Chapter 100: Chongyang Cake

After Gu Tingwen sent her to the hospital, he didn't wait long before leaving for some reason. When Ren Yan and Baird went out of the office, the assistant nurse brought a piece of letter paper, which was his explanation.

The beginning is "seeing the word is like meeting", and the end is embellished with his name; The handwriting was flamboyant and vigorous, which was completely different from his serious and serious explanations, and Ren Yan was laughing at his almost rigid observance.

"Tingwen, you're a slippery man!"

Bairdhu stroked two golden goatees under his chin, and gave birth to a sentence of emotion, with a bit of authentic Beijing charm, but with a Western accent, which is very interesting.

Ren Yan pondered, what he was going to say was about cunning?

"He said he could help me with my dreams, and in exchange I had to be his personal doctor. So now I'm his doctor, assistant, housekeeper and advisor, ready to help! ”

Baird thought for a moment and added, "And there's no salary." ”

This is almost the opposite of what Gu Tingwen said about his friend, Ren Yanhao didn't understand the meaning of his words, and listened to him continue to say.

Baird stood by a window: "Once such a man launches a love offensive against you, you are powerless; So an honest and reliable man like me has to be ignored, how pitiful. ”

Ren Yan smiled.

He exaggerated a gesture on his chest: "This beautiful girl, really don't think about me?" ”

This is, what friend? Ren Yan couldn't cry or laugh.

Baird also laughed, and handed it to her with an extra rose in his hand behind his back: "As my abrupt gift of reparation, I hope you can be happy at any time, it will be conducive to your recovery, and I look forward to the next time we meet!" ”

Next time, how much will she recover? Ren Yan was inevitably anxious, but Baird repeatedly warned that impatience was a taboo for recuperation.

Like her hanging soup, not only could the fresh alcohol not enter the soup, but also lost the original taste of the ingredients.

Is it that as a friend of Gu Tingwen, he has studied cooking skills?

In addition, it seems that Liang Fu and Ye Songqu, as well as Zhang Yuenian and Yang Song'an, are all lively and general, not to mention Cheng Shi'an, is that person so picky about making friends?

Ren Yan pondered these things, and was sitting on the bench in the back kitchen of the Pheasant Hall, watching the newly recruited apprentices in the hall being taught basic skills by the masters; There was a clanging sound on the board, and her heart was pounding.

After looking at it for a long time, it was inevitable that her head would get dizzy, so she thought wildly, trying to get rid of this wave of uncomfortable energy.

There are many apprentices who come to Hongpheasant Hall to apply for jobs, Du Liren is picky, and several masters on the white case are the same, and there are very few apprentices who can be accepted, so they are still in the market every day.

After Xiao Tong left today, two more masters were hired in the hall, and Ren Yan had seen them in the club, both of whom were top-notch in the white case.

Now that people are taking office, they naturally have to find apprentices to help, and they are no longer looking for handymen.

When Ren Yanda came back from the hospital, he was looking at the kitchen with his family, and a phone call from the shopkeeper called him to go and touch, after all, they were all newcomers, and they were not afraid of gossiping.

Leaving the phone, she was very happy, which shows that people don't treat her as an outsider! Besides, maybe it takes two more days to get used to the back kitchen, and the psychological problems can be good?

She ran into the Pheasant Hall.

Hongpheasant Hall is now on the cusp, but the guests are not affected much, and there are more people who enter the restaurant to see the excitement, so Master Du, as the top brand, is even more busy with his feet on the ground, how can he have the time to stare at people to accept apprentices.

He doesn't meddle in his own affairs, he is always happy, and he sits in the back kitchen, where he is comfortable.

I couldn't bear to ask the two new masters for teaching, and I passed the hurdles in my heart mile by mile; I couldn't hold it back, so I took two more breaths outside and came in, and Baird's instructions were all on my heels.

She was fighting with herself.

The two masters looked strange at first, but they didn't pay much attention to it later. Girl, there are always inconvenient times, and God can't take care of it!

In this way, until the end of the apprenticeship examination, Master He accepted two clever handymen, and Master Deng asked for a shrewd apprentice, and picked a good day to perform the master and apprentice gift, and there are newcomers here in the white case!

The shopkeeper Wen Xin'er Lele came here, enthusiastically admonished people, said enough and turned around and smiled at Ren Yan: "You are also in a hurry, how sooner or later you become a master, we will also recruit apprentices for you, recruit female apprentices!" ”

This feeling is good!

Originally, women and gentlemen are different in addition to their appearances and bodies, where else can't, who is missing something?

Because of the wedding banquet turmoil, she didn't catch up with the end of the month yesterday, and lost the opportunity to pull up another layer.

Ren Yan grinned: "Thank you, for your words, if you don't eat or drink, I have to be angry!" ”

Everyone laughed.

In the bustle of the house, there is always someone who doesn't deal with people, and someone outside interjects: "A woman makes a lot of trouble and stabs Lou Zi in the sky, who can stop living again?" ”

The little girl who didn't like it was just that ancestor, no one wanted to provoke Du Liren, looked at each other and laughed, and the excitement was ready to disperse, but he didn't plan to let go of Ren Yan.

"I heard you're sick?"

Ren Yan's heart was sudden, and he smiled reluctantly: "Ah, it's hurtful, Uncle Xie is worried." ”

Du Liren sneered: "I'm afraid it's not as simple as hurting the wind, a guest said that you went to the hospital to see a foreign doctor in the first half of the morning, and you fell ill, and you were scared when you saw the kitchen cooking utensils, so you can't even carry a knife!" ”

No, he inquired clearly, and didn't accuse her with any anger, after all, for a cook, this is already a big mistake.

