Chapter 324: Preparation for the Exam

"Not bad! Thanks to Yang Jun*, he gave our family corn and potato seeds. lived up to the high hopes of the king of Yangjun, and although there were several twists and turns, he finally planted corn and potatoes. King Yangjun was kind and let us keep some potatoes as a reward. Yu Xiaocao is neither humble nor arrogant.

Sun Jialin and Liu Jingui looked at Yu Xiaocao's sister and brother differently. can have a relationship with the emperor's former celebrity Yangjun King, no wonder he was born in a peasant family but made such a generous move.

If Yu Xiaocao knew what these two people were thinking, she would have smiled bitterly: You two think too much. All the ingredients on this table are owned by themselves. Potatoes, leeks and lettuce are homegrown. Wild boar and chicken were stockpiled years ago. When the Zhou family was dealing with the last batch of chickens in late autumn, the Yu family bought a lot, and they were all killed and frozen in the cellar, so that if they saved some food, it would be enough to eat until spring.

Under the enthusiastic attitude of Yu Xiaocao's sister and brother, Liu Jingui and Sun Jialin picked up chopsticks and tasted the dry pot potato chips first. The main ingredient of this dish is potatoes and an appropriate amount of pork belly, and the slightly fried potato slices are charred on the outside and tender on the inside, accompanied by tender and delicious pork belly, which is really a different taste experience for the two fathers.

The little fat man nibbled on a piece of chicken wings, like his father recommended: "Dad, try the white chopped chicken made by the second sister, the original taste, the taste is first-class!" ”

Sun Jialin knew that his son had a very tricky mouth and was not generally picky when eating, so he said yes, it must taste right. He took a look at the so-called white chopped chicken, the meat color is white with belt butter, and there is a faint fragrance of scallion oil, the presentation is also very exquisite, the shape is beautiful, and the green onion segment is trimmed, and the "color" in the three elements of color and fragrance has been reached.

He sandwiched a piece of white chopped chicken, and his son reminded him: "Dip it in sauce to eat, it tastes better!" As his son said, he dipped the spice next to him, put the chicken nuggets in his mouth, and tasted it earnestly. The skin of the chicken is smooth and smooth, light and delicious, which not only maintains the original flavor of the chicken, but also has a unique flavor. Everything is just right, even the chef of Zhen Yu Lou may not have this cooking skills.

Four dishes, leeks are fresh and tender, eggs are fragrant and soft, lettuce is refreshing, potatoes are delicious, and the white chopped chicken is fat and delicious. Liu Jingui quietly asked his son: "Do you eat like this at every meal?" ”

Liu Jinye whispered: "When you didn't come, the four of us generally ate meat and vegetables, and the portion was enough to eat." Xiaocao said that you can't eat partially, and you should have a proper combination of meat and vegetables. Her skills are good, and she cooks for us every day, even Sun Runze, who doesn't like to eat vegetables, has to eat half a bowl of vegetables every meal. ”

When the father and son were whispering, Sun Runze was shy with his little belly, as if he remembered something, and said, "Second sister, where is the grasshopper sauce?" It's so delicious, take it out and give it to my dad to taste! ”

Yu Xiaocao glanced at him, as if I was stingy and reluctant. She said angrily: "How can anyone entertain guests with pickles?" Besides, take it out now, you still have a belly! Tomorrow morning, it's never too late to eat with tortillas! ”

Sun Runze covered his mouth and burped, and said embarrassedly: "Then let's eat it tomorrow morning, I'm almost eating to my throat, so full...... Yu Xing, give me more grasshopper sauce on the cake tomorrow, remember! ”

Sun Jialin couldn't help but cover his face, he really didn't want to admit that this complete foodie was his son. However, judging from the attitude of the son and the Yu family's siblings, the relationship between the children on weekdays is still very good, and it is more harmonious than the family.

Especially after eating, the scene of several children rushing to wash the dishes surprised the two fathers. When he was at home, his son never did the work of washing dishes, not even the kitchen. What else do you say about "gentlemen are far away from cooking", it seems that it is because there is nothing in the kitchen that attracts them, and they are also fighting for daily meals!

After eating, the two fathers inspected their son's food in recent days and found that whether it was breakfast, lunch or dinner, the nutritional mix was very reasonable. And as his son said, he cooks in a different way, and he doesn't bring the same for a week. The ingredients of the meal, judging from the current market price, are divided equally among the four of them in a month, and the cost is far more than the twenty taels of silver that the son said.

It was not early, and when the two fathers said goodbye, one of them took out four ingots and ten taels of silver ingots. Sun Jialin said to Yu Xiaocao, who wanted to resign: "Little girl, don't be in a hurry to resign. If it were calculated according to previous years, we would not give ten taels of silver, but this year's New Year, even if you have money, you can't buy those dishes. Now, if there is a handful of fresh and tender green vegetables, even ten taels of silver, someone will rush to ask for it. Therefore, according to your food today, fifty taels of silver a month, we will still take advantage of it! ”

Liu Jingui also chimed in: "What Brother Sun said is right! Miss Yu tries her best to prepare three meals for the two children every day, if we still let you suffer, how can we bother you in the future? If you don't accept it, Ye'er won't bother in the future! Sun Jialin also nodded.

