Before the main play, Du Qiyue got two beautiful little purses, touched them with his hands, and there were a few hard little things in them, and he knew that they should be silver ingots without thinking about it, although each one was only the size of peanuts, but it added up to five or six taels.

The little girl who came to appreciate the things was dressed in a new satin dress with red and willow green, and was dressed very decently. She saw that Du Qiyue looked good, and she looked polite, the original eight points of harmony became very kind, with a smile on her face, and her voice was crisp and praised a few words of dim sum that were good, looking delicious, and finally asked Du Qiyue if she had made any leftover dim sum, and if she could give her some.

Du Qiyue has been shopping in the Wu Mansion several times, and the maids of various levels have also seen some, and when she looks at the clothes of this girl, she knows that she is a powerful big girl, and she is sent by the old lady of the He family, and she thinks that she is a personal big girl around her. Du Qiyue was happy to do a personal favor, so he casually stuffed the two small purses into his arms, took out the remaining cup of sugar steamed cheese and three plates of various snacks piled together from the cabinet, put it in the tray and handed it to the girl, and said: "I don't dare to give the rest of the good ones to the girl, this cup of sugar steamed cheese is not very good, these three plates of snacks are all bad, and the appearance is not very good, but the taste is absolutely good, the girl does not dislike it, please take it." ”

said that it didn't look very good, but in fact, it didn't matter if it looked good, but there was a little flaw, and Du Qiyue felt bad because of his high requirements. Cui'er didn't care about any of that at all, she just had to taste good. In fact, if there are all kinds of food left after the birthday banquet, Cui'er went to ask Mrs. He if she wanted to get it, but Cui'er was greedy, and she was afraid that she would not be able to eat it when the time came, so she was anxious to ask Du Qiyue for it.

The handsome scholar and talent was originally the favorite character of the little girls who lived in the deep courtyard, Du Qiyue looked like, plus she knew the rules and was on the road, Cui'er looked a little hot on her face, and after thinking about it, she took out a purse from her sleeve and put it on the table, took the tray and said: "Thank you Lang Jun for these snacks, the old lady is still waiting for me to serve, I have to go, so I won't talk." ”

Many times the master does not have an accurate number of rewards, and the number of things that he really rewards depends on the people around him, this little girl can give an extra purse, it is her kindness, Du Qiyue understood in her heart, and hurriedly stood up straight and thanked her.

Cui'er said no thanks, turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

Du Qiyue retracted his gaze when he saw that the person was gone, picked up the purse and pinched it in his hand, stuffed it into his arms without saying anything, and then he washed his hands and began to knead the dough again. Later, when he wants to perform on stage, he has to prepare the dough to be used in advance, so that he can start to slide the noodles directly after going on stage, which is the most exciting part of the whole noodle making process, and when the noodles are ready, the presentation is also a brilliant part, so he also has to prepare the side dishes in advance.

Regarding Du Qiyue's practice of stuffing all three purses into his pocket, Da Mao was a little envious in his heart, but he didn't think much about it, and just buried himself in his work. Although he didn't apprentice, but now Du Qiyue is also half of his master, it is normal for the master to take away all the rewards, and the apprentice will never dare to complain, and Da Mao would not have thought that the purse would be filled with silver ingots, he thought that there were some copper plates in it.

Du Qiyue covered the kneaded dough with gauze and put it aside, and then began to make side dishes. The side dishes need to be mixed with meat and vegetables, and the vegetarian dishes should be washed and cut into shreds, put in boiling water and passed through, then they can be sandwiched and placed on a plate for later use. Meat dishes should be prepared in advance, and Du Qiyue knew that older people like to eat soft and sweet things, so he prepared to make a purple altar stew and a fish ball.

Zitan stew needs to choose a good peeled pork belly, cut it into about one centimeter of meat slices, blanch it, wash and drain. Then put oil in the hot pan and add an appropriate amount of fine white sugar to fry until the sugar is colored, wait for the syrup to bubble and pour the meat pieces into the meat pieces and fry until the meat pieces are reddish brown, and then pour the meat pieces together with the syrup into a large purple sand stew cup, then add glutinous rice wine, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, salt and a few spices and then cover the lid, seal it with a cloth towel and put it into a large pot with water to stew through the water, stew for about half an hour before eating, the longer the stew, the more soft and rotten the meat will be.

Fish balls are a little troublesome to make, Du Qiyue selected two fresh sea bass, after processing, remove the bones and skin, cut the remaining fish meat into small pieces and chop into minced fish, put the minced fish into a bowl and add salt and green onion and ginger water and stir until the gum, and then add egg whites and a small amount of blended starch and continue to stir until it becomes a sticky ball, and then several beatings make the fish paste feel capricious. Then grab some of the minced fish with your hands, clench your fists and squeeze them out of the tiger's mouth to form a ball the size of a pigeon's egg. The formed fish balls are boiled directly in boiling water and boiled until they float on the surface of the water, then they can be scooped up and set aside.

After singing another play outside, it was just noon, and the prepared wine and food were gradually served, and the atmosphere became more lively.

