Chapter 23: Sweet Potatoes, Sweet Potatoes

Chapter 23 Sweet Potato, Sweet Potato

Zhao Yunlan woke up early in the morning and washed and peeled sweet potatoes. Strangely enough, there were sweet potatoes but not potatoes. If there were potatoes, we could make potato powder, Zhao Yunlan was thinking about it while he was busy.

Li Mingmei was busy in the kitchen for a long time, thinking that she was going to cook sweet potatoes in the morning, but Zhao Yunlan didn't say anything about cooking sweet potatoes at all. It wasn't until a dustpan was full that Zhao Yunlan raised her head. Zhao Yunlan was very glad that the sweet potatoes he saved were

Enough.

"Sister-in-law, let's eat first," Li Mingmei called to Zhao Yunlan while setting out the rice.

Zhao Yunlan washed her hands and walked to the upper room to talk to the Li family sitting in the main room: "I have an idea about food."

Li Mingli asked anxiously: "Is this a way to make money? Sister-in-law, if you want my help, just tell me."

Zhao Yunlan replied leisurely: "Don't worry, listen to me first. When I was in town yesterday, didn't I go buy buns for everyone? There was a bookstore over there, so I went in and took a look. I saw a book about

I was curious and flipped through a few pages of books about local customs and customs. I saw a recipe on it. Food made from sweet potatoes is similar to noodles. I stayed there for a long time just to remember this recipe.

, I just want to try it today.”

Li Mingzhi was sitting down with Xiaobao in his arms and said, "Why didn't sister-in-law buy that book?"

Zhao Yunlan: "Hey, I originally planned to buy it, but I asked about the price of the book. It was too expensive, and I flipped through it. Although there seemed to be other recipes in the book, I had never heard of those ingredients.

This is the only sweet potato our family has ever seen, and I’ve written down the recipe, so I’ll wait and see if I can make it.”

Mrs. Wang said to Li Mingzhi: "Yes! Your sister-in-law is being cautious. Now she has to take care of a large family. If she makes a slight mistake, it will cost a lot to make up for it. It is not easy for your sister-in-law to take care of the house. You guys

If you need help, let’s do it together.”

Li Mingmei nodded and said, "I'll make it with my sister-in-law later, so we can have it at night."

"It's not that fast. Although that recipe is simple to make, it still takes a few days." Zhao Yunlan sat next to Xiaobao, taking care of Xiaobao while eating.

Old Man Li ate his meal silently and didn't ask any questions.

After the meal, Old Man Li took the third and fourth brothers to the fields, while Wang and Xiaobao rested in the upper room. Zhao Yunlan took Li Mingmei and cut sweet potatoes in the yard. The Li family did not have the kind that could be peeled and rubbed.

For utensils, you can only use a knife to chop them into small pieces.

Zhao Yunlan was cutting sweet potatoes while recalling the recipes of food videos she had watched before. In the past, Zhao Yunlan liked to watch cooking videos of food bloggers. One time, she happened to see the making of hot and sour noodles, and that video even included sweet potato noodles.

The blogger made it himself. Zhao Yunlan tried to make it once according to the video, and the texture and taste of the final cooking was okay.

The two of them cut it for almost an hour before they managed to achieve the effect Zhao Yunlan wanted. Then they held the prepared filter cloth and began to filter the sweet potato pulp over and over again. After all, the cutting was not very fine. Zhao Yunlan let Li Mingmei filter while filtering.

The wooden stick was used to beat the sweet potato pulp through the gauze. Zhao Yunlan filtered it several times, and finally poured it into a wooden basin and set it aside to let it settle.

Li Mingmei saw that Zhao Yunlan was not instructing the next thing, and wondered: "Sister-in-law, is this done? What does this smell like?"

"Hahaha, you little snacker, you have to wait all night, come back and see tomorrow." Zhao Yunlan laughed so hard at Li Mingmei's anxious expression that her stomach ached from laughing.

Xiaobao listened to Zhao Yunlan's laughter and clamored to come out to see his mother. Mrs. Wang led Xiaobao out, and Zhao Yunlan quickly washed her hands and took Xiaobao.

"Lanniang, what kind of food is this? If you can't make it, don't waste any more sweet potatoes. Is the recipe you read reliable?" Mrs. Li couldn't help but ask.

"Mom, you can take a look at it tomorrow when I make it. I can't tell you now. I've also used the sweet potatoes. If it doesn't work, I'll eat less rice later to make up for the sweet potatoes."

"Just use the sweet potatoes. No matter if they are successful or not, I won't say anything. If you eat less, you have to say less. Your mother and I will not treat my daughter-in-law harshly." Mrs. Wang got tired of standing and turned around to go back to her room.

Zhao Yunlan was very confident, but she couldn't say it directly, so she had to call Li Mingmei and carry Xiaobao to the mountain to collect some firewood and dig some wild vegetables.

The weather has been fine these past few days, and many buds have sprouted on the wild vegetables on the mountains. Zhao Yunlan is very rare.

The two sisters-in-law returned home with a full load, and Zhao Yunlan held Xiaobao's hand and walked slowly. Passing by his own field, Old Man Li and the other three were also packing up and going back. Li Zhizhi ran over like a wind, put Xiaobao on his shoulders, and ran away.

"Little brother, please run slower, the field ridge is slippery." Zhao Yunlan warned loudly, but Li Mingzhi had already run far away.

When the group returned home, Zhao Yunlan followed them to tidy up the chicken yard.

Old Li had nothing to do and wanted to make something up, so he asked Zhao Yunlan.

"Dad, why don't you make up a rabbit? Xiaobao kept clamoring for rabbits after seeing a rabbit that day. See if you can make one for him to play with." Although Xiaobao was not ambiguous at all when eating rabbit meat.

But the fluffy rabbit is still very popular among children.

After listening to Zhao Yunlan's words, Old Man Li looked at Xiaobao's cute expression and began to think about it.

After Zhao Yunlan finished cleaning up here, she planned to make dinner. Since she came back from buying the seasonings, Zhao Yunlan's cooking skills have become better and she is more comfortable cooking. And now she has a lot of oil at home, no matter what

Whatever Zhao Yunlan does, the Li family enjoys it.

Zhao Yunlan's goal is to use the money spent on medicine to eat more meat.

In the evening, the Li family had another full meal. Zhao Yunlan looked at the pot of sweet potato pulp that he had deposited, and told the Li family to be more careful when they got up at night and not to touch the pot of sweet potato pulp.
