The control group of the ancient heroine
15. Chapter 15
After the cakes, soybean cakes and small biscuits cooled down, Yang Haiyan began to pack them in oil paper, eight small cakes, eight small biscuits and eight soybean cakes per portion, and then put the small biscuits, soybean cakes and cakes into a small red cloth bag to prevent them from being crushed. Although Qin Fang said he invited more people, she prepared two portions just in case. After packing, she asked Qin Fang to take them into the bedroom.
Then she said, "Husband, please move the things in the storage room to our bedroom. You can use the storage room to entertain guests at night, and my wife and I will eat in the study."
Qin Fang: "Hey, I'll move them right away."
After moving the things, Yang Haiyan said, "Husband, please borrow two large round tables from the mayor's house. Each table costs one penny." Yang Haiyan had asked Mrs. Lu in advance, so she knew that the mayor's house had a large round table, which was specially used for weddings and funerals. Of course, the mayor's house also charged money. Otherwise, most people usually eat at small tables. What should they do when there are weddings and funerals? A large round table costs one penny a day, and the price is cheap.
Qin Fang: "Hey."
Soon, Qin Fang borrowed the large round tables. He carried the two large round tables directly.
Qin Fang had just moved the big round table in when Sister Lu came over: "Are you going to get busy?" Qin Fang has a day off today and tomorrow, but Centurion Lu has a day off, which is not today or tomorrow. It is separate from Qin Fang.
Yang Haiyan: "Get busy first, put the cold dishes on the table first, and then the hot dishes will be served soon."
Sister Lu: "You are really thoughtful in your preparations. Only people from your wealthy families can serve cold dishes and hot dishes. Women like me are not so particular."
Yang Haiyan: "Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. What Sister Lu said is what I know, but what Sister Lu knows, maybe I don't know."
Sister Lu felt relieved after hearing this. Although she felt that what she knew were all rough things and could not be compared with what Yang Haiyan knew, what Yang Haiyan said was nice to hear.
Yang Haiyan: "Oh, sister-in-law, I have something to discuss with you."
Sister-in-law Lu: "What is it?"
Yang Haiyan: "I don't have enough plates at home, I'm afraid I have to borrow your plates."
Sister-in-law Lu: "What's this? I'll go get it."
When Sister-in-law Lu brought the plates into the kitchen, she saw that Yang Haiyan had already laid out six plates: "Sister-in-law Lu, please put these snacks on the two tables, one for each table." The six plates were filled with cakes, biscuits and soybean cakes.
Sister-in-law Lu: "Okay, okay."
Qin Fang lit the fire and cooked two iron pots. He steamed eggplants and roasted vegetables. Roasted vegetables can be served cold or hot. It is a dish from Yang Haiyan's hometown. As for the steamed eggplants, he would make hand-torn cold eggplants after the eggplants were cooked.
Sister-in-law Lu had nothing to do next to her, so she helped and watched Yang Haiyan cook. It must be said that although Yang Haiyan's cooking movements are not fast, her cooking is different from others. She puts the dishes one by one, prepares the ingredients, and then cooks without being in a hurry.
The eggplant has not been steamed yet, but the roasted dishes are ready. The southern roasted dishes are: "Sister Lu, please take these two dishes."
Sister Lu: "Okay."
Sister Lu just went out and met Yang Dahua. Yang Dahua: "Sister-in-law, Haiyan, I'm here." Yang Dahua often came here to embroider and learn needlework some time ago, and she also met Sister Lu several times. The three of them did needlework together, so the two are familiar with each other.
Yang Haiyan: "Sister Dahua, you are here."
Yang Dahua: "Hey, I brought the plates, I'm afraid your family won't have enough."
Yang Haiyan: "That's really helpful, I was planning to tell you after you came." There are indeed not enough plates at home, but it also shows Yang Dahua's attentiveness.
In fact, without Lu Saozi and Yang Dahua, Yang Haiyan could handle it. With them, she didn't have to cut vegetables, so she was faster.
After the cold eggplant and grilled vegetables, she took out pickled radish and cold lettuce, all of which were cold dishes. The last hot dishes included soybean pig's trotter soup, sweet and sour spare ribs, braised pig's large intestine, braised fish, lard residue tofu soup, leek scrambled eggs, hot and sour cabbage, garlic greens, and plum peanuts. Each dish was served in two portions, with one table for male and one table for female guests.
At the appointed time, Lu Zhide, Han Zhen and others came, but they were led by Captain Ao. Captain Ao was in his early thirties and looked very strong. Qin Fang received them outside. As soon as they arrived, he took them to the male table. Looking at the steaming and sumptuous dinner that had just been put on the table, Captain Ao and others were very surprised, because these dishes were simply delicious.
These people were in the same tent. They had known that Qin Fang's wife was a good cook, but they had only heard about it. Relatively speaking, only Han Zhen knew a little about it, so they had always thought that the soldiers were exaggerating. But today, looking at this dining table, everyone finally believed it.
While believing it, they all praised Qin Fang for his good fortune.
Qin Fang: "Master Ao, please come to the table, and everyone please sit down."
