Chapter 209: The Story of Cordyceps Soup

Probably because the weather was a little hot, and there was only the smell of medicine in Ye Wenshan's house, not even tea.

Ou Jianzhong sat for less than a quarter of an hour before getting up to say goodbye, and when he left, he let Ye Wenshan feel better and accompany him to an evening poetry meeting.

When he came out, Ou Jianzhong glanced at Ye Qing's face, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he shook his head secretly in his heart.

It's a pity!

The clear and handsome Ye Wenshan actually has a daughter who looks like a yaksha, no wonder he can only marry a peasant woman.

Ye Qing naturally didn't care about his eyes and thoughts, and after seeing him leave, he put away the needle and thread, took the back basket into the house, and put some small items that Ye Wenshan could use in the house into the back basket.

Then he found an oil-paper umbrella to shade the sun, and helped Ye Wenshan to go towards the small courtyard.

After settling Ye Wenshan, she went to the academy to pick up Ye Xi back.

After returning to the courtyard for the second time, she was busy preparing lunch, the duck soup was already boiled, and she only needed to get a green vegetable and stir-fry the meat with chili.

Nowadays, the most delicious green vegetables in season are the festival vegetables (water spinach), and the local festival vegetables are willow leaf shaped, raised by the water, and are relatively crisp and tender.

The best way to preserve the fresh taste of the festival vegetables and not be too old is to boil a pot of water to blanch the festival vegetables together, and then mix with oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and garlic.

Simple but delicious, stir-fried pork slices with chili peppers are a favorite side dish for locals.

When Ye Qing made it, he also put a little soybean sauce on it, which made this simple plate of fried meat with chili peppers even more flavorful.

Ye Xi, who was helping to light the fire, smelled the smell of this dish, his little nose twitched, his feet were owed, and his small mouth clicked.

Ye Qing was a little proud, he didn't expect that after only two days, this younger brother who doesn't like to talk would become a little gluttonous cat.

"Okay, it's time to eat, you go wash your hands!" Ye Qing smiled.

When Ye Qing brought the cordyceps duck soup to the table, Ye Xi asked curiously, "Sister, why don't you cut this duck?" ”

"Because this is a cordyceps duck soup specially made for my father's body."

"What is Cordyceps?" Ye Xi asked.

Ye Qing smiled and said: "Cordyceps is a kind of medicinal herb, in fact, this soup has a story!" ”

After Ye Xi went to help Ye Wenshan sit down, he immediately asked, "What story, can you tell it?" ”

Ye Qing pondered for a while, there was no Tang Dynasty in the history of this time and space, so she adapted the story and said: "According to legend, more than a thousand years ago, in a country called Tang, their queen was sick and coughed in her old age, and her illness worsened when she felt a little cold.

In order to treat her illness, the imperial doctor used all kinds of expensive medicines, but there was not much effect.

Later, Master Kang, who had followed the queen for many years, made a cordyceps duck soup for the queen, but the queen saw that there was something black in the soup that looked like insects and not insects, and she was puzzled and decided that Master Kong wanted to harm her and wanted to punish her for murder.

But remembering that he had no mistakes in the past, he put him in prison and didn't immediately ask for ......" Speaking of this, Ye Qing stopped and served a bowl of soup to Ye Xi and Ye Wenshan.

Hearing this, even Ye Wenshan raised his head and asked curiously, "Then what happened?" ”

"That's right! What happened? Is there really a woman who is king? Ye Xi also asked anxiously.

Ye Qing raised his eyebrows, sat down and continued: "Of course, there is a country where women are kings in this world, and this is the future...... Master Li and Master Kong in the Imperial Dining Room are friends from the same township and are very sympathetic to Master Kong's plight. ”
