I will bring it to the second young master and them to eat." "The pastry tastes its best when it comes out of the pan.
Mother Bai nodded, "Yes." ”
Said to Meilan: "Go outside for a walk." "Now is the time to plant potatoes, and she's going to go to the fields.
Meilan persuaded: "Princess, it rained yesterday, and now the road outside is not very easy." "As for the clothes and shoes worn by the princess, they will get dirty when you go out.
Yuxi was already prepared and said, "Take out that set of bean-green muslin clothes." Yuxi asked the sewing room to make three sets of dark muslin clothes, and the dark clothes were dirty.
It is said that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, and after Yuxi changed into this set of bean green muslin clothes, he was much more old-fashioned than before. Meilan frowned when she saw it: "Princess, let's change your clothes, this dress is too ugly." "This dress makes the princess several years old
Yuxi said indifferently: "We are in the farm, and we are not going to meet guests, what are we doing in such glamorous clothes?" Besides, I am the mother of six children, and if I look old, I will look old!" If it weren't for the coarse cloth clothes being too rough and she was uncomfortable to wear, Yuxi wouldn't have used muslin to make clothes. Therefore, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.
Meilan had no choice, so she also went to change her clothes.
At this time, Teng Xin, the leader of the guards, came in and replied: "Princess, Zhuang Tou is waiting outside, asking to see the princess." ”
Yuxi called Meilan with a smile and said, "Come out with me!" It was she who ordered Han Dong to come over in the morning, saying that she would go to the field today to have a look.
It was a cloudy day, and the ground was very humid due to the rain yesterday. Yuxi walked like a fly, and Meilan was terrified when she watched it on the side, afraid that Yuxi would accidentally fall.
Yuxi said with a smile: "You don't have to worry so much, I'm not a paper paste, where is it so easy to fall." ”
Han Dong took Yuxi to a sloping field and said, "Now all wheat is planted in this field, and only artichoke is planted on the sloping land. "Henan and Shanxi provinces grow two crops of artichoke a year, and northwest regions such as Gansu and Shaanxi are still mainly planted with wheat.
On the slope, there was an old man dressed in gray coarse cloth who was doing something, and he knew Yuxi's identity and was about to kneel down and kowtow to make a big salute.
Yuxi asked Meilan to see someone to support her, and said with a smile: "This ground is damp, and if you kneel down, your clothes will be wet, and if you get sick, it will be my sin." She didn't plan to plant it herself, but she came to learn about the situation with Han Dong and take a look at the whole picture of Zhuangzi by the way.
The old man hurriedly said that he didn't dare.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Old man, you can go with your business!" After speaking, he continued to walk up.
Standing on a high place, looking at the green patch below, a smile appeared on Yuxi's face. Turning his head, Yuxi said to Han Dong: "I saw a field yesterday, the wheat in that field is growing very poorly, and even the wheat seedlings that come out are dry and yellow, this matter must be taken seriously." Although Yuxi knew what kinds of pests there were in wheat, she didn't know what kind of disease she had in the wheat in the field she saw yesterday.
Han Dong looked at Yuxi and said helplessly: "That field is too fat, and the wheat seedlings are burned to death." Seeing Yuxi's puzzled face, Han Dong said: "That mother-in-law didn't tell her the man when she got fat, and then went out to visit relatives." Her man didn't know that he had fattened the field again. The woman was also a Madaha, and when she came back, she forgot about it. It wasn't until the wheat seedlings grew wrong that I asked the old farmers who had accumulated years to see the problem, and I only found out about it the day before yesterday. "Hejiazhuang has more than 800 acres of land, which are leased to tenants for planting.
Meilan was speechless: "Are there still such careless people?" The husband and wife did this, and the harvest of this field was gone.
Han Dong said helplessly: "Who said it wasn't? The husband and wife quarreled about it, and the mother-in-law took the child back to her parents' house." ”
Meilan felt incredible: "She did something wrong and took the child back to her parents' house?"
Yuxi chuckled and said, "This matter between husband and wife is not easy for outsiders to criticize. After speaking, Yuxi said to Han Dong: "Deal with this matter as soon as possible, don't let this field be wasted." ”
Han Dong nodded hurriedly.
Yuxi walked around the village, and when he returned to the courtyard, it was already close to lunch.
When the triplets saw Yuxi, they surrounded him, and Brother You said happily: "Mother, the mung bean cake you made is so delicious, I ate four pieces." "Brother You doesn't have a lot of sweets, but he knows that the mung bean cake is made by Yuxi himself, and he eats four pieces very face-savingly.
Mother Bai interjected and said, "Princess, there are only two mung bean cakes left in your making." "Yuxi didn't do much, so he only made one plate, a total of sixteen pieces. The two pieces that were not eaten were specially left by Bai's mother for Yuxi to taste herself.
Yuxi said with a smile on his face: "Bring me a piece and see if it is really as delicious as Ayou said?"
Brother You said unhappily: "Mother, why don't you always believe what I say?"
