Chapter 11 Wholeheartedly
Qin Shu didn't know what was going on with Shen Jingfang, and after the lunch break, she got busy.
This time, she decided to cook a special meal herself, mostly using ingredients that had not yet been introduced in this era, and they were all introduced in the book.
Fortunately, in Qin Shu's yard, there is a separate kitchen, and naturally there are also cooks.
Qin Shu gave the cook a half-day off, and she would also use the kitchen stove, but she didn't need others to do it. It's always a good idea to be cautious.
Qin Shu made a stewed beef brisket with tomatoes and potatoes and carrots in it. I also made sour and hot shredded potatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, cold tomatoes, fried meat with green peppers, and a dish of fried peanuts, whether it is tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, peanuts, at this time has not been introduced to the Central Plains.
At least, Qin Shu has been passed on for so long, and he hasn't seen it yet.
There is also the sweet potato that You'an values the most.
According to the introduction in the book, sweet potatoes are "dozens of stones per acre, and 20 times better than planting grain", and the land requirements are not high, the adaptability is extremely strong, even if the mountains are barren, the yield is not low, and the taste is good, the practice is simple, it is really a good thing to save the famine.
It's no wonder that You'an values it.
Therefore, Qin Shu did not make the sweet potatoes into complex things, but simply steamed and boiled, and also prepared two pieces of raw sweet potatoes, which were not treated except for washing.
The staple food is the corn tortillas made by Qin Shu, and the soup is corn sweet potato porridge.
Corn yields are high and drought resistant, so You'an will be very interested.
Because Qin Shu hadn't cooked for a long time, she was not familiar with the use of the stove, and she was the only one who was quite in a hurry, and it took her a lot of time to cook.
It wasn't until the time of the lamp that she barely did it.
You'an seemed to be thinking about this meal in his heart, and he happened to come over.
"You're just in time, serve me food!"
Qin Shu's small kitchen was set up in the east ear room, and when Qin Shu saw him coming, he hurriedly said with a smile.
By this time, the rain outside had stopped.
Qin Shu changed out of silk clothes, removed the hairpin ring, and put on a cotton dress, a red jacket and a white skirt, and an apron around her waist.
When Qin Youan saw her, his expression couldn't help but be a little trance-like, remembering the years he had lived in Xiao Qinzhuang.
The heart that was originally full of displeasure and anger was immediately replaced by a kind of warmth.
No matter how his identity and status change, his mother is still the mother he used to be.
His mother's attitude towards him has never changed.
She still values him and loves him as much as she did back then.
In addition, Qin Youan also suddenly discovered that after a few years, the appearance of his mother has not changed much.
While Qin Youan sighed, he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
Mother, who is it?
He already knew the difference between his mother, and his mother didn't have much defense against him, and she didn't hide many things from him. And he never asked much, just surprised and confused, always popping up from time to time and bothering him.
However, he has strong self-control, and he has great trust, respect and even admiration for his mother.
As he said before, if his mother didn't tell him, he wouldn't ask more.
"What's the daze? Don't go yet! Qin Shu saw him standing still in the courtyard, and hurriedly urged.
Qin Youan came back to his senses at this time, stepped forward with a smile, and skillfully stepped forward to serve the dishes with dishes and chopsticks, just like he did when he was a child.
In the hall, the food was set, and the candles illuminated the hall very brightly.
Qin Shu didn't let anyone wait, and let them all go down, only their mother and son.
Qin Shu introduced the dishes on the table to him, and told him what they were made of.
Qin Youan looked at the table full of food, his eyes were bright, and his face was even more amazed.
Even in the years he was emperor, he had never eaten these things.
He had seen the so-called chili pepper, but unfortunately, it was only seen as an ornamental plant at that time, and no one had eaten it yet. What's more, he was already old at that time.
"Let's eat!" Qin Shu couldn't help but remind him funny when he saw that he didn't move his chopsticks and just looked at the food in a daze.
Qin Youan came back to his senses, nodded, and carefully pinched a chopstick, scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Because he had eaten a raw tomato before, he was still very curious about other methods.
After taking a breath, he chewed and ate slowly, his eyes lit up, but he didn't clip it a second time, but went to pick other dishes. It wasn't until he had eaten all the other dishes that the whole person seemed to be completely relaxed, and he looked at Qin Shu with a smile on his lips and said, "Mother, the food you cook is still so delicious, no one can compare to you." ”
Qin Shu couldn't help but smile when she heard this.
She is self-aware, and her cooking skills can only be regarded as average. However, the vegetables grown in the space are more delicious than the outside. That's why she adds points to her cooking skills. Besides, he had never eaten these things before, so he naturally thought the novelty was delicious.
"Try this!" Qin Shu took a piece of steamed sweet potato and gave it to him, it was not particularly hot anymore, and it was just right to eat it now.
