The innkeeper will try his best to meet the guests' requests.
In the kitchen, there was only one chef and one kitchen helper who had not yet finished work.
However, since there were no guests at the moment, the two were sitting together chatting about trivial matters in the city.
Hearing that Qiu Yan and her friends wanted to use the kitchen, they lent them a separate stove and cookware set.
Qiu Yan thanked them, and then they began their late-night snack and preparation of fresh ingredients.
During the day, even if they weren't traveling, the inn's kitchen would still be busy.
"Qin Susu, do you know how to knead dough?" Qiu Yan asked in a low voice.
"This..." Qin Susu scratched her head, somewhat embarrassed, "Sorry, I don't know how."
"Fine, I'll do it." Qiu Yan glanced at Ling Qi and Ling Ba again. It seemed that she would have to do the work of making wontons herself tonight.
She started kneading the dough.
Qin Susu yawned, having been quietly observing from the side, but was called over by Qiu Yan to clean the fresh ingredients, including some dried shrimp and shiitake mushrooms.
Ling Qi and Ling Ba then stepped forward and lit the stove.
After Qin Susu finished washing the ingredients, Qiu Yan guided her step by step to make wontons.
Fortunately, the pork was pre-ground, so she only needed to add some scallions and ginger.
Qin Susu started learning very slowly at first, but after wrapping a few, she mastered it.
However, I'm not very skilled, and the wrapping didn't look good.
However, making wontons is not difficult to learn. As Qin Susu made them, she found it very fun and was no longer sleepy.
Under Qiu Yan's instructions, Ling Qi and Ling Ba began to stir-fry and dry the food in an iron pot.
The process sounds simple, but it's actually quite time-consuming.
Gradually, the kitchen filled with a delicious aroma.
Throughout the entire process, the head chef and his assistant were completely stunned.
They thought that Qiu Yan and the others were just using the kitchen to heat up some cold food, but they didn't expect that they would treat their kitchen as their own home and even start cooking.
They understood Qiu Yan and Qin Susu's actions, but they couldn't understand Ling Qi and Ling Ba's actions at all.
The two found the reading tedious and couldn't help but doze off.
In a daze, the chef squinted at Qiu Yan and the others' actions, thinking to himself, what are they doing? It smells strangely delicious.
"Uncle Wei, take a break. If the guests want to eat in the middle of the night, we'll still have to work." The kitchen helper yawned. He had originally planned to wait for Qiu Yan and the others to leave before they left, but it seemed that they wouldn't be able to leave anytime soon.
"You should take a nap first." The chef, known as Uncle Wei, was clearly drawn to the fresh ingredients prepared by Qiu Yan and the others.
The kitchen helper, unable to resist his drowsiness, curled up in a corner and fell asleep.
After the kitchen helper finished cooking, the head chef approached Qiu Yan and asked, "Miss, what exactly are you making here?"
"Uncle, this is fresh ingredients, used to enhance the flavor," Qiu Yan replied with a smile. "If you're not in a hurry to rest, you can have a bowl when we've finished cooking."
She knew that the head chef would most likely have to stay up all night, which was why he spoke like that.
"This... thank you very much." The chef sniffed the aroma of the fresh ingredients.
He really wanted to try what Qiu Yan's wontons made with fresh ingredients tasted like.
"We borrowed the kitchen first, so we should be the ones thanking you. You don't need to be so polite," Qiu Yan said with a smile.
Seeing Qin Susu's clumsy movements, the chef washed his hands and said, "I'll help too."
Although he had never made wonton wrappers before, he could learn how to make them just by looking at them.
He had never made wontons before, but he learned how by watching.
