Su Ningjie and Su Ningwen were squatting in the yard practicing calligraphy.
Xiao Xier sat on the threshold of the yard, holding her little face, bored.
"Mother, big brother, where have you been?"
Xiao Xier pounced towards Xiao Lingyu like a wild rabbit, and Su Ningan ran away into the Su family yard.
"Mother went to the bamboo forest. Let me see if you were crying just now."
Xiao Xier raised her little face and blinked, "Mom, look carefully, I'm definitely not crying. I'm not a crybaby."
Xiao Lingyu pulled the little tuft of hair on her head and said with a smile, "Well, Xiao Xi'er is not a crybaby. Let's go in quickly."
"Mom, your bag is so beautiful."
"Mom will make one for you."
"Mrs. Su."
Li Laowu's voice came from behind, "The egg brush is ready, please take a look at the workmanship."
Li Laowu heard about what happened in front of the Su family's courtyard today, and when he saw Xiao Lingyu again, he was more respectful than yesterday.
Xiao Lingyu took it and took a closer look. The bamboo egg brush was comparable to an egg beater.
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, "Uncle Li Wu, the egg brush is very well made. It's exactly what I want."
Seeing Xiao Lingyu's smile, Li Laowu felt that he was very approachable and responded with a gentle smile.
"Mrs. Su, I'll be leaving first. If you need anything else, I'll make it for you as soon as possible."
Xiao Lingyu nodded slightly: "Okay."
Su Ningjie took the egg brush from Xiao Lingyu's hand and looked at it carefully.
"Mother, are you going to use this egg brush to make the food for us tonight?"
"Yes, I guarantee you'll love this dish tonight. Big brother, second brother, go to the kitchen and prepare the ingredients. Third brother, Xiao Xier, go to the backyard and see if the female goat has given birth to lambs."
After giving the order, Xiao Lingyu glanced at Su Xingyi in the wheelchair, returned to the room, slipped into the space, buried the century-old wild ginseng he had dug in the artificial medicinal material planting base, and watered it with spiritual spring water.
She couldn't rashly take the wild ginseng worth four thousand taels to Baoshan Hall to sell. Without a suitable buyer, she wouldn't sell it for the time being.
Xiao Lingyu returned to the kitchen and saw that the rice was already simmering in the pot.
The eldest was dealing with wild rabbits, and the second was killing fish seriously.
It’s great to have a son.
Xiao Lingyu scooped up a small half bowl of lard, heated the lard in another large pot, melted it, and then poured it out and set it aside.
Xiao Lingyu removed the egg whites from two eggs and placed them in a clean, dry large bowl. He then added a little white vinegar, a spoonful of sugar, and a spoonful of melted lard, and stirred thoroughly with an egg brush.
After cleaning the rabbit, Su Ning'an took the bowl and egg brush from Xiao Lingyu and started stirring according to Xiao Lingyu's instructions.
Xiao Lingyu put the remaining oil into the bowl and stirred it several times.
"It's ok, Boss."
Su Ningan looked at a bowl of soft, yellowish white stuff and asked, "Mom, what is this?"
"This is salad dressing, a condiment like ketchup. Mother will make crispy tomatoes for you now."
The two brothers gathered in front of Xiao Lingyu to watch how the crispy tomatoes were made.
Xiao Lingyu washed the tomatoes, removed the stems and cut them into thick slices. He dipped the tomato slices in starch and then immersed them in egg liquid. He then rolled the tomato slices in steamed bun bran and fried them in oil until golden, crispy and soft, then drained the oil and took them out.
Xiao Xier and Su Ningwen smelled the fragrance and ran into the kitchen.
"Mom, what is this food? It looks delicious."
"These are crispy tomatoes. Wait for me to cut them up and put them on a plate. Add some salad dressing and ketchup before you eat. Boss, go dig three potatoes from the vegetable garden, peel them, and cut them into thick strips. I'll make you a meal."
Su Ningan looked at the crispy tomatoes on the plate and swallowed, "Mom, wait until I come back before eating."
"good."
Five minutes later.
Xiao Lingyu cut the fried golden and crispy tomatoes into four small pieces and placed them on two plates, spread salad dressing and ketchup on them and placed them in front of the four brothers and sisters.
"Try it and see if you like it."
The four brothers and sisters couldn't wait any longer and reached out to grab a piece each and put it in their mouths.
Xiao Xier said: "Mother, it's delicious, fragrant, sweet and..."
She didn't know how to describe it, but it was delicious.
Xiao Lingyu said, "It's crispy and juicy, right?"
The four brothers nodded repeatedly, then in unison stretched out their little hands and took a piece of crispy tomato and stuffed it into their mouths.
"Now, Mommy will fry some potato chips for you. They are delicious with ketchup."
Then Xiao Lingyu fried a plate of potato chips for the children and started to prepare the main course.
Thinking about how tomatoes can be made into so many delicious dishes, Su Ningjie asked, "Mom, can peppers only be used to stir-fry meat?"
Xiao Lingyu said, "Green peppers can be stir-fried with a variety of vegetables, and chili peppers can be made into chili sauce. It goes really well with rice. Later, I'll pick a large basin of chili peppers to make garlic chili sauce for you. Tomorrow, when the officials come to measure the mountain, I'll use the peppers and tomatoes to earn you some money."
Su Ningjie was delighted, "Mom, take me with you. I will be responsible for collecting the money."
"Mother, I'm here too, so you don't have to worry about not being able to carry the copper coins you collected."
Su Ning'an thought about the sack of copper coins he received on the day of slaughtering the pig, which his second brother couldn't even hold.
Su Ningjie added: "With Big Brother here, no one will come and steal the money."
"Yes, mother, I can protect you."
Xiao Xier said: "Mother, there is me, I can... I can..."
Xiao Xier didn't know what she could do, but she just wanted to follow.
Su Ningwen put down his chopsticks and scratched Xiao Lingyu's palm, indicating that he wanted to go too.
All his brothers and sisters are going, and he can't be left behind.
