I saw a fat figure, sensitively squeezing away all the cooks, and squeezing to Xiaocao's side with his skill. He wiped a handful of sweat from his head with his fat palm, and gasped for breath: "Little grass girl, have you finished teaching a dish?" It's so inauthentic, why don't you wait for my fat man!! ”

It's hard for him, when he got the news, he rushed over in a carriage from the Zhenyulou in Dongcheng, so anxious that he was sweating all over his face in the winter, and kept urging the people who were driving the car along the way, and he still missed one in a hurry. Chef Wang had an expression of wanting to cry without tears.

The chef who was squeezed to the side by him dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. Chef Wang is a veteran of Zhen Yu Lou, with excellent craftsmanship and is a model among chefs. Many of the cooks present had been instructed by him, and the best position was occupied by him, and he had to accept his fate.

Yu Xiaocao smiled and looked at the old acquaintance in front of him, who had gained a lot of weight, and said, "Chef Wang, it's lunch time now, is it really okay for you to leave the whole kitchen and run over by yourself?" ”

"It's better for me to run alone than for a group of people to drop off their guests! Every chef in Dongcheng's store can be in charge of his own business, no more than me, no less than me! Where is it now? Don't stop, my old king is still waiting to go back and show his hand to the guests there after learning it! "Chef Wang's temperament is still so hearty.

Yu Xiaocao pointed to the cut ingredients on the chopping board and said: "This dish is called Mao Xuewang, its soup is red and bright, spicy and fragrant, and the flavor is thick and thick, which is very suitable for launching a year ago." ”

Chef Wang looked at the chopping board, Huo! Good guys, there are a lot of ingredients! He counted: duck blood, eel, hairy tripe, fine pork belly, ham, squid, sea cucumber...... Wait, what kind of ingredient is this, why hasn't he seen it?

Yu Xiaocao glanced at the ingredients that Chef Wang had questions about, and said with a smile: "This is called yellow throat, which is a large blood vessel in the heart of pigs, cattle and other domestic animals, and it has a crisp taste and is quite nutritious. ”

This time, Yu Xiaocao made the best Mao Xuewang, and the ingredients were quite demanding. However, in a big hotel like Zhenyulou, the reserve of the kitchen is still relatively rich.

She put chili, pepper, ginger, garlic, and Zhouji's self-produced bean paste into peanut oil, stir-fried over low heat until fragrant, boiled with soup, removed the residue, and then put in monosodium glutamate, sugar, vinegar and other seasonings. Slice the prepared main and auxiliary ingredients, change the knife, and fly water, add them to the boiled red soup, boil them, put them in a container, and sprinkle them with chopped green onions. Then heat the oil, add peppercorns and chili peppers, bring out the fragrance, and quickly pour it on top.

The process looks simple, but in practice, it is not so easy. Fortunately, the chefs have at least more than ten years of cooking experience, and under the guidance of Xiaocao, they quickly mastered the heat and successfully made a pot of hairy blood. Yu Xiaocao tried the taste, after all, he was Chef Wang, and the ginger was still old and spicy, so he made it the most authentic. The other cooks have also reached the level of a master.

On Wednesday, the saliva chicken was served, and after the dishes were greatly praised by the emperor, they hurriedly came down and waited in the back kitchen. Seeing another dish coming out of the pot, he immediately said: "Let the juniors recommend our new dish today to the private room, the price is eighty-eight taels, and the limit is ten copies!" ”

Mao Xuewang, who practiced in the back kitchen, except for the one he took away, was exactly ten servings. Xiaocao looked at him with contempt - profiteers, profiteers, no traitors!

The ingredients of the husband and wife lung slices are a little troublesome, it is made of beef scalp, beef heart, beef tongue, beef tripe, and beef as the main ingredients, and is marinated. In this era, cattle are the main labor force in the field, and the farmer can raise a cow, just like the family bought a tractor in later generations, who is willing to kill the cow to eat! The beef on the market is sold by some old cattle and injured cattle who have retired from work, and it is really hard to find. Fortunately, the purchase of Zhenyulou is quite powerful, and he really ran into it.

It takes a little longer to make husband and wife lung tablets, after all, it requires a marinating process. Yu Xiaocao asked Wednesday to go up and say goodbye, don't think about eating at noon. If the emperor really wants to eat, come back in the evening!

Cooks don't care if they work hard or not, they learn that their hands are their own. They had already heard what Chef Wang said, the teenage girl in front of them was amazing, and many of the best-selling dishes in Zhenyulou were all recipes provided by her. Gee! Sure enough, cooking requires talent, you look at people, even if you start learning from the mother's womb, it may not be as long as the process of learning art, but every dish handled by people does not taste like ordinary beauty!

The cooks cheered up, watched the grass cut the beef into pieces, washed it with the beef offal (beef tongue, beef heart, beef scalp, tripe), marinated with spices, salt, peppercorn noodles and other spices, first boiled over a fierce fire and then turned to low heat, marinated until the meat was raked and not rotten, and then picked up and dried, cut into large slices, and set aside. Then with chili oil, pepper noodles, cooked sesame, cooked peanuts and other accessories to make red oil poured on it. The finished product is beautiful in color, tender in quality, fresh in taste, spicy and fragrant, and very palatable.

