MTL - I Love Farming-Chapter 48 Outstanding me
Cui Qichao knew for the first time that the tone of the cat can still be so varied, Xiao Bai's cry is getting more and more stern, wow, and it sounds like a curse.
Although no one else was here, Cui Qichao was also scolded slightly awkwardly, but this time he left the handle alone.
Xiaobai meowed for a long while, making people think that if they try hard, they will be able to speak.
The sound was too oozing, and the other cats were stunned. He looked at Xiaobai for a moment, then looked at Cui Qichao, like a crowd watching. In fact, this scene later became the famous scene of Cui Qichao's show, which was played by screenshots.
Now that Cui Qichao was scolded by cats and eaten by a group of cats, the lord's embarrassment is getting worse and he reaches out to catch Xiaobai.
Xiaobai jumped away and went to a high place, and continued to bow his head indignantly. Cui Qichao is nothing but a human, even a cat can admit it, it knows it's wrong, this guy almost recognized Dabai as it at the time, it was just when he came over and didn't know its true body, he could admit it! It doesn't confuse Cui Qichao with the farm official!
"Xiaobai, I apologize to you, don't cry." Cui Qichao reached out to pick Xiaobai.
This time Xiaobai still squeaked and screamed, but didn't struggle hard. When he was taken down by Cui Qichao, the cat's claws slap on Cui Qichao's face. In this way, imitating the movement of Garfield on the previous plane, he did not dare to show his claws. After taking a look, Cui Qi apparently froze on the tide surface, and his heart was also a little hesitant.
However, Cui Qichao was embarrassed to treat Xiaobai because she was wrong first, but she was so patient.
Hahahaha! !! Xiao Bai laughed wildly in the heart, and banged on the gongs and drums, rejoicing. I remembered it for so long, it was better than that Garfield, but it still knew it and kept angry. It wasn't all pretending. The more I saw the two black cats, the more angry they were, and cursing Cui Qichao and cursing innocent black cats.
Cui Qichao saw it bigger from a young age. Isn't it more robust than the two black cats, and smoother than the skins of those two black cats?
Xiaobai was in a state of anxiety. When he slept at night, Cui Qichao wanted to isolate the cats. Xiaobai had yelled around them around the bed first, and no cat dared to jump to Cui Qichao's soft quilt to sleep.
Cui Qichao smiled and put the white mat down.
Xiaobai looked up at the mat.
Cui Qichao: "..."
Xiaobai raised his chin, the cushion moved, and hinted wildly.
Cui Qichao barely caught the cushion and placed it at the end of the bed.
Xiaobai immediately yelled madly again, and the daytime thing has not passed yet. Let's put it this way, Cui Qichao can't distinguish it from other cats in a day, and he won't forgive the big liar.
Cui Qichao was called with sore head. He moved the cushion to the middle. Seeing that Xiaobai was not only crying, he began to grind his claws. He sighed and put the cushion on the bedside. Like a vixen. "
noob:"……"
Xiaobai jumped up and endured the second half of Cui Qichao.
When sleeping at night, Cui Qichao felt that Xiaobai was breathing in his ears and felt very uncomfortable, because Xiaobai had not taken a bath for several days, and he turned his head to avoid Xiaobai's body as much as possible.
Xiaobai has n’t been in Cui Qichao ’s bed for too long. I do n’t know if it ’s a blessing because of misfortune. I did n’t realize that Cui Qichao moved to the side. He slept back and forth, and suddenly woke up. .
Isn't this a dream? Cui Qichao hadn't woken up yet, and when she noticed the movement, she touched Xiaobai's head a few times, and Xiaobai really fell asleep again very quickly. I woke up several times a night, all scolding.
Cui Qichao laughed a little.
Because of Xiao Bai's excellent call, the next day George had no doubt at all. His room was quite close to Cui Qichao. When he heard the miserable meows from Cui Qichao's room, it was definitely that Cui Qichao was enjoying his gift, and he had not rested all night.
...
When Cui Qichao moved the white mat down, it was still reluctant. On this night, it had no place to play, such as pretending to be a dream, kicking Cui Qichao's face with one foot and secretly biting his hair. And so on, just disturbing Cui Qichao now.
Cui Qichao bid farewell to George. Before leaving, George also asked for credit. "I am relieved to hear the frequent movements in your room, and I seem to really like this gift."
"... Yes, thank you for your generous gift. I am really unforgettable." Cui Qichao said so rare.
Unfortunately, George didn't understand, Wu Wu left Northumberland since meeting with Cui Qichao again.
As soon as George left, Cui Qichao couldn't wait to take the cat to release, otherwise Xiaobai wouldn't let him go.
