Chapter 151 Anan's Feelings

The ingredients for sweet noodle sauce are very simple, mainly flour.

The general method is to ferment it, but that is too troublesome, and Jiang Wan was too lazy to make something so complicated. So she made a super simple version of sweet noodle sauce.

She first scooped ten bowls of water into the clean pottery basin, and then scooped a bowl of wheat flour into it. This ratio is the most appropriate. More water will make it thinner, while more wheat flour will make it dry.

After adding everything in, stir until there are no lumps left, that’s the best result.

After stirring, Jiang Wan began to add other ingredients.

Sweet noodle sauce. Sweet noodle sauce, of course it has to be sweet with sugar. Jiang Wan didn't add too much, just two spoons. Then she added soy sauce and oyster sauce and stirred them together.

She had eaten sweet noodle sauce with five-spice powder and thirteen-spice powder before, but she couldn't get used to the taste.

Let’s keep it simple. We’ll add spices when making barbecue sauce anyway.

Jiang Wan mixed the flour and ingredients in the ceramic bowl evenly, then poured them directly into the pot and started to cook over low heat.

The fire must not be too high, and the pot must be stirred constantly. Otherwise, the sauce will either become mushy or bitter. Anyway, this is a delicate job.

Jiang Wan is very good at cooking. She made the sweet noodle sauce by herself.

Baozhu was so jealous watching from the side.

She had no idea how to do the stove work. When she was little, her parents didn't let her do it. When she grew up, she wanted to learn, but she couldn't do it.

She can only cook some porridge now...

Xiao Wan is so amazing.

As soon as Li Anan entered the yard, he saw Baozhu in the kitchen, and he felt so upset that he felt like crying.

Although I knew she would be here, I still envied her when I saw her in person.

When will Doctor Yin be willing to accept me...

Li Anan looked eagerly at the pharmacy, then turned and walked towards the stove room.

"Anan!"

Baozhu was quite surprised to see her and took the initiative to greet her. Li Anan quickly put away his frustration and smiled again.

"Baozhu, Xiaowan~ There was a typhoon a few days ago and I didn't dare go down the mountain. Are you guys okay here?"

"It's okay, it's okay. Everything is fine."

Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows in surprise. Baozhu seemed to have a good relationship with this Anan. What was going on?

Huh?

Li Anan changed into clothes similar to those of the villagers down the mountain today, and she braided her hair. If it weren't for her accent, it would be difficult to tell that she was a Li.

No wonder she dared to walk into the village so swaggeringly.

Did A-niang agree to take her as her apprentice?

Jiang Wan was just wondering when she saw Li Anan take all the things in the basket to the table.

"I just felt uneasy so you guys came down to check on me. I'm going to give you some herbs and leave right away. I picked these around the village. Some of them seem to be able to stop bleeding and heal wounds, and I'm not sure what some of them are, but the old people in the village say they are medicine. You guys take them to Doctor Yin to have a look. If they're useful, I'll go get more next time."

Having said that, the little girl put on the backpack and walked away.

"Anan!"

Jiang Wan and Baozhu didn't have time to react before the man disappeared.

When Yin Huaixi heard the noise and walked out of the pharmacy, there was nothing unusual at the front door, but the two girls in the kitchen looked strange.

Before she turned around and went back to the pharmacy, her eyes were immediately attracted by the pile of medicinal herbs on the table in the kitchen.

She ran into the kitchen and picked up a plant with several thorns on it, and was delighted.

"This is a mandala! Where did it come from?!"

Jiang Wan's eyes became complicated when she heard Mandala's words.

"This was just sent by Li Anan. She took out these herbs and left."

Yin Huaixi: “…”

"Not accepting this girl doesn't mean we don't welcome her."

Moreover, she had long wanted to accept Li Anan as her husband.

Although they only met for a short time last time, she could see that Li Anan was a good kid and had the potential to be a good apprentice.

Traditional Chinese medicine is difficult to learn. It is rare to meet someone who is willing to learn and has talent and a good character. Of course, we cannot miss this opportunity.

Now with the addition of Mandragora, it is even more necessary to collect it.

Who knows how many good herbs there are in the deep mountains. After accepting Li Anan, I won’t have to worry about the Li people when I go into the mountains to collect herbs in the future.

The more I thought about Yin Huaixi, the more excited I became. I almost couldn't help but go out to chase Li Anan back.

Forget it. I will go up the mountain to collect herbs in a few days anyway. If that girl wants to learn medicine, she will come to find her.

Yin Huaixi hugged the pile of medicinal herbs into her arms like a treasure and returned to the pharmacy happily.

Jiang Wan shook her head in amusement. Ah Niang was really dazzled by the mandrake. Ah Niang didn't even remember the last time when Lian Yue and Lian Qiao were knocked unconscious at the door of their home after being dazzled by the mandrake pollen.

I couldn't guess who did it before, but now it seems that it must be this girl Li Anan.

It turned out that she had noticed A Niang a long time ago.

This girl has a good personality and is very capable. Maybe she will become A Niang's first disciple. I feel happy for her just thinking about it.

Jiang Wan looked at Baozhu. Baozhu was still just a junior apprentice, not a formal disciple. But A Niang was quite satisfied with her and mentioned several times that Baozhu had a talent for studying medicine.

It seems that there is still competition for the position of the senior sister~

Jiang Wan immersed herself in re-mixing the spices, while wondering whether she should prepare a gift for A Niang's apprentice.

Whether in ancient times or modern times, if you are a disciple, it is a very serious master-disciple relationship. In ancient times, it might be closer, and the disciple would treat the master as an elder like his parents and be filial to him.

This is not bad. It is too little for my mother to be loved by only herself.

"Xiao Wan, you spilled the spices!"

Jiang Wan came to her senses and quickly put the spices that had spilled on the stove back into the bowl.

Today she has already made an appointment with Xiaoman's family and asked them to help harvest 20 kilograms of squid.

The fishing boats will be back in the evening, so I have to prepare the barbecue sauce early.

Jiang Wan and Baozhu spent a long time grinding spices in the kitchen, and she even invited Baozhu to have lunch at home.

Most of the dishes were packed from Fengweilou.

If there are more people, we can give her more feedback after the meal.

She saw her uncle eating a piece of lychee flesh, his face looked very interesting, and she felt like she couldn't swallow it or spit it out.

"Uncle, how about this dish?"

Yin Huaishan: “…”

He resisted the urge to spit it out and swallowed the meat with difficulty.

"Did they put the wrong amount of sugar in this dish? Why is it so sweet?"

It's so sweet in the first bite, much sweeter than the coconut chicken soup I had last time.

Jiang Wan looked at her aunt and cousin. Like her uncle, her aunt was not used to this dish, but her cousin seemed to be accustomed to it and even liked it very much.

Yes, she loves sweets.

Looking at Baozhu again, she can’t say that she likes him, but she should be in love with him.

Baozhu would happily suck the juice off the lychee flesh first, and then eat the flesh, chewing it slowly as if she was eating some delicacy.

Of course, it is also possible that she wanted to maintain her image in front of her mother.
