Chapter 003: Background
Uncle Mo took the little gourd to play in the yard, while Aunt Mo and Xiaoyue helped in the kitchen.
This era is not the same as the history that Ye Tingyao knows, and many foods that have not yet appeared in history are available here.
Ye Tingyao picked up the fat fish, planning to make a squirrel mandarin fish first.
Ye Tingyao is skillful in knife skills, and the cooking speed is amazing, but in a quarter of an hour, he has already made tomato sauce with tomatoes.
The mandarin fish is scaled and gills are removed, the internal organs are removed, and the edge thorns are removed, and the diamond-shaped knife pattern is cut after washing, and then the cooking wine and salt are evenly coated with starch, and the hot oil is poured to set the squirrel mandarin fish flower shape.
The action was smooth and smooth, and Mo Xiaoyue and Aunt Mo were stunned as they watched from the sidelines.
After a while, the mandarin fish turned golden brown in the oil pot, and after being put on the plate, Ye Tingyao immediately used tomato paste, balsamic vinegar, cooking wine, etc. to adjust the sauce, and at the same time stir-fried the garlic cloves of chives, fried bamboo shoots and small shrimp on high heat, and finally poured the thick sauce on the yellow mandarin fish like flowers.
Satsuki had never seen such an exquisite dish, swallowed her saliva, and excitedly brought the squirrel mandarin fish to the dining table.
Ye Tingyao quickly fried shrimp and eggs, zucchini, and then cut the tender tofu as thin as a hair, and burned a pot of celery tofu soup.
Mo Qi really came back smelling the food, and when he saw the table full of food, he sat down at the table without saying a word.
When Ye Tingyao brought the last dish to the table, Uncle Mo and Mo Dongzi did not move the chopsticks, but Mo Qi was like no one around, the chopsticks went up and down, and the squirrel mandarin fish told him to eat half of it, and while eating, he ordered Dongzi to make soup for him.
Ye Tingyao was not happy at that time, and after putting down the tofu soup, her tone was quite unkind, "Uncle Mo and Aunt Mo are elders and haven't started eating, why don't you understand etiquette so much." ”
Seeing that Ye Tingyao's face was displeased, Uncle Mo was busy playing the round, "Come on, come on, Yaoyao sit down and eat, I'm tired of cooking this table." Don't blame Qi'er, I must let Qi'er eat first. ”
Aunt Mo took Ye Tingyao by the hand, "Your Uncle Mo is also distressed that Qi'er has just woken up from her injury." ”
Mo Qi glanced at Ye Tingyao and said lukewarmly, "She's blaming Uncle Mo for not knowing etiquette." ”
Ye Tingyao, "You ......"
Xiao Yue served a bowl of rice for Ye Tingyao, and was very happy, "Don't talk, it's a pity that the food will be cold for a while, Sister Yao's cooking skills are really good, even the chefs in the city are not as good as Sister Yao." ”
Mo Dongzi's eyes were full of doubts, "Xiaoyue, when are you going to eat at Yipin Xiangju." ”
Xiao Yue's cheeks were slightly red, "I haven't eaten it either, that is, I just stood outside the gate of Yipinxiangju and smelled it when I waited for Daddy." ”
Mo Dongzi grinned and nodded vigorously, "If it weren't for Yaoyao, we wouldn't want to eat this delicacy in our lives." ”
Ye Tingyao was praised and picked up the chopsticks, "Hehe, I don't have other skills, but cooking and cooking are absolutely first-class, this is talented, I just have no teacher, not to mention a good fragrance, it is an imperial kitchen, and it can also be compared." ”
Ye Tingyao shook her head, cooking skills are her most proud and important, for her, it is the blood flowing in her life. In her previous life, she became a chef of a six-star hotel at the age of twenty-five, and she has made great achievements in the food industry, and is a shining star in the food industry.
"Heh, you are really panting when you say that you are fat, and you will brag about it if you give some face." Mo Qi stared intently at the meal, and scooped a large spoonful of slippery egg shrimp into his bowl while saying cool words.
"If it's not delicious, don't eat it." Ye Tingyao moved the plate in front of Mo Qi farther away, and hated to take away all his rice bowls.
