Chapter 219: Canned Fruit
Chi Yue was distressed, and thought that she would be able to get it when she got to the system, but the sweet and sour oranges and peaches seemed to be a mistake.
"Maomao, is there any other way?" Chi Yue remembers that the system has a function, which can be exchanged, and things of the same value can be converted to each other, if it really doesn't work, Chi Yue is just more, and it can always be exchanged.
"You can exchange three cucumbers for an orange, and two catties of beans for a peach."
It's not expensive, it's not expensive, Chi Yue breathed a sigh of relief, she exchanged ten oranges and ten peaches in one go, since she came, she had to take some more, Chi Yue looked at the cucumber shelf There are still a lot of cucumbers, and the beans grow the most, cut it off today, and maybe it will grow a lot more tomorrow.
"Redemption successful!"
After the system prompted that the exchange was successful, Chi Yue received yellow oranges and pink peaches.
She was a little reluctant to scratch Maomao's head, and the oranges in her pocket fell down one by one, Chi Yue protected the oranges while saying goodbye to Maomao in embarrassment, "Maomao, my sister is gone this time, and I will come to see you in two days!" ”
Suddenly, the surrounding background changed all at once, and there was only pitch black in front of him, and Chi Yue on the bed opened his eyes, looked around, and sure enough, there were more oranges and peaches in his pocket.
It's just that this time Chi Yue made a mistake, but accidentally soiled the clothes of the Queen Mother, she picked cucumbers again, and hugged oranges and peaches, and the clothes in front of her were already stained.
Chi Yue took out a new set from the cabinet, this one fits better, and it is easy to do things, Chi Yue rolled up her sleeves, put oranges and peaches on the table and began to buy canned fruits.
Chi Yue is dedicated to making the best canned fruit, and the right is for Princess Qingyang.
But at this time, Princess Qingyang was accompanying Han Qi and Wen Wei to chat, and the Queen Mother was also very interested, this time Han Qi came to see the Queen Mother, but she came prepared.
"The Queen Mother, today is the Lantern Festival, we should naturally come to visit, these are the new dishes I made, the Queen Mother might as well try it!"
This time, Han Qi was quite confident, and took out the steaming dishes and put them in front of the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother smelled the smell of meat from a distance, and she smiled, "You child, you are the most filial." ”
"Where the Queen Mother said, I can't do very much, and it is my blessing to be able to make the Queen Mother happy."
Han Qi will stammer people when the time comes, and besides, this goblin also brought a helper today, and the two of them talked over there.
"I still think about why my sister has been in the kitchen for the past two days, and I never thought that it was to show filial piety to the Queen Mother."
Wen Wei's words are for the Queen Mother, the dignified Miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion, for the Queen Mother to stay in the kitchen for so many days and endure the smell of oil smoke for so many days, it is not gratifying to hear.
"Actually, it didn't take long, blame me for my poor cooking skills, if you don't practice well, wouldn't it be a joke for the Queen Mother."
Han Qi saw that her subordinates had already placed all the dishes in front of the Queen Mother, she was very concerned about the Queen Mother's actions, but her heart was pounding, and her eyes were also drifting with the Queen Mother's movements.
Looking at the green and green in front of her, the Queen Mother was very puzzled, "This is ...... I obviously smelled the smell of meat, but I didn't see a bit of meat! ”
This can surprise the Queen Mother, since they are all vegetarian, why does it smell like meat......
"The Queen Mother will try it first?"
Han Qi saw the queen mother's reaction, and he was relieved, the stewed cabbage, this is Han Qi's proudest, take the cabbage of the cabbage, this is the softest part, the cabbage is all abandoned, the key is that there is a lot of know-how, that Lian'er's family was originally a poor family, but Lian'er's father is to undertake the country banquet, although he is a country cook, but he does have a rare skill, that is, he can fry the cabbage to bring out the taste of meat!
Han Qi also tasted it himself, sure enough, it has the taste of meat, plus the soup of the stewed cabbage this time, the soup stock that has been dropped for a day and a night is selected, and this soup is particular, the best beef bones are selected, and the fish that has been repeatedly boiled is also added, and it has been cooked for a long time, the bones of the fish are already crispy, and the soup is not used when cooking, only stewed little by little with this broth, until the cabbage absorbs all the soup, and the mouth is fragrant, and the chopsticks can't be put down.
Since you can't be creative and innovative, everyone has eaten cabbage, but such a meaty cabbage can also make people feel fresh, and it takes a lot of effort, Han Qi won in this regard.
The Queen Mother tasted it and smiled, "This is indeed good!" Mouthful! No, I've ever eaten the best cabbage in my life. ”
Han Qi saw that the Queen Mother was happy, and she was also happy, "If the Queen Mother likes to eat, the courtiers can often cook it for the Queen Mother." ”
Next, look at the next dish, it turned out to be a dish of fried tofu, each of which is homely, even if it is a country man, as long as it is a little face-saving, it should not take a dish of fried tofu to entertain guests, which looks slightly shabby.
