After escaping from famine, the evil stepmother was pampered by the villain Zaizai Tuan
Chapter 175: Entertaining guests can’t be too simple
Four little cubs were chattering around Li Yuanzhi.
Li Yuanzhi lowered his head and smiled and agreed one by one. Although he was happy, he was still a little confused.
After we parted ways in the morning, didn't we not see each other for half a day?
Are the children being too enthusiastic?
Jiang Xiaohua then came out of the kitchen and greeted with a smile, "You're back?"
"Yes." Li Yuanzhi responded, his expression turning serious again, "I have something to tell you."
Jiang Xiaohua walked towards Li Yuanzhi.
Before he could speak, a figure suddenly walked past and shouted: "Brother Li!"
Jiang Xiaohua took two steps back and looked at the touching scene of brothers recognizing each other in astonishment.
Jiang Yuanheng hugged Li Yuanzhi and patted him hard on the shoulder, "Brother Li! Are you back?"
"If I knew you were coming back today, I would have gone to the city gate to greet you!"
“Let’s set up a table at Wanzhen Building in Dongshi!”
Li Yuanzhi's face was full of despair, "Let go."
"I came back the day before yesterday, not today."
Jiang Yuanheng was stunned, and his smile gradually disappeared, "What? The day before yesterday?"
Li Yuanzhi took this opportunity to break free from his arms and said, "Yeah."
"I've been busy since I got back, and I haven't had time to tell you yet."
He passed the crowd and walked towards the main room.
Jiang Yuanheng came to his senses and caught up with him with a smile, "It was only the day before yesterday, so it's not too late for me to come."
"But," he looked at Jiang Xiaohua with some complaints.
"Ms. Jiang didn't say anything to me just now."
Jiang Xiaohua spread her hands innocently, "I wanted to say it, but I kept getting interrupted."
"Then you read Guang'er's writing with such concentration. How could I have the nerve to disturb you?"
Jiang Yuanheng grinned and nodded, "Yes!"
Everyone entered the house and took their seats.
Jiang Yuanheng dragged Li Yuanzhi to talk about things. He hadn't seen him for more than ten days, and he seemed to have endless things to say.
While Li Yuanzhi was drinking tea, he took the time to glance at Jiang Xiaohua.
Jiang Xiaohua understood that what Li Yuanzhi wanted to say just now should be said in private.
So she stood up and said, "I'm going to cook."
"Master Jiang, why don't you also stay and eat together?"
Jiang Yuanheng said happily, "Okay, after the steamed buns we had on the way."
"I haven't tasted Mrs. Jiang's craftsmanship yet."
Jiang Xiaohua broke into a cold sweat.
She was polite, but she didn't expect this guy to really want to eat here.
Jiang Xiaohua could only smile and said, "I didn't know Mr. Jiang was coming today, so I didn't prepare anything."
"It's just home-cooked food, as long as Young Master Jiang doesn't dislike it."
Jiang Yuanheng said cheerfully, "It doesn't matter, I can eat whatever you want!"
Jiang Xiaohua had no choice but to go out and walk to the kitchen, thinking about what to eat.
Even though I said I would eat home-cooked meals.
But Jiang Yuanheng is a guest after all, so he should pay more attention to the way of hospitality.
Jiang Xiaohua did not purchase ingredients in advance, which was not a problem.
What the cooking class is best at is adapting to local conditions.
As long as there is stock at home, she can cook a table of meals.
The fresh vegetables, apart from onions and ginger, are only two heads of Chinese cabbage.
The rest are some kinds of dried vegetables and pickled vegetables that are commonly eaten at home.
Non-vegetarian food includes dried bacon and eggs.
Jiang Xiaohua also found a pack of dried shrimps and a piece of frozen tofu that had been frozen outside yesterday.
The four little Doudings all came over to help.
Liu Yong looked at the ingredients in front of him and wondered, "What kind of dishes can these be made of?"
Jiang Xiaohua has already started to take action, "The simplest thing is to make four dishes and one soup."
"But since there are so many of us eating, each dish must be served in a very large portion."
