Chapter 16 Treats
"It's good to go, don't send it off," Shopkeeper Yao arched his hand to him.
Li Yuanwai shook off his robe and made a "swish" sound, and left by himself with the little servant.
"Shopkeeper Yao, it's a good thing you arrived in time, otherwise it would be really hard to send him away," Luo Zhi said with a grin.
"As soon as I heard the news that he was out of town, I came to your house, and sure enough, he came to you in person, I have dealt with this person for more than ten years, and I basically know what he wants to do when he pouts his ass?" Shopkeeper Yao drank a bowl of sugar water, and rushed over quickly, and the bone shelves were about to disperse.
"Shopkeeper Yao, why did he go so simply later? I'm so afraid he won't leave! Luozhi asked.
"I told him, you are the chef specially booked by the young master, the person who took over Liangbi's position." Shopkeeper Yao spoke amazingly.
"When did our granddaughter agree to be your young master's cook?" The old man asked urgently. The children of their own family are not slaves or slaves
"Big brother, don't worry, this is all an excuse for Boss Li, otherwise he will always come to entangle in the future and be in trouble. As for the cook, I am talking about reservations, that is, I don't know when I am scheduled to work. ”
Shopkeeper Yao applauded his wit, this Li Yuanwai used to develop new dishes, but he blocked the door of people's homes for more than half a month! I have a trick to resolve the crisis of this dog skin plaster, and I am as witty as I am.
"Thank you Shopkeeper Yao for your help." After the grandfather and grandson understood the intention of the shopkeeper Yao, they sincerely thanked him.
It seems that this Xuanyuan Building is really his own backer, but the backer mountain will fall, and everyone will run, only if he is strong is the king.
"Shopkeeper Yao, we have a treat at our house tonight, and you will leave after dinner. I marinated the pig in the water, "Luozhi stays for dinner."
"Thank you Shaodong, the restaurant is busy and won't eat dinner. Shao Dongjia, you should be careful when you go to pick the chili pepper again, there will be people who are bought by Boss Li in this Mujia Village, and the eyes hiding in the dark are unguardable, and there is nothing wrong with Shao Dong's attention. Shopkeeper Yao said solemnly to Luozhi.
Luo Zhi also thought about it, Li Yuanwai knew whether the matter of selling his son was the news that flowed out of Mujia Village, no matter what, it was always right to be a low-key person and do things in the future.
Then he discussed the matter of lo-mei buns, Luozhi dictated, Yao's shopkeeper took a pen to record, and Xuanyuan Lou added a new dish, lo-mei series.
This time, Luozhi is a one-time sale recipe, because it is relatively simple and single, the marinade package is quickly configured, and she is also grateful to the shopkeeper Yao for his help today, so the price is not high. Although Shopkeeper Yao came to help her out of the interests of Xuanyuan Building, after all, people also helped her block Li Yuanwai, so it was very appropriate to thank her.
The shopkeeper Yao, who was in a good mood, took out a silver ticket with a face value of 50 taels of silver, which was the money to buy spice recipes.
It was the first time Luo Zhi had seen a silver ticket, and as for how to redeem it, his eyes were even darker. Fortunately, Old Man Mu had never eaten pork and had seen a pig run, saying that he was waiting for Luozhi to use the money, and he took her to exchange it once, and it was clear.
Shopkeeper Yao declined Luozhi's family's proposal to stay for dinner again, and went back to the town with the lo-mei that Luozhi had packed for him.
As soon as he returned to the city, Shopkeeper Yao immediately came to Jingtao Pavilion to reply to Lin Xiyong, and did not forget to bring the lo-mei given to him by Luozhi.
"Master, this Boss Li just went to Xiaoyou...... Mu Luozhi's family, fortunately, I arrived in time, and Li Yuanwai returned to the town empty-handed. Shopkeeper Yao replied respectfully.
"Mu Luozhi didn't want to sell his son to Boss Li?" Lin Xiyong stood in front of the bookcase, holding a wolf hair, splashing ink, and was painting a picture of mountains and rivers freely.
"It's impossible, even if I don't go over, Boss Li won't gain anything. Mu Luozhi is a small person with a firm mind, she is the young owner of our Xuanyuan Building, and she will not unite with outsiders to suppress our restaurant. Shopkeeper Yao just patted his chest to ensure that Luozhi was sincerely attached to Xuanyuanlou.
"Then why are you rushing over there? Does it seem like you're busy? His Excellency Lin Xiyong took the towel handed over by Tian Mo from the tray to wipe his hands, and said in a light tone.
Sweat appeared on the forehead of the shopkeeper Yao, and he said in panic: "I'm afraid that Boss Li will act in the dark if he doesn't do it, I have already reminded the young owner to deal with it."
Lin Xiyong thought about it, now it seems that the four black-clothed people will never be the people sent by Boss Li, if he sent them, he would not have personally gone to Mujia Village, his eyebrows and eyes did not move, but the temperature around him was a few degrees lower, it seems that there is really an enemy that he can't see in the dark.
"Master, this is the new lo-mei bun developed by the Shaodong family, I ate it last time, and the marinated pig is quite delicious. Today, when I passed, she had just marinated a set of pigs, so she brought some to the pack, and the master tasted and tasted "The shopkeeper Yao held the marinated pig into the water with both hands to Lin Xiyong.
