“Master, I’m here.”
Zhong Yong shouted as soon as he entered. Su Qing smiled when she saw him. She only told him to come over later. She didn’t expect Zhong Yong to rush over to go home and see his mother.
It was difficult for this disciple not to feel pain!
Su Qing arranged a job for Zhong Yong. The key was that she did not expect Zhong Yong to come over so soon. She thought he would only come after dinner, so she did not let Xiao Qi make the medicine.
“Go to the sheep pen and pick a fat sheep to kill.”
Her aunt and uncle stayed in the main room, while her parents remained in the guest room. Luan Qingshan was embarra.s.sed and wanted Su Hanxuan and Yang Ruxue to stay in the main room, but Su Hanxuan was particular about etiquette. He felt that Luan Qingshan was his sister’s brother-in-law and had an official position, so he would disagree no matter what.
The main room was her aunt’s room, so Su Qing couldn’t just casually go into other people’s rooms, so she went to her guest room.
The guest room was also huge. After entering, a large living room with bedrooms was on both sides.
Su Qing entered the room and closed the door, letting Xiao Qi make medicine for Zhong Yong.
Knowing that Zhong Yong couldn’t take bitter medicine, Su Qing asked Xiao Qi to make it into small pills. This way, he could drink it with water, and it wasn’t bitter.
Because Zhong Yong had injured his head, he had to take the Brain Clearing Pill and the Intelligence Restoring Pill.
Xiao Qi received her master’s order and immediately moved her little body. That was getting fatter by the day and ran in the system.
In half a cup of tea’s time, Xiao Qi made two pills.
“Master, it’s done.”
Su Qing nodded, took the two pills packets, and left the guest room.
Zhong Yong had already killed and skinned a fat sheep in the backyard.
Skin peeling was Zhong Yong’s forte, and his technique was agile. Jiang Yuyan was helping Zhong Yong, looking at him shyly with admiration.
Su Qing saw the way Jiang Yuyan looked at Zhong Yong. Although she knew little about relationships between men and women, she could tell that Jiang Yuyan treated Zhong Yong differently.
“Zhong Yong, take these two packets of pills. Take the red packet first. In the morning, take three pills on an empty stomach. Take the white packet after meals.”
Su Qing handed the two packets of medicine to Zhong Yong. After he finished the two packets of medication, Zhong Yong would not be as cute as he was now.
It was pretty good like this now. He was carefree and happy every day.
If he regained his clarity, he would have troubles, and if his desires were not satisfied, he would suffer.
The reason why she had delayed treating Zhong Yong until now was that she had been conflicted.
“Alright.”
Zhong Yong wiped the blood on his hands onto his clothes before talcing the medicine. Where was the medicine given by his master? He put it in his arms like a treasure and agreed in a silly voice. He did not even ask why she wanted him to take the medicine.
Su Qing saw that he had finished killing the sheep and pondered the recipe. She ate mutton every day and got tired of it.
The weather is cold; let’s make mutton hotpot!
Then, she stir-fried a lamb with scallion and a lamb brain salad. She also made some mutton dumplings to welcome the old butler.
The ribs were still the most fragrant when it came to mutton hotpot. The fat and lean meat was still tender. Su Qing cut a large rib piece and returned to the house. Fresh meat was not easy to cut, but as long as the knife was fast, it was not a problem.
Jiang Yuyan followed her into the house to help. She rolled up her sleeves and asked Su Qing for instructions.
“Sister Su Qing, what should I do?”
“You mix the noodles and chop the mutton.”
Su Qing didn’t stand on ceremony and arranged two tasks for her. Jiang Yuyan happily agreed and went to dig out noodles from her storage.
Su Qing looked at the bag of quickly loaded grain and thought about how to move the grain out of the system.
When she opened the granary last night, she didn’t distribute all the food to the disaster victims. She couldn’t keep it even if she distributed it to them. She brought more than half of the food to the system.
However, there was no white flour. It was all brown rice.
Her parents were used to eating fine grains and were not used to eating brown rice. Although mutton was good, it was easy to get tired of eating it daily.
