The flowering period works

Chapter 417: Stay Out of It, Keep to Yourself!

    

nside, they would run back.It's called helping, but it's actually just an excuse to cheat.Jia Yin was sandwiched between her brothers, sitting on the soft sweet potato seedlings, staring at the fire,...Jia Yin hugged the duck leg, her two rows of small white teeth, pulling off a big chunk of meat.

The duck skin is crispy, the duck meat is tender, and the slight saltiness suppresses the inherent gamey flavor of the duck meat. It's really delicious.

The only downside was that the ducks were farm-raised, not the kind raised in a commercial setting. They weren't as plump and flavorful, and the duck skin was very thin.

Otherwise, the duck skin is cut into pieces, coated with sugar frosting, and eaten crispy, oily, and sweet...

Oh, don't be greedy, this is already pretty good.

Jia Yin confidently held up her thumb and, towards her mother whose expression was three parts nervous and seven parts expectant, blurted out, "Mother, it's delicious!"

Tao Hongying's face immediately blossomed like a flower, radiant and bright. "As long as it tastes good, as long as it tastes good!"

The old woman also said, "Duck is something that has a fishy smell. When it's stewed, there's always a taste I don't like. But to eat it roasted like this is really different. It's delicious, so delicious."

Tao Hongying laughed even more happily, and quickly picked a few pieces of duck meat for He Mamá and Shuǐyún Shuǐlíng.

The three of them also nodded in agreement, all praising, "It's really delicious!"

Grandma He had come from the palace and considered herself to have seen a lot of the world, but she had never seen a duck behave like this before.

She hesitated and asked, "Fourth Madam, is there any dipping sauce for this duck Like in the south, they have white-cut chicken that needs to be served with dipping water, making it taste even better."

Tao Hongying waved her hand and smiled mysteriously, "There are other arrangements, but I'm still missing a little bit of material. It will be on the table tonight, and you'll know everything then."

At that very moment, the Dongmei and Yeshan couple arrived in a carriage and stopped outside the door.

Tao Hongying then said, "Oh my, what a coincidence! I was just talking about it, Dongmei and they have just come back with some good things."

Then, she took Jiayin and walked out.

As expected, Dongmei and Yeshan opened the carriage doors and started unloading things.

A basket of fresh scallions, a basket of prickly cucumbers, a basket of emerald green bok choy, a basket of long purple eggplants, two jade gourds, and even a dozen half-opened chrysanthemums.

Tao Hongying grabbed a cucumber, but was overjoyed. “This cucumber is so fresh! It’s still got the flower buds!”

Jia Yin continued to gnaw on the duck leg, her small hands greasy and smiling happily.

In her past life, she always found it strange that cucumbers, which were obviously green, were called cucumbers.

Fortunately, there are still such vegetables in this world's Tianwu, and they are truly called cucumbers.

She couldn't help but wave the duck leg and shout several times, "Cucumber! Cucumber!"

The old lady still heard strangely, “I remember this girl didn't like cucumbers. How come she’s so happy”

A crowd of people, pushing and shoving, carried the basket into the courtyard. A villager passing by chuckled and asked, "Has something else been sent from Fortune's family farm"

"That's right," Tao Hongying quickly replied, "There are greenhouses over there, and the second crop of vegetables is already harvested."

The villagers didn't harbor any doubts and marveled in envy, "It's a truly wonderful place, not inferior to our own feng shui treasure land at all."

"That's right!" The old woman sighed along with him, "But she's so clever, for all these years, she hasn't let anyone know, avoiding a lot of trouble. Look at us, we're known far and wide, and have become a big fat piece of meat, everyone wants to come and take a bite."

The villagers nodded vigorously, “That’s right, it's best to make a fortune quietly like Mr. Zhuang's."

The old woman added, "So, you all should help keep things quiet about this plot of land belonging to Funiu. At the very beginning, the jade cucumber seedlings were given to us by someone else. If everyone knew, then maybe in the future these good things wouldn't come our way anymore."

"Yes, yes!" Hearing this, the villagers almost nodded their heads like chicks pecking at rice.

Only when things have nothing to do with oneself will one remain aloof and detached.

Now, the secret to Zhengjiazhuang's prosperity is a hidden path to wealth that only the village knows about.

