Chapter 70: Nanxiang Xiaolong

Guan Zhuofan only smiled bitterly: In the final analysis, isn't it that people are not as good as heaven.

There is nothing wrong with the words - no matter how you calculate, God will give you a thunderbolt, and I don't know where to wear you. But when I see it at this time, it's more like a cool word, so I don't want to ignore it.

So he straightened his expression and gave incense to the old man Qin Yubo of the city god. Looking at Hu Qingqing again, but he was very pious, not only kneeling and worshipping, but also went to the back of the hall to incense Mrs. Chenghuang - Chenghuang actually had a wife, which was much out of Guan Zhuofan's expectations, and the statue of Mrs. Chenghuang could not be admired on weekdays, and only on the day of her birthday every year would be opened. But now the domain is here, of course, with the exception, Hu Qingqing wanted to worship, and her own temple Zhu hurriedly invited her to go.

After Guan Zhuofan finished this set of courtesy visits, he could relax and go to Yu Garden to relax. Yu Garden not only has good scenery, but also hundreds of shops of all kinds, eating, drinking and having fun, and even two smoke houses. It's just that as soon as Guan Zhuofan came, he was like a tiger entering the forest, and the beasts retreated, and everywhere he passed, there was almost no sound, how could there be half a bit of excitement at all? Only then did he realize that he had lost his mind - wearing an official uniform, hugging each other in front and back, this is what it looks like to have fun? It seems that the emperors all like to visit Weifu, which is not unreasonable.

In desperation, I was ready to go back after dinner, and I didn't need Jiang De's guidance, I had already seen the signboard of "Rihuaxuan" from afar.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal today," Guan Zhuofan squeezed his eyes with Jiang De, and said to Hu Qingqing with a smile, "The famous Nanxiang steamed bun!" ”

Hu Qingqing pursed her lips and smiled. Along the way, the respect and scenery she has enjoyed are from small to large. Never experienced before. Guan Zhuofan did not shy away from openly bringing himself out. This recognition and respect. is better than anything else for her, and she can be regarded as living up to her own affection. As for what to eat, it's really just a matter of irrelevance.

He likes to eat steamed buns, so accompany him to eat steamed buns.

When he entered the door of Rihuaxuan, Guan Zhuofan couldn't help but laugh - there was not even a single customer in the store! is so cold that Jiang De dares to blow it in the sky and in the ground.

"Jiang De, your words are a bit untrue......"

The words came out. has woken up, this is not cold, but Jiang De greeted in advance, asking the boss to refuse customers early and wait for his arrival.

At this moment, the boss is kneeling in the door to greet Lord Domain. Guan Zhuofan glared at Jiang De and said gently, "Get up and talk, what's your name?" ”

"Villain Huang Mingxian, welcome Lord Fantai." The boss's voice trembled. He didn't dare to get up, only glanced up slightly. Then he bowed down again. He saw that Guan Zhuofan's skirt behind him was like a ring, and he thought that this was Mrs. Fantai who came to incense with him, so he couldn't help but flatter him again: "The incense of the City God Temple is the most effective." I wish my lord a straight up, and I wish my wife an early birth of a noble son. ”

That's a bad word. Guan Zhuofan hasn't done anything yet, Jiang De's face has changed - although everyone treats Hu Qingqing as President Guan's internal family in private, but after all, there is no Ming media marrying, Hu Qingqing is still dressed as a girl, and now Huang Mingxian called out this sentence, so where will her face go? And this mistake, Hu Qingqing is most likely to be counted on his Jiang De's head.

In the officialdom, everyone knows that they would rather offend Shangguan than offend Shangguan's wife - if you offend Shangguan, you can still make up for it, and if you offend your wife, it is not easy to recover, and when the pillow wind blows, it will not be fun!

The more Jiang De thought about it, the more panicked he became, and he scolded: "Bastard! What are you talking about! ”

"Okay, he doesn't know, and besides, people are also well-intentioned." Guan Zhuofan said disapprenousively, "Boss Huang, please get up, we are hungry, so we came here to taste your craftsmanship." ”

"Yes, yes." Huang Mingxian, who was so frightened that his face was pale, got up, beckoned a group of people to sit down with his buddies, and began to carry vegetables from the kitchen to the outside.

"TΓΊrin, sit at a table. Jiang De, come and sit with me. Guan Zhuofan smiled, "Let's see if the steamed bun you said is so delicious." ”

Jiang De walked over, sat down carefully, peeked at Hu Qingqing, and saw that her face was slightly red, a little ashamed, but she had no intention of being angry, so he let go of his heart.

When it was time to eat, those dishes were also gone, Guan Zhuofan was full of praise for the big buns on the plate, the meat filling was delicious, and the ingredients were enough, and he had indeed never eaten them in other places. So with Jiang De, the two of them feasted, one of you and one of me, and they ate very happily, and between the words, they couldn't help but exaggerate.

"Boss Huang, I see that your big meat steamed bun is really the best in the world, I think the business must be very good on weekdays?"

