Chapter 283: Unlock the Study
The Queen Mother naturally also noticed the snowy moon cakes, and now after Yan Xingxuan's praise, she felt that this crystal fragrant little fat man looked even more delicious.
She took a sip first, which was soft and sweet, with a strong milky flavor.
After the Queen Mother finished eating, her eyes lit up.
When the braised pork is braised and it feels fresh, the taste is really different from that of the imperial kitchen.
However, mooncakes are two completely different feelings.
If the braised pork is just a shallow breeze on her heart, then the moon cakes, like the sun, shine warmly on her heart, so that the Queen Mother can't ignore the fragrance and sweetness that brings her amazement and pleasure.
No wonder, Little Sixteen always wants to run that way.
Not to mention whether I have a crush on the girl of the Xiao family, only this delicious food......
It's tempting enough.
It just so happens that Xiao Sixteen is a good delicacy, and the other party has such craftsmanship.
The Queen Mother thinks that this wave is earned by Xiao Sixteen!
It's just that Xiao Nianzhi is still in the filial piety period after all, and the Queen Mother is not ready to discuss too much, lest some bad rumors spread afterwards, which will be unfavorable to the little girl.
Whether it is the information from the investigation or the fact that Zheng Qingran was asked before, the Queen Mother is very satisfied with Xiao Nianzhi.
Now that I have eaten this mooncake, I am even more satisfied.
The Queen Mother was amazed, then praised a few words, and quickly diverted the topic.
Everyone also talked about something else.
Although Yan Xingxuan has the intention to show off, he also knows that it is too much.
Therefore, everyone stopped ridiculing more, and he didn't say anything about it, just quietly enjoyed the food, and thought it was delicious, so he secretly wrote it down in his heart, and before he was ready to go back to the palace, let the imperial dining room make it, and he took it out!
While everyone was eating and drinking, His Majesty was busy in the field of the Ministry of Industry with a group of officials.
In addition to the officials of the Ministry of Industry, Shanglin Yuan Supervisor, Si Agricultural Supervisor and other relevant departments, most of the officials were also called out.
It will be more efficient for everyone to study together.
The large-scale autumn harvest is the flow of rice, millet, and corn.
Especially corn, although the yield per mu today is not as good as that of later generations, it is really hard compared to other crops.
So, come on!
After the Mid-Autumn Festival moon appreciation, Xiao Nianzhi went into the delicious kitchen and fooled around for most of the day.
It was really a piece of melon skin, and I didn't let it go, and I cooked it in soup and drank it.
After working for most of the day, her delicious kitchen has finally been upgraded to level seven!!
[Congratulations on reaching level 7 and unlocking a new scene: Study (initial 4 square meters)]
……
Although the four-square-meter study room is not large, it can hold a lot of books.
After Xiao Nianzhi was pleasantly surprised, he plunged into it.
After watching it for a long time, my eyes came out in circles again.
For those advanced knowledge, Xiao Nianzhi just wants to say: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not worthy!
However, there are a lot of books on agriculture that have been brushed out.
Later, as the level increases, the area of the study increases, and more and more books will be unlocked.
The existing books cover all aspects of agriculture.
Including raising pigs, chickens, rabbits and the like.
After Xiao Nianzhi finished reading it, he only felt ......
Well, why don't you eat saliva chicken tomorrow?
But compared to saliva chicken, what she needs to consider now is actually ......
Isn't it time to give Yan Xingxuan a return gift?
Thinking of the noodle people, Xiao Nianzhi first carried out a wave of experiments in the delicious kitchen, so that if he went to the academy tomorrow, if he had free time, he could get all kinds of complicated pre-steps up.
Other ingredients were used up by Xiao Nianweaving, but there were many flour and rice.
So, get it up.
Because he used to make small pieces, Xiao Nianzhi still remembers his more convenient formula.
The main ingredients of the noodle man are flour and glutinous rice flour.
If there is a preservative, the two are in a ratio.
If there are no preservatives, the two are in a different ratio.
The current situation is that there is no way to keep it fresh for a long time without preservatives.
However, it is not a big problem and does not affect the production.
Xiao Nianzhi picked a relatively simple recipe, which only needed flour, glutinous rice flour, honey and salt.
In fact, if there is glycerin, the dough that comes out at the end will be more malleable.
Although the study has been unlocked, the extraction of glycerin is very troublesome, if you wait for this raw material, then your own gift will be good next year.
So, make use of existing materials and you're good to go.
Steaming noodles is the easiest two steps, and then you have to be silent for more than 20 hours, waiting for the flour to get stronger, so that it will be more convenient to knead it again.
Of course, in order to ensure the moisture of the flour and the ductility of the flour later, it is also necessary to add sesame oil or vegetable oil with a light taste to the middle before silence.
These pre-steps are actually quite simple.
The trouble is......
Color.
In modern times, all kinds of food colorings can be purchased at any time after searching on the Internet.
Nowadays, if you want to use it, you have to extract it from every plant and tree in nature with your ability.
Xiao Nianzhi was glad that she had studied food coloring and knew what colors could be extracted from many materials.
She was going to send Yan Xingxuan a table of delicacies, so there were a lot of colors involved.
Whether it can be extracted or not is still unknown.
She made a list of the materials she would probably need, and prepared to buy them on the way back to the academy tomorrow and try them out.
After the matter was done, the dough needed to be silent, so Xiao Nianzhi had nothing to do for the time being, so he simply cleaned up and went to sleep.
At this time, in the outfield of the Ministry of Industry, everyone, including His Majesty, was still studying and busy.
The blacksmithing team and the carpentry team are all in place, and at this time, the lights on the outfield are like daylight, and there are bursts of sounds.
And Xiao Nianzhi has slowly fallen asleep.
The other day, the weather was still good.
Xiao Nianzhi got up early, and after Walnut waited for her to freshen up, she also gestured with her: "The master didn't return home yesterday." ”
Uncle didn't come back?
Is this an all-nighter job?
Xiao Nianzhi thought uncertainly, but she probably couldn't ask Walnut about these things, so she just nodded: "Well, I'll tell the second brother when I go back." ”
Xiao Siye didn't come back, although Xiao Qing didn't share a academy with them, but he still stopped by the way.
So, the three brothers and sisters shared a carriage.
When he was on the way, Xiao Nianzhi asked Uncle Zheng to help buy some things.
Xiao Zhou looked at it and asked in a low voice: "Is the money on my sister's body enough?" Second brother, there are still some ...... here."
As he spoke, Xiao Zhou had already begun to take out his money bag.
Xiao Qing looked at it, although he was also shy in his pocket, but he was still a little bit there, and he also took it together.
Xiao Nianzhi took a look and hurriedly stopped: "Second brother, third brother, don't don't, I still have what I have here, and the rewards from Your Majesty and the eldest princess have not been used up yet." ”
Hearing this, the brothers of the Xiao family, who were touching the money bag, paused in their hands, and their expressions were stunned.
