Chapter 29:
Tomato Scrambled Eggs
People in Shannong Bureau kept saying that only Fan State has it, but it turns out that they also have it in Xuanqing State.
After thinking for a moment, Murong Zhe said calmly: "This is edible, if you want to eat it, just eat it. You are weak and cannot lack vegetables."
After speaking, he looked at his son and said, "Come and help your sister do it."
Murong Kuan asked curiously: "Dad, have you ever eaten this?"
“Well, I used to eat it when the emperor... was there, they called it tomatoes.”

Murong Lingran nodded. Tomatoes do have a name, and her father is indeed well-informed. If he had continued to firmly oppose her eating it, she would have to waste more words.
Murong Kuan nodded, took the tomato and immediately frowned. He didn't know what to do.
"Third brother, I will do it myself." Murong Lingran saw the confusion of third brother.
Murong Kuan asked in confusion: "A’Ran, you have never eaten it before, how can you make it?"
“Third brother, I have watched our mother cooking for so many years, and she has taught a little bit about it, just by utilizing my ears and eyes.”
She has already experienced the food cooked by her third brother in the past few days. Either there is too much salt, it is mushy, or it is stewed, and she really doesn’t want to eat it anymore.
For the sake of my own stomach, I have to do it myself, she thought.
Murong Kuan glanced at his father in embarrassment, and when he nodded, he said, "Okay, then be careful and don't burn your hands."
"Okay, Third Brother." After saying this, Murong Lingran started tinkering in another pot.
The father and son didn't mind if she put more oil in cooking than usual. As long as she is happy, they can do whatever she wants, besides the family is not short of money now.
It didn’t take long for a fragrant plate of tomato scrambled eggs to be ready. The red color of tomatoes and the golden color of eggs were cleverly combined, and there was a hint of sweet and sour in the air. Just looking at it made people hungry.
Murong Kuan had never smelled this kind of smell before, and had never heard that eggs could be fried. It was really fragrant.
Murong Lingran handed a pair of chopsticks to her father and said with a proud smile: "Dad, try it and see if it tastes good."
In these special circumstances, it would be troublesome, so she would not put it on a plate.
In her previous life, her parents would teach her how to cook during winter and summer vacations. She was also interested in cooking, so often she searched for tutorials on the Internet. She was very confident in her cooking skills, not to mention a simple dish like tomato scrambled eggs. She knew it had style.
Murong Zhe was happy to see her proud expression, and the gloom in his heart immediately dissipated by a lot.

He picked up a chopstick and tasted it. His eyes suddenly lit up and he praised sincerely: "Well, it tastes good. It's very similar to what my dad used to make, but yours has a stronger taste and a better texture. It's sour and sweet. I didn’t expect that tomatoes stir-fried with eggs and oil would be so delicious.”
"I'll try it too." Murong Kuan also quickly moved his chopsticks, not caring about the hot temperature, and just stuffed it into his mouth, chewing, he closed his eyes for a moment, and nodded again and again, "Not bad, it's so delicious, A’Ran. Your craftsmanship is really good." After that, he started picking up more tomatoes and stuffing them in his mouth.
Seeing that they were eating happily, Murong Lingran smiled lightly. It was no wonder to her that the fruit grown in her space would be delicious.
Tomatoes are rich in nutrients, but some people naturally hate the smell of tomatoes. Fortunately, the two of them could tolerate it.
At this time, the rice was also ready. Murong Lingran gave each of the three a bowl and then started eating.
After a while, the father and son put down their bowls and chopsticks with satisfaction.
Although they all wanted to leave the eggs for Murong Lingran to eat, however Murong Lingran put in several scoops of egg into her bowl and was full before eating even a third of them. It would have been wasteful, so all of them ended up in her father’s and brother’s stomach.

Thank you for the translations. It seems like a slice of life with her farming space. I wonder why she came back to this time period? Is it that she owed her family a better life? Was there unfinished business? Will she find the person who framed her father?
ReplyDeleteThank you for reading! I really appreciate it!💜
DeleteI have not read to the end yet and those questions have me so excited to keep going!
It almost seems like her trip to the future was to help her deal with her life in this time period.
Can’t wait to see where it all ends up!