Keeping these cats is the evidence that he is sorry for Xiaobai, who walks around every day, meowing a few times. He even found that Xiaobai was still testing his ability to recognize cats, but after exposing his shortcomings, he carefully observed the body sizes of the three cats, and finally found nuances. As long as he compared them, he recognized them. As for the five senses, there is no way to tell the difference.
Cui Qichao only took Lily, loaded a box of cats to the woodland, and said that he would abuse the cat in the open air. When he was inside, he ordered Xiaobai to take the cats a little farther.
Lily swallowed, "Little, Xiao Bai can understand?"
Although she was convinced that the black cat was not the incarnation of the devil, she was still a little surprised to see such an unusually cold black cat who could understand such complicated instructions.
"Dogs and humans have been able to understand humans for a long time, and cats are the same, not to mention Xiaobai has been trained." Cui Qichao touched Xiaobai's back a few times, and Xiaobai immediately cast a scornful look on Lily.
Lili was once again despised by a cat, weakly saying: "Xiao Bai is really good, then these cats will take care of you."
Xiaobai deserves to be trained as a shepherd cat, half-mud and half-led, and these cats are driven deep into the woods.
Cui Qichao took Lili for a walk in the woods again, and let Lili take a piece of meat that he had secretly brought out to barbecue in the open air. Then he slowly and slowly returned while eating the skewers.
The lord lord and Lily went out with the cat, and everyone saw it.
Now that the cat is gone, the lord master comes back with a skewer. Who wouldn't have such a long eye? Ask the master what about your other cats?
Just secretly admire in my heart, the master is really amazing, eating cat meat does not change his face.
Because from time to time someone was logging and hunting, Xiaobai drove the cats away, and came back a few days later. He climbed the wall, climbed the window, and got into Cui Qichao's room.
"Is everything right?" Cui Qichao asked.
Xiaobai didn't speak, and lay on the table.
Cui Qichao knew it was right, and immediately told Lili to bring the fish prepared earlier. This is the fresh river fish caught on the territory for a few days. After simple cooking, he gave it to Xiaobai. "Master Xiaobai, come on, please."
Xiaobai thought as he ate, I rely on it, I'm too good.
.
New Year's Eve, it is the season for beet planting. As promised last year, farmers in Northumberland, whether self-cultivation farmers or serfs, go to the master's warehouse to collect beet seeds.
Prior to that, they also accepted the instruction, and they generally knew how to plant sugar beet, and the management during the period would be uniformly scheduled. The beet's growing season is short, it only takes more than two months, during which the farmers are extremely concerned.
Last year, it was planted the same way, but not many people paid attention to it. At that time, beets were still planted in saline-alkali land. As a common thing as cabbage, we plucked grass and chased fat.
It ’s different now, it ’s all wealth, they really want to see the beets in their fields every day, whether they look good, whether there are any bugs, if they can, even want to dig the soil to see how the roots grow. Ask the moon what they are missing.
Everyone knows that the bigger the piece, the more sugar water is squeezed out.
As long as you take good care of it for a short time, the return of beet is huge. The brown sugar produced by the master is pumped out, and the rest is transported by the trade team to the parish trade point for food.
Because the price of brown sugar fluctuates, and it may not be the same every day. When the trade team came back with the food that everyone changed for the first time, everyone was crazy, the road was leaking, and the trade team could n’t return to the warehouse. Already.
They couldn't wait to get their own food, stared at the car of the trade team, and kept asking how much they changed back. Even if these are all warriors, they can't stop so many farmers, let alone their own people. They stopped on the road for a while and can only be used to confess the Lord Lord.
Cui Qi Chao simply ordered, don't enter the warehouse first, and distribute it on the spot.
According to the original registration, the grain was distributed to farmers, not oats or barley, but the most precious wheat. At the price of brown sugar, you don't know how much you can change oats. Anyway, with wheat, it's really easy to change oats, so it's easy to transport it back.
Even the amount of wheat is enough to make the serfs dumbfounded.
"So many wheats, so many wheats have been changed?" The serf was almost crying, but his mouth was open again, a crying and smiling expression. So many wheats are their own, and I can't dream of them.
Originally they were still guessing, and they all said that the church also had a lot of brown sugar, would it be too cheap? No one has touched the large church, but they all know that the church's style of action is that God loves the world, but God's taxation will never relax.
At a glance, it is clear that the current sugar production is still in short supply for the entire market, and even if the price drops slightly, it is still a considerable amount for them.
In the past, everyone ate grains. This time, you can measure them. This winter, you can eat black bread every 30 minutes.
