Chapter 756: Encountering the Best at the Market (I)
When Lu Xiaoxiao left Liu Meihua's house, she looked at the time and it was already 4:30 in the afternoon. She didn't expect it to be so late. She was planning to go to the cowshed tonight, so it seemed she had to hurry up and make dinner.
After Lu Xiaoxiao returned home, she immediately lit the two kangs in the house. Then she took out two kilograms of flour from the space and mixed it to make dumpling skins later.
The preliminary work for the dumpling skin has been done, and the next step is the filling. She is in a hurry now, so she doesn't plan to chop the meat by hand. She directly uses the meat grinder in the space to grind the meat.
After preparing the filling, Lu Xiaoxiao found a rolling pin and started rolling out the dumpling skins.
Half an hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao had wrapped a hundred dumplings. She put them outside the house. These would be delivered to the chefs in the evening, so she put them outside to freeze.
After Lu Xiaoxiao returned to the house and was about to light the big earthen stove, she heard footsteps in the yard. She knew it must be Zhang Xu coming back, so she didn't plan to light the big earthen stove and let Zhang Xu do it later.
“I’m back.”
"Well, what can I do?"
"Go light up the big earthen stove, and then add half a pot of water to the pot. You'll use it to scald the dumplings later."
"good."
Half an hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao finished wrapping the remaining dumplings, so she carried the dumplings to the kitchen.
"Can you make dumplings?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Zhang Xu.
"meeting."
"Then leave the dumplings to you. I'll take some dumplings to the cowshed and will be back soon."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
After Lu Xiaoxiao took a bag and packed the dumplings that had been frozen in the yard, she left the house. While walking, she thought about what she should give to the masters. After what happened last time, she didn't dare to give the masters too many things at once.
When Lu Xiaoxiao arrived at the cowshed, she saw there was still light in the room. She knew that the masters had not yet rested, so she walked up and knocked on the door.
The four people who were drinking tea in the room heard a knock on the door, and they guessed who was coming. Foreman Xie got off the kang, opened the door, and saw that the person coming was indeed Lu Xiaoxiao, so he stepped aside to let Lu Xiaoxiao in.
"You're back." Old Mr. Fan said to Lu Xiaoxiao.
"I came back yesterday at noon."
"Nothing happened in Harbin, did you?"
"No, it's just that the snow is too heavy, so I haven't come out to play."
"Are you going out next time?"
"I'm not going out. The weather is too cold. It's better to stay at home."
"The weather this year is indeed much colder than in previous years. If it weren't for this kang, we four old men probably wouldn't be able to endure it." Old Fan took a sip of water and said.
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded when she heard what Mr. Fan said. The weather this year was indeed much colder than in previous years.
"Master, has anyone in the village come to cause trouble for you while I've been away?"
"No."
"That's good. I was afraid they would come to cause trouble for you."
"After what happened last time, they won't trouble us easily."
"Um."
"Xiao girl, what's in your bag?" When Foreman Xie saw that the bag on the table was beginning to leak water, he asked Lu Xiaoxiao.
"There's a fish in there, which I use to make soup for the chefs. The bag next to it contains the beef dumplings I made today. The one on the ground is a bag of rice, about five pounds." Lu Xiaoxiao told them everything she brought today.
