Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!

It was still early, Jiang Yuzhu was washing and removing her makeup and was getting ready to go out when Shen Zhilan and Mo Yan came from the General's Mansion.

"Sister Yuzhu, let me tell you good news!"

Mo Yan took Jiang Yuzhu's hand affectionately, winked and said, "Guess!"

"Didn't you say you wanted to tell me? It's mysterious."

Jiang Yuzhu rubbed her chin with one hand and looked at Mo Yan and Shen Zhilan seriously.

Since it is good news, it must be related to the General's Mansion.

Seeing that she was being stared at, Shen Zhilan quickly lowered her head, twisting the handkerchief in her hands, and her ears turned red.

Jiang Yuzhu understood in her heart and asked with a smile: "Is there something big happy about my cousin?"

Apart from being pregnant, Jiang Yuzhu could not think of anything else for the time being.

Mo Yan stared in shock and said: "Sister Yuzhu, not only are you lucky and blessed, do you also have the ability to do calculations?"

A bowl of chicken soup was served for breakfast today. The chicken soup was not skimmed. When Shen Zhilan saw the yellow oil slick, she immediately felt nauseous.

"My mother asked the doctor to take her pulse, but she didn't expect that my sister-in-law is two months pregnant!"

After arriving in Beidi, Shen Zhilan's life was not very precise. Except for the occasional feeling of being tired after eating too much, she didn't feel any abnormality.

It is said that it is not easy to spread the news before three months of pregnancy, but Jiang Yuzhu is not an outsider.

"It's really not my clever plan, but my cousin's that's written all over her face."

Jiang Yuzhu patted the back of Shen Zhilan's hand, feeling happy for her from the bottom of her heart.

The Mo family is full of loyal people, and Mo Qianyu is considered a reliable person.

Now Shen Zhilan has established a firm foothold in the Mo family, is loved by her husband, and has no troublemakers, so her life is very good.

"Cousin, it's freezing and snowy outside, why don't you stay at home?"

Jiang Yuzhu made a suggestion, but Shen Zhilan shook her head and frowned slightly.

When she got the news this morning, she was almost overwhelmed with joy. There was only one obsession in her heart. Was the child who had no fate in her previous life come back to look for her again?

Every time she thought of this, Shen Zhilan became more determined to produce.

But thinking about the misery of her previous life, after Shen Zhilan was ecstatic, fear swept over her, almost engulfing her.

Things are changing.

After being reborn, Shen Zhilan got rid of the scum, punished the evil concubine, and married into the Mo family, which was a good match, and also changed the outcome of her father-in-law Mo Changchuan.

But how many of these were done by herself?

Shen Zhilan is not confident, she just wants to see Jiang Yuzhu.

Only Jiang Yuzhu's calmness could stabilize her anxious heart.

Unknowingly, in addition to sisterly affection, Shen Zhilan became more dependent on Jiang Yuzhu.

Originally, Mrs. Mo didn't approve of her daughter-in-law going out. When she heard that she was hanging out with Jiang Yuzhu, Mrs. Mo readily agreed and even urged: "Zhilan, if you hang out with Yuzhu more, maybe your child will be blessed with Yuzhu."

"Cousin, I see you brought dried chili peppers from the capital. Can I make a small request?"

Shen Zhilan stood beside Jiang Yuzhu, feeling extremely at ease.

She had an idea. While her cousin Xie Zhao was not at home, she planned to move there recently.

Not only that, Shen Zhilan was still praying in her heart that it would be best for her cousin to show up later.

"Yan'er and I are both hungry for the grilled fish you made!"

Shen Zhilan was helpless. She and Mo Yan ordered a set of tools from the blacksmith and put in all the seasonings according to what the master had learned, but the taste was just not authentic enough.

"That's fine, but it's best to use live fish."

There are frozen fish in the market, and the taste after thawing is very different from that of live fish.

The winter in the North is severe, and cold-water fish grow under the ice. Their meat is firm and tastes better than the fish in the capital.

Jiang Yuzhu took a look at the sky and suggested, "Why don't we go ice fishing by the river?"

