Chapter 474 Do Something Different
"Excellent, excellent. This design is truly ingenious!!"
Prefect Lin looked carefully at the flowerpot in front of him, his eyes full of amazement.
He had these flower pots made according to Shen Huazheng's requirements some time ago, and grooves were specially left on the pots.
At that time, Prefect Lin did not understand what these grooves were used for. Now that he saw the wheels installed underneath by the people from the Ministry of Works, he finally understood Shen Huazheng's original intention.
She wanted to install wheels made of iron and wood on the original large flower pot to make the flower pot stable and easy to push.
These ones
County Magistrate Li was also delighted: "This way, the fruits and vegetables planted in the flower pots can be moved at any time and can go wherever they want."
He even tried it out of the blue, just reaching out and pushing gently.
The flower pot will roll smoothly and pushing it is effortless.
Prefect Lin couldn't help but praise: "Lord Shen is so thoughtful. This time, we are not afraid even if we really encounter a storm. I also want to thank all the lords for being so attentive to these small details."
He knew that if it weren't for Lord Shen and other officials from the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Works who were striving for perfection, many things would never have appeared.
For example, there is the extremely shocking "sky garden" and the racks designed for growing vegetables in private fields.
Including these flower pots with wheels at the bottom.
As long as you observe carefully, you can see their intentions in these designs.
A group of Northwestern agricultural officials were also amazed at the flower pots. They were enlightened again today.
They have broadened their horizons so much during this period of time.
Shen Huazheng waved her hand and said, "Master Lin, you are too kind. This is just what we should do."
Although they had studied Ru'an's weather, after careful discussion, everyone agreed that the possibility of extreme weather here was relatively small.
But if we really encounter risks caused by force majeure, such as locust plagues, hail and other major natural disasters, we still need to have a backup plan.
Installing wheels under the flowerpot would provide a retreat for Yuzhang County.
If you really encounter those situations, at least you can move the vegetables to a safe place.
People from the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Works stood behind Shen Huazheng, with an expression as if saying, "We are as humble as Lord Shen."
In addition to the flower pots, Magistrate Lin also looked at the growth of potatoes and vegetables.
The potatoes are growing well. Not only are the roots and stems becoming thicker, but they are also producing small purple flowers.
The vegetables are also green and about to mature.
Prefect Lin and a group of northwestern officials all had smiles on their faces and were full of anticipation in their hearts.
Especially the agricultural officials, they come to check the growth of potatoes and vegetables almost every day, watching them grow little by little.
They all knew that a bumper vegetable harvest was in sight.
The baby potatoes will start to grow soon.
This spring is truly a spring full of hope.
From the time he entered the experimental field to the time he left, the smile on Prefect Lin's face never stopped.
Great, this place is really going to change!!
Perhaps during his term of office, we can really see a brand new Ru'an.
At noon, Shen Huazheng declined the kind invitation of Prefect Lin and Magistrate Li and did not have lunch with them.
Instead, he returned to the inn with Zhou Ying and Princess Lejia.
I don’t know if it’s Shen Huazheng’s personality problem or if all workers are like this.
Anyway, she didn't want to see her colleagues at all when she got off work.
I dislike those dinner parties and social gatherings even more.
Besides, Shen Huazheng had made an appointment with Zhou Ying and Princess Lejia yesterday to have the special Biluo here together for lunch today.
For her, eating delicious food with family and friends is the happiest thing in the world.
Princess Lejia pointed at the Biluo on the table and said, "Zhengzheng, Biluo has both mutton and pork. We bought both. This one is steamed, and this one is roasted. It depends on which one you want to eat."
There are several small shops specializing in selling Biluo in Yuzhang County. Princess Lejia and Zhou Ying found the one with the best reputation, and the Biluo on the table was bought from there.
Shen Huazheng: "Okay."
As she spoke, she picked up a piece of mutton biro with chopsticks and put it in the bowl.
This mutton biro is steamed and is a bit like a long roll with meat filling inside.
But the crust is much thinner than ordinary pancakes, and looks light pink and translucent.
The meat filling inside is faintly visible and seems to be about to come out.
Shen Huazheng brought the mutton biluo to her mouth with chopsticks and took a light bite.
The skin is soft, silky and full of elasticity.
The mutton filling inside has been marinated in advance, the meat is tender and has a light milky aroma.
As you chew it, the fresh aroma of the mutton mixed with the fragrance of the sauce quickly explodes between your lips and teeth.
With the soft and tender skin, it is really delicious.
Princess Lejia and Zhou Ying also ate the Biluo in their bowls with gusto and praised the taste highly.
After finishing the mutton biluo in the bowl, Shen Huazheng tried a roasted one.
Compared with steamed mutton biro, roasted mutton biro tastes more fragrant.
The soft and elastic skin has become tough after being roasted.
