Chapter 111 Potatoes only bloom but don’t bear fruit?
Xiao Jingxuan also brought other vegetables to Princess Xian. He picked some of the vegetables that Ye Tang had grown himself.
Princess Xian likes tomatoes very much. Not only can they be used in cooking, but they can also be eaten as fruits.
"I'm going to stay at my sister-in-law's for a few days." Princess Xian suddenly had the urge to go and see what Ye Tang had planted. "I didn't look closely last time, so I want to take a closer look this time, and by the way, discuss a big deal with my sister-in-law."
It would be perfect to rush rare items like tomatoes, prickly cucumbers, and peppers to the capital and sell them at high prices.
Princess Xian said to Tao Quan: "My sister-in-law is the lucky star of our family!"
The silly Xiao Jingxuan just found some random things in the mountains, but his brother and sister-in-law actually grew them all.
She is not only a lucky star, but also the reincarnation of Shennong.
As soon as Xiao Jingxuan fled back home, Qin Jinhua and Tao Quan rushed to his house right after him.
Xiao Jingxuan was so scared that he quickly closed the door.
"You little brat, where are you going to run?" Tao Quan flew in directly.
After landing, Tao Quan opened the door first and then went to chase Xiao Jingxuan.
Ye Tang came out of the house and saw Qin Jinhua walking into the door. He instantly smiled like a flower and greeted her warmly.
"Sister, you're here. Come in quickly. I'm making dinner. You come at the right time." Ye Tang wiped his hands on his apron.
"Don't you have servants? Why do you cook by yourself? There is so much smoke!" Qin Jinhua was followed by a head maid Chunxi, and two second-class maids Xia Zhu and Xia Ju.
Ye Tang smiled and said, "I like to enjoy life. The food I make myself tastes better."
Ye Tang and Qin Jinhua walked into the house talking and laughing. As soon as they entered, Qin Jinhua felt that the room was slightly cool.
Qin Jinhua looked in the direction where the cool breeze came from and saw a small basin of ice.
"You actually have ice here?" Qin Jinhua was extremely surprised: "I have been looking for ice for a long time but couldn't find it. Where did you find it?"
Wutong County looks big, but it is actually very poor. In the capital city there are many ice vendors in the summer, but there is not a single ice vendor in Wutong County. She feels so hot every day as if she is in a furnace, which is very annoying.
I didn’t expect to see ice here in Ye Tang.
Ye Tang smiled and said, "I made this myself."
Qin Jinhua couldn't believe it: "You can make ice?"
Ye Tang nodded: "Well, sister came here today, she must have something to talk to me about. Sister, don't worry, let me go to cook first, and we can talk slowly after we are full and satisfied."
Seeing Xiao Jingxuan and the other man still chasing each other outside, Ye Tang flew towards the vegetable garden and roared: "Xiao Jingxuan, if you dare to leave a footprint in the vegetable garden or destroy a leaf, I will peel off your skin!"
Jamel Xiao spun in mid-air, turned a corner and landed on the wall: “Brother, I was wrong, I won’t fight anymore.”
Tao Quan sneered: "Lie down on the ground and let me kick you a few times."
Ye Tang was too lazy to pay attention to these two childish guys and went into the kitchen.
Qin Jinhua circled around the ice cube: "How amazing! How did they do this? Eh? There seems to be something in this ice cube."
The more she looked at the ice, the cooler it felt. She couldn't help but move closer and closer, and opened her little mouth.
Ye Tang came out in time to stop him: "Sister, you can't eat this ice cube, it's poisonous."
Qin Jinhua immediately shut her mouth and took two steps back.
After Ye Tang gave the reminder, he returned to the kitchen.
Qin Jinhua wanted to go in and take a look, but was choked by the spicy smell and started coughing.
Chun Xi hurriedly helped her out of the kitchen: "Madam Wang..., your body is delicate, you'd better not go in."
"What on earth is my sister-in-law doing? Why is she so choking?"
Chun Xi and the other maids shook their heads: "We have never seen this before."
This Mrs. Xiao was very strange, and there were many things in her house that they had never seen before.
Ye Tang concentrated on cooking and did not ask for help, for fear that they would cause trouble.
When she finished preparing three dishes and a soup and came out to ask Xiao Jingxuan to serve the dishes, she saw Xiao Jingxuan, Tao Quan, and Qin Jinhua gathered around the ice basin, six eyes staring at it.
"It's really strange, how did this come about?"
"Jingxuan, you have such good things at home, but you didn't send some to me."
“Today is also the first time I’ve seen ice at home.”
Ye Tang interrupted their discussion: "The food is ready, you can serve it to the table."
Chun Xi and the other two came over immediately: "Madam Xiao, just leave the serving of the dishes to us servants. You have been busy for so long and must be tired. Go and have a rest first!"
The three of them entered the kitchen. There was a very pungent smell in the kitchen and it took them a long time to get used to it.
Looking at the three dishes and one soup on the stove, the three people's eyes lit up and they hurriedly walked out with the dishes.
The meal was served and Hong Longfei also came back from outside. He wandered around Ziyan Mountain, built ridges on the newly reclaimed land, and caught two wild rabbits.
Seeing Tao Quan and the other two were also there, Hong Longfei was surprised: "Why are you here too?"
He knew that Tao Quan was the Prince of Leisure, but so what? He was a free-spirited person who was not afraid of power. In addition, due to Xiao Jingxuan's relationship, he was quite familiar with Tao Quan. It was impossible for him to be afraid of Tao Quan, and it was also impossible for him to perform a salute.
Tao Quan didn't care about Hong Longfei's attitude at all. He was very respectful to Hong Longfei: "I'm here to eat and drink for free."
Qin Jinhua added: "For ice."
Hong Longfei was puzzled: "What ice?"
As he finished speaking, he noticed that there was a small bowl of ice on the small table to the right behind the dining table.
His eyes widened immediately: "Where did this thing come from?"
"Let's eat first." Ye Tang invited them to sit down.
Hong Longfei wanted to ask more questions, but suddenly he saw the spicy sturgeon with green peppers on the table. His eyes instantly burst into golden light like the sun, and he sat down in the best seat in a flash.
"Don't talk while eating or sleep. Eat, eat, eat." He warmly greeted Tao Quan and the others, "Hurry up and eat. Don't be polite. Just treat it as your own home."
Ye Tang shook his head with amusement.
Tao Quan was a little scared when he saw the green pepper fish. Xiao Jingxuan had made him feel disgusted with peppers.
But seeing Ye Tang and the others eating with such relish, Tao Quan couldn't help himself and picked up a piece of fish to taste.
"It's so spicy, numb and fragrant." Tao Quan was surprised.
Qin Jinhua also thought the taste of green pepper fish was very tempting.
This was a taste she had never experienced before.
The combination of chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns can create such a spicy and fragrant flavor.
"It's delicious! So tasty!" Qin Jinhua concentrated on eating the fish.
Ye Tang picked up a piece of iced sugar-coated tomato and gave it to her: "Try this, I put it in the well and chilled it, it has the right amount of sweet and sour, it's appetizing and not greasy."
Qin Jinhua took a bite and exclaimed: "It's delicious. I like tomatoes."
“I like cucumber salad, too.”
“And what kind of dish is this?”
"Sweet potato tips." Ye Tang said with a smile.
Jamel Xiao paused: "Didn't you say this is not mature yet?"
Ye Tang said: "The fruit cannot be eaten yet, but the tender tips can be used for cooking."
Jamel Xiao: "...Fruit?"
He did not see any fruit on the vines, and the potatoes also only bloomed but did not bear fruit.
