"Oh~Oh~" The rooster crowed outside the house, the sky was white, and Xie Ao was still muttering in his dream. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Xiao Qian stood next to Xie Ao with a basin of water, "Shiro, get up quickly, get up and wash!" ”

Xie Ao hugged the quilt and squinted his eyes and shouted, "Who is so annoying!" What time is it, and you can't let people sleep? I'm sleeping. ”

"If you sleep in the sun, you're going to burn your butt. The plan of the year lies in the spring, and the plan of the day lies in the morning, so get up quickly! ”

Xie Ao is a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, so Xiaoqian can't shout no matter how she screams.

Xiaoqian really had no choice, so she had to stand by and wait, she felt a little strange in her heart. Usually, Shiro gets up every day to read at dawn, huh? Why did I come back so lazy this time, it was like a different person.

Xie Ao's left eye was closed, and his right eye secretly glanced at Xiao Qian, he thought that Xiao Qian was gone, but he didn't expect her to be here. What a stupid and stupid person to be, such a stubborn person. Xie Ao was embarrassed to lie in bed, so he had to get up and wash.

At this time, there was no toothbrush and toothpaste, so Xie Ao rinsed his mouth with salt water, and came to the study after washing. In fact, since coming to this house, Xie Ao found that there were only 4 people in the family, and he wanted to understand the situation at home clearly.

So, Xie Ao asked Xiaoqian, "Is there only four of us in our family?" What is our family's source of income? ”

"You still have two older sisters who are married, and there are only four of us left in the family. After you disappeared before, the main family was very anxious, and sold half of the Yongye field, and now the main income of the family is the remaining 200 acres of Yongye field and 160 acres of mouth field, and our family also has a manor in Qixing Lake, which was bought when the master family retired that year. ”

Xiao Qian continued, "Over the years, when you have been studying, the main family has invited the best famous teachers to teach you, so the family's savings are not much, and the main family is counting on you to be the top student in high school one day and shine on the lintel." ”

"It seems that although it is a famous family, it is already in the middle of the family. But in the future, I will make this home better and better. ”

Xie Ao had already understood the general situation at home, so he paid attention to the study. I saw that the bookshelves were full of various books: "Poems", "Zhou Li", "Shangshu", "The Legend of the Spring and Autumn Ram", "The Biography of Gu Liang" and so on. There is also an open copy of "Qi Min Elements" on the desk, and there are many dense annotations next to the book. Many of these books are manuscripts, and it seems that Xie Ao was really a complete nerd before.

Xie Ao casually flipped through these books, and didn't find anything strange at first. Later, he found that these books seemed to be imprinted in his mind, and some of them could even be memorized backwards. Why are they so weird, I haven't read these books before, he thought carefully, and he gradually remembered the collision in the space-time tunnel.

Xie Ao suddenly realized that these books were all the books that the original Xie Shilang had read, and now they have all been inherited by me. Although he memorized all these books, some of the contents have not been digested, and he will have to rely on himself to understand and digest them slowly in the future.

Xie Ao was not in a hurry, he came to the front yard from the study, stretched his waist, and began to jog in the small courtyard. It's still important to exercise first, and now the body is too thin. When will my eight-pack abs, my mermaid line, come back? He said to Xiaoqian, "In the future, the habit of reading in the morning has changed, and I get up and run first every day." ”

Xie Ao was running in the yard, and he found that the nurse was chasing a big rooster.

The nurse's full name is not even clear to herself, everyone usually calls her Yang, when his husband died because of the war, at that time, she was still pregnant with a child in her belly, and the main lady saw that she was pitiful and took her in. Xie Ao and Xiaoqian were born on the same day, and Xie Ao's mother died not long after giving birth. The Yang family naturally became Xie Ao's nurse. She never mentioned Yang's husband, and it was difficult for others to mention it. Yang is not only skillful, but also very good at cooking.

Xie Ao asked, "Didn't this rooster keep it crowing?" ”

"The master said to slaughter it and recuperate your body."

"Then when you can kill the chicken, pour two spoonfuls of vinegar on the chicken first!"

"Why is that?"

"The chicken is filled with vinegar before slaughtering, and the stewed chicken is soft and crispy, and it is relatively easy to dehair."

"Shiro, whether what you said is true or false, why have I never heard of it!"

"There is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book. I read all of this from books. ”

In fact, Xie Ao's method is not what it looks like in the book, because his family opened a restaurant in his previous life, so he is very good at eating, and he can be said to be a qualified foodie. Xie Ao believes that people who cherish life must cherish food, and those who cherish food must be very interested in cooking technology and food culture. Therefore, as a qualified foodie, it is not enough that you have eaten a lot of things, you must understand food culture and cooking skills, which is a qualified foodie.

The nurse continued to catch her chickens in the yard, while Xie Ao sneaked into the kitchen.

"The government is people-oriented, and the people are food-oriented." Vegetable baskets and rice bags have always been the lifeblood of the people. Xie Ao wanted to see what was in his vegetable basket and rice bag. He's been wandering around these days, and it's rare to get a close-up look.

The world-famous writer Leo Tolstoy once said: "To see whether a family is happy, just look at whether the kitchen is complete with seasonings." ”

Xie Ao walked into the kitchen and found that the kitchen was neat and clean, and there were many clay pots in the kitchen cabinets, which were full of various seasonings, oils, salts, sauces, and vinegars. However, the color of the salt is not crystal clear enough, and the salt at this time must not be iodized. MSG, oil consumption and light soy sauce are also absent in this era. At this time, most of their seasoning relies on the taste of the food itself for blending and blending.

