When they returned, Mrs. Wu and Xiaxiang had already prepared a few dishes.
Zhou Ying made another six dishes. Braised silver carp, black fish with pickled vegetables, braised eel with green garlic sprouts, spiced eggplant bun, shredded sweet potato, and cold sweet potato leaves.
As for the staple food, it was steamed rice.
Once the dishes were out of the pot, Xiaxiang sniffed and said, “Mistress, these dishes really smell delicious. As expected of a restaurant owner.”
“Yeap, but you entered our residence too late. The dishes that Mistress cooks during the New Year are the truly delicious ones.
“The pig’s offal and intestines were so fragrant that people wanted to eat more after a bite.”
“But pig intestines are so dirty; can they be eaten?”
“Of course, it’s no worse than meat after it’s cleaned. I love them, especially the spicy ones. Just thinking about it makes me drool.”
“You gluttonous cat. If you want to eat, then learn to cook. I guarantee that you can eat whenever you want. Are the guys back yet?” Zhou Ying asked after teasing Shizhu.
“They’re back and already drinking tea in the room.”
“Let me know that it’s time to eat.” Zhou Ying loaded the plate as she said that.
Other than the braised carp, which she couldn’t split, she left a small portion of the rest for Shizhu and the other two women.
After the dishes were served, Chen He walked over and asked, “Madam, did we disturb you?”
“Don’t say that. Since you’re following Chengrui, shouldn’t we take care of you?” Zhou Ying asked as she handed the bowls and chopsticks to them.
“Yes, yes, hurry up and sit down. You’ve lost a lot of weight since you came over. Eat as much as you can today.” Gu Chengrui hurriedly invited them to sit down.
At the same time, he poured a glass of wine for each of them.
“We thank you two for your hospitality.” Head Fang smiled.
“Hurry up and start eating. Don’t blame us if you fall behind, and don’t eat your fill.” Zhou Ying urged them and picked up an eggplant bun for Gu Chengrui, which was difficult for him to reach.
She also picked up one for herself and started eating.
Seeing this, Chen He and the others naturally didn’t stand on ceremony and reached their chopsticks to the fish.
After the meal, Chen He and the others stayed behind to discuss farming ideas with Gu Chengrui. Gu Chengrui did not hide anything and told them the general direction of agricultural development.
“You mean we can breed new species through crossbreeding?” Chen He’s eyes lit up.
“Yes, the most common type is melons.
“One year, I planted a gourd and a loofah together and was surprised to see them strung together. The loofah produced was massively different from others and tasted extraordinarily bitter.
“Although it was a failed example, it also means crossbreeding might work as long as it’s similar plants.
“For example, wolves and dogs could also be crossbred. The puppies from such a lineage would usually be full of wolf characteristics, but if they were trained from a young age, it would be much easier to tame them than wild wolves.
“There are also donkeys and horses. Although the mules born this way are infertile, they still have their specialties, right?
“This is just a general direction. We can give it a try, and maybe we can cultivate something good.”
“Let’s try.” Chen He nodded thoughtfully.
He quickly asked, “Oh right, Lord Gu, can I have a few melon seedlings? I want to try crossbreeding them with the loofah seeds.”
“Sure, but you don’t necessarily have to plant all of them together. Melon flowers are divided into male and female flowers, so based on this, we can selectively choose a pair to crossbreed.
“Also, I think it’s best to find wild ones to crossbreed. This can improve the quality of melons..”
