Chapter 18 Old Doctor Zhang, Wolfberry and Hare

Lin Zhu felt that Dr. Zhang had no ill intentions towards her, so she took out the wolfberries from the kitchen, "I saw these small fruits on the mountain. They were red and tasted sweet, so I picked some and brought them back."

Suddenly I remembered that there was a rabbit outside the house, "There is another rabbit."

"Can you still catch a rabbit?" This surprised Dr. Zhang. Even an adult might not be able to catch a rabbit with bare hands, let alone an eight-year-old girl like her? "Where is it? Let me see." "Actually, it's not me.

"Caught it," Lin Zhu pointed at Heidou'er playing on the ground, "When it was playing in the forest, it saw a rabbit and kept chasing it. The rabbit was so scared that it kept running and hit a tree."

"Haha, it seems that you are really lucky today." Dr. Zhang picked up a wolfberry and looked at it. "Not only did I pick wolfberry, but I also picked up a rabbit." He put the wolfberry in his mouth and tasted it.

, "These wolfberries you picked are also medicinal materials, and they are of very good quality. If they are dried properly, they can be sold."

"You said this fruit is called wolfberry, but I always called it red fruit. Haha, I thought it was a wild fruit. It's good to pick as snacks. It turns out it can be sold." Lin Zhu pretended not to know the goods. "Fortunately, you have a discerning eye.

You can recognize pearls and recognize these fruits." With the explanation from Dr. Zhang, she could sell these wolfberries openly. But she had to ask him for advice on some things. "I just don't know how to dry these wolfberries. It's convenient for you.

Tell me?" As the art of processing medicinal materials, ordinary people are not willing to teach it to outsiders. Although Lin Zhu knows these wolfberries, it should be enough to lay them flat to dry, but it is better to be told the specific method than to find out by yourself.

.

"It's not impossible to tell me, and I can help you sell it, but how are you going to thank me?" Dr. Zhang looked at Lin Zhu with a smile in his eyes.

Under the gaze of Dr. Zhang, Lin Zhu was a little nervous, "I don't know what kind of thank you you need. Now I don't have anything to offer. I got your care a few days ago. If I can do it,

Just ask."

"Haha, can I really tell you to do this?" Old Doctor Zhang paused, thought for a while and then said: "Well, I don't have any other hobbies, I am only interested in eating. I see that you also got a rabbit today.

Would you like to eat with me?" "Can you just cook some food? This is a bit too easy, or do you have other instructions?" Lin Zhu did not expect that it would be so simple to get help from Dr. Zhang.

"Do you think I can open my mouth like a lion? Haha, it's okay to tell you how to dry wolfberry berries. But I saw you got a rabbit today and I want to have a taste of it. How about it? I won't be reluctant to part with it, right?" It looks like Zhang

The old doctor still had the temperament of an old naughty boy. Lin Zhu relaxed. After all, he told him a way to make money. He just wanted to try something new and it was very easy to be satisfied. "Thanks to you, I know a way to make money. I just do some

I feel sorry for you about eating, so how can you be reluctant to part with it?"

Lin Zhu asked Old Doctor Zhang to take a rest in the house while she went outside to deal with the rabbit. She took a knife out of the kitchen. Lin Zhu was still a little embarrassed about the rabbit. After all, she had never killed a rabbit before, although the one in front of her had already been killed.

She was dead, but she still didn't know how to start. Just when she was in a dilemma and gesticulating with the knife, she was seen by Dr. Zhang who came out of the house. "What's wrong?" "I have never killed a rabbit." Dr. Zhang looked at it.

Lin Zhu showed him an ugly smile, and his pitiful voice was very funny. "Well, you come home with me, and I'll have someone pick up the rabbit. By the way, tell them that I'm with you today."

Eat here.”

As long as Lin Zhu was not allowed to do it herself, she had no objection. So she carried the rabbit and followed Old Doctor Zhang out the door.

I met several villagers along the way, but no one was familiar with Dr. Zhang. They only knew that he had just moved here and opened a medical clinic in the village. However, people in the village generally would not go to the doctor easily, and some

The tolerance of minor illnesses and pains has passed, and villagers who work in the fields all day rarely get sick. Therefore, everyone just looked at the two people who walked together curiously and did not come forward to say hello. Lin

Zhu didn't know these people, so he naturally wouldn't take the initiative to come forward. However, Old Doctor Zhang was leisurely walking on the road. He didn't feel any displeasure at other people's curiosity. Instead, he walked forward with a smile. Although Lin Zhu thought that Old Doctor Zhang

He should have a good family background and a high status, but I didn't expect him to be so approachable.

Just as Lin Zhu was wondering where this old doctor Zhang came from, a familiar voice sounded in his ears. "Doctor Zhang, I didn't expect to see you here. You are going to collect medicine again." It turned out to be the village chief.

After Lin Changqing and Lin Zhu saw the person coming, they were about to say hello first. When they discovered that Lin Zhu's Lin Changqing was even more curious about the two of them walking together. "Xiao Zhu, you are here too. Do you know Doctor Zhang?"

