Chapter 235 Eight-treasure Rice

When Jiang Qi led Feng Guihua upstairs, they were cooking.

Huang Fugui was making sticky rice, Old John was watching a video tutorial while staring at the chicken wings in the oven, Wang Erya was kneading the dough, and Wang Xinghua was cutting cucumbers.

It was Huang Fugui who suggested that everyone cook together. He felt that this was the first New Year for everyone to spend together, and everyone should show off their specialty dishes to add to the celebration.

Then the scene that Jiang Qi and Feng Guihua saw when they entered the door appeared.

As soon as the new colleagues arrived, everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and stepped forward to welcome them.

Huang Fugui pulled Feng Guihua into the room to see the floor they had just laid.

It's said to be a floor mat, but it's actually quite thick. There is a mat at the bottom, and on top of the mat are two layers of mats. On top of the mats are two large thick quilts, and then there are sheets, quilts and pillows.

Of course, it goes without saying about the room itself. With Wang Erya, a cleaning expert, there is no chance of any dust in the house.

Bunny was lying on the pillow, silently emitting the scent of lavender to freshen the air.

Feng Guihua expressed satisfaction with her living environment in the next few days. In fact, she didn't need to sleep. It didn't matter whether she had a bed or not. Having a bunk on the floor would make her feel more at ease.

On the way here, Jiang Qi also asked Feng Guihua for her opinion, asking her whether she wanted to live with her former colleagues or rent an extra single room for her.

Feng Guihua is the fourth character card drawn by Jiang Qi. Old John will definitely rise to one star this year. The Huang Fugui card will occupy one card slot if its two stars fail to rise to three. After Old John is promoted to star, Jiang Qi will most likely draw another character card. By then, there will definitely not be enough room upstairs, and he will have to rent other houses for the card characters.

Jiang Qi could have rented a new house to Feng Guihua from the beginning. After all, the identity he assigned to Feng Guihua was that of a cleaning lady who lived nearby. It would be inappropriate for Feng Guihua to live with Huang Fugui and the others.

Feng Guihua has no objection to living in a single room instead of living with her colleagues. She is a modern person herself and can seamlessly integrate into modern life without needing to adapt.

Jiang Qi plans to find time tomorrow to go to an agency near the community and ask if there are any one-bedroom apartments for rent in the community. If you rent a house normally, you will definitely not be able to rent a well-decorated and cheap house with four bedrooms and two living rooms like Cao Yongjun's house. Fortunately, Feng Guihua's requirements for housing are not high, and a normal house will be fine.

If there is one in the community, rent one in the community. If there is no store in the community, rent one nearby.

In the room, Huang Fugui conducted induction training for new colleagues who were about to join the company.

Outside the room, Lili and the Toy Spirits, who had occupied the sofa and coffee table, warmly invited Jiang Qi to watch TV with them.

"Mr. Boss, do you want to watch TV with us? This TV series is really good!" Ji Qi sent an invitation to Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi took a look and saw Garden Baby being played on TV.

Lili was still cheering and shouting: "Makabaka!"

Jiang Qi:......

Okay, this can barely be considered a TV series. After all, these garden babies are played by real people wearing leather suits.

This kind of TV series may be a bit naive for people of Jiang Qi's age, but it is just right for Lili and the Toy Spirits.

"After watching Garden Babies, you can watch Teletubbies again." Jiang Qi recommended his childhood favorites to the Toy Spirits, "Then there are also cartoons like Peppa Pig and Spongebob Squarepants. During the New Year, Unless something unexpected happens during the day, you all have to stay upstairs and watch whatever you want."

"Okay, Mr. Boss!" Elk stood up and nodded to Jiang Qi, then lay down again and continued watching TV.

"Banban, Happy New Year!" Lili didn't forget to wish Jiang Qi a happy New Year while watching TV. After wishing her, she continued watching TV.

"Happy New Year, Banban will send you a red envelope tomorrow." Jiang Qi said with a smile.

"Thank you Banban!"