Steam egg custard with scallion oil, steam the mixed egg liquid into custard, and pour the secret scallion oil from ginger florets out of the pot.
Stir-fry diced bamboo shoots in salted bean paste, soak dried bamboo shoots, and stir-fry peas boiled in salt with sweet and sour sauce.
Steamed cabbage rolls, mince the soaked dried shrimps and frozen tofu together, add an egg, chopped green onion, salt, spice powder and other seasonings, then beat vigorously, and the filling is ready.
Only take the leaves of the cabbage, blanch them in hot water until soft, spread the fillings evenly, roll them up, and steam them in a pot.
To make the porridge mixed with silver thread, use the remaining cabbage sticks and cut them into thin strips, add the chopped porridge pickles, stir them with hot oil of Sichuan peppercorns, and season with red vinegar and other seasonings.
Pickled fresh food is the most important dish, it is both a dish and a soup.
Originally, in addition to bamboo shoots and bacon, there were several other main ingredients.
But Jiang Xiaohua only has these two kinds now, so she made a simple version of stewed bacon with dried bamboo shoots.
Simmer slowly in a casserole until the richness of the bacon and the sweetness of the bamboo shoots merge into the soup, and the soup gradually turns white.
At the dinner table, Jiang Yuanheng ate happily and praised repeatedly, "This bamboo shoot is so appetizing!"
"And this Yinsi, it's my first time to eat raw cabbage! It tastes very refreshing!"
"The cabbage rolls are also delicious! Oh my, this soup is amazing, the bacon is also very fragrant and not salty at all!"
Jiang Xiaohua said with a smile, "It's a pity that I didn't have time to buy good wine."
"I can only make do with the sorghum soju I use for cooking."
Jiang Yuanheng took a sip of soup and drank a sip of wine, and said "ha" happily.
"If you don't give in, sometimes you have to drink this sorghum roast to be happy!"
Li Yuanzhi looked sideways, "You should drink less. There is no place for you to stay overnight when you are drunk."
However, Jiang Yuanheng forcibly put his arm on Li Yuanzhi's shoulders and clinked glasses with him, "I have a good drinker."
"With such delicious food and wine, Brother Li, please don't bring up the spoiler. Come, let's drink!"
Li Yuanzhi drank the wine in the cup without changing his expression.
Jiang Yuanheng was very happy, "Brother Li is so heroic!"
Jiang Xiaohua had seen Li Yuanzhi's drinking capacity. When she stayed overnight in the village, the male owner of the house was drunk, but Li Yuanzhi was fine.
But Li Yuanzhi never drinks alcohol, so Jiang Xiaohua still doesn't know what the upper limit of his drinking is.
Jiang Xiaohua glanced at Jiang Yuanheng with some worry and advised: "Master Jiang, eat more vegetables."
Jiang Yuanheng agreed repeatedly, "Okay, okay, I will definitely eat more of such good food."
He was indeed dropping his chopsticks very quickly, but his wine glass was not idle either.
The four little diced beans were full first.
Liu Guang asked, "Uncle Jiang, you haven't said anything yet, what do you think after reading my handwriting?"
At this time, Jiang Yuanheng's cheeks were flushed and his eyes were blurred.
He slammed the table and said loudly, "Okay!"
"Although I can't say it's a good calligraphy, it's still far from good, but it's improved than before!"
Liu Guang smiled and said, "You can say that my handwriting is not good, but it shows that I am not drunk yet."
Jiang Yuanheng chuckled twice, "You kid, let me test your Uncle Jiang!"
He went to get the wine glass again, but found it empty.
Li Yuanzhi held the wine glass and said disgustedly, "You are drunk, stop drinking."
Jiang Yuanheng refused to accept it and stood up to grab the wine glass, "I'm not drunk! Have two more drinks."
Li Yuanzhi dodged easily.
Then he calmly said: "Down."
There was just a pop, and Jiang Yuanheng lay limply on the table.
Jiang Xiaohua and the children looked at this scene in shock.
Then he looked at Li Yuanzhi in surprise, "How did you know he was going to fall?"