This is not just Li's family affair, it's a village-wide matter.

The villagers simply greeted each other and hurried away, afraid that if they knew more, it would pop out of their minds.

His lips were tightly shut. He wouldn't say a word, not even the north wind could sneak in through a crack...

Li's daughter-in-law and mother-in-law exchanged glances, both smiling. They closed the courtyard door and turned back to the house.

When it was pitch black, Li Zhensheng and Jiahuan, who had received the news, along with the village head, Zhao Shu and several others, Liu Biaotou and Zhang Shini, as well as Li Yong's family of four, were all called to Li's house to try the new dish.

As a result, before the new dish could even be served, Li Lao Si actually returned.

He had been in the army for so long that he had grown thin and wiry, his beard almost two inches long.

As soon as he walked in, he scooped up his daughter and spun her around. Then, with his scraggly beard, he tickled her until she giggled uncontrollably.

"My little treasure, daddy's home! Did you miss daddy"

Before Little Fortune could even respond, Old Madam Li had already slapped her son on the back and scolded him angrily.

"What a brute! A child's skin is so tender, how could they possibly withstand your rough beard!"

As she spoke, she snatched the granddaughter away. Sure enough, the little girl's face was already flushed red.

Now even Tao Hongying is the one who feels sorry for you and urges you to leave, "Go wash up quickly, change your clothes, I'll be waiting for you with roast duck!"

"Roast duck You're concocting a new dish again" Li Lao Si chuckled and got to tidying up.

Soon, he came back after washing himself clean, and the table was set with plenty of dishes.

Yēshān wore white cotton gloves and held a dagger. After consulting with Táo Hóngyīng for a few moments, he began to carve up the two roast ducks in front of him.

Between the rise and fall of the knife, slices of duck meat, both thin and thick, with skin and flesh, were placed on a white porcelain dish.

When the plate was almost full, Tao Hongying took out a stack of thin pancakes from the lunchbox.

Shui Ling brought a dish of scallion and cucumber絲, and a dish of dark sauce, hurrying forward.

Tao Hongying spread out a sheet of dough, placed a slice of duck meat, several strands of cucumber and scallion that had been coated with sauce, and then rolled it up.

The first spring roll was given to the old woman, the second to the village head, and the third to Zhang Shiniang...

In the blink of an eye, everyone had a burrito in hand, not knowing what to do next.

Tao Hongying laughed and said, "Everyone eat! This is a new dish that I'm going to sell to the rich people in town. Please try it and tell me if it tastes good"

Then everyone carefully brought the burrito to their mouths, chewed it slowly, and their eyes lit up!

"Oh my, this is delicious! It's so much better than just eating roast duck on its own. It doesn't seem as greasy either!" The old woman was the first to voice her opinion.

Everyone also nodded in agreement. Jia Huan, who rarely got a chance to speak, jumped in and exclaimed, "Fourth Aunt, it's the cucumber and onion that bring out the flavor of the duck meat and also balance out some of the greasiness. It's truly delicious!"

The village head and others couldn't find anything to criticize, so they said, "With such a delicate way of eating, we all feel like honored guests."

And the foodie Zhang Shenyi, has already teamed up with Jia Yin, reaching out their hands towards Tao Hongying...

Two roast ducks were quickly devoured by the crowd.

Tao Hongying glanced at her daughter Gugugu's small belly and stuffed the last spring roll into Shui Ling's mouth, who stood aside.

The little girl beamed with delight, her mouth puckered like a squirrel in autumn.

Although she didn't know when the warm shed for vegetables had appeared in Zhengjiazhuang, where she had grown up.

But she hoped that the warm shed would always remain.

Thus, everyone in the household was happy, and she was happy too!

Tao Hongying wiped her hands and smiled at Li Zhensheng, “Big brother, with this roasted duck as the finale for our private kitchen on the day after tomorrow, it should bring good luck, right”

I'm sorry, my darlings, the child has grown multiple teeth and the hospital queue wasted time. I will update two chapters first, and there will be one more chapter around 8 p.m.ror rubbed his temples and asked, "Is this profit after deducting the wages of brokers and others, and all other expenses"The Third Princess, where did she know She took the ledger from Bao Lei's hand...