Ao Qianfu: "Everyone sit down, you're welcome."
Everyone sat down after he sat down last.
Yang Haiyan came over with a wine pot: "Hello everyone, I'm Qin Fang's wife, Qin Yang. Everyone is finally here, and the wine has been warmed up, waiting for everyone. But in order not to affect everyone's duty tomorrow, there is not much wine, so let everyone taste it and have fun."
Ao Qianfu: "Qin Fang's family, right? You are really thoughtful." It not only makes everyone sweet, but also prevents them from getting drunk. This Qin Fang's family is good.
Military officers are not as particular about formalities as civil officials, so it is not a big deal for Yang Haiyan to meet the male guests. Besides, this is the border, and the customs of the border are a little more open. Moreover, Yang Haiyan really needs to meet them, otherwise she will not know them.
Yang Haiyan: "Thank you for the compliment. Are all the sisters-in-law not here? The female guest table is ready."
In fact, no matter who invites officials to a banquet, they will not invite female relatives. Men are afraid of being controlled by women, and it is troublesome to have too many female relatives. Although Yang Haiyan knew it, she still prepared the female guest table. Even if there was no one, she, Yang Dahua, Lu's wife and her two sons, five people can eat.
Ao Qianfu: "Qin Fang's family, you don't have to be polite. They won't come to bother you."
At this time, a centurion said: "Sister-in-law, I live next door. My wife died of dystocia. My mother came from my hometown to help me take care of the children. She is taking care of three children alone. I guess the meal is not ready yet. Can I bring her over?"
When Yang Haiyan heard him say next door, she thought of the old lady who came to ask for things before, but she still smiled: "Of course, the food is hot."
"Oh, okay." Centurion Zhang hurried to the next door to meet the people.
In fact, Zhang's mother did not cook. She was going to eat here. Even if Yang Haiyan did not say there was a table for female guests, Centurion Zhang would have suggested that the children's mother come to eat with them.
Zhang's mother came with Centurion Zhang's three children. A seven-year-old girl led a four-year-old boy, and there was another one-year-old boy in Zhang's mother's arms. Among the three children, the girl's clothes were all patched, but the four-year-old boy's clothes were not patched. The other little boy was not clearly seen because Zhang's mother was holding him.
As soon as Zhang's mother arrived, she shouted, "Daughters-in-law of Qin Fang's family, we are here to congratulate you and wish you a son soon."
Yang Haiyan: "Thank you, auntie, please come in."
Zhang's mother: "Hey."
As soon as she entered the room for the ladies, she saw the delicious food on the table, and her eyes almost popped out. She sat down without saying a word, and then said to the little girl, "Da Ya, take care of your brother's meal."
Then she picked up a piece of pig's trotter and ate it. The stewed trotters were very soft and not greasy, and elderly people like Zhang's mother liked them the most.
However, Zhang's mother spit out the chewed trotters in her mouth and fed them to the little boy in her arms.
Yang Haiyan almost vomited when she saw this.
The Yang family is a big family, and they attach great importance to etiquette. Originally, she learned these from the young lady since she was a child, so she naturally had never seen such vulgar behavior. Yang Haiyan herself was born in modern times, and modern people don't feed their children like this, so she really felt disgusted when she saw it.
Not to mention her, even Yang Dahua and Lu Saozi couldn't help frowning when they saw this, but they didn't say anything.
Yang Haiyan stood up: "There are some desserts in the stove, I'll get them for you." The dessert she said was small glutinous rice balls cooked with goat's milk.
Yang Dahua: "I'll help you."
Yang Haiyan: "Hey."
As soon as she arrived in the kitchen, Yang Dahua said: "Aunt Zhang is too unrefined." Not to mention Haiyan saw Fan Ou, even if she grew up as a maid, she had never seen a maid act like this.
Yang Haiyan: "Who said it wasn't? By the way, you guys are having a drink tomorrow, do you want to see her?"
Yang Dahua paused: "Let's see tomorrow."
As the two talked, Yang Haiyan had already served two plates of small glutinous rice balls with goat's milk, and the two of them carried them into the ladies' room. Yang Haiyan: "This is goat milk dumplings, everyone, try it."
Mother Zhang heard: "Oh, there is goat milk, but goat milk tastes very muttony. Last year, after my short-lived daughter-in-law passed away, my precious grandson had no milk to drink. I also went to find goat milk, but he couldn't drink it."
Yang Haiyan: "This goat milk is minced. However, the dumplings in it can't be eaten by such a young child, so as not to choke." Although the dumplings are as big as pearls in bubble tea, the possibility of choking is very small, but Yang Haiyan still has to remind.
Mother Zhang: "No, no, I won't give this to children." She couldn't bear to choke her own grandson.
With goat milk, Mother Zhang rarely gave her grandson the vegetables that she had chewed in her mouth. Even if she occasionally fed him a piece of meat, it was better because the child was small and had a small stomach. After the little grandson had eaten, Zhang's mother said to Yang Haiyan: "Qin Fang's family, my little grandson has eaten. Can he lie down in your room for a while and let my eldest granddaughter watch him?"
