Chapter Twenty-Eight: Pancakes

The carriage galloped along the official road for three days and three nights, and the occasional village along the way was only in ruins, and this war disaster was more serious than Wen Wan had imagined, and it spread like a plague. After a few days of exhaustion, everyone turned on their backs, and the speed of the carriage gradually slowed down.

Wen Wan simply asked Lin Yuan to discuss with Gu Qingning to see if he could park the carriage in the depths of the woods on the side of the road to rest, after all, everyone had to solve the physiological problems of eating, drinking, and Lazar. The car was parked in the forest to prevent it from running into the army of Warat, and also to prevent the homeless. The knife under the carriage can be used for self-defense, but when it encounters the army, it is just an egg hitting a stone.

The convoy soon came to a halt in a dense forest beside the road, and the vigorous grass soon filled all the horses with a merry snort. Gu Qingning was still neatly dressed and graceful, and even his hair was not messy. Sometimes Wen Wan can't help but think evilly, such a handsome and dusty character doesn't know how to solve physiological problems in the past two days?

Thinking about it, maybe he felt that he was too obscene, so he hurriedly flattened his clothes and feet and coughed twice, took out a fire fold from his sleeve, and instructed Lin Yuan to set up an iron pot on the firewood pile, seeing that it was already noon, she got up the pot and prepared to cook.

Gu Qingning's housekeeper also began to distribute steamed bread and baked cakes to everyone, and the pot that went out to stir-fry in a hurry was damaged, and it didn't help for the housekeeper to beat the servant who watched the pot half to death, and now they have swallowed the steamed buns dryly for three days.

When the oil temperature is 50% hot, Wen Wan throws the patted garlic paste and the green onion into the pot, and then puts in the paper-thin bacon slices when the fragrance is fragrant, and throws the pickled sauerkraut into the pot when the oil is fried enough. The strong sour smell combined with the salty aroma of the bacon was suddenly stimulated and spread.

Gu Qingning suddenly felt that the steamed bun in his hand was a little dry and he couldn't swallow it, Wen Wan slowly poured water into the pot, and Lin Yuan had already stood next to her and handed her the reconciled basin. She took the basin and put it on the edge of the pot, pulled down a small lump of dough, and quickly pulled out a small piece of dough with both hands, and bent hundreds of thin and long white threads and threw them into the pot.

Seeing that there were wild mushrooms and tender toons in the forest, she also grabbed a handful and threw them into the pot to increase the fragrance, and then sprinkled some salt and pepper, and a pot of sauerkraut bacon noodles was made.

The sour and salty aroma of the noodles is mixed with the fresh fragrance of wild mushrooms, the strange fragrance of toon wafts out far away, the snow-white noodles are paired with the yellow of sauerkraut, the green of toon onion and onion, and the red of bacon is pleasing to the eye.

At this time, not only Gu Qingning felt that the steamed buns couldn't swallow it, but even the servants snorted and worried about the mixed steamed buns.

"Fuck, it smells so good!" The servant cursed in his mouth, and sang loudly in his belly about the empty city plan.

"Alas, our sister-in-law's craftsmanship is far worse than this! I wonder if they can finish eating? "Sister-in-law Liu is the cook that Gu Fu has brought along the way, but she is a little sloppy and lazy.

Steward Gu listened to everyone's saliva, and looked over there frequently, "Eat yours!" ”

"Auntie, hungry!" Yuanbao, who hadn't eaten a hot meal for a few days, got out of the carriage when he smelled it, hugged his gentle legs tightly and sniffed incessantly. Wen Wan looked helpless when she saw him, but she didn't stop in her hands, and quickly fished out two large bowls of noodles for Lin Yuan, and asked him to take her son to the side to eat.

The father and son ate with a snorting sound, and their mouths kept calling for deliciousness, and the chewy noodles absorbed the thick juice, easily conquering the taste buds of the three. It doesn't take half a moment for a bowl of noodles to be eaten cleanly.

When Lin Yuan went to add a second bowl, Wen Fusheng's family and Zhenniang's family also ate noodles, their stomachs were warm, and their faces were ruddy and spirited.

Looking at Lin Yuan who was snoring, Gu Qingning's servants could only keep swallowing their saliva, and their stomachs kept "cooing", and they were even hungrier. Wen Wan filled her own bowl, seeing that there was still some left in the pot, Lala Lin Yuan's sleeve asked him to send it to the other side, a group of people stared at them like hungry wolves, she really couldn't eat it.

