Seeing Yu Xiaocao nodding lightly, the little fat man danced excitedly: "Second sister, you are amazing!" We've got a mouthful! I've long wanted to try the new dishes of Zhen Yu Lou, but I haven't been able to book a table. ”

Xiao Shi couldn't bear to look at him directly, and reminded, "Who is your second sister?" Sun Runze, don't forget that you are two months older than my sister! ”

Sun Runze's cheekiness has already been practiced, he smiled and said, "How iron our relationship is, isn't your second sister my second sister?" I followed your call!! Alright, alright! These are not important, go, go to your house to read the book, we have to work hard, to be worthy of our second sister to cook for us ......"

Yu Xiaocao, who was cutting potatoes in the kitchen, saw three half-grown children dressed as little scholars, hooking their shoulders into the younger brother's room, and the sound of Langlang reading came from time to time. She shook her head lightly and smiled, and the potatoes in her hand were cut into thin shreds, and then soaked in clean water.

She added a piece of firewood to the stove, put some oil in the pot, stir-fried the green onions, ginger, minced garlic and chili peppers until fragrant, and added the soaked shredded potatoes and stir-fried them constantly. Then add aged vinegar to cook the fragrance, and add some salt. When the pot is finally cooked, put in the monosodium glutamate produced by the Zhoujia seasoning workshop. The fried shredded potatoes are bright in color, sour and spicy, and delicious, making the mouth feel relished, and the sour and hot are easy to eat. The little fat man killed half of the plate alone. Yu Xiaocao didn't eat a single chopstick, and the three little guys were contracted.

Another dish is made with wild boar pork belly, as well as her own raw bean sprouts, stewed with vermicelli to make a home-cooked dish. The pork is stewed soft and rotten, melts in the mouth, and the vermicelli absorbs the fat of the pork belly, which tastes firm and delicious, plus the umami of bean sprouts. This stewed vermicelli with pork and bean sprouts has won unanimous praise from the three small ones.

Liu Jinye is very fond of spinach egg drop soup, although his family conditions are not bad, but he hasn't seen green leafy vegetables much in winter, this green, green, yellow and yellow spinach egg drop soup makes people very appetizing at first sight.

A few dishes that are extremely simple on weekdays are extremely rare in disaster years. Liu Jinye and the little fat Sun Runze, who had a bulging stomach after eating, couldn't bend down. When the two little ones saw that Xiaoshi had eaten, they naturally cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks to brush, and followed them into the kitchen to help brush the dishes and dishes. Yu Fu's second sister has worked hard enough to cook, they share some housework, otherwise how can they have the face to come over to eat again in the future?

When washing the dishes, Liu Jinye quietly said to the heartless little fat man: "These dishes made by Second Sister Yu Fu, if you eat them outside, you can't take them without ten taels of silver." Especially the potatoes and spinach, which are even more rare. The snow hasn't melted yet, and I don't know where Yu Fu's family got the green leafy vegetables. You see that everything is expensive now, let's give ten taels of silver a month, it seems to be a little less......"

The little fat man said indifferently: "Ten taels of silver is not enough, then give twenty taels!" Let's just say that we need to supplement nutrition before the exam, and the family will not support it. I know your family, and I won't be able to take out twenty taels of silver, right? ”

Liu Jinye nodded, and decided to ask his family to bring some silver over tomorrow. If you eat like this, even if it is twenty taels of silver, the Yu family will still suffer a little.

The next day, Liu Jinye and Sun Runze asked people to send letters back to their respective homes, saying that in order not to affect next month's exam, they could eat something good and partner up at their classmates' homes. Let the family bring more silver.

After the two families saw the letter, their hearts beat a little drum: what kind of food standard is it, ten taels of silver a month is not enough? My son is too young and innocent to be deceived, right?

The silk business in the first month of the year was average, and Liu Jinye's father decisively packed his luggage, brought some snacks that his son liked, and came to Tanggu Town with his burden. Sun Runze's father also asked the prefect for a few days off to inspect the family of his son's partner.

The two have known each other for a long time because their son is studying together. When they met on the road, they walked together. I set off early in the morning, hurried slowly, and finally arrived at Tanggu Town in the evening. When they came to the gate of Rongxuan Academy, the students had just finished school. The two fathers waited in front of the door for a while, and soon saw their son and a fair-looking and beautiful little scholar come out shoulder to shoulder.

"Ozawa!" Sun Runze's father was the first to shout. When the little fat man heard this, he looked up and saw his father, and ran over happily.

Liu Jinye also saw his father, who was very steady on weekdays, and also quickened his pace and asked, "Dad, why did you come here in person?" Isn't the store busy? ”

Liu Jingui glanced at his son, and saw that his face was ruddy, his complexion was good, and he seemed to be a little fatter, so he put his mind at ease: "At the beginning, you wrote a letter saying that you were eating pickles every day in the academy, and your mother was very worried. I received a message a few days ago that you were having dinner with someone, so why don't you let me see how your food is? As soon as I saw you today, I was relieved. ”

"Uncle Liu, we eat well every day!! It was too late in the morning, so Yu Yu brought us food, and there was meat and vegetables at noon, and it was the most sumptuous in the evening. Yu Fu's second sister has good craftsmanship, and she doesn't bring the same dishes every day! The little fat grandson Runze was tired of his father for a while, and when he heard Liu Jingui's words, he was busy showing off.

