Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao cried and laughed, "This is too exaggerated!" So many people? ”

Mei Niang smiled and pulled her into the kitchen, took the apron and put it on her head.

"This lunch is not only for us, but also for the girls in the building!"

Shen Ruoxiao was shocked, her little face twitched twice, and she looked at Meiniang in disbelief.

"Mei Niang, do you eat with the girls?"

"Naturally," Mei Niang put on an apron on herself, "Do you still have another small stove?" ”

Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao was in admiration, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to do a big job.

No wonder Mei Niang's business is doing well, treating employees so well, and the leadership charm is simply bursting.

Shen Ruoxiao looked at Mei Niang's eyes with a hint of admiration.

Then, with a wave of her hand, she summoned the people who were busy.

"Come here, can you tell me what ingredients you have sorted out?"

A lady in charge of the back kitchen greeted her and bowed.

"Miss Shen, the old slave has prepared some beef and chicken, as well as some shrimp, calla lilies and the like, I wonder what materials the girl wants to use?"

Shen Ruoxiao was worried while listening to the cook's details.

With so many people, what should they do to eat?

Thinking about it, she caught a glimpse of the greens piled under the kitchen counter.

The greens are tender and green, fresh, and all of them are very lush.

Her eyes lit up, and she pushed the water soda on the side, "Water so, you go buy some big ingredients and come back!" ”

Shui Su was puzzled, but seeing Shen Ruoxiao's eyes shining, she nodded with a question.

"Yes, miss."

After Shui Su left, Shen Ruoxiao ran to the side of the vegetables with the hem of her skirt and squatted down.

"Can all these vegetables be washed?"

"Okay," the cook nodded, rolled up her sleeves, and lifted all the bags of vegetables, "Is that enough?" ”

Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao was full of black lines, "Enough is enough!" ”

So much, is it for the pigs?

Cooking a big pot of dishes one by one, she must not be tired to death!

"Cauldron? Chafing dish? Shen Ruoxiao muttered to himself.

The Meiniang on the side saw Shen Ruoxiao's face worried and happy, and suddenly became curious.

"Miss Shen, what cauldron are you talking about?"

Shen Ruoxiao raised her eyebrows and smiled, she pointed to the vegetables in front of her, and winked at Meiniang.

"Why don't we eat spicy hot pot! It's just a lot of people! ”

"Spicy hot pot?" Mei Niang was stunned for a moment and came back to her senses, "What is a spicy hot pot?" ”

Shen Ruoxiao smiled silently, turned around and threw himself into the preparations.

She mixed the cleaned beef with the chicken and chopped it into minced pieces.

Then he beat the eggs, mixed the flour, and kneaded the beef and chicken together.

Then keep beating and rubbing, the technique is like playing tai chi.

The servants on the side were stunned, and they were all attracted by Shen Ruoxiao for a while.

"Miss Shen, what are you doing here? Is there any effect on hammering these meats all the time? ”

In a word, Shen Ruoxiao raised his eyes to look at the cook, and the expression of appreciation in his eyes was full.

"Yes, beating it like this can make the meat more elastic and the taste smoother."

As she spoke, she had already kneaded the meat in her hand into a grape-sized meatball, "Would you like to try it?" ”

"Is that okay?"

Seeing this, the cook followed her example and began to rub the meatballs, and after a while, the meatballs lay round on the board one by one.

Shen Ruoxiao took some live shrimp again, peeled some calla lilies, chopped them, hooked some starch, and made shrimp slippery.

That's not enough!

Her dark eyes searched everywhere, and Meiniang couldn't intervene at all on the side, so she had to look at her with a smile.

"Miss Shen, if you need something, just say, as long as it's the kitchen, someone will help you get it."

Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao smiled lightly, but she still raised her fingers, "It's best to have fried tofu, green vegetables, potatoes, mushrooms, radishes, etc. in the hot pot." ”

Mei Niang listened to Shen Ruoxiao's incessant chatter, and hurriedly asked people to write it down, and then she picked up the list and looked at it, and her brows couldn't help frowning together.

"What is tofu with oil? We only have tofu skin here. ”

"Tofu skin is tofu skin, almost!"

After confessing, Shen Ruoxiao raised his hand to pull up the green silk on the back of his head and pinned it to the top of his head with a hosta.

"Prepare your stuff and start making the soup base now,"

As she spoke, she picked up a cow bone with one hand, found a large stew pot, and boiled it with ingredients and water before submerging the whole bone into the water.

"Mei Niang, do you have tahini here?"

Mei Niang thought about it, there should be, she walked to the spice cabinet and took a can to Shen Ruoxiao.

"Miss Shen, see if you want this?"

As soon as the lid was lifted, Shen Ruoxiao looked at Mei Niang suspiciously, "Mei Niang, you don't know how to divide the seasoning, this is obviously soybean sauce!" ”

Mei Niang smiled awkwardly and hurriedly closed the lid, "Miss Shen, you also know that Mei Niang is an old bustard in a green building, and she doesn't go into the kitchen much on weekdays, so ......"

Shen Ruoxiao's steamed bun had black lines, she was speechless, and she shook her head. Chinese bar

"Mei Niang, you're still waiting to eat."

