Chapter 26 Foodie Ning Xuan!
Qin Zhizhi prepared a rich breakfast.
I fried some dough sticks and fried leek dumplings. Worried that everyone might not be used to leeks, I also made cabbage oil buns.
I also made steamed dumplings, cooked a big pot of rice porridge, and fried an egg for each person.
When breakfast was served on the table, not to mention Ning Xuan and the Qin brothers, even Gu Jinghuai was dumbfounded.
Is this really their breakfast? It's too rich.
After breakfast was served, Mother Gu asked everyone to start eating quickly, and Ning Xuan was the most active.
"Aunt, what a sumptuous breakfast! My sister-in-law is amazing. She's so skilled at cooking and yet she can make so many different dishes. They look delicious."
Looking at the delicious food in front of him, Ning Xuan kept saying nice things to him. Qin Zhizhi wanted to laugh when she heard it. This was just not enough.
Qin Qingyuan and Qin Qingyun heard from their family yesterday about their sister's changes, and they also knew that everyone in the family was helping their sister make money.
I knew my sister made some money selling recipes, but I didn’t know she could cook so many delicious dishes!
Poor Gu Jinghuai, he has been taking care of Ning Xuan since he returned home yesterday and has no time to understand the situation at home.
Thinking about the meals last night and this morning, Gu Jinghuai decided to give the money for copying books to his wife before leaving.
He will supplement the family income first, and then copy more books.
After Mrs. Gu invited everyone to eat, the Gu family's breakfast began.
Ning Xuan loves leek dumplings and fried dough sticks the most, Gu Jinghuai likes fried eggs and cabbage buns, and the Qin brothers like white rice porridge and fried dough sticks.
When Qin Zhizhi took a bite of the fragrant and soft fried dough sticks, she felt that all the hard work of the morning was worth it.
The children also enjoyed the meal. It was the first time for them to eat fried dough sticks. Following the eldest sister-in-law/third sister, they could always eat delicious food they had never seen before.
Qin Zhizhi prepared enough food and everyone had their fill.
After breakfast, Gu Jinghuai took on the task of washing dishes, and the Qin brothers also helped to clean the kitchen.
After packing up, a few of them went to the mountains to play. Qin Zhizhi went to her mother's house. There was more pepper to harvest today.
Knowing that her grandson-in-law and grandson's classmates had arrived, and that her grandson had been eating at Gu's house, Mrs. Qin asked Li to kill a chicken early in the morning.
She repeatedly told her to process the chickens before sending them to her granddaughter. Qin Zhizhi hated killing chickens since she was a child, and Mrs. Qin remembered it all.
When Qin Zhizhi arrived at the Qin family, Li and Zhang were plucking chicken feathers.
"Zhizhi is here, come in quickly, the chicken will be ready soon, and you can take it back later."
As Li and Zhang spoke, they quickened their pace.
"Ah! Auntie, Mom, is this chicken for me?" Qin Zhizhi was extremely surprised.
"Yes, I killed a chicken especially for you. Jing Huai's classmates are here, right? We raised it at home and it's very fragrant. You are a good cook, so it must be delicious."
Mrs. Li explained to Qin Zhizhi that her son had been having meals at Gu's house for the past few meals.
Last night, the son came back and said that his niece had given him money when she went to the academy. Li now loves Qin Zhizhi to the core.
"Yes, Zhizhi, wait until your mother and your aunt have finished preparing it. You can take it back and give them a snack at noon."
It’s a pity that the family’s resources are limited, otherwise Zhang would be willing to give her daughter more.
Qin Zhizhi knew she couldn't refuse, so she smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mom and Auntie. I'll make lunch for my brothers so they can study harder."
Qin Zhizhi's joke touched the hearts of the two sisters-in-law.
These days, people tighten their belts to support their children's education because they want them to pass the imperial examinations and gain academic success.
"By the way, Mom, aunt, are the new clothes for my brothers ready?" Qin Zhizhi has been busy recently and forgot to ask about the progress.
"I made it a long time ago. I asked your eldest brother and the others to try it on last night. It fits perfectly."
Speaking of this, Li and Zhang were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and the two brothers looked even more handsome in their new clothes.
"Big brother, second brother, you are good-looking already, and mother and aunt are good at making things, so of course you will look even better in them."
Qin Zhizhi's few words made Li and Zhang even happier.
When Qin Zhizhi left the Qin family, she had a chicken in her hand.
Gu Jinghuai and his companions took Ning Xuan out, and the three children followed them. Gu's mother was making clothes in the house, and Qin Zhizhi went to the kitchen with a chicken.
After calculating the ingredients at home, Qin Zhizhi decided to make clay pot chicken for lunch.
Thinking about the food problem of Gu Jinghuai and his brothers in the academy.
Qin Zhizhi took out the dried salted fish that she had dried a few days ago and prepared to cook it and bring it to them at the academy.
Clean the salted fish, cut it into small pieces, blanch it in boiling water to remove some of the saltiness, then rinse the fish pieces in cold water and drain.
Then put oil, peppercorns, dried chili strips, green onions and ginger in the pot, stir-fry until fragrant, then add water and stir-fry the salted fish pieces.
Qin Zhizhi was the only one in the kitchen. She secretly added some cooking wine to remove the fishy smell, and after boiling over high heat, she switched to low heat to simmer.
When Qin Zhizhi was cooking this dish, Wanwan's complaining voice rang in her mind: "Master, you sneak around like a thief every day."
"What do you know? How am I going to explain this to my family if I take these things out?" Qin Zhizhi retorted.
"You have to let them get used to it! That way it will be convenient." Wanwan thought it was simple.
"You think my life is too long." Qin Zhizhi wanted to beat Wanwan up if she could catch him.
"I won't say anything more, I won't say anything more. Master, remember to pay me the storage fee." The money-loving Wanwan urged for the storage fee online.
"Don't worry, you'll be there." Qin Zhizhi found it a little funny. She had different feelings for Wanwan.
Wanwan can be said to be a little spiritual comfort for her after she traveled through the book.
After the spicy salted dried fish came out of the pot, Qin Zhizhi tasted a piece and found it tasted perfect. The dried fish was chewy and went very well with rice.
Qin Zhizhi found a jar, washed it, drained the water, and then put the spicy salted fish into it. After it cooled down, she sealed it.
Qin Zhizhi was willing to use oil, and the dried fish was salty, so it could be kept for a few days.
After making the spicy salted fish, Qin Zhizhi began to prepare the ingredients for the clay pot chicken.
Considering that there were many people in the family, and most importantly, some of them seemed to be big eaters, Qin Zhizhi chopped up the entire chicken.
The chicken that Mrs. Qin asked Li to kill was a rooster. Mrs. Qin raised it well and it weighed about three pounds.
Qin Zhizhi wanted her family to have a taste as well, so she spent a lot of money to exchange a local rooster from Wanwan and chopped it up and put it together.
"Wanwan, your chicken is too expensive!" Qin Zhizhi felt pained when she saw the money she had spent.
"Master, what you want is a free-range chicken. Of course it's expensive. Master, you have to make good money." Wanwan did not forget to encourage Qin Zhizhi.
"I understand. I will make a lot of money and become a rich woman soon."
"Master, come on!"
Qin Zhizhi felt that she had to stand up straight, otherwise everyone would laugh at her.
There were still some dried tea tree mushrooms that Qin Zhizhi had picked from the mountain last time. She soaked them first and saved them for making clay pot chicken later.
