Chapter 72 Cooking
After Ye Qian followed Gu Jinyan into his house, she found that except for a bed in the room, the rest of his house was empty. It seemed that he didn't live there often.
Ye Qian asked: "Check the injuries on your body and see if they need treatment."
Ye Qian saw that Gu Jinyan's body was covered with footprints and dust from the beating just now, but she knew that the injury was not serious, at least there was no bleeding, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to drag her away so far.
When Gu Jinyan heard Ye Qian's words, he responded: "Okay, I'll change clothes by the way."
Ye Qian agreed: "Yes."
During this period, Ye Qian kept walking around the room. There was nothing she could do. There was not even a stool in the living room, so she kept standing in one place. She couldn't stand, so she could only walk around in the living room.
At this time, there was a click of the door opening, and Gu Jinyan walked out and looked at Ye Qian.
Ye Qian asked with concern: "How is it? Is the injury serious? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
Gu Jinyan hadn't been cared about by anyone for a long time, and now he looked at Ye Qian with an extraordinarily gentle look: "Well, it's nothing, it's just a skin injury."
Ye Qian heard him say it was okay and said: "Okay, since it's okay, I'll leave first. It's getting late."
It's indeed getting late, it's already 4 o'clock, it's time to have dinner.
As soon as Gu Jinyan heard that Ye Qian was leaving, he wanted to keep her, but he didn't know how to say it, and it was inappropriate to say anything: "I'll treat you to dinner."
Ye Qian heard that Gu Jinyan wanted to invite him to dinner, so how could she refuse, but she was a little worried about Gu Jinyan, so she immediately said, "Can you go out to eat if you are injured like this? Do you have anything to eat at home? How about I cook it for you?"
Or I can buy some and pack them back."
Gu Jinyan was a little excited when he heard that Ye Qian was going to cook for him, but then he thought about it and realized that there was nothing at home, so he whispered to Ye Qian: "There is only some rice at home, nothing else, and there is no state-owned restaurant nearby.
"
Ye Qian then thought about it and realized that indeed, the state-owned hotel where she met Gu Jinyan was not close to here.
Ye Qian and Gu Jinyan ran in a hurry before, and she only paid attention to Gu Jinyan the whole way and didn't pay attention to her surroundings.
The area around here was the land where I and my grandmother lived in my previous life, so there was a black market nearby, so I decided to go to the black market to buy it, and then just take something out of the space.
After Ye Qian made her plans, she said to Gu Jinyan: "You rest at home for a while, and I'll go out to buy some food and come back to cook for you."
As soon as Gu Jinyan heard that Ye Qian said she wanted to buy groceries and cook for him, she immediately took out the money and tickets from her pocket and handed them to Ye Qian: "Here, you can buy whatever you want to eat."
How could Ye Qian ask for his money? She didn't have any money: "What do you want to eat?"
Gu Jinyan replied: "I can do either."
People in this era love to eat meat, and I do too, but I can't tell her directly, but what if the little girl can't buy it? Wouldn't it be very disappointing? If I have to find a place to buy meat for myself, that wouldn't be embarrassing.
Is someone else there?
Ye Qian asked Gu Jinyan a few questions, ran out without taking the money and tickets in his hand, and asked him to wait at home.
Gu Jinyan heard Ye Qian's words and waited obediently. He was not a dog. Although he thought so in his heart, he could not hide the smile on his lips.
Ye Qian went out and walked around the area to confirm that this was the area near her home in her previous life. She followed the road to the black market.
The black market has been canceled recently. I remember that when I first came to Han City, I was selling things here. The black market here scared me. It was like a street stall in later generations, and there were many people around here.
Buying while shopping is like a scene of its own.
But now, there are only a few people, and everyone does not show off like before, just walking around the black market with their baskets collapsed, but this is also convenient for escape, after all, the black market is too strict now.
Ye Qian walked around casually and left the black market. She put the ingredients she wanted to eat into her small satchel, then wrapped 3 pounds of pork belly in yellow paper, and took a bucket of noodles. She went back with these things.
After Ye Qian left, Gu Jinyan steamed the rice. After steaming the rice, he was a little worried that Ye Qian would leave and never come back. Gu Jinyan walked back and forth in the living room, just like Ye Qian had just met.
It wasn't until he smelled a mushy smell that he remembered his rice. Just when he was about to throw the rice away, he heard Ye Qian's knock on the door. Gu Jinyan ignored the mushy rice and turned around to open the door for Ye Qian.
Gu Jinyan relaxed after seeing Ye Qian and saw the smile on Ye Qian's face.
Ye Qian was so sweet that she was stunned by Gu Jinyan's sudden smile, and she couldn't recover for a moment.
When I slowly smelled a mushy smell, I realized: "Do you smell anything? It seems like something is mushy."
Gu Jinyan thought of the steamed rice again and said to Ye Qian: "I originally wanted to steam the rice first, but then the heat was too high and it got mushy."
Gu Jinyan himself would not say that it was because he was worried that Ye Qian would not come back and would not be able to take care of the kitchen. He also wanted to save face.
Ye Qian handed the things in her hand to Gu Jinyan and went to the kitchen to look at the rice. Ye Qian opened the lid and saw the round and plump rice grains. She felt that the rice should taste pretty good. It was a pity to pour too much, so she removed the rice.
The batter was added and the batter was poured out, and this amount should be enough for two people.
Gu Jinyan looked at the things Ye Qian handed to her, a bucket of noodles and a pack of pork belly, with a look of surprise on her face. These were scarce supplies. Where did she buy them?
Gu Jin then approached the kitchen and watched Ye Qian put the rice out and put it on the table, and then took out the vegetables from her bag.
Ye Qian's satchel is neither too big nor too small. At least it can hold a lunch box. Ye Qian put the lunch box into the space when she put the vegetables in the satchel, so the satchel was also filled with a small pile of vegetables.
,
Ye Qian took out 2 eggs, 2 tomatoes, and then took out a chicken weighing more than a pound, a handful of mushrooms and some seasonings.
Soak the mushrooms in water first. The chicken has been processed before. Ye Qian first boils the chicken in water and takes it out. Then add oil in the pot and stir-fry for a while. Then pour it into the window where the rice was steamed just now and stew.
That's it. After the water in the pot boils, just add the mushrooms you just soaked. Just cook a chicken for more than an hour and add salt when it's cooked.
Ye Qian had cooked the chicken and now started making braised pork. Ye Qian brought back three kilograms of meat and cooked it all.
Ye Qian first boiled the whole piece of meat in water until it changed color. Ye Qian then took it out and cut it into pieces, so that the half-cooked meat would be easier to cut. Then she poured out the water in the pot.
Clean up the foam, add oil and sugar, stir-fry until the color turns sugary, then add water. Ye Qian adds seasonings such as scallions and star anise to the water, then adds soy sauce, and stews like this. Because there is a lot of meat, it takes half an hour to cook.
