Night 61: Garlic okra
Ah Zhai pinched the hawthorn cake and smiled, "Really? I thought I guessed wrong." β
The young man didn't speak, just looked at the phone in his hand with some embarrassment.
When Huo Bai turned around to take the materials, he found that the small basket that was originally placed on the side was missing, and sure enough, the basket was being held in Ah Zhai's arms.
"Eat less and be careful of your teeth. Huo Bai, who was holding the dough sheet, glanced at Ah Zhai and said coolly.
Ah Zhai turned a deaf ear, and Quan Dang didn't hear it, and the tooth was toothy, at least she ate it.
After a while, a pot of fragrant casserole noodle soup followed the young man into the tent.
Duan Ping sprinkled the cut eggplant with a full amount of finely flavored minced garlic, "Brother Huo, what breakfast are we selling this morning?"
Huo Bai was very annoyed when he heard him, and the most annoying thing he did every day was to decide what breakfast to sell that day.
It's not that he doesn't know what to sell, it's that there are too many options to choose from, and he is too lazy to choose.
Huo Bai, who was leaning on the corner of the stove, turned his head to look at Ah Zhai, who was happily eating with a basket, "What do you want to eat for breakfast?"
Ah Zhai licked the hawthorn cake crumbs at the corner of his mouth, smacked his lips and thought about it, "This...... Wait, I'll have to think about it. β
"I want to eat small wontons, preserved eggs and lean pork porridge, big dumplings and large rib noodles!" A Zhai's eyes stared at Huo Bai brightly.
"You can only choose one. β
Ah Zhai's eyes darkened, "What...... Shiro was happy......"
"Then it's good for you to decide for yourself, why do you still come to ask me. She turned around and ran to the freezer and pulled out two skewers of potato chips.
"If I knew, I'd ask you?"
Ah Zhai handed the potato skewers to Duan Ping, holding the basket and chewing hawthorn slices, "You just write out everything you can do early and number it, and then use the lottery or dice to decide what to sell for breakfast." β
Huo Bai thought it was a good idea, "Hawthorn didn't eat in vain, it seems that you still have a bit of intelligence." β
Ah Zhai gave him a big white eye, reached out and pulled a few tissues and crumpled them into a ball and smashed them at him, what is this broken brother?!
Huo Bai quickly reached out and grabbed the paper ball, "Your head has always been bad, don't lose it." β
"Go, go, write your breakfast list!" Ah Zhai waved his hand in disgust.
Huo Bai ran to find a pen and paper to write a list, and Ah Zhai hummed angrily holding the basket and eating snacks while watching Duan Ping bake potato skewers.
"Sprinkle me more white sesame seeds in the bottle~"
Duan Ping raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand and continued to sprinkle sesame seeds, "I have to eat most of this bottle of sesame seeds for you." β
Ah Zhai took the potato skewer and smiled and took out a mouthful of big white teeth, "There's no way~ Addicted to white sesame seeds, you can't extricate yourself! Don't you think the aroma of sesame seeds is particularly good?"
Duan Ping shook his head, "I don't think so." β
Ah Zhai smelled the aroma of potato skewers and suddenly remembered something, "Eh, by the way, why haven't I seen you go out to deliver food in the past two days?"
Duan Ping took the tongs and flicked the charcoal cubes burning in the grill, "Brother Huo's car was sent for repair, and it will not be delivered for the time being for the next two days." β
"Oh. If you send it, I can order it for you to send it upstairs, and you don't have to go out of the door. "Ah Zhai blew on the hot potato skewers.
"You are so lazy, Brother Huo will not agree. Duan Ping put down the pliers in his hand and smiled.
"yes......" Ah Zhai turned back to the stool and sat down.
As soon as she looked up after eating the potato skewers in her hand, she saw Sister Hua limping towards her under the light not far away.
It didn't take long for Sister Hua to walk into the food stall, she was very different from usual this time, her hair was a little messy, and her clothes were stained.
When Sister Hua approached Ah Zhai, she smelled a very pungent smell of wine.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Ah Zhai stood up and walked over to hand her a cup of hot water.
Sister Hua took the water and sat on the stool at the door, "It's okay, I'm in a little trouble." β
"Oh...... Eat hawthorn rolls or not? Sweet and sour are delicious. Ah Zhai was stunned, reached out and handed over the small basket in his arms.
Sister Hua waved her hand, "No need, bring me two ...... as usual" At this point, she paused for a moment, and then said: "Forget it, or don't want it, I'll sit down for a while and leave." β
After Huo Bai wrote the list and came out, what he saw was the back of Sister Hua leaving.
"That's ...... Sister Hua?"
Ah Zhai walked over and took the list he was holding, "Well, yes." β
After looking at it twice, Ah Zhai gave up, as always, Huo's style, messy and irregular, and all the words were densely packed together.
Her eyes hurt and she didn't feel comfortable anywhere, so she threw the list back into Huo Bai's arms with a shake of her hand, "You wrote this list to take revenge on society, right? I can't look at it!"
Huo Bai looked down at the list in his hand, a little unclear, "Is there any?"
Ah Zhai gave him two words, "Hehe." β
"Duan Ping, when is your birthday?"
"September 9, what's wrong?" Duan Ping turned his head to look at Huo Bai who was asking.