Wheat is used to make gruel or black bread. Is that something you rarely eat? What kind of life is this master!
So now there is a dreadful question. Should these wheat be replaced with barley and oats that can be eaten for several years, or should they be eaten directly?
The richer self-cultivated farmers first had an idea and said loudly, "I want to borrow the mills, I'll line up first! I'll use the mills first!"
He did n’t want to switch to oats all the time, so how can he take out a part and make bread? Fight beet planting, not for this day.
There is still no grain on the ground, and since the land was planted in accordance with the way of the master, the grain output has been several times higher than before. As long as the grain is not killed by sudden hail, it is absolutely impossible to eat this year. His family, what if all these wheat is made into bread?
Others also came back to realize that, yes, the family has been waiting for so long, eat a meal before talking. Bread, serfs would never see at home all year round.
The mill was turned for several days for farmers to grind wheat and then toast it into brown bread in the manor's only bread oven.
Even the poorest serf's family had to make a long bar this time, and the big debris had to be picked out. Although they were not rich enough to eat white bread, there was no need for the stones to gnash their teeth this time.
Brown bread cut into pieces, boil hot water, cook radish soup, soften the bread, there is a little bit of sugar left in the house this year, and put a little on the bread.
The serfs were almost like a holiday. This meal was not like the broth directly given by the master before. This was in exchange for the beets they planted. Although it was also a blessing for the master, the meaning was a little different.
Once there was a piece of black bread at the serfs' home, which had to be hidden and eaten secretly. These days, there are even scenes in the village. Everyone holds long black bread sticks and goes to the square to chat, talk to each other about how much wheat they have changed, how much they have eaten, and how much dark bread they made.
"My beet harvest in the field is much more, because I follow the steps sent by the farm officer at each step, so I make two dark breads and see, it's so long."
"Well, think about it. If it weren't for my worms, I cut a little bit of production except for worms, otherwise I would make more black bread ..."
"I have stayed a little bit and plan to boil wheat porridge in winter. My daughter is so old and hasn't drank wheat porridge yet!"
This year, the serfs ate bread, and the richer free people, for the first time, had something like surplus grain. The harvest this year, from the wheat, beans, vegetables, etc. in the field, and beets returned. I ate the food until the next grain harvest, and for the first time, they did n’t dare to eat it. After they got used to it, they knew they would go out and change things. However, this is the end.
...
The harvest of beets is one thing. In this year, the vineyards of Northumberland will be harvested.
If the grapes cut last year are not well taken care of, they may grow in the second year and bear fruit in the third year. But Tiangong is beautiful, and Cui Qichao, a descendant of Shennong, sits in the town. Of course, their vineyards will be rich in the next year.
One acre of Northumberland can produce about one kilogram of grapes. In this era, it is a high-yield fighter, which is enough to darken the eyes of the agricultural officer and make it difficult to distinguish between day and night. In fact, this is Cui Qichao's intention to control the amount of fruit.
Although the results are good, but the quality and sugar content will inevitably decline, and good wines cannot be produced. The wine is focused on the three-point process and seven-point raw materials.
Unlike brown sugar, monasteries around the world already have many high-quality grape varieties and wines. People are studying this. At present, even the harvest time is under control. It is not particularly primitive, but it is a bit competitive.
The wine is called the Holy Blood by the clergy. Northumberland's wine is mainly sold and compared with the church. Of course, we must pay special attention to the quality of the wine.
During the cultivation process, the weather and sunshine Cui Qichao could not control, so he paid special attention to controlling the controllable conditions such as moisture and soil. Therefore, the grapes produced by Northumberland are not particularly large in fruit, high in acidity, extremely rich in flavor, and thick and dense in taste, which is quite distinctive.
At this time, the wine-making know-how may still be a unique secret held by the church priests, but in the future, each family can make a little bit by themselves, and the method of brewing is not a secret at all.
At this time, the brewing method has basically taken shape, and Cui Qichao uses the most cost-effective method that is most suitable for Northumberland and this era to brew. It's almost always the same. First pick the rotten grapes, only the good grapes are left, crushed and squeezed out the juice, and it is only the juice of the pulp. You can't crush the seeds and stems, otherwise the bitter taste will make the wine taste. Also affected.
The grape residue left from the juice, according to Northumberland's usual style of frugality, can of course not be wasted. It can be used as fertilizer and dried for feed to pigs.
The juice is fermented, and agitated properly during the fermentation to clarify the culture. Finally, filter into container. In Northumberland weather conditions, plus raw material picking and processing, the entire process takes about two months.