As she spoke, Shen Ruoxiao had already walked to the spice cabinet by herself, looked at all the spices in the cabinet door, and then took out what she wanted.

At this time, Shui Su bought a lot of ingredients and just came back, "Miss, what you want." ”

"Just in time!"

As he spoke, Shui Su put the big ingredients in Shen Ruoxiao's hand, and then sniffed vigorously.

"It smells so good!"

At this time, the soup base has been roughly boiled, and the whole kitchen is filled with a rich bone fragrance, and the spicy and fragrant hot pot soup base of a country is baked.

The fragrance was overflowing, and it had already drifted into the backyard with the breeze, and the girls who were training in the backyard stopped their movements one by one.

"What does it smell like? So fragrant? ”

"Yes, I can smell it from afar, but it's not like it is today."

After a while, all the girls groped towards the back kitchen in groups of three or five.

But when they arrived at the door, they couldn't move, "Mei Niang is also here, don't let her find out that we haven't practiced." ”

As she spoke, the girls dodged by the door, watching secretly, and from time to time someone had a rumbling stomach.

In this matter, Shen Ruoxiao Yuguang had already seen the girls' movements clearly, she stared at a big pot of soup, and calculated in her heart.

There are so many girls in the Spring House, you have to get some staple food!

Thinking about it, Shen Ruoxiao took out a large basin of flour, mixed it with water, kneaded it well, rolled it into a thin dough, wrapped some buns and steamed it in the drawer.

"Trouble the cook, make the fire more vigorous."

"Good!" The cook nodded, and added a few sticks of firewood to the earthen stove.

After a while, the firewood was crackling, and a faint sweet smell slowly wafted out of the steamer.

Mei Niang sniffed her nose, moved her feet involuntarily, and in a moment she came to the steamer.

"Miss Shen, it's so fragrant, I feel very delicious when I smell it."

As she spoke, her hand had already reached out to the steamer, and she was about to open the lid a crack, but she was held down by Shen Ruoxiao.

"Be careful, this water vapor is very hot, if you accidentally get burned, then you feel that you have made up for it."

Hearing this, Mei Niang retracted her hand in horror and wiped it on her apron.

"Miss Shen reminded that Meiniang was in a hurry."

Shen Ruoxiao shook his head helplessly, chuckling at the corner of his mouth, "I'll come!" ”

She found two towels, poured cold water on them, wrung them out, wrapped them on both sides of the steamer, and served the buns along with the steamer.

Then, she set up a stone pot with a charcoal stove underneath.

When she returned to the kitchen, she chopped a piece of pork tenderloin, had her chef cut it into thin slices, and then marinated it with the dipping sauce she had bought from the soy.

After sprinkling the green onions, the bottom of the stone pot was cuffed, and while it was baking, she removed the honey, and the brush brushed on the pork loin side by side.

The more she looked, the more she couldn't help it, the corners of her mouth licked involuntarily, and her saliva moistened her entire lips.

"Miss Shen, what kind of dish is this?"

"Honey, roast pork in sauce!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the hot oil made a ziz sound, and the pork was roasted until it was tender and crispy.

Shen Ruoxiao put down the brush, put the dishes away, and said to Mei Niang: "Okay, Mei Niang, you can call the girls over and prepare for dinner." ”

Hearing this, Mei Niang closed her mouth with a smile, shook her feather fan, and shouted towards the inner courtyard.

"Girls, it's time to eat!"

This voice, without a few years of experience, ordinary people can't shout it.

Almost at the same time, the girls gathered in the hall next to the kitchen and sat around the dining table.

"Mei Niang, what are you eating today? Why does it smell so good? ”

Mei Niang pouted at the table, "It's the things on the table, Mei Niang, it's the first time I've eaten it." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Mei Niang seemed to think of something, and her face immediately sank.

"Why are you here so soon, I haven't seen it so fast on weekdays!"

Hearing this, the girls looked at each other, lowered their heads, and did not say a word, except that their eyes glanced at the table from time to time.

Seeing this, Shen Ruoxiao deliberately opened the steamers one by one, and the hot pot soup base was also placed in the center of the table, and a small stove was placed below to add heat.

"Oh, it's rare to be happy, Meiniang don't care so much, let's go!"

The girls cast grateful glances, and then surrounded Meiniang with a coquettish face.

"Mei Niang, for Miss Shen's sake, spare us this time!"

"Yes, Meiniang loves us the most, so don't worry about it."

As she spoke, a girl hurriedly handed a pair of chopsticks to Mei Niang's hand, "Quick, Mei Niang, try it." ”

Hearing this, Mei Niang covered her saliva, her face softened slightly, she lifted her chopsticks and swiped lightly, and the bun skin was cut open.

After the skin of the bun is opened, a refreshing fragrance escapes from the slit that has been cut.

It is a unique aroma that mixes the aroma of meat, vegetables, star anise and other spices.

Just smelling it, it made everyone's mouth flutter, and everyone's eyes were glued to the big bun.

"Mei Niang, this bun is so chic, white and tender, and it is wrapped in so many traps."

"Yes, the fragrance is stronger than the bun shop at the door."

Gollum, Gollum!

The sound of swallowing saliva continued, and the girls kept squirming in their throats and licking their tongues.

"Mei Niang, can you eat it?"
