Chapter 188: The Great Meal
It's just that in the evening, so many people have to eat, and they can't let Chunmiao and Nannan be busy, and she, the host, is watching and enjoying the leisure on the side, which is too much, so Mu Ran Ran turned around and went to the kitchen, thinking that she should help make some dishes.
But she didn't want to, when she arrived at the kitchen, she found Chunmiao and Nannan's mother and daughter standing there dumbfounded, and they didn't react for a long time, which made Mu Ran strange.
"Chunmiao, Nannan, what's wrong with you two?"
She raised her hand and dangled it in front of the eyes of the mother and daughter, finally sobering them both from their distractions.
"That, that, Dye Niang."
Li Chunmiao swallowed her saliva, and stammered a little when she spoke, she pointed to the ingredients that had just been moved into the kitchen, but she didn't finish her words.
At this time, Mu Ran noticed that the kitchen was full of various ingredients, and when she looked at these ingredients, she was also dumbfounded.
Compared with Nangong Chuli, this Su Chen is even more defeated.
Look at these ingredients, what kind of ingredients they are.
Here are bird's nests, snow clams, white truffles, money and fierce fish, bear's paws, elephant pulls, venison, leopard fetus, rhino tail, and deer tendons.
Over there are shark fins, large black cucumbers, fish maw, fish bones, abalone, seals, pike, and baby fish.
In the middle are red swallows, flying dragon hazel pheasants, quails, swans, partridges, painted finch, turtle doves, and red-headed eagles.
Then look at the white fungus, bamboo sun, donkey nest mushroom, morel mushroom, mushroom, daylily, and cloud fragrance letter in the basket.
Mu Ran Ran kept swallowing his saliva when he saw it, you know, these are all precious ingredients, or precious ingredients that money may not be able to get together.
"Aunt Dye, look at that again, that." Nan Nan was still pointing to the side.
"Also, there is something special?" Mu Ran began to stutter unconsciously, can't there be anything more precious?
Thinking of this, Mu Ran opened another big bamboo basket, and when she opened it, she was suddenly startled, this is a whole complete tiger, it seems that an arrow pierces the throat, and the whole tiger skin is good, but it is really rare.
Even Gu Tassel, who followed up later, drooled.
"Dyeing, I don't ask for anything else, just this tiger bone, can you leave it to me?"
Tiger bones are a rare medicinal herb.
"No problem, the tiger bone will be for you."
Mu Ran covered her pounding heart, feeling that this surprise was too big today.
"Can I ask for a bear paw tonight?"
Nangong Chuli was also shocked when he saw the pile of precious ingredients, not that he felt how strange the things were, but that he felt that a person like Da Bingshan would send them over with such a big hand, it was the first time, the first time.
Especially if this is a woman, if this spreads, I am afraid that it will break the jaws of many people, and right now, he is one of them.
Of course, Mu Ran couldn't understand his thoughts, she thought about it on another level, and felt that Su Chen was planning to tempt her son with sugar-coated cannonballs.
Therefore, she was very happy, and she didn't feel that she was valued by Su Chen at all, but felt that the other party was too scheming, and it was really hateful to use such a means to snatch her son from her.
"Okay, Nangong Chuli, I'll stew this bear's paw tonight."
After responding to the request of Nangong Chuli, Mu Ran did not treat others badly, so he asked Mei Ziqian.
"Ziqian, what about you, do you have any special favorite food? If so, bring it up now. β
"Dyeing and dyeing, then I will choose white truffles, I have always heard that white truffles are rare to see, and there is no market, but now that I see it, I want to taste it." Mei Ziqian responded with a smile.
"Okay, no problem, white truffle, right?"
Mu Ran Ran very neatly moved the white truffle out of the pile of ingredients.
"Anything else? Chunmiao, Nannan, Qingqing, Wanxin, how many of you, and children, do you have anything you like to eat? β
"It's good to follow the dyeing mother, these things, I'm afraid it's the first time I've tasted them in my life, and I've never seen better ingredients than these." Li Chunmiao told the truth, and when Mu Ran heard this, he immediately had an idea.
"That's not easy, you can taste everything, tonight we will have a precious feast, all kinds of uneaten, eat all."
Mu Ran thought about it, after making these ingredients into dishes, and then placing them according to the modern buffet form, they can take whatever they want to eat when the time comes, feel free and comfortable, and do not have to worry about being wasted.
"Of course, since it's decided, then you all have to help, none of you are allowed to be empty, you have to help do things."
To make such a meal, if there are not many people, you will definitely not be able to eat until the middle of the night, so Mu Ran Ran naturally assigned tasks to everyone in order to pay attention to efficiency.
And with the help of so many people, the efficiency is naturally extremely high.
In the evening, the dishes are served one by one.
