The Daily Life of the Daughter of a Minor Official

Chapter 216 Bibimbap stands in the way of others

Su Dalang and Su Anzhi returned from Wei County and continued to study in the Imperial College. Su Ruojin told him about the promotion banquet hosted by the Yang family on the fifth day of August, "You ask for leave from the doctor and sit down at the banquet as a favor on behalf of father."

Su Anzhi nodded, "Amei, when will you return to Wei County?"

"After you go to the Yang family for a banquet, if there is nothing else in the capital, I will return to Wei County."

Su Anzhi really wanted his sister to stay in the capital. He always felt warm and secure when she was by his side. However, he also knew that his parents could not live without his sister, especially when his father was suddenly appointed as the magistrate of Weizhou. She could also help him. Dad opened up the clueless situation, and Mr. Pei said that if my sister were a man, she would definitely achieve a lot.

Su Ruojin didn't know what her brother was thinking. Seeing that he was tired, she quickly asked him to rest, "When I wake up, I'll make delicious food for you."

After traveling for more than a day, Su Anzhi was really tired, so he took the boy back to the hospital to rest.

At the end of July, it is cool in the morning and evening and hot at noon. What delicious food should I make for my brother?

Su Ruojin actually didn't have much energy and was too lazy to move. She glanced at the small stone pot placed on the corner of the kitchen counter and frowned. If you have it, let's have some stone pot bibimbap.

Bibimbap is a special rice dish from a certain peninsula and the Northeast. The main ingredient is of course rice, with meat, eggs, soybean sprouts, mushrooms and various wild vegetables.

There are no specific requirements for the types of dishes, just use seasonal vegetables.

The preparation of stone pot bibimbap is also very simple. Put all the ingredients in a stone pot and cook them together. Rice and vegetables are all served in one pot, because there are white rice, green vegetables, red bacon and other colors. Colorful, not only low in calories, with a wide variety of vegetables, but also high in nutritional value, it is simply delicious, delicious, and mouth-watering.

Su Ruojin asked Mao Ya to buy ingredients that were not available at home. At home, she first went to the vegetable patch to pluck chicken feathers, picked cucumbers, pinched water spinach, and then dug out the bacon and sausages from the cellar, washed and sliced ​​them.

She was so itchy that she couldn't help but pick two hot peppers. They were not red yet and the seeds inside were useless. However, Su Ruojin felt distressed for a long time. "It's a sin. It's a sin. These two have at least dozens of seeds. It's really... really What a waste of natural resources!”

But she couldn't help but explode the bacon and sausage with these two hot peppers. A fresh aroma came to her nostrils. Oh my God, it was so fragrant. She stretched out her chopsticks to pick up a piece first.

Well, that’s what it tastes like! It’s been such a long time!

The sluggish mood and low-pressure mood are instantly restored and full of energy again.

I happily washed the red radishes I bought and the cucumbers I picked at home and cut them into shreds. I washed the chicken lettuce and cut it into sections. Then I washed the bean sprouts and blanched them and fried them. .

Next, beat the eggs with salt and pour them into the pot, fry them and cut them into shreds and set aside.

Brush a layer of oil in the stone pot, pour in the rice, flatten the rice slightly, put in cucumber shreds, chicken feathers, water spinach segments, bean sprouts, egg shreds, etc., then add the fresh pork belly and chili that you bought and sauteed them until fragrant. Put the bacon and sausage on top, put the stone pot on the fire and heat it until the rice makes a "sizzling" sound. Remove the stone pot, add some sauce while it's hot and you're ready to eat!

Of course, in some places, a soft-boiled poached egg is added to the stone pot bibimbap and mixed with the rice. It tastes good this way, but some people don’t like soft-boiled poached eggs, such as Su Ruojin, who didn’t put it in the one she made for herself. , she likes to add meat sauce. In the Yin Dynasty, beef was not easy to come by, so the meat sauce used in Su's shop was usually pork. Only beef sauce was used at home.

Mao Ya was preparing a pot of bibimbap when she came out from behind the stove and found her little master in a daze. He glanced at the jar of beef sauce in her hand and realized that the beef in the sauce was given by the little prince.

Ever since he had dinner with the little prince two nights ago, the little master has often been in a daze like this. Does the little master really like the little prince Zhao? But there are rumors outside that Princess Jin's heart is the niece of the Queen's mother's family, so the young master and the young prince may not be destined to each other!

"Jin Niang?"

Su Ruojin was awakened by Sister Mao Ya, scooped up two small spoons of meat sauce and mixed it well: "Sister Ya, ask Uncle Hua and Aunt Ye to come over and eat."

"Didn't you just say that you would like a pot of soup?"

"Oh, yes...look at my memory." Su Ruojin regained her distracted thoughts and made an egg drop soup with chrysanthemum leaves. This is a famous soup in the Jingling area. It was originally eaten in spring, but in the flower border The chrysanthemum leaves were so tender that she couldn't help but pick a few and made egg drop soup. Drinking a bowl of it in the autumn weather was very delicious as it cleared away heat and dispelled internal heat.