During the baking process, the fat of the mutton stuffing overflows. As you chew, the fresh aroma of the mutton, the aroma of fat and the complex aroma of the seasonings are intertwined and melt on the tip of your tongue little by little.
It lingers in the mouth like a wonderful melody.
Shen Huazheng was eating mutton biluo, in a good mood and narrowed her eyes slightly.
Really delicious.
It is worthy of being the store with the best reputation, and the products are good.
Although the meat-filled biro is very fragrant, you will feel a little sick of it if you eat too much.
The maid not only served them tea, but also brought them a plate of sliced oranges, which was perfect as after-meal fruit.
Shen Huazheng ate several pieces of mutton biluo and then started eating pork biluo.
He didn't stop until his stomach couldn't hold any more.
Shen Huazheng put down her chopsticks and started eating the orange again.
It is really comfortable to eat some fruits to relieve greasiness at this time.
At this time, Princess Lejia and Zhou Ying were also full.
Princess Lejia picked up an orange and muttered, "These oranges are quite sweet, but there are too many of them."
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but just as Magistrate Lin sent a basket of oranges to their yard, the Xie family also sent a basket right after.
Even County Magistrate Li sent some oranges, which made people wonder if they had made an appointment.
However, these oranges are really delicious.
Zhou Ying also felt that there seemed to be too many oranges in the inn, and the three of them were afraid that they would not be able to finish them all in a short time.
It would be bad if it got damaged.
Shen Huazheng suddenly said, "Why don't we use oranges to make some other food."
Thinking of the orange-flavored bream she made last time, Princess Lejia's eyes sparkled.
"Zheng Zheng, what do you want to eat?"
Does Zheng Zheng want to make fresh orange chicken, orange-flavored spare ribs, or orange crisps this time?
However, they had just eaten and were still a little full.
Should we wait until dinner to eat the orange chicken and orange-flavored spareribs?
Orange Cake sounds like the name of a snack, but it can be served as afternoon tea.
Princess Lejia was still daydreaming when Shen Huazheng's voice rang out again -
"Let's make a simple one first, orange jelly."
Although it was not quite what she thought, as a supporter, Princess Lejia immediately clapped her hands and cheered: "Yes, yes, I like eating jelly the most."
Jelly is also good for afternoon tea, especially jelly with fruit in it.
She likes peach jelly, melon jelly or orange jelly.
I like the ones made by Zheng Zheng even more.
Hehehehe~~~
Shen Huazheng: "However, I plan to do something different today."
Princess Lejia rolled her eyes. Aren’t all jellies like that?
How else could it be different?
Zhou Ying couldn't help but ask, "Zheng'er, what are you going to do?"
Shen Huazheng smiled and said, "When we made jelly in the past, we would embed the fruit pulp in the jelly, or decorate it around and on top of the jelly. This time, we put the jelly inside the orange."
Zhou Ying immediately reacted: "Zheng'er, you want to hollow out the flesh of the orange and then put the jelly inside?"
Princess Lejia also thought of the crab stuffed with orange that she had eaten at the beginning, and realized that Shen Huazheng wanted to use oranges as a container to hold the jelly.
"Zheng Zheng, do you want to make the jelly first and then put it in the orange?"
Shen Huazheng smiled and shook her head: "No, this time we are going to make jelly inside the orange."
Zhou Ying & Princess Le Jia: (⊙o⊙)
It sounds interesting.
Now that you have decided to make orange jelly, there is no need to waste time.
The three of them went to the kitchen and started to get busy.
Shen Huazheng asked someone to wash the oranges and then cut off the tops.
The next step is to dig out the orange pulp.
Princess Lejia volunteered: "Zhengzheng, let me do it."
Since orange peel is used as a container, the step of taking out the orange flesh must be very important.
She also wanted to be involved in important steps.
Shen Huazheng: "Okay, then let Aning do it. But you have to be careful. If you can't keep the peel intact and break the skin, it will be unusable."
Princess Lejia nodded: "I understand! I will be very careful."
As she spoke, Princess Lejia picked up a spoon and carefully scooped out the flesh.
She would always dig out the orange flesh completely, leaving the remaining orange peel to retain its unique beauty.
Seeing Princess Lejia's serious look, Shen Huazheng and Zhou Ying couldn't help but laugh.
It seems that Aning is really serious about this task.
Soon, Princess Lejia used a spoon to empty all the opened oranges.
The orange pulp was put into a porcelain bowl, and no juice was left.
Shen Huazheng asked someone to mash the fruit pulp into juice, then pour the juice and the remaining pulp into the pot, and then add an appropriate amount of water.
Princess Lejia: "Zhengzheng, are you going to cook the orange pulp?"
Shen Huazheng: "Yes, we need to add some more things."
As she spoke, she added more tea leaves into the pot.
Put the tea leaves in and boil them together, the jelly will be more fragrant.
