Chapter 162 Five Emperors’ Money
“Tell me, who did that just now?!” Zhou Zhi stood at the door with a kitchen knife in his hand and a murderous look.
The chickens in the chicken pen were shivering.
“If you start screaming so early, Tingting, who loves to sleep in so much, can start making noises and then come to make trouble for me!” Zhou Zhi looked fierce: “Tell me, who did it?!”
< br>"Oh oh oh——" A big red-haired rooster provoked without knowing the current situation.
"How about that?" Mu Ruyun was a little speechless about Zhou Zhi's performance personality: "Isn't that just a sentence!"
"It shouldn't be it." Zhou Zhi raised the kitchen knife levelly: "I think it should be It!”
The big white rooster pointed at by Zhou Zhi looked as confused as Lao Mu.
"Why...why?"
"That's foreign chicken, foreign chicken is fat! Hen is not delicious, but the rooster has a little oil, and the soup is better than hen soup!"< br>
"So?" Old Mu was stunned by Zhou Zhi's divine logic. Could this be the "unfounded" version of Baimi Township's Yangjiashanwan Chicken Coop?
“So, it must be it!” Zhou Zhi pointed the blade horizontally at the silent fat rooster.
"The faint king! The ignorant king!" Zhang Lu is familiar with history, and has now entered the Southern Song Dynasty for Zhou Zhi, and he empathizes with the big white rooster.
Now the big white rooster has become a tragic hero dressed in white prison uniform, kneeling at the Meridian Gate to be beheaded in the winter.
“You can’t do this!”
"Just killing a chicken," Zhou Zhi just dug a hole and did not bury it: "Passepartout, do you want to be so serious?"
"..."
The big fat white rooster did not escape in the end. Zhan's fate is even more tragic than that of an old shelduck.
It is impossible for the old shelduck to crow, but the reason why Hunjun is Hunjun is because he is cruel and cruel. He thought that the big fat white rooster would be too lonely to go on the road alone, so he found one to accompany him.
The real background is that Lao Yang’s family has a new beater that can beat konjac pulp, so today we have konjac at home.
There is also ginger.
Old duck roasted with konjac, duck stuffed with ginger, the taste is amazing...
There is also roasted eel with green bamboo shoots and garlic...
Plus I didn’t eat it at all yesterday After finishing the stewed vegetables, the dishes were already quite rich, so Lao Yangtou decided to add a big pot of beancurd.
By the way, inviting all the neighbors here can be regarded as an advertisement for your own beater.
So this became a slightly bigger battle.
The early morning work is still to feed the pigs, chickens, ducks and the friends...
Breakfast is a large pot of sweet potato porridge, salted duck eggs, last night's bacon, and the remaining steamed pork with rice flour, and then Zhou Zhi also used fresh garlic heads to make a cold garlic soup.
Sweet potato porridge is the boss's pot. My sister-in-law cooked it by the way when she was cooking pigweed. Now the temperature is just right.
Zhou Zhi also learned this dish from Jiang Shuyi’s family. At home, he usually eats the pickles and candied clams made by his aunt. He once tasted it once when Jiang’s father used fresh clams. After eating the cold clams for the first time, I also fell in love with that bite.
Girls are very fond of sweet potato porridge. Zhou Zhi saw that Jiang Shuyi liked it very much and ate two bowls of it with cold garlic.
This is the second bowl of Yang He's family. It is smaller than the big bowl and larger than the rice bowl.
After dinner, it’s time to get busy. First, beat the beans soaked last night into soy milk, then clean the machine and make konjac milk. Girls in the town have never seen how konjac is made. When dug out, it looks like a large, light-colored water chestnut. Peel off the skin and cut into pieces, then add water to beat it.
You don’t need much. One-third of the root of a konjac root is enough to make a large pot.
However, the eldest brother did not intend to stop and beat up the entire konjac tree dug by Yang He. He had already informed the guests to bring their own basins and they could take some konjac back after dinner.
