On the contrary, he was very pleased and recognized that she was able to strengthen her confidence in the end, and told her not to think too much in the future and just do her own thing well.
These are enough to prove that Mrs. Xia is an open-minded person and a kind person.
She made the right choice!
But...
She once questioned Lady Xia's character, and was even shaken by the words of the man named Cui.
She deserves to die!
Honglian gritted his teeth and tightly held the silk thread in his hand.
After the Qiuli ointment was cooked, the night was already dark.
Pour all the Qiuli paste into a clean earthen jar, wait for it to cool, then cover the lid for a simple seal. Xia Mingyue placed it in a dry, cool and ventilated place, cleaned it up, washed and rested.
The rest of the people also went back to their houses to sleep.
Only Honglian was sitting by the bed, looking at the burning candle on the table, watching the candle flame jump again and again, watching the wax oil falling along the candle bit by bit, and slowly clinging to the candle holder to form a New wax oil column.
The next morning, everyone got up on time as usual and started a new day.
But Yinqiao, who had taken a broom and was about to clean the yard, was startled when he looked at the clean yard.
After entering the kitchen, Mother Zhuang was stunned when she found that the hot water had been completely heated.
Good guys, they got up early enough, who can get up earlier than them and finish all the work?
The two were so surprised that they even talked about it while having breakfast.
But everyone shook their heads, indicating that they did not do this.
“That’s strange, could it be that we met the snail girl?” Zhuang’s mother joked.
Xia Mingyue smiled and said, "We don't know if she is the snail girl, but since someone does this, there must be a reason for her to do it. Everything she does is simply a good thing, and it is up to her. Go ahead. ”
Just respect it.
While saying this, Xia Mingyue's eyes kept falling on the bowl of tofu in her hand, and she picked up a piece of tofu.
Tofu is fresh tofu bought on the street in the morning. It is cut into thin slices, soaked in water, and then fried until the skin is golden brown. It tastes fresh and delicious.
Seeing this, everyone nodded.
Yes, it doesn’t matter who it is, as long as what they do is not bad, then it doesn’t matter.
Everyone continued to enjoy the light and delicious breakfast, and after breakfast, they began to prepare various ingredients for the noon spicy hot pot according to Xia Mingyue's instructions.
He Shunzi has brought back some of the things Xia Mingyue needs.
Add salt and cold water to fresh duck blood, stir evenly and pour it into a mold to cool naturally and solidify into lumps. Cut it into slices of suitable thickness and soak it in cold water for later use.
The duck intestines have already been processed, and both the front and back are washed cleanly. It only needs to be cut into appropriate sections, and then the final cleaning and confirmation is carried out.
He Shunzi also got a fresh cow stomach.
There are four cow stomachs, namely the rumen, reticulum, omasum and abomasum, with different shapes and even different tastes.
Xia Mingyue cut into pieces or sliced four different stomachs according to local conditions, and processed them very carefully.
As for Zhuang Cui and others, they cut meat slices, washed vegetables, and soaked various fungi and dried bamboo shoots.
Lu Qiyan and An Yunji prepared charcoal fire, hot pot, tables and chairs, etc.
A group of people worked together for a long time and put everything on the table.
As the red soup in the copper pot kept rolling and bubbling under the charcoal fire, everyone officially began to enjoy the spicy hot pot that they had been looking forward to all day.
After the ingredients are cooked, they can be taken out, or eaten directly, or dipped in rich sesame sauce, or dipped in rich sesame oil...
What these chopsticks pull out does not matter whether they are slices of meat or vegetarian dishes. After inhaling the spicy soup base, it can be said to be spicy and fragrant in the mouth, tender and delicious, and full of appetizers!
The wonderful taste of the first bite seemed to open a magical door, releasing the gluttonous beast, causing it to start eating crazily without stopping.
The meat slices are fresh and tender, the tripe is crispy, the fish balls are smooth, the mushrooms are mellow...
All the delicious food blooms in the hot pot, and because the spicy hot pot is soaked and boiled again, you can get it in your mouth Second sublimation.
This spicy hot pot is so delicious!
Everyone was deeply attracted by this delicious spicy hot pot, indulged in it, and devoured it.
A large plate of ingredients was poured into the pot. When it just floated, it was almost completely scooped out. “It’s delicious!”
“It’s delicious!”
“Is this ripe?”
“Do you have to wait until it’s ripe before you can eat it?”
“This is mine, don’t grab it!”
“ Hey, I ordered a plate of tofu slices, but why didn’t I take a turn..."
The noise continued from noon until the sun went down in the afternoon.
The soup in the pot was replenished again and again, until all the spare ingredients were eaten, and the spicy hot pot meal came to an end.
Everyone burped again and again, but they still had more to say.
While packing up, we even discussed when we could eat such delicious spicy hot pot again.
"You can do it tomorrow." Xia Mingyue was very generous, "I fried a lot of hot pot ingredients, enough to eat several times."
Happiness came too suddenly!
Everyone hurriedly agreed, thanked Xia Mingyue, and then began to discuss what ingredients to prepare for tomorrow.
Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Xia Mingyue narrowed her eyes with a smile and began to prepare things for Lu Qiyan and An Yunji.
Each person prepared a set of cotton-padded clothes and a pair of cotton-padded shoes for cold weather.
A small jar of Qiuli ointment per person, ready to drink whenever needed.
In addition, there is a pack of snacks per person.
The glutinous chestnut cake and the crispy and delicious millet crispy rice cake are both delicacies that can grind your teeth and occupy your mouth.
Lu Qiyan and An Yunji both took the things and carefully placed them on their horses.
"Thank you, madam."
"Thank you, sister."
The two of them coincidentally agreed. After discovering this, they turned away from each other in embarrassment, pretending that they were not familiar with each other. Nothing happens.
"My wife, take good care of yourself at home. If I have time, I will come back from time to time to see how I am doing."
"Sister, take care of yourself at home. I will come back when I am not busy."
Xia Mingyue, "… ..."
These two people seem to have bad tempers?
But this was just Xia Mingyue's idea. Lu Qiyan and An Yunji didn't think so. Even after leaving the gate of Changzhou Fucheng, they each went to the military camp at the speed of their own ideas.
An Yunji even twitched his lips, "Deputy Commander Lu's horse seems to be a little old. It's better to run slowly to avoid hurting the horse."
After that, he threw away the horse in his hand. The whip flew away, leaving behind a piece of dust.
Lu Qiyan continued to move forward slowly, shaking his head and smiling.
My brother-in-law...
There is something!
Lu Qiyan walked slowly along the way, and it was already dark when he arrived at the military camp.
Supper has been eaten in the military camp, and the soldiers went back to their tents, leaving only the patrol team walking back and forth.
Lu Qiyan found an opportunity to sneak into Xiao Luoan's camp.
After listening to Lu Qiyan's proposal, Xiao Luoan frowned, "I'm afraid something will happen again." (End of Chapter)
