Husband, Have Dinner

A Yao carrying Jiuzi Zong, obviously surprised to see Mo Xingle's family.

What's so surprising?

She didn’t figure it out, smiled and brought the desserts up. "I think it’s the Dragon Boat Festival today, and after the meal, I will make the rice dumplings a little bit smaller, one bite. The elderly may need to divide the rice dumplings into two and try them separately. ."

It is a long plate, with the branches drawn with sauce, and the nine-child dumplings are embellished as the result, and finally decorated with calamus.

Jiuzi dumplings are of different colors. The little nephew looked at the cute chubby and stretched out his hand to touch it.

"The color of the rice dumplings is different, which distinguishes the different flavors?" Mo Xingle's mother asked.

"The black rice dumplings on the left and right are made of ume, and the fillings are candied dates with a little sweetness and duck egg yolk with a smooth taste. The brown one is the alkaline water bean dumpling, and the jade one is the mung bean and salted meat dumpling. Eight-treasure rice dumplings contain glutinous rice, millet, millet, oats, red beans, mung beans, and lotus seeds. The taste is sweet, with fresh meat dumplings in the middle. There is only one fresh meat dumpling, and the others are two."

She asked Mo Xingle in advance if he should pay attention to the taste of zongzi, and she learned that every year their family always came to the proposition of "Do you eat sweet zongzi or salty zongzi?" , Pinch a bit before that.

"Yes, you can." Grandpa and grandma each sandwiched a Umi rice dumpling. Grandpa eats sweet and grandma eats salty. Mo Xingle's father eats salty rice dumplings, his mother eats sweet rice dumplings, and his little nephew struggles between Babao rice dumplings and red bean dumplings.

Mo Xingle’s mother "Little girl, you did it today. Isn’t it expensive? How old are you this year?"

"Brother Mo passed by Nanxun and Zhanyi helped our family with a very important favor. Later, when I came to the capital, he solved the nuisance of the gangsters. I don't have any special skills, only the cooking skills can get on the countertop a little, thanks to Brother Mo. I can afford it, please come to your house for a family dinner, I am too happy to have time, how can I collect the money." A Yao explained, "This year fourteen..."

She thought that the Mo family felt that she was too young to support a family dinner alone. She quickly added, "Don't look at my young age. I have been a teacher at the age of seven or eight. I have been studying cooking with Master for seven years and many dishes. I can do it all."

At the age of fourteen, she used to be a boudoir at the age of fourteen, and even without taking a step in the kitchen, this little girl was already able to cook good dishes. Mo Xingle’s mother watched Ayao, whose cheeks were slightly fat, and hurriedly defended. She tried her best to pretend to be an adult, but she was still childish as she looked at it. ."

A Yao only treated it as a polite remark, and obediently agreed.

Later, she was invited by Mrs. Mo to cook several times, and most of them were the guests of Mo Xingle’s father’s former colleagues to make a table of side dishes. I don’t know, Mo’s family has a three-level scholar, Mo Xingle is in Dali Temple, and his brother is also holding important positions in the Criminal Department. Xingle also competed with his brother, and was favored by the big guys. After going back and forth, the group of people who had made friends with the Mo family knew that there was a cook in their family who was very comfortable with cooking.

There are many cooks who can cook the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, but it is difficult to find a cook who can prepare meals that can be adjusted to everyone and everyone can eat comfortably.

Without knowing it, A Yao gradually became less famous.

...

Now that I knew that the bird's nest person was in the princess's mansion, and had become a face-to-face maid, I let down worry about the bird's nest not knowing that it was inside.

Keep in mind the instructions in the bird’s nest letter not to contact her. Quan assumes that he has never seen her before, and A Yao did so. In contrast, she feels that she is content with the status quo and is a bit salty. It is difficult to follow the **** who is not low in standing in and out of the princess's mansion. Ayao can't imagine how much she will pay, but she knows very clearly that she will not go up and will not enter the eyes of the nobles. The story of Mochizuki will never be turned over. Chance.

The identity of her master and her senior sister involved the previous affairs. She worshipped Mochizuki's gate and taught each other. She couldn't make a clear line and walked on both sides of the road. Right now, all she can do is to practice her cooking skills diligently, participate in the culinary exchange on September 9th, and enter the four bureaus and six bureaus of the government in one fell swoop, and then take a step forward.

Time flies and it's Mid-Autumn Festival.

In another month she will be ready!

But the culinary art conference is on Chongyang, on the ninth day of September, and her birthday is on September 15... A-Yao remembered this problem and hurried to inquire about it. Fortunately, they seemed to be really thirsty for talents, as long as their birthday was in September, no matter what You can apply for registration before or after the Chongyang Festival.

Beautiful!

The two sisters and brothers of Sunniangjiaodian can see that A Yao is in a good mood recently. It is so good that they sometimes point them to Li Gang and Li Rou. This makes Li Gang and Li Rou flattered. The cooks in many restaurants are unwilling to let others learn their own cooking skills, A Yao. But willing to point them.

