Mr. Ming has long known that the rice paper Jiang Ning sells is made by herself. This is something he particularly admires about Jiang Ning. Now when he heard that Jiang Ning had come up with a new gadget, he immediately became interested.
When Yang Santie brought the tea-scented rice paper, a strong aroma of tea filled the room, and the three of them closed their eyes and took a deep breath.
“The fragrance of tea is really overflowing!” He Xiucai exclaimed, opened his eyes, looked at the rice paper carefully, and saw that there were some fragments of tea leaves on it, which were already integrated with the paper, elegant and novel.
Mr. Ming couldn’t put it down and immediately said, “Make a price, I’ll take it!”
Yang Santie was panicked, "Sir, this is my special honor to you! I don't dare to accept money! Besides, I don't know how to sell this paper!"
Mr. Ming immediately saw the little Jiujiu in Yang Santie's heart. He smiled helplessly, shook his head, and muttered: "One tael of tea leaves and one tael of gold. Use this paper to write, and at the same time taste the fragrance of the tea. In my opinion, , a roll of two taels of silver is also available.”
"Thank you for clarifying my doubts, sir!" Yang Santie immediately thanked him perversely and exited with a playful smile.
Hence, someone will come to buy something without him having to step forward.
Yang Sizhuang saw that Yang Santie seemed to be a different person after going out, so he couldn't help but ask: "Did the third brother miss anything when he went to Fucheng?"
Yang Santie raised his chin proudly, "Let's discuss it and we'll find out!"
Yang Sizhuang nodded excitedly.
The two of them went back and forth. Yang Sizhuang found that Yang Santie not only did not fall behind in his homework but also made some progress after going out. He couldn't help but feel envious, "Congratulations, third brother."
Yang Santie didn't take it seriously and gave him a hundred taels, "Third brother knows you are poor, so take the flowers!"
Yang Sizhuang opened his wallet and was shocked, "So much! Third brother, are you rich?"
Yang Santie did not hide anything from him and told everything that happened in Fucheng.
Yang Sizhuang was even more envious, "I will go to Fucheng after I pass the county examination!"
“Hahahaha. That’s what Grandpa Zhong told me too!” After Yang Santie finished speaking, he asked, “I haven’t seen my nephew yet! Come with me to Songxi Town another day.”
Before Yang Santie could find time to go to Songxi Town, the imperial edict arrived first.
Yang Santie and Yang Datou received the news in advance and rushed back to Rongshu Village with their families.
It was Dekang, a popular man beside the emperor, who announced the decree.
Even the prefect Ji Wuya came to Ping'an County, and Yang Erdan went with the Xu family.
A group of officials entered Rongshu Village in a mighty manner. The villagers were excited and in awe. They all stood at a distance and stared in this direction without blinking.
Dekang happily looked at the woman kneeling in front of him, with a look of wonder on his face, "By God, the emperor issued an edict: Mrs. Yang Jiang, the mother-in-law of Rongshu Village, Ping'an County, Quzhou Prefecture, is diligent in running the house, intelligent and virtuous, and she has contributed to the development of the country by planting white potato. , I will give you a thousand taels of gold, a palace in the capital, a hundred acres of fertile land, two shops, and the title of Guang Enbo, which is hereditary. I admire this!"
Jiang Ning forced himself to calm down and took the imperial edict respectfully, but his hands couldn't stop shaking, my God! She, a woman, was actually named Guang En Bo. Wasn't she dreaming?
Not to mention her, even the prefect Ji Wuya and the county magistrate Xie Yucheng were shocked by this title. This was the first person in the history of Quzhou Prefecture to be ennobled by the emperor! Still a woman! This, this, this is really amazing!
Dekang smiled and congratulated: "Uncle Guang En, congratulations!"
Jiang Ning came back to his senses, with a humble look on his face, "Thank you, Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy! This humble house is simple, please don't despise me, please come in!" Dekang chuckled, "This is not the first time that the Za family has come, Guang Enbo's courtyard is even the emperor's. We have all praised him, how could the Zajia dislike it?"
