Every time I wear a book, I am forced to turn around

Yan Jinyun said wow, this is awesome, and persuaded Wu Shen to let go of the idea of ​​dissection.Well, that is to say, he is talented in righteousness, otherwise he really couldn't be able to veto other people's proposals while praising others.First of all, as Yan Jinyun said, without the support of sophisticated instruments, they cannot do precise research.Secondly, Yan Jinyun just wants to become the No.1 chef in the world, ah no, it’s just the number one beauty in the world, wouldn’t it be good to live in peace?

It just so happened that the out-of-season cherries that Wu Shen planted by the hot spring were ripe, and his servants picked a basket of good ones, and Yan Jinyun took Wu Shen to make candied cherries.These cherries were also brought back from overseas by the chefs, and they were not widely planted, so they are considered rare.There is a row of cherry trees planted here in Huangzhuang, and the royal family has no shortage of this kind of food.

Before making candied cherries, the cherries should be pitted.This is a tricky job, but it is not difficult for experienced hands. Just use a chopstick to insert the cherry from the bottom, and then push it with a little force, and the core will come out from the pedicle.

After that, add sugar and water and boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and cook slowly, the candied cherries are ready.

But the simpler something is, the harder it is to make it the best it can be.To be honest, before Yan Jinyun came to this world, he must have added sugar according to his own taste, directly added tap water, and boiled it directly on the natural gas stove.However, Yan Jinyun has already experienced the experience of this world. According to Mr. Yi's suggestion, there are particulars about how much sugar, what kind of sugar, how much water, what kind of water, and what kind of heat should be added here.

Take the water as an example, whether to add mountain spring water, well water, river water, or snow water stored last winter... Look, it's different!Just choose the mountain spring water, and you don’t need to consider other water. You can continue to subdivide it here. Whether it is the spring water on the mountain behind the Huangzhuang Village or the mountain spring water from the backyard of the Miaofa Temple more than ten miles away. It is also different.The mountain spring water in the backyard of Miaofa Temple will have a little sweetness after entering.

Wu Shen was devastated by this.Water, no matter where the water comes from, isn't it H2O!

"If you think about it carefully, it might make sense to be so particular about it." Yan Jinyun said, "Water from different places contains different minerals, so the food made with different water will have subtle differences. The difference. In fact, the candied cherries can also be added with red wine or white wine instead of water, but then it will become marmalade cherries.”

"You make a lot of sense." Wu Shen nodded in agreement.

Candied cherries are not easy to heat for too long, because this will keep the shape of the cherries.Yan Jinyun felt that the cooking was almost done, so he quickly removed the pot from the stove.He divided it into several jars and just gave it to the juniors to taste.

After the prepared candied cherries cooled down, Yan Jinyun picked one up with a silver stick and put it in his mouth.

wow, perfect!

Yan Jinyun sighed contentedly: "This is the taste of love!"

Wu Shen held back, but couldn't hold back, and complained, "It's as if you've been in love."

Yan Jinyun: "..."

Yan Jinyun pretended not to hear what Wu Shen said, and sighed again, this time more rigorously: "This is the taste of love that is often said by the people of the world!" As he spoke, he picked up another one with a silver pick, and handed it over to him. In front of Wu Shen.

Wu Shen murmured in a low voice: "You mean, can it promote the secretion of phenylethylamine and dopamine? Well, I guess there is more phenylethylamine." Dopamine is something that many people probably don't know. strangeness.As for phenylethylamine, if two people fall in love at first sight and everything is very exciting, the brain will slowly secrete this neurostimulant.

Phenylethylamine can cause extreme highs.Why do men and women in love have to get up early the next day to go to work, but they can still talk on the phone for two hours the night before and stay awake until the early morning?It was phenylethylamine that was at work.But this thing is not entirely beneficial, it will make people focus on love, and then ignore other things.How else can I say that falling in love makes people's IQ drop?You put all your attention on love, so you can't take care of anything else!

"Actually, it's okay not to dissect. As long as we have sophisticated instruments, we can detect the hormone content in the volunteers' bodies after eating the relevant food. Maybe we can understand some of the principles." Wu Shen couldn't help but said.

"But isn't there no instrument..." Yan Jinyun stuffed the cherry into Wu Shen's mouth and blocked his mouth.

Tang House.

Mrs. Tang received a letter from the little sister.That was a good friend she made during her boudoir period, and there was still some kinship between the two of them, the kind of relationship between cousins ​​who were very far away.This cousin is none other than the magistrate's wife that Yan Jinyun befriended at the beginning.In the letter, the magistrate's wife implicitly mentioned Yan Jinyun's ability.Madam Tang's heart skipped a beat.

Mrs. Tang and Tang Gelao have a good husband and wife relationship, and there are not so many messy things.Elder Tang Ge also respected his wife. They, Beijing officials, actually valued her diplomacy, so he would often tell her about outside affairs.So Mrs. Tang naturally knew that Mr. Tang Ge seemed to have plans to use Yan Jinyun and Sun Er as a pair of master and apprentice.

Mrs. Tang invited Mr. Tang Ge over, and smiled and mentioned the letter from her cousin.