The little fat grandson Runze looked frightened: "Don't! Second sister, help! I'm used to your craft, tell me to go back and eat pig food from the cafeteria, I'll die!! ”

Sun Jialin patted his son and scolded: "Da Zhengyue, what do you say that you can't die?" ”

Sun Runze stuck out his tongue at his father, and immediately pretended to be pitiful to Yu Xiaocao: "Second sister, you have pity on me, just accept it...... Anyway, my dad is not bad for money! ”

Someone on the pole to stuff money, if you don't accept it, you are a fool! Yu Xiaocao also felt that the nutritious meal she matched every day was definitely worthy of fifty taels of silver. In Zhenyulou, fifty taels of silver for one meal is not enough! In Sun Runze's pleading and Liu Jinye's earnest gaze, Yu Xiaocao "reluctantly" accepted eighty taels of silver. Coupled with the food expenses of ten taels and one hundred taels a month given by the two of them at the beginning, I really didn't dare to think about it before, but now, it's barely enough......

Because the Yu family is always wafting with an attractive fragrance, not only do the neighbors keep asking them what they eat, but there are also many strangers haunting the neighborhood recently, and the appearance of probing their brains looks ill-intentioned.

The Yu family only has two sisters and brothers, just like children holding gold bricks in the city, which has aroused the evil intentions of some people. After being reminded by Xiao Mending Tianshi, Yu Xiaocao sent a letter back and asked Dad to bring the big ash over the next time he sent the ingredients.

The majestic big gray walked around the door a few times, and most of the ill-intentioned guys were shocked. There are also scheming guys who immediately reported to the official, saying that Tang Guzhen had entered a fierce beast and wanted to use the power of the government to get rid of the gray wolf raised by the Yu family.

The officials received the tip, rushed over, and when they saw it, it turned out to be the pet that the prince of the county asked the Yu family to help raise, and there was a false alarm. Then the head catcher went to the Yu family's neighbors to popularize science: Big Gray is a pet wolf raised from childhood to adulthood, and if you don't take the initiative to provoke it, it won't bite. The Yu family has not been quiet in the past few days, and specially invited Da Ash from Dongshan Village to come to the town house.

As a result, the vast majority of people with ulterior motives retreated. There are also a few people who do not believe in evil and feel that the pet wolf is not enough, so they climbed over the wall in the middle of the night and touched the Yu family's house......

The Yu family's neighbors were woken up by a scream at night, and when they came out to see their clothes, the Yu family ran away in embarrassment, followed by the big ash that people used to town houses. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this person steals chickens and rice, and wants to bully the Yu family with only two sisters and brothers, and wants to go in to get some benefits, but he was bitten by the wolf raised by the county prince.

The point is, if you bite in vain, do you dare to ask the prince for medical expenses and compensation? It's no wonder if I don't arrest you as a thief and treat you for offense! With Big Ash here, the siblings can finally sleep peacefully.

As the days passed, the prefectural test in late February was getting closer and closer. The three of them are studying with small stones, and they are getting more and more intense day by day. Fortunately, Yu Xiaocao changed her tricks every day to add food to the three of them, otherwise the three little ones would be like other students in the academy who were preparing for the exam, and they would be getting thinner and thinner. Due to the proper nutrition matching, the three friends were ruddy and full of energy, and Sun Runze's guy gained a few pounds. In the academy, gentlemen always use them as examples to motivate other candidates and let them prepare for the prefectural examination with full enthusiasm.

The day of the county examination is approaching, and the atmosphere of learning in the college is becoming more and more tense, for their own future, in order to win glory for the college, and for the glory of their ancestors, every candidate who is preparing for the county examination is studying hard.

However, Yu Xiaocao instilled the concept of combining work and rest into the three small ones. If it collapses too tightly, it will be like a rubber band, which is easy to break. Therefore, every time it is time to rest, Yu Xiaocao will take the three little ones back to Dongshan Village to experience life.

Sometimes go up to the mountains to hunt birds, before winter comes, there are a lot of locusts on the mountain, so other animals have decreased sharply, and there are still a lot of birds that spend the winter. She took them with small stones and used the method of catching birds in the textbooks of her previous life, so that they could experience the sense of accomplishment of catching birds. The millet used as bait is mixed with spirit stone water, and it is very good every harvest. These birds are all packed up and brought back to the town as food.

Sometimes I take them to the beach to catch shellfish from the sea, and the things they get from the sea are also taken back to the town to make delicious seafood and add food to them.

Sometimes, take them to the dock to see the hard work of the dock workers, help Yu Xiaolian take care of the business, increase social practice, and experience the people's suffering......

Driven by Yu Xiaocao, their vacation was happy and meaningful, their horizons were broadened, and the articles they wrote were more in-depth, and the gentlemen frequently praised and praised them. Going out to play not only does not delay learning, but also effectively improves the quality of the article. The three little ones are full of enthusiasm for Xiu Mu.
