Traveling through time with a house, I teach people all over the country how to farm

Chapter 347 Amaranth and Water Spinach

Zheng Sisi asked curiously, "From what I understand, dandy boys are good at teasing people, bullying the common people, and forcing women into prostitution. In short, they are prostitution, gambling, and drugs. Do you know all of them?"

There was laughter all around, even Sheng Zhen smiled.

Zhong Ruiyu was so angry that his face turned red, and he said bitterly: "Zheng Sisi, can you imagine me to be better? Am I that vulgar?"

Zheng Sisi became even more curious: "There are still high-class dandies. Could it be that you are also good at writing poetry, singing, playing musical instruments, or singing? But I always heard that you don't like reading!"

Zhong Ruiyu went mad: "There's no way I can talk to you today. I can't explain it to you clearly, alas!" Then he shut up, lowered his head and walked away quickly.

There was another burst of laughter from behind, and Zheng Sisi's laughter was the loudest and most wild.

Zheng Sisi knew that Zhong Ruiyu was a very upright and kind person, otherwise he would not be so close to Sheng Zhen. She just wanted to see Zhong Ruiyu get so angry that he jumped up and down. It was too funny. Please forgive her bad taste.

A large group of people sent the dishes to the kitchen and left. The cooks were also stunned to see so many side dishes.

Zheng Sisi came in and saw that everyone was already preparing the ingredients for lunch. She said, "Let's add two side dishes for lunch today."

"Oh!" When the people in the kitchen heard that there was a new dish, they all shouted happily.

Zheng Sisi asked, "Madam Gui, how many people are there in the mansion today?"

Nanny Gui stepped forward and said, "Nanny Li said that many people went out to do business today. There are about fifty people in the mansion."

Zheng Sisi: "Okay, I understand."

A cook came forward and asked, "County Lady, what are we going to do with these dishes?"

Zheng Sisi: "Yes, I will teach you how to pick vegetables first."

She pulled a small stool and sat down, and a cook came over with a basket of vegetables.

Zheng Sisi took a handful of red amaranth and said, "This is called red amaranth, which is a green vegetable. You can make stir-fried red amaranth, boiled red amaranth with garlic seeds, or boiled red amaranth with preserved eggs. Boiled red amaranth tastes better than fried red amaranth, and boiled red amaranth with preserved eggs tastes better and is fresher. To pick the vegetables, just pinch off the roots one by one. If they are very long, pinch them twice. Discard the old roots and wash them clean."

Everyone nodded to show that they had learned it.

Zheng Sisi also demonstrated how to cook water spinach. Water spinach is simple to cook, just cut it into several sections and wash it clean before putting it in the pot. She said: "Water spinach can be stir-fried with garlic, it's very simple."

Finally, it was coriander. She said, "Coriander is used as a condiment just like onions and garlic. It can add flavor to dishes. It can also be used as a cold dish. I'll make some later. Do you have any stewed food at home?"

Aunt Gui said, "Yes, we braised it together in the morning."

Zheng Sisi: "Okay, I'll make some stewed vegetables. You guys pick the vegetables first, don't pick them all, save some and send them to the restaurant in the afternoon. Aunt Gui will send someone to teach you, and we'll be able to serve them starting tomorrow."

Aunt Gui smiled and said, "Okay, County Lady."

Zheng Sisi came to the flower hall in the front yard. The three of them were so restless that they had already started running fast.

The skills of the three of them are the best. They are different when they go to the battlefield to kill enemies. They have strategies and can think three steps ahead before taking one step.

Zheng Zhiyuan should have also practiced martial arts, read military books and learned strategies, but he is slightly inferior to Sheng Zhen.

Zhong Ruiyu loved playing the most, loved calling the most, and had the worst skills. The three of them never won when they played together, and the occasional win was due to luck and good cards, not skills.

Zheng Sisi took a look and left. She went to find Qiuxiang and planned to make gloves and masks.

She placed her hand directly on a piece of cloth, spread her five fingers, and used the fire stick she found in the small kitchen to draw along her fingers. Then she said to Qiuxiang, "Cut out the pattern of this finger, turn it over and sew two pieces of cloth like this together."

Qiuxiang is fast at work and her stitches are dense and neat, so she finished sewing in no time.

Zheng Sisi said in surprise while holding the sewn gloves: "So fast."

Qiuxiang said: "Because it's very simple!"

Well, Zheng Sisi can sew, but her skills are not good. If she sews a glove, there may be a few bloody holes on her fingers.

She turned the gloves over, and the extra cloth for mending was turned inside out and disappeared. Zheng Sisi put the gloves on her hands, and because they were made according to her hand shape, they fit perfectly.

She took it off and said to Qiuxiang, "Qiuxiang, try it on and feel it for yourself."

Qiuxiang put them on as she was told: "The county lady really has a brilliant idea. Wearing these gloves will keep my hands warm in winter. Even the seam can be treated a little better so that it won't stick to my hands."
