Chapter 640: All kinds of cold and frost

There is also a kind of green jelly, which is made from the juice of a grass called jelly grass on the mountain.

This kind of cold freeze will be more delicious after being chilled, sweet and smooth.

The freshly made has a strong green grass taste, and some people don't like to eat this green cold jelly.

The white and transparent jelly is made of the lili fruit, which looks like a pear, and the fruit is so hard that it can only be opened with a knife.

Ye Qing used to like to eat this kind of transparent cold jelly, and it felt moderately soft and hard.

But the people of Chongyang Town prefer a kind of good product called four-fruit soup to relieve the heat.

Siguo soup has a long history, it is a very famous special snack in the south of Jianzhou, and has the effect of dispelling heat and cooling down, so it is loved by people in summer.

Every hot summer, or street stalls, or time-honored shops, people always like to order a bowl of four-fruit soup at the right time to eliminate the sweltering heat of the hot summer.

The recipe for four-fruit soup is also very simple, cutting various seasonal fruits into cubes with a knife, washing and rinsing them with spring water, and then drying them for later use.

In addition, the boiled lotus seeds, mung beans, barley or red beans are matched, and of course, the most important thing is a transparent jelly made of stone flowers, which should be scraped into shreds when eating.

Of course, in later generations, there are more than a dozen combinations of four-fruit soup.

Barley, mung beans, red beans, lotus seeds, white fungus, various fruits, such as pineapple, watermelon, etc., and some candied fruit, raisins, fairy grass, taro balls, pudding, balls, ada seeds.

It's just that in the north, I'm afraid that this kind of snack is rarely seen, and even if there is, there is no authenticity here in Jianzhou.

Just like eating Sichuan food here at this time, you still have to eat it locally in Sichuan to be delicious.

It's a pity that this is ancient times, and there are no rich fruits, but fortunately, the ingredients at this time are all natural, and there are no artificial colors, saccharin, etc., which is not harmful to people.

The seller was a plainly and cleanly dressed young woman in a long cotton dress with a few patches.

In order to make things easier, she did not wear a bikin, and wrapped her head in a clean red floral cloth.

The skin on her face was a little dark red from the sun, and she seemed to be a little nervous and cramped, like a novice who had just come out of the stall.

Ye Qing remembered that there was an old woman setting up a stall here, maybe this woman was her granddaughter or granddaughter-in-law, right?

"Hey, the stall owner has changed today, what about the original mute woman and her granddaughter?" Someone looked at the stall owner and asked.

The woman didn't answer, just lowered her head and went about her business.

"Is it a dumb person again, but today's stall looks much cleaner than before, so bring me a bowl of fairy grass jelly!"

"Bring me a bowl of four-fruit soup too."

The stall owner saw that Ye Qing and the three of them had been standing in front of the stall for a while, but they didn't say what to eat.

So she raised her head and looked at Ye Qing, and asked in a low voice: "This young lady, what do you want?" ”

"I thought you were dumb when you could speak." Ye Shuyun said quickly.

"Shu Yun!" Ye Qing turned his head and glared at Ye Shuyun, who quickly covered his mouth and lowered his head.

The woman was stunned and glanced at Ye Qing very quickly, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes, but she quickly lowered her head again.

"Ye Xi, Shu Yun, what do you want to eat yourself and her?"

Ye Qing decided to order a four-fruit soup for himself, and the thunder jelly here is not as good as ice mint water.

"Sister-in-law will bring me a bowl of four-fruit soup first, not red beans."

Ye Qingcrisp said, then turned around and went to find a table close to the bottom of the big tree.

When Ye Qing and the three of them began to eat cold, the woman's eyes looked at Ye Qing again, and the meaning in her eyes was unclear.

Ye Qing also seemed to feel something, and when he raised his head, he suddenly couldn't feel it.

She put down the spoon after eating half of the four-fruit soup, the cold freeze here has not been chilled, and the taste is not so good.

However, Ye Xi and Ye Shuyun ate with relish.

"Sister, why don't you eat it, such a delicious thing."

Ye Xi saw that there was still more than half a bowl in Ye Qing's bowl, stared at her and asked.

"I won't eat this if it's not iced, if you want to eat it, sister, I'll call a bowl for you to eat."

"I can't eat, I'll have dinner when I get back."

Ye Shuyun felt that a bowl of four-fruit soup cost eight yuan, which was six yuan more expensive than the thunder lili jelly she ate, so she couldn't help but say, "Miss, if you don't want to eat it, can you give it to me?" ”

Ye Qing was stunned, covered his bowl and said, "Don't eat what I eat, you have to like it, I'll make it for you tomorrow!" ”

"Oh." Although Ye Shuyun responded, his eyes still didn't leave the bowl, Ye Qing's eyes moved, and he simply ate it in two bites.

After eating, Ye Qing asked Shu Yun to pay, and stopped Ye Xi, who wanted to go shopping alone.

"Xiaoxi, if you want to buy colored paper wrapping things, why don't you wrap them in good-looking silk cloth, and then find Dongyun to embroider a pattern for you, isn't it much better than that paper wrapper?"

"Embroidered silk is so expensive." Ye Xi said.

The corners of Ye Qing's mouth curled, and he said softly: "Then it depends on who you want to send things to." However, if you say so, then go buy it with us, and then go back in the carriage together. ”

When Ye Xi heard Ye Qing say this, he didn't know what to think, so he quickly said, "Then listen to my sister and wrap it in silk." ”

"Do you want to buy anything more?"

"There's nothing to buy, or sister, let's buy some food and go back, I want to eat your food tonight."

"Okay, whatever you want to eat, as long as it's here, we'll buy it."

Ye Xi's eyes suddenly lit up, "Really? I want to eat pot-roasted catfish, stir-fried smoked rabbit meat, eight treasure taro paste and boiled shrimp. ”

"Is that all?"

"Well, sister, will you do these?"

"Uh, it does." Ye Qing smiled and said softly.

It's all some very simple dishes, but although catfish tastes good, there are really few people who eat it in later generations, and the pollution is too heavy.

"Yay! So can I invite a friend to eat with me in a few days......" Ye Xi rubbed his hands and smiled.

"Okay." Ye Qing nodded, and asked with a smile, "Male or female?" ”

"Of course it's a man?"

"Oh." Ye Qing was actually a little disappointed, thinking that Ye Xishen mysteriously came to buy some packaging colored paper, and he wanted to give a gift to a female classmate.

However, when I think that this is an ancient place, men and women don't kiss or anything, I guess I can't just invite girls to eat at home.

"Sister, what else do you eat?"

"What kind of food? I want to think about ......"

Ye Qing wrenched his fingers and began to count.

"It seems that there is nothing that will not be, I guess you can eat it for a year without repeating it......"

"That's a lot!" When Ye Shuyun heard Ye Qing say this, his throat couldn't help but roll.
