Chapter 17: Did you deliberately perfunctory me before?
Lin Yu'an smiled and walked in front in a good mood, and Qinghe and the cook followed behind with food boxes.
They are now going to the carpentry shop to deliver food.
Looking at the small scale of the carpentry room, Lin Yu was amazed with peace of mind, the most satisfying thing for her after being reborn in ancient times was that the house was big enough! The small courtyard where she lives alone has a main room, three side rooms and a utility room.
Think about the place she used to live in, although it was a three-story building, but the square area was definitely not as big as it is now, and the location was in the countryside, which was not very valuable.
But because of this, the house can be saved.
But there is also a downside here, which is that there is very little seasoning.
The Lin family is considered wealthy, and I heard the cook say that there are more seasonings in people's homes than ordinary people, such as star anise, peppercorns, fennel, etc., but there are no chili peppers.
She can't make mapo tofu if she wants to.
After all, in this winter, she wants to eat a hot, spicy dish to warm up her body and drive away the cold.
When the cook knew she wanted the spicy flavor, she took out a handful of dark red dogwood.
Lin Yu'an directly tried the taste, it was not as stimulating as chili peppers, but it was enough for her living in the south, and she didn't expect that this thing that appeared in ancient poems would bring her such a surprise.
It's just that before she went to stir-fry, she was reminded by Qinghe that she couldn't eat the stimulating taste during the filial piety period.
Lin Yu'an was unwilling.
In the end, he insisted on frying a plate, but he didn't add minced meat, and gave it to Ah Heng and Qinghe to eat after it was fried.
They are the subordinates of the family, and they don't need to be so strict.
And she and Lin Ruochen's were changed to tofu soup, which was the vegetables that Steward He went to procure, which made her saliva run down after not eating green leafy vegetables for a long time.
I heard that it was kept in the cellar, and the leaves were a little wilted, but Lin Yu'an didn't care.
The chili pepper seems to be a foreign product, so I guess it's a little difficult, but you should be able to make your own soy sauce or something.
Lin Yu'an prayed in her heart that she could dream of the method of making soy sauce tonight, she had watched the relevant video, but she didn't write down the specific steps, after all, who would make soy sauce by themselves in modern times.
"Brother, it's time for lunch!"
After entering the house, I saw Lin Ruochen and Ah Heng, who were polishing various parts of the wheelchair with sandpaper, which seemed to have been done.
"Okay."
Lin Ruochen took the wet cloth towel handed by Ah Heng to wipe his hands clean, and was carried to the position.
"That's what you got all morning?"
Seeing the angular thing in the soup bowl, which looked like white jade against the green cabbage, Lin Ruochen revealed the curiosity of a young man.
"Well, it's called tofu."
Lin Yu'an explained a little, and first filled a bowl of soup and handed it over, but Lin Ruochen pushed the bowl in front of her, and then picked up the bowl of soup himself, "An An eat quickly, otherwise it will be cold, my brother will come by himself." ”
This scene reminded Lin Yu'an of the past, it was really the same kind of person, she smiled, and then picked up the bowl and responded, "Okay!" ”
It wasn't long before I started eating that I heard a familiar voice.
"Why did you come here to eat? Make it easy for me to find. "It turned out that it was Mu Chen who ran in without going through the communication.
Lin Ruochen glanced at him angrily.
"Why are you here again?"
"Hehe, someone wants to buy Zhuangzi nearby, so I'll accompany you to take a look, what are you eating? Wow, does it taste so good? Originally, he just noticed the tofu soup on Lin Yu'an's table, but a special aroma immediately drew his attention.
Qinghe said generously: "This is mapo tofu." ”
"Mapo tofu, what kind of new food is this? Hurry up and give me a try. Mu Chen was not polite at all, he directly picked up the plate with fried bean cakes next to him, quickly divided a piece for Ah Heng and Qing He, and scooped two large spoonfuls of mapo tofu and poured it on the remaining fried bean cakes.
Qing He's face turned black in an instant.
This one is a distinguished guest and cannot be angry.
But it's still so angry!
On the other side, after Lin Yu'an was surprised, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile, he didn't expect that this King Mu, whose name in the later part of the book can scare children to stop crying, actually has such a scoundrel side.
Under Qing He's angry glare, which was not well concealed, Mu Chen leisurely dragged a chair and sat down at Lin Yu'an's table.
Lin Ruochen put aside the bowl of tofu soup before he could do it, "This is specially made for me by An An, it is used to replenish my body!" ”
Mu Chen could only awkwardly retract his half-stretched hand.
"Uh...... Eat, hey, hey, eat! ”
He wiped his hands, directly picked up a piece of fried bean cake and dipped some mapo tofu into his mouth, then his eyes widened, and he quickly picked up the edge of the plate and swept some tofu into his mouth with the cake.
"What is mapo tofu? It's soft and tastes good! It can't be done by a man named Mapo, right? But your cook's face is not pockmarked. After swallowing everything in his mouth, he stared at Lin Ruochen's brothers and sisters with blazing eyes.
“……”
Lin Yu'an thought for a moment that Mu Chen had also come through, otherwise how could he guess the origin of this mapo tofu almost the same, but if he thought about it carefully, it was not right, if he was wearing it, how could he not know about tofu.
Is it a temptation?
Lin Yu'an looked at Mu Chen carefully and found that his eyes were very clear and there was nothing abnormal.
Lin Ruochen noticed his sister's appearance, although he had doubts in his heart, but now was not the time to ask, he said directly: "There are so many questions about eating?" If you don't eat, go back quickly. ”
"Hehe, I'm just curious."
Mu Chen didn't continue to ask, and happily ate fried bean cakes and tofu.
In the end, Mu Chen still drank the tofu soup, originally Lin Yu'an deliberately made a little more, thinking about giving it to Ah Heng and Qinghe, but he didn't think it was cheaper for him.
After Lin Yu'an left, Mu Chen lay on the side without any image and patted his stomach with his hand, and said with a look of enjoyment: "Ah Ruo, I found that after An An came back, the grade of your family's food has been improved, to be honest, did you deliberately perfunctory me before?" ”
"Hmph, you're picky."
Lin Ruochen handed the polished wooden block to Ah Heng and asked him to reassemble the wheelchair.
Looking at the assembled wheelchair, Mu Chen used a carp to stiffen up, then stood up directly, ran over here to touch it, and rubbed it there.
"Ah Ruo, how do you use this?"
Lin Ruochen asked Ah Heng to carry himself to the wheelchair, and then demonstrated that he had pushed the wheels and walked around.
Mu Chen's eyes lit up again.
"Ah Ruo, I want to ......"
It's just that before he finished speaking, Steward He hurriedly ran in, with a trace of anxiety on his face.
"Young Master!" But after seeing Mu Chen, he was stunned again, "Little boy Mu, why are you here?" ”
Lin Ruochen looked at Mu Chen angrily, "You came in over the wall again?" ”
