Chapter 151: Asking for Local Products (2nd Update)
Aftertaste picked up the white porcelain spoon, scooped a spoonful, and tasted it slowly.
He doesn't like sweetness or sourness, but the sweetness and sourness of this soup are just right. Although a lot of butter is used, and a fatty ingredient such as beef is used, it is not greasy at all, but very thick, much thicker than ordinary beef broth, much more delicious, and much more colorful. The taste is rich, fresh and smooth, and the layers of aftertaste are endless, and the intoxicating taste is deeply engraved into the taste buds and unforgettable.
"How's it going, is it delicious?" She sat across from him, looking at him with sparkling eyes and a smile.
Aftertaste smiled but didn't answer, scooped up a spoonful of soup and held it in front of her lips. Su Miao was stunned for a moment, obediently opened her mouth, took the spoon in her mouth, and drank it.
It tasted good, she smiled and narrowed.
Aftertaste Mo smiled, looked at her smiling face, and said softly: "Since I met you, your performance has been very steady, and what you cook is a guarantee." ”
This is his highest evaluation of her so far, she smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth, paused, and pursed her mouth again and said very unworthily:
"I don't know who judged my hollow surface when we first met."
"I still don't like to eat that hollow noodle of yours." The aftertaste is not disguised at all.
Su Miao snorted.
"But don't worry about selling, there are really a lot of people who love to eat."
"You're so picky, you don't love sour, you don't love sweet, you don't love salt, you don't love light, you don't love any taste, I always find it strange why you choose to cook as a profession, cooking is to let all kinds of flavors dance in harmony and naturally. It's as if a makeup artist is painting the most beautiful picture on the face with a variety of colors. ”
"My job is to mix flavors and make them delicious, and it's not my preference, and I'm not a fan of everything. I love the most perfect taste. ”
"Again, your perfect argument!" Su Miao said with a grin.
"I've thought about it, maybe I chose the wrong way in the past, but there's nothing wrong with pursuing the most perfect taste, that's not a bondage, that's the highest level."
Su Miao tilted her head and thought for a long time, then nodded her head slowly:
"Maybe. But I don't think it matters, for me, as long as the people who eat it will laugh because they think it's delicious. ”
Aftertaste glanced at her and thought for a moment. Said: "That may be your highest state." ”
"The highest? We are just cooking, and we are not martial arts cultivators, and we also have the highest realm? ”
"You can get this kind of thing in any business."
"Really?"
"If you don't believe it, go ask Uncle Cheng about those old people."
"It's not that I don't believe it, I just think it's ......," she shrugged. Giggle. "It's kind of interesting, my highest level is to make everyone who eats my cooking laugh because it's delicious, although I used to think like this, but I never thought of it as a goal."
Aftertaste's arm was placed on the table, his hand hooked her hand, pinched her fingertips with two fingers, glanced at her, and suddenly whispered:
"You're famous. I just don't know if Master Jingming will recommend you. ”
"What do you recommend me do?" Su Miao was stunned for a moment and asked.
Aftertaste lowered his head and pondered for a moment. seemed to want to say something, but didn't say it, hooked her fingers, and said with a faint smile:
"It's nothing, you just have to keep it the way it is."
Su Miaohu looked at him suspiciously, confused.
Dead.
Aftertaste stood in the room, turned out the copper box that he hadn't touched for a long time from the innermost layer of the wardrobe, opened the wrap wrapped in the outermost layer, two palm-sized copper boxes wrapped in gold velvet sleeves, opened the box, on the sky blue interlining, a set of sterling silver measuring spoons arranged by size, a small jade hourglass, a delicate and small measuring cup, he sat at the table, looked intently for a while, took out the small jade scale in the box, took the smooth silk, and wiped it finely.
The moonlight poured in through the turquoise screens, and outside the windows, there were many dots......
At dawn the next day, Ning Le was awakened by the sound of a broom, he drank a little too much last night, he knocked on his sullen head and sat up, the broom had already swept to the door of his room, it was not Su Chan or Chunniang who swept the yard so early, what these two people love to do most is to get up early and sweep the yard. He got out of bed in a daze, walked over to the bed, scratched the head of the messy bird's nest and pushed open the window, trying to tell the sweeper to stay away from his window.
"Ah, Ningle, good morning." A gentle voice sounded, with a polite smile.
Ning Le was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and what caught his eye was Lin Yan's delicate goose egg face, with smiling eyebrows and eyes, beautiful and lovely, standing in front of his window early in the morning, like a peony flower with dew drops in the morning glow, vibrant, bright and moving.
Ning Le looked at her directly, stunned for two minutes, snapped the window shut, washed his face and combed his hair and got dressed, and then opened the door, with one hand on his waist and one hand on the door frame, his white and tender baby face was slightly raised, and he greeted the brilliant sunrise with a vigorous and free attitude, and the speed made Lin Yan smack his tongue and look at him in surprise.
"Lin Yan, good morning." He said with a smile in a crepe tone.
Lin Yan's eyes widened and nodded.
