Flowers in full bloom

Chapter 773 People are under the roof

In the evening, when Hua Lei and Rong Jin entertained Han Qingge and Fan Siyu, they did not inform Feng Wanniang. They just asked a few maids to bring a simple dinner.

The same specifications as the maids and women who came with Anping County, one and a half meat dishes, two vegetables, and one soup, enough to fill you up, that's all. It can't be said that they were neglected, but they were definitely not treated as in-laws.

Feng Wanniang knew that Hua Lei had not said anything before, but now she used facts to slap them both in the face.

But what can I do? When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. This time, I pestered Fan Siyu to bring me and my son with me because I wanted to help my son find a future.

Even if she didn't want to endure Hua Lei's expression, she had to endure it. Feng Wanniang secretly thought that as long as Fan Siyu supported her and her son, she wouldn't have to worry.

When her son really entered the academy and had a promising future, she would be able to hold her head high. Unfortunately, she had imagined it perfectly. However, how things would develop in the future was not something she could decide.

In the next few days, Han Qingge and his wife lived in the guest house. Hua Lei and Rong Jin helped to send a letter to Gui Jijiu of Changliang Prefecture.

It would take some time to wait for a reply. That day, Rong Jin took Fan Siyu to the academy in Changlanzhou, which was not far from the government office. Hua Lei asked Qingqi to invite Han Qingge to her house.

"Cousin, are you looking for me?" Han Qingge, who had rested for two days, wore a moon-white dress today and looked much better.

However, the gloom in his eyes still did not dissipate. When he saw Hua Lei, he also politely greeted her without any reluctance.

"Miss Han, this is the rice noodle roll I asked the kitchen to make. It tastes good. Would you like to try it?" Hua Lei pointed to the plate on the table and asked politely. Rong Jin and Fan Siyu were not there, so Hua Lei also changed the address.

"Cousin..., if you don't mind, you can call me cousin like you do me. I have already taken the honor of being your cousin." Han Qingge lowered her head.

Seeing that her whole body was somewhat dull, there was no trace of the bright and flamboyant Han Qingge when she was in the Marquis' Mansion in Shangjing City. Hua Lei paused and swallowed back what she wanted to say.

Forget it, I shouldn't bother about the little things in the past. As long as Han Qingge doesn't affect the relationship between me and Rong Jin, there's no need for me to embarrass her.

Now, Han Qingge is simply Rong Jin's cousin. Hua Lei paused and spoke softly.

".......Okay, then I will follow my husband's way of addressing you and call you cousin. Cousin, I heard from Qingqi that you haven't had a good appetite these days.

This is a new snack that Sister He Hua has come up with, called rice noodle rolls. It is soft, glutinous, fresh and delicious. Try it and see if you like it?"

"Thank you, cousin." Han Qingge sat down at the table and picked up the chopsticks. She was really sleepless and upset these days because she was worried about her three daughters.

"This rice noodle roll is very simple to make. It is made from rice ground into rice paste. It is low-cost and tastes good. It is not available in Xichang yet.

However, the locals here prefer to eat rice, so they should also like rice rolls made from rice. If you set up a snack shop near the academy to attract students, the business should be good.

The academy only provides lunch, no breakfast or dinner, students need to take care of it themselves." Hua Lei said casually while eating rice rolls.

"Cousin, what is...?" Han Qingge, who was eating rice rolls, put down her chopsticks, looked at the flower buds, and said hesitantly.

“Originally, I wanted Qingxia and Qingqiu to rent a small shop near each academy to do the rice noodle roll snack business.

But, I also thought that my husband and I might have to go back to the capital at the end of this year, so I just thought about it and let it go. But I am still very optimistic about this small business. "Hua Lei took a sip of soy milk and said again.

"Cousin......?" Han Qingge's eyes lit up for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, she asked carefully, "Cousin, can you let me try? If I make money, I'll give you a share, okay?"

"Cousin, are you interested? Sure. If you have an idea, you can give it a try. Although I can't say that you will make a fortune every day, it is definitely an income.

As for profit sharing, forget it. It’s a small business and I won’t get involved.” Hua Lei said.

"Thank you, cousin. I'm sorry for what happened before." Han Qingge's face turned a little red.

"Why bring up the past? My husband and I both hope you live a good life." Hua Lei smiled and said, "Originally, I wanted to give you a recipe for stewed food.

However, the weather in Xichang is hot, and stewed food can easily go bad and make you sick. So, I thought, this rice noodle roll is better, freshly made, and cheap, which is suitable for you. "

The method is also simple. When I have some free time these few days, I can ask Sister Hehua to teach you the method of making rice noodle rolls. "

Chunhua, the maidservant beside Han Qingge, was betrothed to a minor steward under Han Qingge. Now they are married and have always been by Han Qingge's side. She also came along this time.

"Well, but I don't know if my husband can enter the academy? But it doesn't matter. Even if he can't, I can do this when I return to Anping County." Han Qingge's face showed some spirit.

"Don't worry, my husband will take care of this matter." Hua Lei smiled.

In the next few days, Chun Hua took a few little girls with her and followed Sister He Hua in the kitchen to learn how to make rice rolls. The method of making this rice roll is similar to the method of drawer-style rice rolls in the previous life.

Before making it, wash the rice, soak it in clean water to make it swell, and then grind it into fresh rice paste with a stone mill. Then filter it with gauze, let it rise for a while, and stir it into a thick and delicate rice paste before using.

Brush a thin layer of oil on a flat plate, scoop a spoonful of rice paste into the plate, and shake it gently to make the rice paste evenly cover the bottom of the plate.

Then beat an egg, add some minced meat, vegetables, onions, etc. Put it in a steamer and steam it over high heat for a few breaths. When bubbles appear on the surface of the rice noodle rolls, it means that the rice noodle rolls are cooked.

Use a spatula to scrape the steamed rice rolls from the plate and roll them into strips. Cut them into small pieces, place them on a plate, pour the seasoning on them, and you can eat them. Paired with a cup of soy milk, they are also very nutritious.

Moreover, the ingredients of rice noodle rolls can be changed temporarily according to the taste of customers. You can make it with egg and meat, double eggs, or add shrimps, etc.

The most important factor in determining whether rice noodle rolls are delicious is the seasoning. Rice noodle rolls can be made sweet or salty. Sister Hehua only taught Chunhua and Han Qingge how to make the seasoning.
