Chapter 51: A fire in the kitchen
The mist is thick and the clouds are sad for eternity, and the brain is golden. The festive season is chongyang, the jade pillow yarn kitchen, the middle of the night is cool and the beginning is penetrating.
After dusk, there is a dark fragrance on the sleeves. Mo Dao does not kill the soul, the curtain is swept by the west wind, and people are thinner than yellow flowers.
…………
The so-called eating people has a short mouth and soft hands, even if it is tea, you can't drink it casually.
"Well, if you can't afford to lose, find a way to make up for it!" Li Ke thought for a moment and made the biggest concession.
"Make amends?" How to make up for it? She doesn't mention that she is rich or poor, and now she even eats and drinks Lazar with him! The black grape-like eyes were spinning around, and this Li Keming was deliberate, so he would definitely not give up lightly. Coquetry? It's better not to do it, it's inevitable that the coquettish will be teased by the wild fox.
Melodious look at the hourglass, it's already noon, and I'm really hungry. Hey, there you have it! "I'll treat you to dinner!"
"Are you sure it's not this king!" Li Ke raised his eyebrows, this woman's monthly monthly silver was already rewarded by her, how could she have the money to invite him to dinner, could it be to sell her dowry?
"No, the meal I asked for was not something that could be bought for money, but this girl cooked it herself." Melodious laughter and groaning.
"You're cooking?" Li Ke's tail tone was long and raised, clearly not believing. "How, do you have the guts to try? Although your tea is precious and rare, it is not common for this girl to cook, and you are lucky today. Li Ke's naked doubts further stimulated the melodious little nerves, how could she say that in the twenty-first century, she would also cook a few side dishes, although it was not guaranteed to be delicious, but it was absolutely fresh for the ancients.
"Then the king is waiting for the masterpiece!" Li Ke spread his hands with an indifferent expression.
"Okay, don't hold me responsible for breaking my belly then." After Melodious finished speaking, he ran out of the study with a cigarette.
Li Ke pursed his lips at the melodious back, showing a slight smile, he didn't care about a cup of tea, as long as she liked him, he could immediately order someone to go to Yunnan to buy it.
Melodious came to the small kitchen of Yulin Courtyard, because the food and drink in the whole house came from the big kitchen in the backyard, so there was usually no fire here, and occasionally Li Ke would order someone to make some supper here when he was on official business or reading a book until very late.
"Hail the princess!" There was only one chef and two girls waiting in the small kitchen, and several people were panicked when they saw the sudden arrival of the princess, and they didn't know what to do.
"Get up, can you all go out for a while, I want to borrow it from the kitchen." Said melodiously and politely.
"What kind of food does the princess want to eat, let the minions make it!" Several people looked at each other, wondering if something was wrong.
"Your Highness wants to taste my craft, so I'll do it!" Melodious explained, thinking that she always couldn't afford to be the head of the house, and she would inevitably be polite when she saw anyone.
"Then it's okay to leave a girl for the princess?" The chef breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the princess didn't come to provoke and punish the crime, she could toss it no matter how she wanted.
"No need, I can do it myself!" Melodious hurriedly refused, cooking was already unfamiliar to her, and if someone stared at her, she would be even more hurried, and she must not be reduced to a pastime after tea and dinner.
"The minion is waiting outside, and you will give me an order if you have anything!" A few people saluted and hurried out of the kitchen.
Melodious will look around the kitchen, here is really the so-called "sparrows are small, all kinds of organs". Vegetables, fruits, and all kinds of meat are neatly placed on the table. She picked the vegetables on the case, wondering what to do?
But think about this late autumn season, if you make a plate of green onion fried mutton must be excellent, choose a good lamb loin cut into thin slices, the green onion white oblique knife thin shredded for later use, pour a little fried vegetable oil into the pot, if a little more than usual pour is also good, wait for the oil temperature to be 60% hot, quickly put in the mutton slices to slide and stir-fry, and then cook in the cooking wine, when the mutton slices begin to turn white one after another, then add the green onion shreds and continue to stir-fry quickly, and then sprinkle some salt when out of the pot It is better.
Melodious licking the corners of her lips, it's a pity, it's a pity, she is not good at making such a difficult dish, and it's just a red-billed green parrot, pearl jade and white jade soup.
Melodiously shrugged his head, and he thought about it, it was better to make a few specialty dishes that he had made, and this cold dish was one of them. She quickly picked a few cucumbers and a cabbage, and thought that she would cut the cucumbers and cabbage into shreds, fry some chili oil, and then put some minced meat, and put the ingredients on it to mix a dish, saving time and effort. However, cold dishes cannot be used as a main dish, and if you want to be perfect, you need to make another one.
Melodious looking for meat, there was cut chicken on the desk, and decided to make Daogong Pao chicken again, she found a few carrots and cucumbers, and took out some shaved peanuts.
The basic ingredients of the two dishes are ready, Melodious began to cut the vegetables, her knife work is clumsy, the thickness of the vegetables is very ugly, looking at her masterpiece, she comforted in her heart, the dishes are for eating and not for seeing, if Li Ke asks, it would be good to say that she is innovative.
In this way, the pre-order of the two dishes is done so-so, followed by fried chili oil, minced meat and diced chicken. She looked at the wind box under the stove in embarrassment, how to operate this thing? She recalled the scene on TV, tentatively pulling the wind box, and after a few pops, the fire under the stove pit that had not been extinguished was rekindled.
Melodious added some firewood to the stove pit and poured some oil into the pot, and when the oil smoked slightly, Melodious thought that he could fry chili oil, and took a spoon and prepared to pour it into a bowl with chili powder.
Worst! She didn't prepare chili powder!
Melodious hurriedly poured the oil into the pot again, and began to look around for chili powder, but he couldn't turn it over, seeing the oil in the pot smoking, he was in a hurry, so he thought that it would be the same to fry the minced meat first. She hurriedly poured the minced meat at hand into the pot, and the hot oil was suddenly poured into the minced meat, and the fire started a fire, and the flames rushed to the roof, and the wooden roof also burned instantly, she thought about dousing it with water, but the kitchen was full of black smoke at this time, and she was lost for her who was not familiar with the terrain.
"It's on fire, it's firefighting!" The kitchen was smoky, shouting and running towards the light.
"Go out of the water, the princess is still inside, save the princess!" The people outside heard the princess's shouts and rushed to the kitchen.
Melodious stumbled to the door, only to find that this was not the main entrance of the kitchen, but the small back door for carrying firewood and swill.
"Princess, how are you, where are you?" The shouts, the sound of putting out the fire, the sound was in the ears, and the melodious wanted to answer, but after thinking about it, if Li Ke knew that he would look down on her even more, cooking could cause a fire, and she really had no face to see when it was spread.
"Forget it, don't clean up this mess." Melodious muttered and looked at the back door, and saw that there was a path outside to go straight out of the house, and at this time everyone was fighting the fire, so she took advantage of the chaos to run out of the house.
