The little cook in the book has fallen asleep

Time passed quickly. The Cheng family did their own things step by step every day. The family had income every day, so they saved more and more money.

And autumn is coming quietly!

Zheng Rong came to Cheng's house after the spring plowing and has been there for half a year. At this moment, she is squatting in the backyard looking at the golden corn, feeling extremely happy.

Although she was not a man, she was influenced by her grandfather and could not move when she saw things that could solve the problem of food and clothing for the people.

Well, her grandfather had been urging her to return to Beijing, saying that family matters had been dealt with and that she could go home with peace of mind.

But she couldn't bear to do so. Look at the golden corn, the delicious sweet potato products and potatoes, these are all food!

She seemed to have made some decision, and went back to her room to write a letter. Not only did she not go back, she also wanted to make his grandfather come here.

The Cheng family's yard was bustling today. Li Huaxiang and her three sisters-in-law did not go out to the stall. They were busy in the kitchen at this moment, because Cheng Yiyu and his two brothers were going to the provincial capital to take part in the provincial examination.

Old Mrs. Cheng and Li Huaxiang were making meat patties and steamed buns in the kitchen, while Zhao Yunniang and Lin Pan'er were roasting pork jerky.

The three Cheng Yiyu brothers would spend two days on the road, and they also had to prepare some food for the days of the exam.

Old Master Cheng was carefully checking his own carriage. On the day when Cheng Lixiao and the other two went to the Wei County Magistrate's Lotus Appreciation Banquet, they went to the livestock market and bought a horse. The carriage was a gift from the store.

The carriage was so crudely made that it fell apart after just a few uses. So the father and his four sons made a new carriage and are currently adjusting its position.

After Yuan Heng accepted the disciple, he carried rations to Cheng's house every day for a month, but he returned to the border defense army to resume his post two months ago!

Although he only accepted five disciples including Cheng Yiyu, he called all the children in the Cheng family to train every day, even his cousin Zheng Rong and her maid Xiaolan, as well as the youngest Cheng Yu.

Today he hurriedly rushed to Cheng's house from the border town. He had just arrived at Cheng's house. His apprentice was going to the provincial capital to take the provincial examination. He was very happy!

It just so happened that there was something in the border defense camp that needed to be dealt with in the provincial capital, so he came to the Cheng family, intending to personally send his three apprentices to the provincial capital.

"Master, why are you here?" Cheng Yiyu asked happily.

In the beginning, the five boys of the Cheng family were indeed forced to become his disciples, but later on, their master conquered them with his personal charm (by force).

"I just happened to have something to do in the provincial capital. I thought you were also going to take the exam, so I came to pick you up and go together! Here, these are for the three of you. It's a bit cold in the morning and evening, so you can use them in the examination room!" Yuan Heng handed three pairs of knee pads to them. Looking at the young men in front of him, he was very happy.

The Cheng family has a good family tradition and good education, and the children are polite, filial and respectful. He originally had his eyes on Cheng Liyao first, but as soon as he arrived, he fell in love with the boys in the Cheng family.

He has no children of his own and truly treats these kids as his own nephews and nieces.

"Master, you are here, come quickly, come quickly, your sister has made some chestnut cake, I'm sure you will like it!" Cheng Zhiwen came out carrying a large plate of chestnut cake.

The Cheng brothers thought it was very funny that their master, a big and strong man, actually loved sweets, especially the snowy fruit made by their sister. He could eat two large plates of it in one go.

(Ingredients for osmanthus chestnut cake: chestnuts, osmanthus, honey, warm water.

Cut the chestnuts into cross shapes, then boil them in an appropriate amount of water until the water is almost dry and the chestnuts are cooked.

After the chestnuts are cooked, peel them, press them into a paste, and sift them repeatedly until they become a paste. Add honey, sugar, and warm boiled water soaked with osmanthus to adjust to the appropriate consistency.

Shape into small balls, put into a mold and compact, sprinkle with osmanthus flowers as decoration, and steam it in a steamer for a while! )

"Nannan still loves me!" Yuan Heng took away all the chestnut cakes from Cheng Zhiwen's hands.

The Cheng family went up the mountain to pick chestnuts, so Cheng Yu made a lot and planned to let her brothers put them on the carriage to eat together.

Cheng Yu was embossing flowers in the kitchen at this time. When he heard his godfather's voice, he immediately leaned out and said, "Godfather, eat less sweets. I will make you something delicious later!"

After she upgraded the system to level three, she actually installed a medical examination system. Upon examination, she discovered that her adoptive father had many hidden injuries of varying sizes. She could only use spiritual spring water and Chinese medicine pills (mixed by the system) to help him recover little by little.

Now that I’m feeling a little better, I’m eating sweets again, but sweets have the effect of counteracting drugs!

"Okay, I'll stop eating after I finish this plate," Yuan Heng held the chestnut cake lovingly. It tasted fragrant and sweet, and was extremely delicious!

"Nannan, I brought some bacon. They said the bacon in the border town is delicious!" Yuan Heng said outside.

During the month he spent at Cheng's house, he really felt very happy. He and his sister might have had a weak relationship since childhood, as their parents died early, and the remaining elders only came for their family's money.

The reason why he did not marry was because he was surrounded by wolves, tigers and leopards, and he was afraid of the monsters and demons and became immune to women.

But the female soldiers of the Cheng family are different. They are not petty and do things cheerfully and generously, so the Cheng family is very harmonious and warm.

