Chapter 118 The Little Lady and the Doctor
Because Liu Erlang was in a hurry to leave, Banniang thought that there was really nothing to give at home, so she asked Ah Lan to find Wu's, and put the pickled duck eggs, Songhua eggs and soaked various wishful dishes, as well as the green bean sprouts of soil cultivation, and asked Liu Erlang to take them back, and in the New Year, add some vegetables to the family, and because Shiro had to accompany Mr. Fan at home, Banniang had the heart to go and see it in person, but she couldn't leave, so she asked Wulang to follow Liu Erlang to see the furniture.
Only Gorou didn't understand, and when he went, he just counted the numbers, and probably just looked at the situation.
Banniang sent Liu Erge and Wulang out, and then went to the store, although it was still early, the guys got a lot of rewards from the guests yesterday, and today they were all full of energy, when Banniang arrived, the whole store still had a wolf appearance last night, the window was almost bright, and it was hard to find some green potted plants, every leaf was wiped verdant and shiny, because Lu Siniang made a lot of dried flowers, and was also asked by Banniang a lot, and put it in an inconspicuous place, so although it was winter, the store was full of the fragrance of flowers.
Banniang doesn't like burning incense, which is also an outlier in the Great Song Kingdom, where all kinds of incense are popular.
The original fragrance of the petals, how can the incense be compared?
In fact, in her previous life, her grandmother had studied the production of spices in ancient times, so Banniang also knew a little, and occasionally tried to make two or three kinds, but she just sent Lu Siniang and Wu Sanniang to play, but she never used it herself.
She also thought that by next spring, she would collect flower petals and make some essential oils, but it is estimated that she may not have time at that time.
Stepping into the store, I greeted the guys, only to hear that Lu Seventeen had arrived early in the morning, I didn't expect him to be quite dedicated, Banniang asked the guys if they had breakfast, and then went to the backyard to find Lu Seventeen to talk.
A good night's sleep. Lu Seventeen was in good spirits and was having breakfast there with Cang'er.
Banniang Qi said: "Why are you eating at this time?" ”
Cang Er was a little embarrassed, and said: "I only found out last night that I forgot to bring a change of clothes, no, I went to Lufu early this morning." Lu Qiqi came with me, that's why I eat, Banniang, do you want to eat some with us? ”
Banniang ate at home, in fact, she was not hungry, and when she thought that the guests were gone at noon, they were idle, and it was probably past the time to eat at noon, so she was not hungry and panicked? He also took two hot vegetarian stuffed buns and stuffed them into his mouth, while muttering: "Did you see the lotus root I asked Xu Shisan to send in the morning?" I'll head to the kitchen and make two new dishes. ”
The two of them knew about it, and Lu Qiqi asked with a smile: "Where did you get the lotus root?" My aunt loves this, so I'll bring two back when I get back. ”
Banniang said in her heart that you can make something delicious when you bring it back, so she said: "It's a waste of raw lotus root that you bring back, it's not that you don't believe in the cook in your house, but it's definitely not as good as what I made, and when I turn around and get it done, you can ask the guy to send some back in the afternoon." ”
Lu Qiyi thought about it too. And he followed her.
Banniang ate two vegetarian buns, and when she went to the kitchen, she saw that the kitchen was also clean and tidy, the masters and apprentices were all busy in an orderly manner, and the mothers-in-law of several helpers by the well were also talking and laughing and washing the dishes.
Banniang told me a few words in the past, if every vegetable leaf must be washed, I got a guarantee, and then I went to the stove.
Banniang ordered the master Fu Lao Wang to be the head chef, he was in charge of stir-frying, and the whole kitchen was under his control, seeing Banniang, Lao Wang greeted Banniang while ordering everyone: "Miss Ba, why did you come so early?" ”
Banniang smiled: "I'm thinking about it, let's take a look, the dishes are almost ready?" ”
Lao Wang said: "It's almost the same, the vegetables I personally went to the vegetable market this morning are all fresh, by the way, Miss Eight, what are you going to do with the two baskets of lotus root you asked your coachman to send?" ”
Banniang smiled: "This lotus root is expensive, and there are a lot of dishes that can be made......"
Before the words were finished, Lao Wang Qi said: "In addition to that Yunying rice, in the big family, there are only slices that have been eaten in the winter, and this lotus root can still be cooked?" ”
Ordinary people, it is true that the lotus root is eaten as a fruit, the lotus root is cold to eat, but it is cooked, but it is a good tonic for winter, it can be wrapped in meat paste to make lotus root clips, can be made lotus root glutinous rice, can be stewed with pork ribs, can be fried sweet and sour lotus, can also be fried with yam fungus, can also be chopped into meat to make lotus root balls.
