[Red Mansions] The promotion of the female history of salted fish

The matter of Mrs. Chen was just an episode. After being punished by Situ Hui for copying women's precepts, this person completely lost his sense of existence in the mansion.Yun Ling sometimes wonders whether the Chen family in Jiangnan is still actively sending funds to the Chen family as before? It's a pity that she can't take the initiative to ask Yang Peishan about this kind of thing, so she can only silently wonder about it.

It was Xia He who led the little girl to clean all the jars that had been dug out before. Yunling ordered Pan Youren to go to the kitchen to get half a basket of grapes, and at the same time ordered Xia He to boil the jars in boiling water and then expose them to the sun.When Pan Youren came back from the kitchen, several jars had been completely dried, and the little eunuch was already standing on the ladder to pick the fruit.

It's only two or three days. Another batch of pink peaches appeared on the tree.When the little eunuch picked it, he had to be careful not to pick it in one place. After all, this peach tree still has an ornamental effect. Now this tree is full of fruits, and half of them are still ripe. It can be seen in the house. Jinger,? But if you catch a place and get bald, it's hard to say.

When the little eunuch was fighting the tree on the ladder, Pan Youren also brought the grapes back from the kitchen.The fruit basket sent by the kitchen is very delicate, with leaves on the side, and plump purple grapes squeezed in the center of the small basket, which looks very cute.

"Do you want to eat it now, my lord? Can I go find a fruit plate now, okay?" Yuyan took the half basket of fruits from Pan Youren's arms, and said with a smile.In the yard, the little eunuchs are standing on the ladder to pick peaches. Although the little master will not be hit by anyone, the ash on the tree is not small. What should I do if I stand here for a long time and choke?

But Yunling waved her hand enthusiastically, "No need, let's put it in the house first." Turning around and looking at the number of peaches picked by the little eunuchs, Yunling's original words paused, "Well, forget it, you let Chunliu and the others help, peel this half of the basket of grapes. Don't throw away the grape skins, I can use them."

Originally, when Yunling ate fruits with skins like grapes and lychees, Chunliu had to peel the skins.Hearing this, Chunliu rushed up and quickly peeled off the grape skins.She peeled it quickly and well, almost without damaging the grape pulp, and the slightly purple pulp was placed in a crystal bowl. Seeing that Yunling, who didn't want to eat grapes so much, suddenly gained an appetite, she raised her head and told the tree to be still picking Taozi's little eunuchs, "It's almost enough, come down."

Two young eunuchs stood on two ladders facing each other to pick peaches, but they couldn't see each other because of the trees.Now hearing Yunling yelling for someone, the little eunuch on the right immediately fell into a tangle of "should I pick it up for a while to show positiveness, or obediently go down immediately".

Before he could come to a conclusion, he heard Yunling from below say, "You guys worked hard today, pick two peaches and bring them back later." The kitchen is not too close to Guantong Courtyard, and Pan Youren was waiting in the kitchen again After a while, more than half an hour had passed since the little eunuch went up to the tree to start picking fruit, and there were more than a dozen full baskets lined up under the tree.

Yunling said that everyone present has a share, and Yuyan and Yuchan took the lead in thanking each other.It probably has something to do with the geographical location. Fruits in the capital are quite rare.Although there is no shortage of these in the fifth prince's mansion, such rare things as fruit are not available to the little maids and eunuchs in this mansion.The peach tree in Yunling's courtyard had never produced fruit before. Originally, when the tree produced fruit this year, some people secretly regretted not being able to eat it. Unexpectedly, it was rewarded.For a while there were voices of thanksgiving both inside and outside the house, Yunling asked them to share and went back to the house to eat grapes.

The taste of the grapes is quite good, moderately sweet and sour, without the slightest astringency left by the grape skins.Yun Ling didn't eat grapes very much in modern times, there was no particular reason, but it was troublesome to peel them. She would rather eat two apples at that time.But now that someone has solved the most troublesome step, Yunling accepted it with a smile.

Half a basket of grapes looks like a lot, but in fact, Chunliu picked the grapes one by one and peeled them, which is two plates.After Yunling finished eating the grapes, she thought of the peaches in the courtyard, and directed Yuyan enthusiastically, "Go pick a basket of the best ones and send them to sister, I won't be polite to the rest."

In fact what is the best?The little eunuch who picked the peaches had already filtered them once before putting them in the basket. Just now, Yunling asked all the servants to pick the peaches in the basket, but no one dared to reach out to the biggest and reddest ones!So I filtered it again, and after doing this twice, the peaches in the basket are now big and red, looking pink and tender, exuding a charming fragrance.

Since there was not much difference, Yuyan simply chose the best-looking basket. After all, it was a gift, and it would not look good to go with an ordinary basket.

After sending the people away, Yunling instructed Xia He, "Come on, cut these peaches into large pieces, take out the core, and put them in a jar."

