Siheyuan: With a system in place, you don’t need to worry in times of famine

October is the golden autumn and it is the harvest season.

The Mid-Autumn Festival has also arrived at this time, and everyone will buy a mooncake for family reunion.

When Sha Zhu came back with the mooncakes, Ye Fei was a little shocked.

It was the first time he had seen such a big mooncake. It was round and thick, and it was obviously the real thing.

"During the Mid-Autumn Festival, our family is reunited.

I'll go cook some dishes..."

Sha Zhu put down the mooncake in his hand and went out to cook.

Zhao Ying's belly was already noticeable at this time. She leaned back on the sofa, sitting side by side with He Yushui, watching TV and eating fruit.

Ye Fei was using a juicer to squeeze juice. There was no need to worry about the fruit. He quickly squeezed two glasses of orange juice and gave one to Zhao Ying and one to He Yushui.

He himself held a glass of watermelon juice, the main point of which was to squeeze whatever people liked to drink.

If other people in the courtyard saw this, they would definitely scold Ye Fei for being a prodigal.

Such a good fruit, how come it was squeezed into juice? !

When Niu Zhiwen came in with gifts, this was the pleasant scene he saw.

"I knew you would enjoy it, but I didn't expect you to enjoy it this much."

The door was open, and Niu Zhiwen went in directly carrying his things.

"Director Niu..."

"It's the Mid-Autumn Festival now, so I thought I'd walk around more."

Niu Zhiwen said this casually, and then sat down on the stool without any hesitation.

Although the two of them are partners, Ye Fei has helped him so much.

It would be fine on normal days, but during festivals, he would definitely try to get closer to them.

"You... I haven't even been to your place yet, but you're here first.

Tea, juice, or wine?"

Ye Fei smiled and asked by the way.

"Tea."

Niu Zhiwen made his choice without hesitation:

"When people get older, they love tea..."

"It just so happens that I got some good tea a while ago."

Ye Fei turned around and made a pot of tea and poured a cup for Niu Zhiwen.

"This, this is West Lake Longjing?!"

Seeing Ye Fei nodded, Niu Zhiwen became even more excited:

“I didn’t expect to be able to drink such delicious West Lake Longjing tea here.

Tea is in short supply in the market now. It is said that the reduction in tea production across the country has led to a shortage of supply.

I haven’t been able to drink such good tea for a long time…”

When Ye Fei heard this, his mind moved, as if it was indeed the case.

Due to the reduction in domestic tea production, the Golden Gourd Tribute Tea was finally broken into pieces and sieved, mixed with tea that could buy 2 taels for 2 cents, and sold.

You know, in the end, the Golden Gourd Tribute Tea became a national cultural relic, and you can’t drink it even if you want to.

It is such a pity that the premium golden pumpkin tribute tea is wasted like this.

He would also like to try it if he has the chance.

"Hey, Lao Niu, how come you're here earlier than me?"

As the two were talking, another voice was heard at the door. They looked over and saw Du Chenggong walking in carrying large and small bags.

"Haha, I just got here too."

"Hey, such a nice tea aroma, what kind of tea are you drinking?!"

Du Chenggong smelled the fragrance of tea. He sniffed his nose and the rich tea aroma filled his nose.

He immediately stared at the teapot on the table, his eyes shining.

"West Lake Longjing, Director Du, please take a seat."

Ye Fei poured Du Chenggong a cup of tea. Du Chenggong took a sip and closed his eyes in satisfaction.

“Good tea, really good tea!”

"Lao Du is a senior tea lover. He likes drinking tea more than I do..."

He Yushui came in with a plate of freshly washed fruits, smiled, and put the fruits aside.

Judging from the way they look, they probably can’t eat the fruit.

After putting the fruit away, He Yushui walked out.

As early as when Niu Zhiwen arrived, Zhao Ying got up and went back to her own home. He Yushui washed the fruit and went to the kitchen to help, but was driven out by Sha Zhu:

"You go stay with your sister-in-law, I can handle it on my own."

Ever since Zhao Ying became pregnant, Sha Zhu has been holding her in the palm of his hand, fearing that she would be lost.

"Okay then, I'll go find my sister-in-law."

He Yushui didn't hesitate any longer, turned around and walked outside. Behind him, Sha Zhu's voice came again:

"Yushui, go ask Xiaokai if he's free. If he is, you can ask him to come over and help me."

"okay."

He Yushui went to the backyard again. Qin Kai was bored and dazed at home. When he heard Sha Zhu asking him to help, he jumped and ran away.

In order to learn cooking from Sha Zhu, his first task after school every time is to finish his homework quickly and be ready at any time.

"Silly brother."

"Now that you are here, go chop the green onions into chopped green onions, chop all the ginger into thin strips, and the chili peppers..."

Sha Zhu was cooking. He just looked up at Qin Kai and gave him a direct order.

After this period of special training, Qin Kai has become quite skilled at cutting small things like green onions and ginger.

At least, it's not that ugly.

"Today we are going to make braised chicken. First, put the chicken pieces in the pot and blanch them..."

Sha Zhu would speak for every step he took, and he would also tell clearly how much seasoning to use.

The cooking is simple and the most important thing is the taste.

When adding seasonings, the order and amount must be accurate. Putting more or less will not work.

When it comes to teaching Qin Kai, Sha Zhu is completely open-minded.

Although Qin Kai is a young boy, he is honest, loyal, and thoughtful.

Grandma Meng has worked hard all her life, and finally saw Qin Kai grow up and gradually be able to help with some chores at home. She is also happy to see Qin Kai grow up quickly and truly support the entire family.

Every time Sha Zhu said something, Qin Kai would take out a pen and a notebook to write it down. If he came across a word he didn't know how to write, he would replace it with a simple symbol.

When Shazhu looked at it, it was full of circles, squares, triangles, and five-pointed stars. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he pointed to one of the small dots and asked:

"what do you mean?"

"I can't write Sichuan peppercorns, but they are all small and round..."

“What about this box?”

"It's rock sugar. I can write the word 'ice', but the word 'sugar' is too difficult to write, so I just used a graphic instead..."

"Very good, the notes are very complete. It would be better if all these densely packed patterns were replaced with words."

As Sha Zhu spoke, he picked up a pen and wrote the correct words on the pattern.

Qin Kai was stunned, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes, and he blurted out subconsciously:

"Brother Shazhu, you can actually write so many words?"

"As a qualified chef, these hands can not only cook, but also write, do you understand?!"

Sha Zhu reached out and flicked Qin Kai's head, causing him to grimace in pain and hurriedly cover his forehead with his hand.

Wow, why is Brother Shazhu so strong?

It hurts.
