Antique food: The general dotes on his lucky wife

The spicy hot pot has received unprecedented praise in Chen's family. Everyone didn't even have enough after two meals and actually wanted to continue eating.

But Chen Xi really had enough, so she said: "It's okay to eat hot pot, but we have to change the taste tomorrow and don't eat spicy food anymore!"

As soon as Chen Qi heard the change of taste, his saliva immediately flowed out.

"Sister, are there other flavors of hot pot?"

"Yes, such as pickled cabbage hot pot, tomato hot pot, clear soup hot pot, etc..."

"I want to eat, I want to eat!"

"Okay, let's have tomato hotpot tomorrow!"

So on the third day, while the Chen family was doing business, they all had discussions from time to time. They were curious about what Chen Xi said the tomato hotpot they ate today tasted like.

Chen Dajiang was chatting and laughing with Chen Qi when he suddenly looked up and saw a man wearing a bamboo hat standing next to him.

This familiar outfit made him immediately recognize that these two people were the two young generals who had gone to Chen's house to buy the steamed bun recipe!

Chen Dajiang shook his hands and quickly came out from behind the counter with Chen Qi.

"Chen Dajiang, the common man, has met the two generals. The common man was negligent just now. Please don't blame the two generals."

Several customers who were buying steamed buns in the store immediately calmed down when they heard "General" and poked their heads in this direction.

Huo Xianjun smiled and said gently: "What's the blame? We just came in."

Lin Changqing asked: "What is the tomato hot pot you just talked about?"

Chen Dajiang bowed and replied: "Xiao Qi's sister told me how to eat the pot, but this is the first time we have heard of it and have never seen it before. We don't know what's going on!"

When Lin Changqing heard this, he immediately became interested: "We will also go to your house to see you later."

"Then please take a moment, two generals.

Wait, we're closing the store right now. "

Lin Changqing raised his hand: "No, it's not like we don't know about your family. We'll go by ourselves. If you need to do business, do business. Let's go!" After that, he turned around and left.

Chen Dajiang was so nervous that he didn't know how to release his hands and feet, so he could only look at Huo Xianjun blankly.

Huo Xianjun said quickly: "Actually, we also have something to discuss with Miss Chen. You can continue doing business and don't worry about us." After that, he quickly left and caught up with Lin Changqing.

After the two people left, the rest of the Chen family gathered around Chen Dajiang and asked the two generals and nobles what they had come for. Chen Dajiang told them again. In the end, everyone was still worried and unanimously decided to let Chen Erhai go back.

The second eldest child in the family is the smartest one. The two generals said they wanted to discuss something with Xiao Xi. With him by their side, he could help come up with ideas and give Xiao Xi someone to discuss with.

Chen Erhai did not dare to delay and hurriedly drove the bullock cart to leave.

After Lin Changqing and Huo Xianjun left Pier Street, they rode all the way to Shanghe Village.

Horses are rare things. Lin Changqing and Huo Xianjun didn't bring the horses into the village last time, but this time they knew the place and rode directly to the door of Chen's house.

At this time, Chen Xi was preparing today's ingredients in the house.

There is a little difference in the choice of ingredients between eating tomato hot pot and eating spicy hot pot.

For example, for spicy hot pot, the beef and mutton can be sliced ​​and rinsed directly. But when eating tomato hot pot, Chen Xi still likes to eat fish balls and shrimp balls.

With a large family, more ingredients need to be prepared. Chen Xi, Chen's father and Chen's mother spent an entire morning just preparing the ingredients.

Chen Xi was chopping fish when he suddenly heard his neighbor Yang outside.

The aunt shouted in a loud voice: "Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi, you have a visitor coming to your house, riding a big horse!"

When Chen Xi looked up, he saw two men wearing bamboo hats walking in.

This dress up!

Sure enough, after the two men took off their bamboo hats, Chen Xi immediately recognized that they were the two young generals from the Xishan Military Camp!

Chen Xi quickly came out of the kitchen.

"General Lin, General Huo, the two great masters are here. The Chen family is far away to welcome you."

Aunt Yang, who was watching the excitement at the gate, quickly retracted her head when she heard that these two handsome young men were actually generals.

I have long heard that the Chen family has a relationship with the military masters in the military camp. It turns out that it is true, they are two generals!

Be good! The Chen family is incredible!

Lin Changqing heard this little village girl talking politely, glanced at her, and then started to look around in the yard.

Chen Xi didn't know why General Lin was so curious about her yard every time. He couldn't stop looking around the last time he came.

She turned her attention to the other talkative General Huo: "I wonder if the two generals are here this time for the hot pot base?"

Lin Changqing instantly turned to stare at her, and Huo Xianjun also looked surprised and asked: "Could it be that Miss Chen is good at fortune telling? How come she can guess so accurately!"

Chen Xi smiled and said: "After thinking about it, it must be something closely related to the officers and men in the army that allowed the two generals to take time out of their busy schedules. And the things that have something to do with my family, besides Baozi, are the records of our trip yesterday. The bank clerk gave Liao Qianhu the jar of hot pot base. Presumably the two generals have tasted it and found it simple and convenient to use. Do you want to promote it in the army? "

Lin Changqing stared at Chen Xi with twinkling eyes

After a few moments, Huo Xianjun smiled and touched his palms.

"It turns out that Miss Chen is still a female Zhuge!"

Chen Xi smiled and rolled his eyes, "General Huo really embarrassed me. What kind of female Zhuge am I? In fact, my original intention of giving Liao Qianhu the hot pot base was to repay the two generals and Liao Qianhu for maintaining our bun shop. Kindness. When the weather is cold, the hot pot base can be directly boiled into soup and food. When the weather is hot and you don’t want to eat boiled food, the hot pot base can also be used to stir-fry to add flavor. I have also written the recipe of the hot pot base to Liao Qian I’m registered, I wonder if I didn’t write it clearly somewhere?”

Lin Changqing finally said: "You wrote it very clearly. It's a pity that Butcher Liao started to be lazy again. Unless he was capable of preparing the quantity needed by the soldiers on the day of winter, we came here to ask Miss Chen about you." Is there any way to prepare the hot pot base ingredients needed by three thousand soldiers on the Beginning of Winter in five days?"

Chen Xi blinked, never expecting this to be the reason!

The last time she cooked a pot of hot pot base, it took nearly a day. Calculated, it was enough to feed a hundred or ten people at most.

Chen Xi couldn't help but frown: "I'm really sorry, we can't do it!"

Huo Xianjun said aloud: "Miss Chen, think of a way. The base you made is really delicious when eaten in a pot. On weekdays, the soldiers have heavy training tasks and eat simply. It's not the beginning of winter soon. I want the soldiers to be well." Eat a good meal to continue the hard training in winter.”

Chen Xi smiled bitterly: "General Huo, it's not my fault. It took me a whole day to make a pot of base that day. It was only enough for a hundred people to feed a meal. It took 3000 people.

Even if we don't stop day and night, it will take half a month, but it will be the beginning of winter in five days, and I really can't do it! "

For a moment, Huo Xianjun also frowned and said nothing.

He also knew that this matter was very difficult. If it were simple, Liao Dashan would not refuse outright.

Suddenly, Lin Changqing on the side said: "I heard that you are going to make tomato hot pot today. Is it ready?"

Chen Xi was stunned: "Well, not yet."

"Then we'll do it together!"

Chen Xi: "..."
