Eating melons

Chapter 84 Copper Pot

Jiang Qi knew how much Wei Wei coveted Xiao Xuemu's food, and Wei Wei always believed that Xiao Xuemu's food had the effect of strengthening the body, so she was always obsessed with finding ways to get more food from Xiao Xuemu.

Don’t say that Wei Wei is greedy, she is also quite greedy. It’s because she became picky when they were living together before.

Although there was no meat dish, there was at least half a chicken in the soup base, and Jiang Qi also threw in a lot of mushrooms, so there was still quite a bit.

Moreover, eating vegetables requires a clear soup base.

Jiang Qi: "Here is the hot sauce. If you want spicy food, adjust it to your taste."

Xiao Xuemu took the bowl and said, "Thank you."

Wei Wei looked at the boiling pot and swallowed, "Come on, come on, eat quickly, eat quickly, it's ready to eat."

After that, he served each of them a bowl of soup. The four of them sat around the stove, each on a low stool, and ate with relish.

Looking at the empty soup base, he teased, "Brother, don't be stunned! You two are sitting close to each other, serve the dishes!"

Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu changed their chopsticks to eat, which was indeed a bit inconvenient.

Li Zhibin: "I'll call the day after tomorrow and ask my brother to get me a copper pot. It's more convenient for the stove."

Upon hearing this, Wei Wei's eyes lit up and she immediately raised her hand, "Can you get me one too?"

Xiao Xuemu found it funny to see her wanting everything, "Why do you want everything? Do you know what that is?"

Wei Wei shook her head. "I don't know, but I've heard of it. Can you get me one too? Please."

Although this thing is sold in the system mall, she is from the south and Jiang Qi is from Shanghai, but the copper pot is from the north, so they have no excuse to take it out.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Xuemu stopped teasing her and said, "Okay, I'll call and ask for it the day after tomorrow. It should be delivered before the snow starts."

Jiang Qi looked at the two big guys and exclaimed how awesome they were. At that time, people wanted to reduce the number of words in telegrams as much as possible. When they wanted a stove, they just called directly. This is the huge gap between the rich and the poor.

Two more people were added at the last minute. Fortunately, Wei Wei was well prepared and had plenty of ingredients. The four of them finished all the food, including the soup and sweet potato noodles.

Wei Wei was full. "Are you guys full? If not, add some more noodles."

When the three heard this, they hurriedly said that they were full and had eaten too much.

Jiang Qi: "Open the door and let some air in! The smell won't be that strong anymore."

Wei Wei: "Okay."

After saying that, he stood up, opened the door to ventilate and cleaned up the mess. Due to their previous experience of living together, Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu began to wash the dishes skillfully.

Jiang Qi looked at the chicken and rabbit on the chopping board and felt a headache. The chicken was delicious, but he couldn't eat it every day!

Jiang Qi: "I just saw that you have quite a few green onions, right?"

Wei Wei: "Yes, there are still plenty of green onions and shallots. What's wrong?"

Jiang Qi: "I'll marinate this chicken and have scallion chicken tomorrow! I'll marinate the rabbit too and stir-fry it. The question is, if we eat this every day, there won't be any problems, right?"

Wei Wei also thought of this. Although they were usually very careful, some smell would inevitably leak out.

Xiao Xuemu: "It's okay. Many people saw me bringing a rabbit back from the mountain today. It's normal to eat a rabbit for two days.

"Can we come and have dinner tomorrow? I have a duck, so dinner will be enough. We have to go up the mountain during the day."

Wei Wei immediately agreed when she heard the duck, "A warm welcome."

Seeing Wei Wei like that, Li Zhibin couldn't help but retort, "Wei Wei, could you please stop acting like whoever has milk is the mother?"

Wei Wei rolled her eyes at him and said, "Just tell me whether you're coming or not!"

Li Zhibin: "Come."

Wei Wei: "That's all."

Wei Wei looked at Xiao Xuemu and said, "You guys often run in the mountains, have you ever seen ginseng? I heard there's a lot of ginseng in Northeast China. We ran in the mountains every day a while ago, and we didn't see a single ginseng."

