Mrs. Xing of the Red Chamber

Usually, even basic drinking water is saved and saved. For example, the water used to wash the vegetables can be used to wash the dishes after we have eaten, and can be used to water the vegetables afterward.

We all try our best to save water, otherwise the water will not be enough. "

Well, it sounds like there is indeed a big difference between the Northwest region and the capital city, it's like a sky and a land.

If people who are used to the capital suddenly go to the northwest, wouldn't that be fatal?

For example, Jia Amnesty in the original work, didn't he just disappear in the exile area?In addition to the hard work in the place of exile, not adapting to the environment in the northwest may also be a large part of the reason.

But it's not a big problem for Li Mo. In the last days, when he was so hungry that his stomach burned, he never stuffed anything into his mouth!

No matter how difficult the northwest region is, it is not as severe as it was in the last days.

Of course, Li Mo, who has a small space as a backup, doesn't have to worry. If he doesn't get used to it, won't he secretly use the things in the space to improve it?

But Hengan and the others who followed in the past may have to suffer, but their house has been raided, so how can they not suffer a little bit, and this little bit of suffering is nothing in Li Mo's eyes!

Taking this opportunity, let them who are used to a rich life adapt to the life of ordinary people, so that they can have the perseverance to take on the responsibility of taking care of their wives and daughters in the future!

However, the servants to be brought over should be carefully selected, and don't be more careless than your own master when the time comes, who will take care of you when you fall ill all of a sudden!

The ostensible servants of Jia's mansion will be re-sold by the government after their homes are confiscated.

At that time, simply let Li Mo secretly buy people outside and buy back people he can trust.

Anyway, the deeds of sale of those people outside were put in the space by Li Mo, and he didn't worry about what others would find out.

Well, Li Mo has roughly planned the schedule after the house raid, as long as there are no major accidents, just make preparations according to the plan!

"Oh, it really sounds different from our capital city!

Then Xiaomei, how did you sell yourself here in the capital and then enter the mansion?I didn't listen to you very carefully last time. "

After Li Mo had planned the future in his mind, he was also interested in hearing about other things.

When Xiaomei heard Madam's question, there was no major change on her face, but she said in a slightly depressed mood:

"Although the maidservant's hometown is closer to the northwest wilderness, the family used to live well.

It's just that after giving birth to the slave girl, the slave girl's own mother has been working hard for a long time in order to have a son to carry on the family line, and she finally conceived a child, but it was difficult to give birth to my younger brother.

I couldn't find a good doctor in the village. My younger brother stayed in my mother's womb for too long, and my body has been weak since birth. My mother also had difficulty conceiving because of the dystocia. "

Speaking of this, Xiaomei's eyes were a little red, she paused and continued:

"Later, my younger brother was ill and couldn't be cured. The slave girl sold the slave girl to Ren Yazi who came to the village because the father couldn't get enough money to treat the younger brother.

Ren Yazi heard that the capital could fetch a good price, so Ren Yazi brought us to the capital. Later, when he met a buyer in the mansion, the slaves took this opportunity to enter the mansion! "

What Li Mo asked was actually investigated after Xiaomei entered the big room. If there was a real problem with the person, Li Mo would not let Xiaomei work by his side.

Asking again this time is just a habitual test of Xiaomei!

"Then you didn't try to inquire about your family's situation afterwards?"

Li Mo asked with some doubts.

Looking at Xiaomei, she didn't seem to be resentful towards her family. After she came to the mansion and settled down, she couldn't believe that she didn't ask about her parents in her hometown.

Xiaomei said with a smile: "Why not, this time the servant's hometown is back home to visit relatives, but help some servants to inquire about the news at home!"

Xiaoyin on the other side had just entered the door, and when she heard Xiaomei talking about this, she asked casually:

"Hey, looking at you like this, Xiaomei, did your fellow villager help you find out about your home? How is your home now?"

Li Mo also looked at Xiaomei with the same interest.On the contrary, I have some guesses about the situation in her family. It should be that the situation has improved, otherwise Xiaomei wouldn't be so happy!

Xiaomei was very relieved when she thought of what the fellow villager had inquired about just now.

At least after I was sold, the family situation finally stabilized a bit, so I went back and said:

"Yes, my fellow countryman has already asked me about it. My younger brother's illness has finally improved, and my father and mother can finally live a more stable life!"

"Well, that's good. Seeing that you are tired after going out in such a cold day, you should go back and rest first!"

