Chapter 34: Lunch

Haoyu is a human being in two lives, but he is so sentimental, just because there are few people who were good to him in his previous life, he has always been giving to others, and after coming to the Shenwu Continent, he got acquainted with Huo Qing, Ziyue and Chenfeng, their unconditional kindness and care for him, which made Haoyu feel family affection.

Xiao Zhuang stood beside Haoyu and put his hand on Haoyu's shoulder.

Xiao Zhuang looked at the disappearing back of the purple moon dust wind and sang: "I want to see you again, even if I leave in a hurry." ”

Haoyu was in a good mood, "Thank you, Brother Zhuang." ”

Xiao Zhuang said with an embarrassed face: "Uncle Huo Qing sang, I only remember one sentence." ”

Haoyu held the bronze sword and stroked the lines on it.

"Haoyu, I still have work to do, I'll go and get busy first, you can be busy too!"

After saying that, Xiao Zhuang turned around and sat back in the chair and continued to peel his turnips.

"Brother Zhuang, wait, I'll put this sword in the backyard house and come over to help you. ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Zhuang replied.

Haoyu went back to the backyard and put the sword in the bedroom, and then walked back to the front yard to continue working, and the two were busy for another half an hour before they were free.

Xiao Zhuang and Haoyu put the baskets of sorted dishes on the table in the back kitchen neatly, and the meat in the big mouth was almost cut, and began to stir-fry the vegetables.

Xiao Zhuang made a fire to cook rice, and Haoyu looked at the big mouth stir-fry when he had nothing to do.

Today's noon dish is also five dishes and one soup, braised pork ribs, fried tofu with sliced meat, fried pork slices with green onions, cucumber slices of meat, Oi vegetables, and pork knuckle radish soup.

Stir-fry with a big mouth, Haoyu adds firewood to the stove from time to time.

When the big iron pot on the stove was hot, he scooped two large spoonfuls of lard and put it in the pot, and then scooped a large spoonful of soybean paste and fried it in the pot.

Big mouth talks a lot, and talks while frying.

"This lard is made of fatty meat, and when the fat pork is boiled, a little water should be put into it, so that the oil boiled out is bright and not astringent. ”

Haoyu listened intently to the big mouth, and from time to time he stuffed a piece of wood into the stove, and if the fire was too big, Haoyu would drag the firewood out a little.

"The soybean paste is very delicious, the soybeans are soaked for five hours, cooked and drained, sprinkled with refined salt, a small amount of rice wine and dried for seven days, then put in the jar, let it stand for a month and then take it out for cooking. ”

"Soybean paste is boiled in the meat, which can improve the deliciousness of the meat, and the sauce can break down the tendons in the meat, making the meat more fragrant and delicious in the mouth. ”

Big Mouth doesn't say those special terms such as sauce enzymes, decomposition, etc., and there is no such thing as chemistry here.

The big mouth spoke in a good way, which made Haoyu can't help but think about it.

"After stir-frying the sauce in oil, add water, boil until the edge of the pot bubbles, and then put in the ribs, so that the ribs will not be firewood. ”

Big Mouth picks up the ribs on the table and pours them into the pot.

The big mouth kept talking, Haoyu didn't answer, but Haoyu listened very seriously.

"After the ribs are put into the pot, stir with a spoon to heat the ribs evenly, then add spices and cover the pot, turn the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, then add a little salt and wait for a minute to get out of the pot. ”

At that time, there was no chicken powder and monosodium glutamate to enhance freshness, but the materials at that time were fresh and authentic, and the umami in the meat was more original than that of chicken powder and monosodium glutamate.

After the big mouth covers the pot, he waits aside.

"Haoyu, what do you like to eat, Brother Big Mouth will make it for you. ”

looked at Haoyu with a big mouth, and the concerned gaze warmed Haoyu's heart.

Big Mouth thinks of himself as a younger brother, or as his dead son.

Haoyu makes the big mouth feel like a relative, Haoyu likes to listen to his chatter, and praises a few words from time to time, which is the best response to a person who likes to be verbose.

"The dishes made by Brother Big Mouth are the most delicious, as long as they are made by Brother Big Mouth, I like to eat them. ”

Brother Big Mouth is very happy, happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

Haoyu saw the big mouth's heartfelt concern, how could Haoyu bear to let the big mouth down.

Being needed is a value.

Haoyu thought about it, but after a few breaths, Haoyu seemed to think of something.

