Yan Huang looked at Su Jian's walking back and felt more and more distressed. The main purpose of their return this time was to ask the master for help. Now that the master is not at home, wouldn't it mean that they have no way to ask for help and have to go back?
Su Jian suppressed the doubts in her heart and was thinking about what to buy along the way. You can buy chickens and ducks. If you can't finish them today, you can raise them for tomorrow. You also need to buy pork. The vegetables in the house are not oily and can be eaten in your mouth.
It can only make you not hungry, but it doesn't taste at all. There are some seasonings, a country place...
Wait, there might be some unexpected gains from the Barefoot Man.
Goose Huang wanted to discuss with Su Jian along the way, but Su Jian led Zhan Lei and kept going from house to house, buying this and that. Gradually, she gave up the idea of asking. In fact, she didn't need to ask the lady.
Whatever she wants to do, she can just follow her. If someone insists on bullying her, then she will have to stand in front of her even if she dies!
After thinking about it, Yan Huang's whole aura changed.
General's Mansion.
Su Jian methodically directed Goose Yellow to fry the lard. In fact, she wanted to do it herself, but the original owner had been spoiled since childhood and did not know how to cook. If she did it directly, it would definitely arouse suspicion. So she could only dictate, Goose Yellow
Take action.
Mrs. Li looked at Su Jian standing in front of the stove, and then at the ingredients stacked in the kitchen. Meat, it was full of meat... She swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Sister-in-law, there is so much meat, can you give me a piece?"
Zhan Lei's voice rang in her ears, and Su Jian was surprised that Zhan Lei was still there. After returning to the mansion, Zhan Lei left. She thought Zhan Lei had returned to the yard by himself, and didn't you want to follow her? But... Zhan Lei
After all, he was the young master in the house, and he actually asked her if she wanted to eat meat. The key is that she didn't do anything at the moment, she just ordered Goose Yellow to make the most primitive lard. Suddenly, she thought of something, Zhan Lei was not here, and the house
There didn't seem to be any panic, and combined with what Zhan Lei said on the carriage, combined with the current situation... Zhan Lei's life in the mansion must be bad.
They are treating their children badly.
After all, this kid is still the young master of the house!
Suddenly, Su Jian frowned. The people in this house were so shameless, and the general he had never met before! He actually allowed others to bully his younger brother. He was not a good person.
"Xiao Lei, come here."
Su Jian grabbed Zhan Lei's hand and saw that Zhan Lei had been staring at the white meat in the pot, with saliva even secreting from the corners of his lips. She pulled him back.
Zhan Lei followed Su Jian back, feeling sad. It seemed that his sister-in-law was unwilling to give him meat, just like everyone else in the mansion.
"Although the oil won't explode when frying the oil residue, just in case, don't get hurt."
Hearing this, Zhan Lei's eyes became bright again, but he was still unsure. When he looked at Su Jian, he only heard:
"The fried dregs are almost done, my sister-in-law will make sugared dregs for you to eat."
When Zhan Lei heard this, he smiled instantly. He looked at Su Jian for a moment: "Sister-in-law, do you really want to eat it for me?"
Su Jian looked at Zhan Lei's shining eyes, and then at his smiling face. She was moved in her heart, and asked Goose Huang to help her put some cooked oil residue into a bowl. Then she took some brown sugar she bought today, and simply
After mixing the oil residue and brown sugar evenly, he handed it to Zhan Lei: "Don't eat too much, we will eat braised pork and sweet and sour pork later, that is the most delicious.
Zhan Lei swallowed a sip of saliva and subconsciously reached out to take it, but thought of something and looked at Su Jian cautiously. Seeing that Su Jian really allowed him to eat, he put the sugar-coated oil residue in
in the mouth.
Crunchy.
Crispy and delicious.
"Sister-in-law, it's delicious, it's so delicious."
Su Jian saw that Zhan Lei ate deliciously and his cheeks became bulging from chewing oil residue, like a little hamster. She reached out and wiped the corners of Zhan Lei's lips.
It was just some oil residue, but Zhan Lei seemed to have never eaten it. Are these people really widows of soldiers? If so, how could they treat a child so harshly?
Su Jian's peripheral vision glanced at Liniang who was lighting the fire and Mrs. Li in the distance, and she felt fierce in her heart.
"Madam, you bought a lot of meat today, and I think there's a lot of oil left in it. I wonder if I can give it to you to taste?"
"Aunt Li!" Liniang scolded, looking at Mrs. Li reproachfully: "I don't need your help in the kitchen, get out."
Mrs. Li opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but looking at Liniang, she still left the kitchen, but her eyes still glanced at the oil residue in the pot from time to time.
Forget it, she couldn't eat it, so she tried her best to smell it more. Thinking like this, Mrs. Li took a few deep breaths.
When Liniang saw Mrs. Li leaving, she quickly looked at Su Jian. She saw that Su Jian's expression was as usual, as if what happened just now did not affect her, and she just continued to light the fire quietly.
To make braised pork, you must first stir-fry the fat and lean meat until golden, and then add the seasonings. It was a pity that the seasonings in the kitchen, plus what she bought later, only included salt and cinnamon leaves.
, green onions and ginger, not to mention soy sauce, star anise and the like...but it's better than nothing.
Sweet and sour pork would have no soul without vinegar, but Su Jian bought a few lemons, and adding them to the tenderloin might replace the vinegar.
If it were placed in modern times, Su Jian would definitely have no expectations for such food. But it was different here, especially when she had eaten porridge and side dishes for three days in a row, so when she smelled the aroma of meat, she was a little bit...
Can't wait to taste it.
Zhan Lei couldn't help but swallow his saliva and looked straight at the braised pork and sweet and sour pork loin coming out of the stove.
Goose Huang looked at the meat she cooked, it was golden and brilliant. Was such beautiful food really made by her?
"Ehuang, I'll go and close the door. You can wait on Madam and dine here."
The door is closed for dining, but you still have to eat in the kitchen?
Su Jian looked at Liniang thoughtfully, only to see Liniang swallow her saliva, walk out quickly, and close the kitchen door.
strangeness.
"Young lady is the general's wife, how can you just eat in the kitchen?" Gouhuang complained.
"Okay, set the dishes and chopsticks." Su Jian didn't care where she would eat, but Liniang's behavior aroused suspicion. After a brief thought, she decided to go out and take a look.