Qin Youan took it, peeled the skin, took a bite, and put it in his mouth, the whole person was stunned for a moment, and then, he frowned, looked at the sweet potato in his hand seriously, and slowly chewed and swallowed.
Only then did he hurriedly ask, "Mother, is this...... Can this sweet potato really yield dozens of stones per mu? ”
With such a delicious and satisfying thing, the yield per mu is really so high?
Even if he has always been in front of Mount Tai and his face does not change, at this time, he can't calm down.
The surprise was too big to believe.
Originally, you thought that something with such a high yield per mu would not be too delicious!
Qin Shu nodded vigorously again in his expectant gaze.
He pointed to another plate and said, "This is a raw sweet potato, you can taste it too!" ”
Qin Youan really took the cut piece and took a bite, it was sweet and crispy, and it had another taste
Sweet, crunchy and refreshing, with a different flavor.
"Don't sigh, let's talk about it after eating." Qin Shu said.
Qin Youan nodded, picked up a tortilla and ate it.
It's just that this time, he didn't enjoy it as much as he did when he ate sweet potatoes, and he frowned at first, but after two bites, he took a big bite with a blank face.
No matter how delicious sweet potatoes are, they are not a staple food.
And this corn tortilla, although not too delicious, can be eaten as the main food like wheat and rice, and the yield per mu is higher than theirs, so he is not satisfied.
When he thought of this, he thought that the tortillas were very delicious.
Qin Shu's meals, in addition to the staple food, he basically ate all the food again, and even drank all the porridge.
Seeing that he was a little overwhelmed, Qin Shu asked him to stand up and walk around, and asked people to pack up his things.
After eating, Qin Youan and Qin Shu stood in front of the open window together, looking at the dark night sky outside, Qin Youan suddenly turned around and said to Qin Shu with a sigh: "Mother, these are all life-saving things, they are priceless treasures, with them, they will save thousands of people." ”
Although the tone was as flat as possible, I could still hear the excitement and excitement mixed in it, and even relieved.
Although Qin Youan is not the emperor now, and this country is not his, he can clearly distinguish his current identity, but most of the time, he is still used to looking at problems from the perspective of an emperor.
Especially when it comes to the common people.
In the eyes of others, he has many shortcomings as an emperor, suspicious and cruel, perverse, indiscriminately killing heroes, etc., but one thing is undeniable, he is diligent and loves the people, and he is an emperor who loves the people like a son.
Qin Shu just looked at him with a smile and said, "These things, no matter how good they are, will not play any role in my hands. Only in your hands can they bless the people of the whole world. ”
As she spoke, she sighed softly again and said, "If you hadn't come this far, I wouldn't have taken things out at all." ”
Qin Youan understood what she meant, and said, "Mother rest assured, my son will definitely let them play the maximum effect, and I will not disappoint my mother." ”
Qin Shu nodded, she had already guessed about You'an's identity in her previous life, and she had no doubts about his ability. He is even more convinced of his assurance.
Moreover, she does not have the great ambition of You'an and the noble feelings of the people of the world.
She is a selfish person, and she only values the people she cares about.
Others, don't want to meddle at all.
However, seeing that You'an has such a mind, such a positive attitude, and such positive energy, she is also proud of him and is more willing to do everything to support him.
"How many seeds do you have?" Qin Youan asked.
"And many more!" Qin Shu said, "You can ask for it whenever you want." ”
Qin Youan nodded solemnly, he had something to say to her, but his lips squirmed for a long time, but he didn't know where to start.
The whole heart seemed to be filled with a kind of forbearance and excitement, which made him unable to calm down.
This is his mother, a mother who loves him with all her heart and thinks about him.
If it weren't for the fact that he was her son and trusted him, how could his mother have taken things out defenselessly!
He knew that his mother was not doing it for his gratitude or for what he wanted from him.
It's just because he is her favorite son.
So, as long as he needs it, she will give him everything without reservation.
Whether it is in the past life or in this life, only his mother will be so gratuitous and selfless to treat him.
Others......
Don't say it!
"Mother, you are so good to your son." Qin Youan suddenly stretched out his arm and hugged Qin Shu, and muttered softly.
At this moment, he forgot the so-called etiquette and rules, and he just wanted to be as close to his mother as he did when he was a child.
Ever since he became a marshal, it seems that he hasn't done it again.
In addition to maintaining his prestige as a marshal, it is also because he has grown up, and it is really inappropriate to make such a move.
But at this moment, he kicked all these scruples away, and if he didn't do so, he would not be able to express the surging and fierce emotions in his heart at the moment.
Only in front of his mother can he be so careless, showing his extremely naïve side of being attached to his mother.
And his mother would never laugh at him for this.