Haoyu looked at Big Mouth and smiled: "Does Big Mouth know how to make cakes?"

Big Mouth was thoughtful, what was so delicious about the bread? Big Mouth was puzzled.

Haoyu began to explain, "Roll out the dough into a cake shape, add fat and thin pork to the bread, add green onions, and fry it in lard until it is yellow on both sides, the taste is really ......." ”

The adjective Hao Yu didn't say it, and when he looked at Hao Yu's longing look, he knew that Hao Yu liked to eat this kind of meat pastry.

"This big-mouthed brother will, big-mouthed brother will make it for you later. ”

"Thank you, Big Mouth. ”

The braised pork ribs are out of the pot, and the big mouth continues to fry the second dish while stir-frying.

Haoyu asked two words of praise from time to time, and added firewood to the earthen stove.

Xiao Zhuang rice was cooked, put it in a wooden barrel and began to steam the rice, although Xiao Zhuang did not speak, he would still glance at the big mouth Haoyu from time to time.

Half an hour later, the aroma of steamed rice came out, and the dishes were fried and put into pots.

Xiao Zhuang and Haoyu took out a pot of vegetables and placed them neatly on the stone platform, then carried the rice and soup, and finally stacked the trays, bowls and chopsticks neatly on the stone platform.

On the left are trays and chopsticks, and on the right are vegetable bowls, rice buckets and soup buckets.

The tray is a wooden one-foot-and-a-half square, with a half-finger wooden frame on the side, the bowl is a porcelain bowl, a sea bowl, a small bowl, a bowl for soup at noon is a medium bowl, and the rice is packed in a tray, and a soup bowl with chopsticks is placed on it.

Big Mouth finished his work and began to clean up the kitchen, cleared out a table, closed two catties of noodles, and prepared to make some dough.

At noon, the students ate first, and the rest was eaten by Xiao Zhuang Haoyu's big mouth, and the unfinished ones were left to eat at night, and they were not wasted.

However, in a quarter of an hour, two or three students arrived, and of course there was no shortage of students who walked alone and had a withdrawn personality.

The trainees began to line up to eat.

Haoyu is in charge of cooking, and after cooking the rice, he hands the tray containing the rice to Xiao Zhuang, and Xiao Zhuang takes the tray and goes to the tray to beat vegetables.

Haoyu uses a wooden shovel to fill the amount of rice, Haoyu eats according to how much he can eat, some students can eat more, and then add food and vegetables after eating, anyway, it is enough to pay for it.

Many students are face-to-face, Zong Xian, Hong Zhihao Yu also know each other, and the two can always be at the front.

The two glanced at Haoyu, smiled and signaled without speaking, and Haoyu responded with a smile.

It was Song Qing's turn, Song Qing lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Haoyu, probably because he hadn't thought of what it meant to soak a horse, and he was afraid that Haoyu would make fun of him.

Haoyu saw Song Qing and deliberately shouted, "Song Qing." ”

Song Qingxin looked around and said, "I'm so hungry!"

Haoyu shook his head and smiled, handed the tray to Xiao Zhuang, there were still a lot of queues behind him Now is not the time to chat.

When it was Murong Yu's turn, she also pretended not to know Haoyu and turned her head to the side.

"Little sister, your meal is ready. ”

Murong Yu looked back, "Where's my dish?"

"All I said was that your meal was ready. ”

Murong Yu stretched out his hand and pointed at Haoyu, "You, you dare to tease me, I asked Uncle Shi to lock you up." ”

"Oh, which one is teasing you?"

Murong Yu was speechless for a while.

Xiao Zhuang spoke: "Murong Yu, your dish is ready." ”

Murong Yu took the tray and glared at Haoyu, "Hmph!"

Haoyu showed a happy smile on his face, and he continued to pack food with work in his hands, and when he met someone who knew the name, he asked Hou a few words, but he didn't say much.

However, as soon as there was a stick of incense, the students' meals had already been finished, and two or three people sat around a table and began to eat.

Haoyu, Xiao Zhuang can't eat until the students are full after eating, and they are not very hungry at this time.

The morning was Haoyu's first contact with the students, and the teenagers and girls had a fresh acquaintance and many topics.

After getting acquainted, there was nothing to discuss, the lunch was much quieter, and the students were tired from practicing swordsmanship all morning, so they left the table one after another after eating and went back to their courtyard for a lunch break.
