Chapter 17 Culinary

This time, Xu Rujin greeted Ye Chengwei in advance, so this time Ye Chengwei was not waiting anxiously at the door.

When Xu Rujin got home, he saw Ye Chengwei sitting under the locust tree with a book, afraid that he would catch a cold, so Xu Rujin put down the things in his hand and took away the book in his hand.

"Why are you still reading outside at such a late hour? You are not in good health, it is cold at night, what should you do if you are sick again?" said Xu Rujin and pulled up Ye Chengwei.

"Besides, it's dark this day, and you're not afraid of hurting your eyes......"

Ye Chengwei was obediently dragged into the house by Xu Rujin, during this time he had accepted and got used to this little girl's nagging.

When Xu Rujin got home, he went into the kitchen and began to prepare dinner.

She quickly cleaned the meat she bought in the afternoon, picked out the chicken and duck meat, cut the green onion and ginger slices, and added some cooking wine and salt to marinate them.

This marinating time is very long, and it will not be completely marinated until noon tomorrow.

She found a clay pot and stored them, and then began to make the marinade.

The meat she wants to make is actually very simple, similar to the cold duck neck and duck claws that will become popular in the north and south of the river twenty or thirty years later, which can be said to have a unique flavor and is very attractive.

After she married Wei Jingchuan, his illegitimate son liked to eat snacks outside, but Xu Rujin was afraid that the things outside would be unhygienic, so he learned to cook them for him.

The Wei family is powerful and powerful, and when they heard that Xu Rujin was going to learn to cook for the little master, they found chefs from all over the country to teach Xu Rujin how to cook, and the chefs presented their specialty dishes and secret recipes one by one.

In their opinion, the young grandmother of the rich family looked down on the money they earned from the secret recipe, so they didn't hide it at all.

The Wei family's child has a wide range of tastes, and Xu Rujin's cuisine is also comprehensive. So although she lived like a nanny and cook in the Wei family, she also practiced good cooking skills.

Xu Rujin shook his head, and his face showed a little emotion about the impermanence of the world.

She boiled more than 30 kinds of spices such as star anise, cinnamon, cumin, grass fruit, sannai, cloves, peppercorns, sand kernels, cardamom, bay leaves, and grass into a pot of marinade, and when the color came out, it was allowed to cool and used to soak the duck meat that could be marinated tomorrow.

After she finished all this work, the Ye family's kitchen overflowed with an incredible fragrance, and the delicious spices were mixed with a sweet taste that only belonged to meat.

Although the houses assigned to them by the commune are relatively remote, it is not uninhabited in this area.

A window behind the kitchen at home is connected to the outside, Xu Rujin deliberately closed the window when cooking, and filled a basin of incomplete charcoal in the basin to absorb the taste, just like the activated charcoal in the future.

After Xu Rujin finished cooking cold duck meat, he began to stew pig's trotters. Compared to the marinade of cold duck, the five-spice bun of pig's trotters is not so troublesome.

She didn't use much spices when she made chicken soup a few days ago, first, she didn't buy too many spices last time, and second, she thought that the chicken soup in longevity noodles was still original.

It's good that she didn't put so many spices, otherwise Ye Chengwei, who had just fainted from illness, wouldn't have been able to drink it.

This Xu Rujin went to the black market to search around, and all the spices that could be used were probably collected by her, and the pig's trotters must be very fragrant tonight!

Xu Rujin cooked seriously, and didn't notice that the kitchen door was standing outside the door from the time she was washing the meat, and her dark eyes were full of dark and complicated Ye Chengwei.

"It's so fragrant...... Ye Youran's voice sounded behind Ye Chengwei, "What is my sister doing to be delicious again?"

Xu Rujin followed the prestige, and after seeing Ye Chengwei, her eyes were slightly stunned, and before she could think carefully about when Ye Chengwei was standing at the door, Ye Youran said hello to Ye Chengwei and opened the door and came in.

"It's not good yet. Xu Rujin smiled and grabbed Ye Youran's hand to open the lid of the pot, took out a piece of rock candy from the sugar jar next to him, handed it to Ye Youran and said, "Well, I'll give you a piece of rock candy to satisfy your cravings first." ”

In the past, they would never make rock candy as a snack, but since something happened at home, they can't even eat rock candy.

Ye Youran's dark and bright eyes saw the rock candy as if it had been opened, and he rubbed his hands on the placket of his clothes and was about to pick up the rock candy.

Xu Rujin nodded the forehead of this little gluttonous cat with a smile and said, "I haven't washed my hands, it's dirty or not." Open your mouth ......"

Ye Youran scratched his head and smiled, and opened his mouth at Xu Rujin: "Ah......"

Xu Rujin put the rock candy in Ye Youran's mouth, looked at her meow-like satisfied expression, and felt a little funny, "What about Mom and Nanshan?"

The rock sugar melted in his mouth, and the saliva in his mouth continued to secrete, Ye Youran swallowed his saliva before replying: "In the back, I was in a hurry to come back to feed Huang Huang, so I ran back first." "Huang Huang is the name that Ye Youran gave to the hen at home.

The taste of pig's trotters is too fragrant, although Ye Youran has rock candy in his mouth, his eyes still involuntarily glance into the pot.

Xu Rujin looked at her pitiful and cute little appearance, and couldn't help but soften in her heart, and said: "I bought a lot of pig's trotters today, and yours is indispensable, don't worry." ”

Saying that, Xu Rujin scratched Ye Youran's little nose, and the corners of his lips rose unconsciously. First, the food she made made pleased others, which was the greatest affirmation of her, and secondly, the hard work of her previous life was not in vain......

Xu Rujin saw that Hu Xianglan and Ye Nanshan hadn't come back yet, so he asked Ye Youran to greet her, don't be that Hu Xianglan was too tired to work for the first time, and her body couldn't stand it.

After Ye Youran responded, he ran out as soon as he slipped away, leaving only Ye Chengwei and Xu Rujin in the kitchen.

Seeing that Ye Chengwei had not left, Xu Rujin looked at Ye Chengwei's handsome face with a smile, and sighed again that the world was unfair, even if a man has a shrewd mind and strong self-control, he still looks so good.

Compared with him, Xu Rujin felt like a little grass on the side of the road, abandoned at will.

It doesn't matter if you are born and are wrong, after recognizing your ancestors and returning to your ancestors, you still don't love your father and mother. Later, she thought that she was married to a lover, and a good day was coming, but how did she know that her husband Wei Jingchuan didn't like women at all, and there was an illegitimate child outside who came from nowhere.

Later, Wei Jingchuan also brought his seven-year-old illegitimate son back to his home, and Xu Rujin conscientiously raised his son for him. They agreed to divorce the child when he reached adulthood, but he didn't expect that he would die before the child became an adult.

Seeing that Xu Rujin had been staring at him, Ye Chengwei knocked on Xu Rujin's forehead with his fingers, and his tone was not good: "Xu Rujin, have you seen enough?"

Xu Rujin, who was still immersed in the sadness of the past, opened his mouth without thinking: "No." ”

Ye Chengwei didn't expect Xu Rujin to answer like this, and after being slightly stunned, he immediately looked at her gloomily.
