13. I want to swallow my tongue

Early the next morning, Meng Wei said something to Steward Ma, and went to the kitchen early.

Aunt Lin and the others were already ready on the side, and when Meng Wei arrived, Aunt Lin hadn't started to cook anything, only a Gu shark fin was still simmering on a low fire, and she didn't need any cooking skills, so she handed it over to the others to watch.

Aunt Lin pulled Meng Wei to the stove full of materials on the side, and said, "Xiaowei, look at the materials you asked Zhen'er to tell us yesterday that the materials prepared have been prepared, can you see if there is anything else needed?" ”

Meng Wei glanced at it and nodded with satisfaction: "The materials are very well prepared, and there is nothing needed." Let's start now, Aunt Lin, Zhen'er, you two stay and do what I say, and the others will go out. ”

When Aunt Lin heard this, she was a little excited, you must know that Mama Gui suddenly asked her to do the food that Meng Wei made yesterday at dinner, and she already knew how to do it from other little maids.

Unexpectedly, at noon, Mrs. Cai asked her to turn over the moon silver for this month, and rewarded her with a Gu bird's nest in the evening, although it was not a blood bird's nest, but the bird's nest purchased by the Hou Mansion was of the highest quality, even she had not eaten it a few times.

If it weren't for Meng Wei, she might not have had a good mouth this time.

So now listening to Meng Wei say this, where is there any reason that I don't understand?

Meng Wei wanted to teach her to cook food alone, but as for Zhen'er's involvement, she was automatically ignored by Aunt Lin.

Not only did she decide to make it for the little marquis, she also counted Aunt Lin and her and Zhen'er's share.

Aunt Lin had a lot of strength, kneaded the dough and washed it about five or six times, until the water was no longer turbid, only a piece of yellow gluten remained, looking at the white dough under her hands, Aunt Lin had to admit that even if she had been in charge for more than ten years, she had never heard of this way of eating.

Taking advantage of the turbidity and precipitation, Meng Wei asked Aunt Lin to prepare the pastries that the little marquis would use with shark fin later.

Due to the novelty of new things, Aunt Lin would run over every time she finished making a pastry to see if the turbidity in the wooden barrel had completely settled, and her curiosity made Meng Wei suddenly feel like she was back to the present and only needed to move her mouth to point out the country.

Aunt Lin made pastries very quickly, several pastries were made at the same time, but three kinds of pastries were made in half an hour, and then she squatted aside with Zhen'er to watch the precipitation slowly stand.

"Xiaowei, I see that this is almost precipitated, and the water on it is much clearer, how to eat the paste below?"

"That...... Aunt Lin, Xiaowei, she seems to be asleep......"

Aunt Lin: ......

Looking at Meng Wei, who was sleeping soundly on the side, Aunt Lin wanted to get up, and squatted back silently.

There was still some time before the little marquis had dinner, so Aunt Lin waited patiently for a while, and when she saw that the water in the wooden barrel was thorough, she got up and pushed Meng Wei completely out of breath.

"Hmm...... Time's up? ”

"Xiaowei, the water is already clear, what should we do next?"

Meng Wei stretched her waist slowly, only then did she feel a lot more sober, and asked Aunt Lin to pour the water on it, and Zhen'er added water to the pot, and waited for the water to boil on the side, and then put a small, rectangular iron box specially prepared by Meng Wei asked Aunt Lin to prepare yesterday.

When she saw this tin box in the first year, the corners of Meng Wei's mouth twitched, it was because she thought too well of the current carpenter, this is said to be an iron sheet, but it is still much thicker than the stainless steel model in her impression.

Aunt Lin became an old man, and when she saw Meng Wei's expression, she guessed something, and hurriedly said: "Xiaowei, you said you wanted this yesterday, but I hurriedly went to the blacksmith shop to find someone to do it after dinner, although it doesn't look very good, but the style is not too different from what you said, this may work?" ”

"Alright, let's get started."

Meng Wei brushed a little oil in the iron box, slowly poured the mixed precipitation into the model, and explained to the two in detail: "The thickness of this batter depends on the preference of the person who eats it, and other methods are the same." ”

Shake the batter in the model so that the bottom of the model is evenly covered with batter. Then put the model in a pot of boiling water and cover the pot. After boiling, turn the heat to low, put the plate with the batter in it, and steam for a few minutes.

Aunt Lin and Zhen'er looked at the batter until it was transparent, and their eyes were full of amazement: "This, this looks so beautiful, is it possible to eat like this?" ”

"It's not okay to eat like this, you have to add something to eat it with it to be delicious."

Although there are no chili peppers, Meng Wei asked Aunt Lin to prepare sesame seeds in advance, stir-fry them in the pot at will, add a little sesame oil and vinegar, and it tastes good.

Meng Wei mixed a small half basin of cold skin, poured more than half of it into three bowls, picked up a bowl by herself, and couldn't wait to eat it: "Well, it's really a familiar taste, don't look at me, taste it." ”

"Xiaowei, this ...... Isn't this what you made for the little marquis? How can we eat? ”

Zhen'er's flustered hands didn't know where to put them, Meng Wei knew that she was a little scared, so she looked at Aunt Lin: "Zhen'er is timid, Aunt Lin, your skills are so good, you have eaten a lot of good things, how about tasting this taste, if it is not good, we will improve it, we can't just give the little Hou Ye something that we all find unpalatable, right?" The lady knew then that she was to blame. ”

"Yes, yes, Xiaowei is right, let's try it first, when I used to cook, I would always pick out a little bit to taste, right, since this little marquis has not eaten before, and we have not seen it, can we taste it well?"

At the instigation of Aunt Lin, Zhen'er also ate with her.

The three of them were already on an empty stomach, and they had already forgotten about their busy work just now, and they only felt uncomfortably hot.

As soon as the cool skin entered the mouth, Zhen'er's eyes couldn't help but light up: "It's so delicious, it's cool, it's fragrant, I want to swallow my tongue." ”

"It's really good, I feel that my whole body is not so hot after taking a bite, and it is very chewy, and it is really appetizing to eat this in summer."

After speaking, Aunt Lin lowered her head again and ate quickly.

The unanimous praise of the two and the anxious appearance of the monkey greatly satisfied Meng Wei's vanity, so she also became generous: "Aunt Lin, you should also learn this cool skin method, I will teach you to do something else tomorrow, and when you learn it, you will be able to do it in a different way, and you are not afraid that the little marquis will be tired of eating." ”

Aunt Lin just ate the cold skin and thought about whether she could do it in the future, but before she could speak, Meng Wei empathetically fulfilled her, Aunt Lin suddenly excitedly took over the dishes and chopsticks that had been eaten in the hands of Zhen'er and Meng Wei: "This is great, this bowl is greasy, I'll come, Zhen'er, you go to the side to rest, I'll cook you an egg later, Xiaowei, you should go back and serve the little Hou Ye quickly, don't let the little Hou Ye wait for a long time." ”
