Chapter 172: Potatoes
Shen Fu meant to worry that Lin Kite, a girl, would be targeted by bad people in this troubled place, but now that he learned that Lin Kite's father-in-law was also there, and with this man, then he and his father would not have to worry about Lin Kite's danger, but Zhao Yun didn't think so after listening to Shen Fu's words.
All men of marriageable age, as long as they are close to Lin Kite, Zhao Yun can't help but regard the other party as an enemy.
"In Xia Shen Fu, I met Miss Lin two days ago." Shen Fu introduces himself.
Lin Yuan nodded: "Yes, he is the Shen Gongzi of the Shen family I mentioned to you last time." ”
Zhao Yun looked at Shen Fu again, and this time he finally felt less hostile, firstly because Lin Yuan did not deny that he was her father-in-law, and secondly, because he learned from Lin Yuan that this Shen Gongzi had a good character and that the family was a good person.
"Oh, Shen Gongzi, you came just in time, look at the things in my hand, have you seen it?" Lin Kite is now desperate to know if potatoes are only available in this landslide, or if this kind of potatoes can be seen everywhere in Zheng'an City.
Shen Fu took a lump of soil and shook his head: "I haven't seen it, what is this?" ”
Lin Kite was just about to be lost, when a passing villager pointed to the potatoes and said, "Isn't this thing just a lump of dirt?" It's everywhere in the mountains, and you can't eat it, because if you eat it, you'll have diarrhea. ”
"You will have diarrhea when you eat it raw, but it will be delicious when cooked." Lin Kite misses dishes made with potatoes very much, such as sour and hot shredded potatoes, and she really drools when she thinks about it.
The villagers were suspicious: "Can you eat it when it's cooked?" ”
The villagers really didn't know that this gnocchi could be eaten after it was cooked, because after seeing someone who had diarrhea and abdominal pain after eating it, everyone thought that this gnocchi was poisonous, so naturally they would not still think about eating it.
Zhao Yun was also a little unconvinced: "Kite, you didn't admit your mistake, right?" ”
"There's no way I'm wrong!" Lin Kite doesn't know anything, and he can't help but know potatoes, right? What a common dish.
Seeing that Lin Yuan's tone was so firm, Shen Fu and Zhao Yun no longer doubted it.
But even if they could eat it, Shen Fu and Zhao Yun both felt that this was just one more thing to eat, and it was not of much use in the face of famine.
Lin Yuan didn't have time to deal with the two of them at this time, she just wanted to hurry back to the inn with the potatoes now, and then make a large plate of sour and hot shredded potatoes to have a good taste of modern food.
"Let's go back first, I can't wait to eat the hot and sour shredded potatoes."
Lin Yuan said as he walked in the direction where the horses had been put before, and his mouth was still excitedly broken: "There are also stewed beef brisket with potatoes, large plate of chicken, French fries, ......."
Zhao Yun listened closely to her, and felt that just listening to her happy thoughts like this could also make people feel happy.
After waiting for the horse, they were already on their way back to the city, and Lin Yuan suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to invite Shen Fu to eat shredded potatoes, and he didn't even say goodbye, which was really rude.
However, when she has made all the dishes, it will be the same if she sends someone to send them to the Shen Mansion.
And after thinking about it, it was a good thing to forget about inviting Shen Fu to eat shredded potatoes together, after all, she hadn't eaten this ancient potato yet, and she didn't know if it would be any different from the modern one, if something went wrong with the taste, she wouldn't be able to explain it to Shen Fu.
Lin Kite came back with a potato in her hand, and even though the potato made her hands dirty, she didn't care.
And the accompanying guards were already very sensible, and they picked up a bunch of potatoes and followed closely.
After returning to the inn, Lin Yuan walked up the stairs quickly: "You guys now take the potatoes to the kitchen to wash, oh, if your clothes are wet, you can also change your clothes first, don't catch a cold." ”
When he finished speaking, he had already arrived at the door of the room on the second floor, and Lin Yuan went into the house to wash his hands, change out of his dirty and wet clothes, and then rushed downstairs.
Lin Kite couldn't tell if the guards had changed their clothes, because their clothes were the same every day, and Lin Kite was more concerned that the potatoes had been washed and turned into oval yellow "eggs".
"You help me light the fire, I want to peel the potatoes first, and then shred them......" Lin Yuan began to think again, while the guards helped while reporting the situation in the kitchen to Zhao Yun inside and out.
After some tossing and turning, Lin Yuan finally made the shredded potatoes and made a few other simple dishes, and hurriedly came out to prepare for the meal.
"How?" As soon as Lin Yuan put the shredded potatoes on the table, he began to ask with great interest.
Zhao Yun looked at the appearance and smelled the smell, nodded and commented seriously: "It smells good." ”
After speaking, he was about to move his chopsticks, but was stopped by Lin Kite: "Wait, I'll eat first, what are you anxious about?" ”
Knowing that Lin Yuan was afraid that the potatoes were poisonous and wanted to test the poison himself, Zhao Yun's face suddenly darkened, and he directly pushed away the plate of shredded potatoes and gave the guard next to him a look, and the other party immediately understood, picked up the chopsticks, and took a clip to eat first.