Jiang Qi looked at the time, half past four. He just took Feng Guihua to the supermarket to buy things. It didn't take long. It took almost 20 minutes to walk back from here. He would go back before five o'clock, so he wouldn't delay things.

Just when Jiang Qi was about to say that he would go back first, Wang Xinghua, who was cutting tomatoes in the kitchen, floated out with a knife, floated to the door of Feng Guihua's room and asked: "Uncle Huang, are you still cooking your eight-treasure rice? If not, I will help." You put the ingredients aside first, I'm going to start cooking my dishes."

"It's done." Huang Fugui hurriedly ran out, "I would have forgotten it if you didn't remind me. This glutinous rice has just been steamed and I haven't mixed it with lard yet."

Feng Guihua heard that Huang Fugui was going to make eight-treasure rice and followed her out. When she saw the ingredients prepared by Huang Fugui, her eyes lit up and she looked eager to try it.

"Can I make this rice pudding? My family loves the rice pudding I make the most. Every New Year's Eve dinner is indispensable without my rice pudding. I not only cooked it for my family when I was alive, but also during the New Year's Eve the year I just died. I also cooked eight-treasure rice for my family."

Everyone except Jiang Qi:?

Wang Erya asked blankly: "Grandma Guihua, are you a half-ghost king like Sister Xinghua?"

"What is a half-ghost king?" Feng Guihua was confused.

"It's not important." Jiang Qi quickly came out to smooth things over, "You each belong to different worlds, and your cultivation systems and methods of becoming ghosts may also be different. Don't worry about these small details."

"Grandma Feng, will it take you long to make the eight-treasure rice now?"

There is a saying that Jiang Qi wants to eat the eight-treasure rice made by Feng Guihua.

Everyone can see how useful the skills of these card characters are.

Huang Fugui's skill is green vegetable noodles. With the blessing of skills and the aura of the God of Cooking, his green vegetable noodles are the same as luminous cuisine, basically on the same level as the golden, god-level egg fried rice.

Although Feng Guihua's rice-treasure rice skill description says that her rice-treasure rice may not be the most delicious, it also says that it is the most homely and New Year-style.

What day is today?

New Year's Eve!

What are you going to have for dinner tonight?

New Year's Eve dinner?

Among the 365 days in a year, is there any more suitable day than today to eat the eight-treasure rice made by Feng Guihua?

If you don’t eat it today, you’ll have to wait another year!

Feng Guihua looked at the ingredients prepared by Huang Fugui and said, "Twenty minutes plus steaming time."

"If I don't eat it after steaming it, but take it to my uncle's house to eat, will it affect the taste?"

"It doesn't affect it, it doesn't affect it." Feng Guihua said with a smile, "If it gets cold on the road, just put it on the pot and steam it for two minutes. As long as it doesn't stay overnight, it won't affect the taste."

"Xiao Huang, do you mind if I just use the materials you prepared?" The previous inquiry was taken astray, so Feng Guihua asked again.

"You don't mind, you don't mind, Aunt Feng, you can use it as you like." Huang Fugui said cheerfully, "Actually, I also learned how to do it by following the online teaching videos. I have never done it before and this is my first time doing it today. Since you have experience and are good at it, I was watching from the side and just learned from it.”

"Okay." Feng Guihua washed her hands and started making rice.

The ingredients Huang Fugui prepared were mainly preserved fruits. There were not many dried fruits, and only some red dates were soaked. Feng Guihua considered that Jiang Qi was going to take it away for the whole family to eat, so she simply used a large noodle bowl to make a big version of a bowl of eight-treasure rice.

While doing it, Feng Guihua was still talking.

"Although there are no specific rules on what should be put on top of this rice-treasure rice, just put whatever is available. It is mainly for auspiciousness and good omen. But if you put too much of this kind of candied fruit, it will still be greasy. Adding some dried fruits will not only look good but also increase the color. It also adds flavor.”

"You can prepare more red dates, keep a few whole ones and cut them in half for garnishing, and grind the rest into puree and spread them for seasoning."

