The first lady is sweet and sweet

Chapter 40

"But madam, slaves can't do it!" Shiliu said embarrassedly looking at Qi Yaoyao, afraid of her disappointed face.

"Gah?" Qi Yaoyao's face suddenly collapsed, she suddenly returned to look at her and said, "I'll teach you! Let's chop meat! Let's kill fish!"

"This slave meeting." Pomegranate nodded and looked at her.

"I have ginger, do you need ginger for cooking?" Qi Yaoyao asked her with bright eyes, "I use it to get rid of the smell."

"Yes, but it's dried ginger and needs bubbles." Pomegranate hurriedly said.

"Okay, there are ginger slices and peppercorns! Do you have the water and starch needed for the fried meatballs?" Qi Yaoyao asked with bright eyes looking at her.

"Ma'am, we haven't fried meatballs before, so there is no water starch, but pepper." Pomegranate thought about it and looked at her and said.

"Okay! What's the use?" Qi Yaoyao had no choice but to say, "Do it now, or wait."

Pomegranate wanted to say that she had just eaten lunch, and it was still early for dinner!But looking at her anxious look, "It will take time to kill the fish and chop the stuffing."

"Hmm!" Qi Yaoyao nodded hastily.

"The slave first soaked the dried ginger slices, and then went to kill the fish." Pomegranate said simply.

"Okay!" Qi Yaoyao nodded happily, she was really fed up, and looked around in the kitchen again, "Garlic?"

"It's just that they all sprouted." The pomegranate soaked in dried ginger slices and looked at her and said.

"It doesn't matter that you can eat garlic sprouts, you can use them to get rid of the fishy smell." Qi Yaoyao said positively, really not polite at all.

"It can't be used too much, Madam should say that slaves are prostitutes." Pomegranate quickly reminded her looking at her green eyes.

"Uh... If you have something useful, you can use less!" Qi Yaoyao murmured for a long time and had to say, the kitchen was empty and sad to see.

Pomegranate put the large knife in the tub and walked out of the kitchen with the tub in hand.

The weight of this wooden basin is not light, and with the addition of water and two fish, she carried it away so easily, Qi Yaoyao asked worriedly, "Where are you going, Pomegranate?"

"Go to the well in the backyard, where you can kill fish." Pomegranate glanced back at her and replied.

"Oh!" Qi Yaoyao nodded hastily and chased after him.

The two walked to the well, and Pomegranate put the tub down.

"Let's drink the water from this well!" Qi Yaoyao said as she stood by the well and probed her head.

"Yes!" Pomegranate picked up the bucket hanging on the reel, threw it down with a plop, shook the rope, filled the bucket with water, and then shook the reel to shake the bucket up.

This well water is of good quality, sweet and refreshing.

Qi Yaoyao slandered in her heart, if she can drink water to be full, let her drink water every day, she will definitely not get tired.

The pomegranate hit the water, washed the bluestone slab near the water outlet, and then grabbed the fish in the wooden basin.

"Brush..." Pomegranate began to scrape the fish scales in a neat and tidy manner.

"You are amazing." Qi Yaoyao praised without hesitation.

Pomegranate was embarrassed to be praised, and her cheeks were flushed as if she had touched rouge, "This is nothing? The more you do, the better."

"No, she said that the fishy smell is strong and not delicious. I thought you wouldn't eat it?" Qi Yaoyao raised her eyebrows and looked at her with her long eyelashes trembling.

"You have to eat it if it smells bad! How can you say it's also meat!" Pomegranate said without raising her head, "I'm not picky if I'm hungry." film.

"Oh!" Qi Yaoyao nodded clearly. If you are hungry, you can eat grass roots and bark. If you have fish, it is simply delicious.

Qi Yaoyao watched her skillfully scrape the scales, open the fish, and clean up the fish.

After washing the bluestone slab that had killed the fish, Pomegranate went to the kitchen with the fish in the tub and the cleaned fish.

Pomegranate put the fish on the vegetable pier, and chopped the head, tail, and fins neatly.

Qi Yaoyao watched as she was about to start filling fish, "Hey! Wait a minute."

"What's wrong?" Pomegranate looked up at her and said.

"The fishy thread, I haven't taken it out." Qi Yaoyao pointed at the black thread in the middle of the fish's side.

"Can this be taken out?" Pomegranate looked at her, and her eyes fell on the fish again.

"Yes!" Qi Yaoyao pointed at the fish with her finger, and then instructed her to take out the fishy line, cut it at the position of the fish's gills, pat the fish's stomach with a knife, and found a white spot, and then use her hand to remove the white spot to pull out.

Pomegranate looked at the long white line in her hand, "This is the fishy line!" She looked at her curiously and asked, "Without this, will the fish have no fishy smell?"

"It can only be said that it is reduced, it cannot be completely eliminated." Qi Yaoyao looked at her with her black and white eyes and said, "If you want to remove the fishy smell, you have to use various seasonings, even white wine."

"Young master doesn't drink alcohol, there is no alcohol at home." Pomegranate said quickly after hearing this.

Qi Yaoyao raised her eyebrows and looked at her when she heard the words. If she doesn't drink, she probably thinks that alcohol is too expensive!But she also doesn't like alcohol, she loses her morals after drinking, and drinking is too wrong!
"That vinegar, is there any vinegar?" Qi Yaoyao suddenly remembered and looked at her and asked.

"There is vinegar, soy sauce, these basic seasonings are still available." Pomegranate said with a smile, "But do you want to put vinegar in the fish balls?"

"No, no, put some before steaming and marinating to get rid of the fishy smell." Qi Yaoyao looked at her with pure apricot eyes and said.

Pomegranate removed the two fishy lines and sliced ​​off the fish fillets. "These thorns are endless, and some are too small."

"Chopped, chopped to pieces." Qi Yaoyao said directly and simply.

"Okay." Pomegranate nodded in response, and then she heard Dangdang... chopped the fish meat into mashed meat, "This fish bone has been chopped away."

"What are you going to do next?" Pomegranate put down the large knife in her hand and looked at her and asked.

"Chop up the soaked ginger slices, and put the salt in together." Qi Yaoyao said without thinking, looking at her with round apricot eyes.

The ginger slices are easy to cut, chopped into pieces, and the pomegranate searched, took out something with obvious particles and put it on the chopping board.

"What is this?" Qi Yaoyao asked curiously, pointing to the things on the chopping board.

"Salt!" Pomegranate's big eyes looked at her and said, "You haven't seen it before, this is salt, we often use it."

"It's so dark." Qi Yaoyao looked at her in surprise and said, and asked again humbly, "Is there no white one?"

"White?" Pomegranate raised her eyebrows and looked at her with doubts in her eyes.

"It's as white as snow." Qi Yaoyao's round eyes looked at her hopefully and said.

"No, maybe you have seen it, but the slave has not." Pomegranate's bright eyes looked at her and shook her head slightly.
