A lucky wife born again from a farm family

Chapter 107 Oil and Sauce【2】

When Shang Xiucai heard that making soybean oil was labor-intensive, he did not back down. In Dachu, only poor families lack labor. For wealthy families, there are crowds of servants and there is no shortage of labor.

Although Shang Xiucai was a scholar, he was not a person obsessed with learning. In addition to learning, he was also interested in miscellaneous studies. He was very curious about the skills of making new things.

But it was the property of the Gu family after all. He was embarrassed to ask too detailed questions, but he was really itchy, so he said to Gu Jinli: "Good boy, these two are good things. If you want to do it, Uncle Shang will definitely help you. "

Gu Jinli laughed when he heard this. Sure enough, she was right. Shang Xiucai heard about soybean oil and soy sauce. Although he was very excited, he did not ask her to write down the recipe and give it to him, and asked him to find someone to make it. Instead, he said that he would help her make it. These two things.

Third Grandpa and Gu Dashan were used to Gu Jinli making weird things. They didn't say much, but seeing Shang Xiucai's excitement, they couldn't help but worry: "This soybean oil and soy sauce are so good, will it cause trouble for us? "

After what happened with the tofu recipe, this is what they are most worried about now.

Rather than getting rich, what they want more is for their family to be safe.

Shang Xiucai smiled and said: "Uncle Gu, Brother Gu, you don't have to worry about this. My father-in-law can still speak in Tianfu County."

His father-in-law is not only powerful in Tianfu County, but also has some connections in the military because he is from the army. Therefore, if he wants to protect the Gu family and the soybean oil and soy sauce, he can still do it.

not to mention……

"This thing hasn't been made yet. Let's wait until the child makes it."

When the third grandfather and Gu Dashan heard this, they felt relieved. They originally wanted to stop Gu Jinli from doing such eye-catching things, but they relaxed at this moment and said, "Okay, let the children do it by themselves first. It's done." Besides, forget it if you don’t succeed.”

Gu Jinli was very happy when she saw that Third Grandpa and Gu Dashan agreed with her to make soy sauce. To be honest, this soybean oil and soy sauce is more profitable than tofu.

If she wants to grow medicinal materials, she has to buy land and medicinal seeds, which cost a lot of money. It would take at least three years to harvest valuable medicinal materials, so making money by growing medicinal materials was very slow. She had to do other things to make money.

Shang Xiucai asked Gu Jinli some more about making soybean oil and soy sauce. The more he listened, the more interested he became. He wished he could see soybean oil and soy sauce now.

Gu Jinli told him over and over again, and Shang Xiucai didn't stop asking questions until old Yan came to help with cooking.

Gu Jinli breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect Shang Xiucai to be so curious about these new things.

Gu Yumei was sitting in the yard talking with Jiang and her daughter. She vaguely heard something about sauce, and was very curious. Gu Jinli thought of something new and was talking to Shang Xiucai.

She wanted to go over and listen, but her second aunt told her to please the scholar's wife, so that she could find a good wife to marry through the scholar's wife, so she had to give up and did not go over to listen.

But she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. Why did Gu Jinli know how to make so many new things?

How great would it be if she could do it too?

Gu Jinli didn't know what Gu Yumei was thinking, and even if he knew it, he wouldn't care. If Gu Yumei dared to do anything, she would dare to let her die.

Gu Jinli followed Lao Yan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to her kitchen to help make a banquet for Shang Xiucai's family.

Gu Jinli thought that Shang Yuanyuan liked sweets, so he cut two kilograms of pork and made a dish of crystal sweet and sour pork; he also shaved off the chicken from a chicken and made a dish of sweet and sour chicken nuggets.

The preparation of these two dishes is very simple. Just break the tendons of the meat, dip it in a layer of flour, roll it into the shape of meatballs or meat cubes, put it into the oil pan and fry it until crispy, then remove it to control the oil, and then Adjust the sweet and sour sauce, put the sweet and sour sauce into the pot and cook until it thickens. Pour in the fried meatballs or meat cubes. Wait until the meatballs or meat cubes are coated with the sweet and sour sauce before serving.

