Man Bao and Bai Erlang turned their heads to look at him together, and he said with a calm face: "Not to mention the large fields outside the city, there are also fields in the city, for example, there are several fields behind the Huguo Temple, and there are fields around Xuandu Temple. There will also be wild vegetables."
"However, there are a lot of people in the city, and everyone does not lack vegetables to eat. I'm afraid we won't be able to dig those wild vegetables, so let's go out of the city." This is the same as Zhou Man's family. They have a lot of family members, but they also grow a lot of vegetables. .
In the past, eating wild vegetables might have been due to the lack of vegetables in spring, but later they grew and sold vegetables at home, and after opening a shop in the county town, there was no shortage of vegetables at all.
Their family grows the most vegetables in the village, but every spring when wild vegetables are the best, Zhou Man and her nephews and nieces will still dig wild vegetables with baskets.
He thought that there must be many people in the capital like his family, so Bai Shan said: "Let's pack up and go out of the city with some easy-to-eat dry food."
This is impossible, not to mention Little Qian's, even Mrs. Liu would not let them go out with dry food.
Eight out of ten days I lived in the palace, and I was able to come back to live for two days with great difficulty. The family members wanted to give them all the good things to eat.
Even Mrs. Liu, who has always been strict with them, is the same.
So as soon as they said they were going out of the city to look for wild vegetables, Madam Liu asked Aunt Rong to cook for them, "Put them in a food box, bring a few more servants, and eat them hot when they are hungry at noon."
Xiaoqian, who was about to go out of the city to find wild vegetables, looked at the food and servants they brought, silently closed his mouth, turned back and said to his mother-in-law: "Where are you going to find wild vegetables to eat? It's like learning from them two days ago." It’s like going out for an outing in school, it’s just for fun.”
Qian smiled and said: "Let them go if they want to go, and you also prepare two dishes for them."
Xiaoqian said distressedly: "I originally thought that I might just go out of the city and look for it. If they go, then I'll bake a few meatloaf for them to take with them, but..."
"Then bake meat pies," she said with a smile, "Although the food prepared by the Bai family is good, they may not like it all that much. Just bake them some pies as you wish."
Little Qian got Qian's encouragement, so she turned around and went into the kitchen. She took a piece of lean meat, and cut off a small piece of white fat...
The lean meat was specially brought back from the restaurant by Lao Wu, and now the meat used in restaurants is all good, so it is not easy to use too much lean meat, thinking that there are many people in the family anyway, and they have to buy meat every now and then.
Simply bring back the not-so-tasty lean meat from the restaurant, and the family will save money on buying meat.
With the skills of my sister-in-law, the pork head meat can be made delicious, let alone lean meat.
Xiaoqian cut the meat into thin slices and cubes, and then quickly chopped it up.
Mix the two kinds of meat together, the fat meat is not much, and when it is chopped with the lean meat, you can only see the red meat dotted with grains of indistinct white meat.
She put the minced meat into the basin, because the minced meat was chopped together, and she took a little effort to stir it up.
Only then did Xiao Qian stretch out her hand to touch the face that was waking up...
When she was busy in the kitchen, Man Bao and the others received Yin Huan and Liu Huan who came to eat wild vegetables.
Bai Shan told the two of them regretfully, "There are no wild vegetables at home, so you can't eat them anymore, but we decided to go out of the city to dig them up, will you go?"
Yin He and Liu Huan, who were still somewhat regretful, immediately cheered up and asked, "Shall we leave now? What are we going to prepare?"
Bai Shan waved his hand and said, "No need, my family is making preparations."
Man Bao: "Shall we carry two more baskets?"
Bai Erlang said: "Let's mention a few more, we can find more when we go separately."
Yin Ju came over excitedly and asked, "What do wild vegetables look like?"
Liu Huan hesitated, "Should it be similar to a dish?"
Only then did the three of Bai Shan realize that these two didn't seem to know wild vegetables, no, maybe they didn't even know the vegetables that were growing, right
Bai Shan took them to the garden, pointed to the vegetable ridge in the corner and asked, "Do you know them?"
The two of them saw the rows without any grass in the middle, so they guessed that they were vegetables. They squatted down and looked carefully, then nodded to show that they already knew vegetables.
Old Zhou Tou walked past the garden, couldn't help but said to Zhou Dalang who was walking back with a hoe, "I don't even know a green vegetable, don't they even look down when they ride by the field?"
Zhou Dalang said: "Father, they live in the city, they don't ride horses, they all take carriages."
And Liu Huan just happened to say to Bai Shan and the others, "I knew I would ride my horse today. It's just the right time of spring. Go out for an outing... picking wild vegetables and riding a horse would be the best, right?"
Bai Shandao: "What's so difficult about this, it's okay to ask your servants to go back and bring them here, anyway, it's not far away, and my family is still preparing things."
Liu Huan thought for a while, but still shook his head, "Forget it, I just went back and asked my grandma for a rest and ran out. Grandma already had a big opinion. If I send people back to change horses, I guess my grandma will be so angry that I will also be killed." Take it back."
The three of Bai Shan have already decided to ride a horse.
"I don't know what's wrong recently. The lecturers always take up our archery and riding lessons. We went to West Neiyuan once in this ten days."
Originally, they had two sessions of riding and archery and two sessions of archery in one ten-day period, but in this ten-day period, each of these two subjects was taken up by one class, which prevented Bai Shan and Bai Erlang, who like horseback riding, from running to their fullest.
On the contrary, after Man Bao found out that he couldn't attend their riding and archery class, every time he went out of the palace to attend class, he had to lead Chiji to the imperial medical office by himself, and then the groom in the palace would follow behind in a carriage.
If the groom hadn't been Rong Si, he would definitely not have agreed.
Man Bao was still a little happy when he thought of this incident, she said: "Are you going to take the exam again?"
"Impossible, it's only spring, we passed the exam years ago." Bai Erlang was shocked by this sentence.
Liu Huan also quickly said: "That's right, at least June and July will start in the middle of the year, right? It's still early."
Yin Ju looked at Bai Shan, "Don't you know?"
Bai Shan hesitated for a moment and said: "Sir, he showed a little bit of air, it seems that Kong Jijiu wants our people from Chongwen Hall to compare with the students from Guozijian."
Liu Huan: "How do you compare?"
Bai Erlang asked at the same time: "Why don't I know? Why is Mr. partial to you?"
Bai Shan glanced at him and said, "Mr. didn't favor me. Last time I accompanied you to hand in the book you were fined to copy. Mr. said it in front of us."
Man Bao turned his head to look at him, Bai Erlang was stunned, "Yes, is it? I, why don't I have any memory at all?"
Bai Shan: "... You asked me? I thought you knew how to be cautious. You knew that it was not easy to reveal such unconfirmed news, so you didn't shout it out. After a long time of trouble, did you not listen to what Mr. said?"
