"Oh my god, this is unbelievable! Nowadays, it was even more difficult to eat vegetables than meat. In the future, fresh vegetables could be eaten all year round. No matter how expensive vegetables were, they could not be more expensive than meat. He did not expect the opposite to happen. Fresh vegetables were even more expensive than meat, and it was not something that ordinary people could afford. Even if he couldn't eat the good vegetables, he should at least let them eat some carrots and cabbages!”
"Potato is not that durable, and there are no good storage methods. It's probably difficult to promote it now. However, he should be able to find some sweet potatoes. Logically speaking, the people who were preparing to plant sweet potatoes should have already raised the seedlings. He could ask them for some sweet potato seedlings. The sweet potato leaves and stems could be stir-fried and eaten. The sweet potato leaves could also be used to make steamed vegetables. I'm so talented. I actually thought of this perfect way to solve the problem of eating vegetables!”
"Oh right, can we ask? Every household should have prepared dried vegetables or pickled cabbage and radish. It was impossible to just look at the cornbread in winter. Who could stand it if they didn't eat some vegetables?”
Lin Yuanshan thought in his heart while he blurted out some of the things he knew. Since a clever housewife can't cook without rice, then he would solve your problem first. The rest would be the clever housewife's problem. He didn't expect it to be so difficult to eat a plate of vegetables at this time. Even the landlord didn't have any leftovers!
"Chun Niang, get someone to go down and ask if you can buy some pickled vegetables or cellar-stored cabbages from them. He had been eating meat since this morning and had already eaten two meals in a row. At night, he would make a plate of vegetables to eat. He also wanted to see if there were any bean sprouts. If there were, he would buy some back. "If they don't want money, we can use food to exchange with them. We can go to a few more shops. After all, we have a large number of people, so our demand for food will be very high.”
"If it can't be solved in the village, arrange for someone to go to the neighboring county to buy a batch of vegetables tomorrow. Buy more and try to ensure the monthly vegetable needs of 200 people. As for chickens, ducks, and pigs, there's no need to buy them from the village below. Tomorrow, someone will send over a batch of chicken, pork, mutton, and beef. It's enough for us to eat for a month.”
"You need to worry about the food. Grind the wheat into flour and eat rice for the next few days. If the flour needed to be ground, grind more at once, not just a little bit. Try to ensure the monthly flour demand of 200 people. Tell everyone to eat rice first. After this period of time, they can eat pancakes or steamed buns.”
"You don't have to worry about the daily seasonings. I've already asked someone to buy some back. They'll be delivered tomorrow. I bought 2000 catties of oil, salt and vinegar each at once. It's enough for the 100 of us to eat for a long time. If he ate sparingly, he could eat for a year without any problems.”
"As for the pots and pans, we need to buy a new batch of them. Tomorrow, arrange for them to be bought. We must buy more so that we don't have to go out to buy them in the future. For example, buying hundreds of iron pots at a time was not too much. In the future, there would only be more and more people eating at home. More importantly, don't forget to buy more coal and charcoal. Whether it was for heating or cooking, these were all essential.”
"It can be said that there are thousands of things in the kitchen that need Chun Niang to handle. If there's anything missing, you can arrange for someone to buy it. It doesn't matter even if you buy the same thing. Go to the storeroom tomorrow and get the money. Get as much as you need. Try to arrange the kitchen properly within two days. Goudan also asked him to continue following you, and you can choose some more people to help. Considering that there will be more people eating in the future, you can choose ten people first. If it's not enough in the future, you can continue recruiting.”
"Alright, that's all I have to say. Give me a bowl of porridge first to fill my stomach. Then give me that chicken drumstick to fill my stomach first. Wan 'er, tell Chun Niang what you want to eat. I won't care about you for now. I'll start eating first!”
Lin Yuanshan directly bit into the drumstick. After chewing for a moment, he blew on the hot porridge and carefully took a sip. After realizing that it was not very hot, he began to gulp it down, looking like he was wolfing it down. Wan 'er couldn't help but smile at his behavior. She didn't expect her young master to have such a side. It seemed that not only was he tired today, but he was also hungry!
"Young Master, hurry up and eat! I'm not very hungry now. Chunniang, give me a bowl of porridge and two boiled eggs. I don't want anything else for the time being. I'm also waiting to eat stir-fried cabbage and meat with young master!”
Chun Niang looked at the two of them eating there and felt a little funny, but she couldn't laugh. The young master had arranged so many things at once, and he had to finish them in two days. It seemed that he would not even have much time to rest in the next two days. What made her even more furious was that he had to go to the village to buy some cabbages and radishes at night. It should be known that these vegetables were usually eaten by the servants. When had her young master ever eaten such things?
