Chapter 106: Probably, I'm a Genius!
Before dark, Jiang Zhilian rushed to Qixing Village.
She first went to see how her aunt's house was built, because Meng Qing and Qiao Ruiling took care of it, and the masters were more conscientious.
So it's progressing pretty well, and there's no major problem.
remembered that Qiao Dong said that her aunt had a big pregnancy reaction, so she immediately ran to Mu Jiaojiao's room to find her.
"Lianwa, are you here......" Mu Jiaojiao sat on the bed holding a huge doll, her whole body was swollen, her little face was pale, and she looked terminally ill.
"Oh my God! Auntie, you are pregnant, how can you be abused and beaten! Jiang Zhilian walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, holding Mu Jiaojiao's sweaty hand.
"I'm going to be tortured to death by this little rabbit cub, I knew I wouldn't want a child, I just wanted my mother's life!" Mu Jiaojiao wailed, "I can't eat, I can't sleep, and I'm so uncomfortable that I want to die." I don't have any strength in this hand, and I always sweat profusely, I can't even draw, and I'm so bored that I want to cry! I didn't know what it meant to live like a year before, but now I know it. Don't say anything about living like a year, every minute feels super long for me......"
"Have you been to the hospital for a thorough check-up? Did the doctor tell you anything? Jiang Zhilian said and stood up, took a wooden comb from the dresser, and helped Mu Jiaojiao recomb her scattered hair.
"I checked it and said there was no problem. The child is more than two months old and is doing well. ”
Mu Jiaojiao barely pulled out a smile, and spoke weakly, "Maybe it's because of my physique, there are actually a lot of pregnant women like this, it's normal, I heard before that many pregnant women have swollen feet and have to wear shoes two sizes larger." In addition, I may still be a little uncomfortable, and it is time for the change of season, so it will be even more uncomfortable. ”
Jiang Zhilian was so distressed that she didn't know what to say, and no matter how much comfort she had, it seemed that it was of no practical use.
"Do you have anything you'd like to eat? Shall I stew you soup or porridge in the evening? ”
"No, it's easier to vomit when you eat soup and water." Mu Jiaojiao thought about it seriously as if she was thinking about a major event in her life.
After a long time, she tilted her head to look at Jiang Zhilian, pursed her chapped lips, and said, "I want to eat beans." ”
Jiang Zhilian: "Beans? What beans? ”
"All kinds of beans, the kind that are soft and fragrant to chew." Mu Jiaojiao's eyes lit up, and she looked expectant.
"Okay, you sleep for a while, and I'll bring you something delicious!" Jiang Zhilian walked quickly to the door, stopped, and said, "I have to go back to the city to cook it for you, there are not enough ingredients here, and there is no meat." It could take a few hours, so don't be in a hurry. Sleep more, recuperate, and I'll call you when you're back. ”
"Don't bother...... Just do whatever you want......" Before Mu Jiaojiao's words fell, Jiang Zhilian had already disappeared.
Jiang Zhilian drove all the way to the Qingxiang Canteen, and it happened that Lin Xiang was there, so she asked Lin Xiang to borrow the back kitchen.
Since exchanging secret recipes with Lin Xiang, the relationship between the two of them has eased a lot.
Lin Xiang was worried that her secret would be told by Jiang Zhilian, so she had some scruples, and she was a lot more polite when she met Jiang Zhilian.
"What are you going to do? I'll find you the ingredients to ......" Lin Xiang said and took the basic ingredients of green onions, ginger and garlic first, and said casually: "I see that you are in a hurry, I will give you a hand?" ”
"Thank you very much!" Jiang Zhilian couldn't be polite, and said like a machine gun: "I'm going to make bean kernel rice, pine nut kelp, hawthorn stewed pork ribs, fried daylily with fungus, crucian carp tofu, sweet and sour radishes, and boiled peanuts." You can help me get the ingredients...... Take credit first, and I'll settle the account with you when I get back! ”
"I'm not afraid you'll pay the bill." Lin Xiang smiled lightly, "Wait, I have all these ingredients." ”
Jiang Zhilian was a little surprised, sure enough, there are special supply channels that are different, and there are all kinds of difficult ingredients.
Lin Xiang called two people to help find the ingredients, and after a while, the kitchen counter was full of things.
"You're in a hurry, huh? Maternity meals? Lin Xiang peeled the broad beans, washed them, and put them on a plate.