This tofu is what Han Qi is most worried about, she didn't bother much, just because she had never eaten such a tofu method, and she herself felt fresh.
The tofu on the court, the imperial dining room never used this practice, they like to use tofu as a decoration for the soup, but they rarely use tofu as the main dish, at least Han Qi has never eaten it for so many years.
How noble the palace was, how could it be possible to use the food eaten by ordinary poor people to deal with the Empress Dowager, so Han Qi also boldly speculated, estimating that the Empress Dowager should have never eaten it.
"The Queen Mother tastes hot tofu! It's fried in hot oil, and the skin is still crispy to the touch. ”
The Queen Mother ate half of it, chewed it in her mouth for a while, and didn't speak, which frightened Han Qi again, she thought to herself, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother thinks she is not very respectful, and even uses this dish to fool her......
"I didn't expect tofu to be so delicious! I've never eaten it. ”
The Queen Mother then stuffed the remaining dishes and chopsticks into her mouth, and Han Qi was relieved, it seemed that these two dishes were successful, at least winning the love of the Queen Mother.
The rest of the dishes are useless, and it doesn't matter if the Queen Mother wants to eat more or less.
The Queen Mother ate happily, she said to Han Qi, "I also have a very good cook in this house, she cooks extremely delicious, I have never even seen it, I didn't expect you to have such ingenuity." ”
As soon as Han Qi heard it, she knew that the Queen Mother was talking about Chi Yue, the person she hated the most!
"yes...... I really want to see it another day! ”
Han Qi pretended to be down-to-earth and generous, but Qingyang felt that she was just opportunistic, made these small dishes from home, and sent them to Rongwang's Mansion, purely to make the Queen Mother happy, I don't know if this dish was made by Han Qi herself, and Chi Yue is different, she never likes to do these vain heads, and cooking is also neat, it doesn't take long for a delicacy to come out of the pot, that is really admirable!
Princess Qingyang decided in her heart that Han Qi must not be as good as Chi Yue, and she said, "Why do you want to see it another day?" It just so happens that Miss Miao is also there, Queen Mother, why don't you call Miss Miao in? ”
The Queen Mother naturally agreed, and she immediately instructed her subordinates to do it.
Chi Yue is soaking the peeled fruit in sugar water here, and she is also drowsy, she is really tired this day!
"Girl...... Girl! ”
Just brewed a little sleepiness, Streamer ran in and said to Chi Yue, "The Queen Mother is invited!" ”
Chi Yue rubbed her eyes, remembering that she hadn't gone to ask for peace today, but the Queen Mother also rewarded her with a dress last time, so she should be thankful anyway.
"Okay, you help me tidy up my clothes, let's go over!"
Streamer still wondered, didn't he just go to King Rong's Mansion, this table was full of orange peels and peach peels, as well as the new clothes that had just been changed today, Chi Yue also changed them, and the hair on his head was a little loose.
"How did the girl do this? The clothes given by the Queen Mother, why didn't the girl wear them? ”
Streamer went to the back to help Chi Yue fix her hair, and on the other side asked like a housekeeper.
"The clothes are a little dirty, you have to help me deal with them later, and strive to wear the clothes rewarded by the Queen Mother when I cruise at night, so as not to fall into the mouth."
Fortunately, after the reminder of the streamer, Chi Yue felt that such a festival should still be worn, if some people were caught, Chi Yue would not have good fruit to eat.
"Yes!"
The streamer braided her hair again after a while, but she didn't see when Chi Yue went out to buy these fruits? Besides, at this time, there should be no oranges and peaches.
"Did the girl just go out? Where did you get all this fruit? ”
But everyone will have questions, and in response to this question, Chi Yue thought of a standard answer early.
"I told my relatives a long time ago that their side is the most suitable place to grow these, so I found a letter to ask them to send some quickly, isn't that ...... Coincidentally, I had just returned from His Royal Highness King Rong's study, and I received this. ”
Chi Yue also took out one or two unpeeled oranges and handed them to the streamer to taste fresh, "You can taste them too!" This orange is so sweet......"
At this time, it is really a great luxury to be able to eat oranges, and it is estimated that even the emperor may not be able to eat them as much as he wants, Streamer smiled, "This thing is precious, the girl keeps it for herself." ”
Chi Yue handed half an orange to her mouth, her cheeks bulging like a little hamster, she pointed to her mouth, "Look, I've already eaten, you can eat some too." ”
Streamer thanked, "Thank you, girl!" ”
At first, I thought that the oranges at this time might not be too sweet, but I didn't expect to eat them in my mouth, and I felt sweet and sour, but they were even more delicious than the seasonal ones.
"Okay, girl, let's go first, don't waste time."
Streamer picked up Chi Yue's clothes and was about to go out to wash them, and Chi Yue also happened to go out to meet the Queen Mother.
