Chapter 138
138. Set off for the Imperial Capital III
After packing her things, Lin Qingxi packed up her small suitcase and baggage, put the two luggages at the end of the kang, and just took them with her when she left.
"Let's go! Let's go to the kitchen and make some mushroom sauce, and then bring it to the Imperial City for my brother and the others," Lin Qingxi turned to look at Zhou Mingming and said with a smile.
"Okay! There are still some bacon hanging in the cellar. Let's make some meat sauce and bring it over!" Zhou Mingming knew that the life of people in the city was not easy. It was not that they had no money to buy, but that they had no supplies to sell. In the countryside,
Fortunately, we can sneak up the mountain to find food.
"Okay, then I will make more this time and bring some to the army for you to eat. Let's go to the river to catch some small fish in the afternoon! Then I will fry them and take them to the car to eat, and I will make some miscellaneous fish for you.
Eat it with sauce," Lin Qingxi said with a smile. Thinking of the fried fish, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva and wanted to eat it.
"Okay," Zhou Mingming heard the sound of swallowing at the tip of his ears, and there was a smile in his eyes. He didn't expect that his daughter-in-law, who had always been calm, would also have this side, which was inexplicably cute.
Lin Qingxi looked at her watch and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock. She planned to eat her lunch first and then make the meat sauce. This meant that she and Zhou Mingming had eaten late, otherwise they would have been hungry by now.
"Brother understand, help me put the fire on and I'll steam the rice," Lin Qingxi said as she walked into the cellar. When she came out of the cellar, she took a handful of dried mushrooms, dried beans, eight eggs and a
When the bacon came up, Lin Qingxi saw that Zhou Mingming had already put the fire on, and she immediately steamed the rice.
"Brother Understand, you go to the field to pick some peppers and beans, and remember to pick some green vegetables." Lin Qingxi said as she soaked the dried mushrooms and dried beans in warm water, and then sliced the bacon into slices.
When Zhou Mingzhu picked the vegetables she wanted, she beat four eggs, added water, stirred them evenly, and then steamed them with the steamed rice.
After steaming for about ten minutes, Lin Qingxi took out the steamed egg custard and rice and put them on the stove. Then she cleaned the pot and started making egg fried rice. However, this time the egg fried rice was added with bacon slices and shiitake mushrooms.
Ding, chili and green vegetables are stir-fried together to form a hodgepodge.
In addition to fried rice with eggs, Lin Qingxi also fried dried beans, bacon slices and fried chili peppers. After she finished lunch, she asked Zhou Mingming to call Zhou's mother and Zhou Mingmin to go home for dinner.
The hodgepodge egg fried rice was liked by everyone, and the egg custard was enthusiastically loved by the three children. After dinner, Zhou Mingming took the three children to catch fish in the river. Zhou's father, Zhou's mother and Zhou Mingmin went back to their houses.
After taking a nap, Lin Qingxi couldn't sleep, so she soaked the dried mushrooms, cut the bacon into cubes, and stayed in the kitchen to start making bacon sauce and mushroom sauce.
Lin Qingxi worked hard for almost two hours before making bacon sauce and mushroom sauce. She filled the two sauces in wooden basins and placed them in the main room to cool. She covered the pot and sat in the yard to wait.
Zhou knew they were coming back.
It was almost three o'clock when Zhou Mingren and the others had not returned yet, so she went to the health center alone. When she arrived at the health center, she happened to see Zhou Mingren making medicinal powder alone.
"Mingren, how is your medicinal powder going? How is the effect?" Lin Qingxi saw that Zhou Mingren was serious and asked directly.
"Teacher, you are here. I always feel that the effect of the hemostatic powder I made is average and the speed of stopping bleeding is very slow." Zhou Mingren's tone was full of bitterness. He didn't know why, but the effect of the hemostatic powder he made was different every time.
The level goes up and down a lot.
"It's okay, just practice more and you'll be fine. According to the formula I gave you, you have to master the weight of each medicinal material. You still have a lot of theoretical knowledge, but there is little practical operation. It takes time to settle. After two years, I
I’m going to the Imperial Capital today, do you want to follow me to the Imperial Capital to see the world?”
Lin Qingxi thought for a while, Zhou Mingren would be her great apprentice from now on, and if nothing unexpected happened, she still wanted to train Zhou Mingren well.
"Is it okay? Teacher, can I come with you?" Zhou Mingren looked at Lin Qingxi eagerly, his eyes full of expectation. That is the imperial capital, the heart of the motherland, a place that everyone yearns for.
"Okay, you can pack a few sets of clothes, toiletries and dry food. I will prepare them. You have an afternoon train ticket the day after tomorrow. You can go directly to my house after lunch." Lin Qingxi nodded. This apprentice still has a bright future.
.
"Okay, teacher, thank you," Zhou Mingren said gratefully. It's great. He can also go to the imperial capital to climb the Great Wall and see the Forbidden City.
"You're welcome. You will be the greatest help to me by being a good doctor in the future." Lin Qingxi shook her head. Since she has become her teacher, she will teach her disciples well as long as they are willing to learn.
Throughout the afternoon, Lin Qingxi took the trouble to correct Zhou Mingren's wrong steps in making medicinal powder and taught him very patiently.
The next day, Lin Qingxi came back to make the miscellaneous fish sauce. She kept half of it to eat at home, and packed the other half, planning to take it to the imperial capital to eat.
In addition to a change of clothes for herself and Zhou Mingming, as well as a bag containing toiletries, Lin Qingxi's luggage also contained a large sack. The sack contained all the soil that the Zhou family and the old Zhou family asked her to bring to the imperial capital for Lin Qingping.
As for specialties, she also added a lot of things herself, including the air-dried rabbit, air-dried chicken and bacon she made some time ago, as well as dried bamboo shoots, dried mushrooms, dried beans and other home-produced products.
Lin Qingxi got up at dawn on the fourth day. When she got up, Zhou's mother was already preparing breakfast in the kitchen. The breakfast was quite rich. Zhou's mother cooked noodles and put two eggs in each bowl.
Cut a few slices of bacon and put a few leaves of green vegetables.
After finishing the noodles, Zhou's mother put down the bowl and started preparing dry food for the car. Starting with Zhou's mother, Zhou Mingming and the children could make do with the food, but her daughter-in-law couldn't, and the daughter-in-law had to eat better.
So, Zhou's mother got busy and took Zhou Mingmin to make dumplings and steamed buns in the kitchen. The weather was hot, and meat buns and meat-filled dumplings would spoil easily if left undisturbed, so she made two-faced dumplings stuffed with pickled cabbage and
White bread filled with green beans.
Sixty dumplings were cooked, just enough for two ceramic cups, and sixty-six steamed buns were made, which meant that they had a smooth journey. Each bun had a lot of fillings, and Lin Qingxi could eat just one. Zhou knew that
Eat at most three to make you full.
After the dumplings were cooked, the steamed buns were steamed. After the steamed buns were steamed, Zhou's mother began to make lunch for themselves. Lin Qingxi ate the newly cooked dumplings. What she couldn't finish was given to Zhou Mingming. Zhou Mingming didn't eat it.
When you're full, let's have some food.
After finishing lunch, Lin Qingxi and Zhou Mingming took the village's ox cart with their three children and Zhou Mingren, and Zhou's father drove them to Qinghe City in the ox cart.
