Chapter 318 Sorrel
Chapter 318 Sorrel
"Alright, alright, hurry up and sit down and eat slowly. The portions we cooked today are quite large. If you don't have enough, go to the kitchen and get more. Eat more vegetables and less steamed buns. We will have mutton soup and grilled lamb chops later, so save some space."
Old Mrs. Zhou gave up her seat and let the boys in the family sit at the table.
The women sat at another table, and the food on the table was the same.
This table is full of delicious dishes, and every dish is delicious.
Even though their family opened a restaurant, they hadn't had such a sumptuous meal in a long time.
It’s just like Chinese New Year…
"Eat it quickly, eat it quickly. All dishes taste best when they are freshly cooked. They will lose their flavor when they get cold."
Zhou Mingshu and others picked up chopsticks and started eating happily.
The taste of this goat is slightly different from that of domestic sheep.
Goat meat tastes better, has less mutton smell, and is more tender.
After tasting the dishes on the table, Zhou Mingshu's favorites were the braised lamb and stir-fried lamb with green onions.
The braised lamb is made from top-quality lamb ribs, the ribs fall off the bones with a slight squeeze.
The meat has a smooth and tender texture, bringing the ultimate enjoyment to the cavity.
The stir-fried lamb with green onions is also good. It is topped with some cumin and chili powder, as well as lots of green onions. The taste is slightly spicy and numbing, and you will remember it after one bite.
She ate a lot of other dishes, so I won’t go into details.
This meal is for nourishing her body and also to thank Lord Qi, so she has to eat more to live up to Lord Qi's kindness.
Zhou Mingshu only ate half a steamed bun for this meal, leaving all the space in his stomach for the delicacies on the table.
When the aroma came out of the hanging stove, she controlled her eating process in time.
The grilled lamb chops are the highlight, so you have to eat more of them.
Zhou Lao Er and Zhou Lao San worked together to hook up the lamb chops.
The whole lamb chop was roasted red, and the cracks on it made it look even more hideous.
Hu Zi couldn't stand the smell.
The bone that was loosened from its mouth kept pulling at Boss Zhou's trouser legs, wagging its tail happily, begging for a piece of good meat.
The lamb chops were placed on the table to cool down and are still too hot to eat.
Qi Rui was already about 70% full and wanted to drink another bowl of mutton soup, but he gave up.
But the lamb chops were so well-grilled that he had to have another bite.
Rufeng, who was standing aside, had oil all over the corners of his mouth. The food was much more delicious than what he had eaten in the camp.
It doesn’t strain your teeth, doesn’t make your face tired, and smells amazing!!
Seeing Rufeng's continued interest, Qi Rui smiled.
"What are you waiting for? Go cut the meat."
After receiving the order, Rufeng took out a small knife from his waist and cut the lamb chops one by one, slicing off the meat.
Only when he got closer did he realize how well the lamb chops were grilled.
Being smooth and shiny is secondary, the most important thing is that the juice inside is still there.
He lightly cut the meat and the juice flowed out, indicating that the meat was roasted very tender.
After cutting several plates in a row, he put away the knife and placed the meat plate on the table.
The barbecue dipping sauce was prepared early in the morning. It contained a lot of crushed peanuts and sesame seeds and was very fragrant.
Qi Rui took a bite and it was simply... so delicious.
This is the realm he wants to achieve!
The meat is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with great appearance and wonderful taste. It is so delicious that you will scream with pleasure when dipped in some condiments.
If this kind of mutton was brought to the military defense camp, it could be divided up in a moment.
The best goats deserve such top-notch craftsmanship.
Wang Fugui on the side was also stunned.
Damn! I wouldn't trade this meat for anything! He almost cried from eating it, he missed his mother...
How could he be so worthy as to be able to eat this mutton that melts in his mouth?
If his wife's cooking skills could be even 10% of what the Zhou family has, then that's enough! He would die without regrets.
After eating half a lamb chop, no one could eat any more.
Everyone couldn't help but loosen their belts, and even Qi Rui stood up.
Mrs. Zhou was polite and pulled him to eat more, but he really couldn't eat any more.
I could only use the excuse of walking around the flower garden to help digest the food.
"Okay, the flowers in the flowerbed are in full bloom. I'll let San Ya take you to see them."
Old Mrs. Zhou turned around and called Zhou Mingshu out.
When adults want to go to the flower garden, it is most appropriate to let her go with them. She knows all the flowers, their names and habits very well.
They went out for a walk and they just cleaned the table at home.
Fortunately, the road in the flower garden had been built early. Zhou Mingshu walked in front, and Qi Rui and Rufeng followed behind.
Zhou Mingshu talked about the flowers and plants on both sides of the road, their functions, when they bloomed, and what she planned to do. She explained it very clearly.
Qi Rui listened carefully, but he couldn't remember so many varieties.
"Ms. Zhou, you've said so much but haven't mentioned the flowers in front of the fence. I wonder what this little flower is called. It blooms so brightly and passionately that you can't even see a leaf. Its vitality is so tenacious that it makes my heart surge."
"Sir, you should call me Mingshu like Lord Xue and Magistrate Niu. 'Miss Zhou' sounds too awkward to me... Is that okay?"
Every time Zhou Mingshu heard the name "Miss Zhou", he got goose bumps. It was so uncomfortable to hear.
"Oh, okay, then let's call him Mingshu."
Qi Rui smiled awkwardly, but calling him "Ming Shu" made it seem more intimate.
"The flower in front of the fence is 'Sorrel'. It is in its flowering period now. As long as you take good care of it and understand its habits, it will bloom easily. This flower loves the sun. The brighter the sun, the brighter it blooms. If you like it, you can transplant some back home."
"No, no, they are growing well here. How can I remove them from the land that nourishes them just because I like them for a moment? Besides, I don't know how to take care of them. It would be a pity if I can't take good care of them."
Zhou Mingshu nodded. What the Seventh Master said made sense. If the plant was transplanted to him, he might kill it.
"But life in the military camp is boring. It would be very interesting to have beautiful flowers in the tent. Mingshu, if you have a flower species that is more durable, please recommend it to me. In order to prevent me from killing it, the flower needs to be more durable."
After hearing Qi Rui's words, Zhou Mingshu laughed.
"Okay, sir. Ming Shuding will think about it carefully and will not let the potted plant perish in your hands."
The three of them strolled around the flower garden, chatting and laughing happily, and had long forgotten the bloating and pain in their stomachs.
Qi Xu stood at the gate of the yard looking at the three figures in the flower garden, feeling more and more harmonious, but his mouth was pouting so much that an oil bottle could almost be hung on it.
Shen Yang looked at the mint in front of the young master. The mint leaves were pulled all over the ground. If they continued to pull like this, it would be bald...
"Young Master, you must be full, why don't we go for a walk by the river? See if there are any snails and pick them up together later?"
Shen Yang boldly proposed.
