Chapter Twenty-Three: What's Wrong?
"Xu Yiyi, don't pick orchids!" Silver Mountain ran after a fat 3-year-old boy, "Eh! Don't tread water, don't touch that scythe, be careful with your paddling! ”
Erer fell asleep peacefully in the arms of the teacher, she gently put the child on the bed and covered it with a thin cloth sheet.
I went to the backyard, fetched a bucket of water, and went to water the orchid, which was very useful.
She planned to go to the town in a few days, sell all these orchids, and then take out the previous five taels of silver, and hire some workers to repair the roof.
The roof of the house is the most leaky, the windows are the most broken, and the old man's house also has a small hole, and he sleeps in a damp place for a long time, which will worsen the condition of his legs.
After taking care of the orchid, the teacher saw that Xu Zhuzi was already asleep outside, and after looking around, she couldn't move the old man alone, so she had to go into the house and take a broken futon to cover him.
Gensheng and they were coming back soon, she looked at the dishes at home, that is, some sweet potatoes and potatoes that she was tired of, and just when she was in trouble, a child's voice came from outside the house, "Sister of the Gensheng family, are you there?" ”
As soon as the teacher went out, he saw a little boy who was no more than 7 years old holding two white lotus roots in his hands, his legs and stomach were covered with mud, and his eyes were clear and clean.
"Sister, this is what Brother Gensheng asked me to send to you."
The master took the white lotus, touched the child's head, suddenly seemed to remember something, hurriedly entered the kitchen, and after ping pong, he came out with a small strip of meat.
He smiled and handed it to the child, "Sister, my name is Gou Yu'er, and my home is on the edge of the small pond, if you want to eat lotus root again, come to me,"
The little boy seemed to know that she was a mute, and happily took the meat, defended his house, and ran to the field with joy.
Now it's okay, you can change the trick for them and make a lotus root box to eat.
The white lotus root washes off the silt under clean water, and then uses a kitchen knife to cut the lotus root into small boxes, puts it aside, and takes a bird's egg that Yinshan touched from the bird's nest instead of the egg, and leaves it yellow.
Pour the egg whites into the minced meat, add some wild leeks and wild onions, stir, and then use chopsticks to put the meat into the lotus root box.
Using the previous egg yolk and white flour to blend, put the lotus root box into the egg yolk water liquid, use chopsticks to fry one by one in the oil pan until golden brown, remove and put it on a plate.
Then simply fry a potato slice with wild shallots, cut the tiger meat into large slices, put it in a cage drawer and steam it, and make a simple sauce with salt, cane sugar, wild pepper and wild garlic in a bowl.
"It's so fragrant, daughter-in-law, what delicious food did you make?"
Gensheng washed his hands before Shufen, went into the house to help the master carry the dishes out, and saw so many beautiful dishes that he had never seen before, "Daughter-in-law, why do you know this?" ”
The teacher gestured, "Foolish, you go and try whether it tastes good." ”
Nesheng smiled and nodded.
As soon as this dish was served, the family came back piecemeal, only Xu Yiyi and Yinshan, two uncles and nephews who usually regard food as the truth, have not returned.
"Why hasn't Yinshan come back with one by one?" Liu Xiu asked with some concern.
"I must have gone to pick mountain fruits again, and I am reluctant to come back," Gensheng put a lotus root box into his mouth, and said vaguely, the crispness of the gravy mixed with the white lotus root melted in his mouth.
"The third brother is not blessed every time, today's food is so delicious, he is not here." Shufen stuffed tiger meat in a big gulp, and was very satisfied with the sauce made by her sister-in-law.
"Dumb, the food has been done very well these days, you can cook more in the future and ensure Jinshan's food," Zhang Dafeng also said rarely, she really couldn't pick out the thorns of this dish.
Jin Shan nodded, and quickly clipped a few lotus root boxes and stored them in the bowl.
Liu Xiu looked at the dishes in front of her, just like that, she used a lot of flower shelves, which was not a good craft, if she knew these flower shelves, she would definitely be better than her.
"Old Xu's family, something happened!"
An anxious voice shouted outside the house, Liu Xiu was worried about the child, and ran out of the house, "What's the matter?" ”
"Your silver mountain is in trouble! killed the big hound of the landlord's house, and the landlord was about to pay for the silver mountain! ”
It was Brother Huang who came to report the news, and he was also a tenant farmer of Ran's landlord's family.