Since several families would come to stay with them today and there were many people eating, Gu Jinli cut another large piece of pork, rolled it in flour, and made two large pots of fried crispy pork.

Then mix two bowls of seasoning spices, one with chili powder and one without. Pour it into the crispy pork and stir evenly with chopsticks. Two pots of crispy, fresh and spicy fried crispy pork are ready.

Mrs. Chen couldn't help but swallow her saliva when she saw the crispy fried pork. She couldn't help but grab a handful of fried pork and stuff it into her mouth. While eating, she said, "It's fragrant, crispy, and delicious."

The third grandma couldn’t stand it and scolded Mr. Chen angrily: “You have been reincarnated as a starving ghost. Have you been starved all this time? Why are you still so virtuous that you haven’t eaten anything!”

This is the niece-in-law. If she were her daughter-in-law, she would be mad at Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen didn't reply and just ate in silence.

Gu Jinli said calmly next to him: "I deliberately made too much of these two pots of fried crispy pork. I wanted to give them to several aunts and uncles to take home after entertaining Uncle Shang and his family."

She raised her head and grinned at Mrs. Chen: "Auntie, finish your share."

"What?" Mrs. Chen almost choked to death when she heard this. Her flesh ached so much that she licked her face and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, aunt is just helping me taste it, not stealing it. You have to give me a share." Crispy meat." This meat was so delicious that she couldn't eat enough. She had to take it home.

Gu Jinli didn't even look at her. He turned around and took the soaked rice to Luo's house to grind it into rice milk. He then returned to the kitchen and took out a flat-bottomed pottery bowl. He put the rice milk into the pottery bowl and steamed the rice milk over water. , in just two minutes, the rice milk solidified into rice noodles.

After steaming like this for two quarters of an hour, two plates of rice noodles were steamed.

She cut the rice noodles into finger-widths with a kitchen knife that had been boiled in boiling water, chopped some minced meat, put in fresh minced meat sauce, stir-fried the minced meat, poured it into two plates of rice noodles, and then put it in the house to plant Pull out a few green onions, chop them into pieces, and sprinkle them into the rice noodles to make a soft, glutinous and chewy southern snack.

Mrs. Chen saw that the rice noodles were very crystal clear and wanted to try a chopstick, but Gu Jinli glared back: "Auntie, you don't want to sell tofu tomorrow."

Mrs. Chen choked and quickly retracted her hand. She didn't have to eat the fresh food, but she had to make money.

Gu Jinli, his third grandmother, and Lao Yan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law worked in the kitchen for an hour, and it wasn't until about noon that the banquet was ready.

And Gu Jinan, Gu Dexing, and Gu Dewang also finished dictating their best words or articles.

Gu Dewang looked at his handwriting and almost cried. It was too ugly. Many words were separated from front to back and top to bottom. No one else could understand it except him.

He wanted his cousin to help him write, but Ah Jiu was watching from the side. When he moved closer to his cousin, Ah Jiu called him with a smile: "Brother Wang."

As if he had done something bad, he immediately retreated, not daring to ask his cousin for help.

After the ink was dry, Ah Jiu put away the words and articles they had written and said, "I will give these three pieces of paper to the master, don't worry."

Gu Dexing was a little disappointed. It turned out that he didn't just watch and accept the apprentice on the spot, but now that he wants to become a disciple, he can only do this.

"Eat." Third Grandma shouted, taking out the steaming dishes one after another on wooden trays.

Because the official family was very particular, they divided the table into men and women. However, the place in the house was small, so the women ate in the main room, and the men could only eat in the yard.

Fortunately, it is noon now, it is relatively warm, and there is a fire in the yard. It is not that uncomfortable to eat in the yard.
