Chapter 396 Cousin, this soy sauce is very salty
When Lan Ruer heard that Shen Ruolan had prepared ten taels of dowry for her, she knelt on the ground and pleaded with regret on her face: "Wu, Village Chief, I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me once, okay? I really don't dare to do it again."
"Village leader, please."
After Lan Ruer finished speaking, she kept kowtowing to Shen Ruolan.
It was a pity that Shen Ruolan didn't even look at her. Seeing that Bai Zhen's face was still dark and ugly, she looked at him and asked, "Bai Zhen, are you satisfied with this handling?"
Bai Zhen listened to Shen Ruolan's question. He looked at the woman on the ground and gritted his teeth and said, "Madam Shen, just don't let me marry her. You can do whatever you want."
After Bai Zhen finished speaking, he glared at the woman in front of him with hatred. Bai Zhen had lived for more than 20 years and had never seen such a shameless woman.
Shen Ruolan nodded to Bai Zhen and said to the people behind her: "It's okay, go back and rest."
"Yes, village chief." After hearing that everything was alright, the villagers all went back.
After the villagers went back, Shen Ruolan sat in front of Bai Zhen's house and watched Shen Jing beat Lan Ruer with twenty boards. Only then did she go home to rest.
The next day, when Shen Ruolan got up, Shen Jing had already left the mountain with her two younger sisters.
Shen Ruolan didn't ask any more questions. After she finished her breakfast, she told Ji Ning, "Ji Ning, lead the way. Let Ye Bing carry me to the soy sauce shop."
"Yes, Master." After Ji Ning finished speaking, she smiled at Ye Bing and said, "Sister Ye, please follow me."
Ye Bing nodded, then followed with Shen Ruolan in his arms.
Shen Ruolan was thinking in Ye Bing's arms that her legs would not heal in a short time. She could walk around the house, but she couldn't walk long distances. She had to make a wheelchair for herself.
Shen Ruolan had a plan in mind. She planned to draw the blueprints when she returned and ask the carpenters to help her finish it as soon as possible.
Suddenly Ji Ning stopped and said, "Master, we're here."
Shen Ruolan heard it, she collected her thoughts, looked at the hundreds of large vats in the yard, and said to Ji Ning: "Help me find a taller chair."
"Yes," Ji Ning said, and quickly found a chair for Shen Ruolan to sit down.
Shen Ruolan sat down and opened a large jar. A strong smell of bean paste came out, which made her couldn't help but sniff.
Ji Ning looked at the black bean paste and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Master, how do we eat these black beans?"
Shen Ruolan smiled at Ji Ning and said, "You'll know in a moment."
After saying that, she picked up a bamboo basket and pressed it into the large vat, letting the soy sauce in the vat flow into the bamboo basket. She then called out to Ji Ning, "Ji Ning, get a wooden basin and scoop out the soy sauce."
"Yes, master." Although Ji Ning didn't know what was so good about this black thing, she still tried her best to do what her master said.
Shen Ruolan waited until Ji Ning had scooped out most of the soy sauce, then asked her to pour the soy sauce into the pot, boil it, let it cool, and then filter it. A small jar of soy sauce was ready.
Shen Ruolan lowered her head and smelled it. The long-lost smell of soy sauce made her take a deep breath and said happily, "Hmm, it smells so good!"
After that, she said to Ji Ning, "Ji Ning, quickly send the soy sauce to the kitchen. I will make some real braised pork for everyone today."
Although she had made braised pork before, the color was greatly reduced because there was no soy sauce, and the taste was naturally slightly worse.
"Yes, Master." After Ji Ning finished speaking, she paused and continued, "Master, you can tell me later and I will do it."
She couldn't bear to leave her sick master to cook for everyone.
Soon the master and servant came to the kitchen. Shen Ruolan was in charge of the command and Ji Ning was in charge of the operation. With the tacit cooperation of the master and servant, a table of delicious dishes was finally prepared before lunch.
Ji Ning looked at the dishes that were similar to the usual ones and asked his master, "Master, except for the braised pork and braised spareribs, the other dishes look the same as usual, right?"
Shen Ruolan was well prepared. She brought two bowls of cold noodles, one with soy sauce and one without. She handed them to Ji Ning and asked, "Try these two bowls of noodles. Do you know the difference in taste?"
If you use a small amount of soy sauce when cooking, you may not taste the difference in the short term.
But there is a big difference between noodles and chili sauce or chili dipping water. You can taste the aroma of soy sauce in one bite, and you will like it. It makes you feel that the more you eat, the better it tastes.
After listening to her master, Ji Ning tasted both bowls of noodles. Although both bowls were delicious, the one with soy sauce was more flavorful and fragrant. She looked at her master with surprise and said, "Master, I didn't expect that black water made from soybeans would be so delicious."
Shen Ruolan shook her head at Ji Ning and couldn't help but laugh: "That's not black water, that's called soy sauce. Just follow the method I just taught you and filter out five jars of it and send it to Lu Kai."
"Yes, Master." Ji Ning replied happily.
At the dinner table, Shen Hui, a foodie, could taste the new flavors of the dishes at one bite. After he finished eating, he put down his chopsticks and asked Shen Ruolan, "Sister Lan, do you have any new seasonings for your dishes today?"
Shen Ruolan, who was preparing dinner for her children, heard her third cousin's question. She smiled at him and said, "I didn't expect that my third cousin would find out so soon."
Shen Hui was instantly excited after hearing what Shen Ruolan said. He asked her curiously, "Sister Lan, tell me quickly, what new seasonings have you added?"
Shen Hui has lived here for more than a year. Whenever Shen Ruolan has something new, he will be the first to ask for a copy for himself.
If the seeds could be planted, he had sent them back to Yaowang Valley so that his family could plant them and he would have something to eat when he returned in the future.
If it wasn't seeds, he would ask for some and keep it in his room, and occasionally go out into the wild to secretly give himself a snack.
After more than a year of getting along, Shen Ruolan knew exactly what her cousin was thinking. Like a magic trick, she took out a small bamboo tube and handed it to him, saying, "Here, this is it..."
Shen Hui saw Shen Ruolan take out a small bamboo tube. Before she could finish her words, he snatched it away and said, "Let me see it."
After he finished speaking, he opened the lid of the bamboo tube and took a look. Seeing that it was filled with black water, he hesitated for a moment and poured a mouthful into his mouth.
Seeing this, Shen Ruolan, who was interrupted, wanted to stop him but it was too late. She looked at him helplessly and shook her head, "Cousin, this soy sauce is very salty."
Shen Hui, who had already drunk the soy sauce, couldn't close his mouth because it was so salty. He looked at Shen Ruolan with his mouth open, unable to swallow or spit it out, his face full of embarrassment.
Shen Qi rolled his eyes at his grandson and said to him unhappily, "That's all you can do all day."
Shen Hui cried out "vomit" after being scolded by his grandfather, and quickly got up and ran away.
Shen Qi sighed as he looked at his grandson's back, and said to his granddaughter, "Hey, Lan'er, it would be great if all your cousins were as worry-free as you.
