Chapter 303: Pepper Tomatoes
There is nothing else in front of me, three of which are small red peppers that grow (娇jiāo), and the other two pots are tomatoes.
Chi Qiu smiled, in fact, he was talking about a few withered flower pots in the corner, with his knowledge, those are "tomatoes" withered branches, I didn't expect this river to actually use peppers as ornamental plants, you must know that in other places in Wuyue, peppers have been spread.
Yu Hanniang felt that those dead tomatoes were really indecent, so she took the initiative to bring over a few pots of fruits in the greenhouse, in her eyes, tomatoes and red peppers are the same red, I don't know what Chi Qiu said, just take them.
"And tomatoes?" Chi Qiu was overjoyed, Chi Qiu touched the tomatoes in his hand, reached out and picked two of them, found a basin of water, cleaned it, and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Hey, be careful, it's poisonous." Yan Su'er hurriedly stopped it.
Chi Qiu smiled: "I am invincible." ”
One bite down, very refreshing.
Yan Su'er stood there, glared at a pair of watery eyes, and said, "Did you really eat it?" ”
"Eat, eat, this tomato, also called tomato, is both a vegetable and a fruit, eaten raw, (hot) and cooked." As he spoke, he threw the remaining half of the tomatoes into the small pot on his desk: "The taste is still a little sour, and it is good as a hot pot ingredient." ”
Whether this is poisonous or not, there is no need to explain, as long as Chi Qiu does not die, it is clear proof.
Mrs. Yanhu ordered someone to put the tomato pot next to her, scratched one of them with her fingertips, and said indifferently: "Go, order someone to clean it, and cut a few over." ”
Chi Qiu handed the chili pepper to the maid next to him, wanting her to help wash it.
It's a pity that the maid listened to Yan Su'er's words, and she didn't dare to take it.
"The name of this thing is chili, to be precise, it is red chili, the entrance is spicy, the taste is the same as dogwood, non-toxic and harmless, it is an excellent condiment or condiment."
"Oh? Seriously? "Everyone here is wondering.
"Nature." Chi Qiu said to the maid as gently as possible: "You can rest assured to wash, take out the seeds, and put them away, this thing can be widely planted." ”
"This Lu onion girl is spicy, the last time I was in the post house, I used it to make dishes, which shows that the north has been commonly eaten, and we also watched (sexually) flowers at that time, which is really tyrannical." Chi Qiu proudly pointed out these "illiterate" people, including Nazi Shuyou.
The maid carefully held the peppers, her eyes wandering, as if she didn't know what to do.
Chi Qiu thought for a while: "Forget it, I'll do it myself, I have to make some dipping sauce"
It was easy to dip the sauce, and in less than a moment, Chi Qiu prepared a dipping sauce that he thought was good, returned to the hall, and glanced at Zi Shuyou coldly, the corners of his mouth raised.
All the women present were dumbfounded, and they didn't dare to try.
"Isn't this pepper green?" Zishu asked.
"Feiyan girl likes blue clothes, isn't it okay for the little county lord to like red clothes?"
Zishuyou thought for a while, and suddenly realized: "I have eaten chili peppers under it, in fact, this spicy woman eats the best, to drive away cold and dampness, after eating, a little fine sweat is the best, which can make the skin ruddy, delicate and tender, but no."
I know that this pepper is still red. ”
Zi Shuyou suddenly said this, and the women present were all interested.
Hey, are you a little bit of morality, this is my line!
Chi hated and couldn't say anything.
Yan Su'er was the youngest, and she was not afraid of heaven and earth, so she tasted it first, and her eyes were so spicy that her eyes were as red as agate.
"Brother Zishu, you liar, this kind of thing can also be entered." Yan Su'er is so aggrieved.
Zi Shuyou looked at the little county lord Ke (love ài) extremely, and said with a smile: "This sheep (meat rou) brushes the pot, and it is just dipped in that flavor, why does the little county lord eat that chili pepper directly?" ”
"You! You don't make it clear. "This chili pepper has been passed to Wuyue and there are some (Riri) seeds, but the crowd that eats it is not extensive, and the tears of Yan Su'er are spicy, and Mrs. Yanhu looks at her daughter pitifully, and calls to the side of (body shēn), hugging her in her arms, and spoiling her very much.
This guy is going to be tricky, and he also talked and laughed with the little county lord, Chi Qiu was so depressed, and the fingers on his face trembled unconsciously.
Ding Fei's smoke-like eyes looked at Chi Qiu with doubt, and said softly, "Let me taste it?" ”
Seeing her abnormal expression, Chi Qiu understood a little bit when he thought about it, knowing that she wanted to help Chi Qiu break the siege.
"You try."