The preparation of konjac is very simple. Add a few ladles of slurry to a pot of water to make a paste. Then add clarified quicklime water and mix well. Let it sit for a while and the konjac will complex into a gel. Use a large razor blade to scratch it. Make it into big squares and you're done.
There is too much konjac and there is no place to put it, so I can only throw it into a small water tank to calm it down.
The konjac was boiled in two large pots, and the next step was to make bean curd.
Zhou Zhi and Yang He are responsible for killing chickens, killing ducks, collecting chicken blood, removing feathers, burning feathers, and cleaning internal organs.
The girls didn't have to do today's work, and they couldn't do it, so they had already started playing. They used a shuttlecock sewn by Yang and Ma with a Qianlong Tongbao and a cloth-headed goose quill, and inserted the tail feathers of a big white rooster into it. Li kicked up.
Copper Coins Yang and Lao Duo in his family originally had a jar of gold bars and two jars of silver coins. However, when the situation became tense, Lao Yang could not bear the pressure and took the initiative to hand it over. It was also because of this performance. The government only took away the farmland and redistributed it. It did not divide up the old Yang family's mansion and left it all to him.
There is still a jar of copper coins left.
Zhang Lu, who couldn't cook now, was there picking out copper coins with a dustpan in hand.
Qianlong Tongbao is the most common here, followed by Jiaqing, and the remaining three Shunzhi, Kangxi, and Yongzheng are rare, especially Yongzheng, which is the rarest.
Zhou Zhi just gave Zhang Lu a hint and said that it is best to use Qianlong Tongbao to shake the Plum Blossom Hexagram, and if he can collect a set of Five Emperors' Money, carrying it with him will have the effect of warding off evil spirits.
Then Zhang Lu listened and is now checking.
Unlike a few decades later, today's copper coins are not qualified to be among the "antiques". They are basically small toys for children to play with.
"Yongzheng, Yongzheng, Yongzheng..." Finally, Zhang Lu dug out a coin from a dustpan: "Yongzheng Tongbao: "Hey, it's all here! How should elbows be braided and strung together? "
Zhou Zhi took out a money string tied with red silk thread from his bag: "Here, that's it. ”
"Eh? Why is your money from the Five Emperors different from mine?"
"Of course it's different. This is just the Five Emperors of the Qing Dynasty. Mine is half a liang from the Qin Dynasty, five baht from the Han Dynasty, Kaiyuan from the Tang Dynasty, and Hongwu from the Ming Dynasty. , Qing Kangxi, the five most powerful dynasties in Chinese history, more powerful than you, the Five Emperors of the Qing Dynasty. ”
“Where did you get this?”
“Shudu, Shudu Gongmei? You picked it up at a stall outside when you were buying calligraphy and painting.” br>
“Damn it, you didn’t tell me then!”
"Tell me, do you have money? I don't have to give it to you. At that time, will you let me give it to you?"
"Uh..."
"Just pick it up and give it to me. Shuyi, let her do it for you, she can do this."
"You don't care?" Zhang Lu couldn't believe it.
"Huh? I care a lot." Zhou Zhi couldn't help but said proudly: "Why would she do it? My grandma didn't teach her."
The process of bean curd is much more complicated than that of konjac. The slurry needs to be boiled for three to three volts, and then the fine slurry needs to be filtered. The bean dregs and crispy rice are cheaper than today's big fat pigs, chickens and ducks. The fine slurry is boiled again. Add brine to allow the soy milk to condense. Place a bamboo basket to filter out most of the "cellar water" and allow the tofu to condense. Then use a large razor blade to cut it into small pieces. Add water and bring to a boil over low heat to keep warm. Wait for it to come out of the pot.
When the fine slurry was filtered and boiled, Yang and his mother scooped out a large basin and added sugar: "Classmates, come and drink soy milk!"