Banniang smiled: "Naturally, I can do it, but unfortunately there is only this, and it can't be supplied for a long time, so I'll make two snacks today, and all the guests who come today will give one to each table." ”
This, that's too generous, isn't it?
Lao Wang was speechless, but how the master acted was not something he could question, so he only nodded.
Banniang called two older apprentices: "Xiao Li, Xiao Han, you carry these two baskets of lotus root to the well and let a few mothers-in-law wash them, remember, don't wash them." Be sure to flush some clean. ”
Xiao Li and Xiao Han answered, and quickly carried the two baskets of fat lotus lotus outside.
Banniang also asked the remaining two elementary school apprentices, Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhang, to prepare glutinous rice and refined wheat noodles. Then I asked another master Qin, who was in charge of the red case, to choose three or four catties of good pork belly, chop the meat puree, and start to prepare.
Several masters don't know how she wants to make this lotus root, they are all born with a great love for cooking, and now it is the craft of eating, so they can't help but watch from the sidelines, so as to learn a few hands.
Banniang doesn't drive them away, they are always the ones who buy them themselves, and their income is also linked to the profitability of the store, and they are not afraid of their backlash.
Cut the lotus root slices, puree the meat, seasoning the seasoning, wrap the fine noodles, and put them into the oil pan. The uncut whole lotus root is poured with soaked glutinous rice along the lotus hole, then sealed, and boiled in a large pot.
It didn't take long for the aroma to waft in.
The temporary shopkeeper Cang Er smelled the smell, so he rubbed in: "Banniang, what are you going to prepare?" So fragrant? ”
Banniang put the last piece of lotus root into the oil pot, patted her hands, and said with a smile: "Naturally, it is a delicacy that you have not eaten, wait a while, serve the plate for you and Brother Seventeen to taste." ”
He also instructed the youngest Xiao Zhao to guard on the side, pointing to a few pieces of fried light gold lotus root that she had fished out of the oil pot before, and said: "When it becomes this color, mix it up from the pot, don't fry the color is too dark, you will be old, and don't get out of the pot for half your life." ”
Cang'er couldn't help it, twisted a piece with his hand, put it in his mouth, and tasted it carefully, there was the fragrance of meat, the cooked crisp of lotus root, and the noodles and softness. He smiled and said, "What kind of shit luck did Lu Qiqi take to please such a capable daughter-in-law of yours?" Banniang, if I were a man, it didn't matter if you were engaged or not, I would rob the family. ”
The masters and apprentices in the room laughed.
Banniang felt that it was better to reason with Cang'er than to hit the tofu by herself, so she glanced at her and went to talk to Lu Seventeen.
Cang'er grinned and followed, and pestered Banniang again: "Banniang, what about the one you said you wanted to teach me to use the calculation chip last night?" I've memorized that mantra, but I don't know what it means. ”
Banniang couldn't be entangled by her, she wanted to teach her earlier, and she would be idle earlier, it was rare for employees to have such a high enthusiasm for work, shouldn't she be happy as the boss?
went to the bar cabinet in the front hall with Cang'er, took out the calculations, put the mantra on the abacus one by one, and showed it to Cang'er: "The bead below is a number, and the bead above is a five." One up, two on two, that is, one, dial one bead below to go up, add two, dial two beads down, get three beads three counts, add three, three down five to two, then up to the next bead, down to two beads......"
Although Cang'er is different from ordinary women, people are also very smart, Banniang explained carefully, she understood, Banniang let her practice one plus one hundred first, one is so familiar with the formula, and the other is to practice finger speed.
Seeing that Cang'er understood the meaning of the formula, he left her alone to pluck the beads there, and he went to the backyard to find Lu Seventeen, who was sleeping in the house where she was resting, and the lazy bed was on the floor where she was resting: "Brother Seventeen, let me ask, I invite my whole family to dinner today, do I have to pay cash, or can I hang the account?" ”
Lu Qiqi glanced at her lazily before saying, "We don't have any accounts in the store." ”
Seeing that Banniang gritted her teeth, she rushed over to pinch him, jumped up from the bed sideways, avoided it, and said with a smile: "I said Eighth Sister, men and women can't stand it clearly, you are a famous lady, we are alone in the same room, it's not good to spread it." ”
Banniang ignored him, and was ruthless around the table, Lu Qicai smiled and said: "Yes, I will return blood today, and it is Lu Qiqi's honor for the old Taishan family to come, don't you just invite a meal, I will pay the money, and please don't worry about the little lady with her husband." ”