"Just teach me one or two things. Are you afraid that we have learned to take your place?" Li Rou asked.

Ayao laughed, "If it's so easy to steal, then your cooking skills must be extremely talented, and you can still train. When you're done, don't think too much, help knead the dough to make moon cakes, and sell moon cakes at noon."

The grandson knew that Ayao had signed up for the Chongyang Cooking Competition. She asked, "I won't come back when I enter the official four divisions and six innings, right?"

"I can continue to do it here for a while, no matter what, I have to wait until I find a good cook before I can leave without worry." A Yao smiled.

She has inquired that several chefs who stood out in the culinary art competition were invited to banquets by the dignitaries, and that was the reward for participating in the culinary art competition. For cooks registered in the four departments and six bureaus of the government, if they are idle cooks and cooks, the four departments and six bureaus of the government can assign jobs to them. The price is determined by the four departments and six bureaus. The tax is also paid out of the remuneration. Purchase materials from the Fourth Division and the Sixth Bureau.

In general, the government-run four departments and six bureaus are backed by the imperial ship. It includes Beijing chefs and kitchen ladies for easy management. The pricing is standard, which effectively restricts some chefs and kitchen ladies from asking for excessive prices. The people can afford to hire the chefs, and the chefs with lesser reputation can also Find a job through the four divisions and six innings, without signing a deed of selling, and if you don't want to go to the fourth division and six innings, you can not go, just like a tooth.

Among them, the pros and cons only depend on the people at the top of the pyramid or the masses at the bottom of the tower.

"It's good to dare." Sun Niang smiled.

After noon, there were not many people in the store, so Sun Niang handed out a basket of fruits and moon cakes by herself, "Today is the holiday, please go home earlier."

"Okay, thank you Mrs. Boss." A Yao and Li Gang and Li Rou went back to each house with their baskets, but Song Fang didn't move. He touched his head, his face was ashamed. Can you cook more for me alone?"

The grandson was stunned and scolded with a smile, "You idiot! Cheng Lei, I'm going to cook, and you can take care of the eldest baby and little treasure."

Song Fang also laughed stupidly.

A Yao went home with fruits, and all kinds of lanterns were hung in the alleys in the afternoon. Everyone had a smile on their faces, as if they were Chinese New Year.

Infected by the joy of their family reunion, A Yao also smiled and curled her eyes.

When they came home and opened the door, the two dogs were wagging their tails, and the big white goose ran to welcome her home with its wings.

"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Do you want to eat moon cakes? Yeah, I forgot that you can't speak, so you should be offended by not eating." A Yao said with a smile, and the dog and the big white goose seemed to understand. Make a sound of dissatisfaction.

"Wow!"

"Hey!"

Ayao gently kicked Gouzi with her foot. "Don't make trouble, I'm busy." She brought the lotus leaf porcelain plate, put the fruit in the basket on the porcelain plate, pomegranate grape orange taro and a handful of chestnuts, Jin Guicong The branches floated away, swirling down on the blue porcelain plate, the golden osmanthus flowers were dotted with pomegranate seeds that were broken apart in half to reveal the crystal red pomegranate seeds inside, and the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus, she subconsciously raised her head, and this osmanthus tree was also harvested. Time of year.

Spread a piece of cloth on the ground and use a bamboo pole to knock down the sweet-scented osmanthus on the branches, like a urchin sitting on the branches and sprinkling gold powder on the branches. Shake it with a dustpan, filter the dust, scum and flower stems, rinse with water, mix in salt, and spread on a bamboo sieve to dry.

Taking advantage of this time, she began to prepare dinner tonight, even though there was only one person, she had to eat well, not to worry about Mochizuki and the bird's nest.

In the autumn of this year, I heard that there was a bumper harvest in various places. The prices of new rice and glutinous rice on the market did not rise. Instead, because of the ample supply, the prices dropped slightly. Ayao bought more and shipped it back, made his own rice vinegar and brewed fermented rice, and hoarded some rice to survive the winter.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, crabs are on the market. At this time, the female crabs are full of crab roe. How can you miss it?

But crabs are cold, and she can't eat much by herself. With a small steamer, she can just fit a crab. Put a piece of **** on the crab belly and steam it on the pot to highlight its deliciousness.

Let’s have another steamed pork ribs with glutinous rice, meat and rice, the portion is also a small steamer, fried a lotus pond moonlight, the sweet soup after the meal is sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus taro.

The prepared taro is a small one, about the size of glutinous rice balls. Good taro is softer and not sticky. It is more refreshing than glutinous rice **** and has a natural sweetness. A Yao doesn’t like to eat taro, either powdery or hard. But the taro is just right.

