Chapter 413: Cooking

Coming out of the secret realm, Xu Qingyan went directly back to Zhuangzi at the foot of the mountain.

It was dinner time, and the subordinates on Zhuangzi had already finished work and were about to eat, when they saw her coming, Zhuangtou Wang Yuan hurriedly ordered the kitchen to prepare her again, but was stopped by Xu Qingyan.

She went into the kitchen and took a look and said, "Leave one person for me to help, and let the others out." “

Dugu's predecessor didn't have much time, and she couldn't get the food in the cultivation realm, so she could only cook and chat in person.

Seeing that her face was wrong, Wang Yuan didn't dare to ask more, leaving a cook and sending the others away.

Xu Qingyan looked at the table and found that the only ingredients in the kitchen were beans, eggplant, tomatoes and yellow paws, and there was not even a piece of meat.

After thinking about it, she looked out and said, "Steward Wang, you go to the treasury and get a few sweet potatoes and potatoes." ”

"Hey." She didn't eat, how dare the king steward go to eat by herself, she waited outside the door all the time, and hurriedly responded when she heard the words and went to the warehouse.

This year, a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes were planted on the village, with a full 300 acres of land, and she first used the aura charm water to soak the seeds, and then asked the subordinates to water it from time to time, so the yield doubled compared with last year, and the yield per mu was close to 20,000 catties.

At this time, just after the summer harvest, 300 acres of potatoes and sweet potatoes dug out more than 6 million catties, so that the two granaries originally prepared on the Zhuangzi were not enough, and in a hurry, Xu Guanghua had to let his subordinates temporarily build a few simple granaries next to the pigsty.

Even with such a bumper harvest, the Xu family rarely eats potatoes, not because they don't like it, but because they are reluctant, because these potatoes have to be kept for seed and sold to the people of the Zhou Dynasty.

Last year in the palace, the emperor had already told Xu Qingyan that the potatoes harvested this year could be sold by herself, but the price was reasonable and within the range approved by the imperial court, so in order to let the people realize the vision of being full as soon as possible, she has tasted it twice in total since Xia received it.

When Wang Yuan took the potatoes, Xu Qingyan was not idle, and ordered the cook to light the fire, and she made a scrambled egg with tomatoes with her hands and feet.

This sweet and sour home-cooked dish, which was extremely common in the previous life, has been transformed into an extremely rare dish in this era due to the scarcity of ingredients.

After making scrambled eggs with tomatoes, it happened that Wang Yuan also sent things over, Xu Qingyan asked the cook to peel the potatoes and shred them by the way, and she picked up the sweet potatoes on the side and shaved them.

When the skin is planed, she cuts the sweet potato hob quickly, and then calls the cook to light the fire and prepare to make the sweet potatoes.

Two quarters of an hour later, Xu Qingyan made four dishes, one cold and three hot, namely cold cucumber, hot and sour shredded potatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and shredded sweet potatoes.

Don't look at these inconspicuous home-cooked dishes, but they are all rare dishes in this dynasty, do everything, she told Wang Yuan to find a food box to pack the dishes, and send two bowls of rice to her room together, so she left first.

Leaving the kitchen, Xu Qingyan went straight to the backyard, there were two peach trees planted in the backyard, which was already fruitful at this time, she flew and picked two big and red peaches in her sleeves, and then took a rusty shovel from the courtyard wall and picked it up under the tree.

After a while, the crisp sound of cruising ceramics was heard.

She put down her shovel and carefully brushed the dirt away with her hands, revealing a corner of the sealed red cloth......

This is the beginning of this year, she took the fairy and their own peach blossom wine, and it has been almost three months, and she cleaned up the soil on the bottle mouth and bottle, and she went back to the room with the wine jar.

Nowadays, whether it is the Zhuangzi in Guanqian Mountain or the Zhuangzi in the suburbs, she has a fixed room, although she doesn't like to take care of Zhuangzi and doesn't care about farming, but who told her to like to run around, she has a room for every Zhuangzi.

As soon as she turned the corner, she saw Wang Yuanhou guarding her door, and when she came back with the wine jar, Wang Yuan stepped forward and said, "County Lord, I have already asked people to bring in the food, I don't know what else you have to order?" ”

"No, you can hurry down and eat, it's hard work."

"It's not hard, it's not hard." Wang Yuan waved his hand again and again: "The villain went down first, and you will command if you have something." “

"Okay, by the way, I'll go to sleep directly after eating, don't let people disturb me, the food box on the table, keep it for tomorrow."

"Yes, the villain wrote it down."

"Well, stand down."

When Wang Yuan walked away and saw that there was no one around, Xu Qingyan took the food box in one hand and the wine jar in the other, and flew to Daqingshan behind.

.........

"Senior, the wine and food are here." As soon as she entered the secret realm, Xu Qingyan called loudly.

Hearing this, Dugu Bancheng walked out of a shop on the street and beckoned to her: "Here, come here." “

"Hey." Xu Qingyan happily walked towards him with the food box.

"Put something in." He leaned sideways towards the shop.

"Okay."

The interior of the restaurant is similar to a restaurant, with many tables and chairs in the middle of the lobby, and a special counter for collecting money by the door, but it is empty and not the slightest popularity.

She picked a table by the window with a food box and took out the wine and food on the table, because of the high temperature in summer, although it was delayed for some time, the food was still hot.

Taking out the food in the food box and setting it up, she patted the wine jar and beckoned to Dugu Bancheng by the door: "Senior, come and taste the peach blossom wine I brewed, I have buried this wine under the tree for almost three months." “

"You made it yourself?" Dugu Bancheng was a little surprised.

"Well, if you didn't want to drink it, I wouldn't be willing to take it out." She laughed and quipped.

"Then I have to try it, I didn't expect you to have this skill as a girl."

Seeing him coming, Xu Qingyan hurriedly poured him a glass of peach blossom wine, the light red liquid was contained in the porcelain white wine glass, and occasionally one or two unmelted peaches floated up, which was very good-looking.

Dugu Bancheng picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "The taste is good, the entrance is long and the aroma is indifferent, although it is not as good as the various spirit wines I drank before, but it also has a different taste." “

If he can say a good word, Xu Qingyan is already very happy.

"It's good if the seniors like it, don't just drink, try the dishes again, there are no good ingredients in this hurry, you will eat some, next time I will bring you a flower chicken."

"Called Flower Chicken?" Dugu Bancheng raised his eyebrows.

"Well, don't look at the name, it doesn't sound very elegant, but the taste is very good, the chicken wrapped in lotus leaves is so tender that it melts in your mouth, accompanied by the faint fragrance of lotus leaves......" Xu Qingyan explained in detail the process of making a flower chicken.

"I'd love to hear you say that." Dugu Bancheng came to be interested.

"No problem, I'll make it for you when you're done eating the table."

Dugu Bancheng smiled and took a chopstick to pluck the sweet potato in his mouth, and the sweet taste suddenly spread between his tongue, but his expression froze.

Xu Qingyan was startled, and asked cautiously: "What's the matter, senior, is it...... Is it hard to eat? ”

Dugu Bancheng shook his head, but his eyes were a little red, "No, I just suddenly remembered an old man." ”

A mortal who died young........ His birth mother!
