A top blogger was transmigrated into a country girl's body. Before she could even open her eyes, she was about to be dressed in burial clothes for a ghost marriage. Her younger brother just dro...
In less than an hour, Gu Lili had finished making the steamed buns.
These oysters paired with chives are incredibly fresh and delicious.
With the addition of some seasonings that Gu Lili secretly put in, the taste was absolutely amazing.
There's another way to eat oysters, which is oyster omelet, and it's delicious too. I'll definitely try it next time.
Oysters can be eaten raw, but Gu Lili didn't like the texture, so she didn't try it.
Since there was no steamer, Gu Lili made pan-fried buns, which were also smaller than the usual large buns.
First, add lard to the pan, then put the buns into the pan and slowly fry them over low heat until the bottom is golden brown.
Take some more flour, add it to a bowl of water to dissolve it, make a very thin flour water mixture, and pour it into a pot.
The aroma wafted out the moment the pot lid was opened, and Gu Lili couldn't help but swallow.
"Huanhuan, the fire can be a little bigger now!" Gu Lili said with a smile.
Gu Huanhuan nodded and quickly added some firewood to the stove. Gu Lili put the lid on the pot, and then they could wait to eat.
A short while later, a sizzling sound came from the pot. Gu Lili opened the lid and, sure enough, all the water inside had evaporated.
Gu Lili took the spatula and scooped up the rice crust, which emitted an enticing golden color.
Gu Lili scooped all the buns into a large bowl and started making the next batch.
After three batches of steamed buns were cooked, Gu Lili checked the sky and instructed her younger siblings to deliver the buns.
"Here, Erniu, take these to the uncles who are building houses. Sigou, take a few to Grandma Yang. Huanhuan, take a few to your sister Dahua's house." Gu Lili handed the divided buns to the group.
The group obediently took the steamed buns from Gu Lili's hands and walked outside.
Once outside, Gu Erniu handed the steamed buns he was holding to Gu Huanhuan.
"Huanhuan, I just hit my sister on the head and it hurts so much! Why don't you go and give it to the uncles and aunts? I'll take it to Aunt Zhang's house!" Gu Erniu said to Gu Huanhuan with a smile.
Without any suspicion, Gu Huanhuan took the bowl from Gu Erniu and then handed her own bowl to him.
Gu Erniu took the bowl from Gu Huanhuan's hand, his smile almost reaching his ears.
Completely unaware that Gu Lili had seen everything, they were oblivious.
Gu Lili shook her head and walked towards Grandpa Village Head's house with the bowl in her hand.
When they arrived at the village head's house, Master Yuan was chatting with the village head, while the village head's grandmother and daughter-in-law were cooking inside.
"Lili, what brings you here?" Grandpa Village Head asked with a smile when he saw Gu Lili arrive.
Gu Lili picked up the bowl in her hand and shook it, saying, "Grandpa Village Head, we found some delicious food by the sea today, so we brought it over for you to try."
Actually, when Gu Lili came in, she brought with her a delicious aroma of food.
The village head had already noticed the buns in Gu Lili's bowl, but he was too embarrassed to ask directly.
Looking at the steamed buns in Gu Lili's hand, Master Yuan suddenly felt a surge of appetite.
Having eaten quite a few good things in the capital, the aroma of the steamed buns in Gu Lili's hand still made my mouth water uncontrollably.
"Hey! You can keep them for yourselves, why send them here!" The village headman smiled and took the buns from Gu Lili's hands.
After spending a lot of time with Gu Lili, I also learned about her temperament.
No matter how much you refuse, she will find a way to make you accept.
So, let's come early.
Gu Lili smiled and said, "We made a lot, so we brought it out for you to try. You take such good care of us, and I don't know how to repay you, so I can only make some food for you to try!"
Master Yuan looked at Gu Lili with affection. Such a grateful child, the Emperor should reward her handsomely.
Gu Lili continued, "Master Yuan, I've come today to ask you for a favor."
Master Yuan asked curiously, "Oh, tell me about it, and I'll see if I can help you."
Master Yuan was somewhat curious; he had just returned, so how could he possibly help her?
Gu Lili didn't hesitate and said with a smile, "I would like to ask Master Yuan to help me choose a name for my second and fourth brothers."
Master Yuan and Grandpa Village Head exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.
He and the village head had just been talking about this topic.
And I wonder what Gu Lili's parents were thinking, giving their son such a name.
Unexpectedly, Gu Lili came knocking on my door right afterward.
Indeed, one should not talk about others behind their backs.
Master Yuan pondered for a moment, then said, "What do you think about naming Erniu Gu Yun Chu and Si Gou Gu Yan Yu?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Lili immediately praised it highly.
"Master Yuan, this name is indeed excellent!"
As expected of the Master, he was able to come up with such a beautiful name.
Gu Lili had originally planned to name the child herself, but after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't come up with a name.
Master Yuan quickly came up with the names for the two men.
Yun Chu implies intelligence, amiability, and honesty.
Yan Yu implies intelligence and the ability to achieve great things.
These are all heartfelt wishes for Gu Erniu and Gu Sigou.
Master Yuan smiled and stroked his beard as he listened to Gu Lili's praise, clearly pleased with the two names he had chosen.
After delivering the gifts and obtaining names for her two younger brothers, Gu Lili happily went home.
When they got home, the other three had already returned.
Gu Lili then asked them to set out their bowls and eat. Gu Lili took some sea mussels and cooked them.
Then I made a chili oil and garlic sauce to eat with mussels.
It was the first time for Gu Erniu and the other two to eat mussels and oysters, and they thought they were delicious.
Especially with Gu Lili's seasoning, the four of them finished off the food on the table in no time.
After finishing their meal, Gu Lili led the group to pry open the remaining oysters.
Dry them in the sun; they'll be great for cooking later.
"Erniu, Sigou, I just asked Master Yuan to give you two new names. Erniu, your name is Yun Chu, and Sigou, your name is Yan Yu. What do you think?" Gu Lili asked Gu Erniu and Sigou while she was working.
The two women reacted very differently to what Gu Lili said.
Gu Erniu was delighted, while Gu Sigou was somewhat unhappy.
Gu Sigou thought his name sounded nice, and it was given to him by his mother, so he didn't really want to change it.
Although some friends outside might deliberately call him a dog, he still thinks his name sounds nice.
Gu Erniu was older and had a sense of shame.
Although the name was chosen by Fu Qu, he still wanted a better-sounding name.
Although Gu Sigou was not very happy, he still managed to refute her.
