Chapter 114 Return Gift



Jiang Yanqing entered the kitchen and looked around. There was nothing left. After thinking of the recipe in her mind, Jiang Yanqing took out the ingredients from the space.

The first dish is corn and shrimp. Wash the peeled shrimp, put them in a bowl, add salt, cooking wine, and water starch and mix well. Serve with half a bowl of sweet corn kernels and half a bowl of chopped green peppers.

Pour peanut oil into the wok and heat it until it is 60% hot, then pour in the shrimps and stir-fry until cooked.

Pour some oil into the wok and heat it up. Add the green pepper and stir-fry until cooked. Add the sweet corn and shrimp and stir-fry. Add the broth, salt, MSG and cooking wine and stir-fry for a few times. Thicken with water starch and it is ready to be served.

The second dish is hand-shredded chicken. Compared with other cooking methods, hand-shredded chicken is drier and milder in nature, making it suitable for the elderly.

Use half a tender chicken as the main ingredient. Wash it and dry it. Apply a thin layer of salt on the chicken. Stuff two slices of ginger into the chicken's belly and marinate for five minutes.

Prepare another bowl, put in a tablespoon of dark soy sauce, a tablespoon of light soy sauce, a little salt, a tablespoon of sugar, and a bottle cap of cooking wine, mix well, then spread it evenly on the chicken and marinate for 20 minutes.

Put a piece of chicken fat from the chicken stomach on the bottom of the pressure cooker, spread the onion slices and ginger slices on it, then put the marinated chicken in, pour in the marinating seasoning at the same time, pour a spoonful of salad oil on the chicken, and start stewing.

After ten minutes, the pot will boil and the chicken will be golden and tender. Take out the chicken and tear it into pieces. Add minced ginger, minced garlic, ginger juice, a few drops of light soy sauce, a little chopped green onion, a little bit of sugar and a small spoonful of sesame oil to the chicken. You can also serve it with dipping sauce.

The third dish is fried loofah with eggs. Peel and cut two loofahs into sections. Beat three eggs into egg drops. Pour oil into the pan, pour the egg drops in and fry until both sides are golden brown. Chop them into pieces with a spatula and set aside.

Pour some more oil and add the loofah and fry until soft. Add the eggs, some salt, chicken essence and light soy sauce to season, stir-fry until cooked and serve.

Finally, he made a tomato and egg soup, adding some dried shrimps and dried seaweed to make it fresh. Three dishes and one soup, served with white rice. Old man Qin sat at the table, swallowed his saliva several times, and then waited for Jiang Yanqing to bring out the bowls and chopsticks.

This was the first time Jiang Yanqing cooked so carefully in this era. She was thinking about her grandfather who loved her the most in her previous life and whether he had eaten well when he was alone.

If I had grown up by then, I would definitely go back to accompany my grandfather, but things in the world are unpredictable after all.

This melancholy only flashed by. Jiang Yanqing brought the bowl and chopsticks, added a bowl of rice to Old Man Qin, and handed it to him, "Grandpa Qin, you're welcome, eat more."

Old Man Qin picked up a piece of chicken with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth. He nodded and gave a thumbs up, "Delicious, delicious. This is your cooking skill, Xiaoqing."

Jiang Yanqing smiled and didn't respond. She added more dinner for Fang Mingxiao, and finally served herself some food before sitting down to eat.

When cooking, I use the well water from my own space, and with my own cooking skills, it is expected that the food will be delicious.

After dinner, it was almost half past five. Old Man Qin wiped his mouth and said with a smile, "Xiaoqing, I have never eaten such delicious food. I don't know if I will have the chance to eat it again in the future. As I get older, I eat less and less."

Jiang Yanqing stood up helplessly and poured a glass of water for Old Man Qin. "Grandpa Qin, you are not old. Don't always say those discouraging words. I will cook for you when I am free, okay?"

"Okay, okay, then I'll wait for you at home, Xiaoqing."

Jiang Yanqing nodded, smiled, and sent Old Man Qin out the door, watching him ride away on his tricycle.

Back in the living room, Fang Mingxiao looked at the time. It was almost six o'clock, so it was time to get ready and go out.

Yesterday I made an appointment with someone to meet in the yard at the entrance of the well at 7 o'clock, which would take more than half an hour to get there.

Fang Mingxiao was packing up downstairs. Jiang Yanqing went upstairs and entered the room. With a wave of her hand, a light brown wooden box appeared on the desk.

The twelve-inch box is neither too big nor too small. It is divided into three layers, and the top layer has six compartments.

This was a souvenir Jiang Yanqing bought when she traveled to Daxinganling. It was made of elm wood, polished very smoothly inside, and engraved with auspicious cloud patterns on the outside.

I didn't know why I bought it at the time, I just thought it looked nice and elegant, so I bought it.

After Fang Mingxiao gave her a skirt last time, Jiang Yanqing had been thinking about giving him a gift in return. After thinking about it, she decided that this box would be the most suitable medicine box for Fang Mingxiao.

However, this box was not easy to carry, so Jiang Yanqing took it out and asked an old carpenter to make two buckles on both sides of the box, and matched it with a cowhide strap that Jiang Yanqing had sewn by hand.

At this moment, the box was lying quietly on the table. Jiang Yanqing carried the box and quietly went downstairs.
