Chapter 267: Indulgence (second update)
Thinking of the way Cui Hejin took care of her last night and what Mrs. Cui said just now, she felt warm in her heart.
Jiang Zhiluo was thinking about making something delicious for Cui Hejin.
I also want to be nice to him.
Mrs. Cui was stunned when Jiang Zhiluo mentioned the melon cake.
In her understanding, this melon is just a vegetable. It tastes average when eaten stir-fried.
Can you make cakes?
Mrs. Cui understands that as long as it is the food Zhiluo studies, it must be delicious.
She has never eaten vegetable pancakes.
Cui Qingci’s eyes brightened.
The food made by my sister-in-law is simply delicious.
“Sister-in-law, let me help you and give you a shot.”
Jiang Zhiluo said: "You don't need to sleep more."
Cui Qingci said: "I'm used to getting up early, and I can't fall asleep even if I lie in bed for a long time."
Jiang Zhiluo thought for a while and said, "If you want to make cakes, it's best to make some porridge as well."
They are also used to making some soup or porridge for breakfast.
Cui Qingci knew that Jiang Zhiluo could make porridge of various flavors.
I don’t know what she is going to do.
Jiang Zhiluo looked at the rice that Mrs. Cui had washed and thought for a moment: "Since rice is used to make porridge, let's make preserved egg and lean meat porridge!"
Speaking of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, Jiang Zhiluo has never made it, and they have never eaten it.
Mrs. Cui remembered what Zhi Luo said about preserved egg and lean meat porridge when she was making preserved eggs.
But none of them have eaten it.
Mrs. Cui said: "Do you need preserved eggs?"
Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said: "Well, the four of us will eat it. Let's cut four preserved eggs and put them in!"
Cui Qingci said: "I'll go get the preserved eggs from the jar."
She looked forward to the food cooked by her sister-in-law.
"good."
Cui Qingci ran to get the preserved eggs.
Jiang Zhiluo picked up the green onions and **** washed by Mrs. Cui next to her and began to cut them.
Cut the green onion into chopped green onions and cut the **** into shreds.
Cut the pork into minced meat.
When Jiang Zhiluo did this, her movements were very fast and her knife skills were very neat.
At this moment, Cui Qingci also washed the preserved eggs.
“Is it used like this?”
Jiang Zhiluo said: "First boil the preserved eggs in a pot, and then cut them into cubes."
Mrs. Cui said, "Then I'll light the fire and cook the preserved eggs. They'll cook very quickly."
Mrs. Cui put water in the pot and boiled the preserved eggs.
“Zhiluo, can you cook just four?”
Jiang Zhiluo thought for a while and said, "Let's cook four more so that we can make a plate of cold dishes for dinner."
"good."
With that said, Cui Qingci went to get the preserved eggs to wash again.
Jiangzhiluo washed the horned melon and beat it into silk with a beater.
The thread beating machine did not exist at this time. Jiang Zhiluo asked a blacksmith to make it.
It is much more convenient to make silk in this way.
Cut the melon in half, scoop out the flesh, and beat it into shreds.
Beat it into shreds and put it in a basin, then add salt, pepper powder and other seasonings and stir.
Add chopped green onion, mix well, and marinate for a while.
Add in the eggs and mix well.
Add appropriate amount of flour and appropriate amount of water to make a paste.
Cui Qingci looked on with curiosity.
She has been here for more than a month and has never seen her sister-in-law making this kind of cake, so she was quite curious about it.
She thought it was a vegetable, but she didn’t expect it could be made into pancakes.
I don’t know how it tastes either.
Cui Qingci asked: "Sister-in-law, are you going to fry it next? I'll light the fire."
Fortunately, the stove house has two pots, so you can use them for cooking without any problem.
Jiang Zhiluo said: "Well, this pot is used to make pancakes, and that pot is used to cook porridge."
Cui Qingci quickly picked up firewood and burned another pot at the stove. After the pan is hot, add oil, then pour in a little batter and brown both sides.
After frying one piece, take it out and put it on a plate, and then continue to fry it.
A strong fragrance comes out.
"smell good!"
Cui Qingci was obviously not hungry early in the morning, but now she was salivating from the smell.
I feel hungry.
Jiang Zhiluo said: "It's a little hot when it comes out of the pot. It won't be hot after a while. You and your mother can taste it first."
“No, no, let’s eat together.”
"But, sister-in-law, I heard from my eldest brother that he has something to do today, so he won't go to school."
Cui Qingci was also a little puzzled. Her eldest brother had never been a truant before. He was very self-disciplined.
In the past, studying and taking classes could be done rain or shine.
When I came here, I went to take classes with the students. If I said I didn’t want to go, I wouldn’t go.
“Ah! Oh, that’s it!”
Jiang Zhiluo was stunned, but she didn't expect that Cui Hejin didn't say it was her idea.
It would be embarrassing to say that she wanted Cui Hejin to stay with her at home.
Cui Qingci couldn't help but think about it. Could it be possible that what she said to her eldest brother last night was heard by her eldest brother.
Actually, she didn't say anything, she just told her elder brother what the women in the town were saying.
“Ms. Jiang, it’s not easy for you. You used to buy bread, but now you sell soap. What about your man? If your man can make money, you don’t have to show your face in the hot weather!”
Yes, that’s what she said.
“Zhiluo, the preserved eggs are cooked, what should I do?”
Jiang Zhiluo said: "Mom, I know how to fry pancakes, but I can't use my hands to cut the preserved eggs. You can help cut the preserved eggs into cubes."
"good."
Mrs. Cui opened the pot, took out the preserved eggs with a slotted spoon, and then poured them into cold water.
This way it is easier to peel without burning it.
Next, she peeled the preserved eggs, peeled four preserved eggs, and then cut the preserved eggs into dices on the chopping board.
“Zhiluo, is this okay?”
“Mom, put some rice and water in the pot, just like you would normally cook rice porridge. When it is half-cooked, add preserved egg, diced ginger, shredded pork, and cook. When it’s cooked, just add a little seasoning.”
After saying this, Mrs. Cui understood and started cooking.
Soon, breakfast was ready.
Jiang Zhiluo went to the yard and called Cui Hejin: "You should take a rest and eat first."
Seeing that Cui Hejin has been busy, Jiang Zhiluo also feels a little distressed.
Cui Hejin put down his axe, and looked at Jiang Zhiluo with a half-smile.
Jiang Zhiluo's face turned red when she was looked at like this.
“Are you kidding me?”
Cui Hejin smiled and said warmly: "No, how could I give it up!"
Yeah, I can’t bear to laugh at her, I just think she’s cute and tight sometimes.
Jiang Zhiluo always feels like being pampered and pampered.
My heart started to beat with excitement.
“Then you think I’m being unreasonable.”
“No, as long as you are happy.”
Yeah, he just wants to make her happy.
But he can't give Zhi Luo glory and wealth now.
“If you don’t want to go out to do business, you don’t have to do it. I’ll support the family!”
His hands are now healed and he can do more things without leaving his family hungry.
Jiang Zhiluo shook her head and said: "No, I think this is good, and every day is quite fulfilling."
Compared with modern times, business at this time was not so complicated, and there were not many people who knew how to cook food, so it was easier to set up stalls and do business.
Perhaps because he is here, she also likes this place and this era.
Even the air you breathe is fresh.
Living here, the pace is slow, very comfortable, and it feels like a vacation.
“Would you mind if I do business in public?”
She doesn't care about anyone's opinion, only his opinion.
The words of those women yesterday also made her think seriously.