After eating and drinking, the crowd started to hit the road again. There were more and more displaced people along the way, and from time to time a wealthy convoy hurriedly passed by them. After two days, Gu Qingning's convoy stopped in the forest as usual, Wen Wan got out of the car to cook as usual, and the housekeeper of the Gu Mansion ran over and bowed his hand to Wen Wan.

"Mrs. Lin, that, can you cook the food for us here? This is the silver given by our young master," the butler bowed and smiled kindly.

Wen Wan frowned and could only reluctantly respond, she had to be escorted all the way, and there was really no reason to push back. However, her stomach for more than five months, thirty or forty people could not cook it really hard, so she asked the housekeeper to divide her with a few mothers-in-law.

The housekeeper hurriedly nodded and agreed, and pushed a piece of silver into Wen Wan's hand, which is easy to do! If it's not for the gentle cooking, it's really tempting, even the cooks and guys have everything.

The young master and the young master couldn't bear the bitterness of sleeping in the open, and they couldn't eat for a few days, but they ate the noodles cooked by this woman that day, and the bowl was as clean as washing.

Because of the large number of people, Wen Wan chose the simplest and easiest food to make - pancakes and fruits. She instructed the two strong mothers-in-law who had been given to her to chop wood and make a fire, and asked her eldest brother to go to the forest to catch a pheasant.

Lin Yuan still kneaded the dough as usual, because he had great strength, and after long-term cooperation with her, the kneading dough was smooth.

Wen Wan climbed into the carriage and took out some eggs, sour cowpeas, diced radish, and yellow sauce. When the dough is well risen, then unhurriedly roll out boxy slices with a rolling pin, throw them into the oil pan and fry them to make a fragrant salty and crispy crispy skin.

There were no ham sausages here, so she had to hit the pheasant with her idea, roll up her sleeves and cut the cooked chicken into long strips, marinate it, coat it with flour and throw it into the pan and fry it into a golden and crispy chicken fillet. Then I took out the round iron plate for barbecue and began to scoop the batter on it.

She spread the batter evenly with a small wooden clipper, and when the batter was dry, she immediately beat an egg and spread it out, felt that the fire was bigger, and asked her mother-in-law to pull off a few sticks of firewood, and then sprinkled some cucumber shreds, sour cowpea dices, chicken fillets and chopped green onions on the cake surface in turn.

I saw that she quickly spread the yellow sauce on top of each other with both hands, and unhurriedly put in two pieces of crispy crust to fold the cake into a rectangle.

The two mothers-in-law stretched their necks, looked at her skillful skills, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Lin Niangzi's craftsmanship is so good!" It's so fragrant. ”

Even the food they ate in the house in the past was not as particular as this cake, looking at this burnt yellow and emerald green color, it made people's eyes reluctant to put it.

Lin Yuan sat on the side and couldn't help laughing, "That's, wait for you to eat it in your mouth, the crispy filling is fresh, then it's called a fragrant!" ”

Wen Wan only lowered her head and used a knife to cut the cake in half from the middle before beckoning Lin Yuan, "Okay." ”

Everyone cheered, scrambled to squeeze in front of Wen Wan, and waited for her to make a cake. The housekeeper relied on his dominating aura and quickly grabbed two cakes to invite credit.

Her technique was very fast, and in less time than a pillar of incense, everyone ate the cake.

Gu Qingning took the hot and dusty thing in the housekeeper's hand, "I paid for it, and she gave us this?" ”

The housekeeper smiled flatteringly, "It is called pancake fruit, do you want a lot of grandpa and the little grandpa to taste it first?" ”

Gu Qingning had to frown and take a bite, thinking that this bite would be enough to keep him there. The crispiness of the crust, the water spirit of the cucumber shreds, the softness of the chicken fillet, the saltiness of the sour cowpeas and the aroma of minced green onions hit the tongue coating one after another, and finally the faint sweetness of the soybean paste is blended together, which only makes people feel that their tongue can fall off deliciously.

He ate one in a hurry, and at the end he didn't forget to lick his slender fingers. Seeing that the housekeeper and his nephew were staring at him in a daze, and coughing uncomfortably, he forgot about his nephew, "Go to the woman and ask for two more loaves of bread." ”

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and then he was busy going. Yo, young master, you haven't eaten yet!
