Isn’t this idea too unconventional?
What kind of brain can come up with such a method!
"Everyone has seen that my yard is too small, and I have to leave some areas for paving for activities. There is not much space to grow vegetables. Since the area on the ground is not enough, I can only develop it in the sky."
In a word, potential is forced out.
The Shen family's small courtyard is relatively good. Modern high-rise residential buildings have all kinds of vegetables, and even soilless cultivation has been developed.
Cheng Xi can also be regarded as absorbing the experience created by future people.
Little friend Feng'er had already let go of Shen Xingqi's hand and ran to the corner very skillfully. He picked up the small bamboo building and ran to the three-story wooden trough to stand there.
"Sister Xi, what do you want to eat today?"
That way clearly meant "I'll pick whatever you tell me to eat." His serious look of waiting for orders was so cute that the girls' attention was immediately attracted to him.
"Feng'er can pick whatever he wants to eat, okay?"
"Okay, okay~\(^o^)/~"
The little chef helper is now online!
***
The boiling clear spring water is immersed in the purple sand pot, and the tea leaves rolled into rice grains are like dead wood floating on the water surface, rolling up and down, ups and downs several times, and finally reaches the bottom of the pot and calms down.
The aroma of tea is overflowing and refreshing.
The male guests in the front yard talked loudly about the past and the present, nodding from time to time to exchange opinions and sipping tea. The female guests in the backyard living room gathered together to eat chestnut cakes and talk about interesting things they had encountered recently.
Feng'er Xiaodu knew how to sit obediently on the small bench, with a small basket of picked vegetables beside her.
It wasn't until noon that Wang Shu, who had simply prepared all the ingredients, walked in and whispered a few words. Then Cheng Xi handed over the reception of the guests to Shen Xingqi, and got up and went to the kitchen.
Feng'er tilted his head upon seeing this, his dark eyes sparkling with light, he picked up a piece of chestnut cake closest to him and put it into his mouth.
"Sister Xi, wait a minute..."
"Are you really planning to come over and help?"
"Feng'er is very powerful, um, even more powerful than last time!"
Cheng Xi was happy, "Okay, then follow. You can complete the task assigned to you."
The meat, vegetables, onions, ginger, garlic and other seasonings in the kitchen had already been washed and chopped. She glanced at the many ingredients and knew what they were.
"Is Su Zhan back?"
"I'm back. I've grabbed what Madam needs, and it's here."
Cheng Xi glanced at the wooden basin in the corner and saw something alive fluttering inside. She casually handed the small basket of vegetables to Feng'er for him to pick, and then threw herself into cooking.
"Stab it——"
As the temperature of the hot pot with lard slowly rose, she put the washed and dried ribs into the pot and fried them until they were golden on both sides, and a scent soon spread into the air.
As time goes by, bursts of fragrance gradually drift out from the kitchen and follow the autumn wind to every corner of the second courtyard.
The aroma was so strong that it didn't give others a chance to refuse. It penetrated into everyone's noses and made everyone's heart itch.
Several people in the front yard who were discussing the past and present and current affairs all stopped, and for a moment the whole living room was silent.
"Ah - it's sweet and sour pork ribs, my favorite sweet and sour pork ribs!"
Qin Zheng was the first to break the silence of the living room, and took a deep sniff of the smell in the air, with an expression of enjoyment.
The sudden surprise shocked everyone else. Except for Qu Shaojing, who was half a military general, several other literati almost had their eardrums broken.
Chen Xingluo: "..."
He remembered that last time someone shouted that braised pork was their favorite while eating, and he immediately twitched his mouth and turned his face away, pretending not to hear.
"I was scared to death. I was so startled."
Qu Shaojing rolled her eyes at him angrily, "What is sweet and sour pork ribs? Is it a dish? Why haven't you heard of it before?"
"Of course you didn't
Heard it. "
Qin Zheng looked proud, as if he had cooked the dish himself.
"Let me tell you, my sister-in-law's cooking skills are unparalleled in the world, so you guys are in for a treat today."
Several people said nothing while smelling the aroma lingering on their noses.
They really didn't know what sweet and sour pork ribs were, but the slightly sour and sweet taste of the caramel in the air was very mouth-watering. As soon as they smelled it, they knew that the dish was definitely good.
The burnt smell on the tip of the nose had not dissipated, but a spicy smell came next, which was more domineering than the previous aroma.
"Sauerkraut fish!"
Qin Zheng swallowed, and the expression on his face became even more pleased, leaving everyone speechless again.
"I asked you what happened, did you guess what it was when you smelled it?"
They don't know any of it!
"Of course, I am Brother Shen's best confidant."
Qin Zheng raised his chin to greet Yourong, with the words "I have eaten this dish" written all over his face.
Everyone: "..."
Doesn’t it just take advantage of the geographical advantage? Are we both from Lin'an Prefecture so proud? They are all people from the capital who grew up at the feet of the emperor. Did we say anything?
Chen Xingluo was quiet and talkative, while the others looked confused, so the rest of the time became a special session for Qin Zheng to name the dishes.
"Braised pig's trotters!"
"Fried Shrimps!"
"Pork in pot."
"..."
The unfamiliar dish names came out of his mouth one by one. The expression "I've tasted them and I'm proud" made Qu Shaojing's teeth itch and he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
"I didn't see you talking so much when we were talking about current affairs just now. How dare you use all of Young Master Qin's genius in other areas?"
However, this makes people really jealous. Why didn't he know that the Shen family's food was so delicious before?
If I knew he would come here often!
"What do you know? Life is about eating and drinking. You work yourself to death for that little salary. Is it possible that your life is better than mine?"
"..."
No, how do you speak so confidently if you don't seek advancement?
Just because your Qin family is rich?
Everyone here was speechless. Qin Feng, his cousin, couldn't help but hold his forehead when he saw him looking like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water. He pretended not to recognize him.
It was almost dinner time, and the whole living room was filled with waves of fragrance. Several people simply stopped discussing the topic and sat in their seats to wait quietly.
So hungry, really hungry.
It was strange. They had obviously had breakfast and drank tea all morning, but just a quarter of an hour ago they felt full. How could they become hungry so quickly?
Before anyone could figure out the reason, a spicy and rich smell swept through the entire living room again. Perhaps it was because too much chili was added, and the smell was really choking.
"Ah ah ah, my sister-in-law has made a new dish again!"
Qin Zheng suddenly opened his pair of green glowing eyes, exuding the feeling of "wanting to eat".
He had never smelled this smell before. It was definitely a new dish that was gone.
The anticipation is building again!
