After having breakfast with the bartender, Lin Xiaoyue returned to the kitchen with the tray.
Chen Yunyun saw her happy look and asked curiously: "What's wrong? Is there anything good?"
Lin Xiaoyue put down the tray and said with a smile: "Dad told me just now that he can go to the ground tomorrow. This is really great!"
Chen Yunyun clapped his hands happily and said, "This is such a happy event. Can we cook more dishes for lunch?"
Lin Xiaoyue asked curiously: "I plan to make a soup with mountain delicacies and steam some meat cakes. What do you want to do?"
Chen Yunyun thought for a while and said: "How about frying some shredded potatoes and then killing a chicken to stew the soup? There are so many people in Zhuyuan now, and one chicken is only one meal."
Lin Xiaoyue was a little reluctant. She bought those chickens for laying eggs. "I'm saving that nest of chickens for laying eggs! And I've already made soup, so there's no need to stew the chickens. There's still a lot of meat in the cellar, so
Let’s make some bacon for them to eat! I’ll make some meat drunk with white wine in the afternoon. Tomorrow, when dad can go to the fields, I’ll give him a change of taste.”
Chen Yunyun said with a smile: "You can stir-fry it instead of stewing it! It's a celebration for my uncle in advance! When we were having breakfast just now, an adult came over and said that if he wanted to eat more dishes, he might as well kill a bastard!"
Lin Xiaoyue asked with some embarrassment: "Did we cook too little? Which adult came to say this?"
Chen Yunyun thought about it and said: "I heard Zhan Ying say before that his name seemed to be Grand Scholar Guo. He said that the oil and water were a bit low, and it tasted tasteless to him."
Only then did Lin Xiaoyue realize that in order to take care of the Queen Mother's diet, she had not noticed that she had to add meat dishes to several adults.
"Oh, look at my brain, why didn't I think of it! I'll let Zhan Ying catch a chicken now, and fry the chicken with garlic sprouts at noon, what do you think?" Lin Xiaoyue said, slapping her forehead in annoyance.
Chen Yunyun nodded and said, "Okay, the chicken stir-fried with garlic sprouts is delicious!"
Just do what she said, Lin Xiaoyue watched in the chicken coop for a long time, then grabbed a chicken that had not been ordered today and walked out of the chicken coop.
"Zhan Ying, kill this chicken for me and I'll boil the water!" Lin Xiaoyue threw the chicken to Zhan Ying, wiped the chicken feathers off her hands and walked to the kitchen.
Zhan Ying was stunned when he saw Lin Xiaoyue catching the chicken neatly!
This Miss Lin is really capable of anything!
He went into the kitchen and wiped the chicken's neck with a kitchen knife, and the blood flowed into the porcelain bowl next to it. He didn't throw the chicken into the wooden basin until the blood flowed away.
"Miss Lin, is there anything else you need my help with?" Zhan Ying took a rag and wiped the chicken blood off his hands.
At this time, Lin Xiaoyue had already boiled a large pot of water. She thought about it and realized that she did have a lot of things to go to the cellar. With Zhan Ying's help, she would have to run less often!
"Yunyun, please check the water for me. Zhan Ying and I will go to the cellar to get something."
Chen Yunyun nodded and said, "Go ahead and I'll watch it for you!"
Before leaving, Lin Xiaoyue took another look at the ingredients available in the kitchen, then took a sack and walked towards the cellar with Zhan Ying.
Vegetables are very scarce in winter. You must get Chinese cabbage and radishes. You also need to get a dozen or so sweet potatoes. You can make sweet potatoes in sweet water. You also need to get more meat and ribs. They are all customers. I didn’t notice it before.
People may say later that there is less oil and water.
"Zhan Ying, I'll get this bag of ingredients, and you get the rice and flour. There are so many people in the yard now, so we need to eat a lot in a day. I think I got it today, and will come down to get it again in three or four days. Fortunately, we
There is a lot to stock up on." Lin Xiaoyue carried a bag of ingredients on her back and prepared to walk to the ground.
Zhan Ying took the sack from Lin Xiaoyue's hand and said, "Miss Lin, go up first. I can get these by myself."
Lin Xiaoyue saw that Zhan Ying had one bag in his left hand and two bags in his right hand. He looked very relaxed and said, "Well, thank you for your hard work!"
As soon as she returned to the ground, Lin Xiaoyue saw Liang Jingyao waiting in the cellar.
"Brother Liang, did you put in a good word with the Queen Mother? Do you want to stay here for lunch?" Lin Xiaoyue dusted off the ashes she had collected in the cellar.
Liang Jingyao smiled and took off the spider web hanging on Lin Xiaoyue's head and said: "I don't want to eat anymore. I came to tell you that I am going back to the city gate. You can be casual here and don't work too hard. I will wait for a few days."
Find a few maids and women to help, and then you don't have to cook."
Lin Xiaoyue nodded and said: "Well, thank you, Brother Liang! By the way, my dad said that he feels that he can go to the ground tomorrow, and Yunyun and I will not be needed to cook the medicine later. Then we will have one less thing to do.
, so Brother Liang, don’t worry!”
Liang Jingyao said happily: "That's good. I will make time to come back tomorrow and bring a bottle of good wine to the wine geek."
Lin Xiaoyue covered her mouth and smiled: "Okay, I will tell dad, he will definitely be very happy!"
Liang Jingyao looked at the sun that was gradually climbing up, reluctantly took Lin Xiaoyue's hand and said, "Then I'll go first, take care of yourself!"
Because Liang Jingyao kept holding Lin Xiaoyue's hand and refused to let go, Lin Xiaoyue walked all the way to the entrance of the waterfall before walking back.
Back in the kitchen, the water in the big iron pot was boiling, and Chen Yunyun was squatting on the ground plucking chicken feathers.
Lin Xiaoyue also found an empty spot and squatted down, "Shall we keep these chicken feathers? They can be used as feather dusters."
Chen Yunyun grabbed a handful of chicken feathers floating on the water, looked at them, and said: "These are hen feathers. Generally, you need rooster feathers! And the feathers on the chicken neck and wings are the best. A chicken feather
How many chickens do you need to kill to dust off about five taels of chicken feathers?"
Lin Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment. As a modern soul, she had no idea that feather dusters were so particular! If she did this, she would have to kill all the roosters in her nest!
"Oh, it's so wasteful! We can use it as long as we want. Anyway, we can dust things." Lin Xiaoyue clicked her tongue and vomited.
Lin Xiaoyue said with a smile: "It's not impossible, it may shed hair easily. However, I heard that the feather dusters in the palace are more beautiful, at least they are selected from hundreds to thousands of roosters."
Is there a very beautiful feather duster in the palace? Lin Xiaoyue searched through the memory of the original owner, but apart from the silks, jewels, and delicacies, she had no impression of the feather duster at all.
It seems that the original owner was once quite favored. Even if the original owner has never seen such things that a eunuch and maid would take, he can understand.
Lin Xiaoyue quickly pulled out the last few tiny chicken feathers, stood up and said: "So, you take out the chicken feathers, wash them and dry them. We will save them first. When we save more, we can make feather dusters or mats."
Chen Yunyun was persuaded by Lin Xiaoyue. She picked up the chicken feathers and put them in another wooden basin, and then poured out the dirty water.
"Okay, I'll take it to the river to wash it. It'll be clean in just a few strokes." Chen Yunyun picked up the wooden basin and prepared to go out.