"Then you can't put too much sugar in this filling. You can mix some honey. I heard others say you can put maple sugar in it before, but I always thought the taste was a bit weird. I like to put dried osmanthus in it, so that the bean paste filling tastes like osmanthus. Everyone loves to eat it too.”

Feng Guihua obviously has a lot of experience in making eight-treasure rice, and she talks clearly and logically.

Wang Xinghua was chopping vegetables at the side, but when she heard this, she stopped chopping vegetables and asked with a longing look on her face: "Grandma Feng, what did the eight-treasure rice taste like when it was steamed back then?"

"What does it taste like?" This question really stumped Feng Guihua. She has been making rice pudding for so many years, and this is the first time someone asked her what rice pudding tastes like.

In her opinion, rice pudding is the taste of rice pudding.

"Sweet it," Feng Guihua said, "I'll make you a bowl and you'll know after you eat it."

"Okay, okay!"

20 minutes later, Jiang Qi left with a bowl full of fragrant eight-treasure rice, covered with a rag.

At 5:27, Jiang Qi knocked on Jiang Xiaokang's door.

"Come, come, is it Brother Jiang Qi?" Jiang Wanwan quickly ran to open the door for Jiang Qi, "Brother Jiang Qi, why have you been out for so long? Just now, my mother asked me to call you to ask when you will be back, Guazi. Did you buy it? Did you buy the drink?"

"I bought it, I bought it all." Jiang Qi pointed to his feet. He had something in both hands and couldn't knock on the door. He just put down the bag and knocked on the door.

"Get it for me." Jiang Qi handed the eight-treasure rice to Jiang Wanwan and went in with the bag to change shoes.

"What is this?" Jiang Wanwan stared at the eight-treasure rice in the noodle bowl. This bowl of eight-treasure rice had to be put upside down on the plate to tell that it was eight-treasure rice. Now when you look at it backwards, it looks like a bowl of white rice. "Brother Jiang Qi, you Why are you bringing a bowl of rice back? Will the supermarket deliver food today?"

"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Qi was also convinced by Jiang Wanwan's thinking, "This is eight-treasure rice, just steamed. It's just that it's cold outside, and the rice was cold when I walked back. Don't mention it when it was freshly steamed. It’s so fragrant, I almost couldn’t help but take a bite.”

Hearing that Jiang Qi had brought back the freshly steamed eight-treasure rice, Jiang Bing and Wen Luo quickly poked their heads out.

Jiang Pei stood up and came over to take a look. Before he saw the rice, he was shocked when he saw the bowl: "Huh, it's such a big bowl. This bowl can be as big as the average 4 or 5 bowls of eight-treasure rice."

"Grandma Feng is enthusiastic. She heard that there are many people in my family having New Year's dinner in the evening, so she insisted on making such a big bowl for me. If I hadn't been able to hold it, she could have made several bowls for me."

"Who is Grandma Feng?" Jiang Bing quickly searched for the grandmothers they knew in his mind, but could not find any grandmother named Feng who could cook rice pudding.

"He's a new cleaner in the store. He lives nearby. I met him in the supermarket." Jiang Qi said, "Sister, you don't know me. Grandma Feng will have to wait until the new year to come back to work."

"Wow, brother Jiang Qi, you are rich enough to hire a full-time cleaner!" Wen Luo looked at Jiang Qi with admiration. Obviously, in his heart, being able to hire a full-time cleaner meant that he was rich.

Jiang Qi:......

You may not believe it, but I have always had a full-time cleaning staff in my store.

It started when Liu Lan was the only one getting paid, but Old John's cleaning attributes were hidden deeper. From the time the store opened to now, Liu Lan might be the only one who knew that Old John was originally the cleaner in the store.

Most likely I have forgotten it now.

Jiang Qi took the eight-treasure rice into the kitchen and briefly told his aunt about the origin of the eight-treasure rice. The eldest aunt was amazed that people still make their own rice pudding these days, while looking for a plate that could hold the large bowl of rice pudding, preparing to steam it in a pot and heat it up before inverting it on the plate.

