Sixty years old with the army, the heirless boss loves his fertile wife

Chapter 72 Chili Shrimp Paste
When making hot sauce, chili peppers are indispensable. Tang Qiyue originally wanted to use the dried chili peppers she brought with her, but when she was browsing the system, she found that there were mutated vegetables from the end of the world.

She remembered that at the end of the world, mutated vegetables all contained radiation and were differentiated according to their radiation values. Those with high radiation levels were simply inedible.

But out of curiosity, Tang Qiuyue exchanged for a mutant pepper.

It’s no wonder that she only changed one. The mutant peppers were really too big. One was big enough to be half her size.

Fortunately, the system has a built-in scanning function, which can check the radiation value.

The result was beyond Tang Qiyue's expectations. The radiation value of the mutated peppers traded through the system was actually zero. In other words, she didn't have to worry about the radiation from the mutated vegetables. She could even use the special properties of the mutated food to reduce the amount of food she bought.

Whenever she thought of this possibility, Tang Qiyue wanted to scream with excitement.

You have to know that the supplies today are no different from those in the end of the world. They are all very scarce, and there are too few edible things.

It was confirmed that the mutated peppers had no radiation, and because of the mutation, the peppers became spicier and their skin thicker.

Regardless of whether the radiation is due to cross-time and space transactions, without the concern about the radiation value, Tang Qiyue thinks it is still worth a try.

She used a kitchen knife to cut open the half-person-high pepper on the chopping board. It was a red, thick-skinned pepper with full seeds. Tang Qiyue did not waste it and collected them all, preparing to try planting them.

Peeling off the skin reveals the brightly colored thick skin of the peppers, but fortunately there isn’t much fiber inside, and because of the mutation, the peppers are very crisp.

To be cautious, Tang Qiyue cut a small piece and tasted it. If it had not mutated, the spiciness of this pepper would be very low, and it could even be eaten directly as a refreshing side dish. Although it has mutated now and the spiciness has increased, it is still within the range that Tang Qiyue can tolerate.

She excitedly cut all the peppers into thin strips. Looking at the big bucket of peppers, Tang Qiyue finally calmed down.

This is a bit too much.

Fortunately, she still had a small space capsule where she could stay first.

Get out twice as many chili shreds as shrimps and chop them into small pieces, then light the fire and heat the oil.

The oil is soybean oil, which Tang Qiuyue also exchanged from the system. Because the radiation value is not taken into account, the points required are very low. Tang Qiuyue only used two sea cucumbers to get enough points.

Sure enough, the soybean oil squeezed from the mutated soybeans is also free of radiation. Also, because of the mutation, the bean smell of the soybeans disappears, leaving only an amber color.

This saved Tang Qiyue the trouble of explaining the source of the oil, as she just said it was all her dowry. She brought twelve boxes of dowry anyway, and so many people were watching.

When the oil was hot, Tang Qiuyue poured the chili peppers in. The hot oil instantly brought out the flavor of the chili peppers.

The spicy smell instantly filled the entire kitchen. Fortunately, Tang Qiyue was prepared and wore a mask. Even so, the spicy smell was still a bit choking.

Fortunately, as the food was stir-fried, Tang Qiyue slowly got used to the spiciness. Because the value of her mutated food was very low, Tang Qiyue exchanged for a lot of seasonings, such as fist-sized Sichuan peppercorns, which she crushed and threw in, and egg-sized black peppercorns, which she crushed and threw in.

Tang Qiyue crushed several spices and threw them into the pot. The mixed aroma could not be covered up at last and flew out of the kitchen.

Tang Qiyue regretted not buying a set of portable kitchenware, which would have a range hood that could compress all odors into a smell ball that could be thrown on the ground and slowly dissipated.

But thinking that these things were not that rare, I didn't worry too much.

When the chili is almost cooked, throw in the cleaned shrimps, followed by sugar and salt in proportion.

Fresh, fragrant, spicy

All the flavors are fully stimulated by the addition of salt.

Tang Qiyue was swallowing madly when she smelled it.

After she had finally cooked it, she was ready to find a bamboo tube to put the hot sauce in so that she could send it to Tang Xiuyuan and the others. But when she turned around, she saw several heads lying at the kitchen door. "Auntie Tang, it smells so good!"

"A-choo! Smells good!"

These little guys are all children from nearby families. They are not very old, but they are also the most greedy.

Tang Qiyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"This thing is too spicy, you probably can't eat it!"

It’s not that Tang Qiyue was reluctant to give up the chili sauce, but the children’s stomachs were weak. Although the chili shrimp sauce smelled particularly tempting, she really didn’t dare to let them try it.

But the children were swallowing their saliva frantically. Tang Qiyue had no choice but to take out the leftover steamed buns at home, cut them into slices, and spread a little chili sauce on each slice. It was really only a little bit, but because she put a lot of salt, it was enough to make them taste good.

"One person can only eat one slice, no more!"

Several children excitedly reached out to grab the steamed bread slices, but Tang Qiyue chased them to wash their hands. After making sure that everyone's hands were clean, she distributed the steamed bread slices to them.

A few children couldn't wait to go out and started eating the steamed bread slices as soon as they got them.

It tastes so good when you eat it, and your tongue will feel so spicy after the steamed bread slices go down your throat.

They all ran home to find cool water to drink.

The amount Tang Qiuyue gave was very small. She was not worried about them getting diarrhea, but just wanted to scare them away.

Taking advantage of this time, Tang Qiuyue put all the chili sauce into a bamboo tube, and using the chili sauce in the pot, she threw in a handful of chili shreds, and then threw in the chopped sea cucumber shreds and stir-fried them together.

Compared to stir-frying chili shrimp paste, this spicy stir-fried sea cucumber is much simpler.

Considering Tang Xiuyuan and Bai Xu's appetite, Tang Qiyue used almost all the sea cucumbers.

Just as she finished frying, she saw Zhan Zeye running back, sweating all over.

"what happened to you?"

Tang Qiyue was puzzled. Didn't Zhan Zeye have to go to training? Why did he come back when he hadn't even finished his meal?
Zhan Zeye poked his head into the kitchen and took a look, only relaxing after confirming that there were no dangerous items inside.

"That kid Weimin came to me and said there was an explosion in our house. The kid couldn't explain it clearly. I was afraid something might happen, so I came back to check!"

Zhan Zeye was also speechless. He didn't expect that the explosion Hu Weimin was talking about was this explosion, a spicy explosion.

After listening to this, Tang Qiyue roughly guessed what was going on and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She put the food in the pot into a lunch box, thinking of sending it to Tang Xiuyuan later.

"What did you do? Why is there such a strong smell? I smelled it from far away!"

Zhan Zeye's mouth was watering. He had been busy the whole afternoon. Although it was not time for dinner yet, his stomach was already growling.

Tang Qiyue thought that since she was going to keep Zhan Zeye's portion anyway, she put the dishes and chili sauce on the table. The steamed buns were not hot, but the weather was hot, so Zhan Zeye didn't care. He just broke the steamed bun open and stuffed the chili sauce and sea cucumber into it.

He took a bite of half a steamed bun and soon his eyes lit up.

"Do you know how much trouble you've gotten yourself into?"

After eating a steamed bun, Zhan Zeye questioned Tang Qiyue with a serious face, which made Tang Qiyue stunned.
