Chapter 464 Because I’m greedy

In the next three days, the Bai family became busy. They added what needed to be added and tidied away. The whole yard became more like a home.

While the women were busy, the men were also very busy. Zhang Liliang took Bai Zehao around to find suppliers. For the sake of safety, he did not dare to find suppliers in the villages near Beiyu City, so the two of them went together. It was very hard to go out early and come back late for three days, but Bai Zehao looked more calm.

Bai Yihong opened up a piece of land in the backyard and built some thatched shed on it. He said he wanted to make some winter vegetables that Ruozhu mentioned. Lin Laifu was also very interested in this, and the two of them were very busy.

In fact, Lin Ping'er didn't really believe in winter vegetables, but she thought that Bai Yihong liked tinkering with things in the fields, so it was good to do something.

Bai Ruozhu took advantage of these three days to prepare the ointment for Rong'er and her mother, and has already used it on them. However, Rong'er's mother's burn area is relatively large, so I am afraid that the ointment is not enough.

Zhang Liliang inquired about the specialties of Beiyu Academy and asked Bai Ruozhu to prepare some of the four treasures of the study. Bai Ruozhu also cut the clothes that were fashionable in Beiyu City for his second brother, and asked his mother to make a straight jacket for his second brother to dress up Bai Zepei. The spirit has improved a lot.

But Bai Zepei is still a little thin. Even if he doesn't do much strenuous work, others can see how hard he works.

Fortunately, Bai Zepei went to Beiyu Academy and came back and said everything was fine. The teacher was very patient and the classmates were also very enthusiastic.

Early three days later, Meng's carriage stopped at the door of the house, which showed how anxious Mrs. Meng was. Bai Ruozhu hugged Xiao Dengdeng, brought a change of clothes for the two of them, and a gift for Mrs. Meng, said goodbye to her family and got on the carriage.

When Mrs. Meng saw Bai Ruozhu, the wrinkles on her smiling face deepened a bit, and she said, "Hongxiu will come over later, waiting to eat your finger-sucking original chicken. Hurry up and give me the child." Come on, go make some finger-licking original chicken."

To be honest, Bai Ruozhu was not very confident about handing Dengdeng over to Mrs. Meng. It was not that she doubted Mrs. Meng's personality, but that she was afraid that the old man would like children and kiss her desperately. They didn't know that this would spread many germs to her. children's.

But Mrs. Meng had already spoken, so she couldn't refuse directly. She had to pretend to hand Dengdeng to the old lady and said, "I'm afraid that this child is too naughty and will give the old lady a headache."

"Can you still outsmart our Brother Hong?" the old lady said nonchalantly.

Bai Ruozhu had no choice but to send Deng Deng over, but she didn't know that Deng Deng started crying with a cry, her little arms desperately hugged Bai Ruozhu's neck and didn't let go, her little eyes clearly said: Don't separate me from my mother.

The old lady was dumbfounded by his aggrieved appearance, and said, "Am I that terrible? This little guy is very close to his mother, that's all. Go away with your mother quickly, or I will end up with the sinner who broke up your mother and son. Same."

Bai Ruozhu hugged Deng Deng and said apologetically to the old lady, "This little guy is very clingy to me."

In fact, she was very happy in her heart, thinking that her son was not in vain, and she didn't want him to stay, so he cried loudly, which was like a roundworm in her belly.

The old lady waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Just hurry up and prepare something delicious for me."

Bai Ruozhu hugged Deng Deng to Fu's body, and then followed the maid to the small kitchen.

In fact, it is not troublesome to make finger-licking original chicken, but she has to bring the ingredients she needs, such as the dry steamed bun residue rolled on the outside.

She cleaned the middle, root and shank of the chicken wings, cut a few strips and neatly placed them on a plate, then poured soy sauce, a little salt with fresh soup powder and a little pepper to marinate. At this time, she had some free time, took the dried steamed buns, cut them into pieces, and grinded the two sides together to remove the remaining residue.

When she made it in her previous life, she used bread crumbs, but now that there is no bread, she can only use dry steamed bun crumbs instead. She grinds it very finely and the taste will be better.

After that, she hugged Dengdeng and played outside the small kitchen for a while. She estimated that the marinating was almost done, then returned to the small kitchen, put Dengdeng aside in a safe place, and started to cook finger-sucking original chicken.

The cook and maid on the side were surprised. Is this fried chicken? Why use such dry and hard steamed buns? Even servants like them wouldn't eat dried steamed buns, right?

Bai Ruozhu ignored the others and started to heat the pot and add oil. This fried chicken looks simple, but the control of heat and timing are very important. Maybe the muscles are either raw or not tender enough.

She quickly beat a few eggs, drained the sauce from the marinated chicken, then rolled it in cornstarch, then dipped it in the egg liquid, and then rolled it in the dry steamed bun residue. , then it went into the pot and exploded.

Soon, a large plate of finger-sucking original chicken was cooked. Bai Ruozhu took another small plate, separated out a few pieces, and sprinkled some red chili powder on it.

By the time the maid brought the finger-sucking chicken back to the room, Yu Hongxiu had already arrived. She sniffed and said, "This is really no ordinary fried chicken. It smells delicious."

Bai Ruozhu walked to the table and sat down with Deng Deng in her arms, and said, "There is a saying for this kind of fried chicken, which is that you have to smack your fingers after eating, so it is called finger-sucking original chicken."

Mrs. Meng couldn't wait anymore. The maid next to her wanted to hand her chopsticks. She waved her hand and said, "No, this must be eaten with your hands."

Bai Ruozhu nodded, showing a "teachable" expression.

Yu Hongxiu didn't hesitate, just like an old lady, she grabbed a piece with her hand, put it in her mouth and ate it. As soon as she ate it, she immediately raised her thumb at Bai Ruozhu, "Yeah, it's delicious!"

"It's delicious, but you can't eat too much. Deep-fried food can easily cause burns, especially for the old lady." Bai Ruozhu said and pointed to the small portion with chili powder, "This one has chili powder, so it has a different flavor. The old lady’s teeth are bad, just take a look.”

Chili powder is already sold in Beiyu City, but the price is relatively expensive, and ordinary people will not buy chili to eat.

The old lady pouted unhappily, "I can only watch you do it. Aren't you irritating me?"

Bai Ruozhu casually pinched a piece with spicy powder, put it to her nose and sniffed it, then said with an intoxicated look: "Because I'm craving for spicy food, but I'm still breastfeeding the baby, so I can't eat more, just one piece is enough." "

Seeing her reluctance at the end, the old lady felt better again, "Look, what are you doing with the chili peppers? Aren't you just greedy for yourself? You deserve it!"

Bai Ruozhu ignored her and took a small bite of the chicken wings with some chili powder. Although there was very little sprinkle on it, it didn't have the same spicy feeling as in her previous life, but it was enough.

The three of them just grabbed the chicken with their hands. A maid outside reported that the eldest lady was coming. When Mrs. Meng came into the room and saw this scene, her already serious face instantly turned colder.
