Yan Xingxuan naturally believed in Xiao Nianzhi's ability, and the materials needed to make the thermometer were not particularly complicated.
Of course, the method used for firing glass will definitely need to be improved in the future. Now we just need something that can simply measure temperature and prove the feasibility of this thing.
After thinking about it, Yan Xingxuan looked at the sky: "Tomorrow we will deal with the thermometer first. Once we have this figured out, we can then burn the glass."
It was getting late, and Xiao Nianzhi really had to go cook.
All the ingredients have been prepared, and there are also Yan Changxia, a great cook, Yan Xingxuan, a handy worker, and Wei Zhiqiu, a versatile worker. Xiao Nianzhi can cook very quickly.
When the fish sticks are fried, the whole kiln is filled with the aroma of oil and a faint fish aroma.
The fish sticks are well processed and have no fishy smell. After being fried, there is only a faint fragrance left, which quietly appeals to people's sense of gourmet food.
There are other people here at the official kiln. Smelling this smell and looking at the rice in his bowl, I feel a little complicated for a while.
This strong aroma slowly dissipated as the fried fish fingers were put on the plate.
But soon, the aroma of steamed duck fermented with rice wine wafted out.
There is a strong fragrance in the fragrance, and there is a vague sweetness in the fragrance. The two fragrances are like two lines that want to be parallel and intertwined. You are chasing me, and no one wants to surrender first.
Struggle, constantly changing its trajectory.
As they chased, the strong fragrance continued to float out.
This fragrance is sometimes mellow and sometimes sweet. Even those who don't like sweets will find it difficult to resist this alluring smell.
"Why does it smell so good?"
"Whose food is it?"
"I see everyone is cooking. Could it be from over there?"
"Is it His Highness and the others?"
"I heard that the Lord of Ning'an Township who came with His Highness was originally the cook of the Imperial College."
"I've seen that cook a lot, but I've never smelled something so fragrant!"
……
The endless aroma slowly floats out with the rising steam.
To ensure that the duck meat is flavorful and delicious, this dish needs to be steamed for more than half an hour.
And this strong fragrance has already started to float from the time when the incense stick was used.
After that, it will be almost half an hour more.
Wei Zhiqiu didn't know what happened to the others, but she knew that if she continued to smell it, she might become a pervert!
There is nothing to do in the kitchen for the time being. Yan Xingxuan is busy and does not need her help at all.
In the end, Wei Zhiqiu couldn't stand the fragrance anymore, so he turned around and went out. After finding an open space, he took out his soft sword from his waist and started swinging it!
Her swordsmanship is excellent, and she has learned it from her father since she was a child. Although not every sword can bring out a sword spirit, they all have a strong sharpness.
It can be seen that this is not just a display, but a real effort!
Her clattering swing of the sword startled everyone who had originally thought of coming out to watch and smell the smell carefully.
Some are timid and just retract their heads and hug their bowls honestly. Don’t worry about whether it tastes good or not. Eat first and then talk about it.
Some brave ones even stretched their necks to watch.
They also knew Wei Zhiqiu's identity, the daughter of Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess.
Her Royal Highness the Princess is very famous in the capital.
Well, there are a lot of love affairs.
In their daily lives, they naturally don’t dare to talk about these things easily.
How dare they talk nonsense about people in the royal family?
However, sometimes, I will make a mental calculation, and then sigh: Why don't I have such a good life? Being attracted by Her Highness the Princess, regardless of whether it will work out in the end, they don't dare to hope for it.
However, the breakup fee for the eldest princess must be considerable, right?
Well, they are just greedy for money!
Wei Zhiqiu went out to practice swordplay, and Yan Xingxuan swallowed saliva frequently, but he liked to smell it.
Moreover, this is a duck he has raised for more than half a year. He has killed a few before, but the taste is not good and the feeling is a bit off.
It's probably because I'm still under one month old, so the meat doesn't even taste that strong.
Now, we don’t care whether it tastes good when it is one month old, but just by smelling this smell, Yan Xingxuan will know whether it tastes good or not has nothing to do with how good it tastes when it is one month old.
As long as it’s fragrant, the taste can be ignored!
At this time, Yan Changxia was quietly chewing fish sticks and lighting a fire.
There was no way, she was doing manual labor, and her sister loved her so much that she specially gave her one first.
Dip in the sweet noodle sauce prepared by Xiao Nianzhi, the fish sticks are charred on the outside and tender on the inside. The more you eat, the better.
Just one piece...
It only takes a few breaths to swallow it.
But Yan Changxia didn't want to give it up. She chewed it slowly and felt it carefully.
Just so that she could swallow it later and have something to reminisce about.
Yan Xingxuan's attention now is on the steamed duck with fermented wine. Although the sweet-scented osmanthus fish sticks are equally tempting, he can't bear it!
You can't act like a greedy cat in front of your sweetheart, right?
Although, he originally had no image to speak of.
But the relationship between him and Xiao Nianzhi in the past half month has brought him much closer. Yan Xingxuan also vaguely felt Xiao Nianzhi's response to his closeness.
This made Yan Xingxuan very excited and very happy.
Therefore, he wants to maintain his image, even if it is only broken in the end!
While steaming the duck, Xiao Nianzhi made a few stir-fry dishes.
After entering late autumn, the variety of dishes is actually not very rich. Xiao Nianzhi is already thinking about the out-of-season greenhouse.
Of course, plastic cannot be plastic.
Not to mention that plastic needs to extract oil and then process it, there are too many things involved.
Shan said, what should we do about the pollution problem after plastics are researched?
However, if plastic is not enough, you can consider glass.
You can also plant in glass greenhouses, but the methods you need to pay attention to are different.
But this is something for later, right now...
Eat first.
Only when you are full can you have the energy to think about other things.
Small stir-fries are quick, stir-fry meat with dried beans, roast tofu...
Finally, make winter melon and shrimp skin soup.
The dried shrimp skin will make the winter melon soup taste more delicious.
After the soup was cooked, the duck, which had been steamed for nearly an hour, was finally ready and could be taken out of the cage.
When the lid of the pot was taken away, the strong aroma poured out crazily from inside. At that moment, the aroma in the entire kitchen reached its peak.
Of course, this strong fragrance soon spread out, tempting more people.
Wei Zhiqiu originally wanted to practice the pose for a while, but she heard Xiao Nianzhi shout: "It's time to eat."
Wei Zhiqiu quickly sheathed her sword, but within two breaths, the soft sword had returned to her waist. She straightened her clothes and smelled it again.
Fortunately, it was cold today, and after practicing for so long, there was only a thin layer of sweat on the body. There was no strange smell for the time being, so Wei Zhiqiu walked back with peace of mind.
