Chapter 30: Pretty good (please vote for more)
It seems that my original choice was not wrong.
Su Yujin is truly a person who is worry-free.
He Yanzheng was sighing, but Su Yujin was very interested. "Second Master, what would you like to eat tonight? I will prepare it for you."
Although she didn't like the identity of a mistress and was a little troubled by He Yanxiu's arrival, since he came to give her money, Su Yujin felt that she had to fulfill her duty for the sake of the silver.
At least in the field that you are good at, you should do it well.
"You are a good cook, just watch me make it." He Yanxiu didn't care.
And sometimes, it doesn't make much difference to him what he eats.
What's more, Su Yujin's cooking skills are really impeccable, so you don't have to worry about it if you leave it to her.
"Then I will take care of the arrangements." Su Yujin bowed, "Second Master, please do a little bit. If you feel tired, you can take a rest. I will be back soon."
"Yeah." He Yanxiu raised his hand.
Su Yujin left the relatively steady Mother Liu at home to serve and wait on call, and she took Ai Cao with her to go for a walk on the street to see if there were any suitable ingredients to buy to cook for He Yanxiu.
This stroll lasted for more than half an hour, and we didn't return until it was completely dark.
A bamboo basket full of various ingredients was placed on the table in the kitchen.
Su Yujin did not take a break and started working with the help of Ai Cao and Mother Liu.
After half an hour, the food was placed on the table one by one.
When cooking the dish with white jade mushroom, pork belly and bean curd, some bean paste is added to enhance the flavor and color. The pork belly is stir-fried in advance to release the oil, and the white jade mushrooms are also blanched in water. It does not taste greasy, nor does it have the strange smell of the white jade mushrooms themselves. On the contrary, because bean curd, white jade mushrooms and pork belly are all ingredients with mellow taste and rich aroma, the taste becomes even stronger when combined together, bringing out the rich flavor to the fullest.
Okra fried with shrimp. Okra has the effect of preventing autumn dryness and lubricating the intestines. It is very suitable for autumn, especially for He Yanxiu who had copper pot hot pot meat today. The shrimps used are fat river shrimps with shells peeled. Although they are not as big and thick as sea shrimps, they are fresh and delicious. The taste is excellent.
Tomato fish fillets, made with the last crop of tomatoes in autumn, have a stronger flavor, and a more sour and sweet taste than summer tomatoes. The fish used is grass carp, and most of the bones are removed before filleting, so the fish tastes light, fresh, and tender, and is comfortable to eat.
Tofu stewed with taro, the taro is powdery and fragrant, and the tofu is tender and delicious. It is stewed with the broth cooked from chicken rack, and is full of fragrance. There is no need to add too much seasoning, just salt and chives to enhance the flavor, and it is very delicious.
The staple food is lotus root and glutinous rice balls. Lotus root has the effects of strengthening the spleen and appetite, replenishing the body and nourishing the blood. It is fresh lotus root just dug out in autumn. It is crisp with the unique sweet taste of lotus root. Lotus root paste and steamed glutinous rice are made into small balls, and a little salt is added to enhance the flavor. It tastes soft and crispy, and it is salty and delicious. You will never get tired of eating it.
These dishes are all ordinary light home-cooked meals, but they are also made by Su Yujin to be exquisite and delicious, with good color, aroma and taste.
Even though He Yanxiu had opened his appetite and ate copper pot hot pot after noon and was a little full, he still felt a little empty in his stomach at this time and devoured these dishes with relish.
Perhaps because she wanted the dishes to look exquisite and appetizing, Su Yujin deliberately controlled the portion of each dish to be relatively small. In any case, by the time He Yanxiu put down his chopsticks, most of the dishes on the table had been eaten, with nothing left.
Even Ai Cao, who was cleaning the dishes, sighed.
These dishes are all exquisite and delicious, and my daughter put a lot of effort into making them, so they must taste very good.
So much so that Ai Cao stretched her neck hoping to have a few bites of leftovers, so that it would be worth it for her to stare in the kitchen for so long.
But now...
No leftovers were left for her! I really don't know whether to say that the second master has a good appetite or that the girl's cooking skills are really good.
Ai Cao sighed, took the hot steamed buns, tore them into pieces, and used the buns to wipe the remaining plates clean.
Meanwhile, by the time He Yanxiu finished rinsing his mouth and drinking lotus seed tea, it was already late at night.
Putting down the book he had been reading for a long time, He Yanxiu rubbed his eyebrows.
The fatigue on his face was visible to the naked eye.
"If you are sleepy, why not rest early?" Su Yujin said.
He spoke with some hesitation.
The last time He Yanxiu came, he was in a hurry, and he left in an even more hurried manner. It was indeed as he said, he was just passing by.
This time, He Yanxiu seemed relaxed and comfortable, and it was obvious that he came here specially.
If he came here specially, could it be for her? Damn it.
Could it be that He Yanxiu was here to pick flowers? She was really not prepared for this, and she couldn't quite accept it...
Su Yujin's face was wrinkled like a bun.
"Yeah." He Yanxiu nodded, stood up and went into the inner room.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Yujin followed in with great uneasiness in her heart.
Seeing Su Yujin coming in, He Yanxiu paused with his hand on his belt and said, "Xing'an will serve you. You have been working hard all afternoon, go down and rest early."
No need to warm the bed?! Su Yujin was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed. She hurriedly bowed to He Yanxiu, "Yes, Second Master, please go to bed early. If you need anything, call me. I wish you a good sleep."
It’s best to sleep until dawn without any other demands.
After saying this, without waiting for He Yanxiu to reply, he quickly left the inner room and went to the east wing.
He looked flustered, as if he was worried that He Yanxiu would go back on his word.
He Yanxiu, "..."
It’s... pretty, pretty good.
After Xing'an saw Su Yujin go out, he closed the door and helped He Yanxiu make the bed. After he took off his coat and lay down, he turned off most of the lights, leaving only one not far away for He Yanxiu to use for lighting.
He went to the outer room, leaned against the couch with his clothes on and closed his eyes.
He Yanxiu, lying on the bed, couldn't sleep.
Firstly, it was because he had suddenly changed his sleeping place, and this room originally belonged to Su Yujin, so there was a bit of the scent of girlish cosmetics, and he was really not used to it.
The second reason is that my stomach feels a little bloated.
I ate both lunch and dinner with a big appetite and felt a little full. I still feel like I haven't digested all the food.
Because of these two reasons, He Yanxiu tossed and turned in bed for a long time.
Listening to the noise inside, Xing'an pushed the door open carefully and asked, "Second Master, can't sleep?"
"Some."
"Then..." Xing'an thought for a moment, "Should I ask Miss Su to come and accompany the Second Master?"
The Second Master came to Shuanggui Lane specially and even stayed here overnight. I guess he really missed Miss Su, but he slept alone at night...
I probably feel a little regretful now.
He Yanxiu, "..." —— PS: Don't worry about the ingredients, this is a fiction, the author has many personal settings, all the ingredients are there~ More updates~ This book is currently in PK, the data is very important, it affects the later recommendations, whether the author will have a meal in the future, maybe these days, those who have votes can support it, those who don't have votes can leave a message to increase the activity, thank you~