Presumably one needs to practice knife skills to make medicinal food, Xia He cuts peaches quite quickly.But after a while, the jar that Yunling ordered someone to find out was already full of large pieces of peach flesh——Xia He also removed the skin when cutting into pieces.

Yunling rubbed her chin, walked around the jar, turned her head and asked Yuchan, "Where's the spicy wine I asked you to keep?"

Yuchan hesitated, "My lord, you are still pregnant with your highness, so don't touch too much wine." Although it can be seen that the lord probably wants to brew some fruit wine, but the spicy wine tastes very strong. The Lord also liked to have a drink when he was not pregnant—although what he drank was not this spicy wine at the time, but what if he was hooked on it later?

As if knowing what she was thinking, Yun Ling smiled, "Is it okay if I don't drink at all? Otherwise, I'll stay away and you and Xia He pour the wine into the jar together?"

Yuchan breathed a sigh of relief, she only followed Yunling after Yunling arrived at the fifth prince's mansion, and she was not as willing to speak up as Yuyan when it came to persuading people.Seeing that Yunling had already guessed what she was thinking, Yuchan pursed her lips and lowered her head in embarrassment, "The servant girl will go get it now."

In fact, the women in the Fifth Prince's Mansion don't drink very much, even if they do drink occasionally during festivals, they don't drink high-grade liquor like spicy wine.Yunling is not a maverick, her taste is similar to everyone else's when drinking.If there is a real difference, it is probably because the alcohol content here is low, and she will drink half a pot occasionally when she is happy, which is more frequent than others.This body is also a person who can drink well, anyway, Yunling has never been drunk so far.

As for the spicy wine, Yunling specially ordered someone to go out and buy it after she became pregnant.After all, there is no alcohol in this era, so Yunling took a sip of the spicy wine when she bought it. It was probably sorghum wine, with a temperature of about [-] degrees, and it probably still had some bactericidal effect.Originally, I wanted to prepare it for production, but now...

Yunling watched Yuchan lead the little maid to pour all the jar of spicy wine she kept in the cabinet into the jar, and at the same time told Pan Youren, "Go and buy two jars of spicy wine when you are free, this thing has many uses. "

Pan Youren was used to Yunling asking him to go out to buy things from time to time, and now he nodded repeatedly, "The merchant must be happy." He found this restaurant by accident. He originally made a living in the northwest frontier. When I was promising, I moved to the capital.It’s just that the future of the son of the restaurant is also relative. Compared with the people in the border towns, it is of course good, but it is very difficult to maintain the expenses of a large family in the capital. The restaurant was really anxious to see his son’s sad face every day, so he opened the door to do business again. .

Spicy wine, a high-grade baijiu, has always been popular with the big soldiers on the border, but it is quite uncomfortable to move to the capital.The last time Pan Youren went to buy wine, he was held back by the restaurant for a long time and had an affectionate conversation: Usually people buy wine in bulk of one catty or two catties, who like Pan Youren bought five jars as soon as they bought it?A jar weighs five catties, this is more than 20 catties of wine!Originally, spicy wine was not easy to sell, and the remaining inventory was the most. This big customer solved half of it in one go!

Yunling couldn't help laughing when she thought about the situation of the restaurant he came back to talk about last time, "Last time you said that if the wine was sold, the restaurant would have money to pay for your son's wedding. If that's the case, this time you bring two more The two silvers should be regarded as my share."

It's not that Yunling has no money and is stingy, it's just that for a small family, a windfall of two taels of silver is just right, so that outsiders won't be noticed or her temperament will be changed by getting rich overnight.Pan Youren also knew this truth. He often walked around Yunling, and he didn't pay much attention to the two taels of silver. Not to mention his monthly routine, he said that every time he went out to buy things, the silver that Yunling rewarded him would be worthless when he came back. More than this number.So Pan Youren readily agreed, "Young master, don't worry, this servant will definitely send your blessings."

While talking, Yuchan had already finished pouring the wine.The last two jars ran out of wine, Yunling simply touched her chin, one contained the koji used to make grain wine, and the other contained chopped grape skins.Originally, fruit wine yeast should be used to make fruit wine. The wine yeast carried on grape skins is still widely used in modern times!But at that time, everyone used the extracted grapes. Now there is no such condition. Half a basket of grape skins is chopped and put in it, which is better than nothing.

Before Yunling soaked the pulp of peaches in grain wine, Xia He could barely understand what Yunling was doing, but when she mixed the grape skins with peach pulp, Xia He was a little at a loss .Of course, if you don't understand it, you can't understand it, and the work on hand didn't stop. When Yuyan came back, a row of five jars weighing about seven catties had been completely sealed, and Yunling directed them to bury them in the soil under the peach tree. up.

Yuyan, who came back from the main courtyard, brought back a piece of latest news by the way: The attendant next to the fifth prince came back today, but he didn't stay in the main courtyard for long. out.

The author has something to say: Cherish the life of eating, drinking, drinking and having fun now, hehe~ The big show is about to begin~ Of course Yunling is not enough to be on stage, but someone from my family is on stage
