Chapter 4 God of Cooking System
Jiang Ning’s smile froze. She couldn’t stop laughing anymore when she arrived at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain. Not many people entered the mountain early in the morning. She was in a good mood and everything she saw was like a treasure.
What shocked her the most was that there were melons all over the mountains and plains, some were still green, and some were already overripe, and the smell was faintly revealed when a gust of wind blew through them.
Jiang Ning ran over excitedly and gave her a big hug.
A mechanical voice sounded in my mind, "Gualou, it can be used medicinally and edible, and its seeds can be fried to make melon seeds."
Jiang Ning was overjoyed. She didn't expect that her God of Cooking system would also come with her. Her consciousness immediately entered the system and found that all the ingredients stored in it before she traveled were there.
Spices such as: different varieties of chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, pepper, cumin, cloves, star anise, bay leaves, tangerine peel, cinnamon, etc., each weighing about twenty to thirty pounds, and some are from different origins, because different dishes have different tastes. She prepared everything; the necessary ingredients for cooking: lard, soybean oil, sesame oil, salt, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, umami soy sauce, rice vinegar, mature vinegar, rice wine, white wine, beer, monosodium glutamate, chicken essence, brown sugar, white sugar, rock sugar, Honey, a lot of it.
In addition to these, there are also some dry goods, such as longan, red dates, dried figs, dried cordyceps, white fungus, fungus, shiitake mushroom, red mushroom, bamboo fungus, abalone, squid, scallop, shrimp, sea cucumber, bird's nest, deer antlers, etc. Essential ingredients for making soup.
In addition, there are two large bags of all-purpose flour for making pasta, a small amount of cornmeal, and a small amount of whole grains.
After reading those things, Jiang Ning cried with joy. Although there was not much food, it was at least enough for emergencies, but she couldn't explain the origin of these things yet, and she couldn't take them out at all.
Yang Santie saw his mother-in-law holding a handful of melon seeds crying and laughing, and frowned tightly, "Mom, those things stink so bad, no one picks them at all, they are not a treasure."
Jiang Ning came to his senses and hurriedly explained: "This is a good thing that can be sold for money. Come over and help."
Yang Santie curled his lips and didn't take Jiang Ning's words seriously at all. He turned around and squatted on the ground to pick wild vegetables, "I still have to find something to eat. Mom, let me play by myself!"
Jiang Ning took a look and saw that Yang Santie was squatting on the ground and pulling at wild vegetables she didn't recognize, leaving a large patch of plantains and dandelions next to them unpicked. She twitched the corner of her mouth and told Yang Sizhuang to pick them.
Yang Sizhuang was not as rebellious as Yang Santie and was afraid of his original owner. When Jiang Ning shouted, he immediately squatted down to work. It was just picking wild vegetables. It was not a big deal. As long as the mother-in-law didn't curse others and chased him away like a rabbit.
Jiang Ning took a look and saw that the two children were working hard, and he also concentrated on picking the melons.
They were all over the mountains and plains, and she couldn't pick them all by herself. The basket on her back was soon full, and she hurriedly said: "I'll take these back first and then come back to you. Remember not to go too far!"
Yang Santie looked like he had seen a ghost. He stood up and watched Jiang Ning leave. He kicked Yang Sizhuang and said, "Do you think my mother's brain has been damaged? She even reminded us?"
This is really the sun rising from the west. It's the first time in his life that he has seen it!
Yang Sizhuang wiped his bubbling nose and said, "Isn't that great? As long as my mother-in-law doesn't beat me, that's fine!"
Yang Santie nodded in agreement and continued to squat down to work. Although he wanted to play, he had to suppress those thoughts due to the current situation at home.
On the way back, Jiang Ning passed by the field and saw more people working, but everyone's reaction was surprisingly consistent. Not to mention saying hello to her, they didn't even bother to look at her.
This time she learned the lesson and quickly crossed the field and carried her things home.