"Xiexie-sama's compliment!" Huang Mingxian, who was waiting not far away, was full of smiles when he heard this, and bowed down and replied: "It's just that here in Yuyuan, the business is not as good as when it was in Nanxiang Town, and there are many peers - from here, there are several more, all selling Nanxiang steamed buns, and the villain is just barely making ends meet." ”

Guan Zhuofan and Jiang De have been eating, but Hu Qingqing didn't move much, only took a bun to the plate in front of him, poked it with chopsticks for a while, broke it again for a while, and tore off a little bit to taste it. Hearing Huang Mingxian say this at this moment, he smiled slightly, picked up the bun, stood up and walked to another empty table and sat down, beckoning to Huang Mingxian: "Boss Huang, please come, I'll tell you something." ”

Of course, Huang Mingxian had already seen that this beauty was dressed as a girl, so naturally she was not the wife of the lord of the domain, so he hesitated for a moment, and saw that Guan Zhuofan had no unhappiness on his face, so he dared to run over in small steps, bowed down and said, "Yes, please ask the girl to command." ”

"Boss Huang, please take a seat."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Be. Huang Mingxian cautiously sat down diagonally, not knowing what this girl was trying to do.

"This steamed bun is full of ingredients and tastes good, and it is naturally very popular when it is placed in Nanxiang Town." Hu Qingqing said slowly, "However, in the city of Shanghai, there are many nobles and rich people, and they are used to seeing the market, and they eat fine on weekdays. When they visit Yu Garden, not everyone likes to eat such big meat steamed buns, so you might as well change the tricks. ”

Huang Mingxian suddenly realized - no wonder business is not as good as before, it turns out that the crux of the problem is here! It's just that if you say "change the tricks", there is another difficulty, and he said curtly: "Miss Xiexie's reminder, I think it is so." It's just that the villain has been making this steamed bun for almost 20 years, as the saying goes, the credit is not as good as 800, and if you change the tricks, you don't know what will happen to the business? And for a while, I don't know what to change to. ”

"When you entered the door, the auspicious words you said were good prayers, and you were scolded by Jiang Tuanguan because of this, and I was very upset." Hu Qingqing said softly, "I'll order your delicate dim sum skills, which can be regarded as for you." ”

That is to say, what I want to thank is his sentence "I wish my lord a straight up", but the latter sentence "I wish Mrs. an early birth of a noble son" is not mentioned. In fact, in Hu Qingqing's selfish heart, after listening to this sentence, she was extremely disappointed - since her life has been decided, what woman doesn't want to "give birth to a noble son early"? This auspicious phrase alone is worth xiexie him!

However, in Huang Mingxian's mind, this delicate girl, although she is not the wife of Guan Fantai, but the nobility of her clothes and jewelry, it can be seen at a glance that she must be a close relative of the Lord of Fantai. Miss Guanjia, who has never been in the kitchen in her life, now wants to "order" her own craft, where does this start?

Although he didn't believe it, he didn't dare to say it directly, but his face naturally showed hesitation. Hu Qingqing saw it, smiled, and said: "Boss Huang, I'll give you eight words - to change the big to the small, and to fill the thin skin." ”

As soon as these words came out, the look on Huang Mingxian's face immediately changed, and he was surprised for a long time, before asking: "Don't dare to ask the girl, how to change the big from the small, and the heavy stuffing and thin skin?" ”

"You use fine white flour, knead it with cold water, and roll it out into a thin crust -- eight sheets for every two pieces of flour to be qualified. Then boil the meat skin with chicken broth, condense it into meat jelly, take the jelly and mix it into the meat filling of the steamed bun, sprinkle with some finely ground sesame seeds, and the fresh fragrance can be seen. When wrapping steamed buns, there are also particulars, to be shaped like water chestnuts, small and exquisite, each steamed bun folded fourteen, only to see the skill. ”

Hu Qingqing said it in one breath, and Huang Mingxian confirmed it in his heart a little, and he knew that he had met a big expert. Convinced, he didn't dare to have a trace of slackness, and asked respectfully: "Ask the girl, how to use fire?" ”

"Use a small cage drawer, and use the basket to steam the tea with a strong fire, and see that the bun is jade-colored, and the bottom is not sticky to the hand and cooked-the meat jelly meets the cremation juice, if it is too hot, it is inevitable to wear the bottom." Hu Qingqing said idly, "If this is the case, you will be able to eat, if you want to go further, you have to add some other seasonal ingredients." ”

"What should I add, girl?"

"It's nothing more than spring bamboo shoots in February, crab roe in September, and in the usual season, finely chopped with shrimp, which is also haode." Hu Qingqing said with a smile, "Boss Huang is an expert, and if you try a few times, you will naturally be able to know what you know." When out of the cage, take one and put it on a small plate, poke the skin, and fill a plate with juice, which is a good product. For guests, the tender ginger is finely shredded and served with balsamic vinegar. ”

"Yes!" Huang Mingxian has been making steamed buns for 20 years, and of course he understands that he has picked up a treasure, and said excitedly, "This dim sum, please give the girl a name." ”

"Name?" Hu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "You originally made Nanxiang big meat steamed buns, and this one is called 'Nanxiang Xiaolong Baozi'." As long as you don't leak the prescription, what is the difficulty in ensuring that you will be rich for 20 years. ”

Such kindness is too heavy, Huang Mingxian simply left his seat and knelt down, and kowtowed, but there was always a huge question in his heart, and finally couldn't help asking: "I don't know why the girl is so ...... to the skills in the kitchen." So ......"

Hu Qingqing hesitated slightly, but still said softly: "My surname is Hu." ”

Huang Mingxian listened, looked at her blankly for a long time, suddenly showed a look of surprise, pointed at her with his finger, and said loudly: "Oh, oh, it turns out that you are ...... delicate"

The voice did not fall, only heard the sound of "snap", and Tulin was already discolored on his face, and he got up.

Finally, he Boss Huang saw the opportunity quickly, didn't say the word "expensive meat", stopped his mouth, and slapped himself in the face: "The villain should be damned!" ”