Li Zhibin: "You went up the mountain to look for ginseng. Do you know what ginseng is?"

Wei Wei shook her head and said honestly, "I don't know him."

To be honest, she wouldn't be able to recognize what ginseng looks like in the soil even if it was right in front of her.

Xiao Xuemu: "You haven't gone to the deep mountains. The nearby places have generally been harvested by the people in the team. There should be quite a few people in the team who have ginseng at home. You can go to the team leader's house and ask."

Xiao Xuemu thought that Wei Wei was asking about ginseng because she wanted to resell it. Most of the ginseng in his space had just sprouted. Although there were a few big ones, they were not very old.

That's why I recommended her to ask the team. In fact, Wei Wei didn't want to resell it. She would never sell this kind of thing under any circumstances. She just wanted to taste it and eat it.

Wei Wei: "Okay."

As soon as Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu left, Wei Wei pestered Jiang Qi, "Let's go ask Aunt Liu tomorrow! I've been here for so long, I almost forgot about the ginseng."

Jiang Qi nodded and said, "Okay, ginseng should be able to sell for a good price. It will make much more money than digging wild vegetables."

Wei Wei was stunned. "What? Selling? Selling this too?"

Jiang Qi paused, "You're not selling it?"

Wei Wei: "Of course I'm going to eat this good stuff myself! It's so expensive on the system, I can't even bear to buy it.

We are not that short of money. The ginseng we have nowadays should all be wild ginseng. This kind of thing cannot be sold. We should eat it ourselves to nourish our bodies."

After saying that, Wei Wei nodded.

Jiang Qi was speechless, "Do you still need to make up for it?"

Wei Wei blinked. "But I really can't bear to sell this thing. Besides, I haven't even tasted it yet! How about this! If you buy a lot, sell some. If you buy less, don't sell it."

Jiang Qi: "Okay, go get the green onions from your place, pickle them tonight, pickle them all day tomorrow, and steam them tomorrow night. This way they'll be more flavorful."

Wei Wei: "Okay."

After saying that, he went back to get the onions. Just then, Xiao Xuemu brought the duck over. It was pleasing to see the duck being cleaned. If it had not been killed, it would have been a disaster.

But when Jiang Qi looked at the chickens, ducks and rabbits on the chopping board, he felt a little bad. How could he eat so many at once?

Wei Wei: "It's okay. The temperature in the house is low today, so it's completely fine to leave it for two days. We'll have scallion chicken and rabbit tomorrow night, and old duck soup the day after tomorrow. It's a good change of taste.

If I don't buy ginseng tomorrow, I'll just go to the system mall and buy a little bit. I just want to eat it, but it's too expensive. One gram costs fifty or sixty yuan, and making a soup costs several hundred yuan."

Jiang Qi: "That's fine. Then you can buy some angelica and lotus seeds."

Wei Wei: "Okay."

The next day, the two of them stayed in bed until after eight o'clock. They were too lazy to cook in the morning, so they bought buns last night and put them in the pot.

As soon as I woke up this morning, I got up and lit the fire, then continued to stay in bed so that I could eat when I got up.

Wei Wei stretched lazily, "This kang is really warm. To be honest, before I traveled through time, I always thought that in the north, people would burn fire underneath the kang, and lie on it, separated by a layer of stone slabs.

I used to be confused and wondered if people wouldn't be roasted like this. Who knew they weren't burning the fire directly under the kang, but on a stove?

Jiang Qi: "I used to think so too, wondering how it was any different from teppanyaki, but I didn't expect there was no fire underneath."

Wei Wei: "I don't understand how it works, but it's quite warm. It's much more practical than air conditioning. Why don't we have this in the south? This thing should be widely used. I used to rely on shaking myself, relying on my righteous energy and shaking."

Jiang Qi: "Who isn't? That's why you have rheumatism and cold legs at such a young age. Oh! Get up!"

Wei Wei: "Yeah."
