14 Leek Box (1)
After Gu Xiancheng asked, he was stunned for a moment, not to mention Mama Zhao next to him, Fu Yan turned back with a smile: "It was brought by Chef Song, and it was divided on the road, I thought Xiao Qi gave it to you." ”
Gu Xiancheng was silent.
Fu Yan smiled: "It seems that you didn't receive it, do you want it?" ”
Before Gu Xiancheng could speak, Mama Zhao said first: "General Fu, don't joke anymore." ”
Fu Yan laughed, turned around and left, and after a while, Xiao Qi ran over.
"General, this is the cooking cake made by Chef Song today, I thought you didn't want it...... The brethren have divided some of it, and the bread is soft! It's hot, you eat it while it's hot......"
Gu Xiancheng looked at the two cakes served in front of him, his face was ugly.
"How many are there?"
Xiao Qi: "Huh? ”
"How many did Aunt Song Tian give you?"
"Oh, thirty? I didn't count, Tiangu said that it was steamed last night, and I thought I would have to walk for more than a day to eat it, but who knew that it would arrive in half a day. Xiao Qi said as he spoke, and after noticing that the general's face was getting more and more wrong, his voice became smaller and smaller.
"General, you ...... Are you not enough? ”
Gu Xiancheng raised his head and glanced at him with pity, where did Xiao Qi dare to continue talking, he left with a lot of urine, and only Gu Xiancheng and Mama Zhao were left in the tent.
Mama Zhao glanced at him and said, "It seems that this new cook does have some skills, and the soldiers like her meals very much?" ”
Gu Xiancheng picked up a cookcake and began to eat it slowly, "Her skills are indeed good." ”
Mama Zhao nodded and said tentatively: "That is the case, do you want me to arrange for her to be in charge of the evening food, although according to the rules, newcomers should start from the morning food." ”
"No, you don't." Gu Xiancheng seemed to be really hungry, so he quickly finished eating the two cooking cakes.
"Do whatever you want."
Although he said not to make an exception, his tone was obviously appreciative, he only ate two cakes, and the rest of the food on the table didn't move, Mama Zhao glanced at it and sighed.
Sweet Aunt and Fluttershy are ready to rest after dinner, and Fluttershy takes Sweet Aunt around the tent, and Sweet Aunt is very satisfied. Because they have to wake up early tomorrow morning, Sweet Aunt and Fluttershy go to bed early, and Sweet Aunt is a little tired, but for some reason, Xiaobao can't sleep for a long time, and keeps looking around curiously with two big eyes.
"Xiaobao Xiaobao, we are in a new ...... It's a place. Tiangu hesitated, feeling that this place could not be called their home, only if she saved enough money and went back to buy a separate small mansion in the future, she and Xiaobao could officially have a home.
Xiaobao didn't know what was going on today, and she giggled when she looked at Tiangu, and she was still humming something in her mouth, Fluttershy smiled, "It seems that Xiaobao likes it here, he's singing." ”
Tiangu looked down at her son and smiled: "Xiaobao likes it~"
-
In the barracks, cooking morning food is actually a very hard thing, and the soldiers get up early, and they have to make breakfast before they go out to exercise, which means that the cook has to be earlier.
At three o'clock, Fluttershy goes to wake up Sweet Aunt.
"It's a bit hard, but we'll be fine after the morning meal, and you'll come back at noon to catch up on sleep."
Tiangu nodded and looked at Xiaobao.
Fluttershy smiled, "You wait." ”
She went out for a trip, and it didn't take long for Sister Zhou to come, and Sister Zhou came in and said with a smile: "Give the child to me, I'll help you take it, and Grandma Sun." ”
Aunt Tian hurriedly thanked her, and Sister Zhou said: "You're welcome, we're all like this to help each other, and when I have something to do later, I'll trouble you." ”
Tiangu immediately nodded in response.