Ding Feiyansu held chopsticks in his hand, picked up a slice of mutton (meat rou), and after shabu-shabu, put it in the sauce and dipped it slightly.
"More of them." Chi Qiu saw that she was cautious and encouraged.
Feiyan glanced at him, Fang Jing'er tasted it, and she shed tears, she was also afraid, but she felt in her heart that if no one responded to Chi Qiu's way of eating, she was afraid that she would lose Chi Qiu's face, and she would be kind to solve the siege, this person didn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and actually let her dip a little more.
"Feiyan, it's okay, this chili pepper is in Guanzhong and Sichuan, although it is not popular, but I believe that the people of the two places will be extremely spicy in the future, and they will not be able to miss a meal."
The corners of Ding Feiyan's mouth pulled up a subtle arc: "How can it be so magical as you say, or the meal is not successful." ”
Chi Qiu was a little embarrassed, this Zi Shuyou was really a prodigal son, his mouth was quite sweet, and he decided that he couldn't let him steal the limelight, so he grabbed Bai and said: "Shu is a basin, surrounded by mountains, the basin is warm and humid all year round, this pepper can sweat when eaten, and it is the best to remove moisture." Guanzhong and the north are bitter cold places, the winter (Riri) is long, and the chili pepper is eaten in cold weather, which is warmer than drinking a few meals (hot rè) wine. In addition, there are Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan, are all mountainous and hilly, miasma, this place (body shēn) is inland, communication is inconvenient, Nanyang spices, the western regions fennel are difficult to enter, only pepper, simple planting, in the hills to reclaim a small field, sprinkle seeds, the second year can bear fruit, plus some local seasoning specialties, can also enrich the table, increase food (desire yu), so ......"
Chi Qiu's words were reasonable, and Mrs. Yanhu nodded again and again, and Chi Qiu took the opportunity to introduce the tomatoes for a while, and trumpeted the benefits of extensive cultivation of peanuts, tomatoes, and peppers.
These crops do not occupy good land, and are extremely drought tolerant, and Yan Su'er even immediately ordered someone to bring a pen and paper, carefully recorded, and prepared to plant next year.
"I didn't expect Chi Gongzi to be interested in the geography and environment of the world
, quite familiar. A chill flashed in Lady Yanhu's eyes, she had already understood the affairs of the government, and quickly conceived some discordant thoughts in her mind, what if the other princes also knew about these benefits? This Chi Qiu is really extraordinary, and his insights and rhetoric are eloquent, which is refreshing.
Chi Qiu also felt a trace of grotesque atmosphere, and suddenly woke up, I wanted to introduce the matter of sweet potatoes and corn (qingqing), but now I feel that those two crops are comparable to strategic materials, and this matter is better not to be publicized, so he said euphemistically: "These are all dishes, if they can be promoted, the people's table has a few more choices, especially you see, this tomato, pepper potted plants can also be planted, presumably in the greenhouse over the years, some people have studied, how to publicize, Maybe you can try to breed at home regardless of the solar terms, so that in addition to Chinese cabbage, there may be melons and fruits such as tomatoes in winter. ”
Ding Feiyan was secretly surprised when he heard this, he always felt that Chi Qiu was quick in the past, but now it seems that this agility probably comes from being well-informed.
The little county lord glanced at him happily, seeing that Chi Qiu was talking extraordinary, he was also happy in his heart, and he was worried when he saw Ding Feiyan's beautiful expression.
Li Dongming's heart was also moved when he heard this: "This pool hatred, but it is really interesting, I thought that at this time it was just a speculative person, a little talented, I thought of Yanhu to have a future, but I didn't expect it, but it was really three religions and nine streams have contact, but this agricultural statement, it makes me extremely ashamed, I Li Dongming thinks that I am loyal to Yanhu and dedicated to handling the case, but I have never put forward this practical opinion, not to mention anything else, this tomato, Mrs. also grows it at home, why did I never want to try it?" ”
Immediately got up (身shēn) and said: "If this thing can be cultivated indoors, Li is willing to try it at home." ”
Li Dongming thought about it and understood that if Mrs. Ji Qiu was impressed today, it would be better to be closer in the future. I have already tasted the taste of tomatoes, which are sour and juicy, not very good, but it is still extremely rare to have this kind of melon and fruit to eat in winter. It's better to take this errand, no matter what, and leave a good impression on Madame.
Zi Shuyou was also a little ashamed, and stepped forward to bow (body shēn) and saluted: "I knew that this chili pepper was edible in Sichuan Shu, but I never thought of transplanting it to Yanhu, it seems that no matter how much I read this book, it can't compare to Chi Gongzi's words." ”
Chi Qiu was happy in his heart, he thought that he had seen some scenes, and he would actually make Zi Shuyou a little speechless with this little compliment......
