The little girl from a farm family has a big wish to make a fortune by farming and picking mushrooms
Chapter 317 Banquet of Thanks
Zhou Mingshu lay in the house for a week, and his lower back pain finally got better.
Although there is still some pain, it is not a serious matter and does not prevent her from getting out of bed and going out to do some daily activities.
She doesn't have to do any work at home that requires squatting or bending over.
She wandered around the flower garden all day, one to observe the seedlings and the other to exercise.
It happened that the mine was closed today and the restaurant was not busy, so Old Lady Zhou planned to invite Lord Qi to come and eat mutton.
Calling Da Zhou Mingzhi and Qi Xu together, the three of them went to the military defense camp to ask for help.
On this side, the eldest, second and third brothers Zhou returned home early and were sharpening their knives to slaughter the sheep.
Now that the weather is not hot, we can slaughter the sheep and keep the uneaten meat for two more days. If the weather gets hotter in a while, I'm afraid all the meat will have to be hung in the well.
The sheep's blood, sheepskin and other things were all properly dealt with. The sheep's internal organs were picked out in a basin. There was no time to clean them up today, so I will clean them slowly later.
Large pieces of the best lamb legs and lamb ribs were cut off and placed one by one on the chopping board.
They had already discussed that such good mutton should not be wasted and should be used to make several delicious dishes.
Braised lamb and grilled lamb chops are two must-try dishes.
A few more dishes would be enough.
Zhou Mingshu didn't worry about it. No matter what his family members cooked, the sheep was too big to be eaten in one or two meals.
She'll show off her skills when she's better.
In addition to braised lamb and grilled lamb chops, the three Liu sisters-in-law also wanted to cook a pot of clear lamb soup and a plate of stir-fried lamb with green onions.
These four dishes alone were not enough, so they thought of another eight dishes, which together made a full meal.
The four cold dishes are all ready-made at home, one roast duck, one duck product, one cold shredded chicken and a plate of spicy and sour noodles with red oil.
The other four hot dishes are braised duck with sour bamboo shoots, stir-fried water spinach, stir-fried meat with green peppers, and minced meat tofu.
All twelve dishes were delicious. After wiping the table, the children waited for Master Qi to arrive.
He also called the village chief and his second uncle to come and have a drink with the guests.
Qi Rui didn't expect that Old Lady Zhou would invite him to dinner at her home. He didn't want to go at first, but after thinking about it, he agreed.
They killed a sheep to entertain him, so he had to give them this face. He also took this opportunity to see if Zhou Mingshu was feeling better, as he still had some questions to ask him.
As soon as Old Mrs. Zhou left, Qi Rui picked out a more casual outfit and changed into it.
"How is it? This one is pretty good, right?"
"That's right, the master has such a good figure, everything she wears looks good!"
Taking Rufeng with them, the two of them rode their horses slowly towards Lianglin Village.
I haven't been here for a few days, and the flower garden in Lao Zhoujiawei is becoming more and more lively.
At a glance, various green colors overlap in the garden, occasionally dotted with colorful flowers.
It looks very interesting and is worth stopping to watch.
However, the small flowers in front of the fence are blooming luxuriantly, one crowded with another, and you can't find the green leaves underneath unless you look carefully.
The colors are also colorful, which is really a feast for the eyes.
Qi Rui took a look but couldn't recognize what kind of flower it was.
From time to time, little girls from the village came to pick flowers, but they showed fearful expressions when they saw strangers coming.
The two men tied the horses to the old locust tree at the gate and walked towards the yard.
There was already a faint smell of meat in the yard. There were a few people busy cooking in the kitchen. Not far away, there was the sound of a little girl teasing a child.
Following the sound, they saw Zhou Mingshu and his two sisters playing with their child.
Seeing that she walked a little stiffly, I knew that Zhou Mingshu was not fully recovered yet.
Maybe everyone in the family is too busy, or maybe they are too focused on what they are doing.
So much so that he and Rufeng stood in the middle of the yard for several breaths without anyone noticing them.
Qi Rui had no choice but to fake cough a few times to attract other people's attention.
When they heard the sound from his side, Zhou Mingshu and others turned their heads one by one.
"You are here, my lord. Please take a seat. I will bring a pot of tea."
Zhou Mingshu hurried over to help him carry the chair.
Qi Rui signaled Rufeng to come, and Rufeng was also smart and did not let Zhou Mingshu do it.
"Just let Rufeng come. Don't bother with anything since you are injured."
"Thank you for your concern, I am almost well now."
Zhou Mingshu walked into the kitchen and brought out the honeysuckle tea that had been brewed early in the morning.
"Sir, this is honeysuckle tea. I picked it from my own flower garden some time ago. This flower tea has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying. I also added some honey to it. Please try it and see if it tastes good."
Qi Rui touched the teacup and found it was not hot, so he took a sip.
"It tastes great, with the fresh scent of flowers and herbs and the sweetness of honey. The tea soup is bright in color. It is good tea."
Zhou Mingshu laughed after hearing this. Lord Qi was really good at talking. He almost praised a cup of scented tea to the point of flowers.
"Haha, as long as it suits your taste, please enjoy. The dishes in the kitchen may take some time to be ready."
Seeing the village chief and second grandfather coming, Zhou Mingshu was about to leave.
"Miss Zhou, I have something else I want to ask you."
"Huh? What's the matter?"
Zhou Mingshu was very surprised. What else could she do to help the adults?
"A few days ago, my military camp grilled a lot of meat skewers for food, but I always felt that something was missing. The grilled food was tasteless and it was a pity to throw it away. I hope the young lady can lend a hand and give us some guidance."
"So that's what it is. No problem. I'll tell you everything I know."
"Then I would like to thank you very much."
"No need to thank me, it's my honor to do this little thing for the general. As long as they are from the Mingshu Society, I will definitely teach them well."
Isn’t it just teaching them how to barbecue?
This is easy, you can just demonstrate it when the time comes. It will definitely taste great when paired with her dipping sauce.
Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, Old Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Feng brought the prepared cold dishes to the table first.
We can't just let the guests sit and wait.
Wang Fugui and Zhou Tiezhu were not idle either. They brought a pot of wine from the side and chatted with the cold-faced official.
This official is young and seems to have a bad temper, and he should have a sword on his waist.
They were always a little nervous when greeting others, with sweat dripping down their backs. It was better to be comfortable with Lord Xue, the magistrate of Niu County.
After a while, Shen Yang, Qi Xu and a few other boys from the small courtyard came over chatting and laughing, holding a bamboo dragonfly in their hands.
It's obviously for children to play with.
They didn't know Qi Rui would come, and they had different reactions after seeing him.
Zhou Mingzhi and Shen Yang both bowed quickly, with respectful expressions on their faces.
And the brat Qi Xu was still playing with the little thing in his hand, his brows furrowed with doubts.
As if asking 'Why are you here?'
But in the end, I just bowed obediently.
While they were talking, Old Mrs. Zhou had already served all the dishes.