As soon as they left the camp, they didn't expect to meet Mama Zhao, and Fluttershy didn't expect her to be so early, "Mama? ”
Mama Zhao looked at Aunt Tian: "I was busy yesterday, and I haven't taken you to sign the deed of mutual covenant, so you come with me." ”
Tiangu nodded and followed.
Signing the deed of mutual covenant in the army is very simple, it is a matter of pressing a handprint, but Tiangu looked carefully, and when she saw the honorarium, she opened her eyes wide, five taels a month!
Mama Zhao took a sip of tea and said: "Since you have come all the way and taken on this drudgery, this money is nothing, besides, our general has always been benevolent, as long as you do a good job in the army, you will definitely not be able to treat you badly, and sometimes there is a reward for doing a good job." If you look at something else, there's nothing wrong with it, just press the mudra. ”
Of course, Tiangu had no problem, she pressed her handprint without saying a word.
Five taels a month, sixty taels a year...... Food and housing are in the army and do not cost money, even if the pocket money is not enough to make ten taels to die, she can save one hundred taels in two years......
After all, she is only nineteen years old, and all emotions are written on her face, and Mama Zhao sees that her face is full of joy that she can't hide, and her always serious expression also has a hint of softness: "Press it, and then go to work." ”
Sweet Auntie's walk to the room is undoubtedly cheerful, and as soon as she arrives, Fluttershy waves at her, and Sweet Aunt walks over.
At this time, Tiangu saw the true appearance of this big house.
The stove was divided into four or five columns, each with at least two cauldrons on it, and the maids and servants who were burning the fire were already busy with their work. Fluttershy pulls him to the innermost stove, "This is where we make our morning meal, this is Master Xu, and we're in charge of breakfast with us!" ”
Tiangu had long thought that the master in charge would not be alone, so she hurriedly said hello to the other party.
Master Xu nodded faintly at her.
Fluttershy stuck out her tongue in Sweet Aunt's ear and said, "Don't be afraid, Master Xu is cold and hot-hearted, he does this to everyone." ”
Tiangu smiled and nodded, looking at the ingredients on the stove.
Breakfast, as simple as it is said, is nothing more than porridge, steamed buns, steamed buns, and so on.
But if you want to do it well, it is a difficult thing, the porridge has been boiled, the cooks are mainly to make pasta, and the noodles test the basic skills of a cook, Tiangu looked at Master Xu and asked with a smile: "Let's steam the buns today?" ”
Master Xu nodded: "The stuffing is over there, are you adjusting the stuffing or wrapping?" ”
"I can do it, you choose."
"Then you adjust the filling, I'm already kneading the dough."
"Okay."
Sweet Aunt looks at the filling, and Fluttershy smiles, "Today's green leek is so fresh!" Let's wrap it with leek filling! ”
Sweet Girl: "Do you have noodles?" ”
Fluttershy is stunned: "Vermicelli? No...... We don't have that kind of complicated ingredients......"
Complex?
Tiangu was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, yes, the vermicelli has to be precipitated with sweet potatoes or potatoes by itself, and then frustrated the noodles, which is a bit complicated, she looked around: "It's okay, tofu is fine." ”
"Okay...... But tofu is also rare, you know, after all, it's a border pass. Fluttershy winks at her, and Sweet Auntie smiles helplessly.
Leek tofu is also OK, look at it again...... Is it cabbage, cabbage buns? It's done...... And also......
Oh, no.
Sweet aunt supported her forehead, she finally realized why she said that this errand is not easy to do, the lack of vegetables is really a bit tricky, but then look at it, there are also benefits of border passes, there is a lot of meat!
Especially beef and mutton, as well as animal oil, there are many of them!
Tiangu proposed: "There are few dishes, why don't we make some more meat filling?" ”
Fluttershy and Master Xu both look at her. Fluttershy: "Sister Sweet, I'm afraid we're running out of time......"
Sweet Aunt thought for a moment, "It's okay, I'll come, the soldiers don't have the energy to eat breakfast for a day, Fluttershy, you chop the vegetables, I'll chop the meat." ”
Seeing that she insisted on this, Master Xu didn't say anything, the three of them had an orderly division of labor, and they were all busy with their work.