Jiang Qi returned to the living room and joined the army of melon seeds.

At six o'clock in the evening, after the chess game was over, Jiang Xiaokang and his uncle put away the chessboard, went to the sofa with Jiang Xiaoliang and Jiang Xiaoguang, and joined the army of melon seeds.

Elders and juniors always have something to talk about when they are together. They usually talk about things related to the juniors and show concern for them.

There really isn't much news to talk about in the Jiang family this year.

Jiang Bing opened a script-killing shop this year, and it hasn't closed down yet. After Jiang Qi took over the business, it was so prosperous that he opened new stores and found cleaning staff. Bingbing prepared by Jiang Xiaokang and others, don't be discouraged, don't be discouraged, learn a lesson, there is nothing you can say if you won't lose money next time you open a store.

Jiang Qi opened the store well and became the most successful person in the Jiang family in one fell swoop. Jiang Xiaokang and others had never done business and couldn't find a starting point to talk about. Jiang Xiaoliang had done business, and even done big business. Even though he went bankrupt and almost jumped off the building, he didn't dare to give advice on his son's business experience, so Jiang Qi didn't have anything to talk about.

Jiang Wanwan went to college as an ordinary, transparent college student.

Jiang Pei had some twists and turns this year and lost her job, but her unemployment was not her problem but her boss's problem. The elders comforted her with some words of comfort and encouraged her to take the exam well so that she would have nothing to say after landing ashore.

So everyone's attention was focused on Wen Luo, who was about to take the college entrance examination this year.

For college entrance examination candidates, even an elder can find a hundred sentences to say.

Then Winlow became the focus of the conversation.

Wen Luo said: (;Д`)

What saved Wen Luo was the eldest aunt's words of greeting.

"It's time to eat, don't sit on the sofa! Come and sit at the dining table, Jiang Xiaokang, put the dishes and chopsticks in place. You little ones can help themselves to whatever drinks you want. Be careful to scald the rice wine in the pot."

"You can start eating after the eight-treasure rice is steamed."

"Auntie, let me help you get the bowls and chopsticks." When he heard the word "dinner," Wen Luo rushed into the kitchen and started to grab the bowls and chopsticks.

"Luoluo must be hungry, you are so active in eating."

"I'm hungry. I'm hungry."

"I remember that you like to eat sweet things the most. Eat it while it's hot when the eight-treasure rice is hot. It won't taste good when it's cold."

While talking, everyone had already sat down.

The New Year's Eve dinner is the most sumptuous meal of the year, and the dishes are naturally not inferior to the previous family dinners. The eldest aunt and Jiang Xiaohong worked hard today. They were busy from noon to evening. The dishes on the dinner table were basically big dishes.

Abalone roasted chicken, green onion roasted sea cucumber, braised pig's trotters, braised lamb, lamb soup, braised prawns in oil, braised pork with pickled vegetables, steamed sea bass, sweet and sour pork ribs, stir-fried flower wine duck, slide chicken with mushrooms, oil Top with cabbage, carrot stewed beef, fish head stewed tofu, golden cake, sauce duck and the eight-treasure rice that has not yet been served.

There are a total of eighteen dishes. People with a slightly smaller appetite will be full after just a few bites of each dish.

"Wow, my mother's New Year's Eve dinner is really based on the concept of chicken, duck, fish, and delicacies from the mountains and seas. There are too many dishes this year!" Jiang Wanwan's eyes were filled with tears as she slowly looked at the dishes on the table. Thanks to her The dining table at home is big enough, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to fit it in.

"Where are the delicacies?" Wen Luo looked at the dishes on the table several times but didn't see the delicacies.

Jiang Xiaohong shook her head helplessly, her face filled with thoughts about what my stupid son would do to take the college entrance examination this year: "Aren't mushrooms just delicacies from the mountains?"

"Here comes the eight-treasure rice." The eldest aunt held the last dish of eight-treasure rice and asked everyone to move their positions on the table to squeeze in the eight-treasure rice.

