Shennong Pharmaceutical Field

Chapter 95
Uncle Guo looked at his beloved apprentice, adopted son, and prospective son-in-law with complicated eyes, a little appreciative but also a little worried. Seeing that he finally agreed with Yao Tiantian's statement, he finally nodded in relief. Turning to Yao Tiantian's face, she said with anticipation, "Tianniu, now tell my uncle the recipe of "Shanjiaqinggong"."

"Okay." Yao Tiantian nodded generously, thought for a while, and said, "Our generation produces celery, so I will recite a recipe about celery cooking. It has a nice name, Bijian Geng. "

In fact, as early as Yao Tiantian was about to talk about the recipes of "Mountain House Qinggong", Yaoxiang boy had already opened the ancient recipe book for him, and turned to the page of Bijian Geng, quietly reminding her: " Some plant ingredients may not exist in this time and space, but celery is common here, so let’s talk about this recipe.”

Yao Tiantian glanced at the introduction on the LCD screen in front of her, and slowly recited word by word: "Qingchu, Caiye, also known as Shuiying. There are two kinds: Diqin for its roots, and Chiqin for its leaves and stems." , all edible. Pick it when making soup in February and March, wash it, put it into soup, burn it, take it out, grind sesame seeds with bitter wine, add a little salt, soak it with fennel, and it can be used as sausage. It's clear and sweet, like green and clear."

After Yao Tiantian finished speaking, she looked at the confused eyes of Xiangzi and Uncle Guo, she turned her eyes, smiled lightly, and asked her uncle to say the translation of this literary recipe, "I like to eat celery, so I begged my uncle to explain this dish: Qinchu is a vegetable, also called Shuiying. There are two kinds: one is called Diqin, which is eaten from the root, and the other is called Chiqin, which can be eaten from leaves and stems. Two Pick it when making soup in March and wash it, put it in boiling water, scald it, take it out, grind sesame seeds with bitter wine, add less salt, soak it with fennel, and use it as a side dish. And use it to cook soup, it is refreshing It is fragrant and fragrant, like clear water in a mountain stream.”

Hearing Yao Tiantian's translation, Guo Dabo and Xiangzi finally suddenly realized, and showed joyful expressions.However, in this way, Yao Tiantian was puzzled. The recipe for the mountain and sea soup that Xiangzi recited yesterday was also so literary. If they don't understand classical Chinese, what's the matter with that recipe?
Yao Tiantian was puzzled, observed the expressions of Uncle Guo and Xiangzi with quiet eyes, and slowly said another recipe, "Green fine rice, the first is this, and the heavy grain is also." According to "Materia Medica": "Nanzhu Wood, now known as Heifancao, also known as Eclipta. "That is Qingjing. Pick the branches and leaves, mash the juice, soak the white good japonica rice, no matter how much, wait for one or two hours, steam the rice and expose it to dry, hard and blue, and store it. If it is used, first use boiling water, and measure it by the number of rice. Boil it and it will serve as rice. Water should not be too much, nor less. Long-term use will prolong life and beauty. There is also green stone rice in the fairy recipe, and the world does not know why the stone is. According to "Materia Medica", use three catties of green stone fat, green sorghum A bucket of rice, soaked in water for three days, pounded into pills, such as Li Da, take it with white soup, one or two pills will not make you hungry. It is also known as Shizhi. Both methods have evidence. The first method is to serve guests in the mountains, so the previous method should be used , if you want to follow the ovary bigu, you should use the latter method."

After finishing speaking, Yao Tiantian didn't continue talking about the translation.Xiangzi, who is obsessed with cooking but has never read any books, waited for Yao Tiantian to translate. After waiting for a long time, Yao Tiantian didn't see an explanation. Xiangzi blushed with anxiety and stammered, "Sweet, sweet Master Niu, here, how do you make this green rice?"

Although Uncle Guo didn't speak, his eagerly waiting eyes were no less relaxed than the anxious Xiangzi's. He subconsciously trembled slightly so that his calf betrayed the panic and anticipation.

After confirming that Uncle Guo and He Xiangzi really don’t understand classical Chinese, Yao Tiantian showed her doubts on her face. She tilted her head and seemed to be talking to herself, “I, I don’t know, this recipe uncle He didn’t explain it to me, but I thought Brother Xiangzi could explain it to me.”

"Me?" Xiangzi opened his eyes suddenly, pointed to the tip of his nose, and said embarrassedly, "I, I, I have never read a book, so how could I understand such a recipe? I only understand that it mentions " "Materia Medica" and "Materia Medica", it seems that this dish still has medicinal properties, but I really don't understand how to do it."

As Xiangzi said, he looked at his master and boss Guo Dabo for help. After receiving the same anxious and helpless eyes, he still pinned his hopes on Yao Tiantian and begged, "You have been with your uncle for these days. , I must have learned some classical Chinese, so you can explain it to me."

"That's not right, Brother Xiangzi." Yao Tiantian seemed to suddenly remember something, tilted her head and said, "I remember that the recipe of Shanhai Geng mentioned by Brother Xiangzi yesterday was also recorded in this way. How can you understand? How did you get to this green dish?" Don’t you understand Jingfan?”

