Chapter 141: Paving the Way
In fact, these wives just smelled the fragrance of the food and were greedy.
Tang Wanwan warmly beckoned them to sit down, and simply moved the table to the courtyard, and laid out seven or eight chairs next to them, and everyone sat down one by one.
Breakfast was served in the same way. Fortunately, today, in addition to making cakes, Mrs. Chen also boiled millet porridge.
Millet porridge needs to be boiled over low heat, and Mrs. Chen knew that her daughter had been working hard recently, so she got up very early, washed the rice, and put it in a pot over low heat to simmer. That fragrance makes people can't help but move their index fingers when they smell it.
I just made fresh pickled bamboo shoots yesterday, and I can eat them in one night, and I also brought out a big pot. The ladies had never seen bamboo shoots at this time, and they were all surprised.
Seeing that there were a lot of people, Tang Wanwan made some fresh vegetables in the small vegetable garden.
After washing, put a little camellia oil, the oil pan is hot, roll in it, and immediately serve the plate to the table.
She also made a scrambled egg and served it.
In addition, there is a large jar of shrimp paste, and there is a spoon next to it, which is used to spread on the cake and eat.
"Ladies, I may not be used to eating our farmer's food, but our dishes are very fresh, they are all grown in our own fields, and the fish and shrimp caught in the river are very fresh." Chen Niangzi served the dishes as she spoke, and everyone had a bowl of porridge in front of them, accompanied by one or two pieces of cake.
Just looking at the eyes and smelling the smell makes me feel fragrant, let alone eat it later.
"Miss Juan, why do you still have greens here, I think you seem to have picked them from the garden, how did you grow them?" Mrs. Feng looked very curious.
Lord Feng, who had delicious food, was also welcome, and sat next to his wife, preparing to start eating. Hearing Madame's question, Lord Feng suddenly spoke. "Well, I know. I've heard that it's a fresh vegetable planting method from Awanlong, which is called a greenhouse vegetable. Am I right? "What Master Feng heard was also heard from Gu Yunzhi's mouth.
Tang Wanwan smiled and said, "What Master Feng said is correct. It's greenhouse vegetables. In other words, I can eat this kind of food all year round. For example, there are some fruits that I can grow as long as they don't grow on trees, as long as they have seeds. Now the ladies were curious, and hurriedly asked, "Can you grow watermelon for me if I want to eat it now?" ”
Watermelons are also rare in the Great Xia Kingdom, only people born in Shengjing can eat them, they are all shipped from neighboring countries or overseas, not to mention the price is too high to be preserved. Therefore, those rich and noble families, chicken, fish, meat, mountains and seafood, a lot of delicacies can be eaten. Only these fresh vegetables and fruits, which are hard to find.
"What's so difficult about this, as long as Madame can get watermelon seedlings, I will be able to give you big and sweet watermelons in less than two months."
"Ah, really? What about grapes, can they be grown? ”
"Yes, too." Tang Wanwan nodded.
"Wow that's amazing, really fake?"
"Why don't we try?" A few wives were muttering below,
"Then Miss Tang, can you grow lotus roots?"
Lotus root is also a rare thing in the Great Xia Kingdom, and many people have not even seen it, let alone how to put it into the dish.
"This is not difficult, as long as I am given a few pieces of lotus root, I am confident that I can return you a pool of lotus root." Tang Wanwan gestured with his hand, about three or four sections of the kind of lotus root of about 30 centimeters. As long as the knots of the capital section grow there, if you plant them in the pond, you will be able to take root and sprout and grow new lotus roots. And the vitality of the lotus root is particularly tenacious.
Hearing this, the wives of shock all fell off.
"That's an exaggeration, isn't it?"
"How is this possible?"
Everyone didn't believe it, and Tang Wanwan didn't defend it, just smiled faintly, looked at the dishes on the table and said. "Today's breakfast is relatively simple, so don't dislike it. If you feel that the taste is weak, you can add a little of this sauce to the cake. ”
Tang Wanwan immediately picked up a piece of cake, scooped half a spoonful of sauce with a spoon, wiped it evenly left and right, and gently rolled it with his hands. I put it in my mouth and took a small bite. She has a good-looking face and very elegant movements. When you look at it, you think it's delicious.
Others are painting scoops according to gourds.
One by one, they stuffed their mouths, and after a while, their eyes lit up. "Wow, what is this, so delicious."
"It's so delicious."
The next thing is that everyone doesn't speak, they just focus on stuffing things into their mouths. Because a little later, the bowl will be empty.
The one they grabbed was called a hot one, and Lord Feng shouted while eating: "Hey, you guys slow down, hey, leave me a piece." ”
"Hey!" Looking at Lord Feng like this, people really can't help but feel funny.
By the time they had finished their breakfast, there was not much left on the table. When the ladies left, they were embarrassed. However, there are still people who are worried about the shrimp paste. said that if Tang Wanwan had a sale, they wanted to buy a bottle and eat it back.
Tang Wanwan said that this shrimp paste is extremely useful, and it is eaten as a dipping sauce by eating cakes. Seasonings can be made when cooking. When eating noodles, you can also put them in the noodles to adjust the umami. It's tickling to talk about the wives. "Then can we each bring a bottle back today?"
"Not today, when you come to get the oil press, I'll give you one each."
The ladies were happy again.
Tang Wanwan didn't expect them to be so coaxing, and a bottle of sauce sent them away. An oil press of ten taels of silver plus a makeshift breakfast, plus a bottle of sauce.
It's a great deal.
The ladies left first, and Mrs. Feng originally wanted shrimp paste. This Tang Wanwan also wanted to give it to her, but there was not much stock at home, so she could only hold on to Mrs. Feng first.
There was no suitable urn for the shrimp paste she made yesterday, so she put the shrimp paste in the bamboo tube, and then sealed the mouth of the bamboo tube with a rope, so that the preservation time is not long, and the taste will not be bad, because the bamboo tube also has a faint bamboo fragrance, which will add a special taste to the shrimp paste. Seeing that Tang Wanwan gave her a bamboo tube of shrimp paste, Mrs. Feng was very happy and hurriedly thanked her. "Thank you, Miss Ajuan, I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to eat, and I feel uncomfortable if I can't eat it."
Tang Wanwan suddenly understood Lord Feng's actions yesterday, no wonder he insisted on bringing the oil press and oil back, and he could make his wife happy again.
"Thank you, Lord Feng and Mrs. Feng, it stands to reason that you helped me introduce the business, and I have to wrap a red envelope for you. You can taste this shrimp paste first, and then I will invite you to eat it when I have fresh food. ”
When Mrs. Feng heard this, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said: "This dare is good, then don't forget me if you have anything delicious in the future." After saying that, she waved her hand again and said, "Today's matter is nothing, it's just a favor." "Yesterday, Tang Wanwan gave Master Feng such a big bowl of oil, and he didn't ask for money.
Which ladies they brought with them today were simply for them to follow.
"Girl, I'm leaving, we'll talk another day when we're free."