Huo Bai nodded, stretched out his hand and nodded on the list, "Ninety-nine...... That...... For breakfast, I sell white porridge and fried dough sticks. β
Duan Ping leaned over and glanced at the list with some curiosity, he didn't see anything clearly, he saw dense handwriting all over the paper.
He was dizzy when he saw it.
"Then I'll go and make noodles, Brother Huo, you cook the porridge. β
Huo Bai nodded, put away the paper and walked to the stove.
Ah Zhai sat on a stool and lamented, "I don't want to drink white porridge......"
"It's okay not to drink, eat the northwest wind. β
"Hmph, did you see the hawthorn rolled hawthorn cake here, I just gave you a bottle to eat!" Ah Zhai grimaced at Huo Bai.
"Childish or not naΓ―ve...... Three-year-old child?" Huo Bai moved the large pot specially used to cook porridge to the stove.
Duan Ping, who was talking to each other, said, "If you two quarrel, can you not drag him in?" He is very innocent.
The busy day passed in a hurry amid the quarrels between Huo Bai and Ah Zhai.
Because Huo Bai's car was sent for repair, he asked someone to deliver the goods directly to his door in the past two days.
This gives him a little more time to rest, however, he still likes to go and stock himself.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the food stalls opened.
The weather gradually turned cooler, Huo Bai and Duan Ping no longer set up tents outside, and the food stalls changed back to their original open-air mode.
Unless it looks like it's going to rain that day, a canopy comes out.
The bright golden sunlight sprinkled on the corners of the food stalls, and Ah Zhai leaned on the table with a small electric fan to blow at himself.
"Chicken soup huo ...... Why did you remove the tent...... It's still hot......" Ah Zhai's voice was weak.
Huo Bai wore a mask and stir-fried the fried noodles in the pot, and when he got up today, he found that he had a little cold, but fortunately it was not very serious.
"Hot? You can go back and blow the air conditioner. β
Ah Zhai pouted, "Don't do it, the electricity bill is very expensive!"
"Then get a job. β
Ah Zhai didn't answer immediately, she was silent for a while, "Yes......"
Ah Ota, who had been lying on the table for a while, straightened up, pulled over the computer with the charger plugged in on the table, opened the document and tapped on the screen.
After frying the fried noodles, Huo Bai brought it to her, "I'm eating it, don't make noodles after a while." β
"How can fried noodles be so easy to lump, okay, I know, I'll eat it right away. Ah Zhai withdrew his hands from the keyboard and drew a pair of chopsticks.
Huo Bai stood behind her for a while, "Don't worry, it's okay if you don't want to go to work." β
Ah Zhai's movement of eating noodles slowed down, she picked up a green vegetable, and stuffed it directly into her mouth without looking at it, "You always have to work, brother, you can't help me for the rest of my life." β
Huo Bai wanted to say something to refute her, but what Ah Zhai said was indeed right, he couldn't help her for the rest of his life.
"You decide. β
"Hmm. Ah Zhai turned his back to Huo Bai and nodded.
At ten o'clock, there were no more pedestrians in the square across the alley from the food stalls.
A slender woman in a suit with a hot figure walked in the direction of the food stall in black stiletto strap high heels.
The sky was pitch black, with no moon or stars to be seen, and at first glance it looked like it was veiled and foggy.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the woman reached out and tugged at her close-fitting short coat, which was of no avail, and she felt a little cold.
Looking at the warm yellow light not far away, the woman quickened her pace.
Standing in front of the stove of the food stall, the woman felt a warmth, smelled the aroma of the food in the food stall, and the woman began to order.
"Boss, a garlic okra, a stir-fried beef and a Yangzhou fried rice, no carrots in the fried rice, no at all. β
Huo Bai glanced at the woman and nodded, "Wait a minute." β
The woman's name is Gu Luoyi, twenty-four this year, and she works as a secretary in the office building in the square opposite the food stall.
She didn't come here to order food for herself, but to help her little proprietress bring supper, and to be honest, she had to thank the food stall downstairs in the company.
Otherwise, if she wants to order all the dishes named by the proprietress so late, she may have to run far, although she has a car, but the gas money is also very expensive.
Of course, if this food stall is not clean and the taste is not good enough, she will not dare to come.
Although she doesn't like the little proprietress very much, she is more afraid of being fired by the angry proprietress who fires her.
Huo Bai chose to fry Yangzhou fried rice first, and the time to fry the fried rice asked Duan Ping to process the okra and beef and other ingredients.
When he finishes frying the rice, he can directly fry the leftovers.
The recipe for garlic okra is very simple, pour oil into a hot pan and stir-fry the garlic slices until fragrant, then pour in the chopped okra, add a little broth, and stir-fry over high heat.
Huo Bai didn't like to use chicken essence very much, so he added some stock to the okra.
After the okra is fried to change color and soften, add salt to taste, stir-fry quickly and evenly, and then it can be out of the pan.
Yangzhou fried rice, garlic okra and a stir-fried beef, the time before and after did not add up to more than ten minutes.
Gu Luoyi secretly praised Huo Bai's efficiency in his heart.
After taking the bag and settling the bill, she touched the temperature of the box and left.
Huo Bai looked at the high heels that Gu Luoyi had stepped on, and couldn't help but marvel, this year's girl has such a good balance.
But the heel really doesn't break when it's so thin, and he's thought about it more than once.
