"I know, why don't you say it, I treat her as a sister." Feng Xian is such a transparent person, she doesn't want to know the reason for this, she worries about it in vain, as long as Song Shaohuai is hers, it is enough.

Song Shaohuai changed into his uniform, walked through the water house, and saw that the tea on the tea house was steaming faintly, and he couldn't resist the temptation of the fragrance of tea, so he stepped forward, took a cup in his left and right hands, and poured it into his mouth in turn.

"It's really good tea!" Song Shaohuai only left this sentence, and left like the wind.

Du Mei curtsied and saw him off, seeing him go, he lowered his head and smiled secretly, this person swallowed the cow and drank, where to taste the taste of tea, the light will fool her with a good tea!

When Fengxian returned to his seat, he ate two pieces of yam cake with tea, and gossiped with Du Mei for a while. She was born in the dust, and she has read countless people. Although King Yan is a dragon and phoenix among people, Du Mei seems to know nothing about the relationship between men and women, and it seems that he is still far from achieving the right fruit. Therefore, with a seven-pronged exquisite heart, she didn't ask there.

Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, Du Mei thought about going to the kitchen to have a look.

Song Shaohuai's other courtyard is a golden house. The population is extremely simple, if he doesn't come back, the master is only Fengxian, so the kitchen is not big, and there are only two cooks and a miscellaneous mother-in-law in it.

Fengxian originally wanted to follow Song Shaohuai's words and not let Du Mei go to the kitchen, after all, if she went to that kind of pickled place, she would inevitably lose her identity. But Du Mei insisted on going in order to cure Fengxian's illness, and she had to accompany her.

Zhang's head went to report the news, telling the kitchen to be smart, and Fengxian led Du Mei to enjoy the scenery all the way, along the corridor, and walked slowly.

It was nearly noon, and the kitchen was already filled with the smell of food. Zhang said hello in advance, and the two cooks in the kitchen were very respectful of Du Mei.

Du Mei carefully looked at the dishes, seafood mushroom soup, pork ribs with plum juice, roasted rabbit breast, braised roast goose in oil, steamed anchovies, water chestnut meat slices, dry fried loofah, fresh mushroom cabbage sum, ham tofu, garlic cucumber, dim sum is crab roe soup dumplings, and the staple food is millet porridge.

"The hostess of your family, the body is weak and cold, this kind of mushroom fungus that grows in the shade should be used less, and there are not many water chestnuts, lotus roots, callus white, and crabs born in the water, in addition, cucumbers, loofahs, and winter melons are all cold things, and there can be no two things at each meal, as for rabbit meat and goose meat, they can be replaced with beef and chicken." Du Mei pointed out the inadequacies in the diet one by one.

"Yes, yes, the slave wrote it down." The two cooks resignedly.

"Meizi, you are really my lucky star!" Feng Xian looked at Du Mei and pointed, and said heartily.

"But what will the master eat for lunch today?" Zhang was dumbfounded, these dishes were pointed out by Du Mei as insufficient, how can this lunch be opened?

"If Sister Fengxian waits, I'll make a few rustic flavors for you to taste." Du Mei said with crooked eyebrows.

"Then I can be regarded as a mouthful, I just ate yam cake, and I am afraid that I will not eat lunch, so it is just right." Fengxian sat on the beauty side of the cloister, and Zhang Fan with her on the side.

Du Mei rolled up her sleeves, and the cook took an apron to help her tie it. In addition to the ingredients eaten by the masters, there are also people who eat in the kitchen. Du Mei picked potatoes, cowpeas, eggplant, green and red peppers, and took the most tender part of the beef, beef tenderloin.

The two cooks helped clean up the meat and vegetables, and Du Mei took some peanuts, red beans, purple rice, and red dates, washed them, added water and boiled them in a clay pot.

Du Mei first slice the tenderloin, use a rolling pin to loosen the meat, then change the knife and cut it into shreds, put shredded ginger, green onions, peppercorns, salt, and egg whites

Marinate up.

While waiting, Du Mei cut the potatoes and eggplants into pieces, cut the cowpeas into sections, stir-fry them in an oil pot, pour a little water and simmer slightly, and when the juice is collected, add salt and start the pot.

When the three fresh dishes are made, the time for marinating the beef tenderloin is almost up, Du Mei shreds the green and red peppers, and cuts the ginger shreds, green onions, garlic slices, and onion slices.

Heat the oil on high heat, stir-fry the chives, ginger and garlic, quickly cut the tenderloin, spray soju to remove the smell, and fry until it is broken. In another pot, stir-fry the green and red peppers and onions, add the tenderloin after changing color, stir-fry quickly, drizzle with soy sauce, add salt and pepper, and remove from the pan instantly.

Du Mei's knife skills are skillful, and the spatula flies, and the two cooks can only stare at each other. Fengxian was attracted by the fragrance, and she didn't think the kitchen was greasy, so she craned her neck to look.

"Lunch is ready, please taste it." Du Mei took off his apron and smiled.

"There are only two dishes, how can you eat this?" Zhang's face was about to collapse. "Double pepper beef tenderloin is a hot food, just enough to neutralize the coldness of seafood mushroom soup, water chestnuts, loofahs, cucumbers are all cold things, it is better to eat less. In summer, it is not suitable to eat acid, and if the plum pork ribs are changed to braised pork ribs, it will be fine.

As for the roasted rabbit breast and roast goose are greasy foods, Sister Fengxian probably won't move chopsticks, that is, they look good, steamed anchovy and ham tofu are edible, and Di San Xian is a seasonal dish with fresh mushrooms and cabbage sum. Du Mei elaborated on the combination of dishes.