If you can't lift a knife or wield a shovel, according to his meaning, it's best to leave Hongpheasant Hall today, get married and have children, and don't go out.

As soon as the words came out, the whole hall stared at Ren Yan.

The shopkeeper's face also sank: "Master Du, this is not something to say." ”

Du Liren stared at Ren Yan: "The shopkeeper may wish to ask!" ”

Master He interjected: "Master Du's words are serious, isn't it a joke that the cook can't see the kitchen, Miss Ren has been sitting here for an afternoon, where can I see it?" ”

He said this for the sake of acquaintance, but Ren Yan ran into the courtyard in the afternoon, and he also muttered in his heart, don't be true, right?

The shopkeeper's eyes finally fell on her.

Ren Yan didn't admit it: "I had a wind, I saw a foreign doctor, not a major symptom, and I don't understand what Du Shibo said." ”

Du Liren pressed step by step: "So I wronged you?" In this way, you didn't come to the apprenticeship exam yesterday, in front of these uncles and uncles, let's make up for it today! ”

When the words came here, she was put in the air and couldn't get down, refused to refuse, she didn't have a good life.

A room full of eyes was on her.

She smiled: "Nacheng, seeing that I have arrived in Chongyang, I will make Chongyang cake today, and I will ask my uncles and uncles for advice." ”

With that, he turned around and walked towards the board.

The closer she got, the more trembling her body became, and her mind was full of people shouting and crying on the day of the wedding banquet, and she dug her nails into the flesh of her palm.

Rinse your hands in a basin of water and melt away the blood that seeps out.

She gritted her teeth and comforted herself, fortunately, the Chongyang cake was not a difficult snack to make, and it was steamed in a cage drawer.

The bamboo blade split the old pumpkin and chopped it into small pieces, steamed it into a puree in the cage drawer, and the simple work called her to do the embarrassment, and the blade cut the nail cover several times, and there were locks of knife marks.

Fortunately, she lowered her head and moved quickly, and no one could see the strangeness inside.

When steaming the pumpkin, the japonica rice noodles in the porcelain bowl were mixed with Jiang rice flour and powdered sugar, and oil and water were added to knead them into loose dough, which was divided into three parts and left to wake up.

The pumpkin puree is moved down to cool and pressed into a mushroom, and the fermented flour water is mixed into a thick mushroom pile; On the other side, spread the dough on a flat dish brushed with oil, spread a layer of pumpkin puree, and add another layer of dough to spread out.

The flattened dough is divided into six parts, and each part is rolled at both ends to form a beautiful Ruyi roll.

The rest of the dough is fried red bean paste, a piece of twelve yellow and red Ruyi, put in the cage drawer to re-steam a cup of tea.

When the pot is over, you need to sprinkle the Ruyi roll with shredded red and green preserved fruits, various dried fruits and cold fruits, and chopped osmanthus flowers.

The plate is full of beautiful and bright Ruyi, red, gold and green, all of which are festive, and you can smell the fresh fragrance and sweetness before you taste it.

Ren Yan wiped the sweat behind the people's back, looked at the weak people and stepped forward with the plate: "The dogwood fruit will still be half red and half green, and it won't look good on the plate, so I'll replace it with crushed red dates." Fortunately, there is a saying in "Miscellaneous Notes of the Year" that Chongyang is still eating cakes, and it is a big deal to use dates, and I wish you all uncles and uncles to climb high step by step! ”

The dim sum looks good, and the meaning is even better. Chongyang has not arrived, even if it is the little bit of heart of the younger generation, not to mention that people are not unable to enter the kitchen.

Gossip laughed it off.

Du Liren made a cold face like a blue crab, didn't take the pastry, and brushed his sleeves away.

Ren Yan earned a name for himself, and the excitement ended, and everyone was busy with their own work.

Because she asked the shopkeeper to take a big vacation, no one came to trouble, and naturally no one asked where she went, but she gave it cheaply.

The little girl rushed out of the back kitchen in a hurry, found a secluded corner in the courtyard and squatted under the tree, turning over the river and the sea, and vomiting was not good.

Her mind was clockwork, and the shaft stirred her, and the world would spin when she made pastries, and if it was too late, she would have to fall to the ground.

Don't talk about Du Liren at that time, but anyone with eyes will know that she, a female chef, is completely blind.

Cooks can't lift knives, literati can't hold pens, soldiers can't carry guns, can there still be a way in this world?

Fortunately, everything told her to endure it.

Ren Yan vomited clean, and staggered to his feet with the help of the tree trunk.

can't go on like this anymore, call Du Liren back to clench his palms, how sooner or later will she be able to turn out his Five Finger Mountain? She has to go up, she has to become a master on an equal footing with him!

No, you have to go up, you have to stand where he is looking.

Otherwise, she can only be forced into a dark corner for the rest of her life, surviving and letting herself take care of it.

She is not for fame, nor for profit, she just wants to be free, the freedom of a female chef.

Ren Yan held on to the tree, gritted his teeth and pondered his thoughts, he might as well reach out behind his back and gently pat her back, and asked, "Do you have a body?" ”

She shuddered and turned around: "Mr. Cheng!" ”

Cheng Shi'an looked at her, his eyes were full of decadence and despair, and he stood there with his hands down, his voice trembling: "With Tingwen, child? ”