She had already had an idea and just happened to catch up today.

Mo Yan clapped her hands and smiled like crescent moons: "Okay, okay!"

After the discussion, Mo Yan returned to the General's Mansion and brought two powerful guards to act as coachmen. The group divided into two carriages and headed straight to the largest river in the border town.

In winter in the Northland, the river is covered with a thick layer of snow.

After discussion, several people decided to set up their tent in the middle of the river.

The red carp is responsible for lighting the stove. When the chimney emits black smoke, the tent becomes much warmer.

Shen Zhilan circled around Jiang Yuzhu, rubbed her hands and said, "The fish I caught is now grilled. I'm already drooling before I even eat it!"

You need oil before grilling the fish. Since you are going to fry the fish, the oil should not be wasted.

Ginger Yuzhu is chopped with carrots, added with tofu and vermicelli, then wrapped in a thin layer of noodles and fried into vegetarian meatballs.

In addition to vegetarian meatballs, there are also fried peanuts and sweet potato chunks.

After Jiang Yuzhu made a pot of dates, Mo Yan was even more excited: "Sister Yuzhu, can dates be fried?"

"You will know after you taste it when it comes out of the pot!"

Dates are transported from the northwest. The dried dates are soaked in hot water until they become as sweet as honey. Remove the pit in the middle, wrap them in thin noodles and add black and white sesame seeds. Put them in a frying pan until they become golden and take them out.

"Quick, have a taste!"

This was something Jiang Yuzhu had eaten in modern times. At first she thought it would not be delicious, but after taking a bite, she realized what she had missed.

“Charred on the outside and tender on the inside, sweet from the dates mixed with the aroma of sesame seeds, delicious!”

Mo Yan packed a box and said she was going to take it back to her house as a snack for her mother.

Outside the tent, the guards had already cut through the ice.

The two of them are very experienced in ice fishing and are explaining it to Hong Li and other maids.

"One temptation, two fragrances, three teases."

After opening the hole in the ice, the fish will be unable to wait and run away. You need to use strong-smelling bait to lure the fish back instead of being too busy setting the hook.

The guard explains the techniques, and Hong Jin tries it out.

Soon, the fish float on the water clicked, and Hong Jin was still stunned.

"Lift the pole!"

The guard reminded Hong Jin that he was a step too slow to react. When he lifted the fishing rod up, all the bait on it was gone and the fish ran away.

“Don’t you say that fish in winter are stupid?”

Hong Jin stared blankly, the empty fishhook seemed to be a mockery of her.

After the experience of failure, Red Carp quickly picked up the game.

"Moved!"

Hong Li shouted, and Hong Jin hurriedly lifted the fishing rod, but failed again. This time the fish was scared away.

The two guards looked at each other and smiled bitterly, took the fishing rod and said, "Let's do it."

If you wait for a few girls to go fishing, you may not be able to eat grilled fish even when the sun goes down.

With guards on the move, the fishing speed is very fast.

Hongxiu prepared a big bucket, scooped out ice water, and kept the fat fish in the ice water.

Jiang Yuzhu picked and chose two medium-sized fish to put in the frying pan.

"The fish is too big and not tasty."

In addition to tofu, cabbage, fungus and onion, Jiang Yuzhu adds fried peanuts and coriander picked from the greenhouse to enhance the flavor in the winter in the North.

It only took a moment, but the soup base of the grilled fish was bubbling with bubbles, and the spicy flavor overflowed.

"If there are lotus root slices, tofu skin, and dried bamboo shoots, it will be more fragrant."

It came suddenly, and the food in the house was limited, so Jiang Yuzhu was not prepared.

There are live fish now, so keep them in the water first, and then make a big table tomorrow.

"In addition to grilled fish, you can also make stewed fish, steamed fish, braised fish, braised fish, boiled fish, sauce fish, sweet and sour fish..."

Mo Yan murmured as he ate, wishing he could swallow the whole fish in one go.

"Save people!"

The sisters were scrambling to eat grilled fish when cries were heard not far away.
