Chapter 206: There are always more ways than difficulties
If it is as in the past, let alone three fresh, even thirty fresh, she can also catch it, but now it is not because of the disaster in the south, and the green vegetables, fruits and vegetables are out of stock on the market
Not only that, but to the south of Dayuan are Eastern Li, Southern Xia and other countries, which are also not lightly affected, but I am afraid that it is the same situation.
Rao is the Hou Mansion is rich and rivals the country, and she can't exchange half a vegetable leaf with ten thousand taels of gold, seeing that she can't eat anything else, and she is so hungry for dumplings that she sheds tears, Mrs. Lu cries more than her.
"It's all your father's fault, I asked him to stock up on more vegetables in the past, he had to say that he couldn't hoard well, and it would be the same when he bought it at a high price, and now we can't eat it, even if we can't eat it, radish and eggplant can handle it, poor my Qi'er, it's easy to want to eat something when I'm pregnant, but I can't eat it, but what should I do?"
Lu Hou didn't expect the snow disaster in the south to be so serious, and when he saw his daughter suffering, he slammed the pillar with guilt, "It's all this god who kills a thousand knives, and it snows in the south."
Su Xiaojiu was waiting for Concubine Rong to drink porridge, Concubine Rong stuck to the bowl and smelled it, in the past, the rich and mellow rice fragrance would smell very weird, and it entered the nasal cavity, not only arching her head ache and ache, but also arousing a burst of stirring in her stomach, so she tilted her head to the side, and said with red eyes, "Take it away, this palace smells it and wants to vomit." ”
Mrs. Lu looked anxious and asked Su Xiaojiu, "Aren't you always a ghost idea, how quickly you can think of a way to let your master eat something?"
It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice, there are no ingredients, and no matter how good she is, she can't turn leeks into leeks
"Niangniang, apart from dumplings, you don't have anything else you want to eat."
A few days ago, Concubine Rong had a bad appetite, and it was okay to eat the sour soup noodles she made, but at this time, the stomach was pantothenic, and when she heard the word "sour" again, she couldn't help but twitch again, so she shook her head and said, "Don't eat it." ”
Mrs. Lu directly passed the cook over and asked what other vegetables were now, and the cook reported that in addition to radish and cabbage, it was lotus root and eggplant, and there was no green at all.
Concubine Rong didn't want to eat it when she heard it, she hummed for a while, and suddenly said, "I want to eat fried bacon with garlic sprouts." ”
But there are no garlic sprouts in this effort
Seeing that the two of them were going to cry together, Su Xiaojiu had a flash of inspiration, and hurriedly called the cook who had already retreated, "Auntie, there is still garlic in the house"
The cook said, "There is no shortage of garlic, what is the girl for?"
Pepper and garlic, these commonly used seasonings, the kitchen is generally purchased in bulk, twisted into a long rope and hung up for storage, Su Xiaojiu stroked his palm and said, "Then the tired aunt go and see, if there is any budding garlic, just pinch it down and fry bacon for the mother, it can also be delicious." ”
How can a living person suffocate urine, this is called more ways than difficulties.
The cook's eyes lit up, and she looked at Mrs. Lu, "No, why didn't the slave maid think of it?" After speaking, she praised Su Xiaojiu, "The girl is so exquisite, what she sees every day, don't you say it, we rough people don't pay attention"
As he spoke, he prepared to go to the kitchen, "Then the slave and maid hurriedly went to find out all the garlic in the stock, and it is estimated that a lot of it can be pinched out."
Su Xiaojiu shouted to her again, "Auntie, slow down, I'll go with you"
Lu Hou and his wife only thought that she wanted to cook herself, so they didn't ask much, and followed her out.
The cook didn't forget to pat the horse while walking, "No wonder the girl is so young and has been reused by nobles, if it is really incomparable to us stupid people, you can just watch the command from the side, if you do something wrong, you have to bear more." ”
Although Concubine Rong's meals are generally handled by Su Xiaojiu herself, but now that she is in the Hou Mansion, Niangniang has not yet spoken, if she takes over the work, it will inevitably make the chefs in the mansion dissatisfied, thinking that she looks down on others.
Listening to the cook's words, knowing that she misunderstood what she meant, she smiled and said, "Where did the eldest lady say, Niangniang grew up in the house since she was a child, and grew up eating the food you cooked, where is my turn to point fingers, I want to see how much garlic there is in the library, and think of a way to grow more garlic seedlings." ”
The cook entered the house when she was young, and she didn't know much about farming, and after listening to her words, she couldn't help but admire that "the girl still knows how to grow vegetables"
Su Xiaojiu smiled, "It's complicated, and now that the weather is cold, it's impossible to plant outside, so we have to think of other ways." ”
I remember when I was a child, my family was poor, and the vegetables were very expensive in winter, so my grandparents were reluctant to buy them, so they peeled the garlic clean, strung it with wire and put it in a basin, and then put it in the sleeping house.
If there is enough garlic in the house, put two pots in each person's house, and when you are hungry for green vegetables, you can also beat your teeth and sacrifice.
When they came to the kitchen, the cooks all performed their duties, and when they heard that the head of the imperial concubine came in person, they thought that the nobles couldn't eat and blamed the kitchen, and they all panicked, and they all lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak.
Looking at the silent crowd, Su Xiaojiu was confused, and the cook who came with her also saw the difference, and secretly dragged someone to inquire, haha laughed, "Don't be nervous, Miss Su didn't come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, but to help us plant vegetables."
Only then did everyone look up and find that it was Su Xiaojiu, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Xiaojiu once lived in the Hou Mansion and often came to the kitchen to cook for Wei Juan, and many cooks recognized her, but they didn't expect her to be Su Zhangshi.
"We only think that the heads of the palace are all old grandmothers, but they are actually little wine girls"
"yes, yes, I was scared just now, I thought I was going to lose my job."
Everyone laughed, Su Xiaojiu also felt cordial when he saw them again, and said with a smile, "This is not in the palace, everyone should call me by my name as before." ”
This time, the cooks had a better impression of her, and they were thoughtful, so they noticed the words of the leading cook, and asked, "Miss Su, you came here this time to teach us to grow vegetables."
The other cooks looked at each other, "We revolve around the edge of the pot every day, and we really don't know anything about the work in this field."
If you want to grow vegetables, it is more appropriate to find those who repair the garden.
Explanations are better than demonstrations.
Su Xiaojiu asked people to take a handful of garlic, peeled the skin neatly, skewered the garlic cloves with a thin wire, and coiled them into the basin of water, making everyone look in the clouds.
"That's it"
Su Xiaojiu patted the garlic peel on his hand, "Yes, that's it, just pay attention to putting it in a warm place and grow it quickly." ”
"That's fine, put it on the kitchen shelf."
The kitchen has a four-tier shelf, which used to be used for vegetables, but now there are no vegetables, so they are idle.
Everyone followed Su Xiaojiu's example, and soon the shelves were full, and there were as many as thirty or forty pots.
There was still some garlic left, and the sprouts were already quite long, so they pinched it down and washed it on the spot, and fried bacon for the mother, and the fragrance spread all over the yard, and the people who smelled it couldn't help but drool.