"Meng Qing's aunt is pregnant, and the pregnancy reaction is too great to eat. I thought about trying to make a few different dishes to see if she could get a little better with it. ”
Jiang Zhilian said as she put panning rice, shredded salted pork, and fresh broad beans into the rice cooker.
Finally, sprinkle a little salt, close the lid and let it simmer.
"You can't catch up with the main master, and you plan to start with the people around him?" Lin Xiang blanched the pork ribs, cut the hawthorn, and soon put the hawthorn stewed pork ribs on the gas stove.
"His aunt is not much older than me, and we have a good relationship. Seeing her uncomfortable, I panicked. Whether there is Meng Qing or not, it is the same, and it will not affect my friendship with her. Jiang Zhilian stewed crucian carp tofu on an electric pot.
The crucian carp had been cleaned up before, which saved her a lot of time.
Around nine o'clock in the evening, it was already past meal.
There are not many guests who enter the restaurant to order, and the kitchen is not very busy, otherwise there will not be so many pots for Jiang Zhilian to use.
"Sweet and sour radish and boiled peanuts, there are ready-made." Lin Xiang glanced at the ingredients on the table and asked, "Pine nut kelp, fungus fried daylily, which one do you make?" ”
Jiang Zhilian picked up the kelp in her hand and put it on the board, and cut it into thin strips with a click.
Seeing this, Lin Xiang raised his hand and poured oil into the wok.
When the oil was hot, she tore the fungus that had been soaked in the store into pieces.
When the oil is hot, add the green onion and stir-fry until fragrant, and then add the fungus slices and daylily.
Stir-fry evenly, pour in the fresh soup and add seasonings.
When the ingredients are ripe, thicken them with wet starch and continue to stir-fry to reduce the juice.
Succeed with flying colors!
Jiang Zhilian was making pine nut kelp while looking at Lin Xiang's operation with her spare eyes.
Smooth, skilled, mechanical, even with a hint of numbness.
Although I can't find a problem, I also lack a soul.
Jiang Zhilian believed that when Lin Xiang was cooking, her mind must have been blank.
Knowing the steps of cooking by heart doesn't make the food more delicious.
Lin Qing is right, Lin Xiang is very serious and hardworking, but she doesn't have a sincere love for food, so she can't talk about any talent.
I don't know if the sacrifices made for love are meaningful.
Maybe for Lin Xiang, sacrifice itself is meaningful.
Jiang Zhilian didn't understand it very well, but she also respected Lin Xiang's choice.
After more than an hour, all the meals were ready.
Lin Xiang found a few insulated lunch boxes, carefully packed them, and put them in a mountaineering bag.
"Carry it on your back, so you can take a little bit on the road. This is my brother's professional hiking bag, you should be careful to use it, don't get dirty! Lin Xiang intimately helped Jiang Zhilian carry her backpack.
She endured it, but in the end, she couldn't hold back, and reminded her with words that only Jiang Zhilian could understand, "You must keep it secret for me!" ”
Jiang Zhilian patted her shoulder, "Don't worry, I'm very trustworthy." ”
"That's good, let's go! Take a taxi and these meals have to be eaten while they are hot. I also packed a box of hawthorn cakes, which pregnant women should love. ”
Jiang Zhilian hugged her gratefully, "Thank you!" ”
Lin Xiang pursed her lips and smiled, waved her hand at Jiang Zhilian, and watched her go away.
This night, Mu Jiaojiao finally had a full meal.
"It's weird, I still regurgitated acid water before, it's disgusting. Why do I have an appetite as soon as I eat the food you cook?! ”
"Probably, I'm a genius!" Seeing that Mu Jiaojiao was able to eat, Jiang Zhilian breathed a sigh of relief.
Mu Jiaojiao took two bites of bean kernel rice, scooped a piece of tofu with crucian carp juice with a spoon, and ate it beautifully.
"Did you make all this stuff? You've only been there for a while, and you're going to have to spend a lot of time on the road......"
"Of course I didn't do it alone, I had friends to help." Jiang Zhilian asked on a whim: "Guess which ones I did!" ”
After Mu Jiaojiao tasted all the dishes, she shook her head, "It's all delicious, I can't guess it." This crucian carp tofu must have been made by you, and it feels like your soul is infused with it. ”
Jiang Zhilian smiled and nodded, "I made crucian carp tofu." ”
"Bean kernel rice, pine nut kelp, and this sweet and sour radish are the best." Mu Jiaojiao sighed with emotion: "I feel that I have been saved by this set of maternity meals!" ”
