Farmer's Head: Busy farming

Chapter 167
Chapter 167

"Look at your gluttonous appearance." Xi'er looked at Zhu'er and couldn't help laughing, reached out and tapped Zhu'er's little head, and then said, "I don't know much about the tastes of your era. "

"What does our era mean?" Zhu'er was stunned, apparently unable to digest the meaning of this sentence.

Xi'er has been in this world for more than half a year, but she still misses a few words from time to time, subconsciously feels that she is not in line with this era, and occasionally looks at everything around her with the attitude of a bystander.

"It's nothing, just kidding, I'll teach you how to cook." Xi'er stood up, patted her dress, and then said to Zhu'er with a smile.

As soon as Zhu'er heard this, she immediately took out two aprons from the door. Xi'er ordered Zhu'er to make these aprons, because she was a girl, and embroidered her name and lace thoughtfully, which looked pretty.

Zhu'er is not very good at cooking, but in order to be able to wear a beautiful apron, she can patiently learn some simple things with Xi'er.

The ingredients in the kitchen are all fresh, and the preparations are complete. Qingzhi didn't come to find fault, and these days, he didn't bother to find fault with Xi'er, and went to Xie's yard every day to show courteousness.

The most important thing is to steam the meat with pickled vegetables. Xi’er washes the pork first. If you put some seasonings in cold water, take it out after it is cooked, wash off the foam with clean water, and then wipe off the water stains with a cotton cloth. Deep-fry the pork skin in hot oil.

The color of the top-quality pork belly after being cooked looks very attractive, and Zhu Er is staring at it intently.

"Zhu'er, go and shovel a basin of clean snow in." At this time, there is no ice cube water, and tiger skin can be made with snow water, Xi'er thought for a while, and then ordered.

Well fried meat, why is it suddenly going to snow, it’s still a pot, in such a cold day, Zhu’er couldn’t help asking in a low voice, “Sister Xi’er, why do you need snow?”

"Go and get a pot, I'll show you, it must be clean." Xi'er is not worried, there is not so much air pollution in this world, and the snowflakes are also white.

Zhu'er seemed to understand, but since Sister Xi'er had given her orders, she would follow suit. She took a small wooden basin and shovel for the kitchen, and went out to shovel snow.

It is really hard to find clean snow in this yard. The snow on the ground has been swept away, leaving only the snow on the leaves of the evergreen trees.

Zhu'er was perplexed and teased a little bit, Cheng An came out from the hall to get things, saw Zhu'er squatting on the ground, he couldn't help but stepped forward and asked with concern, "What are you doing?"

Zhu'er was concentrating on shoveling the snow, when she heard Cheng An's voice suddenly, she was somewhat startled, she turned her head to look at Cheng An and said angrily, "Brother Cheng An! Why are you scaring me!"

Cheng An didn't do it on purpose either, at the moment when Zhu'er was so fierce, he was immediately cowardly, "I, I didn't do it on purpose, I watched you squatting by yourself from a long distance, so I came up to ask you."

Zhu'er turned her head and ignored Cheng An, and concentrated on shoveling the snow, the snow on this leaf is really too little, I don't know when it will take to get a pot.

Looking at her series of actions, Cheng An couldn't help but asked curiously, "What are you doing? Playing with snow? You also have a pot, you know how to play."

"Just kidding, Sister Xi'er asked me to shovel a basin of clean snow. The snow in this yard has been swept away, where can I find it!" Zhu'er looked at Cheng An and glared at him angrily. just said.

Hearing this, Cheng An was overjoyed, and then said, "A pot of snow? You shovel it like this? The Year of the Monkey is over." As he spoke, he pointed at Zhu'er's pot and laughed loudly.

"Xiaoxiaoxiao, you know how to laugh, I am helping sister Xi'er, and it's not something the young master ordered." Seeing that Cheng An's smile was too wild, Zhu'er stepped on Cheng An fiercely, That's it.

Cheng An bared his teeth in pain, not daring to be more cheerful, he could only say aggrieved, "You, don't step on me, I'll just help you."

"How can you help me? There is no snow in this yard." Zhu'er looked at the yard, feeling a little worried.

Without further ado, Cheng An took the basin from Zhu'er's hand, carried it and went out.

Zhu'er was short-legged, Cheng An was walking in front, and she trotted after her. Cheng An turned left and right and led Zhu'er forward. Not long after, he saw a field that had never been trampled on by anyone. snow.

"Wow, there's so much snow here!" Zhu'er looked at everything in front of her in surprise. The snow will be swept away, just in case the masters slipped while walking. This place is really special.

"The snow on the stone table should be enough for you." Cheng An stepped forward, shoveled off the snow on the stone table and put it in the wooden basin, and then he spoke.

This place is a small garden in the Chu Mansion, and there is no special scenery, so no one comes here in winter, and the servants will not come to clean it.

Cheng An helped Zhu'er shovel half a basin of snow, then carried it back for her, and took it to the kitchen.

Xi'er was still concentrating on frying the pork skin, when she saw Cheng An coming in with a basin, Zhu'er's face was flushed red from the cold and followed behind, she couldn't help laughing, "You two are really inseparable."

"How can there be!" Zhu'er said as she snatched the basin and put it on the table happily for Zhu'er.

Cheng An smiled a little embarrassedly, "Then you are busy, I will go get something for the young master."

"Thank you, Cheng An." Xi'er nodded, suddenly remembered something, and immediately asked, "Cheng An, is the young master going out today?"

"I'm not going out, I'm reading the ledger in the study." Cheng An shook his head, as if he hadn't heard that the young master was going out.

Only then did Xi'er feel relieved, "Then I'll finish this later and send some to the young master."

"What delicious food did you make again?" Cheng An stopped immediately when he heard that there was something delicious, and asked seriously.

Seeing his appearance, Xi'er was exactly the same as Zhu'er just now, so she couldn't help laughing, "You two are really serious, didn't the young master ask me to cook the dishes for the family banquet? I'm preparing them."

"What? Thinking about what to do so well?" Cheng An couldn't help being a little surprised, he thought Xi'er would have to think about it for a few more days.

"Yes, I'm working on it. I'll give you a taste later. If it's not good, I'm improving it." Xi'er nodded, seeing that the pork skin was almost fried, picked it up with chopsticks and put it directly in the snow basin. When the hot pigskin meets the cold white snow, it immediately smokes and makes a sizzling sound, and the snow turns into water in an instant.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Cheng An couldn't help being a little surprised, "Miss Xi'er, you really know how to play."