Yao Tiantian mentioned the recipe of Shanhai Geng, Xiangzi flinched anxiously, and glanced at Uncle Guo as if he had made a big mistake, and lowered his head guiltily.Uncle Guo's face was full of confusion, which lasted about as long as a cup of tea, and he finally made up his mind.

Uncle Guo slowly sat back on his seat, and began to talk with a confused look on his face:

One afternoon more than a year ago, Xiangzi and his fellows were all sent to buy vegetables, and Guo Dongqing was drowsily guarding the Guo’s restaurant alone, when suddenly an old Taoist priest in green shirt came to the shop , asked him if he wanted to make his Guo family restaurant famous in ten miles and eight towns, Guo Dongqing naturally wanted to, but he didn't believe that such a good thing could happen to him.

Guo Dongqing made the best tea in the store for this strange old Taoist priest, and observed for a long time, beating around the bush and observing his words and expressions, before he was convinced that this strange Taoist priest was indeed a real Taoist priest, not a fake one, and it seemed that he did not have any malicious intentions. Only then did he dare to ask the old Taoist priest how he could make his Guojia restaurant famous in all the towns and villages, and what conditions the Taoist priest had.

The Taoist priest in Qingshan took out the recipe of 'Shan Hai Geng' directly, and explained the above text in detail to Guo Dongqing, saying that there is only one condition, that is, let him take this dish as his signature dish, and let him take this dish as his signature dish. The township widely publicized it, but told him not to disclose the origin of this recipe to others.

Guo Dongqing followed the instructions of the old Taoist priest and did not tell others how to get the recipe, but quietly showed it to Xiangzi. Afterwards, the master and apprentice spent a lot of money to buy bamboo shoots from other places, and served them with local fish and shrimp. , according to the method given by the old Taoist, finally made a delicious mountain and sea soup.

Guo Dongqing was overjoyed, and quickly released this dish, as expected by the old Taoist priest, not long after Shanhai Geng was launched, Guo's restaurant was immediately known by everyone, even the rich and powerful families in Ning County There are people who come here to eat this dish.

However, although this mountain and sea soup is delicious, it is also recognized by everyone.However, its main ingredient, bamboo shoots, is not easy to get, not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also very expensive, and the restaurant often runs out of materials.Yesterday Xiangzi heard Yao Tiantian mention that he had seen bamboo shoots nearby, he was so happy for a while, he told the recipe of this soup, hoping to buy the ingredients directly from Yangjiatun, then the profit of their restaurant will be doubled .

Afterwards, Xiangzi anxiously told Guo Dongqing about the incident, wanting to buy bamboo shoots from Yangjiatun nearby, but also worried that the owner would blame him for revealing the secret recipe of Shanhai Geng.After Guo Dongqing found out, she asked Xiangzi not to bring up this topic again for the time being, and she quietly observed this clever little girl in her teens.

As a result, he hadn't seen through Yao Tiantian yet. Yao Tiantian published two famous cookbooks, "Food Treasures" and "Shanjia Qinggong", and frankly put Bijian soup and green essence into them. The secret recipe of the rice was revealed, so Guo Dongqing was moved and ashamed, and then he told the origin of the secret recipe of Shanhai Geng.

After Guo Dongqing finished speaking, she lowered her head slightly and said, "Tianniu, it's my uncle's villainous heart. You are an open child, so uncle will not hide it from you. You will keep the secret for uncle, right?"

Yao Tian sweetly nodded and assured, "Uncle Guo, don't worry, I won't go out and talk nonsense."

While talking, I added something in my heart, I won't talk about this matter, as long as I know it.The secret recipe of this mountain sea soup was released on purpose by someone, and he was also a Taoist priest, an old Taoist priest, so it shouldn't be Wei Xingyan.What is the connection between them?

It should not be accidental that the old Taoist chose the restaurant in Qingshui Town.In the end, this matter has to be found on the word 'Shanhai', because there is nothing suspicious about the recipe of this dish, but the name is weird. Is the other party trying to scare the snake?
Yao Tiantian pondered secretly, Guo Dongqing opened his mouth again, he looked at Yao Tiantian's face, and asked a little cautiously, "Now Tianniu already knows the biggest secret of our Guo's restaurant, then would you like to?" Help uncle find the nearby bamboo shoots?"

"That's easy to say." Yao Tiantian temporarily suppressed the messy thoughts in her heart, and said with a smile, "Our Yangjiatun has beautiful mountains and waters, and the bamboo shoots produced must be very good. If we can supply the famous Guojia Restaurant in the village, it will also be the favor of the villagers. It is a way of making money, which is beneficial to both parties, and I am naturally willing to do it."

"Then, Uncle, I will ask you for your injury. When Xiangzi recovers from his injury, let him go to Yangjiatun to find you." Uncle Guo immediately became happy when he heard that Yao Tiantian agreed so happily, as if he What I was facing was not a teenage girl, but a serious matter like an adult.

Grandma Huniu listened in silence for a long time, and when she heard her son say that Xiangzi was going to Yangjiatun, she immediately interjected, "Xiangzi will go to Huniu and let her aunt look after her, and also go to read some books with Mr. Yao in Yangjiatun. Braille."