The stone pot was not big, and if one pot was not enough, Su Ruojin made another pot. This pot contained soft-boiled eggs, which Su Anzhi and Hua Ping liked to eat.

Female compatriots such as Su Ruojin and Ye Huaizhen didn't like it very much because they found the taste of the poached eggs fishy.

Su Dalang loved to eat, "Mei, this rice is delicious. It has both vegetarian and meat dishes. Is it the rice bowl made in our shop?"

"No." Su Ruojin smiled, "Donburi rice is donburi rice, and stone pot bibimbap is stone pot bibimbap."

Hua Ping asked in confusion: "Isn't it the same as rice topped with various vegetables?" In the past two days, he went out to do errands and came back late at noon, so he ate lunch in the shop.

This...well, if Uncle Hua thinks so, then that’s it!

After dinner, Su Anzhi went to the study to review his homework in preparation for returning to the Imperial College tomorrow.

Ye Huaizhen and Mao Ya went to clean up the dishes.

Huaping and the young lady stood on the porch to enjoy the breeze. While looking at the scenery in the courtyard, they said, "The fire girl Li Xiuzhu was not found."

"Not on Li's side?"

"Ms. Li is also missing."

"Could it be that the two of you took advantage of the chaos and escaped?"

"It's possible." Hua Ping said, "I've checked with Mang Zhong. On the first day of chaos in the capital, some neighbors did see Li Xiuzhu going to see Mrs. Li and brought her a lot of food and clothing. At that time, the chaos in the capital was , not to mention at night, even in broad daylight, everyone closed the door and locked it and dared not open the door. Occasionally they heard a noise and peeked under the door to check, so in the end no one saw when Li Xiuzhu left or whether he took Li away. ”

When the capital was in chaos, even Su Yanli and his son sneaked out quietly through Zhao Lan's connections. Zhao Lan was the deputy commander of the Imperial City Department, and it was very difficult for him to get people out, let alone a commoner mother and daughter.

"Where is the person?" Su Ruojin looked at Hua Ping, "He didn't disappear innocently, did he?"

Hua Ping said: "It is not impossible to be accidentally killed by the rebel army."

Su Ruojin frowned, "Then should I go to the Yamen to report missing?"

"I've already signed up for you."

"What about Li's side?"

"I also reported it."

Su Ruojin sighed deeply.

Huaping frowned and asked, "Why are you sighing?"

"I feel that the lives of Li's mother and daughter are miserable."

Seven years ago, the mother and son escaped into the alley, but were caught and thrown into prison by the tribe. The family property was divided up by the tribe. Later, Li was sold to a fool, and Li Xiuzhu was sold to an old man. As a result, they did not live until March. , the old man died, and the old man’s children sold her to a middle-aged widower. As a result, the middle-aged widower went out to do business and fell into a pond and died. The third time she was sold to a fool like his mother, and the fool He hit the wall and died, and finally transferred to the Su family. Unexpectedly, a riot in the capital would make their mother and daughter disappear from the eyes of the world. Even the people from the Detective Department could not find them, and they were afraid that they would be in danger.

A basement in the capital was dark and dark. Li Xiuzhu had been locked up here for almost a month. She was afraid that she would forget about her life, so every day someone would bring her food and mark a mark on the bars of her cell.

Today, not long after the food delivery person left, a man with a scarf covering his face and only one eye exposed appeared in front of the fence. The stone in Li Xiuzhu's hand was stuck on the carved line and did not move. He raised his eyes numbly and looked at the person.

The man spoke in a gloomy and gloomy tone, "Your mother has been sent to another place by us. If you are obedient, we will reunite you and your mother when things here are over. If you are disobedient or unable to cooperate with us in doing good deeds, then your mother will There is only one fate for both of them, and that is death."

Li Zhuxiu was numb and expressionless, but the man with one eye exposed saw that the lines drawn by the stones were deeper than any other lines. He raised the corner of his mouth and asked coldly, "What habits does Su Erniang have?"

Li Xiuzhu's eyes narrowed and she stared closely at the man outside the fence. "Besides being reunited with my mother, what other benefits can I get? Can I eat and drink like I did in the Su family?"

The man raised his eyebrows very high and sneered coldly: "You dare to negotiate terms with us, a **** like you?" Li Zhuxiu lowered her hand, and the pebbles fell on the ground. She sat down on the dark and damp ground, her eyes blind. He was stunned, staring at the wooden fence blankly, like a living dead under the light of the torch.

The man bit his back teeth, bitch, "Unlock."

"Yes, Master."

When she opened the door, the masked man reached out and strangled her neck.