After he got an apprentice, he couldn't even stay at his sister's house. If the Cheng family had enough room, he would have wanted to live directly at the Cheng family!

"Okay, myna, are you busy? Can you help me get a piece of bacon?" Cheng Yu said.

After taking a look at the rice that had been steamed a long time ago, she decided to make potato rice. Her potatoes should be edible, so she would give them to her family and stepfather to try.

"Okay!" Cheng Xiaoba was originally helping Cheng Zhiwen pack up, while Xiaoou was arguing with him on the side. After hearing what his sister said, he threw his third brother's things, picked up the bacon and ran to the kitchen.

Cheng Xiaoba came in with a piece of bacon, then swallowed and asked Cheng Yu: "Sister, what are we having for lunch today!"

"Potato rice, grandma, are you ready?" Cheng Yu casually threw the bacon into the boiling pig feed pot which was not yet sticky.

"It's almost there, hold still!" Old Mrs. Cheng looked at Cheng Yu standing on the small stool with fear in her eyes.

This little girl speaks very clearly. After she grew tall enough, she would run to the kitchen every day to help cook. Since the stove was too high, she would stand on a small stool and cook. Except for the complicated ones that she asked the mother-in-law and her to do together, she would do all the other things.

Old Mrs. Cheng is really afraid that Cheng Yu will fire her one day!

Cheng Yu threw the bacon into the pig feed pot. He was afraid that the meat would fall in, so he tied a rope to the string that tied the bacon.

It’s almost cooked, so I wash the bacon with hot water and then take it out to cut. It’s a pity there is no ham, otherwise it would definitely taste better!

"Okay, grandma, don't worry!" Cheng Yu waved his hand indifferently.

"Cousin, you and Sister Xiaolan continue to make chestnut cake. I'm going to go find some side dishes." Cheng Yu said with a smile, looking at the few remaining chestnuts.

"I'm going too. Come on, Xiaolan!" After Zheng Rong came here, she also liked to do her own things, so Xiaolan had a lot more free time.

"Okay, I was thinking of calling my godfather!" Cheng Yu resigned himself to taking Zheng Rong to the backyard, and Cheng Zhiwen followed them out of concern.

Cheng Yu asked Cheng Zhiwen to take Zheng Rong to pick peas, while she started digging potatoes. After digging a few, she picked all the potatoes into her backpack and also picked a few Erjingtiao peppers.

When she had finished everything, she found that Cheng Zhiwen and the others had also picked a full small basket.

"Come on, go back and help me shell the peas!"

Cheng Yu pointed to the large backpack beside him and motioned for his third brother to carry it. Zheng Rong also consciously picked up the small backpack and followed behind.

The Cheng family worked quickly and everyone peeled all the peas, and then helped Cheng Yu cut the bacon and potatoes into small square pieces.

Cheng Yu fried the potato cubes in the same oil that Old Lady Cheng used to make meat patties. Fry them until they turned golden brown, then removed them and set them aside.

Then get out the oil, add some lard, pour in the bacon, stir-fry repeatedly until fragrant, and beat the bacon pieces for later use.

Pour the washed peas into the pot, then add potato cubes, bacon cubes, and finally the steamed rice.

Cover the pot and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. Open the lid and add the chopped Erjingtiao, stir-fry, continue to simmer on low heat for five minutes and serve.

They took out two large wooden barrels used to make cold noodles and scooped out the lids. Then, Li Huaxiang and the others took out the pickles made by her mother-in-law.

Old Mrs. Cheng also cut out the cooked vegetable soup and the steamed bacon and sausages.

Everyone was very satisfied with the meal. After lunch, the Cheng family cleaned up the dishes quickly and started to prepare food for Cheng Yiyu and his three brothers. This time, Cheng Lixiao accompanied the three brothers.

"Big Brother, Second, Third, Fourth Brother, this is what I prepared for you."

Each person was given a small purse containing five gold melon seeds and a silver note. The gold melon seeds were given to her by Yuan Heng; each person was given a small bottle of spiritual spring water in a jade gourd, and each person was given a bottle of cooling oil, which could be applied when one was sleepy, and could also be used to apply on mosquito bites.

"Godfather, this is what Nannan prepared for you," also a jade gourd, and a few bottles of medicine.

"Okay, okay, these little girls are for you!" Yuan Heng took out a pink purse from his waist and handed it to Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu opened it a little and saw that it was a golden peanut. He smiled happily.

"Come here, Xiao brother, waiter, these are for the four of you. General Yuan, this is yours!" Old Mrs. Cheng took out some dry food and homemade dried meat and handed them to them.

"Godfather, brothers, these are compressed biscuits. Eat them after you finish the dry food made by grandma and the others. Be sure to drink water while eating!" Cheng Yu also took out two packages, one large and one small.

It's not that she is stingy. She upgraded the space system two days ago and only had the last 500 points left, so she exchanged them for medicine and compressed biscuits. That was all she had.

This system is really shit. The things grown in the space can only be taken out for your own consumption or exchanged for other things. The main thing is that there are not many types of things that can be exchanged.

"Come on, just do your best!"

The Cheng family watched the two carriages leave Qingshan Village, feeling reluctant to let them go, and prayed that Cheng Yiyu and the other three would get what they wished for!

Cheng Yu looked at his empty wallet, feeling like crying but unable to cry. This money was really hard to spend. The money from selling ginseng was almost all gone.

And, the person who is going to send money to Cheng Yu is also coming!
