Rebirth of farming for a living

In the main room, Du Zhaoyang's face was very red, and he could tell from the heat that he was being burned.

Li Qiuyan smiled and handed a spoon to him: "If the boiled pork slices are too spicy, try this tofu mixed with rice. It's very fragrant."

After saying that, Li Qiuyan took the lead in scooping a spoonful of Mapo Tofu into his bowl and stirred it gently.

The rice and the red tofu are just so sticky when mixed together. Some people who are more particular about it may find it unsightly.

But Li Qiuyan likes to mix this kind of dish with rice. It is full of flavor and goes well with rice.

Du Zhaoyang looked at Li Qiuyan's small bowl and didn't feel it was unsightly. He even swallowed involuntarily.

After the spicy taste in his mouth passed, he no longer disliked it. He followed Li Qiuyan's example and took a spoonful of tofu and put it into the bowl.

The spiciness of Mapo Tofu is milder than that of boiled pork slices.

Du Zhaoyang's eyes lit up after taking a bite.

The tofu is full of soup, with thick soup hanging on it, and some minced meat mixed in.

The flavors are rich.

Eating like this is really good for rice. Du Zhaoyang ate tofu and occasionally put some boiled meat slices with chopsticks.

I finished two bowls of rice before I stopped using my chopsticks.

The spinach and egg soup is now just warm enough to be eaten. Just take a sip and it's very delicious.

Du Zhaoyang felt that the hot feeling in his mouth had lessened, and then he had time to talk to Li Qiuyan.

While holding her chin with some admiration and watching Li Qiuyan eating one bite after another, she asked: "Why is this meat called boiled pork slices?"

Du Zhaoyang would never be able to stutter in vain.

If it was really boiled as I thought it was, I'm afraid it would be okay.

Looking at the red oil on top, Du Zhaoyang couldn't tell what this dish had to do with boiling.

Li Qiuyan couldn't stop eating this very appetizing dish.

After hearing Du Zhaoyang's question, he reluctantly stopped his chopsticks and picked up the soup bowl to drink slowly: "Because the meat slices are cooked with water."

Li Qiuyan's matter-of-fact answer made Du Zhaoyang stunned.

Well, makes sense.

"What about this, Mapo Tofu?" Du Zhaoyang asked tentatively.

"Of course it's the tofu made by Mapo."

Well, the expected answer.

It seems to be fine.

"You're not called Mapo." Du Zhaoyang still wanted to find a loophole.

"The person who cooks this dish for the first time is called Mapo."

"Then where is she now? This Mapo Tofu is really delicious."

Du Zhaoyang still prefers Mapo tofu. For him, the boiled pork slices are a bit too spicy.

"Ma Po, she has passed away." Li Qiuyan looked a little sad.

This dynasty is different from the history I knew before, and I don’t even know if Mapo existed.

I had no choice but to pass it by in a perfunctory manner.

Du Zhaoyang realized that he might have mentioned Li Qiuyan's sad story, but curiosity still prevailed.

"Then you learned all these foods from Mapo?"

That Mapo must be very good to be able to think of such a dish, otherwise how could Li Qiuyan be so good at cooking at such a young age.

"Yes." Li Qiuyan simply followed Du Zhaoyang's words.

Not to mention, when Du Zhaoyang asked this question, he found a place for many of the things he knew.

After saying this, Li Qiuyan and Li Qiuyan drank all the soup and got up together.

I have Du Bajin to collect the bowls and chopsticks.

It's really convenient to have one more person like this.

It's okay to let Li Qiuyan cook, but it wouldn't be nice to wash the dishes after cooking.

Li Qiuyan was very satisfied with this meal.

As for Du Zhaoyang, apart from being a little bit spicy, he was also very satisfied with his food.

After Tingfeng made tea, Li Qiuyan and Du Zhaoyang sat opposite each other, slowly sipping tea and digesting their food.

Du Zhaoyang picked up the tureen and blew it briefly before speaking again: "Can the two dishes you cooked today be sold in Yipinxuan?"

Li Qiuyan glanced at Du Zhaoyang in surprise when he heard this. He didn't expect that Du Zhaoyang would take the initiative to mention this matter.

It can be seen that I have really improved a lot.

"It's possible, but it's not very suitable now."

"Why isn't it suitable?" Du Zhaoyang asked further.

"First, the weather is too hot." Li Qiuyan blocked Du Zhaoyang's words with a few simple words.

Also, when I was eating just now, I was sweating a lot.

You know, Li Qiuyan has an ice shop at home, and there is no shortage of ice here.

But there is no shortage of ice, after all, the effect of putting ice is very limited.

On the other hand, eating this food is too hot and makes you sweat easily.

Du Zhaoyang secretly thought that it was a pity. If this spicy dish was paired with sour plum soup, the sour plum soup would have to be sold a lot more to reduce the spiciness.

But we couldn't just let it go. Du Zhaoyang continued to inquire: "What about the second one?"

"Secondly, I want to keep this chili for us to use. The store sells hot and sour noodles in winter, so we need a lot of chili."

"I see there are still a lot of peppers. Didn't you say they are still growing at home?" Du Zhaoyang was confused.

Naturally, he would not think about cheating on his own business. After all, he could make a lot of money by partnering with Li Qiuyan.

Li Qiuyan lowered his head and smiled: "I also want to open another hot pot restaurant."

Naturally, this pepper is going to be sold to Yipinxuan, but not now.

Just in case, keep some for yourself.
