Husband, Have Dinner

Chapter 20: Ginger Fish Congee

It rained heavily all night, and it wasn't until the sound of the bell came from the Bell and Drum Tower in the early morning that the rain was gradually closed.

The plantain plant outside the elephant's eye-pane was verdant and dripping, and the rice-sized water droplets of lotus seeds rolled back and forth on the broad leaf surface. Inadvertently, they rolled to the tip of the leaf and became a droplet, hanging on the tail of the leaf and struggling. .

Another naughty drop of water rolled over, and the two drop of water merged into one, falling from the leaf, ticking, and splashing on the rugged rock to produce a beautiful splash.

Sheng Xiang and Yao Cui came in to serve, and saw A Yao sitting on the bed in a daze.

They smiled at each other, "Girl, it's time to get up."

A Yao did not respond.

Yao Cui called again, feeling something was wrong, and sitting in front of A Yao, she found that her eyes were hollow and her face flushed.

"Girl, Ms. Jiang!" Shaking Cui and probing her forehead, she shrank back when she touched the hot forehead, and Ayao collapsed.

A Yao saw the cook again in a daze, and saw many things, such as when the cook was a child, such as the night at Renguang Temple...

"I'm no longer alive, you take my place, my life in this life will be ruined in your hands, and now you are not even willing to clean up my grievances."

The voice of the cook came from all directions, flooding this space.

The night when Renguang Temple was continuously circulating in the space, it turned out that the original chef lady took the initiative to regain her body and expelled A Yao, but she did not expect Pei Shuo to roar and the monk threw her out. That impact completely killed the original owner.

The picture cycled repeatedly, and Ayao stepped back, covering her ears and reluctant to look at it again.

In the room, A Yao fell asleep, the doctor looked around, looked at the coating on her face, eyelids and tongue.

Yao Cui asked, "Doctor Sun, what about the girl?"

Doctor Sun thought for a while and said, "It won't be a problem. I will give her a soothing soup. When she wakes up, you can grab a rooster and let her hold it. You can cook some fish porridge for her these days."

Sending off the doctor, Pei Shuo came after hearing the news.

"How do you take care of people!?" He scolded, scrupulously looking at A Yao, who was ill. She frowned, not knowing whether it was uncomfortable or because he quarreled her, he pursed his mouth and said again. "What did the doctor say?"

Shao Cui repeated Dr. Sun's words in a soft voice, and Pei Shuo was stunned. The cock...hold, heal?

"That's the prescription that travel doctor prescribes to the people, called the'malaria method'." Shengxiang saw Pei Shuo at a loss, explaining, "it is to let people look for a rooster with a bright crown, hold it in his arms, pinch it from time to time, and pinch it. It makes the rooster keep crying, and the rooster's yang energy can be strong..." When she said this, she seemed to understand, and she didn't know what to say.

"What can you say, go on!"

"You can drive away evil spirits..." Sheng Xiang's voice became lower and lower, thinking of the soothing soup prescribed by Doctor Sun, is it because she has something dirty on her body?

"Nonsense!" Pei Shuo was angry. "It is clear that you did not take good care of her. Last night, lightning and thunder, rain and squalls made her catch cold." He paused, "Don't go to the kitchen alone to order the fish porridge! "

Pei Shuo sat on Xiao Xiaozi angrily, watching Yao Cui take care of her, thinking of Fu Bo patted her chest to pack the ticket.

Nanxun County's government office is very busy early in the morning, and the county magistrate is overwhelmed.

First, someone found Wang Mazi who was dead in the alley. Wang Mazi's family members went to the Shangxian government and cried and complained. Before sending away the crying women, the Pei family sent a greeting note, saying they The young master was in danger at Qingning An. This wave of unrest has started another wave. I don’t know where the nuns of Qingning An got the news. They came to the county office to beat the drums and complain. Some people slandered their reputation of Qingning An. They and the monks of Renguang Temple have done many things for the people in the four townships and eight counties. They watched the watch in the middle of the night and made porridge during the famine. Now they have been wronged by others, and they have to ask for an explanation.

The magistrate is anxious, and the nuns in Qingning’s are not willing to leave because they don’t ask for justice. The people sent by Pei’s family hope that he will send someone to clean up Qingning’s. Wang Mazi’s affairs are done by the old man. It is not too late to investigate slowly, but what about these two companies?

The staff was late, he had just spoken to the people on both sides separately, and turned around and said, "My lord, we can't offend Pei's family."

"How do you say?"

"Jing Zhaowei's family has an other courtyard in the county, which is one of the dowry of the first wife of the founding period, and used it to escape the summer heat of Pei's family. In the other courtyard, the servant must be talking about Grandpa Pei. Grandpa Pei is destined to be a nobleman. Why should he offend the future founder for the sake of a few monks?" said the aides.

The magistrate pondered for a moment, and his staff continued, and he nodded, "Just do as you say."

When A Yao woke up, her headache was splitting and her throat was dry. "Water..."

Shengxiang quickly helped her feed a few mouthfuls of hot water, and then reached out to probe the temperature of her forehead, "The forehead is not so hot anymore, girl, how are you feeling now?"

A Yao knew that she was radiating heat everywhere now, and her whole body was about to smoke, and she had a fever in all likelihood.

"I'm fine, Sister Shengxiang, I still want to drink water."

Shengxiang poured her a bowl of water and continued to feed her. She craned her neck and couldn't wait to stretch out her hands to take the bowl, slurping a drink.

"Drink slowly, Shao Cui has cooked fish porridge for you, and you can eat it later."

"How did you make yourself sick? It's too stupid." Pei Shuo said after watching for a long time.

"how could I know."

A Yao woke up, her whole body was soft, even her bones seemed to be soft, she vaguely remembered a beautiful cook, she clearly remembered her dreams, but after drinking water, people would wake up a little more. remembered.

Shaocui came in carrying a pot of hot porridge, the lacquer plate also had two small Geyao ice cracked celadon bowls, and she served Ayao and Pei Shuosheng the porridge respectively.

Smelling the scent, A Yao cheered up and couldn't wait.

The snow-white fish fillet reveals the tip of the iceberg, the rice flower grains at the bottom of the porridge are sprinkled with a pinch of green onions, and the green onions are dotted with the porridge and noodles. With the fragrance of the fish porridge, A Yao's index finger moved and her belly called Zhenghuan.

"What a great craftsmanship." A Yao just took the first bite, and the tears almost rolled down. The taste is so familiar, it's raw porridge!

Prepare a pot of white porridge in advance to make the porridge base. A good white porridge is like the bowl made by Wunian. The rice grains are raw, the cotton silk has the porridge oil, the fish fillets are sliced, the thickness is uniform, and they are laid flat with the ginger. Sprinkle a little salt flower on the bottom of the bowl and rinse with hot white porridge. The fish fillets are instantly blanched, white as snow, without a trace of red blood, and finally sprinkled with a little green onion embellishment.

A bowl of hot fish porridge is made, and it melts in your mouth when you eat it, keeping the freshness of the fish to the utmost extent.

A Yao almost swallowed her tongue.

The hot porridge feels very comfortable when I drink it. I sweat, my body is not so heavy, and I feel more energetic.

She said "I want to learn how to cook porridge."
