There is a small oriental community near the market that Belle usually goes to. Not only Chinese live there, but also Indians, Japanese and Thais. When Jane went there for the first time, she felt as if she had discovered a new continent.

It is said that the vegetable growing level of the people of the flower growers can break through the universe. On the vendors of the flower growers, Jane not only saw ordinary tomatoes and radishes, but also juicy Chinese cabbage and Chinese cabbage, bean sprouts, bean sprouts and peanut sprouts, which are more common in Europe. Cabbage, lettuce, mushrooms, parsley, cauliflower, etc. There are also leeks, eggplants, winter melons, amaranth, taro, etc. that are rare in the West. Jane even saw Northeast sauerkraut and Sichuan pickles... You can see the "suppliers" behind this stall We are from all corners of the country.

What Jane admired the most was that these flower growers actually made tofu!Where did you get so many soybeans?

Jane: I don’t even support my husband, but I will serve a flower grower who can grow vegetables anywhere in the world.

Probably because many dishes are uncommon and won’t be cooked. The business of the vegetable stall is not very good. Their main customer is a Chinese restaurant, but soon the maid of Holmes (Mycroft)’s family also became a vegetable stall. regulars.

To be on the safe side, all Jane's ingredients are cooked thoroughly, and there is nothing like salad.Pretentiously, she asked the florist about how to make unusual vegetables, and then "improved" Chinese dishes appeared in front of Mycroft. Of course, this time she also planned to cook a few dishes to entertain the Holmes couple.

It's just winter, the weather is getting colder, and there is a stew that is excellent... well, it's actually Jane who wants to eat beef, and she's going to make a tomato beef stew.Cut the beef into cubes, peel the tomato, er, because the usual spices that Jane remembers (Jane: I don’t have star anise) can’t be bought at the Huahuajia vegetable stand, so she... used some Indian spices.

Jane: I’m really awesome~b( ̄▽ ̄)d

Not only did Jane get the right spices from the Indians, she also bought a small packet of curry powder, which is an authentic local Indian curry, let's make an Indian version of curry potato chicken... er, let's not talk about chicken , civilized you and me~(~ ̄▽ ̄)~

But after Jane adjusted some Indian curry, I found out that the aroma of Indian curry is too strong, and there are chili and mustard. After buying some whipped cream, I felt that the Holmes couple should be able to accept it... It's considered an improvement.

In fact, Indian curry was originally served with rice, but this time there is no such thing. It can only be served with bread.

There are two adult men, it must be less to cook only two meat dishes, but they are all big meat and quite boring, so Jane made egg steamed pork.Usually when making steamed meat with eggs, an egg is placed on a plate of minced meat stuffing. Jane is different. She puts a third of the minced meat in a bowl of steamed eggs and sprinkles some cumin on top. It tastes delicious and delicious. I don't feel tired.

Europeans are used to eating raw vegetables, but boiled fruits, but now it’s dangerous to eat raw vegetables, so they started to barbecue.Roasted cauliflower, roasted eggplant, roasted potatoes, roasted kale, roasted mushrooms, spread the prepared roast sauce on top, sprinkle with peppercorns, cut two slices of lemon inside, cut an apple, spread bacon, and sprinkle with cheese shavings, served Sprinkle some coriander seasoning when the pot is hot.This dish had to be cooked fresh, and it was easy to prepare and put it in the kitchen, and only let Belle put it in the oven when Mr. and Mrs. Holmes came.

After eating barbecue, the final dessert is simply stewed pears.It’s not popular to peel the fruit these days. The pears are washed whole, and a piece is cut off from the top. Just dig out the core without digging it through. Just steam the whole thing until it’s soft, put it on a plate and put it inside the pears. Put in honey, and put the lid back on, it looks like a whole pear again.It would be more white and lovely if sprinkled with some icing sugar, but Jane and Mr. Holmes don't like too sweet, so she only gave Mrs. Holmes and Mycroft those two.

Mr. and Mrs. Holmes did not come empty-handed. Mr. Holmes brought important news. As soon as he came to say hello, he went to the study with Mycroft to discuss matters. Mrs. Holmes took Jane up and down to visit. their new home.

"It's really hard work for you this time, my dear. It must be a difficult day, right?" Mrs. Holmes took a closer look at Jane's face. "She looks pretty good."

"Thanks to Dad for helping us prepare so many supplies, otherwise we would not be able to do it alone. Thanks to all the preparations, I dared to stay here with Mycroft. There was a period of time that made everyone very nervous." Jane said sincerely.

"Oh? What's the matter?" Mrs. Holmes looked at Jane.Jian Jian told about the cholera patients also appearing on Golden Rose Street.

"Oh, my God, my God, it's too careless." Mrs. Holmes cast a reproachful look at Jane, "I understand what you're doing, if you don't stop the spread of the disease in time, it is very likely that the whole The whole street will suffer, but... I want you to know that we are worried about you."

"I'm sorry." Jane followed Mrs. Holmes's words and bowed her head to admit her mistake. "Actually, I was also very scared at that time." She shook Mrs. Holmes' hand vigorously.

"Oh, Jane." Mrs. Holmes felt pity in her heart, and she patted Jane comfortingly, "everything will be fine."

