"Let's go to Zhuangzi." Si Haochen glanced at Mingruo, who was immersed in medical books and couldn't help himself. Along the way, in addition to eating and sleeping, he just read. Not only did he read, he also took notes seriously. Mingruo's enthusiasm for reading will, if things go on like this,
You should be able to get top marks in the exam.
This village encircles half of the mountain, and the back mountain is a tea garden. In front is a large field, where farmers are cultivating winter wheat. There are rows of houses on the front mountain, and there is also a maple forest.
Now is the season of maple viewing - the houses with white walls and black tiles are hidden in the fiery red maple forest, which has a unique charm.
The carriage clattered along the stone road to the mountainside and stopped in front of a courtyard: "Master, we're here."
"Get off the car." Si Haochen reminded Mingruo again.
"Huh?" Mingruo put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and looked at Si Haochen in confusion.
"Well, what? I just read the book but not the road. I don't know if I sold you." Si Haochen rolled his eyes at Mingruo and got out of the carriage.
Mingruo put the book away and hurried to follow. When he got off the car, Mingruo stretched out his hand and just happened to hold the hand handed over by his boss Haochen. They had formed a habit along the way and the two had a tacit understanding.
This courtyard is very unique. There is a small pond at the entrance. You have to go around from the verandahs on both sides to the main house. There is a big red maple tree in front of the main house. The maple leaves fall in the pond and the koi carp play among the maple leaves. It is very interesting.
The courtyard is very beautifully decorated. Mingruo looked around and realized that if he had a mobile phone, he could take pictures of any corner and use it as wallpaper.
A gust of wind blew by, and the maple leaves fell. Mingruo shivered. Along the way back, the weather was getting colder and colder.
"Come in, it's windy outside." Si Haochen led Mingruo into the main room.
There is something interesting about this room. The bedroom, study, and living room are not completely separated. They are only separated by screens or bead curtains, but it is not obvious. It is a bit like a modern holiday cabin.
"This house is really unique." Ming Ruo couldn't help but praise.
"We can come here often if you like." Si Haochen sat down, "There is a warm spring here, and fresh vegetables can grow in winter."
"Can I go and have a look?" Mingruo didn't expect that ancient people were so smart and actually used geothermal heat for greenhouse cultivation.
"Looking at the food?" Si Haochen didn't understand what was so good about the food.
"Yeah." Mingruo nodded quickly.
"..." Si Haochen knew that vegetables were grown on Zhuangzi, but he had never been to the specific location.
Si Haochen walked forward with his hands behind his back, and Mingruo quickly followed. Shishi Shi and Ah Yi had just moved in with their luggage: "Master, where are you going?"
"Looking at the food." Si Haochen cherished his words like gold.
"Ah... we just arrived, I'm afraid the dishes haven't been cooked yet." Ah Yi replied.
"Raw." Si Haochen added, realizing that his secret guard was as stupid as a pig.
"..." Ah Yi and Fifteen both looked confused.
"Ahem, I want to see the vegetables raised in Nuanquan." Seeing the disgust on Si Haochen's face, Mingruo felt that it was pitiful to be his subordinate.
"I know where it is." Fifteen directly stacked the boxes he was carrying on top of Ah Yi's and ran ahead to lead the way.
Not far from the kitchen, there are three open rooms used for growing vegetables. As soon as you enter, you feel very warm. The roof is covered with open tiles, allowing light to pass through during the day. Mingruo looks at the green vegetables of various colors and fresh cucumbers, picking them
If you are very interested, go ahead and get started.
Shi Fifteen quickly found the bamboo basket. Seeing that his master was always following his wife, he handed the bamboo basket over. Si Haochen was very relieved in his heart. Shi Fifteen was indeed more discerning than Ah Yi.
Mingruo had a handful of cabbage in her left hand and a handful of water spinach in her right hand. When she was envious of Brother Squidward, Si Haochen took it and put it in the bamboo basket at the right time. Mingruo raised his head and looked at Si Haochen with a smile on his face. It seemed that Prince Bingshan
It's still a bit smoky.
Picking makes people happy. Mingruo smiled and said to Si Haochen, "I'll make something delicious for you in a while."
"Okay." Si Haochen nodded.
"Fifteen, ask the kitchen to stew a pot of chicken soup." Mingruo ordered.
"Yes." Fifteen hurried to the kitchen to make arrangements.
After Ming Ruo picked the vegetables, she went to the kitchen and directed the cook to wash the vegetables, cut the vegetables and cut the meat.
Si Haochen was invited to the dining room, and saw that the middle of the large round table was empty, and the surroundings were full of dishes. But these dishes... are you sure they can be eaten? Various green vegetables - raw, meat slices - raw, fish fillets -
Raw, the dried mushrooms brought back from southern Yunnan, although they have been soaked in water, they are still raw...
Mingruo put the fish balls and crispy meat made by himself on the table. Si Haochen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and finally saw the cooked food. Ah Yi brought a small red clay stove and placed it in the middle of the table, and placed fifteen casseroles filled with chicken soup.
onto the fire.
"It's ready to eat after the pot boils." Mingruo placed the prepared dipping dishes in front of Si Haochen, "This is the sesame oil dish, and this is the sesame sauce dish. Boil the vegetables and meat and eat them with the sauce."
Mingruo put the mushrooms into the pot: "This needs to be cooked for a while to taste better."
Mingruo rinsed the meat slices and put them on Si Haochen's plate: "Try it."
Looking at the pot of light chicken soup, Si Haochen guessed that the meat slices would not be too delicious. Unexpectedly, the meat slices were tender and fragrant, and it was very delicious when paired with the sauce. Mingruo also blanched the green vegetables and gave them to him, which was fragrant and slightly sweet.
It's also delicious. The main thing is that eating it while hot is very warm and novel.
"What's this called?" Si Haochen didn't know how Mingruo had so many novel ideas in his head. In the past, he only used this small stove to boil water and make tea.
"Chicken soup hot pot." Although the red oil spicy hot pot has a soul, as a person with a handicap, I am very happy to use other people's chicken soup to make hot pot.
"It's very warm to eat in winter." Si Haochen picked up the fish fillets and began to boil them, "Is it cooked?"
"Well, fish fillets are easy to cook."
Si Haochen picked up the fish fillet and gave it to Mingruo: "Boil the shrimp next time."
"Shrimps can be made into shrimp paste, which is also delicious." Mingruo suddenly felt that Si Haochen had a talent for gourmet food.
"Yeah." He knew that this girl likes to eat shrimp.
After finishing the hot pot, they felt warm all over. They sat side by side in front of the window and watched the moon reflected in the pond, shining brightly.
"Do you like the imperial capital?" Mingruo supported his chin with his hand.
"It's hard to say whether you like it or not."
"Then where do you like? Your fiefdom or the northwest?" Mingruo was a little curious.
"In my opinion, it's the same everywhere." No matter where he is, there are many things waiting for him to do, and there isn't much difference. "You don't like the imperial capital."
Si Haochen used a declarative sentence, Mingruo really didn't like the imperial capital: "Yeah."
"Why?"
"Because... when people sit at home, the pot comes from the sky." Mingruo is actually very afraid of trouble.
"Haha." What she said was right. Danxu was eager to find trouble every day.
"Don't you think it's troublesome to be in the emperor?" Mingruo was curious.
"Just get used to it." Si Haochen felt that it was okay for Dan Xu to toss every now and then. If he stopped and stopped tossing, he would be on guard instead, which meant that he was planning something big.
