Chapter 112: The East Window Incident
"Ye'er, I'll compensate for my mistakes! Deduct it from my future salary! Li Xiuhong had tears in her eyes, and she quietly glared at Gu Lier. It's all Gu Lier's fault, if it weren't for the arrival of her and Yinggu, who disturbed her heart, how could she make such a low-level mistake?
Gu Ye frowned slightly, searching for a remedy in his mind. Pregnant! She remembered a four-system method that could make up for the loss of medicinal properties.
At this time, most of the methods of concocting Chuanbei were fried and steamed. When she was flipping through the "Collection of Materia Medica", she seemed to see that there were four methods used to concoct Chuanbei, and she could take this opportunity to try it.
Li Xiuhong saw Gu Ye's brows furrowed, silent, and her heart slowly lifted. I was so stupid that I made such a low-level mistake at this most critical time. It seems that her job can't be saved. I hope that Gu Ye still has some pity for her family in her heart and leaves her mother ......
"Sister Xiuhong...... Sister Xiuhong! Gu Ye's voice woke her up from self-pity, "You go to grandpa's house and bring a jar of soju over!" Also, I cut a handful of leeks that I grew in a wooden box. ”
In the winter, Gu Ye was worried that he would gnaw radish and cabbage all winter, so he asked his grandfather to nail more than a dozen wooden boxes and fill the kang heads in the three rooms. Sprinkle spinach, baby greens, leeks, coriander and other leafy greens with a short growth period. After entering the winter, the dishes on their dinner table are still quite rich.
Li Xiuhong cheered up, nodded, and walked out of the pharmacy. No matter what the final result is, she will do everything that Ye Zi explained first, and try to make up for the mistakes she made just now.
"Ye'er, Xiuhong is quite abnormal today." Ying Gu frowned slightly and said, "She won't think that you will replace her with us." ”
"Huh? Ye'er, you're not going to fire her, are you? Gu Li'er said a little tangled, "In that case, my heart will be uneasy!" ”
"How is that possible! Aunt Li and Sister Xiuhong are quick with their hands and feet, and their hearts are careful, where can I find such a good person to help me when I dismiss them? Gu Ye couldn't laugh or cry. Li Xiuhong has a heavy mind, she hides everything in her heart, and she is not tired of living!
With that, she glanced out the door. Her hearing is excellent, so she naturally knows that Li Xiuhong has not left, and what she just said is to give her a reassurance, so as not to always think crankily and delay things!
Li Xiuhong really breathed a sigh of relief, and walked towards the main hall with a relaxed step. Next, she worked especially hard, not to prove anything, but to be ashamed of her mediocre thoughts.
The improvement of the five senses in this life has doubled Gu Ye's chances of success, whether it is concocting medicinal materials or developing new drugs. Chuanbei of the four systems, although she only followed the steps in the book, the first attempt, it was a success. When concocting, she was afraid that the Chuanbei that had been soaked in water would lose its medicinal properties, so she quietly added half a drop of red lotus dew.
This catty of Chuanbei is a blessing in disguise, and the medicinal properties have reached the top. After getting Jimin Hall, Bai Jingxuan gave a high evaluation after testing it, saying that as long as she really reached the highest level of the Great Pharmacist, she would be no worse than the Baili Great Pharmacist!
Four days later, Gu Xiao and Gu Ming's grandfather and grandson returned from the town. On horseback he carried crude medicine purchased from Jimin Hall. Although there are many medicinal materials in Gu Ye's space, they can't be taken out blatantly, and they still need to be transported from the town from time to time.
I brought two turtles with me. That's right, it's two Chinese soft-shelled turtles. Gu Ye leaned over, revealing his foodie nature, and salivated: "Farewell My Concubine, braised soft-shelled turtle, steamed soft-shelled turtle with ham, stewed soft-shelled turtle with green pepper, soft-shelled turtle soup with cordyceps...... Grandpa, you really love me, you know that I am hungry for soft-shelled turtles......"
Gu Ming couldn't stand it anymore, and pouted: "Sister, wake up!" These two soft-shelled turtles are for medicinal purposes! ”
"Not for me?" Gu Ye's little face fell, and his face was full of disappointment. The small appearance looks quite pitiful.
Gu Xiao couldn't bear to touch the little tugs on his granddaughter's head, and said with relief: "Ye'er wants to eat soft-shelled turtles!" Grandpa will go to Yancheng tomorrow and make one for you to come back! I heard that turtle soup is very nourishing, well! If you have the chance, get a few more for you to eat! ”
Hearing Grandpa say this, Gu Ye was not so depressed. She teased the two live soft-shelled turtles with a stick and asked, "What kind of medicine does Third Uncle Bai want to make?" I only know that soft-shelled turtle stew soup is a great supplement, but I haven't heard that it can also be pharmaceutical. ”
"Wait a minute, I want to think about it, what is the name of the medicine?" Gu Xiao knocked on his head. He belongs to the one who has no talent for medicinal materials, and the various names of medicinal materials will only make him one head and two big.
"Grandpa, it's a turtle blood chaihu!" Gu Ming wanted to cover her face. On the way back, Grandpa didn't know how many times he asked the name of the medicine, but he still didn't remember it.
Gu Xiao nodded heavily: "Yes, yes!" That's the name. Cough! In the future, let the surname Bai write down the name of the medicine! When I saw the herbs, my head was big, and I asked me to pass on the name of the medicine, isn't it embarrassing for me! ”
Gu Ye's eyes instantly lit up again: "Turtle blood chaihu, only turtle blood can be used!" Grandpa, let's eat Farewell My Concubine at noon, right? ”
"Farewell concubine? What's that? Is it tasty? Gu Xiao received the task of killing the soft-shelled turtle, and asked curiously while bleeding into the bowl.
