11. Spring in Xitou shepherd's purse flowers

Yan Ke ate five or six large loach in one go, and when he put down the bowls and chopsticks, he was full of praise: "It's very good."

Yan Xining didn't know that this was the highest evaluation given by the majestic Commander Yan.If the dishes made by the cooks of the palace can get a "delicious" comment from him, they will be proud for half a month.

Yan Xining put a bar of the loach in the pot on the plate: "Look, the chili is not that scary, right? Adding a little chili can add a different flavor."

Yan Ke savored the smell of loach: "Yes."

Chili is not poisonous. The imperial doctor once said that it has the effect of dispelling cold and eliminating food, but until now, few people dare to eat chili.Not only did Yan Xining use it, but she could also adjust the taste so well, she must have eaten a lot before entering the palace.

Thinking of this, Yan Ke greeted the eighteenth generation of Yan Boyong's ancestors again in his heart.Yan Boyong is in charge of the household department. The Yan family is a wealthy family, but they do things so outrageously.

Yan Ziyue spent a hundred taels of silver to treat his classmates to a meal in the Yingbin Building, but Yan Xining tasted herbs at home.It is also Yan Boyong's child, although there is a difference between the concubine and the concubine, but the difference in treatment is like heaven and earth.

Yan Ke thought about it carefully for a moment, what should he do if he was relocated.After thinking about it, he came to a heavy conclusion - he couldn't be as calm as Yan Xining and didn't care about anything.

Yan Xining didn't know what Yan Ke was thinking, he was earnestly stacking the loaches into a perfect cone.He only kept a small bowl of loach, and he packed the rest in a food box: "Bring these back to the brothers for extra meals."

He was impulsive just now, Wenzhang Garden has not been tidied up, and he still needs the servants of the palace to deliver meals.If the guards really ate here, he couldn't bring out enough dishes.

But after a month or two, the situation will improve.As long as the vegetables in the vegetable garden start to grow, he can gradually achieve self-sufficiency.

Yan Ke did not greet him politely: "Thank you."

After speaking, he floated out of the kitchen with the food box, and Yan Xining followed his footsteps into the courtyard.

He was stunned at just one glance: a black vegetable field appeared in front of his eyes, and the two sides of the canal were covered by blue-black silt.The guards left at some point. Before leaving, they carefully divided the mud to make sure that the mud in each vegetable field was about the same height.

In the canal in the middle of the vegetable field, the gurgling water flows through the blue bricks at the bottom and converges into the irregularly shaped pool.After staying in the pool for a short time, the slightly turbid running water flowed out along the ditch on the other side.

Looking at this piece of land, Yan Xining's eyes became slightly warm.This is the vegetable field of his dreams!

When my father was alive, he always told him: people are not lazy when they work hard.The land is the best way to give back to human beings, as much as you put in your labor, you can reap as much as you can.As long as there is a piece of land, as long as you are diligent, you can survive.

Once he owns a piece of land, he has the capital to survive in this world.

Yan Xining thanked Yan Ke with a big gift: "Thank you."

Yan Ke returned the gift in a hurry: "The princess is serious! It is the job of the subordinates to relieve the master's worries. If there is any work that needs to be done in the future, just call us."

Yan Xining smiled and said nothing, these guards were haunted, how did he know how to call them?And he felt that there was nothing in Wenzhangyuan that he couldn't do by himself. He already had the land, so what else could trouble him?

When Yan Ke left Wenzhang Garden with the food box, he glanced back. Yan Xining was squatting next to the vegetable field. Even though he was so far away, Yan Ke could still see the satisfied smile on his face.

A thought popped into Yan Ke's mind: Maybe it was God's arrangement for Yan Xining to enter the mansion. Could such a person be worse than Yan Zi?

When Yan Ke returned to the residence with the food box, his subordinates swarmed to the door.The leader's shirt was stained with mud, and he didn't even have time to change his clothes.

