Chapter 236: What's wrong with your nose? Can't you smell the strong smell in our house?
"ah--"
Wenjiu jumped up in shock. Yuan Fang was not frightened by the flames but by her scream. When she jumped up, she bumped into the chopping board. Seeing that the knife was about to fall on Wenjiu's feet, she quickly pushed Wenjiu away. Unexpectedly, Wenjiu bumped into Lu Beiye's unused pot on the ground. She tripped and fell, smashing the dish that Zhao Chunni gave her yesterday into pieces...
Then the two of them looked at each other.
Yuan Fang looked at the mess in the kitchen and finally understood why Wen Jiu didn't cook. Judging from the situation, she would have to prepare several kitchens.
Otherwise, you might not even be able to eat the last meal and have to think about what to eat next time.
This destructive force is really strong!
God is so fair. If he gives you a particularly good side, he will also give you a very bad side.
She is still the best!
Everything is balanced!
"How about I help you? I'm afraid if I let you do it any longer, your husband won't be able to rest well when he comes home tomorrow, and he'll have to find someone to clean the kitchen."
Wen Jiu was still a little nervous, but thought he should give it a try since he had experience. "No, there shouldn't be any problem later."
After they cleaned up the kitchen, they continued to cook. They warmed the wine and followed Yuan Fang's instructions to fry the ribs with pork fat until they started to turn yellow, then poured boiling water into them and began to stew.
"How long does this take to stew?"
"When the soup turns white and has a strong aroma, add the lotus root and continue stewing. When the lotus root is cooked, sprinkle some salt and chopped green onions on it and you can eat it."
"This..." Wenjiu looked embarrassed, "Sister-in-law, can you be more specific?"
It was too vague for her to grasp.
Yuan Fang said helplessly, "I'll say it again, and I'll say it in detail. Just like what I said just now, put five bowls of water for one bowl of bones, and cook it for an hour. Then pour the lotus root in it. This kind of lotus root is difficult to stew. Cook it for an hour and taste it. When it's cooked, turn off the heat and add a spoonful of salt with a spoon. If there are too many ribs and you're not sure about the amount of salt, add it while stirring it with a spoon and taste it evenly."
I wrote down every word of the instructions for warming the wine, turned around, took out the corn flour and poured it into the basin. The lotus root and pork ribs soup must be served with corn cakes!
"Use half a basin of cornmeal and a bowl of flour, stir with chopsticks while adding water. If you can knead it into a ball, you don't need to add water. Knead it into small balls, press it into the size of your palm, and put it in the pot over a low heat." Yuan Fang was afraid that she would not be able to warm the wine tomorrow morning, so she asked her to mix the dough in advance.
"We can't finish this, right?"
"Put the remaining dough somewhere to keep it warm. You can continue to bake it tomorrow morning. It won't go bad in the cold weather."
I warmed the wine and did as I was told while sighing, cooking is much harder than making money, it's really too hard. If I can succeed this time, I will go home and cook it for my family someday.
We are all family, so we should treat them equally.
After working in the kitchen for more than two hours, the lotus root and pork ribs soup and corn cakes were finally cooked perfectly. The soup was very fragrant, and the corn cakes had a golden shell on the surface, but when you broke them open, the inside was still crispy and soft, not hard, and had a fresh fragrance.
"Sister-in-law, come and taste it to see how it tastes." Even though he was so excited that he almost cried, he still gave Yuan Fang the soup and the pancake and let her eat first, "I can't believe it."
She had no talent for cooking. In her two lifetimes, she had never cooked such a successful and delicious meal.
Yuan Fang pouted deliberately, "I've been busy for so long and you still want me to test poison for your Captain Lu? Where is your sweetheart?"
Wen Jiu knew she was doing it on purpose, so he patted his chest and said, "It's in here! It's filled with my sister-in-law. My man is only worthy of eating what my sister-in-law leaves behind."
"Hahahaha..." Yuan Fang was so amused that she couldn't stop laughing. "I heard it. When your Battalion Commander Lu comes back, I'll learn from him."
"Go ahead and learn!"
Wenjiu waved his hand generously, "If I say go south, he won't dare go north. What am I afraid of?"
Yuan Fang: “…” Damn it!
This couple is really good at showing off!
She should just eat the cake and drink the soup!
Fortunately, the soup and cakes tasted good, so she was not seriously injured.
Wen Jiu was also very satisfied. As long as he could perform steadily at this level tomorrow morning, he would definitely surprise Lu Beiye.
Just thinking about her makes me look forward to it!
After sending Yuan Fang away, Wen Jiu cleaned up the kitchen and washed everything that needed to be washed. She also boiled two pots of water to prepare for tomorrow's use. She took a bath and went to bed. Before it got dark, she fell asleep with beautiful expectations for tomorrow. It was better to go to bed early and get up early so as not to delay her plans.
But the idea was beautiful but the reality was cruel. When she woke up, it was almost seven o'clock.
"It's over, it's over..." Wen Jiu dazedly glanced at the time and suddenly woke up, "How come it's seven o'clock! It's too late!"
She rolled over and got up, rushed to the bathroom to wash up, put on an apron and went to the kitchen to cook. The more anxious she was, the more things went wrong. It was as if she had lost her memory of something she had already cooked yesterday. Her arms were so stiff that she didn't know what to do.
"Calm down, calm down..." He warmed the wine and took a deep breath, cheering himself up and adjusting his state.
The more anxious you are, the more chaotic it becomes!
She must succeed now!
After adjusting the conditions, I warmed the wine slowly according to yesterday's notes. I learned my lesson and did not throw away the lard when adding it. Instead, I used chopsticks to slowly stir it in the pot and took out the chopsticks only after the lard was melted.
The result of this outdoor training match was the same as in the book, Qiao Yue was the champion, but there was a variable -
Lu Beiye is also the champion.
On the way, they fought with each other for the flag, which was always passed between them. No one else even touched it. The flag was in Qiao Yue's hand before reaching the finish line, but at the moment of the finish line, Lu Beiye caught up and neither of them was willing to let go, so the game ended in a draw.
Their fight delayed them for a while, leaving room for warming the wine.
Seeing the rich aroma of the sparerib soup and the corn cakes in the pot almost cooked, my heart, which had been hanging in the balance, finally settled down.
“Tick, tick, tick—”
When she heard footsteps outside, she knew it was Lu Beiye who came back, so she quickly ran out of the kitchen to see. When she found out it was Lu Beiye, she happily jumped into his arms.
Lu Beiye staggered and quickly grabbed the sofa behind him to steady himself.
After running around for several days, he had plenty of water but had hardly eaten or slept. He also fought with Qiao Yue with all his might, so he was a little exhausted.
"I have prepared a huge surprise for you. Guess what it is." Wen Jiu put his hands around Lu Beiye's neck, looked up and stared at him with sparkling eyes.
Even though he was now covered in dirt and his original appearance could not be seen, he was extremely handsome in Wenjiu's eyes, shining brightly and attracting his attention and heartstrings.
Lu Beiye smelled the smell of home, but in order to warm the wine, he still shook his head, "I can't guess!"
Who knew that Wenjiu's eyes widened and he asked anxiously: "What's wrong with your nose? Can't you smell such a strong smell in our house?"
Lu Beiye: “…”
The nose is fine!
It's just that his mind is still stuck in the battle phase and hasn't adjusted to the phase of dealing with his wife.