Cui Qichao has been thinking about it for a long time. Do you want to add some sugar to it for better taste? In the end, I still do n’t think it is necessary. The sugar is too expensive. I ca n’t afford to waste it now. It's almost the same.
After the wine is made, it must be sold to the church, otherwise the wine will become vinegar for a long time. The vinegar here is not the same as Huaxia. It is made from grapes.
Cui Qichao greeted the archbishop early, knowing that he was planting grapes here, but the quality and price still had to be seen.
At this time, Cui Qichao didn't have much wine. Good wine is made. The first thing is to call the priest William to taste. He has tasted various excellent wines in the church. Although Cui Qichao has inquired that he does not know how to make wine, But wine tasting is absolutely fine.
...
To be honest, Da Cong received an invitation from Cui Qichao—No, from the time he saw Northumberland picking grapes, he was already excited.
The quality of those grapes can be distinguished with the naked eye. Although Cui Qichao's winemaking skills are not yet known, he was guessing that the Lord Lord would ask the Archbishop for help and would not make wine. William has long been obsessed with Northumberland's cuisine, and he has long since confessed his appetite.
Repent and return to confession, you still have to eat.
William arrived at the courtyard of the Northumberland Manor. Cui Qichao invited him to sit down in the open-air courtyard. There was also a vine planted here, but it was less than a year old and not too leafy. It would be more comfortable in two years.
William knew that the Lord Lord was generous and could even make a full sugar banquet, but when he saw Cui Qichao asking the cook to cook with wine in front of his face, he stayed.
"Beef is rare." Cui Qichao said with sorrow, farming cattle cannot be killed casually, so there is very little chance of eating beef. This time it is a coincidence that the cook has only ingredients to make beef stew with red wine. Otherwise, it may only be stewed. The pork was eaten by William.
The chef, under the guidance of Cui Qichao, has become very skilled, first frying beef cut into pieces with olive oil.
William saw the beef swell in the oil, and the surface was fried into an attractive brown, and he couldn't help but swallow.
Unlike the whole animal, which is generally loved by the world for cooking, His Excellency the Baron likes to divide the food and cook it. William has deeply understood that this cooking method is good. He wouldn't think he looked like a small family like this anymore, but he thought clearly that it was ... exquisite.
-Only in Northumberland's kitchen, if other territories ask him to eat a small piece of meat, he will feel very humiliated.
The cook cooks the beef, stir-fries the carrots and onions, and simmers until rotten. Adds vanilla leaves such as rosemary and thyme, and then stews the beef and wine together. Sprinkle with precious salt and pepper to make the fragrance even more charming.
Slowly simmering on a low fire, the bright red liquor was bubbling in the gurgling, the rich aroma was lingering, and the meat could not be eaten for a while, William's eyes lingered on the beef, and Cui Qichao had poured the liquor into a silver cup, " Priest, have a drink first. "
"Okay, okay ..." William restlessly looked away from the beef. He had never tried this way of eating, but just by watching and smelling, he knew it would be delicious.
William lifted the silver cup. There was no spice in it, but the smell alone was very good. "The wine is rich in flavor, and your brewing skills are really superb."
Cui Qichao smiled, "It should still be inferior to the wine produced by major monasteries."
"No, no, I think ..." William thought he was just smelling, so he took a sip first, a little bit sour, which is inevitable, but this sour is just right, unlike those crude, inferior The sour wine that people drink is more charming in the mellow liquor, like the taste of apples.
After recollection, it was even more charming and sweet, and William was sure that he had never tasted similar taste in the wines of other monasteries. By comparison, this is definitely not lost to any of the famous monastic vineyards of red wine. Sure enough, he said that Northumberland's raw grapes looked high quality.
William closed his eyes and thought for a long time before he was able to receive the first half of the sentence, "I don't think it is inferior to the wine of any monastery. Lord Baron, the wine produced by your manor is too good to deserve your careful care of the grapes."
"Thank you for the compliment, please try the beef." Cui Qichao motioned to the cook to bring up the stewed beef.
William tasted the beef cooked with extravagant cooking methods. At first, there might be a little bit of flaunting that beef cooked with wine was flaunting. He tasted it, it was just right, it was a perfect match.
The meat quality of the beef was a bit old, after all, it was old dead beef, but when the wine was stewed, the beef was soft and rotten, and the taste was greatly improved because the beef was fried and the surface was slightly harder and more layered. And the slightly acid and some astringency that originally came from red wine completely disappeared after being stewed, leaving only a strong aroma,
With a mouthful of soft and hot beef, William is drunk. "Her baron, your wine and recipe, no matter which monastery you put it in, will make everyone want to break the ring."