On the other side of the cupboard are all kinds of vegetables, melons and fruits. Xie Ao looked at the stove, he saw a flat-bottomed clay pot placed on it, and hot water was placed in the clay pot, could this be the pot of the Tang Dynasty? Why is there no iron pot?

In fact, the iron pot appeared very early, and the iron-smelting technology appeared soon after, but it has always appeared as a luxury product. Iron is hard, sharp, and better than stone and bronze. But on the one hand, iron is very valuable, and it is a luxury only in the upper class; On the other hand, as a strategic material, iron tools were strictly controlled, and it is said that the nomads plundered the Han people, and the most popular thing for the Han people was not gold and silver treasures, silk and satin, but iron pots.

Xie Ao now knows why stir-fry was not popular in the Tang Dynasty. First of all, iron pots have not yet become popular. At this time, people's main cooking methods: boiling, cooking, grilling, exposure, smoking, air drying, chilling, fermentation and other means. Therefore, the taste of the cooked food is relatively simple. Secondly, vegetable oils with good thermal conductivity, such as peanut oil and rapeseed oil, were not popularized, so stir-fried vegetables were not popular in the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, the nurse walked in, "Shiro, why did you come to this place, the gentleman is far away from cooking, you forgot what your father taught you." ”

"It's okay, I'll just come in and take a look, Daddy won't know."

"Hurry up and read the book, I'll watch it."

"Nurse, the eggs you bought today are not fresh. There is a trick to picking eggs: the surface is too bright and not fresh, shake it by hand, and the shaking means that the yolk is scattered inside, and you have to pick those eggs with a rough surface and little shaking to be fresh. ”

"Tomorrow I will go to the theory of selling eggs, I told me to ask for fresh eggs, and he gave me these broken eggs, and I was angry."

"Oh~ By the way, if you kill pigs at home, I'll keep those pig offal." Xie Aogang also saw a lot of pig offal in the kitchen waste, so he instructed.

"What do you want all those dirty, fishy pig offal? Steamed, boiled, and eaten, it stinks to death! ”

"Don't ask, you'll find out when you get back."

The reason why pig offal is not popular is first of all the problem of cooking methods, at this time the iron pot is not popular, relying on boiling and steaming, the smell of pig offal is too strong; Secondly, salt at this time was also relatively expensive, almost the same price as grain, so people basically threw away pig offal.

The world-famous food expert French culinary master John Peel once said, "French people eat with their eyes, by sight, good color, clean and hygienic." Japanese people eat vegetables with their noses and smell them, and they can smell good with their sense of smell. Only the Chinese eat with their tongues. The tongue is the most sensitive to taste, indicating that the Chinese are the most able to eat.

Xie Ao is the person who knows how to eat the most, so in Xie Ao's dictionary, "Everything is unbearable, but in the fire, the five flavors are good." ”

Bidding farewell to the kitchen, Xie Ao felt the need to make an iron pot for the family, eating steamed and boiled dishes every day, and birds faded out of his mouth.

Speaking of eating, Xie Ao remembered another very important thing, there was a red pepper in his package, haha~~ God help me. Grow the chili peppers first, then make an iron pot, and then open a charcoal-grilled fish or hot pot restaurant to ensure that it will sell well.

However, in the era of the Tang Dynasty, when business was the last priority, it was obviously not suitable to do business by yourself, and you had to find an excellent partner.

Thousands of high-rise buildings rise from the ground, and planting peppers first is the key. Chili pepper was only introduced to China during the Ming Dynasty, and it was still a new species during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. Chili peppers not only stimulate appetite, promote digestion, remove odors, and make food more delicious, but also resist moisture and wind chill. As the saying goes: spicy mouth, spicy garlic, spicy chili to the heels. When I got the peppers out, I had to make them spicy to their heels.

Xie Ao remembered that he had eaten a kind of chicken neck before, called Jingwu duck neck. There's a flavor that's perverted and spicy, and you can make your lips spicy like sausages, but you're still addicted to it. When the first batch of peppers comes out, try the perverted and spicy ones on the whole.

Xie Ao came to the backyard and turned up a field of flowers. At this time, Xie Yingdeng ran out, looking at Xie Ao carrying a hoe, he was very surprised, "What are you planting?" What did you dig up such a beautiful orchid? What a loser. ”

"Am I planting a cash cow?"

"What are you kidding?"

"Let's make a bet, if real money grows in my land at that time, you have to teach me the Seven Stars Alignment, of course, I won't let the White Sect in vain, and I will treat you to a good meal by the way."

"What if it doesn't grow in the ground? Then I'll enter the Dao Gate, how about being your little Taoist boy? ”

"A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase."

"Eight horses are hard to chase."

In fact, in Xie Yingdeng's heart, no matter whether this child can grow gold and silver treasures or not, he will patiently tutor Xie Ao. One is to repay the kindness owed by my uncle back then; Second, after the same Chen Jun Xie family, they must also support each other; The third and most important thing is that he really likes the kid.

Xie Ao leveled the flower plot, loosened the soil, buried the pepper seeds in the soil half a centimeter to a centimeter deep, and then watered it. In the future, as long as you water at the right time to keep the soil moist, you can wait for the seeds to germinate. Xie Ao planted peppers and planted his own hopes.