"Farewell Concubine is the homonym of turtle chicken. Farewell to my concubine, it is to burn the soft-shelled turtle with the chicken. Gu Ye pulled Gu Ming and ran to Grandma Li's house in the village, and spent 100 wen to buy a fat little hen. Grandma Li raised several hens and wanted to sell them in the town a year ago.
Unfortunately, Grandma Li's son fell and injured his leg, her daughter-in-law was sick and weak, her grandson was young, and no one at home went to the town to catch the market. The hens just sit at home. After Gu Xiao found out, he went to buy two for his granddaughter to stew soup to drink a year ago. Now, Mancun is estimated to be selling out of her hens.
When they returned, they went to the village chief's house. Yesterday, Li Hao took his younger brothers and sisters into the mountains to dig a lot of winter bamboo shoots. Add a few slices of bamboo shoots and shiitake mushrooms to the chicken broth to enhance the freshness.
Knowing the intention of the brother and sister, Li Hao picked the largest winter bamboo shoots for them, and he was reluctant to ask for money. He also said that he used to eat a lot of pheasants and hares, and a bamboo shoot was nothing, and if he mentioned the money, he should not be a brother.
Indeed, there was a time last autumn when they dug traps and often caught prey. Most of the time, they are grilled and eaten on the spot. Li Hao and his sister Li Xiuer also ate roasted game a few times.
Unfortunately, the weather gradually cooled down, and the wild animals seemed to have gone into the mountains for the winter, and the traps were abandoned. Now that the weather is warmer, do you want to rebuild those pits? How did they know that during that time, it was because someone was ordered to throw prey into it, and there would be a harvest every day.
When he returned home, Gu Ye pulled Aunt Yan and made up a delicious "Farewell My Concubine". The soft-shelled turtle has been slaughtered and washed, blanched in boiling water to remove the blood, and then removed and washed. The hens are also blanched and washed. Put them in a pot together, add fresh soup, wine, salt, green onion and ginger, ham, shiitake mushrooms and winter bamboo shoots, cover and steam. Until the soup was thick and the meat was rotten, Gu Ye quietly added monosodium glutamate to it, put in the green cabbage heart, and steamed it for a while.
A white porcelain basin with two turtles floating on the soup, its four paws open, and the bottom of the basin are pieces of chicken. With a flick of chopsticks, the shell, shell and meat of the turtle are separated, and the taste of eating it is like a chicken and a frog; The chicken nuggets are also as soft as tofu and melt in your mouth. The family was particularly satisfied and appreciative.
Not long after they had dinner, Zhang Orion came with a leopard skin made of nitrate and a silver ingot of five taels, and his son with a sad face. Gu Ye saw that something was wrong, so he hurriedly found an opportunity to slip away.
"Ye'er, don't be busy!" Zhang Orion stopped her and explained to Gu Xiao, who looked confused, "I only found out today that this leopard was hunted by Ye'er. This stinky boy, not to mention carrying the prey home, also received five taels of silver from Ye'er for a skin. Are you angry or not?! ”
The more he talked, the more angry he became, pulling Zhang Lihu's ears and yelling at him: "Zhang Xiaohu, you say, our family is short of you to eat or you to wear, why do you cheat anyone with money?" You don't want to think about it, how good are your feet? You robbed Ye'er's prey and coaxed other people's silver, why is your heart so black? ”
Gu Xiao hurriedly stood up, stopped Zhang Orion, who was about to beat his son, and said, "You dissipate your anger first!" Lihu is not that kind of person. Listen to what he has to say! ”
Gu Ming captured the point of Uncle Zhang's words: "Sister, what's the matter with the leopard?" Didn't you promise us that you wouldn't go up the mountain without permission? Did you disobey and go into the mountains again? ”
Zhang Lihu gave Gu Ye a pitiful look - I'm already too busy to take care of myself, I can't help you, Sister Ye'er, let's each ask for more blessings!
Since the incident in the east window, Gu Ye had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Uncle Zhang, it's not about Brother Lihu." I asked him to hide it for me! Brother, I didn't go up the mountain alone, didn't I have Brother Lihu with me! Besides, I didn't go to the mountains either......"
"You're still quibbling!!" As soon as Gu Ming thought that the fierce leopard might have hurt her sister, her anger kept rushing up, "If you haven't gone to the mountains, how can you meet a beast?" Don't say it, it was the wild beasts of the mountains that entered the village and happened to be met by you. Do you think my grandfather and I will believe it? ”
Gu Ye looked at his grandfather pitifully. She is not afraid of heaven and earth, she is afraid of her brother's chanting, which is more terrible than Tang Seng's mantra. Gu Xiao stretched his face and stiffened his heart and put his face away. This little girl is getting bolder and bolder. At this time, the beasts in the mountains are the most ferocious, and if she doesn't teach her a lesson, she doesn't know how powerful.
But Zhang Orion on the side couldn't bear it. He opened his mouth to speak for the little girl: "I have roughly understood this matter. Xiaohu said that behind the pile of rocks, they found a large valley in which medicinal herbs were found, and when they were digging, the leopard pounced. Stinky boy, I usually let you practice archery, and your heart is like grass. When it comes to the critical moment, the chain is dropped, right? In the end, it was Xiao Yezi who shot the leopard and saved you!! Why are you embarrassed to let a girl save you? ”