In fact, when frying shredded potatoes, the guard drooled, the smell was really sour and spicy, and it made people very greedy, I didn't expect him to be the first to eat it, even if it was really poisonous, he was willing.
"No problem." After taking a bite, the guard licked his lips, "This lump is so delicious." ”
Lin Kite corrected: "What a lump, its name is potato." ”
The guard immediately changed his words: "The potatoes are so delicious." ”
"It must be delicious, I liked to eat shredded potatoes the most when I was a child, and it would have been better to put dried chili peppers, but unfortunately there are no ones here, so I can only put some chili noodles." Lin Yuan was a little regretful, "When we go back, we must bring more potatoes back, potatoes can be stored for a long time." ”
The poison was also tried, Lin Yuan didn't wait any longer, he couldn't wait to put a big clip into his bowl, and began to eat it regardless of his image.
Zhao Yun finally put down the chopsticks, and after he took a bite, he understood why Lin Kite saw the lumps...... No, I'm so excited when I see potatoes. Because the shredded potatoes are so delicious, sour and spicy.
After eating the sour and spicy shredded potatoes, Zhao Yun actually began to look forward to the potato stewed brisket and French fries that Lin Yuan said, but unfortunately there were not many potatoes brought back today.
While eating, Lin Yuan said: "Potatoes are such a thing, a seedling can grow very big potatoes, you can cook and eat directly, more than rice, so in addition to letting the people eat locusts, we can also let everyone dig potatoes to eat, with these two things, starch and protein are also available, so it will not starve to death, if you really can't eat locusts, then only eat potatoes, it's enough." ”
When the two of them were almost finished eating, General Guo and another guard who were left in the village came back, and General Guo, a foodie, smelled the sour and spicy smell before he entered the door, which made his mouth water, and he even walked much faster.
Because Lin Kite didn't know when they would come back, he didn't make their share of shredded potatoes, after all, shredded potatoes were not delicious if they stayed for a long time.
"General Guo, it's too much of a coincidence that you came back, right? We just finished eating shredded potatoes. Looking at the little shredded potatoes left on the plate, Lin Kite was a little embarrassed.
"It smells so good! Is this a dish made from the lumps of dirt that the girl brought back from the village? General Guo looked at the remaining shredded potatoes on the plate and swallowed. It's not that he's greedy, it's that he's been hungry all morning, and now he sees the food again, and Lin Kite is a good person to get along with, he doesn't treat Lin Kite as an outsider...... As for the emperor, there is Lin Kite anyway, and the emperor listens to Lin Kite.
"Well, it's shredded potatoes, General Guo, you sit down first, and I'll make you another one." By the way, has the son of the Shen family also returned? Lin Yuan asked casually.
General Guo searched for news about the "Shen family's son" in his mind: "It should be back, the villagers in the village have been evacuated, and everyone has dispersed." ”
"Well, then I'll make one more, and you will send one to the Shen family later." Dropping a sentence, Lin Yuan went to the kitchen again, leaving Zhao Yun, who was already blackfaced.
When General Guo and the guards saw Zhao Yun's appearance, they were all frightened and vigilant, and General Guo followed Lin Yuan's back: "Miss Lin, I'll give you a hand." ”
Other guards: "My subordinates will find more potatoes for Miss Lin." ”
"The subordinates continue to inquire about the news."
"My subordinates also went to the kitchen to help."
The fried shredded potatoes were very fast, and it didn't take much time for Lin Yuan to make a large pot of shredded potatoes, divide a part of it and put it into the food box, and let one of the guards help send it to the Shen family, and leave the rest for General Guo and the guards to eat, as for the secret guards...... Lin Kite believed that they had succeeded in stealing in the shadows, and they would have a way to get food.
Shen family.
Shen Fu was telling his father about meeting Lin Yuan and Zhao Yun today, and when he was talking about potatoes, a doorman came to report, saying that Lin Yuan had sent someone and was waiting outside the door at this time.
After the father and son got the news, Shen Fu immediately stood up: "Dad, I'll take a look." ”
"Go ahead." Seeing his son's diligent appearance, Master Shen did not doubt that his son had any other meaning to Lin Kite, because he knew that his son was the same as him, and from the first time he saw Lin Kite, he felt that Lin Kite was very familiar, and people couldn't help but get close.
After a while, Shen Fu hurriedly came in with a food box: "Dad, Miss Lin made that lump into a dish, and asked someone to send it over for us to taste." ”
As he spoke, he put down the food box, opened it, and smelled a sour and spicy fragrance, just smelling the taste, he felt that it was particularly appetizing.
Shen Fu instructed someone to bring the dishes and chopsticks, and without hesitation, he picked them up and took a bite, without worrying about whether it would be poisonous or whether he could eat it.
"Dad, it's delicious!" It's not that Shen Fu is exaggerating, it's that he really hasn't tasted food like this, which makes people want to take a bite after eating it.
After Master Shen ate it, like Shen Fu, he praised again and again: "You still say that this is a lump of soil, I think it is a delicacies of the mountains and seas!" ”
Shen Fu: "Yes, it's Fu'er who said it wrong, this is indeed a good thing, but it's a pity that there are too few, otherwise I can let my mother eat and see." ”
The father and son looked at the dishes that had bottomed out, and tacitly showed a weak expression.