"This rice pudding is really good. The one made at home is different from the one bought in the supermarket. It tastes better." As she said that, the eldest aunt took off her apron and sat down.

When the last person sat down, Jiang Xiaokang raised his glass with a smile: "Come on, New Year's Eve friends, let's pay tribute to the little girl who worked the hardest today and my dearest wife."

Everyone raised their glasses.

"Happy New Year!"

"Everyone, try this eight-treasure rice first. I remember Xiao Qi said it was made by the people in your store, right? I haven't had freshly made eight-treasure rice in many years. I'm hungry too, so I won't be polite. "The eldest aunt was the first to hold out her chopsticks to the eight-treasure rice.

Instead of choosing the top layer covered with various preserved fruits, she put a large piece of glutinous rice on the edge and dipped it in some bean paste.

Wrap it up in one bite.

The eldest aunt chewed carefully and said nothing.

"Mom, how does it taste? Is it delicious?" Jiang Wanwan was waiting for comments.

"Don't tell me, it's really delicious. It tastes like home-made food." The eldest aunt praised it and took another chopstick.

Jiang Qi also picked up a chopstick.

One mouthful.

Sweet.

The bean paste is very sweet, but not greasy, and has a very delicate texture. It reminds Jiang Qi of the bean paste buns from a bun shop that has long since closed in front of the elementary school.

Very homely, very simple, very sweet, very delicious and very affordable.

The glutinous rice also has a slight sweetness, probably because it has been mixed with lard. It is very fragrant and chewy. To say that it is very delicious and can be called a delicacy, it is definitely not considered a delicacy, but it is delicious.

Eight-treasure rice and vegetable noodles are two delicious styles.

The green vegetable noodles are worthy of the God of Cooking. They are amazing in one bite. People can’t help but sigh that there are such extraordinary green vegetable noodles in the world and that the green vegetable noodles can be made so delicious. Even if the noodles themselves don’t glow, the noodles will glow when you eat them.

The eight-treasure rice is different. Not only is it not amazing, but it is a bit ordinary.

It is like a dish that everyone can make at home. As long as the elders are attentive, willing, serious and careful, they can make delicious dishes.

Babao rice is a home-cooked dish, a real home-cooked dish, not the kind that is labeled as home-cooked food in restaurants, it tastes like delicious food sold outside.

In Jiang Qi's opinion, there is a big difference between the taste of food at home and the taste of food outside.

No matter whether the food outside tastes good or bad, it tastes like the food outside.

No matter whether the food at home tastes good or bad, it tastes like it has an inexplicable buff that comes from home-cooked food.

The current eight-treasure rice has this magical buff.

It may not be the most delicious, but it must taste like home.

"Wow, this eight-treasure rice... is so homely!" Jiang Bing couldn't help but uttered an awkward compliment. She turned her head to Jiang Qi and whispered, "Brother, do you think there is something inexplicable about this eight-treasure rice?" It feels like it was done by my aunt or my mother."

"Obviously my mother's cooking skills cannot make rice pudding of this level, but I just feel that this rice pudding is very similar to what my mother can make."

When speaking ill of his own mother, Jiang Bing's voice was extremely low.

"It's originally a home-cooked dish made by Grandma Feng. It's normal for you to think it tastes like home-cooked food. It's not like home-cooked food. How can it be called home-cooked food?" Jiang Qi said.

"Is that so?" Jiang Bing licked his lips, feeling that this eight-treasure rice was different.

Regardless of its.

Jiang Bing stretched out his chopsticks again and picked up a large piece with quick eyes and hands.

As long as it tastes good, why do you think so much? If you don’t grab it, it will be gone.

Anyway, this rice pudding was made by the new cleaning aunt in Jiang Qi's store. Jiang Bing has already thought about it. When it opens in the next year, she will go to the store every day to build a good relationship with the new cleaning aunt.

Then I asked Grandma Feng to cook eight-treasure rice for me.

She wants to eat ten bowls!