There are a number of bear's paws, freshly boiled geoducks, stewed quail with abalone, braised tiger meat, braised shark fin, bird's nest in clear soup, beef with oyster sauce, crab roe and sea cucumber, Dongpo pork, salt and pepper shrimp, shredded fish-flavored pork, white fungus in clear soup, smooth chicken balls in clear soup, rock sugar lotus seeds, etc.
There are also four dim sum made by Shen Wanxin, including black sesame almond cake, egg yolk cake, wife cake, and longan concubine cake.
This is the result of her hard work in the past few days, it is the achievement of Mu Ran after being the master's guidance, seeing the amazement in everyone's eyes, Shen Wan knew that she had succeeded, and smiled gratefully at Mu Ran at the moment.
This cold girl, suddenly smiling like a spring breeze, was more shocking than her four snacks.
Mu Ran patted Shen Wanxin on the shoulder and said, "Wanxin, you can smile more in the future, your smile is good-looking." β
"Masterβ" Shen Wanxin called out a little embarrassed, and then returned to normal: "Master, can the apprentice ask Master, did Master make any drinks suitable for summer tonight?" β
Earlier, she saw that the master was busy preparing milk, black tea bags, and fairy grass powder, which were so small and boiled, Shen Wanxin was really a little curious.
But he didn't want Mu Ran to smile and said: "Well, you'll see it later, and I'll guide you to do it in the future." β
"Master, that's not what the apprentice meant."
Shen Wan was busy explaining, but Mu Ran shook her head, signaling that she didn't have to say anything, she understood what she meant.
"Don't worry, Master won't misunderstand you, these are what Master should instruct apprentices, as long as you have the ability and you are willing to learn, Master's lifelong learning will be taught to you, it doesn't matter."
"Originally, the master's wish was to accept a few apprentices, so that these apprentices could learn the master's craft, and then the apprentices would accept the apprentices, and the apprentices' apprentices would accept the apprentices.
The more she came into contact with Shen Wanxin, the more Mu Ran admired her craftsmanship and her character, so she didn't want to hide her wish from this apprentice.
And Shen Wanxin didn't expect that Master's wish would be this, she thought about it, and finally nodded affirmatively.
"Master, the apprentice believes that Master will one day fulfill this wish."
Being able to completely selflessly pass on one's ultimate knowledge to one's apprentices is in itself something that many masters can't do.
And if Master was able to do this, he had already succeeded in the first step, so Shen Wanxin believed in this without doubt that Master would definitely succeed.
"Okay, Master accepts your auspicious words, if it really comes true in the future, Master will definitely seal a big red envelope for the apprentice."
Mu Ranran smiled and patted Shen Wanxin's shoulder, and Shen Wanxin had been with Mu Ranran for a long time, so she was naturally a little casual. "Okay, Master won't forget it then."
"Then let's go, accompany Master to get the drink Master made tonight, I'm afraid many people are like you, they are thinking about what special summer food will appear tonight."
"Especially the three little guys, but they have been waiting for a long time, even if there are so many expensive dishes in front of them, they still refrain from eating each dish, and they only eat one bite of each dish, and they don't dare to take a second bite."
Mu Ran looked in the direction of the three children, and his eyes were gentle.
Shen Wanxin didn't wait for Mu Ran to say the second time, followed Mu Ran to the kitchen, and helped her take out the drink together.
This drink is fairy grass jelly milk tea, black and translucent pieces are placed in a white porcelain cup, and under the cup is milk with the fragrance of tea, which looks particularly cool.
What's more, when it touches the cup, it is cold and cold, and the heat is inexplicably dissipated.
"Master, what kind of drink is this?"
"This is called fairy grass jelly milk tea. Make milk tea first, that is, pour milk into the pot, add sugar and black tea bags, take out the black tea bags after boiling, and let the milk tea cool for later use. This is the first step. β
While Mu Ran introduced this drink, he did not forget to point out how Shen Wanxin's fairy grass jelly milk tea was made.
"This second step, naturally is to make the fairy grass jelly, this is also simple, pour the fairy grass powder into the pot, pour in an appropriate amount of water, stir evenly and stir until there is no granularity, and then slowly pour it into the paste with boiling water, stir while pouring, and then heat it over low heat until it boils, and then pour the boiled fairy grass paste into a container, and after cooling, it becomes a paste, and cut it into small pieces with a knife for later use. At this time, the fairy grass jelly is completed. β
When he said this, Mu Ran paused, and then continued: "In the end, I will directly take the cut fairy grass jelly, pour it into the white porcelain cup in an appropriate amount, and then pour in the boiled milk tea, pour a little honey and eat, of course, like me, freeze it in ice cubes, and the effect will be more suitable for summer consumption." Come, why don't you try it and see how it tastes? β
Mu Ran handed a cup of fairy grass jelly milk tea to Shen Wanxin's hands, Shen Wanxin just picked up the spoon and took a bite, but she didn't want to, at this time Nangong Chuli ran in.