Mrs. He was a little excited, the dishes served were all good dishes, but there were not many new tricks, she had eaten a lot of dim sum just now, so she only moved a few chopsticks and waited for the new troupe to sing another play on stage. It's just that after waiting for a while, the troupe didn't come up, but a few small guys moved out of the knife bank and the stove. Mrs. He patted Boss He, who was eating meat and drinking wine, a little strangely, and asked, "What kind of troupe are you hiring, is this singing or cooking!" ”

Boss He drank a few sips of wine, and when he heard his wife ask, he laughed and said: "It's cooking, didn't you praise the chef for making dim sum just now, he wants to come up and make you a bowl of longevity noodles, blowing the sky, saying that a noodle can be made 100 feet long, and it is as thick as a hair, saying that it is going to be made for your old man to see a lively." ”

When Mrs. He heard this, she became interested and said: "Since people dare to come up to perform, how do you know that he can't make noodles like that, if they really do?" ”

"As long as he can make your mother happy, my son will reward him greatly!" Boss He patted his chest and said.

As he was talking, Du Qiyue and Da Mao came up with something, Du Qiyue put down the dough in his hand, made a gesture to the people under the stage, and said: "Today, Mrs. He celebrates her sixtieth birthday, and I will make a bowl of longevity and 100-year-old noodles for the old lady, and please wait for a while." ”

"Okay, then my old woman is waiting to eat this bowl of longevity and 100-year-old noodles!" Old Madam He said with a smile, even if Du Qiyue's face is not good, the name alone is enough to make Old Madam He happy, long life 100 years old, long life 100 years old, who doesn't like to hear this word.

Du Qiyue made another move, then washed his hands and began to knead the dough, after repeatedly kneading the dough into a long strip, one end of the dough with each hand, quickly pulled it up and down and shook it several times after lifting it off the board, and then closed the dough into a twist shape with both hands, and then turned the end of the dough with both hands again, shook it up and down a few times and then closed it into a twist shape, and so on seven or eight times after putting the dough on the board and continuing to knead it into a twist shape, then pinching off both ends of the dough, holding the dough with your fingers, and picking it up in the air, both hands at the same time evenly forced, while stretching the dough outward, And shake up and down. At this time, the noodles that were still a ball began to separate under the incredible eyes of everyone, turning into strips the thickness of several fingers. Du Qiyue folded the noodles in half, clasped the ends with his fingers and stretched outward while shaking as before, only to see that the noodles with hemp rope thickness just now split again and became as thick as fingers. After repeating this more than ten times, the dough in Du Qiyue's hand turned into a handful of noodles as thick as silk threads.

At this time, the guests sitting under the stage were already stunned, and they couldn't figure out how Du Qiyue kneaded and stretched a dough into a thin thread in a short period of time.

Da Mao, who was standing beside Du Qiyue and watching, was also full of surprise, he could see it more clearly when he got closer, the dough was like living in Du Qiyue's hands, it was unbelievable. I couldn't believe it at the same time, Da Mao's heart was pounding and pounding, he knew that this was a huge opportunity for him, if he could always follow Du Qiyue's side, if he could learn such a craft, then he Zhang Da Mao would be able to become a great chef and glorify his ancestors!

Du Qiyue didn't know what Da Mao was thinking, after he made the noodles to a satisfactory thickness, he straightened them and put them on the table, picked up a noodle and pulled it in two, and then stretched out his hand to Da Mao who was standing on the side and said, "Bring the ruler." ”

Da Mao woke up from his daze, and quickly took out a ruler and handed it to Du Qiyue. This ruler is exactly one foot long, Du Qiyue let Da Mao pull the end of the noodles, and then began to measure along the noodles, reading while sideways: "One foot, two feet, three feet......"

The people sitting in the audience didn't know what Du Qiyue's ruler was doing when he came out to measure the noodles, so they all stopped eating and stared at Du Qiyue's movements, only to see the ruler dancing in the air, and finally stopped at the end of the noodles, and Du Qiyue's number was exactly one hundred feet. After measuring the noodles, Du Qiyue puts the dough in the hedge, and then puts it in the bubbling hot water boiling on the side to start scalding the noodles.

Because the noodles are extremely thin, Du Qiyue only put them in hot water for a while before taking them out and pouring them into a large black porcelain bowl, Da Mao immediately scooped a spoonful of broth and poured it in, and the noodles spread out in the transparent soup, and the roots were clearly visible. Du Qiyue sandwiched some previously cut shredded vegetables and put them on the noodle soup, put a few pieces of stewed meat and two fish balls on top, and finally sprinkled with green green onions, and a bowl of shou noodles was ready.

"Mrs. He, this is a hundred feet of longevity and 100-year-old noodles, one foot represents one year old, and 100 feet is a hundred years old, please eat this 100-foot noodles and wish the old lady a long life and a hundred years old!" Du Qiyue shouted, while putting the noodles into the tray and letting a small servant standing on the side of the stage bring it to Mrs. He.

Mrs. He was already overjoyed when she saw Du Qiyue's noodle making stunt, and when she heard the good omen of this noodle, she immediately laughed, Boss He saw that his wife was so happy, and at the same time he liked Du Qiyue's craftsmanship, so he waved his hand and shouted: "Du Langjun's good craftsmanship, a bowl of long-lived hundred-year-old noodles, reward, reward, big reward!" ”

Du Qiyue breathed a sigh of relief, and was even more overjoyed when he heard Boss He's words, the three purses he just gave were ten taels of silver, not to mention ten taels of silver, how much should the big reward be at this time, Du Qiyue blinked, and he could almost see the shiny silver ingots that were flying towards him!
