Chapter 1315 Pumpkin Pie
The next morning, Li Zhi took a few buns and went out.
Xu Hui cleaned the yard and watched Li Zhi walk out of the house and said, "Will your Highness King Jin go to the academy today?"
According to the current academic knowledge of academy, Li Zhi should not be able to satisfy him.
The knowledge of Jingyang Academy is still at the level of primary and secondary schools.
Li Zhi was already past primary and secondary schools at a long time.
Li Lizhi walked out of the bedroom with Xiao Yizi and said, "I ate all the pumpkins last night, but now I feel the smell of pumpkins when I slap my mouth."
Little Shizi washed well and looked at the pumpkins piled up in the yard like hills and said, "I won't eat pumpkins tonight."
Li Zheng ate a bowl of porridge and said, "It's made into a pumpkin pie and sold it."
Little Shizi whispered, "Pumpkin Pie?"
Li Zheng said: "It should be quite delicious."
Little Shizi pouted and said, "I won't eat it."
Li Zheng sighed and said, "You can't put pumpkins on it, they will break if they are stored for a long time."
After finishing the horse circle, Li Zheng shook his fan and sat under the tree.
Li Tai wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I have been hungry for more than half a year. Do you think I have lost weight now?"
Li Zheng glanced at him with disgust.
Li Taiyou looked at his figure and said, "What are you doing when you look at me like this?"
Li Zheng snorted coldly, "I'm not thin at all, I'm still so fat."
Li Tai thought for a while and said, "It's not right. I clearly feel that I've been much lighter."
Shaking the fan in his hand, Li Zheng said: "You can eat as much work as you do every day. Every day, you do the work in the horse clan and go back to the academy to eat and tax. Do you think you can lose weight?"
Li Tai thought about it carefully and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
Li Zheng continued, "There is a big job to do today, so you can rest."
After looking at the direction of the academy, Li Tai said, "I still have to go to the academy."
Li Zheng said, "It's okay for you to go to the academy, why not help me make pumpkin pie."
“Pumpkin pie?”
"It's just a kind of pumpkin cake. There are too many pumpkins at home and I can't finish it. You can't just eat pumpkins all the time. It's a waste of money to make pumpkin cakes. It's beneficial to preserve them."
After a moment of rest.
Li Zheng took Li Tai to set up a big pot.
The pot is very large and is used to steam pumpkin.
To make a pumpkin pie, you must first cook the pumpkin.
Dahu pulled a ox cart and said, "The pumpkins are all here."
Li Tai looked at the truck of pumpkins, which were not small in size.
Each one is as big as a millstone.
Li Zheng took a pumpkin and handed it to Li Tai and said, "Wash it, peel it, and cut it into pieces."
Li Tai held the pumpkin in his hand blankly, and then watched the pumpkins piled up like hills on the ox cart.
The mechanically moved turned his head and looked at Li Zheng. Li Tai continued, "So many pumpkins are about to be cut?"
Li Zheng struggled to set up a big pot and said, "What if it is?"
Do you keep these pumpkins rotting here?"
Seeing Li Tai’s appearance that he didn’t want to work, Li Zheng continued, “After making the pumpkin cake, I will give you the drawings for the expansion of the academy in the next stage.”
When Li Tai heard about the academy, he became interested and said, "Is the academy going to be expanded again?"
Li Zheng thoughtfully and said: "The village has also counted that there will be about 500 children who are going to enter and go to school in the next batch."
Li Tai thought about it and said, "Chu Suiliang and the others have also calculated it. It is indeed a bit tight to accommodate so many students in the current academy area."
Li Zheng set up a big pot and said to Dahu: "Go to the village and call someone to help."
Dahu packed up the ox cart and said, "Okay, I'll return the ox cart back."
The water in the pot was boiled for a long time before it boiled.
After setting up the steamer, put the pumpkin in it.
After less than half an hour of steaming, the sweet fragrance of the pumpkin spread.
The big dog turned his head and sat next to the horse ring, as if he was disgusted in his eyes.
Li Zheng was a little tired of smelling the pumpkin. Last night's supper was a table of pumpkins.
Now I burp my body and smell of pumpkin.
Take a sip of tea to clear the smell in your mouth.
Sun Simiao, whose hair and beard were all white, came in a Taoist robe.
It was very hot next to the steamer. Li Zheng wiped his sweat and said, "Doctor Sun, why are you here?"
Sun Simiao said, "I want pumpkins to be used as medicine. A child in a nearby village got sick."
Judging from Sun Simiao's expression, he must have confiscated the money again.
However, Sun Simiao's clinic really doesn't cost much money.
Sun Simiao wandered around the Central Plains all year round, and he had no idea of collecting money by curing diseases and saving people.
It may not be appropriate to ask Sun Simiao to take money for treatment.
Li Zheng pointed to the pumpkin on the ox cart and said, "Doctor Sun takes it himself."
Seeing Sun Simiao carrying a whole pumpkin to leave, Li Tai said curiously: "Doctor Sun, you need so much to use this pumpkin as medicine?"
Sun Simiao smiled and said, "There are so many things to cook. This is a good thing that is suitable for vegetables and grains. I also want to eat fried pumpkin. I don't have good teeth on weekdays, so it's very comfortable to eat this pumpkin."
After walking two steps, Sun Simiao turned around and said to Li Tai: "Your Highness, King of Wei, don't be too obese. I have seen many obese people with all kinds of problems in their later years."
Li Tai scratched his ear and said, "Why does this sound so strange?"
Li Zheng said: "Doctor Sun is actually right. Obesity itself is a disease."
The pot was burning on the fire, and Li Tai was covered in sweat. The sweat not only soaked his clothes, but his fat face was covered in sweat.
He handed Li Tai a bowl of water, and Li Zheng said, "Drink a bowl of water, I'm really worried that you will be dehydrated."
Li Tai waved his hand and said, "I'm not thirsty, I must lose weight this time."
Li Zheng put the water aside, "If you are thirsty, you must drink water."
Li Tai nodded vigorously.
Li Zheng said: "Actually, this is good. Sweating more sweat can also have the effect of wetness."
The pumpkin has been steamed, and Li Zheng called Li Yifu again and said, "You should go to the village to get some flour, which is the kind that my aunts make cakes on weekdays."
When Li Yifu received the words, he went to do things quickly.
In the afternoon, the aunt in the village also came with flour.
There were many people standing next to the horse circle. The method of making pumpkin cakes is very simple. Aunts who have accumulated cooking skills can do it at a glance.
Li Tai held a stick and mashed the steamed pumpkin into pumpkin puree.
The horse circle was filled with laughter from my aunts.
Li Zheng could say a few words from time to time, and his aunts laughed louder.
Li Tai felt a little warm when he saw this scene. Maybe this is the fireworks on earth.
There are not so many scheming, nor so many intrigues.
Li was asking someone to help his aunts come with flour and the others.
Without saying a word, I came up to help.
Looking at the smiles on everyone's faces, Li Tai felt in his heart that perhaps his father should also look at this happy scene so that he could understand how beautiful the days of the most ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty were.