Tang Ge was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Really?" He himself had never tasted Yan Jinyun's cooking skills, after all, Yan Jinyun was not the chef they hired.Geng Rong only needed the food made by Sun Er, so Yan Jinyun naturally didn't need to cook.

Mrs. Tang said: "It's too real, how can my cousin make fun of such a thing."

"Madam helped a lot." Elder Tang Ge felt that the food special effects made by Yan Jinyun were very useful, and immediately cupped his hands at Madam Tang, coaxing her into a smile, then turned around and went to the study, and wrote a letter for Yan Jinyun to deliver. go.

The letter immediately reached Yan Jinyun's hands.

Mr. Tang Ge mentioned in his letter that he had a good friend who was very affectionate with his wife. Since his wife passed away in dystocia, he was obsessed with grief and never came out.For this reason, he drank and anesthetized himself all day long, because only when he was drunk could he forget the pain in reality and recall the happiness when he was with his wife back then.However, drinking too much hurts the body!

If you continue to drink like this, this friend will be useless!

Mr. Tang Ge didn’t say it directly, I’ve already heard from my wife’s friend about the food special effects you made, Mr. Gongliang, and I know that you can make a kind of food that reminds people of a beautiful first love.If he said that, wouldn't he be suspected of probing Yan Jinyun's secret?Elder Tang Ge said, I wonder if Mr. Gongliang can make a kind of food to help my friend quit drinking.

Elder Tang Ge also said that no matter whether this matter is accomplished or not, he will thank Yan Jinyun for Yun Yun.

As for Yan Jinyun, his attitude towards Mr. Tang Ge is that he doesn't have to get on Mr. Tang Ge's boat, nor does he have to get Mr. Tang Ge on his boat, but the two of them can keep a low-key tacit understanding. Forge good partnerships.

Therefore, Yan Jinyun directly took out three cans of freshly prepared candied cherries and asked someone to send them to Mr. Tang Ge.

Wu Shen stayed in the capital for two or three years longer, and knew more things than Yan Jinyun. He explained to Yan Jinyun, "If I guessed correctly, the friend mentioned in Tang Yu's letter should be Xue Xingchang. .” Xue Xingchang is a very talented literati.Let's put it this way, his works can be compared with the works of Li Bai and Su Dongpo.

Yan Jinyun knows some of Xue Xingchang's works, after all, this is a famous figure in Luoyang.But I don't know much about Xue Xingchang's personal experience.Only then did he know that Xue Xingchang's wife was his cousin. The two grew up as childhood sweethearts and had a very good relationship.How good is it?His wife had eight children over the course of ten years.

After all, there is no particularly effective contraceptive measure at this time.When two people are in a good relationship, they can't help themselves, and Xue Xingchang's wife may be prone to pregnancy, so if they can't help themselves, they will inevitably become pregnant.At this time, the emphasis was on having more children and more blessings, but most of the eight children died young, and Xue Xingchang was unwilling to take concubines... Probably this was also the reason why his wife kept giving birth.

But how can a woman give birth continuously?Having one child would be debilitating, let alone eight!

Yan Jinyun sighed sincerely: "The condom is really a great invention!"

"As long as there are natural rubber trees..."

Yan Jinyun quickly covered Wu Shen's mouth: "No, this won't work. If we dare to promote contraception with great fanfare in this era, we will be regarded as sinners through the ages." Farming society pays special attention to population.At this time, there is one item in the evaluation of officials. When the officials are in office, the population increase in the area under their jurisdiction must be recorded.

It doesn't matter if you secretly use contraception in private, but you can't publicly promote the idea of ​​contraception in the public.

However, Yan Jinyun still sympathized with women in this era, and whispered: "Actually, there are simple condoms, such as sheep intestines and fish bubbles. I don't know whether they are easy to use or not, but they do exist. It's just these methods. Not everyone knows it. Everyone is ashamed to talk about bed curtains in front of others. Many people don’t know it all their lives. The key is that women’s status is too low, and society uses fertility to measure women’s value. If women can go out to work, If they can have legitimate jobs and be independent, they will naturally think of contraception, and these methods will quietly become popular."

Or, don't even have to go out to work...

You know, the food in this world can not only fill your stomach, but also replenish your emotions, which is why the status of a chef is so high.If all the women in the world could learn how to cook, they would be able to learn truly advanced cooking skills without paying any price.Even if some women have mediocre talents, as long as they are willing to work hard, they may be able to learn to the level of Sun Er...

Then, they who have a skill can naturally improve their status in the family.

Wu Shen agreed with Yan Jinyun's point of view, if Yan Jinyun could really do something for the women and common people in this world, he would support it.However, full of scientific spirit, he asked in a strange way: "Fish bubble? Isn't it fishy?"

Yan Jinyun said dryly: "But that, that kind of liquid is, it is fishy. So it's, it's okay?"

Obviously this topic is not too much, but why can't I continue talking all of a sudden.The two looked at each other.

"Haha, the weather is really nice today." Yan Jinyun looked up at the sky.

"Yeah, the weather is really nice." Wu Shen looked down at the ground.
