The best peasant woman

Chapter 13 Yunmei Cries
So the two of them felt sorry for each other!
"Brother Lou, I heard that your mother's cough is much better, but is it true?" Pei Wenhao asked again.

"Well, thanks to Ms. Zhang, with her folk remedies, my mother's cough has indeed been relieved a lot." Lou Xilei said.

"Do you know medicine?" Pei Wenhao couldn't believe what he heard.

"Well, I didn't believe it at first, but my mother's cough did ease later." Lou Xilei explained.

Pei Wenhao stopped talking, bowed his head in thought, wondering if his fiancée's dementia could be cured?A peasant woman is better than a fool!How could he be so unlucky!Must marry a silly girl!Why!

"Brother Pei, what do you think she will do with the braised pork?" Lou Xilei is rarely curious about one thing.

"Let's just go and eat!" Pei Wenhao didn't feel any curiosity.

"Why don't we go peeping?" Lou Xilei's lips curled up into a playful smile, as if he had a fun novelty toy and wanted to show it to his friends.

Pei Wenhao became curious when Lou Xilei said it, "Aren't you going to take a look together?"

So the two looked at each other and smiled.

Zhang Axiu held a plate of braised pork and hid in the corner of the wall, bursting into tears with excitement, that's right, thinking that what she ate in modern times was not only delicacies from mountains and seas, but also a combination of meat and vegetables, what do you want?

But after traveling to this overhead time and space, every meal is forced to eat green grass and wild vegetables, damn, she is not a rabbit!
No, the mother-in-law and the two sisters-in-law didn't eat any meat, why don't you save some and bring it back to them three days later to serve them as well.

But on such a hot day, this braised pork is not easy to preserve!What a headache.

Wait, she remembered that the modern thrifty mother used the leftover braised pork from the previous day. If she didn’t eat it the next day, she would chop it up and add dried tofu and flour to make chive noodle pancakes.

Looks like I'm going to borrow space in the kitchen to make scallion pancakes.

After thinking about it, Zhang Axiu happily ate half of the braised pork, and counted the remaining eight yuan.

So she hurried to the kitchen, borrowed a pot from Aunt Wang who was in charge of the kitchen, and spent ten Wen to get some flour, dried tofu and other ingredients.

There are two tall sycamore trees near the entrance of the kitchen. At this moment, Lou Xilei and Pei Wenhao are pointing their toes on the branches.

"It's not clear from the tree, let's go to the eaves and break off the tiles to have a look, maybe it's clearer!" Pei Wenhao frowned and muttered in a low voice.

Lou Xilei nodded, tapped her toes, and quickly flew to the tile eaves of the kitchen, raised her hand neatly to remove the two tiles, and saw Zhang Axiu kneading flour.

"Just now she was eating like a greedy cat, but now she looks like a cook, she seems to have two brushes, but is the food she cooks really edible?" Why did she chop up the braised pork and stir it with dried tofu together?
Pei Wenhao said softly with a smile, a doting smile flashed in his eyes.

"Forget it, let's go, this is for the servants to see, they have to laugh at me!" Lou Xilei suddenly remembered his identity as the young master, and felt very embarrassed, so he wanted to get out of the way.

"Brother Lou, you've seen it all, let's finish it!" Pei Wenhao said with a smile as his folding fan blocked Lou Xilei's way.

Lou Xilei nodded, "Yes."

Zhang Axiu spent two sticks of incense to finally finish the scallion noodle cake. The last step was to sprinkle green onion, which made the taste even more fragrant.

What she made is salty, without sugar, and only brushed some honey on the surface, so the taste is naturally better, with the smell of chives, the meat inside, mixed with the smell of this sesame oil, it makes Zhang Axiu feel It's like making salty mooncakes myself.

As soon as it comes out of the pot, it is very fragrant, and the people who hook it are salivating, and even hooked the gluttons of the two beautiful men on the tile eaves.

Aunt Wang was full of praise for Zhang Axiu's culinary skills, and she kept calling her a good cook.

Zhang Axiu has a smile on her face, but in her heart she thinks that I am Bai Fumei in modern times, I don't want to change careers, maybe I can find my way home and return to modern times.

Zhang Axiu wrapped the scallion pancake in oiled paper, thinking that she could go back to eat it for her mother-in-law and two sisters-in-law three days later, and she was in a particularly good mood.

Lou Xilei and Pei Wenhao went back to Wangyue Pavilion to recite poems and fight against each other, but suddenly felt that the food on the table in front of them could not match the temptation of scallion pancakes just now.

"Um...Brother Lou, can you lend Miss Zhang to my house for a day tomorrow?" Pei Wenhao's heart itch, he is also a foodie, now that he sees delicious food, he wants to cherish talents.

"That can't be done, my mother said she would make medicine, and she went to Pei's mansion, what should my mother do?" Lou Xilei shook her head and politely refused.

"Okay then, I'll come back tomorrow." Pei Wenhao thought in his heart, since Miss Zhang stayed in Lou Mansion for three days, he could hire her to be a cook in Pei Mansion on the fourth day.

Lou Xilei glared at him angrily, "Didn't you say you were going to attend the Junshan Flower Fair tomorrow?"

"I'm not going, it's better to stay in your mansion more comfortably. Well, it's getting late, I'm leaving!" Pei Wenhao opened his fan with a snap, fanned it, and walked away gracefully.

Lou Xilei shook his head, suddenly he raised his lips and smiled, what a rare peasant woman, he underestimated her, not only was she a bit talented, but also had such wonderful cooking skills, ordinary people eat braised pork, how could she Thinking about how to save it?
After Zhang Axiu stayed in the building tremblingly for three days, the old lady's cough really eased a lot, and now she basically doesn't cough much. Zhang Axiu told Yinsuo to let Silversuo insist on cooking for the old lady every day. A bowl of candied pear water will cure the cough in the future.

Today is the fourth day, Zhang Axiu took the money from Mr. Accountant early in the morning, and put the well-preserved scallion pancakes in her bag. She went to say goodbye to Mrs. Lou, and said some precautions to Mrs. Lou by the way.

Mrs. Lou saw that she had been in the Lou Mansion for the past three days, and she had never gone for a walk in the Jusong Pavilion where Lou Xilei lived. She was somewhat satisfied with her, so she sent someone to hire a bullock cart , Send Zhang Axiu home.

But at this moment, Zhang Axiu just got into the bullock cart, and saw Pei Wenhao approaching with a smile. Under the sunlight, his slender and handsome figure seemed to be covered with a layer of gold.

Zhang Axiu was slightly dazed, and looked up to see that he was wearing an elegant light blue brocade shirt, his black hair was half tied up with a white jade ribbon inlaid with the same color, his phoenix eyes were piercing, his teeth were bright, and his lips were bright. Now take a closer look, It’s really beautiful, people and gods are indignant, I didn’t appreciate it in Yueyang Tower that day, and I didn’t look carefully at the Loufu on the first day, today I really saw what it means to be a jade tree facing the wind, what is a stunning beauty?

"Pei... Mr. Pei, you... are you calling me for something?" Zhang Axiu was stunned for a moment, and then immediately came back to her senses. She was not Yunying's unmarried girl, she was already a married peasant woman. So she asked with a faint smile.
