Outside the Matsutake purchasing point.
Cha Jiuzhang helped Cha Yonghao load all the matsutake mushrooms into the car, then jumped out and closed the rear door.
"Xiao Liu, when we get to the county town in the evening, have a good meal with Cha Baiwan before setting off again. When driving at night, you two can take turns driving, and be alert."
He patted his shoulder and said, "You've lost a lot of weight during this period. If you work hard for another half a month, you will feel much more relaxed after the matsutake season is over."
Cha Yonghao raised his arms in a funny way, showing off his biceps.
"Brother, don't worry. Although I'm skinny, my body is full of muscles."
Cha Jiuzhang smiled and squeezed his arm, "Yeah, not bad, pretty solid."
"After you unload the cargo at the airport tomorrow, come and help me with something."
"What's the matter? Brother, tell me."
Cha Jiuzhang handed him a note.
"Go to this address tomorrow and bring back all your sister-in-law's things, mainly her high school books and other things. You must bring them back."
Since you have decided to take the college entrance examination again, you might as well bring everything back as early as possible.
"Ah? Didn't I hear that my sister-in-law graduated from high school a long time ago?"
"Ahem~"
Cha Jiuzhang said a little unnaturally: "This is not the original one. The marriage partner has changed from the elder sister of the Jiang family to the younger sister. She will take the college entrance examination next year."
Brag~
Cha Yonghao almost sprained his waist. "Is this still possible?"
He is worthy of being his brother.
It’s so fierce!
He blinked mischievously, "Brother, do you like eating young grass?"
He knew that his brother had been engaged to the girl from the Jiang family since childhood, but he didn't expect that he could choose between the two?
No wonder I felt that this sister-in-law looked so young just now.
It turns out that she is really young.
Cha Jiuzhang kicked out, frowning slightly.
"What nonsense are you talking about? It was her elder sister who regretted it. On the wedding night, she secretly gave her younger sister sleeping pills and replaced her."
"She is still young. In the future, you should control your mouth in front of her and say less things that you shouldn't say."
When Cha Yonghao heard this, he guessed the reason and his face suddenly turned dark.
"Tsk, sister, you are so short-sighted. It's better not to have such a woman."
Ever since he saw what happened to Cha Baiwan, he understood that there was no way a girl from the provincial capital could be interested in a boy from a poor and remote area like them.
The two are not a good match.
There is a world of difference.
His impression of his new sister-in-law also dropped a bit. With a sister like that, his younger sister probably wouldn't be much better.
What's more, she is so charming.
But he said, "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely handle this matter for you."
After saying that, he stuffed the note into his trouser pocket and punched Cha Jiuzhang in the chest.
"Leave."
Then he jumped into the car, started the car and drove away.
——
In the tea house kitchen.
The chef position has been changed.
Zuo Mingyan looked curious and followed Jiang Tiantian to help her, watching her skillfully make one matsutake dish after another.
It's simply amazing!
"Tiantian, how did you come up with so many ways to eat it?"
It stands to reason that few people can eat Matsutake outside of its place of origin, and many people may have never even heard of it.
It was only after she came back with Cha Chengye that she first saw and tasted this thing.
The common cooking methods used by locals are stewing or stir-frying.
Not as sweet as this.
Jiang Tiantian is neatly spreading a circle of Matsutake slices on the egg custard that has been steamed to 80% doneness.
Return to the pot and steam for a few more minutes.
After serving, drizzle a few drops of soy sauce on it and sprinkle with a handful of chopped green onions.
Very fragrant~
Jiang Tiantian thought, I can’t say, I’ve eaten it before, or even made it myself.
She rolled her eyes, looked up and smiled.
"Mom, I happened to see many ways to cook matsutake in a book before. Today is the first time I've seen matsutake, so I'm going to try it according to the instructions in the book."
Zuo Mingyan was full of admiration and gave her a thumbs up.
"Tiantian, you are so smart. You can remember everything after seeing it once, and you can even do it."
"Mom, I need you to give me a score on whether it tastes good or not later."
"No need to taste it, Mom knows it must be delicious."
…
After the meal was ready, Zuo Mingyan praised Jiang Tiantian's knife skills, color matching, plating, heat control, seasoning, and innovative use of kitchen utensils.
Exaggerated tone
Sincerity of expression
Jiang Tiantian vaguely guessed that this was probably how she interacted with children every day at school.
The whole thing is an education based on love and encouragement, and we will never easily strike back or deny.
Jiang Tiantian seemed to have returned to the time when her parents were still alive.
After working hard outside, they are particularly happy to see their daughter's little progress when they come home.
Tiantian is so awesome!
Sweet is already great!
It’s like her own daughter is the best in the world!
She started learning to cook several years after her parents passed away.
For her, occasionally cooking and making herself a big meal is a rare way to relax and relieve stress.
It’s a pity that my parents have never eaten the food she cooked.
When the three men of the tea family, old, middle-aged and young, finished their work and returned home, a large table full of Matsutake mushrooms had been set up in the house.
Three shocked faces!
Zuo Mingyan proudly introduced them, "This table is all made by Tiantian."
"Matsutake stewed chicken, fried matsutake on stone, grilled matsutake, matsutake tempura, stir-fried matsutake slices, stir-fried matsutake and pumpkin shreds, stir-fried beef with matsutake, matsutake meat rolls, steamed matsutake eggs, matsutake tofu dumplings in clear soup, stewed rice with sausage and matsutake, and matsutake sashimi."
"The kitchen has also made steamed buns stuffed with pine mushroom and beef for tomorrow's breakfast."
Cha Jizu: "Tiantian is really capable."
He praised it sincerely. It was not easy to come up with so many different ways of making it, let alone make it by hand.
This shows that this girl is a smart child with a flexible mind and strong hands-on ability.
"Tiantian is great."
Cha Chengye was deeply moved. His son had grown up but had never had a good meal cooked by him.
Daughters are better, they are caring.
For so many years, I have always regretted not being able to have another daughter.
Now it’s all right. In the future, I will treat my daughter-in-law as my own daughter. It will be the same.
Cha Jiuzhang looked at the table, at the various dishes he had heard of and had never heard of before, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Tiantian was different.
What kind of foodie talent does it take to use one's brain to come up with so many fancy ways of eating?
He had seen it today when he went up the mountain that this girl was definitely greedy for delicious food.
The ancients said: "Being able to eat is a blessing, and being good at eating is wisdom."
But in his heart, Cha Jiuzhang still silently raised the difficulty level of raising a wife to a higher level.
At the dinner table.
In the end, the tea family gave this meal a full score with their most genuine actions.
Because, swept away.
After dinner.
The family sat in the yard and chatted.
Cha Jizu made a pot of health-promoting tea for everyone, which is good for the stomach and digestion.
Walk a hundred steps after a meal, and you will live to be ninety-nine.
Smile every day and you will reach 100.
Jiang Tiantian followed the ancient teachings, strolling back and forth in the yard, occasionally saying a few words, and the family was having a great time.
San Ya then ran to find Jiang Tiantian, hesitating for a long time before asking very embarrassedly:
"Sister-in-law Tiantian, will you go with us to dig for matsutake tomorrow?"
Jiang Tiantian was stunned for a moment, then she suddenly realized that her actions today were a little inconsiderate.