Sun Runze's father, Sun Jiaqi, glanced at Liu Jingui, and clearly saw the words "don't believe" in the other party's eyes. If you want to say that in previous years, his son would definitely believe what he said. But in the current year, not to mention that the dishes are not the same every day, it is good to have vegetables to eat!

Sun Runze also obviously saw the disbelief in his father's eyes, and he said indignantly: "Dad, you don't believe your son's words? If you don't believe it, come with us to Yu Fu's house and see if what I said is true or false. ”

Sun Jiaqi patted his son's head, and he didn't know who was following his temper. He looked at Yu Fu, who was standing with a smile, and asked with a smile, "Xiao Ze, this is what you said about Yu Fu, right?" ”

Yu Jian took a step forward, bowed down very politely and said, "Boy Yu Jian, I have seen Uncle Sun and Uncle Liu. ”

"Excuse me, excuse me! Our Jin Ye has caused you trouble! Liu Jingui smiled kindly, and always had to say a few words of politeness.

Yu Xing said politely: "Don't dare to be, Brother Jin Ye and Brother Runze have helped me a lot on weekdays, we are like brothers, uncle and uncle don't be too polite." It's not early, uncle and uncle haven't had dinner yet, is it okay to treat you to a light meal? ”

"No, you're too polite......"

Sun Jialin just wanted to refuse, but his son interrupted him and spoke: "Dad, don't you believe what I said?" Let's see if the truth will be revealed? The second sister said, make us white chopped chicken to eat tonight. Dad, do you know what a white chopping chicken is? Have you ever eaten it? Isn't it delicious? ”

White chopped chicken originated in the Qing Dynasty and is an authentic southern dish, and it is strange that Sun Jialin has eaten it! However, chickens at this time are not cheap, and at the beginning of the disaster year, in order to save food, many chicken families dispose of chickens. After winter, there are almost no chickens sold in the vegetable market, and occasionally one or two are sold, and they are so expensive that they are frightening to death.

He glanced at Yu Yu, who was white and pure, and was surprised in his heart. Didn't the son say that this Yu Yu was born in a peasant family? Maybe he raised it himself? It's not right, as far as he knows, the villagers around Fucheng can't eat enough, where will they get the food to feed the chickens in winter?

Liu Jingui also had the same doubts, and followed his son to the courtyard of the Yu family, which was 500 meters away from the academy.

"Second sister, we're back!" As soon as Yu Jian entered the door, he habitually said hello to the second sister.

Yu Xiaocao's voice came from the kitchen: "I'm ten minutes late today!" Put your bag down, wash your hands, and you'll be ready to eat! ”

Yu Jian put the schoolbag back in his room, scooped a basin of hot water in the kitchen and brought it out, hesitated for a moment, and reminded: "Second sister, you cook two more dishes, and the father of Sun Runze and Jin Hui is also here." ”

The chicken was simmering in the pot on low heat, Yu Xiaocao washed her hands, followed her younger brother out, and exchanged a few words with the two fathers. Sun Jialin waited for a while, but didn't see the adults come out, so he asked, "You two sisters and brothers at home?" ”

Yu Xiaocao smiled and said, "There are old and young people in the family, and my father and my mother can't get apart." I was afraid that my younger brother would not be able to eat well in the academy, so I volunteered to cook for him. The two of you will sit down for a while, and the meal will be good for a while. stones, make a cup of tea for your uncle and uncle. ”

There are two more adults, and the meals prepared are not enough. Fortunately, the dishes are readily available at home. She picked a few lettuces from the Westinghouse, went to the cellar to get two potatoes, and cut some pork. Prepare to make "oyster sauce lettuce" and "dry pot potato chips". Coupled with "white chopped chicken" and "scrambled eggs with leeks", everyone should eat them.

When these were just served, Liu Jingui and Sun Jialin were stunned. What is the origin of this Yu family, can you get fresh leeks and lettuce at this time, and what is this plate? They were so well-informed that they couldn't recognize what the dish was stir-fried with the pork slices.

Sun Runze proudly showed off to his father: "Dad, you haven't eaten this dish, have you?" The ingredients in this are potatoes, and the seeds brought back from the West by King Yangjun last year may not be eaten by the princes and nobles in Beijing!! ”

"Potatoes?" Sun Jialin, as the right and left hand of the prefect, naturally knows potatoes. However, I heard that the thousands of catties of potatoes planted by the king of Yangjun were very important to the imperial court, and they were ready to keep all of them as seeds, but only the emperor asked the imperial kitchen to try to make some to entertain those meritorious ministers. The Yu family is just a farmer in Tanggu Town, how can they get precious potatoes? Don't lie to anyone, right?

Yu Xiaocao seemed to have mind reading skills, the expression on her face was faint, and she said: "Uncle Sun is in Fucheng, won't he know that the corn and potatoes brought back to the capital by King Yangjun were transported from Tanggu Town, right?" ”

"You mean......" Sun Jialin's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at her with surprise.
