Chen Ningzhu laughed and perfunctorily said a few words to the little guy, then continued to introduce,
“It can be eaten in many ways.”
"Sugar garlic, Laba garlic, pepper and salt garlic, barbecue garlic, there are so many ways to prepare them, and each one is delicious."
"Today, I will teach you how to make a few jars of pickled garlic to eat in the winter."
Everyone looked polite and declined.
But he still obeyed and went into the house to bring out a stool, a clean basket, a wooden basin, etc.
Shen Ningzhu shook her head and said no more.
Let them peel the garlic first, leaving only a thin layer of skin, then add enough water to the wooden basin, add a few spoonfuls of salt, and stir evenly.
Put the peeled garlic into a wooden basin and soak it for at least two hours.
The pickled garlic made in this way will not stink or be spicy. The water in the basin must cover the garlic.
Chen Ningzhu explained while peeling garlic.
The two little dumplings each sat on a small stool, peeling the fruits happily and seriously, as if they were playing some interesting game.
Jiang Xuanyan stood there like a log, his brows furrowed tightly.
He was secretly annoyed in his heart. This woman really had no heart at all. She was polite to him when she went out, but when she came back she was like blind and couldn't see him at all.
Really throw it away after use.
Just now he took the initiative to talk to me and said that I only needed to give instructions for these things and leave the rest to the servants. Why should I do it myself?
The woman just said lightly,
"Xiaoyi once said that winter is the hardest for the poor, and pickled vegetables are the most affordable food. So when she was little, she would help the adults pickle various winter vegetables every year."
"Among them, pickled garlic is her favorite pickled vegetable."
"After I tasted her pickled garlic, I loved it immediately. From then on, every year at this time, she would take me with her to buy the freshest garlic and make a few jars of pickled garlic to eat whenever she wanted."
Peony beside her was a little puzzled.
"From what Madam said, pickling sugar garlic requires a lot of sugar. A family that can afford such luxury can't be considered poor, right?"
Chen Ningzhu choked.
I suddenly remembered that sugar was a precious commodity in that era. Ordinary people could not afford to drink a few bowls of sugar water a year, let alone use it to pickle vegetables.
Suddenly, the subject was changed awkwardly.
Strength lies in numbers. Soon, all the garlic heads were peeled and soaked in salt water.
It was just past noon, and the sun was so strong that people couldn't open their eyes. The light felt warm on their bodies.
Fuling brought a washbasin with clean warm water in it, and a clean, pure white cotton towel covered one side of the basin.
The two men helped Shen Ningzhu clean her hands, and then evenly applied care ointment on her slender fingers before gently withdrawing.
Seeing that she had nothing to do, Chen Ningzhu prepared to go back to the house for a nap. Jiang Xuanyan vs. Chen Ningzhu picture These days, she was worried about Liu Zhiyi and hadn't slept well for several nights.
Although she heard Song Hanchuan say that Xiaoyi was fine and knew that he had gone to pick Xiaoyi up, she still couldn't feel at ease until she saw that person appear in front of her safely.
Xiaoyi is her only relative in this world.
If it weren't for her, Shen Ningzhu couldn't imagine how she would survive alone in this strange era.
Fortunately, God blesses Xiaoyi and he is safe and sound.
The two children chattered and wanted to sleep with her, but Jiang Xuanyan carried them out of the house one by one.
"Qingfeng——"
"I'm here."
"Take the person away from me. Don't let them come in and disturb Zhuzhu until she wakes up. Do you understand?"
Qing Feng's face froze, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. He thought, this man, how possessive is he? He's full of conspiracies and schemes, and he's even targeting his own child. Is he still human?
It's simply inhuman!
However, he only dared to mutter these words in his heart. Not only did he not dare to say a word in front of the other person, he even responded with a very flattering "yes".
Then he wanted to pick up the children and run out without stopping, but at this time, the two little kids refused to do it.
They all put their hands on their hips and glared at Jiang Xuanyan with anger. They were not afraid of his cold face at all. They also kept a stern face and shouted at him.
"Why? This is my mother. Why can't we sleep in the same bed with our own mother?"
Jiang Xuanyan glanced at the two of them coldly, his tone was light and without a trace of emotion, but if you listened carefully, there seemed to be a sense of pride and pride in his tone.
"Because I'm your father."
"It's only natural for a son to listen to his father."
The two kids were furious, but children lacked vocabulary and could not think of any words to refute each other. If they obeyed and left, they would feel really unwilling.
They are just over three years old and are at the age when they cling to their mother.
But the homework Song Hanchuan assigned to them was too heavy, and they had to live in the palace every day, so they had very little time to see Chen Ningzhu every month.
Today, I finally came back, and naturally I don’t want to miss the opportunity to get close to my mother.
So, the two of them looked at each other, rolled their eyes at the same time, and threw themselves happily onto the bed.
As long as they run fast, get into bed and hug their mother's waist tightly, and never get out of bed, Jiang Xuanyan will not be able to do anything to them.
At first, the actions of the two did make Jiang Xuanyan stunned for a moment.
Because he was completely focused on Shen Ningzhu, he knew very little about the two children. He didn't know their temperaments, so naturally he couldn't predict their next moves.
Just when the goal was about to be achieved, at the last moment, the small body was picked up by a long arm.
The chubby little boy looked confused, his feet had already left the ground, and it was not until he was trapped under his armpits that he came to his senses and realized what was going on.
Suddenly, his face was filled with disbelief, his face flushed with anger, and he yelled and cursed.
"Qingfeng, you actually helped outsiders, you traitor."
"Mmmmm, Qingfeng is bad."
The tall young man chuckled and said with some guilt, "Your Highness, Crown Prince, please calm down. Your Highness, Princess, please calm down. I am doing this for your own good. After all, when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head, don't you agree?"
Jinxiu Huanian and the other two regretted it deeply. No wonder their mother said that if you are unfaithful once, you will never be trusted again. This stinky Qingfeng used them as a shield in Luoshui Town.
Later they thought of ways to punish him and play tricks on him.
He always looked regretful, but eventually they softened their hearts and forgave him.
Who would have thought that not long after this, he would pull out his old tricks again, betraying them both in a spectacular way. It was true that people's hearts had changed, and the world was becoming more corrupted.
I called him "Daddy" for three years, but it was all in vain.
Qing Feng couldn't care less about the two angry little bastards. He smiled flatteringly at Jiang Xuanyan, then quickly said solemnly with a serious face,
"Your Majesty, rest assured. Even if it costs me my life, I will not allow anyone to disrupt your and your wife's happiness, not even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince or His Royal Highness the Princess."