Li Zhuxiu's face instantly turned purple, and she tried to pry the man's hand away with both hands, but she was no match for him. She kicked her legs straight up and almost lost her breath at the sight of him.

The man's hands relaxed.

"Ahem..." Li Xiuzhu breathed heavily.

The man narrowed his eyes, "Say-"

Li Xiuzhu stared at the man.

The man's cold eyes shone with impatience, and he raised his hand...

"She likes to be in the public eye, and it's easy for you to find opportunities."

"Can't you understand people? What habits does she have?"

In King Jin's study, Zhao Lan sat opposite his father. There was a piece of paper on the table with a list of names on it, one of which was Yang Jingzi.

King Jin stared at the book case with a serious look on his face. It took him a long time to loosen his tight lips and said, "At this time, it is impossible for the new emperor to believe that the man named Yang is a spy from the Liaoxia Kingdom, let alone that he is the 'Ulacao' The leader, even if he believes it in his heart, he will never admit it on his face. "

That was the hero who helped him rise to power.

Zhao Lan glanced at his father, waited for a while, then stretched out his hand to pull the paper on the table, and threw it into the candle burner next to it. Sparks lit up, and after a while, the piece of paper turned into ashes.

He stood up and saluted, "I'll take my leave first."

"Alan—"

Zhao Lan stopped and turned to look at his father, "You must agree to the Queen's marriage."

"Father—" Zhao Lan turned around and faced his father, "I am just a young son. Even if I don't have to do any errands, I can live a life of food and clothing without any worries."

"No, you're wrong." Prince Jin was more serious than his son, "A family like ours is either a king or worse than a bandit."

"Father!"

King Jin seemed to know what his son was going to say, and said directly, "Don't talk about it from afar, Prince Qi and Prince Qi nearby, do you think you can still live an ordinary life?"

"Father, I am different from them." Zhao Lan disagreed with King Jin's statement. "Father, I am just a young son. It is impossible for me to get married." After saying that, he turned around and left again.

King Jin stopped his son again, "Lan'er, do you know what rejection means?"

Zhao Lan stopped again and turned to look at his father.

Father and son looked at each other, glory and wealth flashing before their eyes.

Her son was often absent from home, and Princess Jin finally caught her son, "Lan'er, Lan'er, why have you lost weight?"

Zhao Lan: ...Why is he so thin?

Shuangrui: ...There is a kind of thinness that your mother thinks you are thin, and you are just thin.

Princess Jin took her son's hand and sat down together, "Lan'er, the turmoil in the capital has subsided after the new emperor ascended the throne. It's your turn to get married."

"Mother and concubine, the country is mourning and it is not suitable to marry."

Princess Jin was dumbfounded by her son's serious look, "I'm not asking you to get married during the mourning period, but I want you to see each other first. If you like her, let's make a decision first so that you can feel at ease, right?"

"Mother, I am a young son. You promised me to marry whoever I want."

"Then who do you want to marry?" Princess Jin seemed to know who her son wanted to marry, "The seventh-grade Su family is absolutely impossible."

"Why?"

Princess Jin had a cold look on her face, "In my opinion, Su's ability to reach the seventh rank is the result of you and Fan Zengxian working together to promote him. The Su family has no help in your work and is not a good match. "

"Concubine, are you forcing your son to be a **** for the rest of his life?"

Princess Jin was about to say something when her son choked her with a mouthful of blood, "Lan'er, you..." She was so angry that she slapped her chest, "Just make me angry, make me mad, and you will get the reward." As desired.”

Zhao Lan: ...My father allows me to do it for the sake of the family, but my mother doesn’t let me marry my sweetheart. This old couple has reached the same goal through different paths!

He tapped his fingers lightly on the surface of his legs. How could he get rid of those who stood in his way?

There were still a few days until the fifth day of August. Su Ruojin was preparing to buy some daily necessities and bring them to Weizhou before leaving Beijing.

"By the way, don't buy the fragrant rice noodles. I'll make some at home when I have some free time these days."

There are not many materials to make this thing. I need to buy lard fat and find some shells, but it takes a lot of effort. I also have to filter the lye from the plant ash. In short, it is a time-consuming thing, so I have to do it first.

Su Ruojin spent two days tinkering at home before pouring the fragrant soap into the mold and waiting for it to cool and take shape automatically.

"Let's buy some more cloth, insect repellent and other items." Su Ruojin made a list of the things she wanted to buy, so as not to go out and forget them and have trouble.

Ye Huaizhen had been in a bad mood, so Su Ruojin pulled her along while shopping, "Aunt Ye, don't be discouraged. Maybe God has already arranged the bad guy's ending. We just need to wait."

Ye Huaizhen didn't believe such nonsense: "If there is really retribution, then there will be no wronged souls or evil ghosts in this world."

Su Ruojin comforted her again: "Let's go, go shopping, life must go on."

Ye Huaizhen was so dragged by the little boss that he had no choice but to go shopping with her.
