"We'll have it ready in a moment and bring it over to Brother and the others."
"Okay, I'll serve it!" Ying Shuangzhu waved quickly and spoke excitedly.
My sister makes delicious food, it must taste very good.
Although he has never eaten chestnuts, his sister said that delicious food must taste good.
When Huang Xuecao heard what Ying Shuangzhu said, she rolled her eyes at him, "You bastard!"
"By the way, darling, people from the Sifang Escort Agency came to the house before."
"Huh?" Ying Qingci paused slightly as she washed the chestnuts, then raised her head and looked at Huang Xuecao, "Grandma, is there any news about uncle and the others?"
Huang Xuecao briefly explained the news brought by Xia Wen. When Ying Qingci heard that Xia Wen returned ten taels of silver, surprise flashed in his eyes.
After all, it was agreed at the time that the deposit would not be refunded even if no one was found. Why was half of it suddenly refunded now?
"Grandma, just keep the money. I'll find a chance to go to the Sifang Escort Agency later."
"good."
After hearing Ying Qingci's words, Huang Xuecao's heart finally calmed down.
The chestnuts had also been cleaned during this period. Ying Qingci divided them into two halves, placed one half in the pot aside, and picked up the other half with a knife and made a slit on it.
"Grandma, do you still have sugar at home?"
"Yes, I'll get it for you."
Huang Xuecao nodded when she heard Ying Qingci's words. Ying Qingci also bought sugar last time. She couldn't bear to use it more, but if Ying Qingci used it, she wouldn't know how to write the word "distressed" at all.
If Ying Shuangzhu and the others saw it, she would be said to be biased.
Ying Qingci smiled, her grandma still supported her as always.
She put all the open chestnuts in a small wooden basin, poured in water, and soaked them.
Taking advantage of this gap, she cooked the chestnuts in another pot, "Uncle, if you know how, just follow this heat. It can't be too big or too small, otherwise the cooked chestnuts won't taste good."
"Okay, keep it on me."
Ying Shuangzhu patted his chest with an assurance on his face that he might not be able to do other things, but when it came to lighting the fire, he dared to say that he was the best among the brothers.
Therefore, Ying Qingci left this matter to him, don't worry.
Ying Qingci was amused by his proud expression of "I know how to set fire to fire".
However, he didn't pour cold water on him.
"Okay, it will be cooked in a while. Uncle, eat more."
"Really?" Ying Shuangzhu's eyes lit up instantly when he heard this.
"real."
Ying Shuangzhu suddenly worked harder. He now felt that his whole body was full of strength and he must eat more soon!
Ying Qingci also looked away, fished out the chestnuts that had been soaked in the water, drained all the water, and set them aside for later use.
After that, heat the spare iron pot until dry, pour in salt, and pour all the dried chestnuts into the iron pot.
When stir-frying, the skill of the person holding the spoon is tested. Be sure to stir-fry evenly and stir-fry the chestnuts in the iron pan evenly. Otherwise, the chestnuts may be raw or cooked, or even burnt. Therefore, when stir-frying, When frying, be sure to pay extra attention.
After the chestnuts slowly swell and the color of the salt gradually becomes darker, at this time, add a spoonful of sugar to the pot evenly and slowly. Do not pour it all at once, but slowly and pay attention to the rhythm.
Huang Xuecao watched from the side, her eyes full of pride.
Their Guaiguai is good-looking, even the way he cooks is so good-looking, and his skills are so good... I don’t know who will be worthy of their Guaiguai in the future.
Ying Qingci's attention was completely focused on the pot in front of her. After the sugar was added, the salt would slowly become thicker and turned black, while the sugar would caramelize, and the aroma would gradually come out.
"Mmm-it smells so good!"
Ying Shuangzhu, who was lighting the fire, suddenly moved his nose and smelled the fragrance in the kitchen.
"The smell is a little burnt, but it also has a hint of sweetness. It's a fragrance I've never smelled before!"
After Ying Qingci heard Ying Shuangzhu's words, her hand was very steady without shaking, but a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Uncle, it's not ready yet. It will be ready in a while. Let you be the first to taste it!"
"good!"
The spatula kept turning in the iron pot. With each turn, Ying Shuangzhu felt that the aroma around her was getting stronger and stronger. Ying Qingci did not stop moving. She needed to ensure that the caramel in the pot did not stick to the pot.
After taking out the spatula, cover the pot, simmer for a while, and then it's ready.
After finally waiting for the pot to be served, Ying Shuangzhu had already hurriedly joined in.
Picking one up and stuffing it directly into his mouth, Ying Qingci's eyes widened, "Uncle, be careful of the burn!"
"Also, the chestnut shells need to be peeled..."...
Before Ying Qingci finished speaking, he saw Ying Shuangzhu grinning, with some blackened shells protruding out.
She was silent and smiled helplessly.
Huang Xuecao on the side felt very speechless every time he saw Ying Shuangzhu's impatient look. He was so old, but he was still so reckless.
She glared at Ying Shuangzhu and took away the plate in front of him, "Why don't you go give some to Ahan and Aheng?"
"Sister--"
A soft voice came, and Ying Qingci felt a heavy weight on her calf. She looked down and saw a small black head.
"Xiaoqi."
"Sister (Xiao Liu), you are back!"
Ying Qingjia and Zhu Qing walked in from the outside and saw Ying Qingci, and their eyes suddenly lit up. Ying Qingjia even strode up to Ying Qingci and glanced at the little chubby man next to her legs.
During this period of time, Ying Qinghao didn't eat less, and his figure became even longer. Although he was not particularly round, Ying Qingjia liked to call him Little Fatty.
"Sister, you are finally back. Don't you know that this little fat guy has been talking about you all day long, and my ears are almost calloused."
"Hmph! Second brother is bad!"
Ying Qinghao puffed up his cheeks and looked angrily at Ying Qingjia, who was complaining. Then, he hugged Ying Qingci's legs tightly and said, "I miss you, sister!"
"Sister, what does this smell like?"
Suddenly, Ying Qingjia felt a scent of fragrance coming into his nose. He moved vigorously and looked at Ying Qingci with bright eyes.
"Second brother, you came back just in time. I made roasted chestnuts with sugar. I just finished them. You guys should try them too!"
"Roasted chestnuts with sugar?"
Sweet? As soon as he heard that it started with "Tang", Ying Qinghao's watery eyes lit up. He raised his head and looked at Ying Qingci, his little hands still holding her dress.
"Yes, it's sweet."
Ying Qingci stretched out her hand and flicked Ying Qinghao's little nose, her eyes full of endearment, "You little snack."
Ying Qinghao smiled and didn't refute, he just liked Ajie.
If Ying Qingjia had said this, Ying Qinghao would have sent him back.
