Chapter 115 Food
Oh my god! Did the second sister go out and their family become the landlords of two hills? All the people the second sister brought back were servants she bought for the family? Was she also going to change from a maid who worked part-time for the landlord to a real lady?
Is all this real? Is she dreaming? Lin Jinxiu felt a little dizzy, and Aunt Huang's voice brought her back to consciousness.
"Miss Jinxiu, please go and rest aside. I will do the rough work for you."
Lin Jinxiu had not yet adapted to the change of her status and shook her head to refuse. "It's just kneading dough, it's not a rough job, I can do it myself."
Aunt Huang was rejected again and again, and she was a little at a loss. It was also her first time to be a servant for her master. She had no experience in facing such a situation and didn't know what to do.
When Lin Jinxiu saw how uneasy Aunt Huang was, she thought of her past self and felt a little sorry for her.
So she said, "How about this, old man... Aunt Huang, you help me wash the vegetables first, and this lady will help light the fire, and I will knead the dough. If we work together, it will be faster, and you can have dinner earlier."
When Aunt Huang got the OK, she immediately smiled. She pushed Shen Yunniang, who had been standing silently beside her, and motioned her to go to the stove to light the fire. She rolled up her sleeves, picked some vegetables from the basket and started to wash them.
In order to ease the awkwardness, Lin Jinxiu kept looking for topics to chat with Aunt Huang and the others. Shen Yunniang was not a talkative person, but she answered every question, but her words were relatively brief.
Fortunately, there was the chatty Aunt Huang. Seeing that Lin Jinxiu was easy to get along with, she gradually relaxed and was no longer as reserved as before when chatting with Lin Jinxiu.
As the topic went on, they gradually became familiar with each other, and occasionally laughter could be heard from the kitchen. In the harmonious atmosphere, a pot of white noodle dumpling soup was ready.
Lin Jinxiu was afraid that they wouldn’t have enough to eat, so she fried an extra plate of eggs and a plate of sausages.
The dishes were ready in the kitchen, and Lin Chuyi and Grandpa Huang had almost finished cleaning up. The ox was tied alone to a pillar in the yard, with thick straw spread all around it, and the unloaded car body was pushed to another corner.
We will clean up a cowshed and a garage tomorrow and use them as a special place to stay.
Lin Chuyi prepared two basins for the cattle, one filled with grass that the cattle usually eat, and the other filled with clean water.
She also fed the yellow cow a Lingxin Pill when no one else was paying attention. It must have worked hard for it to pull them such a long way today.
The yellow cow was panting with excitement, and even used its head to nudge Lin Chuyi to show its affection. However, Lin Chuyi did not appreciate it and jumped three feet high, moving away from where the yellow cow was.
The ox was so angry that it kicked its hooves in place. Seeing that Lin Chuyi ignored it, it stopped performing and lowered its head to eat grass quietly.
Lin Chuyi smiled, brushed off the dust on his body, and went to wash his hands and eat.
Lin Jinxiu left three large plates of dumplings for Lin Chuyi. Knowing that she would be back today, Lin Jinxiu went to the town to buy two kilograms of meat, chopped it together with mushrooms and cabbage to make stuffing, and asked Lin Wuyou and Lin Cheng to make dumplings together.
They had been wrapping the food for the whole afternoon, but Lin Chuyi didn't come back until late at night. In order to let Lin Chuyi have a hot meal when she came back, Lin Jinxiu specially saved some for Lin Chuyi, intending to cook and eat it when she came back.
Plans cannot keep up with changes. Although she made an extra big pot of dumpling soup, which was enough for everyone to share, Lin Jinxiu still put a few plates of dumplings into the pot and cooked them, and then served them in front of Lin Chuyi.
Firstly, they were afraid that the raw dumplings would not keep well in the hot weather, and secondly, these were gifts from their siblings and should not be wasted.
There was no meat grinder at this time, and Lin Jinxiu chopped the fillings in the dumplings one by one. Seeing that there were always a few strange-shaped dumplings next to a few normal dumplings, Lin Chuyi could imagine the scene of them sitting together making dumplings.
Ever since Lin Chuyi handed the two books to Lin Jinxiu, Lin Jinxiu liked to pick up needlework and study techniques whenever she had free time, and did not spend too much time on cooking.
Food that is time-consuming and laborious to make, like dumplings, is not even within Lin Jinxiu's consideration.
This was obviously done specially because she would come back today. This made Lin Chuyi feel what it was like to be missed by her family, and her heart was warm.
She pushed the dumplings in front of Lin Jinxiu and said, "Big sister, you should eat some too."
"Eat it. We have all eaten. This is left for you."
Lin Chuyi directly took out a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Lin Jinxiu, "Eat. I was indeed delayed today by something, so I came back so late. You must be hungry after waiting for so long. Eat a few bites to fill your stomach. I won't starve myself. Isn't there a pot of dumpling soup? If it's not enough, you can drink dumpling soup. I'm a little thirsty."
"Then I'll go get you a bowl of soup." Lin Jinxiu immediately stood up and planned to go to the kitchen to scoop some dumpling soup for Lin Chuyi.
Lin Chuyi not only did not refuse, but also made a request to Lin Jinxiu, "Put a few more large dough balls, I like to eat that."
"it is good."
After Lin Jinxiu left, Lin Chuyi brought the bacon and scrambled eggs platter in front of her to the table where Grandpa Huang and his friends were sitting.
Mr. Huang and the others stood up quickly, "Girl, this... this can't be done, our table already has enough food."
They were unwilling to eat with the host family, but Lin Chuyi respected their choice and let them eat at another table.
There were several bowls of white noodle dumpling soup on Grandpa Huang's table, as well as fried bacon and scrambled eggs that Lin Jinxiu had added later.
The dumpling soup contains green vegetables, mushrooms, scallops and dried shrimps. Each dumpling is the size of a quail egg and is very chewy. The soup is very delicious. Even without those two side dishes, you can still eat a full bowl of it.
As for the two side dishes, the bacon and eggs themselves taste pretty good. Lin Jinxiu was willing to use more oil when frying these two dishes, so that their aroma is fully stimulated, and just the smell makes people salivate.
The food at Yaxing could fill them up, but it was impossible for them to eat well. They couldn’t remember how long it had been since they had eaten such good food.
Therefore, when they saw the two dishes and one soup provided by Lin Jinxiu, which included flour, meat and eggs, they were already very moved and satisfied.
Now Lin Chuyi wanted to share her share with them, but they didn't dare to accept it.
The portions of bacon and eggs on their table were already larger than those on Miss Lin's table. They were already very satisfied, and if they took Miss Lin's portion, they would be considered greedy.