Yang Dazhuang saw Jiang Ning leaving and chatted with Yang Zhuzi beside him: "That must be the stubborn woman from Yang Hu's family just now! What do you think she did when she went into the mountains so early in the morning? There were baskets of them!"
Yang Tuozi didn't even raise his head, and his tone of voice was full of disgust, "What does it matter what she does? Just don't blackmail us!"
Jiang even robbed his son of candy, how could he do anything serious! Yang Dazhuang was right to think about it and continued to work with his head down.
Jiang Ning was so exhausted that he was sweating profusely when he carried Gualou back, and his shoulders were in severe pain. The original owner said that this was not an ordinary lazy thing. I think she had suffered a lot before time travel. In that era of material abundance, she could still carry it. Forty or fifty kilograms of things were carried all the way, and these melons and trichosanthes weighed less than forty kilograms. The original owner's body was unable to bear the burden.
She shook her head and put the melon in the corner of the kitchen house, then continued to the foot of Qingfeng Mountain.
She went back and forth about six or seven times before stopping. It was already dusk. When Yang Datou and Liu Ye came back from the fields, they saw that Gualou in Yizaowu was not feeling well.
"Auntie, you picked these all?" Yang Datou blurted out subconsciously.
Yang Santie immediately distanced himself from the relationship, "Brother, I asked my mother not to pick the vegetables. She refused to listen and insisted on playing. It's none of my business. I picked wild vegetables properly."
Yang Datou lowered his head and glanced at Yang Santie's harvest. His face was finally a little relieved. His eyes fell on Yang Sizhuang's backpack, and his expression cracked instantly, "Fourth, what did you pick?"
Yang Sizhuang pointed at Jiang Ning with an innocent face, "My mother asked me to pick it."
Yang Datou took a deep breath and put on a smile that was uglier than crying, "Since it was my mother who asked you to pick it, forget it."
Jiang Ning said: "Those are plantains and dandelions, they are edible."
Yang Datou helplessly held his forehead, "Auntie, I know those are plantains and dandelions. The village doctor said that if you have a headache or brain fever, you can use them to boil water. I generally don't eat these things."
Although Rongshu Village is poor, it is backed by mountains, has streams and lakes, and has many gifts from nature. Some people have tried to eat fresh food before, but the results were either unpalatable or poisoned, and in serious cases they even lost their lives.
Since then, everyone has tacitly agreed to pick common wild vegetables and fruits. No one dares to try anything they have never seen or eaten before. Even if one or two people try it and they are fine, no one will follow suit on a large scale.
Jiang Ning also knew that it would be difficult to persuade them to accept, so he had no choice but to say to Liuye: "You can make me some plantains and dandelions, and I will eat this."
"Auntie." Liu Ye frowned and wanted to persuade. Seeing Jiang Ning's determined look, she had no choice but to agree.
Watching Liuye going to cook, Jiang Ning asked, "Where are Erdan and Xiaoya? Why haven't they come back so late?"
"I'll go and have a look." Yang Datou walked out without saying a word, and Yang Santie immediately caught up with him.
Jiang Ning didn’t think much and went to the kitchen house to clean up the melons.
Those rotten melons exude an unpleasant stench, and there is no way to dispose of them and sell them, but the seeds can be cleaned and fried. It just so happens that this house has just been burned, and the ground is full of plant ash, which can be used to rub the rotten melon seeds. Trichosanthes is just right.
She was busy inside. Liuye glanced curiously at the door for a few times. She was persuaded by the smell and quickly turned around to continue her work.
Jiang Ning was busy until Yang Datou's voice was heard outside, and then he left the stove house. When he saw them dragging a pile of bamboo back, he hurried over to help.
Just as she approached, several children frowned in unison.
Jiang Ning didn’t say anything. Let’s wait and see if these people will dislike it after she gets rid of Gualou!
There are only so many ingredients that the system can think of at one time, and they may be updated in the future O(∩_∩)O haha~