Fluttershy was about to cut the leeks when she was stopped by her sweet aunt: "The leeks are not eager, they are easy to get out of the water if they are cut early, and they will not taste fresh. ”
Sweet instructs Fluttershy, and Fluttershy smiles.
Her knife skills are indeed good, and within a moment, the small squares of tofu are neatly cut, and the meat of Tiangu is almost chopped, and Fluttershy wipes her hands: "Sister Tiantian, you go to spice it, and I will continue to chop the meat." ”
Tiangu and her swapped places, went to adjust the filling, saw leek eggs and tofu, Tiangu suddenly wanted to make a vegetable box, it just so happened that Master Xu's noodles had just woken up, and Tiangu went to pinch it, "The softness and hardness of this side are just right to make a vegetable box, let's make a vegetable box with leeks, and then send this part of the noodles to make meat buns." ”
The little maids and servants around who were burning fire and water all glanced at the new chef, and seemed to think that she had a lot of things, and the sweet aunt thought that Master Xu didn't want to, and was about to explain, but Master Xu said casually: "Okay, whatever you want." ”
Tiangu swallowed what she wanted to say.
Time is tight and the task is heavy, fortunately, the three of them are quick to move, the leek box is a bit like an enlarged version of dumplings, the sweet aunt will call the little maid who has a hand, see that she has wrapped a few, and the rest of the people will also do, and start to divide labor in an orderly manner.
Originally, if it was just a steamed bun, it would be finished after steaming in the pot, but if it was a vegetable box, there would be one more process - frying.
The huge pan is brushed with a layer of oil, and the vegetable box is flatter than the dumplings, which is just suitable for spreading flat on the iron pot and frying over low heat, and then turning over when one side is fried until golden and crispy.
Tiangu had never made this vegetable box when she was in Chenjia Village before, because oil and water were precious, but there was little in the border army except for oil and meat.
Sweet Aunt doesn't care what others think, she insists on doing it, some little maids and little maids stand by the oil pot early in the morning and naturally don't want to, but the status of the cook is higher than them, and they don't dare to complain. Fluttershy, on the other hand, quickly chops up the minced meat.
The beef chopped hard, and Sweet Aunt patted Fluttershy on the shoulder, "It's hard, you can go and rest." ”
Fluttershy wiped her sweat and smiled, "I'm a little tired." ”
She didn't go far, standing next to Tiangu to learn, I saw that she quickly added a little salt, sugar, rice wine, etc. and began to grasp and pickle.
"Sister Tiantian, don't you put sauce?"
"Sauce?" Song Tiangu thought of the sauce-colored chili fried meat last night, and said with a smile: "No, the meat is already very fragrant, and there is no need for sauce, but the beef and mutton should be slightly fishy with rice wine, and the mutton needs more, and the beef does not taste great, let alone need." ”
Fluttershy is amazed that she remembers the sauce to be served when eating stir-fried meat at dusk.
But Sweet Aunt moves skillfully and looks confident, and Fluttershy suppresses the doubts in her mind.
The first batch of leek boxes has been out of the pot, and the cook wants to taste it first, so Tiangu walked over and called everyone: "Let's try it." ”
Chef Xu and Fluttershy couldn't wait to take a taste, the surface of the vegetable box was branded and fried with lard, naturally with the aroma of oil, and it was crispy when you bite down, the skin was bitten open to reveal the filling, and the tongue was already shouting for fear of being hot, but the fragrance of the filling could go straight to the heavenly spirit cover!
The moisture of the leeks is completely locked, the filling tastes tender and refreshing, the skin of the vegetable box is burnt but not hard, and the buns are the same pasta, but the taste is very different.
"Chef Song! This dish box is so delicious! ”
Even Master Xu, who had been expressionless, had his eyes lit up slightly, and nodded approvingly: "Not bad." ”
