Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth
Chapter 84 Secret Spices
However, because of this, Nanny Zhen's health deteriorated and she passed away within a few years. It is said that my mother had just married my father not long ago at that time.
Gu Qingzhi couldn't help but hold Gu Wangshi's arm and comforted her softly, "Mother, don't be sad. Maybe Zhen Madam is happy for you when she sees that you are living such a good life now."
Gu Wang looked at her little girl with satisfaction, finally her love was not in vain. She smiled and nodded, "Yes."
Then he looked at the dried persimmon in his hand and said, "This dried persimmon is quite ordinary, but it is not cheap."
Gu Qingzhi immediately realized that this was a good opportunity, "Mom, I remember you made persimmon cakes before?"
She remembered that her mother had made persimmon cakes when she was a child. She had the impression that they were very delicious. She wondered how many times more delicious they were than this. But, for some reason, she had not seen her mother make them in the past few years.
Then she thought about it and realized that the family had been experiencing misfortunes one after another in the past few years. Illnesses and medical treatment all cost money, and her father had lost his job at the academy. One could imagine the pressure on her mother's shoulders, so she was no longer in the mood to deal with these things.
The persimmon cakes I bought at the market today were two cents each. They are neither cheap nor tasty. It would be nice if they could make some, even if they can eat them themselves.
Moreover, the wild persimmons on the mountains here are really sweet. This may be a regional characteristic. This may be the reason why the persimmon cakes made by A Niang are so delicious?
Of course, it is undeniable that A Niang’s cooking skills are good.
"Why, Qing'er, do you want to eat?"
"Yeah, mom, the persimmon cakes sold here are really average in taste, the ones made by mom are still better!"
Gu Wang lightly tapped Gu Qingzhi's nose and said lovingly, "Okay, when we go up the mountain to pick persimmons tomorrow, leave some at home and I'll make some for you, my little greedy cat!"
When I went to sell embroidery today, Madam Chen charged 30% higher price than before. Don't underestimate this 30%, it is a considerable income.
Moreover, I heard from Qing'er that they had made some income from selling mountain products before, especially the yellow bone fish that day, which sold for 3 strings of money!
Qing'er also gave her 1 guan for household expenses.
I also told her that things at home will get better and better in the future!
On the way back just now, they made a lot of silk flowers. Qing'er also said that she would go to the cloth shop next time to see if Mrs. Chen would accept them.
Gu Wangshi had a feeling that Madam Chen would definitely accept such beautiful and exquisite silk flowers, and that these silk flowers would set off a new trend in the county after they came out. Of course, this would also include the new patterns given by Qing'er!
In this way, the situation at home will really get better and better.
The pressure on her shoulders was no longer so great, and she felt more relaxed. Now she was ready to prepare some delicious food for her daughter.
My daughter likes to eat persimmon cakes, so let’s make some. She can spoil herself.
"By the way, you used to like eating that sweet osmanthus sauce. We can pick some osmanthus flowers and make some."
Some of the osmanthus trees are in bloom now.
"Mom, I want to eat more osmanthus cakes!"
"Okay, okay, I'll satisfy your request."
"Mom is so nice!" Gu Qingzhi hugged Gu Wangshi's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Okay, stop shaking. When you pick persimmons and osmanthus flowers, mother will make it for you!"
"Okay, mother, I'll make you something delicious later!"
Gu Wang was a little curious. What delicious food was there?
Gu Qingzhi said mysteriously, "Mother, you will know in a moment."
She ran to the kitchen and took out the hairy chestnuts her brother had brought her yesterday. Her brother had already peeled the shells for her. She took them to the yard and started to clean them up. She decided to make some fried chestnuts and chestnut cake for her mother today.
Gu Wang was sitting in the front hall and saw what her daughter was doing, although she didn't know what she wanted to do.
But her recent behavior made her realize clearly that her daughter is now much more sensible, so she just let her do what she wants.
Gu Qingzhi fiddled with it for a while. She first washed the chestnuts, cut them open, soaked them in water for a while, then took them out and put them in a bamboo basket to drain the water.
Then she went back to her room and took out some bags of herbs and spices that she had bought at the clinic and found in the mountains. She had already sorted out all the herbs and spices and put them in individual bags.
After returning to the yard, he took out the pestle and mortar, cleaned it, grabbed some herbs from one of the bags and put them in, and began to grind them carefully until they were ground into powder, which he put into a small bowl on the side.
I took several other herbs and spices, ground them into powder one by one, and put them into different small bowls. Looking at the powder in several small bowls, I estimated that this should be enough.
Then I stood up. Hiss, I didn't feel any pain in my arms just now, but now I feel a little sore in my arms.
Shaking her hands, she went over to look at the chestnuts and found that the moisture had been drained out, so she could start frying them now.
She immediately took the chestnuts and the ground powder into the kitchen.
When Gu Wang saw her daughter enter the kitchen, she followed her in, only to find her daughter standing in front of the stove in a daze. On the stove was a large basin of washed chestnuts and bowls of powder of some unknown substance, which smelled strangely fragrant.
"Qing'er, do you want to eat chestnuts?"
Hairy chestnuts are delicious when cooked, and Mrs. Gu Wang just thought that her daughter wanted to eat cooked chestnuts.
Yes, she did want to eat hairy chestnuts, but she wanted to eat chestnuts of a different flavor.
Gu Wang looked at her dazed daughter and asked, "Mother, can you help me light the fire?"
Gu Qingzhi was about to say no, but Gu Wangshi sat down and started to make a fire without saying anything.
She quickly lit a fire and saw that her daughter looked nervous.
It seems that my daughter has her own little secret. Gu Wang took a curious look at the things on the stove, then smiled and shook her head, walked out of the kitchen and went to the front hall.
The fabric I bought today is still there and has not been put away.
In addition, I have to pick out the scraps of cloth. My daughter said that they can be made into purses, sachets, and even handkerchiefs. This has opened up new ideas for her. Indeed, some of the materials are much better than those she used before.
Gu Qingzhi also had her own little idea. She had never mixed this kind of spice before, and she didn't know if she could succeed.
It’s better not to let my mother see it for now.
What if it’s not done well?
She recalled the method of stir-frying ingredients she had seen in ancient books, took a deep breath, and thought, what should she do?
Oops, I almost forgot, the stove is so high, she can’t reach it. Oh, I didn’t expect the first step to be so difficult.
She looked around and found the spot, so she ran out to the dining room, brought in a small stool, stood on it to try it, and it was just the right size.
By the time she finished washing the pot, she was already sweating profusely. Gu Qingzhi took a short break, added some firewood to the stove, and arranged the small bowls in order.
I remember that ancient books said that there is a sequence for which spice to add first and which spice to add later. If the sequence is wrong, the fried ingredients will not achieve good results.