"It's the village chief. I went to the mountain to collect some medicine. When I was thirsty, I asked for a drink of water from her. Just when she got a rabbit, I shamelessly wanted to try it from her." Looking at old doctor Zhang,

As if he knew the village chief well, Lin Zhu did not hide anything, "Uncle Lin, I fell ill a few days ago and was cured by Doctor Zhang. I was lucky enough to pick up a rabbit on the mountain today. Please give it a try, Doctor Zhang."

taste."

"Xiao Zhu's craftsmanship is very good, Doctor Zhang is very lucky." Lin Changqing was deeply impressed by Lin Zhu's kitchen skills. "Really? It seems that the village chief has tasted it, and it seems that I am also very lucky." From Lin Zhu

Asking him for peppercorns and star anise, Dr. Zhang guessed that Lin Zhu knew some kitchen skills. Unexpectedly, Lin Changqing not only ate them but also highly praised her.

"In that case, why not invite the village chief to come with us?" Dr. Zhang asked Lin Zhu's opinion. Seeing her nodding, he said to the village chief: "I just happen to have a jar of good wine there. The village chief also comes to taste it."

"Doctor Zhang's wine must be extraordinary, but I would be disrespectful to reject it."

Lin Changqing happily agreed to go together. After asking why Lin Zhu came, he took the initiative to take care of the rabbits. Fearing that Lin Zhu would not be able to handle it alone, he asked her to call Aunt Li over because she was from the same group.

The old doctor was with us, so Ruyu was not allowed to come over.

So Dr. Zhang and the village chief Lin Changqing went to get the wine, while Aunt Li and Lin Zhu went home to prepare.

On the way back, Aunt Li also asked how Lin Zhu met Dr. Zhang. Lin Zhu told the truth. By the way, she also asked Aunt Li if she knew where Dr. Zhang was from. Aunt Li only knew that Dr. Zhang came from a big place.

, she didn’t know the specific origin. For this reason, the village chief Lin Changqing specially told them to treat Dr. Zhang well and not to be rude, but said nothing else. This further shows that Dr. Zhang has an extraordinary origin.

When Lin Zhu and Aunt Li returned home, they originally wanted to wait for the village chief to come over before cleaning up the rabbit, but they didn't expect that Aunt Li could do it. She washed and skinned the rabbit in three strokes, and even found the rabbit skin.

Someone helped to do it. This saved Lin Zhu a lot of trouble.

Because the materials were limited, Lin Zhu decided to cook the rabbit by stewing it. He first cut it into pieces, soaked it in water for a period of time to soak out the blood in the meat, then took it out and drained it for later use. He also picked it from the vegetable patch in the front yard.

I bought some green onions and washed them and cut them into sections for later use. There were soy sauce, vinegar, salt, sugar, etc. in the kitchen, as well as pepper, star anise, ginger, etc. Lin Zhu took out all of them and prepared them.

Aunt Li, who is also in charge of the kitchen at home, was secretly surprised when she saw so many things prepared by Lin Zhu. No wonder the ribs she cooked last time were so delicious. Just looking at these ingredients, she knew that a lot of effort had been put into them.

After all, Wang came from everyone and taught Lin Zhu such superb skills. Aunt Li thought that Lin Zhu learned it from Wang. Looking at Aunt Li, Lin Zhu could guess what she was thinking.

, in her opinion, this is the best. With the reasons that Aunt Li came up with, she no longer has to worry about making excuses to explain where she learned her cooking skills.

Because there really weren’t any vegetables at home, Aunt Li took the initiative to mention that she had grown some beans, eggplants, cucumbers, etc. Lin Zhu asked Aunt Li to pick some back and prepare to make another stir-fried beans, a braised eggplant, and a cold one.

Cucumbers and radishes at home are enough to make a soup. This is the limit of what Lin Zhu can prepare. Rabbit meat and eggs are not suitable for eating together, so when Aunt Li suggested making a fried egg like last time, she declined politely.

.

After a while, Dr. Zhang and the village chief Lin Changqing also came over. The village chief also carried a small jar of wine in his hand. Lin Zhu came forward and asked for some, about one or two. When braised rabbit meat, adding some white wine can remove the

The fishy smell of rabbit meat also makes it taste better.

Lin Zhu first boiled a pot of water, put the soaked and drained rabbit meat in and blanched it, removed the dirt and impurities, took it out and drained it. After washing the pot, poured in the water, and put the rabbit meat in

Go in and put onion, ginger, pepper, star anise and various seasonings into the pot, add the wine you just brought over, and then simmer in the pot for half an hour. In order to make the rabbit meat more delicious, Lin Zhu specially added

Got some sugar.

Because it takes a long time to cook, the rabbit meat is particularly crispy. After cooking, it is served out. The remaining dishes are not particularly labor-intensive, so they are served in a short time. The four dishes and one soup are fragrant and tempting.

Because it was inconvenient to eat at the same table as Doctor Zhang and the village chief, Lin Zhu kept one portion of each dish.

When Dr. Zhang saw the dishes on the table, he said to Lin Changqing very happily: "It seems that you are right, Xiaozhu's craftsmanship is indeed very good. Come on, you can also try my wine. You will definitely come back with a good time today."

The two of them exchanged cups, going back and forth, and had a great time eating. After Lin Zhu and Aunt Li cleaned up the kitchen, they also had lunch.