By the time all the cooks had learned the three dishes, it was already half of the afternoon. The dining in the Zhenyu Mansion has long been gone, although the emperor did not eat the husband and wife lung slices that he longed for, and he was satisfied with the other two dishes, leaving the Yu family, who had been trembling and not daring to move the chopsticks, and the owner of the house town left. The dishes on the table were already cold, and the kitchen was reorganized with a new table on Wednesday, and the table was barely filled.

The most pitiful thing is Yu Xiaocao, who didn't eat much in the morning, and taught on the spot at noon, and was so hungry that she almost collapsed in the afternoon. Chef Wang saw that she was pitiful, and ordered her a bowl of chicken soup and golden silk noodles, accompanied by the husband and wife lung slices that had just come out of the pot, and finally filled her stomach.

When she returned to the private room on the second floor, everyone was drinking tea and eating snacks, waiting for her to come back. Zhu Junyang saw her enter the door and hurriedly said, "Busy, right?" Have you had lunch? ”

"Is there anything to eat in the back kitchen? But when I got busy, I really forgot everything. I just ate a bowl of noodles...... "Yu Xiaocao collapsed on the chair without a figure, tired to death!"

"This ...... What is this called? The house town felt sorry for the girl, but he didn't dare to say the words of complaining about the emperor, sighed, and said, "Everyone didn't eat very much at noon, so let's continue in the evening and eat it happily!" ”

Yu Hai saw that his daughter had been busy all afternoon, and he felt strange in his heart, he shook his head and said, "Another day!" This is in a hurry, I didn't stop last night, and Cao'er was busy for half a day today. Let's meet again another day. ”

"What Brother Dahai said is that I can't think about it anymore! By the way, I heard that Zhenyulou has an event to book a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, or let's book a table of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together and be lively together? House Town proposed.

"Done!" Yu Hai pondered that there were only three people in the Fang family, if his daughter came to their house for the New Year, he would really be reluctant, if he stayed at his house, the population of the Fang family would be deserted. It's better to spend the two families together, it's lively, and everyone is happy!

When he returned home, Yu Xiaocao slept in the dark, and the next morning he got up again, and under the escort of Zhu Junyang, he went to Huangzhuang to inspect it. Winter wheat is growing well, the greenhouses are also well cared for, the new greenhouses have begun to sell out, and the others are estimated to be on the market before the year. Yu Xiaocao was completely relieved.

She came to the Zhuangzi next door with Zhu Junyang, pointed to the hill bag behind the manor, and said, "How are the flower and plant seeds you prepared?" In addition, I want to find more experienced flower farmers, and I am going to plant all kinds of flowers and plants on these hundreds of acres of sloping land. ”

Zhu Junyang quietly held her cold and soft little hand, took a breath of hot air up, and said, "Don't worry!" I promise you to do it properly! It's the seeds of this rose, you want it more urgently, the number may not be very much, at most you can plant three or four acres, right? ”

"Three or four acres is three or four acres, it's better than nothing, don't forget my seeds? It is said that there is one on the Persian side, and your ocean-going fleet should pass through there. Yu Xiaocao looked at him with trusting eyes.

In such a clear and expectant gaze, Zhu Junyang naturally would not be willing to disappoint her: "The book has been passed by the flying pigeon, and when I return to the spring season, I should be able to bring back a lot!" You little girl, you haven't been out since you were a child, how do you know what is going on in the world? ”

He knew that Xiaocao had a secret, and he didn't plan to explore her secret, just asked casually. But Yu Xiaocao was shocked in her heart, and secretly blamed herself for not being careful. She laughed a few times and said, "I saw it in a strange book that I got by chance, and I can't be sure whether it's true or not, so let's try it." Your fleet is just on the way anyway! ”

Zhu Junyang looked at the little girl's nervous expression and smiled: "Don't say that, the fleet belongs to the imperial court, and the master is just helping to take care of it." However, there are many machines in the West, I think it's very interesting, and when the fleet comes back this time, I will take you to pick what you are interested in. There is a kind of standing table clock, and when it comes to the hour, there will be a bird coming out to tell the time, I believe you will like it. When the time comes, I will give you one. ”

"You man, how can you give someone a table clock as a gift!" Yu Xiaocao saw that he was no longer entangled in the previous topic, and resumed his vivid expression, and his little white eyes kept flying over.

Zhu Junyang raised his good-looking eyebrows and asked in surprise, "Why can't you send it?" What's not to do? ”

"Send the bell, send the end! How unlucky? Yu Xiaocao's expression of "you are really an elm pimple" made Zhu Junyang can't help but want to pinch her tender little face.

"Okay, don't say send! What is yours is yours, go get it yourself, can't you? Zhu Junyang didn't know where he learned it, and his mouth became more and more able to speak.

Yu Xiaocao nodded as a matter of course, and suddenly a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, and she snickered: "Have you ever heard of three from four?" ”

"Three from four virtues? Of course! However, the lord does not have such high requirements for his daughter-in-law, huh...... That's all you need to do! "Zhu Junyang's mouth is like honey in his mouth today.