Xiaomei had been out for quite a long time just now. She didn't feel any discomfort because she was worried about the situation at home. Now that she has relaxed so much, she really feels a little cold!

It's better to go back and drink a bowl of ginger soup and sleep first.

Seeing that Madam would not be able to use her here for the time being, she quickly responded: "Yes, Madam, that slave will go down first!"

After Li Mo chatted with them for a while, more than half an hour has passed!

Thinking that I haven't eaten hot pot for a long time, let's make a hot pot tonight!Put some more chili, hiss, thinking about the delicious taste!Hungry Li Mo

Feeling more hungry!The snacks and snacks I ate just now did not satisfy my hunger at all.

In the evening, it happened that Heng An Jia Zong could come to eat hot pot together. When Li Mo thought of this, he simply got up and planned to go to the kitchen to make a good hot pot soup base by himself.

Putting on a thick padded jacket, fur boots, and a cloak with a thick fur collar, Li Mo walked towards the kitchen.

Hehe, originally Li Mo planned to go out, but he still couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food.

When he arrived at the kitchen, Li Mo took a look at the various ingredients in the kitchen. There were fresh chicken, pork, and mutton. The fresh vegetables were only the cabbage that had just been picked in front. Cabbage and some potatoes.

There are also some mung bean sprouts made from mung beans yesterday, which are plump and juicy. Well, I can let them wash a dish or two later, and make them a side dish when eating hot pot for dinner.

Li Mo asked the cook to cut up one or two plates of these three kinds of meat, wash some Chinese cabbage, Chinese cabbage and potatoes and tidy them up. You can put these dishes directly into the prepared soup pot for dinner and cook them up.

Now let's prepare the soup base of the hot pot first, so that the soup base of the hot pot can be fully flavored when dinner is ready.

Ask the cook to prepare ingredients such as chicken, duck, pork bones, ham knuckle, lean pork, etc., wash ginger, green onion, wolfberry, red dates and other ingredients and put them on the stove.

Li Mo will need it later, in such a cold day, Li Mo doesn't want to fix these things by himself, so it's okay to torment himself!

Li Mo, who is a landlord and exploiting class, adapts very naturally. People are very quick to accept and adapt to things that are beneficial to themselves, and they will instinctively fight for the maintenance of such things that are beneficial to their lives.

Otherwise, why the feudal social system has existed for thousands of years is because no matter who is in power, that is, the ruling class, they all hope that they can centralize power in their own hands, which makes the feudal society last for so long.

After hearing Li Mo's order, several people in the kitchen began to take action with a clear division of labor. Those who killed the chickens killed the chickens, and those who killed the ducks killed the ducks.The kitchen was suddenly full of excitement.

When the kitchen informed that all the ingredients and ingredients were ready, I just waited for Li Mo to go over and make the soup base.

Li Mo picked up the casserole that the cook had already washed, and put a small part of the chopped chicken, duck, pork bones, ham elbow, lean pork, etc. into the casserole and boiled it with water. The floating layer of blood bubbles fell away.

Li Mo saw that all the ingredients used in the kitchen were prepared, so he asked everyone else to go out first, and he made it by himself first.

After seeing that everyone else had gone out, Li Mo replaced all the water in the casserole with the pool water in the space, covered the casserole, put it back on the stove to simmer, kept the soup slightly open, and turned over the broken small bubbles.

The reason why Li Mo replaced the water in the casserole with the pool water in the space was to enhance the freshness and make the soup base more delicious.

In this way, when eating hot pot, the chicken, fish, mutton, pork, vegetables, dried bamboo shoots and shiitake mushrooms in the hot pot will be even more delicious!

Add some garlic cloves, scallions, ginger slices, wolfberry, red dates, salt, white pepper, etc. to the casserole. After dealing with these, Li Mo asked someone to come in and help watch the fire. I guess it should be enough for dinner.

Li Mo returned to the house and continued to look at the handbook of traditional Chinese medicine that he hadn't finished reading.While thinking, it is rare to want to eat hot pot once. Besides asking the two children to come over to eat together, it seems that only three people who have prepared it can't finish it, so why don't they just ask Jia She to come over to eat together!

When Heng An and Jia Zong came back from school in the evening, Xiao Yin had already waited at the gate of the courtyard in advance as Li Mo ordered.

When Hengan and Jia Zong came out of the school, they saw Xiaoyin waiting there. Hengan asked strangely, "Sister Xiaoyin, why are you here? Does your mother need to ask me for something?"
