The Space Doctor Became the Favorite of the Exiled Powerful Minister - #121 - Chapter 121: Cherish (1st update)

 In fact, Jiang Zhiluo didn’t know Cui Hejin’s taste, not even in her previous life.

In this life, when eating, she would carefully observe his subtle emotions so as to know whether he liked to eat or not.

However, Cui Hejin usually keeps his emotions introverted, always looking cold and indifferent.

 As if he doesn’t care about anything, with an out-of-this-world aura.

So every time she ate, Jiang Zhiluo couldn’t help but look at him and ask him if it tasted good.

 Every time he would say it was delicious.

 The reason why I found out later that he didn’t eat spicy food very much was from Mrs. Cui’s mouth.

Mrs. Cui was very moved when she heard Jiang Zhiluo’s words. She could see that Zhiluo was always thinking about Hejin.

“Zhiluo, you are so kind to Hejin, but we women should think more about ourselves and don’t be so careful with men.”

“He Jin should have taken more care of you.”

Even though she is the mother-in-law, the longer she stays with Zhiluo, the more she likes her.

 Looking at her unreserved dedication to this family, I can’t help but feel sorry for her.

Treating her as a daughter, I couldn’t help but say some heartfelt words.

Jiang Zhiluo took a moment to pick up the chili pepper.

 How is it?

 Her kindness to Cui Hejin was nothing at all.

 The kindness he treated her in the last life was truly good.

 “Mom, it’s nothing.”

“My husband also took good care of me during the days when I was not feeling well.”

She could feel that Cui Hejin seemed to have no experience in taking care of people in this life, but he still took care of her gently and carefully.

 He is learning little by little.

 If she got up in the middle of the night, even if she whispered, he would get up quickly and ask her if she was feeling well.

 She was careless at first and didn’t notice that the quilt was well covered when she woke up in the morning.

 Actually, she sleeps very poorly. Usually when she wakes up in the morning, the quilt is kicked aside.

One day when she was about to wake up in a daze, she found Cui Hejin covering her with a quilt.

 She then realized why she was well covered with quilt every night.

 He does a lot of things silently on weekdays, but he just doesn’t talk about it.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiluo couldn’t help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.

Mrs. Cui said without hesitation: “He should take care of you.”

Mrs. Cui is a woman, and if she considers things from a woman’s perspective, she will cherish Jiang Zhiluo even more.

Jiang Zhiluo smiled softly, as if she had thought of something, and said, “Mom, we have been busy doing business these days, and we haven’t even had time to make clothes with the cloth we bought.”

“After I make the chili con carne, I will measure it for you so I can make clothes for you.”

Mrs. Cui was very embarrassed, “I wish I could make clothes.”

Mrs. Cui is the legitimate daughter of the Yang family in Hongnong. She has been proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, and she has also learned music from Nühong.

However, she is really not good at sewing. She can do simple sewing, but she really can’t make clothes.

“It’s okay, Mom, if we open the market with chili con carne, we won’t have to set up a stall to make food every day.”

 “We can finish the work and find a salesman to deliver the goods.”

“Maybe we can sell it to merchant ships or merchants, so we don’t have to work hard to set up a stall.”

 “That way I’ll have time to do things at home.”

But in that case, you must first prepare wooden barrels and jars for the chili con carne sauce.

 These must be done first before talking about it.

Mrs. Cui felt that just listening to Zhiluo’s words made her feel that her days were full of progress and hope.

 She doesn’t think about things in the capital anymore. She just thinks about doing business to make money and eating delicious food every day.

 Since Zhiluo was born at home, she is in a good mood every day.

Just like this, Jiang Zhiluo was talking to Mrs. Cui while making chili meat sauce.

　　She put the dried chilies that had been sun-dried long ago into the pot and boiled them, then put them in the pot and added peppercorns, bay leaves and other things to stir-fry until fragrant.

 When there is no more water, take it out and grind it into powder.

  Then pour oil into the pot, add sugar, and stir-fry the minced meat…   Pour the oil that was fried before into the pot, then add the ground black bean powder and chili powder, stir-fry for a while and simmer over low heat…

 Add peanuts and sesame salt…

 Step by step is the best.

 The kitchen house has long been exuding a strong fragrance.

Mrs. Cui felt like she was drooling.

 “This is too fragrant.”

 Obviously I was very full at noon, but it wasn’t even time for dinner yet.

 She felt hungry because of the smell.

 At this moment, I couldn’t help but want to eat something.

Jiang Zhiluo also thinks the taste is very fragrant, “It feels very good, I will try it with the steamed buns soon.”

“Zhiluo, you made the dough in the morning and made the steamed buns at noon, just to eat the steamed buns.”

　　It was already past noon when they returned from closing the stall.

 But Zhiluo didn’t care about eating. She took a few bites and started making steamed buns.

 Because the meeting just happened to happen.

 Making white flour steamed buns.

 Since setting up a stall selling pot helmets, the business has been getting better every day. With the braised pig meat, I can earn about three taels of silver a day.

 So they are now willing to make thin white flour steamed buns.

Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said: “Well, it will be more delicious if you just eat the chili meat sauce with the steamed buns.”

“Especially if you put a little on the steamed buns, it will go well with rice.”

“I made noodles later and can eat them with chili meat sauce.”

Mrs. Cui always eats noodles with soup, but she has never eaten mixed noodles.

She imagined what noodles would look like, but she didn’t know what they would taste like.

Jiang Zhiluo took out the prepared chili meat sauce and put it in a basin. Two large basins were filled.

 “So many!”

Jiang Zhiluo nodded and explained: “Chili meat sauce is easy to store, it can be stored for at least a month.”

 “It’s different from Leek Box, Guokui and Luwei.”

“You don’t have to sell it in one or two days. After you find wooden jars to put it in these two days, you can take it out and sell it.”

“You can also sell some in bulk first to let everyone know how the chili con carne tastes.”

Jiang Zhiluo thought she could set up a stall at the pier.

 People who run boats are always on the water.

 Sometimes I stay on the ship for half a month or more.

 There is nothing good to eat on the ship, mostly dry food.

Everyone was in a hurry to get out of the boat and didn’t bother to eat, but it would be nice to have chili con carne.

 There are also some small boats. When hauling goods, they row every day and there is no time to cook.

 Sometimes it’s hard to swallow when you bring dry food, but it’s different when you have something to eat.

 And when the weather is cold, eating something spicy will warm up your body immediately.

And pepper can also drive away the cold.

Mrs. Cui said: “It would be much more convenient if we didn’t have to set up a stall and could spend most of our time at home. Our farming and work would not be affected.”

 If possible, Mrs. Cui would still like to stay in the village.

Going out to interact with people may seem easy, but it’s actually not easy either.

Some customers are rude and can even bargain for a penny for a long time, which can wear out their words.

Zhiluo also has a good temper. She can smile and explain patiently to anyone without getting angry.

However, most people are very nice. When they buy something, they just buy something. If they eat well, they will come back to buy something again often.

“Don’t worry, mother. When the business gets bigger in the future, we will have customers coming to buy things, and we won’t need to set up a stall.”

Just as they were talking, a voice came from outside the door, “Is this the Cui family here?” (End of Chapter)
