Guozijian little cook

Originally, Xiao Nianzhi was planning to go over to visit Mr. Feng Er, but the other party was afraid that there were all men there and would ruin her reputation, so he wouldn't let her go there no matter what.

Now Xiao Nianzhi can only wait for the other party to come over.

Aunt Yu talked to her about her family life, and mentioned that Zhuangzi had already raised ducklings provided by Yan Xingxuan.

He also said that the lambs they had given birth to earlier had grown a bit, and they would probably be able to kill them and eat the tender lambs in the summer.

There are also pigs and deer raised on Zhuangzi...

A new pond has been opened in Zhuangzi next door. Someone has measured it and dug out the groundwater. Now there is plenty of water, just right for raising fish. It is estimated that in the summer, we will be able to eat fresh fish.

"I'm currently checking to see whose geese are better. I plan to raise some. I'll stew them in a pot and eat them in autumn. It's just good for the body."

"I'll also have people clean up the trees and grass behind Zhuangzi, and then we'll pick out the ones we can use."

……

More than half a year has passed, and when Aunt Yu said these words, she still couldn't help but sigh.

I always felt that time passed obviously unpleasantly, but it seemed that a lot of things had happened between them.

It was probably during the Chinese New Year, and various changes in the capital stretched the timeline, making many things seem as heavy as a layer of dust.

Xiao Nianzhi listened, nodding his head, and saying a few words from time to time.

Xiao Nianzhi gave the recently made lipstick to Aunt Yu early in the morning.

Because he tried new floral scents, Xiao Nianzhi took two new flavors and gave them to Aunt Yu.

Aunt Yu accepted it with a face full of joy, and then talked about the soap she was preparing recently.

This timeline will be stretched and will no longer be used for the time being.

However, it is actually quite easy to use, convenient and fast. Although it is not as expensive as the materials used in bath beans, it is more convenient to operate.

Moreover, it feels very comfortable to use.

If the cost can be reduced, many ordinary people may be able to afford it.

Of course, poor people don’t have to think about it.

Because it involves grease, the cost cannot be suppressed no matter how hard it is reduced.

Xiao Nianzhi can only do his best to change people's livelihood.

After all, when people's lives are better and more stable, the country will be more stable and their lives will be more comfortable.

Aunt Yu was listening and couldn't help but look forward to it.

She believed in her little apprentice's ability, so she was full of expectations for the beautiful items Xiao Nianzhi described.

From time to time, I will also ask: "Is this thing enough?"

"Is there any more of this?"

"I still have some over there. Just tell me if you think about it. I'll find someone to send them over later."

……

Aunt Yu asked a few questions from time to time.

Xiao Nianzhi still has the raw materials now, so he is not in a hurry.

So, after letting Aunt Yu go, I talked about the glass greenhouse again.

At the same time, Xiao Nianzhi was thinking about another thing.

That is……

A telescope that is very helpful to the military!

Compared with other glass products, this thing is simpler and easier to operate in principle.

Of course, it's also because it's more important.

Therefore, Xiao Nianzhi planned to do this first.

Of course, part of the reason is that Yan Xingxuan is now ready to make moves in the northwest.

They probably think that as the weather gets warmer, they can do it again!
General Guo is also recovering recently, and the imperial physician is taking his pulse every day to check his condition.

What General Guo means is that even if he dies, he will have to die on the battlefield. He cannot live in retirement directly in the capital!
But His Majesty does not agree!

General Guo's ability is not only fighting on the battlefield, but also his own military ability.

Such a talented person died directly on the battlefield?His Majesty thinks this is a waste, so he actually doesn't agree with the other party directly going to the battlefield again.

Xiao Nianzhi felt that she could not go to the battlefield to help, but she could help with other military details.

Forget about the cannons and all that.

She also wants to be free.

Therefore, these cannot be done for the time being.

But you can still try some small items!

Thinking of this, Xiao Nianzhi told Aunt Yu his thoughts again.

Aunt Yu:.

Sorry, I don't understand.

However, you still have to pretend to understand and look very surprised.

Okay, now I can’t hold it anymore.

Because her eyes were blank and her head was empty.

Seeing this, Xiao Nianzhi didn't make it difficult for her. He suppressed his whim and talked about other things.

Aunt Yu has lived in the palace for a while and is ready to leave the palace.

Xiao Nianzhi thought, master and apprentice haven't seen each other for a long time, how about getting something to eat?

Therefore, when noon was approaching, Xiao Nianzhi asked Isatis to prepare the ingredients.

When Aunt Yu heard that her apprentice was going to cook, she was reluctant to leave.

Yan Xingxuan stayed in the outer hall in the morning and was not in a hurry to go in.

Now that I heard that Xiao Nianzhi wanted to cook, although I felt sorry for the little girl, I didn't stop her.

After all, this is a disciple's filial piety to his master, and he can't stop him.

Yan Xingxuan can't stop it, but he can choose to join!
Aunt Yu has been tense recently, dealing with the affairs in the harem, and it is rare for her to relax, and her hands are itching.

Then, the three people and their servants started to do it directly!
Although spring has begun, there are actually no vegetables to eat in the fields.

What can be eaten now are all kinds of winter vegetables.

Radishes, cabbage, potatoes, etc.

Of course, there are also various dried vegetables and the like that are dried in summer and autumn.

Xiao Nianzhi picked out the dried beans and planned to cook some meat with them later.

Roasted Pork with Dried Beans, this is a typical heavy-flavored dish, very delicious with rice!
In addition, there are also options such as winter melon and pumpkin.

Xiao Nianzhi is going to make another winter melon stuffed with meat, which is relatively delicious.

A quick stir-fry dish like hot and sour potato shreds is naturally indispensable.

Of course, these few words alone are not enough.

There are three of them.

Therefore, Xiao Nianzhi planned to make another stewed vermicelli with pickled cabbage and pork belly.

This is considered a soup dish and tastes smooth and delicious.

In addition to these dishes, staple food is definitely also required.

Xiao Nianzhi could have steamed buns or rice, but she was not sure what Aunt Yu and the others wanted to eat, so she turned around and asked: "Aunt, brother, what do you want to eat as staple food?"

Yan Xingxuan thinks Dabai Steamed Buns are pretty good.

Aunt Yu wanted to eat something fresh, so after thinking about it, she asked tentatively: "How about...flower cake?"

This is a snack prepared by the Crown Princess who recently helped the Queen.

It is said to be the practice in the southwest.

The princess's ancestral home is close to the southwest, so there are people in her family who know how to do it, and she has also learned some.

The craftsmanship is not exquisite, but the ingredients are good, so it tastes good.

Aunt Yu ate well, but she was too embarrassed to ask for anything more, so she tentatively talked to Xiao Nianzhi now. (End of chapter)
