The Space Doctor Became the Favorite of the Exiled Powerful Minister

Chapter 32 Secret

Mrs. Cui opened her eyes wide and looked hard, but she still couldn't believe it.

She came to the yard and looked at the fine salt on her hands under the noon sun. She marveled over and over again, "My dear, it's so thin and white!"

The salt I used to eat in the capital was not so fine and white.

Mrs. Cui was so excited and happy after being shocked that her lips widened.

She hurriedly ran into the kitchen room and whispered: "Zhiluo, this salt is really good. It's so fine and white, it's so pleasant to look at."

“I didn’t expect that such low-quality coarse salt could be refined into such good salt. The value of these salts must be at least more than one hundred coins.

Two kilograms extracted more than one kilogram of very good salt.

 It depends on how cost-effective it is.

 Much better than the salt sold in shops for 70 cents per pound.

Jiang Zhiluo said: "It's better to dry it and put it in it."

“This way you can use more salt for cooking and save some.”

“Yes, Zhiluo still has a way.”

At this time, Mrs. Cui admired her daughter-in-law even more.

 This is the fairy daughter-in-law.

 There are so many things I know.

 Fortunately, she didn’t follow to stop Zhiluo at that time.

Mrs. Cui thought that no matter what Zhiluo wanted to do in the future, she only needed support and she didn’t need to worry about anything else.

 At the end of the day, there is absolutely nothing wrong with listening to Zhi Luo.

Mrs. Cui was happy for a while, and then she said to Jiang Zhiluo: "Zhiluo, the pig's urine has been cleaned. I scrubbed it hard several times and cleaned it several times. It's clean."

Mrs. Cui loves to be clean herself.

 Knowing that you are going to eat this food, you naturally need to wash it carefully.

Jiang Zhiluo came to the yard, took a look, and said with a smile: "Mom, you are very clean and good."

 “In this case, let’s make meat buns for dinner tonight.”

 The cost of making Roujiamo with meat is too high.

Even if she wanted to eat it, Jiang Zhiluo would not be willing to use meat to eat it now.

 One pound of meat costs about 20 yuan, which can buy many pounds of grain.

If you make more money in the future, you will naturally cook braised pork to make Roujiamo.

But if you want to eat Roujiamo now, you can use the braised pork meat to make Roujiamo, which is just as delicious when sandwiched in pancakes.

 It is already noon now, and it is too late to do anything now.

 Stewing braised meat takes a long time.

Mrs. Cui was confused about how to make Roujiamo, because they only bought one pound of meat.

 But she didn’t ask any more questions.

She can do whatever she thinks Zhiluo will do.

“Zhiluo, what should we have for lunch?”

Jiang Zhiluo asked: "Mom, do you want to eat anything?"

Mrs. Cui thought for a while, she had a lot of things she wanted to eat.

 Eating so much food in the capital used to be commonplace, but after being exiled, I missed that food even more.

Meat in particular has become a rarity.

Mrs. Cui also knows that her family is poor now. It’s not about what she wants to eat, but what she can eat.

 Eating a full meal was something she did not dare to think about before.

Since Zhiluo came, the family has been able to eat almost every meal and eat well.

 Because the box of leeks I ate in the morning was quite filling and satiated my stomach, so I had been busy all morning and I didn’t feel very hungry now.

“I think I can eat whatever I want, Zhiluo, you just have to arrange it.”

Jiang Zhiluo thought for a while, she still had a lot of things to do in the afternoon. It was already noon now, and it would take a long time to make complicated meals.

 It’s better to make a quick and easy lunch and have something good in the evening.

Jiang Zhiluo wants to make egg fried rice, so she has time to make egg fried rice. But if you are making egg fried rice, you need to steam the rice immediately. Only after the rice is steamed can you make egg fried rice.

Jiang Zhiluo suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, Mom, there are still steamed buns at home, right?"

“Yes, there are two more steamed buns. I originally wanted to make some steamed buns.”

Zhiluo and Hejin got married before, so she steamed a pot of white flour steamed buns.

But white flour is always expensive. After eating it, Mrs. Cui was reluctant to make it again, so she decided to use cornmeal to make steamed buns.

When Jiang Zhiluo thought about Wo Wo Tou, she felt like her throat was a little tight and she couldn't digest it.

 She still likes to eat thin-noodle steamed buns.

“Mom, we can make money now, just eat some thin noodles.”

Mrs. Cui thought the same thing. Now that they can make candy, they can make money by making candy. Life is no longer as tight as before, and they can indeed eat thin noodles.

Moreover, there are only three people in their family for the time being, so they can't eat much even if they eat white flour.

She nodded and said, "Okay, Mom, listen to you."

 “Mom, let’s make fried steamed buns for lunch.”

Mrs. Cui was in a daze. She had never heard of fried steamed buns.

But Mrs. Cui nodded and said, "If you need my help, tell me."

“Mom, please help me wash a radish, wash some onions and garlic, and wash these peppers too.”

Jiang Zhiluo bought some chili peppers at a market stall, one of which was used to make marinade.

 Fried rice is delicious with a little seasoning, but it would be even better with a little spiciness.

Jiang Zhiluo also wants to plant some peppers in the yard. After buying the land, she will also plant some peppers in the ground.

Also plant some in the space.

If there are many fields in the space, she would like to grow some peppers in the space.

Mrs. Cui went to wash the vegetables as Jiang Zhiluo said.

Jiang Zhiluo took out two steamed buns from the cabinet and cut them into fine pieces.

While they were busy, Cui Hejin came back.

Mrs. Cui saw her son back and said happily: "You came back just in time. We are preparing to cook."

 “By the way, let me tell you something happy.”

At this time, Mrs. Cui was sitting on a small stool washing radishes and waved to Cui Hejin.

Cui Hejin squatted down gently so that his mother could talk to him.

Mrs. Cui looked around. There was no courtyard wall in this house, so she was afraid of being heard.

Mrs. Cui lowered her voice and said, "I sold all the candies I made this morning and earned eighty-two cents. But I bought some things to use, and Zhiluo posted some herself..."

“You don’t know that everyone wants to buy it, and they also said that if we have it, we will buy it...”

“There is also the coarse salt, such large particles of inferior salt. Zhiluo has made fine white salt. You don’t know how beautiful and fine the salt looks..."

Mrs. Cui said, her voice lowered, for fear of being heard.

 “I’m telling you, this is a secret and cannot be told.”

 The imperial court did not allow the sale of private salt, and they could not make money by producing fine white salt, but it was very cost-effective for their own use.

Cui Hejin raised his eyebrows with a surprised look.

“Don’t believe it, Zhiluo knows a lot.”

 “Mom, I understand.”

Looking at her son's eyes, Mrs. Cui always wondered why he was so calm?

 Similarly, my son has a calm temperament, and his emotions and anger are not expressive. It is difficult to tell what he is thinking.

Jiang Zhiluo didn't say much when she saw Cui Hejin coming back.

On the other hand, Cui Hejin came to the stove entrance, stood in front of Jiang Zhiluo and said, "Do you want to light a fire to cook?"

Jiang Zhiluo was stunned for a moment. Was Cui Hejin taking the initiative to talk to her?

Jiang Zhiluo arched her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Well, I'll make a stir-fry later."