"If it is given to you, you will take it yourself!" Lin Xiyong has never eaten poor food like pig water since he was a child, and he can't think about it, it is disgusting and smelly.
"This! ......" Shopkeeper Yao hesitated.
"Let's go down", Lin Xiyong sat down on the Luohan bed under the south window, holding a fragrant tea in one hand and a book in the other.
Shopkeeper Yao stepped back to the door, turned around and walked out
The blue clouds, the yellow leaves, the autumn colors are waves, and the waves are cold and smoky. The mountains reflect the slanting sun and the sky receives water, and the grass is ruthless, and it is outside the slanting sun.
The sun is setting, the afterglow of the sun is sprinkled in the stove room, Luozhi is busy in the stove room, she is using crispy peanuts, grandpa said that eating peanuts can maintain health, eating peanuts do not want to meat.
There is still a little bit of leftover peanuts at home, which was intended to be kept for the New Year to be eaten, but now the family's economy has improved, and I don't care about saving these three melons and two dates, the old man peels it well, and the Luozhi is fried, which is also the favorite appetizer of Grandpa Muyantang in Lizheng.
Wash the peanuts, fry them in a pot with cold oil, and slowly fry them until they are crispy for eight minutes, remove them and sprinkle them with fine salt. Peanuts should not be fried too much, and it is most appropriate to fry them until they are seven or eight medium-rare, otherwise they will have a mushy taste after they are completely cooled, and they will not be fragrant.
Then make dim sum, a fried eggplant box, a pumpkin pie, Luozhi in his previous life because of picky eating and love to pay attention to it, always eat out of the food is uncomfortable, so he learned to cook at home, slowly more and more interested, followed the online class to learn a lot of dishes and various dim sum practices in the north and south, now think about it, I really want to be grateful to myself who loved to learn in my previous life, there is a skill in hand, and I am not afraid to go all over the world.
The eggplant old man had already picked a big basket back, she selected four well-proportioned strips to wash and start cutting, the eggplant was cut with two knives and one knife in the middle was not cut, the shallots were cut for later use, and the pork was chopped and chopped. Put salt, spices, and shallots together and stir well, sandwich the meat filling in the middle of the eggplant and wrap it in the batter with local eggs, heat the oil in the pot, and fry it over medium heat until golden brown and take it out, but unfortunately there is no tomato sauce, otherwise it will be more delicious with it.
Just when Luozhi was busy, the guests came to the door one after another, the first to come was Mu Langzhong's family of three, Mu Boniang smelled the aroma outside the courtyard gate, and went straight to the stove room as soon as she entered the door, and asked the old man Mu who burned the fire to accompany the guests in the hall, and she took over the work of the Huotou Army
"Luozhi, look at your vigorous work, whoever marries you in the future will be very blessed." Mu Boniang watched Luozhi knead the pumpkin dough, kneaded the agent, and the shape was done in one go, full of appreciation, this child without a father and no mother was in charge early, looking at her sharp rope, if it weren't for her own Da Song being much older than her, she really wanted her to be her own daughter-in-law.
Luozhi put the pumpkin pie kneaded into the shape of a small round ball one by one into the pot and fried it lightly, and soon the pumpkin pie was crispy on the outside and glutinous on the inside.
Luozhi called Luo'an to come in, picked up a large plate of eggplant boxes and pumpkin pies, and asked Luo'an and Ah Shu to send them to Mu Ying. Mu Ying was detained by her mother to study at home, and she didn't come over for several days, so she found someone to bring her a message, saying that she must send her delicious food. This was her first friend in ancient times, and she cherished it.
When the Lizheng family arrived, Luozhi had just cooked a meal. She asked Mu Boniang to go out to sit, washed her hands and went to the hall.
"Grandpa, the meal is ready, are you setting the meal?" The hall is very lively, and adults and children have their own enjoyment.
"Serve the meal," said the old man in a hearty manner.
More than a dozen dishes were set up on two tables, Luozhi took the children to a table, and the adults were just a table, all of whom had been acquaintances for decades, and the atmosphere was warm, everyone talked about the dishes the most, and praised Luozhi's craftsmanship, Mr. Mu was a few years younger, the child was capable, and his old man felt comforted, and a smile crawled all over the corners of his eyes.
"Guihe, you will wait to enjoy the blessings of your granddaughter in the future, I don't see anything else in my life, I will meet people, your granddaughter will be this in the future," Li Zheng gave a thumbs up.
"Borrow your auspicious words, come, full, everyone let's go," Old Man Mu drank so much that his face was flushed, and he picked up the wine jug and stuffed a round of wine for everyone, everyone raised their glasses and walked one.
"This eggplant can still do this, it's the first time I've eaten it. Luozhi, your mind is so ingenious, no wonder your grandfather Lizheng has been praising you for your talent since he went back, this cooking skill can't be found in Mujia Village, and we have been cooking for decades! ”
Grandma Gui is Lizheng's wife, she has been around the stove all her life, and her craftsmanship is also well-known in Mujia Village.
"That's it, look at how old she is, she can organize such a two-table banquet, not to mention the color, flavor, and skill, she really has a delicate heart," Mu Boniang said.
Li Zheng and Mu Langzhong both nodded in agreement, this kid is really good, he does things safely and measuredly, and he is also atmospheric, looking at the grade of the dishes on this table, it is more than the average person's monthly expenses.