Yuxi pinched Brother You'er's ears and said, "Mother is afraid that you will eat so much if it is not delicious in order to make your mother happy, so it is my mother's fault." ”
Brother You said helplessly: "Mother, do I look so stupid? ”
Yuxi deliberately teased: "This is hard to say. ”
The mung bean cake has been kept hot in the pot, and it is still steaming when it is taken out. Yuxi took a bite and chewed it carefully, swallowed it and said with a smile: "The taste is average." "It's not unpleasant, but it's definitely not delicious.
Brother You said: "Mother, you are so demanding of yourself. "He thought it was delicious anyway.
Yuxi finished eating the pastry in his hand, cleaned his hands and said: "The mung bean cake with a delicate taste and mellow taste is really delicious." "In the past, the mung bean cake made was delicious, and the craftsmanship of the white mother was almost good.
In the afternoon, Yuxi had nothing to do and read a book again. I was tired of walking outside, and on the way back, I saw a peasant woman with two cabbages in her box.
Yuxi's mind suddenly flashed, and she said to Meilan: "Go and ask Han Dong to send some cabbage." ”
Meilan was a little strange, but she didn't ask much, nodded and said, "I'll let someone tell Han Zhuangtou." ”
Two quarters of an hour later, Han Dong personally sent a basket of Chinese cabbage, more than a dozen.
Mother Bai looked at the big basket of cabbage and said, "Princess, we won't be able to eat so many cabbages for a while!"
Yuxi shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm going to make spicy cabbage." It was only when she saw the two cabbages that this thought flashed in her mind. Speaking of which, after so many years, she has forgotten many things in her previous life.
Mother Bai was a little surprised and said, "Spicy cabbage?" She had never heard of such a dish.
Yuxi smiled and said, "I also saw it from the book, so let's give it a try first." If it is delicious and can be promoted, it can be regarded as adding a dish to the people's table. ”
Mother Bai asked, "Then what do you want to prepare?"
Yuxi thought for a while and said, "Garlic, green onions, ginger, chili powder, white sugar, carrots, leeks." The dish spread from Jiangnan to the capital, and later to Zhuangzi, where she was imprisoned. She hadn't done much of it at the time, so she still remembered the rough steps.
In the evening, when the triplets returned, they saw Yuxi sitting in the courtyard in a blue muslin dress, holding a brush in his hand to apply red things to the cabbage.
The three brothers all felt very surprised, they had seen too much of Yuxi's handling of government affairs, and this was the first time they had seen each other. Brother You squatted down and asked, "Mother, what are you doing?"
Yuxi smiled and said, "I'm making spicy cabbage! Wait a few days, and you will be able to eat it." ”
Brother Xuan looked disgusted: "Mother, can you eat this thing?" It looks so disgusting, how can such a thing be eaten!
Yuxi nodded and said, "It's edible, it tastes good." But if you don't like it, you can skip it. "Green vegetables and radishes have their own loves, and they are not reluctant to eat them.
When he went to bed at night, Yuxi said to Meilan: "It's been a long time since I've been so idle. "In the past, when I had time to cook and make pastries, I was busy with government affairs from morning to night. It's good now, it's very relaxing.
Meilan said: "If only the princess could do this every day." "Although the princess didn't stop all day, she did simple things, and it didn't matter if she did it well or badly, unlike dealing with government affairs, which was very exhausting after thinking about it.
Yuxi shook his head lightly and said, "If you want to be really idle, you have to wait for Ah Hao to grow up and pick up this burden." "She couldn't have really been easy before that!
Yunqing talked to Tan Tuo late this day.
After talking, Yun Qing said to Tan Tuo: "Lord Tan, go down and rest!" Tan Tuo has been living in the palace since yesterday, and he can rest more without running back.
Tan Tuo said respectfully: "Yes." "Fortunately, he has a good body, otherwise he would not have stopped for a moment from morning to night, where would he be able to stand it. Ahem, Tan Tuo really hopes that Yuxi can come back sooner now. was tossed by the prince like this, and he didn't know how long this old bone could last!
Calling Xu Wu, Yunqing asked, "What did the princess do in Zhuangzi today?"
Xu Wu glanced at Yunqing and whispered a general description of what Yuxi had done.
After listening to this, Yunqing said to himself: "Mung bean cake, spicy cabbage?" Yuxi's life in Hejiazhuang was very leisurely, which was completely different from that in the palace. Thinking of this, Yun Qing felt sullen in his heart.
Xu Wu said: "Mung bean cake is not unusual, but I haven't heard of this spicy cabbage before, and I don't know which book the princess saw it from." ”
Yun Qing came back to his senses and said, "The princess is very knowledgeable, and it is not uncommon to see how to make spicy cabbage from the book. ”
Xu Wu hummed and said, "What the prince said is very true. ”
As he was talking, Xu Daniu said outside: "Lord Wang, Grandma Quan has brought you medicinal food." ”
Yun Qing said to Xu Wu, "You go and bring in the medicinal food!" After eating the medicinal food for a whole day, I feel almost better, and I will not eat it again tomorrow after eating this bowl.
ps: (@^_^@)~, Yuxi Nuhong's cooking skills, but she can handle everything.