"Meizi is right, on weekdays, my lord is not at home, I am the only one to eat, and I have some things that I don't like to eat, so it's better to make some delicious dishes." The summer is hot, and the phoenix has a small appetite, where can she eat so many greasy meats.

According to Du Mei's recipe, the dishes were served on the table, and the sticky and ruddy porridge was also put on the table.

"Meizi, come sit down and eat." Feng Xian looked at the dishes on the table, smelled the tempting fragrance, and was a little hungry.

"No, no, you can eat, I'll eat with the cook in a while." Du Mei hurriedly excused himself.

"What are you talking about, if you are like this again, I will be angry." Fengxian feigned annoyance.

Du Mei couldn't, so he had to sit and eat with him.

"Meizi, if you don't come in the future, what can I do?" Fengxian Jiaojiao, she hadn't had such a good appetite for a long time, so she ate a bowl full of sweet and glutinous porridge.

"Didn't the cooks write down what I did today?" Du Mei laughed.

"Where did you learn that? Could it be that your uncle taught you too? Feng Xian tilted her head and teased.

"This is my own way of eating, I used to sell Ruyi soup in Sheshan Town in the summer, and I often had to buy meat and bones to make soup, and I have three younger sisters at home, so I removed some of the meat from the bones and fried them for them to eat. I see that you only have beef and no pork bones here, I think pigs and cows are about the same, and they should be the tenderloin. Du Mei smiled generously, took a piece of beef tenderloin and handed it to Fengxian.

"Poor thing, you're having such a hard time!" Fengxian patted Du Mei on the shoulder.

"It's going to get better and better in the future." Du Mei no longer needs the sympathy and pity of others, she has hands and feet, and a flexible mind. Good days are waiting for her.

Du Mei accompanied Fengxian to talk and waited for her to take medicine. She wanted to beg her to save Niu Er several times, but she endured it, she was afraid that this friendship was too shallow, and she rejected it, but there was no room for maneuver when she poured.

In the afternoon, when the sun was in the west, the phoenix reluctantly let Du Mei go home.

Everything is as usual at home, Du Zhong has arranged the work in an orderly manner, and the kitchen has been built

All right. After dinner, Du Mei saw that Xu Shi was tired, so she asked her to rest first. The three younger ones helped their younger brother Juniper take a bath, and then took turns to wash, while Du Mei slowly picked up inside and outside the house.

"Plums." In the night, Bajin lowered his voice and called out, and Pang Zi followed behind him.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Du Mei greeted her, and her heart suddenly lifted.

Du Mei opened the courtyard door, let Bajin and Pang Zi in, led them into the kitchen, poured two cups of herbal tea and handed them over.

"Three or four uniformed officials came to our town at noon today, and they entered the Frozen Mountain, and many soldiers surrounded the whole mountain, what the hell is going on? Black loaches won't be beheaded! Ponzi sat down at the table and said with a dejected expression. At the end of her speech, she choked uncontrollably.

"Sister-in-law Pang, don't be afraid, I'm thinking of a way, if something really happens, the yamen will also inform you." Du Mei bit her lip and told her the worst.

"Ahh Pang Zi exclaimed, but she quickly covered her mouth, she was still at Du Mei's house, and she couldn't cry.

"I'll talk to them tomorrow to see if I can visit the prison first." Du Mei thought about it in a few days, but seeing that the situation was stronger than people, she couldn't help it.

"Meizi, I haven't gotten together the money yet." After a few days, Pang Zicheng was terrified, and she was obviously thinner, and her face was full of ashes.

Buying and selling land is not a matter of two dollars for the villagers who live by farming. Some families are poor all their lives, and they can't afford to buy their own one-third of an acre. This time, Pang Zi wants to sell the land he just bought, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky, even if the price is reduced, there are very few people who come to inquire.

"Money, I borrowed some from a friend, it's enough for the time being. Don't worry, I'll do my best for what I promised. Du Mei patted her hand soothingly.

"Meizi, I don't know how to thank you, if it weren't for you, I would be scared to death." Ponzi slowed down a little and cheered up.

"Go back and wait for the letter." Du Mei didn't want Xu to know about these things, so he worried.

"That's good, that's good." Seeing that it was completely dark outside, Bajin knew that he was not suitable for a man to stay for a long time, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left with Pang Zi.

The next day, Du Mei still went to Fengxian's house. When she entered the water house, she saw that the blue and white vats that had been placed in the middle of the room were gone.

"Didn't you say don't be too greedy for cold in summer, I didn't let you get ice today, are you hot?" Fengxian sat at the table, embroidering silk handkerchiefs without a match.

"The front and back windows are open, and the wind on the water passes through, which is quite cool, not worse than ice." Du Mei smiled and walked up to her.

"Hey, it turns out that you have ice for sale in Sheshan Town, but this time the supply was suddenly cut off, and I don't know when it will be there again." Feng Xian sighed and put down the silk handkerchief in her hand.

"I'm afraid there won't be any more." Du Mei continued.

"Where does this begin? Haven't you always been selling well, I heard from Gengsheng that your stall is doing well. Feng Xian asked suspiciously.

"A few days ago, Brother Niu and Brother Long, who were in the ice business, were arrested by the people of the county government and put in prison." Du Mei thought about how to ask for help.

"Is it still illegal to sell ice?" Feng Xian looked suspicious.

"Brother Niu and Brother Long's family are crazy, they asked me to inquire, Sister Fengxian, I know that Song Gongzi is a capable person, can you help me?" Du Mei looked at Fengxian expectantly. 2k reading web