Ji Wuya heard that even the emperor had been to Rongshu Village, and he respected Jiang Ning even more.
Jiang Ning invited them into the house, Liu Ye and Xu Nuoyan served hot tea, and the Yang Datou brothers went to the kitchen to cook.
Everyone sat and talked, and the main topic they talked about was the wild yam, which was named after the emperor.
Dekang looked at Jiang Ning leisurely and said, "Uncle Guang En, the emperor asked the Zajia to ask you, apart from making Ruyi cakes and steaming them, what other foods can be made into this sweet potato?"
Jiang Ning is a chef, and this question really touched her heart. At that moment, she hurried to the warehouse and took out a lot of things, "Father-in-law, wait, I will make some dishes for you to try."
Looking at her mysterious look, even Ji Wuya was extremely curious.
The first dish is white potato with jam. Peel the white potato and steam it in a pot. After steaming, mash it into a puree. Add sugar and milk and mix well to make a hill shape. Then pour jam on top.
The second dish is steamed egg with white sweet potato meat. Chop the white sweet potato into puree, mix it with minced meat and shiitake mushroom foam, add seasonings and stir, crack an egg in the middle, steam it in a pot, and add a spoonful after it is steamed. Steam the broth for a while, and it will be a nutritious and delicious dish suitable for all ages.
The third course is sweet and sour white potato. Wash the white potato, blanch it in flour, fry it, fish it out, and then make a sweet and sour sauce. The resulting sweet and sour white potato is crispy and delicious.
The fourth course is white potato stew, the fifth course is stir-fried white potato with seasonal vegetables, and the sixth course is steamed rice with white potato and fragrant taro.
Dekang and Ji Wuya tasted all the dishes and praised them loudly. Ji Wuya even wrote a poem.
Dekang exclaimed: "These dishes each have their own merits. If you want to take a look at the jammy white potato and sweet and sour white potato, several empresses in the harem will like it. The emperor and the empress dowager like the steamed egg white potato stew with pureed white potato meat, and the stir-fried white potato with seasonal vegetables." , and steamed rice with sweet potato and sweet potato is most suitable for ordinary people.”
With white potato and sweet potato, the people only need a small amount of food a day to be full and eat well.
Ji Wuya and Xie Yucheng nodded in agreement.
Jiang Ning pondered: "I will go back and write down the detailed recipes of these dishes so that the royal chef in the palace will know them at a glance. In addition to these dishes, there are many home-cooked recipes for Baitiao. Although they are not considered delicacies, they are still good. Improve the people’s food.”
“Guang Enbo is so kind!” Dekang bowed solemnly.
Everyone had a feast of sweet potato and the exquisite delicacies prepared by Yang Datou, which was considered a worthwhile trip.
Before leaving, Jiang Ning presented tea-scented rice paper and flower-scented rice paper made by himself.
Dekang looked at it and exclaimed: "This must be the paper the princess brought back to the palace! I didn't expect it to be written by Uncle Guang En!"
“Is there any problem?” Yang Santie was a little nervous.
Dekang shook his head, "It's not that there's a problem, it's that the princess shows off these papers in the palace and has to take them with her wherever she goes. Several empresses in the harem come from scholarly families and are delighted when they see things. They keep making insinuations. The princess is doing this on purpose. Not to mention, several empresses even went to the emperor to beg for this.
The emperor doted on the princess, and when he saw that the princess was not willing to speak, he did not force it. Unexpectedly, the paper was actually made by Guang Enbo! "
When Jiang Ning heard this, he started to worry about it, and immediately went back to the house and took out a box, "This box is my special rosin rice paper. The method is very complicated. That's all. I originally wanted to keep it. Since the princess likes this kind of rice paper, Please ask my father-in-law to take this box to the capital for me. I only have some tea-scented rice paper and flower-scented rice paper left at home. Can I take it with you and let the emperor arrange it?"
