Chapter 110 Mutton Pilaf
As soon as the day dawned, Li Yan woke up, put on his clothes and quietly came to the courtyard, carried a bucket of water in the well and poured it into the copper plate, and was about to wash his face, when he happened to see Mu Bangxiang also out of the house.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Last night, in order to entertain the people of the Lin Family Medical Center, Mu Bangxiang and Mu Sanwei were tired for a night.
"I want to go to the yamen with you to persuade Miss Sun." The corners of Mu Bangxiang's eyes were blue, and she was always thinking about Miss Sun last night, so naturally she didn't sleep well, "Otherwise, I would feel very sorry for her." ”
Knowing that Du Ruo was a fire pit, she really couldn't do it when she watched Miss Sun jump down.
Li Yan understood Mu Bangxiang's thoughts, so he did not stop him.
After cleaning up, the two of them went directly to Qingyu Street, bought two flax cakes, and rushed to the yamen while eating.
Everything went unexpectedly smoothly, what Mu Bangxiang was worried about did not happen, and Sun Yanyan heard that she was coming, and she did not refuse.
After following the maid to the west wing, the pink-clothed maid who was waiting in the room gave tea, and then stood respectfully to the side.
She wore a tender green dress today, her face was covered with a thick layer of fat powder, and the golden step on her bun shook gently and made a crisp sound.
"I didn't expect you to come to see me." After sitting down, Sun Yanyan couldn't help but sigh, she still remembered the things she had done to Mu Bangxiang before, and when she heard the maid say that she was coming, she thought she had heard it wrong.
Gently took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, and Mu Bangxiang lowered her voice: "I know that the two of us are not friends, but there is one thing I still want to persuade you, that Du Ruo's purpose is not pure." ”
"Did he pursue you before?" Sun Yanyan's tone was very calm, and she couldn't hear a trace of anger.
However, Mu Bangxiang still felt shocked, she didn't expect Du Ruo to tell everything, it seemed that this man was more difficult to deal with than she imagined.
"Do you say it's a coincidence that the men who have a relationship with me like you?" The corners of Sun Yanyan's mouth hooked up a sneer, especially when she saw Mu Bangxiang's slightly embarrassed expression, she seemed to have a trace of happiness.
At this moment, Mu Bangxiang didn't know how to speak at all, and she felt that it was wrong to say anything.
"Actually, it's not that I hate you, but I just can't understand why men like you." After a pause, Sun Yanyan continued, "Is it because your cooking skills are very good?" ”
If you think about it, that's really the case.
When she was in Cuihuayuan, she was able to get Li Yan's favor entirely because of her good cooking skills, and she was able to keep Li Yan later because of her cooking skills.
"Miss Sun, I have reached the position of talking about marriage with Li Yan, and I will not look at other men. If you really like Brother Liu, it is better to guard his side, I believe that one day, he will be impressed by you. ”
Mu Bangxiang also knew that such a chance was very small, but it was better than letting Sun Yanyan marry like this!
"Since Brother Sun came to Yamen, I have been following him all day, and he has never looked back at me once, he is really tired." Sun Yanyan's voice was full of exhaustion, for five years, she never thought of giving up, until she was kidnapped that day, Liu Yi's first sight was to check if Mu Bangxiang was safe, and at that moment, she was completely dead.
Mu Bangxiang could feel her despair, everything she could say had already been said, and it seemed that she couldn't change her decision.
No, you can't just give up.
After pondering for a moment, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Otherwise, I'll teach you to make a dish, and you will send it to Brother Liu to taste?" ”
Not to mention, Sun Yanyan is really a little moved, Mu Bangxiang's cooking skills can't be said, if she must teach herself to cook, maybe it will make Brother Liu change his mind!
"But I've never cooked, what if Brother Liu doesn't like to eat at that time?"
"Don't worry! As long as I'm here, I'm sure your food is delicious. Mu Wanxiang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Sun Yanyan was relieved, the rest of the matter would be easy to do, and it was a big deal to let Liu Yi hold Sun Yanyan first until Du Ruo's background was clear.
In the back kitchen of Sun's Mansion, Mu Bangxiang pulled the black things in the pot a few times with chopsticks, and she regretted what she said just now.
"I'm not born to cook, so let's just finish there!" Although Sun Yanyan really wanted to make a few dishes for Liu Yi to taste, after cooking more than a dozen of such dark things, she completely wanted to give up, "I think it's still honest......"
Mu Bangxiang quickly interrupted her: "I have an idea, you go and prepare carrots and onions and potatoes, as well as two large bowls of raw rice." ”
This time, Sun Yanyan didn't ask much, but obediently did what she said, and when she was ready, she found that Mu Bangxiang was making a piece of lamb chops.
At this moment, Sun Yanyan couldn't hold back any longer: "Mu Bangxiang, you asked me to prepare raw rice and mutton, what kind of dishes do you want to make?" ”
"Hand-grasped mutton rice, with vegetables and meat, simple and delicious, is the most suitable dish for novices." Mu Bangxiang moved his position, beckoned Sun Yanyan to step forward, and handed over the bone chopping knife in his hand.
Fortunately, Sun Yanyan has a strong temperament, and she has also practiced one and a half moves with Liu Yi on weekdays, and the strength in her hands is not weak, so she took it easily.
Chop the lamb chops into small pieces according to the requirements of Mubangxiang, put them in the pot, pour water until it overflows, add peppercorns to remove the fishy smell, and remove them after the water.
Add oil to a hot pan, pour in the drained lamb chops and stir-fry, add star anise, peppercorns and other seasonings, add water and simmer until the lamb is soft.
Finally, the lamb is boiled with onions, potatoes and carrots that have been turned over in the raw rice.
Sun Yanyan was a little nervous, she had never seen such a cooking method, could it be delicious?
Compared to her uneasiness, Mu Bangxiang is very calm, in modern times, she occasionally makes a pilaf once or twice, and she has not eaten it once since she crossed over, but she misses that taste more and more.
About an hour later, the rich aroma enveloped the entire back kitchen, and even spread to the entire yamen, causing everyone to wonder where the fragrance wafted out.
"Taste it!" After uncovering the lid, Mu Bangxiang handed a bowl to Sun Yanyan, and then another bowl was served, and I couldn't wait to taste it, well, it was really good.
Seeing that she was enjoying it, Sun Yanyan hurriedly took a bite, the soft and glutinous rice had a faint mutton fragrance, and the stewed mutton had a rice fragrance, the taste was really wonderful.