The most important thing now was to get back the wheat and polished rice as soon as possible.
She had been too busy recently. Uncle Yang had bought all the soybeans, so she had not made tofu or bean sprouts.
She had to soak a large basin of soybeans tonight. Tomorrow morning, she would grind soy milk for her mother, make tofu pudding for her father and uncle, and make the rest into tofu to sell.
This time, Su Qing did not plan to give it away. The villagers had money now, and she could not let them develop the habit of asking for things.
Su Qing cut the meat as she wanted it. Soon, a large basin was filled with meat.
Her only vegetables were cabbage and carrots, but Su Qing had fish meat in her system. She took it out and chopped it into a fish paste to make fish b.a.l.l.s.
There was no sesame sauce, but there were sesame seeds. Su Qing used a small grinding machine to grind sesame seeds to make her sesame sauce. Seeing that her cooking skills were two squares away from reaching level 10, Su Qing was delighted.
There was no fermented bean curd, but there were chives. Su Qing fried another seasoning oil. The dipping sauce that was made this way was also very fragrant.
Thinking of the fermented bean curd, Su Qing put it on her schedule again. This thing could be used to rinse the pot and was also delicious when eaten with porridge and steamed buns.
The ingredients for the hotpot were ready. There was a bra.s.s pot in the Zhizhou Mansion. Su Qing took it out and washed it three times. She lit some charcoal and placed it at the bottom of the pot before bringing it into the house.
Su Hanxuan pulled the butler to sit on the brick bed inside the house. There was no distinction between master and servant. They were now good brothers.
Seeing his daughter enter the house with the copper pot, Su Hanxuan asked,
“Do you want to eat hotpot?”
He had eaten hotpot twice after moving to Mo City. Su Hanxuan liked it quite a bit, especially the dipping sauce his daughter made.
He realized that his daughter seemed to know everything. There was nothing that she did not know.
“Okay, I’ll go and cook two more dishes. You guys drink first.”
Su Qing nodded, and Jiang Yuyan followed behind her to bring the fish b.a.l.l.s, cabbage, and carrots into the house.
Yang Rubing looked at the fish b.a.l.l.s and asked Su Qing,
“Are there fish in Mo City? Do we have cabbage and carrots?”
” 1 brought it back from Luo City.”
Su Qing didn’t care whether her aunt believed her, so she made an excuse.
Yang Rubing believed it. Luo City had everything. Qing’er’s claim that she brought it back from there was probably true.
The butler looked at Su Qing in confusion. They had been running for their lives. Did Miss have the time to buy these things?
However, the butler was smart enough not to raise any questions. If Miss said, there was, then there was.
This was the first time the butler had eaten mutton hotpot. He imitated the old master’s example and picked up the meat to boil in the pot. Then, he dipped it in the sauce in the bowl and ate it. The butler’s eyes lit up when he ate it.
As expected of the fat sheep of Tartan, the meat was too tender.
Su Qing gave them the Jian Nanchun she brewed herself. Strong liquor was not suitable for Central Plainsmen, but Jian Nanchuan was milder, ideal for her father and the others.
Yang Ruxue and Yang Rubing did not sit at the same table as the men. They sat alone at the square table on the floor. Su Hanxuan was afraid that his wife would be unable to eat it, so he picked up a bowl of boiled meat and gave it to her. Seeing how considerate his brother-in-law was, Luan Qingshan followed suit.
Su Qing was making dumplings with Jiang Yuyan in the kitchen. It was good to be busy. They would forget about their worries when they were engaged.
“Big sister.”
Xiao Chen bounced into the house. He did not enter the house but circled her in the kitchen. When he saw Su Qing, he called her sister sweetly.
“Cousin, you’re back?”
Luan Hong was also pleased to see Su Qing. She had been in charge of the winery for the past few days and was especially serious when she mixed the wine. She was afraid that she would disappoint her cousin.
Su Qing smiled at Luan Hong,
“Yes, thank you.”
While Su Qing’s family had a hotpot, Ji Shuisheng brought his team into Luo City..
