Chapter 139: Afternoon, Free~(2/2)

Si Ningning's words "What's wrong with this?" stuck in her throat, and a look of embarrassment flashed across her pretty face that was flushed with heat. She hurriedly went into the room and put down the teapot, took out two small horses and placed them at the door, and sat down with Chen Lianmi. .

The innermost kitchen does not have a back door, but the windows are wide open. The bamboo forest behind the house is rustling, and the breeze passes through the room. It is cool and comfortable, not to mention how comfortable it is.

The Chen Lian rice basket contains five sections of lotus root and some tomatoes of different sizes, all of which have been washed.

Si Ningning never understood before. Sometimes when reading books or novels, people always compared the arms of children and babies to lotus roots. But now that she saw the lotus roots in the basket, she understood.

The lotus roots in this season have not yet condensed into lotus root powder. They are very different from the lotus roots in late autumn and winter. They are plump, white and tender. Just looking at them makes you feel happy.

This is just a lotus root. If it were really a child's arm, white, pink and fleshy, wouldn't it be more flattering?

Si Ningning thought about it, and felt more and more that this description was very appropriate.

Seeing her staring at the lotus root, Chen Lianmi lowered her head and glanced twice, then picked out one and handed it to Si Ningning, "Try it."

"Ah? Auntie, this..."

"The lotus roots in this season are delicious when eaten raw. Keep the ones in the basket for cooking at night. This is specially given to you by my aunt." Chen Lianmi smiled kindly, pinched the lotus roots and passed them forward.

Si Ningning was a little embarrassed, but she still took it.

After hearing that Chen Lianmi said it could be eaten raw, Si Ningning didn't peel it, so she took a small tentative bite at the edge. A small "click" was heard, and a sweet taste hit her mouth.

Si Ningning's eyes suddenly lit up, "It's crunchy and sweet, not like lotus root, but like eating fruit!"

As he said that, he took another bite, this one was much bigger than the last one.

"Young lotus roots are best eaten raw, and old lotus roots are best stewed in soup." Chen Lianmi happily sat aside to enjoy the cool air, "Is there anything like this in the city?"

Si Ningning thought for a while and said: "There are lotus root sellers in the New Year market. They don't charge for tickets, but the quality is not very good."

"The lotus roots in winter have lotus root powder. You can make soup, but they taste bad when eaten raw." Chen Lianmi said, and then added: "You can't wash the mud on the lotus roots in winter. If you wash them, they will rot... On the market The lotus roots won’t work if they’re not washed, and the mud will have to be weighed.”

"That's the truth."

The bamboo forest swayed back and forth, and in front of the Uwa red brick wooden door, a middle-aged woman and a charming girl sat on the left and right.