"Yes, the worst is over." Jane and Mrs. Holmes looked at each other and smiled.

Holmes and his son chatted for a long time in the study room. Mrs. Holmes was very interested. She looked around every room, and even took a look at the room where Jane prepared the disinfectant.

"Is this the smell in the room?" Mrs. Holmes didn't approach, mainly because there were too many glass bottles here, and she was a little worried that if she broke which one... would something happen?

"No, it's just one of them." Jane didn't mention the chemical name of the disinfectant either. She guessed that Mrs. Holmes was not very interested in this. "This one is sprayed in the room once a week, and this one is put in the water to disinfect the water." ..."

"Will it be okay to put it in water? Can you drink it?" Mrs. Holmes asked curiously.

"It only takes a small amount to purify a bucket of water, and you can't drink it when you boil it." Jane pointed to another bottle, "That one is for Mycroft, if he wants to take a carriage To go on patrol, uh, this is the word I use, I mean when he goes to see the project, I will ask him to bring a small bottle just in case, and then just mix it with water and sprinkle it. The seed is powder, which is easy to carry.”

"Sounds really troublesome."

"It's not troublesome until he comes back. As soon as he comes back, he washes his hands and face with soap. I don't let him bring in the coat, pants, shoes, and gloves he wears outside. Belle has to spray the mud with disinfectant, and then Just put it at the door to disperse the smell. I made him a dozen shirts, handkerchiefs and socks, and I changed them every day. After washing, I boiled them in boiling water for 10 minutes. He already has a special pot. These are consumables, and after a few weeks of wearing They can't be worn any more, and then I burn them all in case something bad might get on them."

Mrs. Holmes was dumbfounded. "My God," she murmured, "I admire you like a king. You are so careful with Mycroft."

"Every time he said that he would go to see the project, I was on tenterhooks. Fortunately, it was still useful."

"really."

After Mycroft and Mr. Holmes came out of the study, they always felt that there was something wrong with the way my mother looked at them.

They are all from their own family, and they all eat at the small table, so there is no need to pay attention to the order of serving the dishes. Jane asked Belle to serve all the dishes in one go, which happened to be full and within reach of everyone.

Mr. Holmes loves beef as much as Mycroft and his son, but Mrs. Holmes is very curious about the new taste of India, which she quite likes.

Mrs. Holmes blushed and sighed, "It tastes weird, but, huh, it's quite good, huh, it hits my soul, oops." She picked up the glass and drank a few mouth.

You just like spicy food, right?The others stared at Mrs. Holmes and thought of going together.

Compared with Mr. Holmes, he doesn't like spicy food very much, he seems to prefer a slightly sweet and sour taste, Jane secretly remembered it.She was quite proud that her Mr. Holmes would eat anything and was not picky at all.

Mycroft: ? ? ?

Mrs. Holmes inevitably chatted with Jane about the Indians in the nearby market, and Mr. Holmes then chatted with Mycroft about some British colonial policies and new inventions that have appeared in recent years.

Jane didn't understand their conversation very well, but she still remembered some knowledge from the middle school textbooks back then.Now, right now, is just the beginning of the second industrial revolution. However, Britain has not seized the opportunity of shifting from steam to electrification in time. In addition, colonial policies have also encountered various problems because they are no longer in line with the development of the times. As a result, Britain retreated from the ranks of first-class countries after entering the [-]th century, and the subsequent world war dealt a heavy blow to Britain.

When it comes to electrification, Jane thinks of a person. This genius flashed across the sky like a meteor, but left a heavy footprint in the history of electricity.

"Nikola Tesla." Jane murmured a name.

"What? Jane, who were you talking about?" Mycroft didn't hear clearly.

"Ah? Did I say something?" Jane didn't know that she actually said it, she suddenly let go of her thoughts, and said that the living Edison is now in the United States!

"You said Nikola Tesla just now. Do you know him?" Mr. Holmes heard clearly.

"Did I mention him? Please don't worry about it. It just occurred to me that I heard a professor in Cambridge tell people about this young man. He seems to be a Serb. He is a genius in physics... I just listened to it." One ear." Jane faltered, she knew such a person, but she didn't know his life story, what if this guy is still a primary school student?

Jane quickly changed the topic, "I read about the Vienna World Expo in the newspaper two days ago. I heard that it was also held in London before. What a pity. I wasn't even born at that time, otherwise I really want to see it with my own eyes. look."

"Do you want to go too?" Mrs. Holmes also came alive. "We can go together next summer. My dear and I also went to London that time, and that was the first time. The huge glass 'Crystal Palace' , is made by imitating the vein structure of Wang Lian. There are also many works of art and many wonderful things, which are really wonderful and worth seeing." The more I talked, the more I felt that this idea was good, and Mrs. Holmes turned to Mr. Holmes and said "It's rare to have a second chance. Why don't we go to Vienna for a few days this time?"

"It's still early, my wife. It's only November, so it won't start until tomorrow summer." Mr. Holmes replied calmly.

The author has something to say: Mr. Holmes: My wife wants to travel, what else can I do?The question is whether to take the son and daughter-in-law and the son as candles (light bulbs).
