Chapter 178: Cooking
"It's not that I'm looking forward to you," Yuan Ning shook his head and tidied up his clothes for him, "It's that you are a person, and what you do always has a blockbuster effect." I think it's very appropriate.
"Besides, I can't make anything better with my current ability, so you can make do with this first."
Su Heting stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms, "A-Ning......"
Yuan Ning closed his eyes slightly, feeling that this "A-Ning" was extremely lingering and tactful, which made people feel tender.
At this moment, none of them felt cold in the house.
It wasn't until there was a cough outside that the two came back to their senses and reluctantly parted.
It's Aunt Luo who gets up all night.
When Aunt Luo went back to the room to sleep, after a while, the two smiled quietly, extinguished the candles, went back to rest arm in arm, and let go when they arrived in the hall.
Su Heting is a person who has official business to do, although he slept late at night and was a little sleepy, he still got up early.
Yuan Ning was the same, thinking that Su Heting was going to the yamen, so she had already gotten up, and before Aunt Zhang and the others came over, she cooked for Su Heting by herself.
Her cooking skills are not very good, and after thinking about it, she plans to boil two eggs for him and boil a bowl of corn paste.
Su Heting heard the movement and hurriedly said, "It's better for me to come, it's too late." ”
He cut a piece of bacon and asked Yuanning to wash a cabbage, and while Yuanning was washing the vegetables, she washed and cut the bacon, and by the way, even the green onion and ginger were also washed and cut.
Yuan Ning brought the dishes, and he asked Yuan Ning to light the fire and burn the pot.
When Yuan Ning caught fire, the cabbage on his side was also cut.
Heat the oil in the pot, fry the bacon first, then add the green onion and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant, fry the cabbage in, add water and boil.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Su Heting went to wash.
After coming back, the water in the pot was already boiling, and after listening attentively, Bo Zhong and the others began to get up one after another, so they put the dry noodles in and boiled them, and beat a few poached eggs.
When Bo Zhong and the others came out to wash, a pot of stewed noodles was already out of the pot.
Shu Yu sniffed, "It's so fragrant, what did you do today?" ”
When they saw Su Heting, who was wearing an apron, bringing a few bowls of noodles to the table, their eyes widened.
Su Heting smiled slightly, "The snow hasn't stopped yet, it's not easy to walk on the road, Aunt Zhang, I'm afraid they will be late for a while." I was in a hurry to go to the yamen, and I couldn't wait, so I cooked this bit of food, and you don't dislike it. ”
Shu Yu smiled, "I said that my eldest sister doesn't have this skill either!" ”
Yuan Ning came over with two side dishes, put down the plate and flicked it on his head, "It's good to eat some!" ”
Shu Yu stuck out his tongue, sat down in a proper manner, and prepared to eat.
Yuan Ning went to give Aunt Luo a big bowl before returning.
Su Heting had already finished eating and put down his chopsticks, "I'll go first, you eat slowly." ”
Yuan Ning got up again, "I'll send you ......"
"No need," Su Heting pressed her on the shoulder and couldn't get up, "It's still snowing outside, you guys hurry up and eat." I'm not an outsider. ”
Yuan Ning had to sit down.
Su Heting braved the snow and left.
Not long after he left, Aunt Zhang and Sister-in-law Liu came, each carrying a basket on their arms, and the basket was cooked food, so they were afraid that they would not have time to cook, so the two bought some on the road.
As a result, seeing that the five sisters were all full, when they inquired, they learned that it was Su Heting who cooked the food, and both of them stared at each other.
Yuan Ning didn't think it was anything, after all, in her time, cooking almost became a basic skill for men.
No, that's a little brat.
The road is not easy to walk on a snowy day, Bo Zhong and the others have to set off early, and Lin Yue also came to pick up people.
Since the accident in the county, he has taken over the task of picking up and dropping off the children to school, occasionally staying for dinner, and most often going back to his home to accompany his wife.
Ji Xiu likes their mother and son very much, and wants to play with them.
Yuan Ning thought that Aunt Lin was lonely and bored at home alone, and it was a good thing to have such a little bean ding with her, so she agreed, dressed Ji Xiu warmly, and personally sent her over.
Aunt Lin's infection of the wind and cold has long been cured, and she is bored at home alone, and she wants to make a pair of shoes, but the room is a little dark, which is too eye-catching.
I dozed off a little when I was bored and sitting, I heard the sound of knocking on the door, asked a voice, heard Yuan Ning's voice, and hurried over to open the door.
Yuan Ning smiled: "Grandma, Ji Xiu misses you, I sent her here to make trouble for you!" ”
"That's what you said!" Aunt Lin said angrily, "I don't like to hear it!" I wish someone would come and be my companion! ”
Yuan Ning sat down slightly, left some food he had brought over, and then got up and said goodbye.
Zhu Ji has already opened the door to do business, the snow at the door has been swept several times, and a felt mat has been placed at the place where he enters, so that people who come in and out can rub the soles of their shoes on it.
Yuan Ning went in and took a turn, although the weather was not very good, Zhu Ji's business was still good.
In a short time, more than a dozen pieces of cloth were sold.
Shopkeeper Qin took the time to say to her: "Little owner, isn't this the end of the year again?" There are many people who do happy events, there are a lot of white things, and there are many sick and weak people and the elderly who may not be able to survive the New Year, so the business is definitely not bad during this time.
"I'm worried, the supply is not available, you see, should we go to another store to buy some?"
"No," Yuan Ning refused, "Our shop only sells our own cloth, if you say better quality silk brocade or something, you can enter a little more appropriately."
"But the cloth is still forgotten, it's not that I'm boasting, in this market, whose cloth is as good as ours?"
Shopkeeper Qin nodded, "In that case, it is imperative to build a workshop in the coming year." ”
Yuan Ning bowed, "Shopkeeper Qin can now start looking for craftsmen, preparing wood, bricks and tiles, and so on." If I could, I'd like to build a two-story house. It also saves land. ”
Shopkeeper Qin hesitated for a moment, "I'm just afraid that it won't be strong." ”
Not to mention two-story houses, even three- and four-story ones are not uncommon, but the problem is that they all have wooden floors.
There is no danger in the small number of other trading households, and the weight of the household is light.
But they ......
Yuan Ning waved his hand, "I'll solve this problem." Not only should the house be strong, but it should also be warm in winter and ventilated in summer. ”
Shopkeeper Qin couldn't help shaking her head after sending her away, after all, he was a young man who liked to be whimsical.
After Yuan Ning returned, he began to design the house non-stop.
The construction of the factory should not only take into account the requirements of keeping warm in winter and cool in summer, but also have good lighting, and at the same time meet the needs of craftsmen for drinking water and toileting.
There should also be a large room and a large dining room in the factory for the workers to eat and rest temporarily.
Fortunately, she also visited other people's factories back then, so the difficulty of the design was not great, just to place the loom, and made some refinements.
