MTL - A Blessed Daughter-Chapter 34 Braised Spring Bamboo Shoots

  Chapter 34 Braised spring bamboo shoots in oil

   "Yes, the young master gave it to the eldest lady." Xiaobei replied.

   "Where did your young master get this thing?" Wei Ruo asked.

   "This...I don't know..." Xiao Bei was vague.

   "Is your young master in the yard?" Wei Ruo asked.

"exist."

   "I'll find him!"

  Since asking Xiaobei doesn't yield anything, I'd better ask Wei Jinyi in person.

  In the bedroom, Wei Jinyi's lower body was covered by the quilt, and his upper body leaned against the cushion, holding a book in his hand.

  He was wearing a white singlet, his face was still haggard, and the sickly beauty looked like a vine and iceberg flower that had been beaten by rain.

  Wei Ruo walked over, and Wei Jin raised his head to look at her.

   "You want to give me such a precious old mountain ginseng?" Wei Ruo asked, pointing to the wooden box in his hand.

"yes."

   "Where did you get such a valuable thing?" Wei Ruo was curious.

   "I rescued an old man a few years ago, so I gave it away." Wei Jin also replied.

  Xiao Bei heard Wei Jinyi's answer from the side, and muttered in his heart, the young master doesn't even blush when he lies! Where did the rescue come from? This old mountain ginseng is clearly...

   "Are you sure you want to give me such a valuable old wild ginseng? It's worth a lot of money to sell it! You can get it for one or two hundred taels." Wei Ruo reminded.

   "You have saved my life, which is even better than Laoshan Ginseng." Wei Jin also replied.

  The medicine that Wei Ruo gave him is a precious item that can’t be bought anywhere else, and can’t even be asked for.

   It is true to say so, but Wei Ruo looked at Wei Jinyi's shabby appearance, and guessed that the value of this old wild ginseng was worth all his net worth.

  He is so poor, but he can still give her such a valuable thing, it can be seen that he is really a kind person, and she did not make a mistake in her decision to save him at the risk of being exposed that day.

   "Okay then, I'll take the old wild ginseng, and I'll give you a few pills next time I use it to make big tonic pills." Wei Ruo said.

   "Yeah." Wei Jin also agreed, but didn't really expect Wei Ruo to give him any supplement pills.

  ###

   Two days later, Wei Jinyi finally "cured" from his illness.

  I can eat, drink, get out of bed and walk.

  Everyone in the Wei manor breathed a sigh of relief, finally they don't have to worry about being punished by Wei Mingting.

  Wei Ruo came to see Wei Jinyi again, and dug away the bamboo shoots in his yard.

   This bamboo shoot will be completely old if you don’t eat it anymore. It’s better to sacrifice to her five internal organs temple than to waste it.

   Just in time for Xiaobei to cook food and bring it to Wei Jinyi's room.

   Seeing those meals, Wei Ruo showed a surprised expression, the porridge he drank was fine, and when recovering from a serious illness, drink some water, which is good for gastrointestinal absorption.

  The problem is that there are two dishes: one is some yellowed green vegetables, and the other is the same dish of fried radishes that look seriously suspected to be burnt.

  Although it is said that people who are recovering from a serious illness should eat lightly, but light is light. What is the situation with this yellow and burnt food?

   "Are the vegetables that the big kitchen sent you wilted?" Wei Ruo asked.

   "No, the vegetables given by the big kitchen are quite fresh." Xiao Bei explained.

  In the past, it was possible to give them stale dishes, but recently the servants in the mansion dare not deduct their fees anymore.

   "So it was your cook who fried it for you?" Wei Ruo asked.

  Hearing this, Xiaobei scratched his head embarrassingly: "That...Miss, our cook is me...I'm not very good at cooking..."

After thinking for a while, Xiaobei immediately added an explanation: "But my usual level can be higher, and I rarely burnt it. Today was an accident. I was thinking about the young master's medicine, so I burned it! "

   There are only two people in Yingzhuyuan. Although there is a small kitchen that can operate a small stove, there is no cook.

  Wei Ruo looked back at Xiumei.

   Without Wei Ruo opening her mouth, Xiumei already understood what she meant.

   "Miss, how about I use these light bamboo shoots to cook a braised spring bamboo shoot in oil?" Xiumei suggested.

   "Go, you go to peel the bamboo shoots first, I'll go back and bring you some sweet potato starch." Wei Ruo said.

  The master and servant started to act separately. The two were so excited that Xiao Bei was very worried.

  Thinking of the choking food made by the eldest lady last time, Xiaobei dare not have any hope for this time.

   "Master, do you want to stop them?"

   "Let them go."

  Different from the rejection and impatience before, Wei Jin did not refuse this time either.

   Not long after, Wei Ruo came back with Xiumei, who was still holding a pot of steaming spring bamboo shoots in oil.

  Xiumei put the plate on Wei Jinyi's bedside table, and said, "Second young master, try these spring bamboo shoots, this time they are not spicy, so they won't choke you."

  Wei Jin also looked over. The tender yellow bamboo shoots were wrapped in a tan thick sauce, glistening with oil, and dotted with green shallots.

  Compared with the two yellowed and burnt green vegetables and radishes made by Xiaobei, I don’t know how many times more attractive.

  With the mentality of giving it a try, Wei Jin also took a piece into his mouth and chewed it carefully.

   This time, he didn't cough or choke. His expression was usually dull, and he wouldn't show any joyful things directly, so it was impossible to tell his evaluation of this plate of braised spring bamboo shoots through his expression for a while.

  "The taste is rich, fresh and delicious, with the sweetness of bamboo shoots and a complex aroma of sauce. What is that?"

  Wei Jin also looked up at Wei Ruo.

   "Soy sauce, didn't I give you a jar?"

   It was indeed given away, but Wei Jinyi had never tasted it. He let Xiaobei dispose of it casually, and he didn't know where Xiaobei disposed of it.

  Xiaobei looked down at the ground guiltily, for fear that Wei Ruo would find out that he had randomly placed the presents from her.

  How did he know that the eldest lady didn't just say it casually, her soy sauce is really a secret soy sauce, and now it seems that the soy sauce that the eldest lady said has additional medicinal value is also true.

   "How is it better than those green vegetables and radishes?" Wei Ruo smiled.

   "Yeah." Wei Jin also replied in a low voice, unable to hear the emotion.

  Wei Ruo watched Wei Jinyi finish a whole bowl of porridge and a whole plate of stewed spring bamboo shoots, and then returned to Songyuan with Xiumei with a smile on her face.

  As soon as Wei Ruo left, Wei Jin asked Xiaobei where the jar of soy sauce was going.

   "I'll look for it!" Xiao Bei quickly ran into the small kitchen to search, and found the ashes jar in the corner.

  Although there is dust on the surface, the jar is well sealed, and the contents inside should be fine.

  Xiaobei returned to Wei Jinyi's bedroom excitedly holding the jar of soy sauce.

   "Look, young master, the jar is still here, well preserved."

   "Well, save it."

   "Understood, Master! I will put it in the safest place!"

  Don't say that this soy sauce is so delicious, even if it is not delicious, it is the eldest lady's wish and they must treat it well.

  Now the relationship between their young master and eldest lady is different, they can be regarded as "friends of life and death"!

   Don’t worry, my sons and daughters, the heroine will start her business again, and she will soon open her first shop in Xingshan County.
