Chapter 51: Beef Tongue Cake
There is no watch in this era, Jiang Yu lit a stick of incense, estimated the time, and felt that the beef tongue cake was almost baked, so he turned on the oven, and the skin was slightly charred - it was baked. She took out the beef tongue cake one by one, and couldn't wait for it to cool down, so she couldn't wait to break it open, the sesame fragrance mixed with sweet and salty taste, it smelled good, Jiang Yu licked her mouth.
Should it be considered a success? However, Jiang Yu is also doing it for the first time, and I don't know if other people will like the taste of this mixture.
It seems that Jiang An can only be the guinea pig again.
Jiang An came back early today and is now reading a book in his room. She didn't want Jiang An to go to the school, but seeing Jiang An's addiction to books, she couldn't bear to brush his hobbies, so she should be more careful. And Jiang An, since Jiang Yu said that Jiang An can go to school after spring, he has been more diligent.
Wang Shaoci saw that he was studious, and he also gave a few words of advice from time to time, and Jiang An made rapid progress. He heard about this from Jiang Yu, and these days he is also helping Jiang An inquire about the school he can go to, hoping to find him a suitable place to study.
Jiang Yu knew about this and was very grateful to Wang Shaoci, if he did anything extra, he would have prepared a copy for Wang Shaoci, but it would give him a feast.
"An An, how about you try this snack?"
Jiang Yu put the food box on the table, opened the lid to reveal the snacks in the food box, helped Jiang An tidy up the table by the way, and said: "It's late, don't read too late, it's easy to waste your eyes, if you're hungry, come and eat something." β
Jiang An nodded, put down the book in his hand, looked down at the long strip of dim sum in the food box, and curiously picked up a piece to taste. The taste is a little special, it seems to be sweet but not sweet, it seems to be salty but not salty, although the filling is dry, it is not sticky to the teeth, the skin is crispy and the slag will fall off as soon as you bite it, Jiang An hurriedly caught the dim sum dregs with his other hand to prevent them from falling on the table.
Jiang Yu saw that he was quite fragrant when he ate it, so he also ate an extra piece.
I don't know if they will agree to let her sell this dim sum in Xiangmanyuan after they taste it, and now the dim sum is sweet, and there is really no salty sweetness. Except for the lotus paste egg yolk mooncakes made during the Mid-Autumn Festival - but strictly speaking, that is not considered salty and sweet.
"How is An'an, is it delicious?"
Jiang An chewed the snack carefully and nodded, "Well, it's delicious, although this taste is rare, but my aunt is good at what she does." β
It turns out that this kid is eating snacks with a filter. Jiang Yu couldn't laugh or cry a little, and reached out and touched his head.
"Auntie, I think Brother Wang is really powerful."
Jiang An was still a little slurred because of eating, but this sentence was extremely clear. Jiang Yu wanted to laugh, but he didn't know what kind of drug Wang Shaoci had given Jiang An, so that this kid's three sentences began to be inseparable from Wang Shaoci, isn't this the same reason as Chen Yao's three sentences and Yang Xuan?
"What's going on?"
"He can read a lot of books, and he can write and draw by himself, if only I could be like him in the future!"
Looking at Jiang An's adoring look, Jiang Yu was a little jealous, and rubbed his hair vigorously, "An An is so smart, he will definitely be like Wang Gongzi in the future." Have you been getting along well lately? β
She rarely asked Jiang An what she did when she was by Wang Shaoci's side, as long as Jiang An was happy. But this kid can't hide things, as soon as he returns to the restaurant, he chatters with Jiang Yu about what he did today, and what is delicious and fun at Wang Shaoci's house. Recently, she probably said that she was tired, and Jiang An didn't share much with Jiang Yu - she was still a little unaccustomed to it.
"Hmmm! Very good, Brother Wang is a good person and taught me to write. Jiang An nodded seriously.
Jiang Yu looked down at the paper on which Jiang An was writing, although the words on it were still a little childish and lacking in strength, but the handwriting was square, and it was already beginning to see the wind and bones, which was different from the words he had written by copying the script before, it seemed that Wang Shaoci had put in a lot of effort. It's already good to be able to write like this at a young age, Jiang Yu put away the paper and touched Jiang An's head again.
"Then An An will study hard with Wang Gongzi, and he will be able to be a scholar like him in the future."
But what about the Jiang family's craftsmanship? If Jiang An wants to study medicine, then this craft is afraid that it will be lost. Jiang Yu shook his head, maybe it's too early to think about this - but she learned cooking with Old Lady Jiang when she was as old as Jiang An, oh it's not her, it's the original owner.
Anyway, it's time for her to plan for Jiang An.
Of course, Chen Yao would not miss Jiang Yu's newly made beef tongue cake, and she also asked Jiang Yu to leave a little more for her to take home to eat, which made Jiang Yu laugh for a while, saying that she was a squirrel for the winter and not only wanted to eat it, but also stocked up on food and ate it slowly. Chen Yao looked at her with disgust, and said that it wasn't because the things you made were delicious that I raised my mouth.
However, this time Chen Yao didn't bring snacks to Yang Xuan to eat.
In addition to Jiang Yu's reminder, the last incident still left Chen Yao with some bumps, which made her a little wary of him. Maybe he didn't do anything, but Chen Yao still had some unspeakable mustard.