"I'm hungry, I can eat no matter how bad it is." Mo Qi kept chopsticks, he walked nearly ten miles in the morning, and he was really hungry.
Ye Tingyao watched a table of meals for Mo Qi to eat most of the food alone, Uncle Mo and Aunt Mo kept helping him pick up the dishes, and Xiaoyue also secretly pushed the whole plate of shrimp and mandarin fish to Mo Qi.
Only Brother Dong Zi remembered her at the dinner table, and the last spoonful of shrimp and eggs, Brother Dong Zi pulled it into her bowl, Ye Tingyao knew that in fact, Brother Dong Zi didn't eat two bites himself.
After lunch, Uncle Mo and Mo Dongzi had to rush to the village to do farm work, and it snowed last winter, if there is no accident, this year's harvest will be good. The owner has promised them that half of the increase in the income of the Grange this year compared to last year will be given to them.
In this way, Uncle Mo and other farmers are full of energy.
Sending Uncle Mo and Mo Dongzi away, Ye Tingyao scooped a bowl of tofu soup and fed it to the little gourd.
Only then did he pick up the little gourd, and he was caught off guard by 'poofing'.
Ye Tingyao was stunned, and Aunt Mo called out first, "Oh, this bear child, color-like." After saying that, he knocked the back of the little gourd's hand with chopsticks, and apologized to Ye Tingyao again and again.
Xiao Hulu pursed his mouth and looked at Ye Tingyao with tears in his eyes, "Sister, it's good-looking." ”
"Aunt Mo, it's okay, the little gourd likes me, it's too late for me to be happy." Ye Tingyao hugged the little gourd and kissed it twice.
Xiao Yue followed and made fun of her, "The little gourd has a thief's eye, and Sister Yao looks like that fairy daughter, and she is the most beautiful." People in the city say that the second lady in Lianzhou Sima Mansion is one of the best beauties in Lianzhou County, but I think Sister Yao is many times more beautiful than the second lady of Ye Sima Mansion. ”
Aunt Mo knocked on Xiaoyue's head and said angrily, "Don't be there, go and clean up the dishes and chopsticks, a country girl, where have you seen Miss Sima Fu?" ”
Although she was scolded, Mo Xiaoyue still smiled, neatly stacked the dishes and chopsticks and hugged them into the wooden basin, and said, "How did my mother forget, I accompanied my father to the city to buy New Year's goods at the end of last year, and I happened to meet Miss Gongzi of Lianzhou County crowded by the West Lake in groups and didn't know what to do. I saw a young lady with a golden head getting down from the carriage of Sima Mansion from a distance, others said that it was Miss Ye Er, and others also said that what brocade on Miss Ye Er was worth ten taels of silver. ”
Aunt Mo was dissatisfied, "If you don't learn all the nonsense at a young age, how can your clothes be worth so much money." ”
Mo Xiaoyue saw that Aunt Mo didn't believe that she thought she was lying, and she was a little aggrieved.
Ye Tingyao's eyes were slightly dark, and the strength of the hippie smile faded by three points, and she only relieved Xiaoyue, "Aunt Mo, Xiaoyue is right, Miss Ye Er of the Sima family is extravagant, and that day coincided with the nobles of Lianzhou County gathering on the shore of the West Lake to enjoy the snow and poems." At such a party, Miss Ye Er is full of gold ornaments and beads, and the shirt and skirt on her body must also be made of silk and pearlescent brocade materials, and the pearlescent brocade is indeed very valuable. ”
Youye listened to Yao help her speak, Mo Xiaoyue's anger immediately became full, and her eyes narrowed into a line, "Yes, yes, it's Zhuguangjin, or Sister Yao is amazing, even I know this, will my mother be credible?" ”
"Okay, believe you, I know that Yaoyao hurts you." Aunt Mo poked Xiaoyue's forehead, "Learn more from Yaoyao, don't be stupid." ”
"Mother......" Satsuki stomped her feet.
Although she was praised again, Ye Tingyao couldn't be happy, she only lowered her head and smiled reluctantly, in fact, it was not that she was well-informed, she just knew Miss Ye Er better.
Because Miss Ye Er is her younger sister, and she is the eldest lady of Sima Ye's family......