As soon as Yan Ke appeared, the guards smiled and flattered him with green eyes: "Hey, boss~"

Where did Yan Ke not know what they were expecting?He handed the food box to the subordinate closest to him: "Choose one for the master first." He had to go back and change some medicine.

The subordinate held the food box and smiled happily: "Don't worry, boss!"

After finishing speaking, he ran towards the dining hall with the food box: "Brothers! The princess has cooked something delicious! Don't grab it, don't grab it, save the boss and master's portion first!"

The concubine's craftsmanship is so good, the humble loach is stewed by him for miles, and the taste is even more fragrant than the stewed meat by the chef of the palace.They were digging mud in the yard bitterly, but the commander was feasting in the kitchen.Fortunately, they had good concentration, otherwise they would have lost their shovels and gone to the kitchen.

The corner of Yan Ke's lips twitched slightly: "No prospect." It's just a few loaches, look at this group of people who have never seen the world!

When he finished changing the medicine and came outside the dining hall, there was a loud noise in the dining hall. This was the reaction only a cook in the palace had cooked.

As soon as they stepped into the dining hall, the subordinates praised: "Commander! This fish is so delicious!" "It's crispy and delicious, the boss asked the princess to cook more!" "Yes, yes, it's not enough! "

Yan Ke's expression was serious, but his eyes were full of connivance: "You also know that the one in Wenzhangyuan is a princess, he is not a cook. Just taste it, how can you eat it with your belly open?"

Besides, this group of guys are all idiots, if they open their mouths to eat, Yan Xining will have no time to cook.

But Yan Ke has a feeling that loach is an appetizer, and Wenzhangyuan will have more delicacies waiting for them to taste in the future!As long as we have a good relationship with Yan Xining, why worry about nothing to eat in the future?

While talking, he finally sat in his seat. Just as his back leaned against the back of the chair, his face twitched slightly: "Hiss."

Those bastards in the punishment hall didn't know how to attack him, and a layer of skin on his back was peeled off.

As soon as Yan Ke sat down, a servant held a bowl of rice with both hands.Looking at a big bowl of rice, Yan Ke always felt that he was not hungry.It shouldn't be, usually at this time, he is already hungry.

oh!Thinking about it, he ate cakes and drank tea at Wenzhang Garden.The small garlic cakes made of rice noodles are not easy to digest, no wonder I haven't felt hungry until now.

Forget it, let him eat a few loaches to deal with it, right?

So he stretched out his chopsticks towards the food box in front of him, and the chopsticks quickly touched the plate at the bottom, but after a few pinches, they didn't touch anything.Yan Ke took a look and saw that the two plates in the food box were bare, with only a little juice remaining.

Commander Yan's mouth twitched: "Day." Where's his loach!

Seeing that he had a bad expression, the subordinates quickly brought out a small plate from one side: "Boss, yours is here! I keep it for you!"

It's okay if you don't watch it, but Yan Ke almost lost his breath after watching it.I saw a half-loach lying horizontally in the small plate, and the half was obviously taken from a brother's mouth, and rice sticky sticks were still stuck on it.

Yan Ke gave them a hard look: "I shouldn't have believed you!"

The subordinate who was scolded was not annoyed, he smiled and scratched his hair foolishly: "It's so delicious~"

Faced with his subordinates who followed him through life and death, Yan Ke naturally would not be angry with them because of a few loach.He put the small dish on the table: "Have you left it for the master?"

The subordinate's eyes lit up: "Keep it!"

As he said that, he brought another small plate as if offering a treasure, and there was a lone loach lying horizontally in the plate: "After comparison among the brothers, this one is the biggest and fattest! This one is dedicated to the master!"

Yan Ke's eyes darkened, his expression twisted, and after holding back for a long time, he finally uttered a word: "Day..."

The next few days were fine and the silt gradually dried in the sun.Yan Xining hammered the large silt into small pieces with a hoe, and mixed some plant ash into the soil.Under the guidance of craftsmen in Fuchu, he planted the first batch of seeds.

The waiting time is long, tormented, and full of hope.

