Chapter 74 About Instant Noodles
The doctor of Liu Mansion was stunned for a moment: "Young lady, what is this...?"
Wen Jiu said, "Lord Beile will be leaving in the next two days, so I want to prepare these for him in advance, just in case."
Upon hearing this, the Liu family doctor nodded in agreement: "It's no wonder that the young lady has served the prince for so long. After all, the young lady is more attentive."
Wen Jiu smiled and said, "Thank you for troubling the doctor from the Liu Mansion."
This time, Doctor Liu did not refuse. He repeatedly said he dared not, then took the golden beans, said a few polite words and left.
After watching the doctor leave, Wen Jiu lost his appetite. "You guys haven't eaten yet, have you? I haven't touched these things yet. Take them and divide them among you."
"Oh, hawthorn," Wen Jiu suddenly remembered, "Have you brought me the seeds I asked for?"
"Here I am," Shanzha replied, and immediately went to get it. "Girl, where are you going to plant it? I'm afraid it won't survive at this time of year."
Wen Jiu just smiled and said, "I'm just curious and want to take a look." Then he waved at them, "Go ahead, hurry up and eat."
After entering the inner room, Wenjiu brought the clothes sprinkled with medicine and the seeds into the space.
He immediately took the clothes and asked for the book "The Book of Medical Professionals". The old man sniffed it seriously, then sat down with a smile and explained to Wen Jiu that it was exactly the same as what the doctor in Liu Mansion had said.
Wen Jiu felt relieved that the doctor from the Liu Mansion had not lied to her after all.
Next, she put the medical book down and took out the seeds that Hawthorn gave her to look at carefully.
For each hawthorn, I was given four small packets of seeds, one for watermelon, one for cabbage, one for coriander, and one for cucumber.
Although they are all common seeds, I am still very happy to drink them.
Nowadays, when she has some free time, she always stares at the window, imagining that one day she will have her own small space where she can grow flowers, plants, fruits and vegetables.
I didn't expect that it would be realized in my own space so quickly.
She carefully planned a piece of land and prepared to start planting.
The soil is soft, so planting one or two seeds is not a big deal.
When I planted the flowers of the afterlife before, Xiaojin and I usually just dug a hole in the ground with our hands and threw the seeds in.
The flowers of the dead do not require water, so it is very convenient.
But growing fruits and vegetables is not an option as the quantity is large and they need careful care. However, there is not even enough space or tools to do it properly.
"Master, are you really going to grow vegetables in this space? With such fertile land, why don't you consider growing some precious medicinal herbs? They can be exchanged for a lot of silver."
Wenjiu patted its head and said, "Xiaojin, that's great. This is a good idea. However, I'll try growing some vegetables first."
Xiao Jin also rolled his eyes like Wen Jiu. Forget it, it couldn't change its fate of growing vegetables, so it simply walked over and dug a hole in the ground with its little butt sticking out. Since it couldn't resist, it might as well help.
"Don't worry about it for now. I'll find a chance to go out tonight and see if I can get some farm tools. I still have a lot of things to buy. It would be best if I could buy a few more large cabinets and a bed. I should decorate the house properly."
Having said this, Wenjiu couldn't wait to go out, but he didn't know whether the Fourth Master would agree.
He took out the remaining silver and counted it, which should be enough for her to buy more things.
Smaller items could be taken from the kitchen, simply by giving people a small tip. But the things she bought were so large that she was afraid of being noticed. Imagine if a large bed suddenly disappeared—how terrifying would that be?
Thinking this way, she couldn't stay in the space any longer. If the Fourth Master suddenly left the capital, she was afraid she wouldn't have everything ready. She immediately stood up and shouted outside, "Xiaodouzi, go and call Sun Dazhi over. Tell him I need his help with something."
He threw the golden beans to him and said, "Tell Sun Dazhi to bring some rice and flour."
She should make some food now.
Sun Dazhi now regarded Wen Jiuzhi's mission as extremely important. When he heard her calling for help, he came over without stopping with rice and flour.
"Miss, how are you?" Sun Dazhi bowed to Wenjiu, and then seemed to want to say something but hesitated.
Wen Jiu was quite surprised, and followed his instructions and sent all the servants around away.
"If you have something to say, tell me."
Seeing that no one was around, Sun Dazhi knelt down with a plop: "Miss, I'm sorry for you and have failed your trust."
Wen Jiu frowned slightly: "What is it? Tell me first."
Sun Dazhi hung his head. "I secretly took note of the milk tea that the young lady made yesterday. Today, both the wife and the concubine came to me. I was really at a loss, so I sent the milk tea to Jinghao Hall and Ruyi Pavilion."
Wen Jiu raised an eyebrow: "News spreads quickly."
Sun Dazhi suddenly knelt down and took two steps: "Don't worry, young lady, I haven't told anyone about the other snacks. If they are leaked, I will make sure that I will punish you with lightning."
Wen Jiu waved his hand, "Forget it, don't swear such vicious oaths. This matter is not something you and I can control. This milk soup has been seen by so many people, and the Fourth Master is enjoying it so much that it has attracted jealous attention. Fu Jin asked you for it, can you really refuse it?"
Don't worry, I was able to make the milk tea that the Fourth Master liked yesterday, and today I can make other things that the Fourth Master likes too.
What's the point of using other people's snacks? My brain is my own, no one can steal it."
After hearing this, Sun Dazhi nodded repeatedly. "Miss, you're right. I was thinking that even if the wife and the concubine asked for this milk soup, it would be useless, so I gave it to them. I deliberately cooked the milk soup for a shorter time, so I'm afraid it still has the muttony smell of milk. If you like milk, it's fine, but if you don't, I'm afraid you'll be able to taste it."
After hearing this, Wen Jiu looked at Sun Dazhi seriously, and saw a light pink heart on his head. He was quite surprised. He didn't know when Sun Dazhi started to help anxious people with things.
"Don't kneel down now. I know what you mean. Get up now. I'll take you to make a new dessert today."
When Wenjiu saw Ai Xin, he couldn't help but feel a little closer to her. Besides, he was really too busy to take care of her, so he could cultivate this person as his own.
Wenjiu wants to make instant noodles today. It seems difficult to make in terms of appearance, but the principle is actually very simple.
It is nothing more than rolled noodles, cooked by steaming or boiling, and then fried in a pan of oil to set.
Let Sun Dazhi and his two young eunuchs knead the dough, and Wenjiu prepare various seasonings.
Fry some beef paste, seal it up and carry it with you, and you will have meat sauce noodles.
Add a little bit of butter to the hot pot base, and you can cook food on the way, and drink some hot red soup to warm your body.
Finally, make a few dry ingredient packets, add a little salt, pepper powder, and grind the small dried shrimps into powder to mix.
I also made some vegetable dumplings. Boil the vegetables in water, put them between two layers of hot gauze, and place them on the kang to dry slowly.
The group worked furiously until the afternoon and produced more than a hundred pancakes.
Sun Dazhi watched the last of the noodles being put into the frying pan, sighed softly, and finally couldn't help asking Wen Jiu, "How do you eat these things, girl?"
Wen Jiu saw that the others were also confused, so he couldn't help but keep them in suspense: "Once this is out of the pot, I'll show you how to eat it."