This dim sum will be sold in Xiangmanyuan anyway, and if you want to eat it, you don't have to rush to eat it in these two days. ββThese words were when Jiang Yu casually asked Chen Yao why she didn't give Yang Xuan food, Chen Yao told her, Jiang Yu secretly let go of half of her heart - she didn't want to give Yang Xuan food.
For this beef tongue cake, Shopkeeper Chen quite liked, although the first time I tried the salty and sweet taste was a little weird, but the salty fragrance and slightly sweet mixed together brought a different feeling. Jiang Yu did a good job, this peculiar taste, if they were the first to sell it, they should make a lot of money.
If so, the beef tongue cake will also be served in Xiangmanyuan.
The appearance of this dim sum is not as small and delicate as the dim sum sold before Xiangmanyuan, or it has a good-looking appearance like peach blossom cake, and the taste is even a little strange, but it is delicious! For a while, the visitor flow of Xiangmanyuan increased a lot, and some people even asked if they could order some to keep for the Chinese New Year to eat at home, or take them out to give to relatives or something.
Jiang Yu is also happy, so that she can share a lot of money during the New Year, and she can consider buying some ginseng tablets or something for Jiang An to replenish her body.
Jiang An has been studying with Wang Shaoci for the past two days, and the latter taught him to read some basic introductory books, saying that he would not be pulled off when he entered the school.
Soon, Wang Shaoci found that Jiang An was extremely smart, and he was thorough at all. As long as some words you don't know are said once, Jiang An will not make a mistake next time, and he also has some thoughts of his own when reading books, although he is still very immature and cannot be compared with the thinking of adults. But it is also much better than many people who can only read from the book, Wang Shaoci is happy in his heart, and he does not hesitate to praise himself.
Wang Wenjun also read a lot of books before he left the cabinet, although he was not proficient, but he was also outstanding among girls.
Wang Shaoci looked at Jiang An's serious reading and was fascinated - but he really looked like his aunt, I wonder if my aunt would be very happy to see Jiang An working so hard now?
Jiang Yu did take good care of this child, except for teaching, she didn't leave behind anything that a child of this age should have. It was that he saw that Jiang An's face was not very good, and asked Jiang An sideways, and the latter said with a serious face that he was sick, this disease was not easy to treat, and even his aunt didn't know what was wrong.
Wang Shaoci carefully inquired about some details, and after pondering for a while, it must be the ghost of that group of people - Jiang An is afraid that he is not sick, but poisoned!
Over the years, Wang Wenjun has not revealed Jiang An's congenital deficiencies, when she took her children home to save her relatives, Jiang An was still white and tender, how could she suddenly get a disease that could not be cured?
In other words, if you are infected with some incurable diseases, it is impossible for a child to have such a spirit and spirit in his body and bones.
After thinking about it, Wang Shaoci still didn't send a message to his family.
The movements on Rongcheng's side are getting bigger and bigger, and the people sent by the top to investigate are almost turning Rongcheng upside down, saying that they want to find out what happened to the Jiang family, and whether the Changfang is left alone. The Jiang family and the Wang family were originally in-laws, and they still needed to send someone to the Wang family to ask about this kind of matter.
If Wang Shaoci sent a letter to his family, it was very likely that some things would be exposed, and he had some guesses now, but he was not sure yet, he only knew that he should be careful.
A few days ago, Tingyu told Wang Shaoci a rumor - Wang Shaoci is interesting to Jiang Yu, but Jiang Yu is iron-faced and unmoved, so Wang Shaoci can only start from Jiang An's side, and when he heard about this rumor, he almost turned his back on it, his son-in-law is not interested in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is impossible to be interesting to other girls - in the Wang family, Wang Shaoci is recognized as a nerd.
Wang Shaoci couldn't cry or laugh. It's also a good thing to think about it, so that no one doubts his motives for being good to Jiang An - it's just to see that the girl's family is pitiful with the child, and the things this girl makes suit his appetite and help him with one or two.
Today, Jiang Yu got off work and went to Wang's house to pick up Jiang An with beef tongue cakes. When she arrived, Jiang An was reciting a book, listening to the rain and asking Jiang Yu to sit in the living room and drink a cup of tea to warm up her body first, it was freezing cold.
She sat in the hall and looked at the furnishings.
I came to Wang's house in a hurry a few times before, and I didn't look at it carefully, but now I look at it, Wang Shaoci is really a hidden "rich second generation", and the vase ornaments in the hall are very valuable things at a glance - Jiang Yu doesn't understand that. The calligraphy and paintings hanging have exactly the same signature below - it is estimated that he wrote and painted by himself, I don't know about antiques, calligraphy and painting have received modern education, and it can also be seen that Wang Shaoci's painting is worth a lot of money when it is sold out.
β¦β¦ Forget it, she's a poor bastard, whatever she looks at now is worth anything in her eyes.
After a while, Wang Shaoci took Jiang An to the main hall. As soon as Jiang An saw Jiang Yu, he ran over and hugged her arm, and the child became more and more clingy. Jiang Yu and Wang Shaoci glanced at each other, with a helpless smile in each other's eyes, she saluted and thanked Wang Shaoci, "Thank you Wang Gongzi for watching An An for me these days." β