"Sigh, Young Master is really going to suffer! Now, he would go down and see if he could find some vegetables. When he found them, he would cook a small vegetable for the young master to eat. Aiya, how did I forget about the Chinese toon? I remember that there are a few Chinese toon trees in the backyard of the Lin family's old residence. This is the good season to eat Chinese toon. In a while, get someone to go to the trees behind and get some Chinese toon trees down. There were still a lot of useless eggs in the kitchen. He could just make a plate of Chinese toon scrambled eggs. Young Master would definitely love to eat them!”
Just as Chun Niang was thinking about it, her eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of a small grass on the ground. After seeing a touch of green, her mind moved. After carefully identifying it, she realized that it was actually a dandelion. Just now, the young master had been clamoring to eat vegetables, and wasn't it right in front of him?
"Dandelion is a good thing. Not only is it good for the body, but it also tastes very good. Eating dandelions was much more delicious than eating cabbage and radish, not to mention that it was better for the body. According to the people in the pharmacy, dandelions were also a kind of medicinal herb. After eating dandelions in the seedling stage, it was very beneficial to the human body. Dandelions could be eaten raw, fried, or made into soup. It was a good ingredient for both medicine and food.”
After discovering this good ingredient, Chun Niang instructed someone to go to the village to buy some radishes and cabbages. She called Gou Dan, and the two of them carried a kerosene lamp and groped in the dark to find dandelion seedlings. The two of them searched for about half an hour and pulled out a whole basket. There were all over the corner of the road. Chun Jiang felt that so many dandelions should be enough to eat, so the two of them stopped their work and began to return home.
After returning to the kitchen, he first ordered a few people to remove the roots of the dandelion seedlings. After washing them a few times, he placed them in the bamboo basket and lit them up. Drops of water seeped out of the bamboo basket and dripped onto the ground. Goudan was in charge of the fire, and Chun Niang was in charge of stir-frying. In less than ten minutes, a plate of stir-fried dandelions was completed. The fragrance assailed his nose, and the color was green. This dish was definitely a delicacy.
Just as Goudan was about to bring the dishes to Lin Yuanshan's table, the people who went to pick the Chinese totems had returned. There were six people in a row, and each of them was holding a large handful of Chinese totems. At this time, Village Yan was still very young, and the leaves had just sprouted a tender bud. After everyone's Chinese totems were added up and processed, there were only two bowls of Chinese totems left at most. From this, one could see how precious Chinese totems were.
When Chun Niang saw the good ingredients, she stopped Gou Dan and asked him to put the stir-fried dandelion on the table first. She placed a bowl on it to prevent the dish from getting cold. Chun Niang ordered someone to wash the Chinese toon and bring it over. Her hands were not idle either. She washed the wok that she had just used and let Gou Dan start cooking.
Chun Niang had just scooped a spoonful of oil in, and the solidified oil began to slowly melt. The smell of peanuts spread out. She first heated the oil to remove some of the impurities. Chun Niang had already finished processing the Chinese toon. She directly placed the Chinese toon into the beaten eggs and began to stir them with a pair of chopsticks, making a crisp sound.
The oil temperature was getting higher and higher, and a smoke started to rise. When the smoke faded, Chun Niang poured the mixture of Chinese toon and eggs into the pot. It sizzled, and a big lump appeared on the egg. Chun Niang quickly stir-fried it. A fragrance mixed with Chinese toon wafted into his face. The fragrance drifted further and further away. Even Lin Yuanshan could not help but twitch his nose, attracted by this fragrance.
The eggs and Chinese toon were easy to cook, especially since the Chinese toon could be eaten raw. Therefore, it only took less than a minute for the Chinese toon scrambled eggs to be ready. Originally, Chun Niang had planned to make a plate of fried Chinese toon, but the Chinese toon had indeed been used up. If she wanted to make it, she could only arrange for someone to pick the Chinese toon. Considering that it was already late and not very safe, there was no need to take the risk. It would not be too late to collect Chinese totems tomorrow.
Chun Niang and Goudan were carrying dishes in one hand and pancakes in the other as they walked towards Lin Yuanshan's dining table. In just a few steps, he arrived at the dining table and placed the food in his hand on the table. Lin Yuanshan did not stand on ceremony. He picked up the pancake and began to eat. He picked up his chopsticks and picked up a few vegetables to eat. His eyes lit up.
"Chun Niang, what kind of dish is this? Why is it so delicious? Why haven't I eaten it before? Didn't you say that there were no vegetables in the kitchen? Where did you learn these rare things from? To be able to eat such fresh vegetables on such a cold day is really unbelievable!”
