Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

"Uncle Huo~ I'm here to honor you~" Lin Xia shouted at the top of her voice as she entered the door.

Huo An... -_-||

Zach... -_-||

When Lin Xia presented her two plates of carrot dishes, the two were speechless.

Huo An tasted the tribute from Lin Xia expressionlessly and said, "You brought me two plates of the most basic pickled radish. What do you want to do?"

Lin Xia: "Uncle Huo~Brother, didn't I just make this dish when I got the kitchen knife? I wanted to let you taste my cooking skills. If you don't believe me, ask Zach if he just gave me the kitchen knife this morning. I didn't stop for a moment. I was thinking about you guys when I made it, so I brought it to you. You still despise it. I'm so sad!"

Huo An saw Zach nodded in realization and looked embarrassed, and was amused by this fool: "Okay, you are filial."

Lin Xia...

Huo An finally felt a little happier when he saw Lin Xia choking successfully. He couldn't help but popularize it to Lin Xia, "You learned this pickled radish from Saibala, he only knows the simplest one. This sweet and sour radish is quite interesting, but it is also a very simple dish. You have to know that even pickled radish can be made in many ways, such as sour and spicy, sweet and spicy, and spicy. Different peppers have different spiciness, such as chili peppers, vine peppers, pickled peppers, sharp peppers, chili powder, chili oil, chili sauce, etc.

There are many flavors of non-spicy ones, including five-spice, salty and sweet, sour and sweet, and thirteen-spice. In addition to soaking in water to eat the pickled radish, you can also dry it for easy storage. The dried ones can be eaten directly, or washed and diced, and then processed with oil and seasonings for secondary processing, fried, or boiled with peanuts, soybean paste, and minced meat. Pickled radish can also be pickled to make flowers, you understand?"

Lin Xia and Zack were stunned by what they heard.

Lin Xia humbly asked: "Brother Huo, do you have a recipe for these radish dishes? Can you teach me a few?"

Huo An said proudly: "Your cooking skills are so poor now. Even if I give you a recipe, you still can't learn it. When you have learned 100 dishes, come back to me! Before that, you have to collect as many seasonings as possible. You know, in addition to the ingredients themselves, seasonings are also very important. At the critical moment, adding the right seasoning will make the dish taste different!"

Lin Xia followed his instruction and stared at Zach. Zach...

"I'll tell the delivery guys to keep an eye out for the seasonings and spices for me!"

Lin Xia was satisfied, and spent another 100G to play the apple guessing game with Huo An. There was no other way, Lin Xia was so short of money now, so she wanted to get rich quickly (don't learn from her!).

This time, Lin Xia guessed correctly twice and received 2 lottery tickets from Huo An. It turned out that as long as she didn't get the Moonlight Beauty 2 times, she could get as many lottery tickets as she guessed correctly!

Lin Xia went to the slot machine and guessed twice more. This time, she was lucky and guessed a set of consecutive numbers 2. Huo An exclaimed, "Lin Xia, you are so lucky. You can win the grand prize - a CD number 234! But you don't have a CD player! That's a pity. Without a CD player, your CD is useless! Come back when you have a CD player!"

Lin Xia... MMP

He didn't win anything from the second lottery, but Lin Xia talked to Huo An about the new merchant class, and he had a CD player for sale!

Ban looked at Lin Xia and finally advised earnestly: "You made the right decision to sell me that bottle of wine last time. If you get this thing again, remember to sell it to me, but don't give it to Ban, understand? What's that expression on your face~"

Lin Xia just stared at Huo An with an expression that said "you are a bad guy".

Huo An...

Forget it, good things don’t come easy to good people. This little girl has to suffer a loss before she can learn her lesson, otherwise she will think of herself as a profiteer every day!

That night, Lin Xia again had dinner at Huo An's place under the pretext of showing respect to him. This time, she provided her own pickled vegetables - pickled radish, pickled cucumber, sweet and sour radish, sweet and sour cucumber. Huo An was so angry that he kept blowing his beard. As a last resort, Zach provided a big fish as a favor, allowing Huo An to fish. Lin Xia left again with a bulging belly.

It was only 6 o'clock in the evening when they left the beach. Lin Xia was in no hurry to go home. She continued to wander around the town, determined to let everyone she met taste her radish dishes.

First, he went north and came to the church. He gave Carter a plate of pickled radish. He said gratefully, "Thank you. I just don't have a job. Thank you for your kindness. I will teach you how to make desserts that children love! Pudding - the kitchen utensils need a kitchen knife, a stew pot, and an oven. The seasoning needs sugar. The ingredients need eggs, milk, honey, and various fruits. You can also add chocolate to make chocolate pudding. Children also like it very much!"

After Lin Xia thanked him, she went to the hospital next door. Although it was already off work, Dortmund was still in the hospital. Of course, he lived on the second floor of the hospital. She gave him a plate of sweet and sour radish. He frowned but accepted it. It seems that he didn't like it very much!

Then I went to the grocery store, but the door was locked. It seemed that they had closed on time!

When we arrived at the mayor's house, we found that the mayor Thomas and his son Harris, the only policeman in the town, were having dinner. We just happened to serve them a dish of snacks - sweet and sour cucumbers. They were both very happy!

We continued to nurse Ellie's house. Ellie, her grandmother Ellen, and her younger brother You were also having dinner. A plate of pickled cucumbers was also served. The old grandmother was very happy and liked the dish very much.

Then we went to the home of Mary, a girl from the library. Her father, plant researcher Bakir, and Anna, one of the three square dancers, were also eating and served pickled radishes. The three of them expressed their gratitude! Anna was also very happy and said, "I didn't expect you like cooking so much. If you have time in the future, you can come to my place on Saturday afternoons and I will teach you how to make desserts!"

Lin Xia was surprised: "Okay, thank you!"

Lin Xia continued to the orchard owner's house and found that only Mana, one of the three square dance groups, was at home. Dick had finished his meal and went out. Mana was cleaning the table, and Lin Xia brought sweet and sour radish, which made Mana happy. She held Lin Xia tightly and started chatting: "Hey, I don't know if I should tell you, my daughter is going out, and Dick will definitely go out drinking every night in the future. I'm so worried."

Lin Xia...

Mana: "I'm bored alone, so I try to find someone to talk to, but I can't get rid of the loneliness without my child. If she gets married, I won't miss her too much... Oh, by the way, you came here alone, right? Hey, why did you come here...

Ah, you often give gifts to people in town? If you want to give gifts, you should give gifts to everyone. If you only give gifts to young boys, people will say bad things about you, but I don't think you are that kind of person.

Oh, by the way, everyone in the town has different preferences. Have you figured them out? It's best for you to give them different gifts and then see how they react to know their preferences. If you ask them in person, they won't tell you. You have to learn to read their expressions! For example, I like the gift you gave me now very much. Thank you!"

Lin Xia...