Peel off the outer skin of the taro soil, revealing the white and fat flesh, and cut it into hob pieces. Add a spoonful of soda noodles to the water and cook together, which will make the taro red. Melt the brown sugar in the other pot and boil it into a pot of brown sugar water. Pour the taro chunks and wait until the chopsticks are pressed down and feel soft. Pour the boiled lotus root powder water into the pot, the sugar water changes from clear to thick, and finally add osmanthus sauce to complete.

When the dinner was ready, the sun hadn't set, so she turned over the osmanthus on the bamboo sieve. It was estimated that it would take one night to dry and make osmanthus sauce and sugar osmanthus.

The door is always open, every household is cooking, and the children are playing and playing with lanterns. A Yao looks at the children outside the door and mutters, "While it's still dark...Should I make a lantern?"

Now that I think of it, I will do it.

She doesn’t know how to start with the paper lantern she wants, but the grapefruit lantern is very easy to make. Just like making Chuanbei stewed pears, first cut a lid on the grapefruit, draw four knives from top to bottom, and insert a bamboo spoon into the peel. Separate and eat the pulp later. Put a small board and candle at the bottom of the grapefruit. Use a bamboo stick to reconnect the grapefruit skin on the top of the grapefruit.

The contour of the moon rabbit is carved out of the grapefruit peel on all sides, the lid is closed, the candle is lit, and the light shines through the gap and the contour of the jade rabbit.

The grapefruit lanterns are ready, and the bamboo sticks exposed in the gaps are tied with colorful strings, gathered to the top and twisted into a knot, and finally tied to a straight bamboo pole, you can carry it away.

The sunset glow was gorgeous, and the full moon quietly appeared on the east branch, slowly climbing up.

Ayao went back to the house to light the lamp, put the grapefruit lantern on the stone table, and brought out all the supper.

The blue crab in the steamer turned into a red crab. She cut the crab legs and crab claws, removed the crab cover, peeled off the crab cover and almost overflowed the crab yellow. The yellow and orange crab yellow was so greedy that Ayao immediately drooled down and removed the gills on both sides. , The crab heart and the crab stomach are cleared out, and a small spoonful of vinegar is poured on the crab roe to make it fresher while relieving greasy.

Ayao took the crab apart and had a great time. After eating the crab roe, she opened the crab body, and the white crab meat burst out, sweet and delicious.

After eating the sugar taro, the dog gnawed the ribs, the big white goose ate the broth bibimbap, and the last gleam of afterglow scattered into the clouds, only the sky was bright and the moon was bright, and the lanterns hanging high in the world were not lonely.

A Yao looked up at the full moon, humming softly

"...People have sorrows and joys, and the moon is cloudy and clear. This matter is hard to come by in ancient times. I hope that people will last forever and be together for thousands of miles."

Fuhai.

Qu Yunhe made a table of good dishes, Mochizuki prayed for the moon, the table offered a fragrant stick, three plates of fruits and vegetables, apples, grapefruit, taro and pink kudzu, and a plate of three vegetarian lotus paste mooncakes.

I hope the bird's nest and Ayao are doing well.

When she finished worshipping the moon, she smiled at Qu Yunhe and sat down for dinner.

"You set off the day after tomorrow. I think you still have a few more sets of clothes. The capital is no better than Fuhai. It's easy to catch cold morning and night in autumn." Qu Yunhe finished speaking, he stopped talking.

"What else?" Mochizuki blinked.

Qu Yunhe sighed, "Come back early, I miss you very much."

She chuckled and laughed, "I haven't set out yet, you just think of me coming back."

Before she could finish her words, Qu Yunhe hugged her, Mochizuki slammed into his arms, counted the heartbeat under his chest, and only heard him say, "I could bear it before. It was because we were separated for too long. I I am numb, and even the blood flowing in my body seems to be cold. Because you come back to me, like a treasure lost and regained, like spring back to the earth, peach blossoms, how can I endure the loneliness of gain and loss? This feeling is too uncomfortable. NS."

Mochizuki hugged Qu Yunhe, "Me too. But Ayao's rituals can't go, I have promised her." Her forehead touched Qu Yunhe's, "I promise you, and the rituals end me. Just come back."

...

In the middle of the moon, the teapot on the small red clay stove boiled and screamed, mooncakes were on hand, and the candles in the grapefruit lanterns were half burned. Gouzi and Big White Goose came back to their place to doze off, and A Yao didn't know what she was going to do while sitting in the yard.

The little dolls outside the door are full of energy and are still playing around. Three or two dolls have built a simple stove with bricks. There are a few candles underneath, and banana leaves are placed on them. On the banana leaves are small taro and home cooking. Cooked escargot.

There was movement from the wall.

She looked up, and someone did not walk through the gate and climbed the wall.

"Ayao, so you are still here. The moonlight is so beautiful today." Pei Shuo crossed the wall with one foot and hung half of his body on the wall. Turn up and down, and land steadily, "I sneaked out, look, I brought you Dongshan orange, let's share it together!"

A Yao suddenly laughed, "Okay, I still have grapefruit."
