Chapter 28: Meaty Chalcedony Rice (2)
"Agui, come here and help, I need your help now!" Shen Yiyi shouted at Li Gui.
Li Gui hurriedly ran over, looked at the large pile of bones in the dustpan, and asked, "What should I do?" ”
Shen Yiyi handed him a barrel bone and said, "Remove the meat from the bone and put it in a bowl." ”
As she spoke, she demonstrated, and in a moment she dismantled the flesh on her bones.
These bones, even if he bought them a little more expensive, didn't have much money, so what was the use of removing them? Li Gui was puzzled, and he couldn't figure out what Shen Yiyi was going to do anymore.
Because of the lack of meat, it was quite quick to dismantle, and in less than two quarters of an hour, only a pile of bare bones and a bowl of bits and pieces of meat remained.
If you dismantle thirty pounds of bones, you will get a bowl of meat, which is ...... Li Gui handed the bowl to Shen Yiyi and asked curiously, "Miss Lin, what are you going to cook here?" ”
"Chalcedony rice." Shen Yiyi said, looking at the sun outside the house, "It's not too early, I'm afraid that a guest is coming, you go to the front." ”
Li Gui answered and went to the front hall.
Shen Yiyi lit the stove, brushed the cauldron, and began to cook rice with boiled bone broth, and followed the eating habits of contemporary people, added chalcedony powder, and adjusted the taste. She stood by the side, watched the heat, and when the rice was about to be cooked, she sprinkled the minced meat she had just removed into it and spread it evenly.
She covered the pot and continued to cook, always feeling that something was missing, thinking that she would have to let Li Gui buy some small green vegetables tomorrow, and put them in after they were cooked.
When the first group of guests entered the store, when Li Gui came to the kitchen to inform Shen Yiyi, he was just in time for the chalcedony rice to start the pot, and the house was full of bone broth and meat, so he couldn't help but sniff deeply: "Is this really chalcedony rice?" How can it be so fragrant?! ”
People in this era take big bones and rice to cook together, and in a short period of time, they can't boil the essence of big bones at all, of course, it won't be so fragrant. Shen Yiyi picked up a bowl of chalcedony rice and handed it to Li Gui: "How many guests are here?" How many bowls? ”
Li Gui stared at the chalcedony rice in the bowl, and didn't care to answer - the chalcedony rice she cooked actually had meat! It's bits and pieces of meat, but it's also meat!
"This is the meat that was just removed from the bone?" Li Gui asked.
"Yes. Don't the guests love meat, so give them a little visible meat, although it is not much, it is better than nothing. Shen Yiyi said and asked him again, "How many bowls do you want?" ”
"Give me six bowls first, and then there's more." Li Gui was not angry again, and in the face of this bowl of chalcedony rice, which only had bits and pieces of meat stars, and was bound to be called coarse food by Lao Li Tou, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely.
When Shen Yiyi was serving dinner, the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of him swallowing saliva, and said, "Want to eat?" I'll leave you a bowl later. "This is his own shop, so he can eat whatever he wants.
"Don't stay, this pot, it is estimated that there are not enough guests, and now there are more than twenty guests in front." Li Gui shook his head and forced himself to look away from the meat marrow rice.
It's just started at noon, and there are already more than 20 guests?! But the ingredients he bought were only enough to make thirty bowls! Shen Yiyi suddenly had two heads and two big, urging Li Gui to go shopping again, while he picked up the food plate and went to the front to act as the second shopkeeper.
As soon as the chalcedony rice appeared, it caused a burst of exclamations from the customers in the store-
"There's meat in this meal!"
"The rice smells of meat!"
"It smells so good! This is the most fragrant chalcedony rice I've ever had! ”
No one has ever eaten meat in chalcedony rice, and each bowl is only eighty yuan, which is so touching!
There is meat in the chalcedony rice at the North Gate Foot Shop!
Probably even Shen Yiyi herself didn't expect that the news would spread in just half an hour. Upon hearing the news, the customers came one after another, almost blocking the door of the store.
There are only 30 bowls in total, how to divide them? It takes time to boil the big bone broth, and even if Li Gui comes back from buying vegetables, he can't catch up with many bowls. But no matter how bitter Shen Yiyi was, those guests just refused to leave, and had to wait for a bowl.
"Didn't you say that the guests who came to eat at noon were in a hurry, how could they have time to wait in the store and not leave?" Shen Yiyi complained to Li Gui, happy and sad.
Li Gui was a little crying and laughing: "I heard them talking, they said that today must be because the cook is in a good mood, so they put meat in the chalcedony rice, and it will be gone tomorrow, so you must wait." ”
"Tell them that I'm in a good mood every day and that there is meat in my chalcedony rice every day!" Shen Yiyi said this, but who would have trouble with the money, and continued to boil the bone broth non-stop.
The guests have been together for a long time, and they are busy and dizzy. In order to save money, Little Pepper didn't eat out at noon, and came back in a hurry, Shen Yiyi left her in the kitchen to help and add someone to help, but Rao was like this, they were still so busy that their feet didn't touch the ground, and they couldn't wait to give birth to three heads and six arms.
------------
At noon, the sun was scorching, Cai Li circled around Hangzhou Mansion, sweating profusely, and suddenly saw a big tree on the side of the street, and hurriedly ran over. Fu Liu's hand waved, and the two servants quickly caught up, and before Cai Li, they placed a stool under the tree.
Cai Li sat down on the bench with a golden knife and began to scold his mother: "Damn, why is the weather so hot, do you want to heat Lao Tzu to death?" There is also the road of Hangzhou Mansion, how twists and turns, from yesterday to today, it is almost dizzy! ”
The two little guys hurriedly took out the fan, one left and one right, fanned him and lowered the anger.
Fuliu took out a map of Hangzhou Mansion and unfolded it to him: "Young master, don't worry, don't get dizzy, we have a detailed map." ”
Cai Li snatched the map and looked at the circle drawn with a red pen on it: "How many inns in the north of the city have we found?" ”
"The big inns have been searched, and there are only some inconspicuous inns left." Furu replied.
"You don't have to look for a small inn." Cai Li waved his hand, "I inquired in Fuyang County, when she fled, she took away a lot of furniture, not to mention a thousand taels of silver, how could she go to live in a small inn?" ”
Fuliu nodded and said, "The young master is right, then you can rest first, and we will go to the east of the city to find it later." ”
After Fuliu finished speaking, he looked up and looked ahead, there was a dilapidated foot shop, with a broom on the door as a wine flag, but the shop was full of people and customers. Some poor men in sackcloth couldn't find a seat, so they simply held bowls and squatted on the steps outside the store to eat.
Fuliu trotted all the way over and took a look, and came back and said to Cai Li: "Young master, that shop sells chalcedony rice today, there is meat in the rice, I heard that it is very delicious, I will buy you a bowl?" ”
"Chalcedony rice?" Cai Li glared at him with disgust, "Young Master, am I the one who eats chalcedony rice?" Let's go, take you to a serious restaurant for dinner! ”
-------------------
The customers of the foot shop left and came, Li Gui was busy and couldn't tell the east and west, north and south, he never knew that there were so many people in the north gate, no wonder others said that their store occupied a treasure of feng shui, no wonder so many people wanted to sell their shop.