Ning Le smiled at her for a while, although the scene was silent, he forgot to feel embarrassed, reached into his arms, and naturally took out an oiled paper bag and handed it over:
"This is the pine nut candy sold in my hometown, the authentic pine nut candy, for you...... That sesame paste you brought me was delicious! ”
"It's delicious." Lin Yan said with a smile, took the pine nut candy he handed over, and couldn't help but smell it, "It's so fragrant, thank you!" ”
Ning Le saw her laughing happily, his heart that was still nervous just now settled down, and the gift he gave was not disliked and received thanks, he was in a good mood.
At this moment, one of the doors of the main house opened, Su Chan was dressed in black short brown, stepped out of the door, stretched her waist for a long time, and when she was halfway stretched, she noticed someone in the yard, looked over, and looked at the two of them.
"Chanchan, good morning." Lin Yan walked over with a smile.
"What's wrong with your eyes?" Su Chan stared at her slightly swollen eyelids. Asked suspiciously.
"Eyes? Not really! Lin Yan subconsciously touched her eyelids and said with a smile, "Why did you get up so early?" ”
"Hungry. Can't sleep. ”
"I'm steaming red bean cake on the stove, give you two pieces to make up for it?"
Su Chan nodded and looked at the oiled paper bag in her hand: "What is this?" ”
"The local product that Ning Le brought back, pine nut candy." Lin Yan replied with a smile.
"Mine?" Su Chan set her eyes on Ning Le and asked confidently.
This is not waiting for someone to give away local products, but directly asking for it.
"I'll get it for you." Ning Le said helplessly, turned around and entered the house.
Lin Yan went to get some snacks. When Ning Le turned out the local products to be given to Su Chan from under the sack, there was already a shouting sound in the courtyard, and Su Chan was practicing boxing in the courtyard. The waist and horse are one, the tiger and the tiger are vigorous, how powerful and mighty they are, and how chic they are. Even he had to bow down. He thinks sometimes, too. Like such a girl who is more grandfathered than a man, I want to see what her husband will be like.
When she walked over, Su Chan withdrew her fist, stretched out her hand with the back of her hand facing down, and Ning Le honestly put the native product in her palm.
Su Chan opened the oiled paper bag, but her gift was not pine nut candy:
"White melon seeds?"
"Spiced, delicious." Ning Le said seriously.
"Why not pine nut candy?"
"When I bought it, there were too many samples, so I will give you one of you. Don't you love melon seeds? ”
Su Chan looked at him for a while, and Ning Le was furious when she looked at her. Su Chan didn't say anything, turned around, and began to eat melon seeds while walking towards the restaurant.
Ning Le saw that she was not unhappy because of the different gifts, and let out a long sigh of relief.
Chen Yang heard about Yipinlou from his old colleague again, and said to Su Miao early in the morning:
"The business here in Fengzhou seems to have been completely taken over by Tong Ershao, although Changsheng is still the head chef of the first product building, the real power is a lot less, and it is difficult for Tong Er Shao everywhere, Tong Er Shao is changing the rules in the first product building and the product fresh building at this time, which has caused many people to be dissatisfied."
Su Miao thought for a long time and asked, "What about Tong Ran?" ”
"Tong Sishao went out of the city a few days ago, and I heard that he was going to play."
"That means he's completely out of here." Su Miao scratched her cheeks, no matter how she looked at it, Tong Ran didn't look like the type who would obediently hand over the power in her hands to others, and let others squeeze out but not say a word.
"It seems so." Chen Yang replied.
Su Miao flattened her mouth, strange! It's kind of weird!
It's a fixed holiday again, Su Miao rarely gets up early, she and Huiwei made an appointment to go to the morning market together today, and then go to the newly opened breakfast shop on Menxiang Street to eat breakfast, the shop has just opened and is very prosperous, and the sweet tofu brain is very popular with Fengzhou people.
Aftertaste was getting dressed, Su Miao walked to the side door to open the door, didn't want to walk to the door, there was a slight sound of talking, open the door and look, the clerk and Lu Hui were standing face to face, their hands pushing each other, and they didn't know what they were pushing, seeing that the door was suddenly opened, they all looked over, and then their faces flushed.
Su Miao was stunned for a moment, whistled slowly, and said with a smile: "You two are really early today." ”
Lu Hui was so embarrassed that she blushed so much that she could steam eggs, pushed her hand into the hand of the clerk, turned around and ran away.
The clerk looked at her in a daze and suddenly ran away, and before she came back to her senses, Su Miao had already pulled out the soothing incense bag in his hand, the embroidery was fine, and it still exuded a faint fragrance:
"That's good, the embroidery is really exquisite, it's no worse than the one you bought, you earned it!"
The clerk was at a loss, paused, and snatched the sachet from her hand and sleeved it.
Su Miao looked at his uncomfortable face, but her expression was stern: "I said, if you don't mean that, don't accept other people's favors casually, refuse as soon as possible, and it's the worst to drag and pretend to be stupid." ”
"Pretending, pretending to be stupid?"
"She likes you so obviously, don't tell me that you don't see it, even a fool can see it, don't provoke if you can't take responsibility."
The clerk hung his head and was silent.
Su Miao was about to speak, but at this moment, the clatter of the carriage came, she poked her head out of the short alley, and a spacious carriage came and stopped firmly at the closed gate of Su Ji. (To be continued......)
