    A few days ago, Yu Feizhong was admitted to the Chinese Academy of Chinese Studies from elementary school.

    In order to reward his younger brother and make rational use of resources, Yu Feicheng sent him to patrol the capital every morning and evening to maintain law and order in the capital. This would not affect his schooling and would not waste his status as a county king.

    As for Chai Keji, he volunteered to be transferred from the idle department.

    Working in a fixed place, although you are free but unable to move, it is simply an embarrassment for a lively and active person like Chai Keji.

    "It's great to patrol the security of the capital. It's an important position and you can move back and forth."

    The most important thing is that from time to time, you can pass by the gate of Qingping County Prince's Mansion to satisfy Comrade Lao Chai's inner joy.

    At first, Yu Feique was a little shy and waited in the prince's mansion.

    As time went by and she figured out the patrol patterns of Chai Keji and Yu Feizhong, she became much bolder. Sometimes she took the initiative to go out and talk to them, and sometimes she even gave them some food made by Qiao Lianlian.

    ??????????????????????? Every time I go there, I don¡¯t have empty hands.

    Today, the lotus seed soup that Qiao Lianlian cooked looked good, and Yu Feique wanted to share it.

    She definitely doesn¡¯t want to see that silly big man anymore.

    Absolutely not!

    "But Qiao Lianlian is so shrewd, he can see through this child's little thoughts at a glance.

    With a smile on her lips, she did not expose the young girl, but slowly stirred the thick translucent soup, and said with a smile, "Okay, the weather is getting cold, give them more to warm their bodies, Magpie will feel sorry for you.  He¡¯s a younger brother.¡±

    Yu Feique nodded seriously, as if she really only made this trip because she felt sorry for her brother.

    Li Chunhua handed over the food box with a smile. Qiao passed it over and scooped out spoonful after spoonful of thick soup. The aroma of peanuts, melon seeds, sesame, hawthorn and beans in it reverberated in everyone's noses.

    Lotus seed porridge, also known as lotus seed soup, is not difficult to make, but the extraction of lotus root powder is a bit troublesome.

    Qiao Lianlian also wanted to eat lotus root starch a while ago, only to find that the Yu Dynasty did not have this thing.

    " But there are lotus roots. She will never give up if she wants to eat anything. She is not afraid of trouble, so she immediately went to Brother Liu to buy several hundred kilograms of lotus roots.

    The weather had already entered winter at that time, which was not the season for lotus roots to be on the market. Many shops only had scattered lotus root sections, and few had huge, fresh long lotus roots.

    Brother Liu has been in the Qingping County Prince's Mansion for a while and is very familiar with many vendors outside. He solved this seemingly difficult problem in less than half a day.

    Soon, hundreds of kilograms of lotus roots were transported to Lianxin Pavilion one after another.

    Second brother Liu smiled like a chrysanthemum and asked Qiao for credit again and again, "Well, sister Xiao Qiao, what I said is right, second brother, I still have some use."

    Qiao smiled and nodded, "Second brother is naturally powerful. I think you can take over the housekeeping affairs after the old housekeeper retires. It just so happens that Gou Wa's illness will not be cured in a short time."

    These words played into Brother Liu's heart. He nodded hastily, "Yes, of course it is appropriate."

    Although he is only a small housekeeper in the county prince's palace, he is still the second-ranking official in front of the prime minister's door, Liu Laoer.

    ¡°Without Qiao Lianlian¡¯s relationship, he would have been a small businessman all his life. He would not have been able to get in touch with the business circles of the capital, and it would have been impossible for him to be called brother-in-law and followed by many people as soon as he went out.

    "Then sister Xiao Qiao will be busy first. I will go do other things. If the lotus roots are not enough, I will find someone to buy them." Brother Liu was quick at work and smart as a person, so he left Lianxin Pavilion not long after.

    Qiao Lianlian began to instruct the little maid to wash the lotus root knots.

    Sometimes, having status means getting things done easily.

    For example, in Gujiacun before, if you wanted to eat, you had to do it yourself. The food for a family of seven often had to burden Qiao Lian to the point of soreness and backache, even with Yu Feique¡¯s help.

    "It's different now. There were two big maids, six little maids, and hundreds of kilograms of lotus roots in the yard. It only took half a day to clean them.

    Under the command of Qiao Lianlian, Brother Liu delivered a large stone mill and stone pound. After cleaning them, he began to make lotus root starch.

    ? Cut off the roots of the washed lotus root joints, then cut them into moderate pieces, throw them into a stone pound, and mash them into a sticky state. Add water and put them into a stone mill to grind out a thick slurry.

    This is the first step.

    Wrap the thick slurry in a cloth bag, place it in clean water and wash repeatedly until white slurry no longer comes out.

    This is the second step.

    The rinsed lotus root pulp remains stillWhen the starch water is separated, pour out the water, clean the lotus root residue and bottom sediment, and repeat it about two or three times to extract pure lotus root powder, which can be dried and stored in the sun.

    So far, the lotus root powder has been extracted, but the amount of it is only a few small bags, which has kept the maids of Lianxinyuan busy for half a month.

    After that, Chen Shen's sudden attack made Qiao forget about these bags of lotus root starch.

    A few days ago, for some unknown reason, Big Fatty screamed in the pond as if he was in heat. When Qiao scolded him repeatedly, he thought of these bags of lotus root starch.

    The glutton that had settled down was aroused again, and she immediately asked Li Chunhua to prepare cooked sesame seeds, chopped cooked peanuts, hawthorn grains, and several kinds of cooked beans.

    In Qiao Lianlian¡¯s memory, this kind of street snack usually appeared near schools. Students going to and from class would often hold a cup of lotus seed porridge in the cold winter and sip it while walking to class at different speeds.

    Add a small amount of water to dilute the dried and cracked lotus root powder into an opaque liquid, then rush it down with boiling water and stir it quickly for a few times. The liquid will gradually turn thick and transparent, and the resistance to stirring will gradually increase.

    At this time, add cooked sesame seeds, chopped cooked peanuts, hawthorn grains, japonica rice, pears, chopped red beans, and other favorite foods, mix in a spoonful of sugar, and stir together. Every sip will have a smooth texture. Chew it twice more.  It's a mouthful of sweetness that makes people linger and put it down.

    As soon as Qiao Lianlian finished it, he won unanimous praise from the children.

    Yu Feige even asked to eat a bowl of lotus seed porridge every day.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off out of laughter. Who would have thought that the food that children love to eat in the 21st century would still be loved by children in a different place and dynasty.

    Yu Feique was a thoughtful person. When he was satisfied with his meal, he did not forget to bring two bowls to his family.

    Qiao Lianlian agreed and filled two large bowls for her. He also had people pack them in insulated food boxes and carry them with her to the outer city.

    "Mom, I'll be back in a minute." The eldest daughter refused to let Qiao go out of the yard. "It's cold outside, so you'd better stay indoors."

    Qiao nodded slightly and was about to speak when suddenly a rapid squawk sounded.

    He is fat.

    This big fat goose, which only eats and drinks quietly every day, has been quacking for several days.

    Is there something dissatisfied about?

    Qiao Lianlian had a strange idea and took the people in the yard to the pond in Fuzhong. He happened to see the big fat man howling to the sky as if he was convulsed.