The first thing he did when he woke up these few mornings was to squat next to the vegetable field to see if his seeds had germinated. The first thing that responded to his expectation was green vegetables.Just today, he saw a hazy green layer emerging from the vegetable field, and the small sprouts with round rapeseed shells poked their heads out curiously.

Yan Xining squatted by the vegetable field and squinted her eyes with a smile, look, his land has paid him back!

At this moment, Bai Tao came back with a big basket: "Brother Ning! The dishes are here!"

Yan Xining decided to cook for herself the day after she started cooking loach in braised sauce in Wenzhang Garden.As long as some vegetables and meat are sent regularly, he and Bai Tao will not be hungry.

It's not that he is lofty and disdainful of the cooks of the palace, but that it rained a few days ago, and the little maid who delivered the food had a high fever after getting wet in the rain.After hearing Bai Tao say this, he felt very sorry.

Anyway, sooner or later you will be independent, it doesn't matter how many days earlier!After talking to Steward Leng about this, the servants brought fresh vegetables and meat.

Yan Xining stepped forward to take the bamboo basket, looked down, and saw two turnips, a handful of young leeks, a handful of sunflower, an old hen and an arm-long pork belly in the basket.All the vegetables and meat are fresh and plentiful, and they are carefully selected at first glance.

Yan Xining smiled and said, "What a fresh dish! Have you thanked the person who brought the food?"

Bai Tao showed his white teeth: "Say it! By the way, just now I met two big guards, and they asked me, what delicious food are you going to do today?"

Yan Xining looked at the ingredients in the bamboo basket and made a decision: "Let's eat wontons with shepherd's purse and meat, and we will make more later."

In Wenzhangyuan, he and Bai Tao are not the only ones eating now, they also have guests.

A few days ago, he started to tidy up the woods in the Plum Garden. When he walked up the small bridge with a saw or a hoe, two guards appeared behind him.

The guards took the tools from Yan Xining's hands with a simple smile and strode into the woods. At that moment, Yan Xining felt that he was a general ordering troops on the battlefield, and the guards would fight wherever he pointed.

In just a few days, Pinmei Garden changed its appearance.The dead grass and vines all over the ground turned into haystacks piled up on the side of the stone bridge, and the clumps of miscellaneous trees were brought down, leaving only a few good-looking fruit trees and flowering trees.

Fortunately, the guards are strong and strong, and fortunately Pinmei Garden has not been a forbidden area for a long time. I believe it will not take long for Pinmei Garden to sort it out.

The guards worked hard, and Yan Xining reciprocated.Steward Leng gave a lot of ingredients, so he made more dishes for the guards to eat at noon every day.

However, the guards are not as courageous as Yan Ke, they dare not eat in Wenzhang Garden.Yan Xining put the prepared food into the food box, and brought it home for additional meals when the guards ate.

He found that the guards gave him face, washing the bowls clean every time they returned.

For those who like to cook food, it is a great honor for the food they make to be eaten up by others. Yan Xining has a sense of accomplishment these days.

Hearing Yan Xining say the word shepherd's purse, Bai Tao was a little puzzled: "Master, is there no shepherd's purse here?"

Yan Xining smiled and pointed in the direction of Plum Garden: "Spring is at the head of the river where shepherd's purse blooms. Can spring be far behind when shepherd's purse comes?"

When he was cleaning the southeast corner of the plum garden yesterday, he found a large piece of fresh and tender shepherd's purse under the plum tree. It's time to let these shepherd's purse come into the pot!

The author has something to say:

Yan Ke: Master, this is the loach made by the princess herself. It is very delicious. You can try it.

Ji Song: ...

Yan Ke: The skin is crispy and the meat is rotten, delicious and delicious, with endless aftertaste.

Yan Ke: Master, for the sake of your servant's hard work, would you like to have a bite?Guaranteed no regrets.

Ji Song: Can you explain why I often receive a cake, a mouthful of soup, a loach, and a wonton during this time?Say, I'm not angry.
