Chapter 318 Unexpected Letter
Feng pinched her little nose, there was really nothing she could do with this good boy.
Fortunately, the people all thought that thunder was a curse from heaven, which was acceptable.
After a while, steam rose from the stove, filling the house with fragrance.
The first pot of tofu skin buns was finally steamed.
The oil bean skin was very thin, and the meat stuffing inside was chopped finely. It was naturally cooked quickly when steamed in a hot pot.
Little Nuobao had a keen nose. He left behind half a sesame cake, stepped on the bench and went down to the ground, following the smell to hug his second sister-in-law's thigh.
Li Qiqiao touched her skirt, feeling uneasy, not knowing how this first time would turn out. She was holding Little Nuobao's head, and her hands were a little unsteady when she was holding the plate.
"Second sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, start the pot!" Little Nuobao licked his lips and couldn't help urging.
Feng smiled and helped her take off her skirt, "Don't act like it's the first time for a young lady to get married. You are such a good cook, why do you need to worry about this? The children are waiting impatiently, pick out the buns quickly."
Li Qiqiao hesitated and said nervously, "If it were our northern dishes, I wouldn't worry about it not being delicious even if I closed my eyes. But these southern dishes... the taste is a bit light, and I don't know if the stuffing will show through the fried bean curd skin. Mother, why don't you start the pot?"
Seeing his wife so nervous, Jiang Fenghu was full of joy and was about to stretch his mouth towards her.
Mrs. Feng immediately gave him an elbow, "Go away, what are you talking about? I'm a little hungry. Let's open the pot first."
As soon as the lid of the big wooden pot was opened, more than 30 oil-bean curd skin buns with green onion "neck" were revealed.
Each one was half the size of a palm, and the skin was as thin as a cicada's wing, and you could see the meat filling inside!
Moreover, each one was beautifully wrapped, sitting on the curtains in a cute way, like more than 30 little dolls.
Little Nuobao screamed and drooled, and then stamped his feet, eager to reach out his little hands to take it.
The whole family was amazed, and Mrs. Feng smiled and picked up all the buns and put them on the plate.
"Just looking at this makes me hungry. What are you worried about, second son, wife?"
Li Qiqiao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mom, we don't know how it tastes yet. If it only looks good, it won't be good."
There was a big pot of oil bean skin buns. The adults each got four and the children each got three. The ones
put into Xiao Nuobao's bowl were the best-looking ones in the pot.
The little guy grabbed one with each hand and chewed it with big mouthfuls. Both cheeks were bulging with food.
The aroma of beans mixed with the aroma of meat, the whole family couldn't stop eating after just one bite.
"Delicious, very delicious, wife, this bite feels like meat filling, it's really enjoyable." Jiang Fenghu's mouth was full of dumplings and he kept giving a thumbs up to praise.
Feng also nodded in praise, "No wonder the recipe says that the seasoning should be lighter. This bun has no dough to balance it out. The meat filling accounts for 80%. If it is too strong, it will be greasy. Instead, it is just right like this."
Li Qiqiao swallowed two mouthfuls in a row, her eyes flashed with satisfaction, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well! Mother, I think it's really good to do it this way. I will take it to Xianquanju in the next two days and serve it as a snack. The guests should like it!" Her tone was full of joy.
Sun Chunxue buried her head in eating crazily. In one breath, she ate all four of her own.
Jiang Fengnian glanced at her stomach, handed her the remaining food in the bowl, and smiled.
The whole family was enjoying the meal, but they forgot about the little one in the inner room.
At this moment, Chun Ge'er was squatting on the edge of the kang, stretching his legs, eager to get
down to the ground to taste the food. But his short legs were not strong enough to reach the ground, so he had to move back to the kang, holding the sesame cakes left by Nuobao, and chewing them dryly for a while.
Little Nuobao only ate two, wiped his greasy little mouth, and squeezed the remaining one into his sleeve.
"Mom, don't forget Chun Ge'er, he hasn't been fed yet." She rubbed Feng's neck, and then jumped and ran to the west room.
Needless to say, the remaining one was left for Xiao Lanyi.
At the moment, Xiao Lanyi couldn't eat openly, so the task of feeding him was contracted by little Nuobao.
After all, she was the only "idle person" in the Jiang family. She would either hang out in the east room or stroll around the west room all day long. No matter when she was around Xiao Lanyi, she would not attract people's curiosity.
In addition, this little girl was the most greedy, and she had to hold some food and drink in her hands no matter when and where.
Things like feeding Xiao Lanyi were even more of a side job.
But the "keeper" Xiao Nuobao was sometimes not very reliable.
That afternoon, after Feng finished baking the east kang, she took out a bowl of smooth egg cake without any honeycomb eyes, spread a spoonful of shredded meat sauce on it, and asked her to give it to Xiao Lanyi.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Nuobao held the spoon and wanted to feed each of them a mouthful, but as he was feeding them, he unknowingly poured all the food into his stomach...
Feng Shi heard something was wrong, and when she came in to see, she grabbed the fat legs of the lady, "You little girl, you are almost a ball, and you are still so greedy!"
Xiao Lanyi was hungry, but she was still very protective of her, so she quickly hugged Xiao Nuobao and helped her block Feng Shi.
The three people in the west room laughed and were about to play "Eagle Catches Chicken", but at this time, Jiang Fengnian's voice came from the yard.
"Huh? The official post has delivered a letter? It says... It's for Mr. Xiao, a letter from the capital!"
After hearing this, Xiao Lanyi stopped making noises and touched the little baby in her arms, "There is a letter, could it be a reply from grandma?"
"Of course not, I wrote the letter two days ago and just asked my aunt to send it out. Even if it is sent quickly, it will take at least another three to five days for grandma to receive it." Xiao Lanyi blinked in confusion.
Feng stood up, "Don't worry, I'll get it for you and we'll know!"
