"Hey, you are indeed eating at home!"
After Chen Yan and Ren Jie entered the door, they saw Lin Xu in the kitchen and knew that today was not in vain.
Because they come here often, they bought two pairs of cotton slippers and put them in the shoe cabinet at the door.
After changing her shoes, Chen Yan couldn't wait to come to the kitchen door and asked Lin Xu:
"Brother-in-law, what are you making delicious food tonight?"
"There is a roast chicken steamed in the pot, and roast lamb will be stir-fried later. The main dish is fried noodles."
"Then what do you do with the bullfrog?"
Lin Xu looked at the bullfrog in his hand and said with a smile:
"I'm preparing midnight snacks for Dundun. He now has four meals a day. It's getting cold, so he needs to eat more to withstand the severe cold...Brother-in-law finally won't work overtime tonight?"
Ren Jie came to the kitchen carrying a bag of mangosteen and a reticulated melon:
"I finally got off work early today. I originally wanted to go see a movie, but the show was cancelled, so we decided to find a place to eat..."
So, instead of going to the restaurants all over the street, you drive all the way from Chaoyang to Haidian, right?
In order to eat, I really worked hard.
Ren Jie washed his hands, put a small eucalyptus board for cutting fruit on the workbench, then took out the reticulated melon from the bag, placed it on the eucalyptus board, and cut it into teeth with a fruit knife.
First scrape the pulp into the trash can, then remove the skin.
Cut the remaining pulp into small pieces and place on the fruit plate.
After setting it up, he took out a few fruit forks and carried them outside for Chen Yan and Shen Jiayue to taste.
"Have a try on this melon. It's said to be imported. If it doesn't taste good, I'll have to go to that fruit shop later."
Chen Yan saw Dundun lying on the piano and came over.
But her level is incomparable to Shen Baobao, she only knows some simple melodies.
For example, now, the chairman of Happy Media touched the keys and chirped for a long time, and finally played the existence of floor tiles in a piano piece - "Two Tigers"
Playing and singing at the same time:
"Two Dun Dun and two Dun Dun run fast. One has no ears and the other has no tail. It's so strange, so strange!"
Dundun was closing his eyes to relax and ignored her.
But Chen Yan sang it once and felt it was not satisfying. When she was about to sing it a second time, Dundun stood up, stretched out her paw and hit Chen Yan on the head, and then ran away with her little butt stuck out.
Chen Yan: "!
”
"You, Shoudundun, stay with me. If you dare to hit your elders, is it because I haven't taken care of you recently and started to hit you on the nose?"
Shen Jiayue forked a piece of melon and tasted it:
"Wow, this melon is good, fragrant and sweet, and has a delicate texture, just like eating ice cream."
She picked up a fork and went to the piano to feed it to Chen Yan:
"Are you bullying Dundun here again? Are you planning to go fishing with the Air Force on the weekend? My son can bring good luck, don't believe it."
"I believe it, but the weather forecast says it will snow over the weekend. No matter how powerful your son is, he can't force the fish to bite the hook, right?"
"That doesn't matter, my Dundun family is the most powerful anyway."
In the kitchen, Lin Xu cleaned up the bullfrogs and put them on a plate. After the chicken was steamed through, he placed the plate in the steaming cabinet and started steaming.
Then he cut the mutton and marinated it.
While the meat is marinating, put the noodles in the pot and cook.
Don't overcook the noodles when making chow mein. After they are soft, cook them for about a minute or two. When there are still white cores in the middle of the noodles, take them out.
Put it into a basin and pour cold water over it. At this time, Ren Jie has also prepared the lettuce brought back by Lin Xu.
Set up the wok, pour oil into the pan, add the cut luncheon meat and fry it, fry two eggs, stir fry and take them out, then cook the minced green onion and garlic in the hot oil until the fragrance becomes fragrant, then put the noodles into the high heat
Stir fry.
When the frying is almost done, pour in the light and dark soy sauce and oyster sauce, sprinkle in the salt and chicken powder, stir-fry until browned, add the eggs and luncheon meat, then add the lettuce and continue to stir-fry.
Wait for the lettuce to collapse, remove from the pan and plate.
After the noodles were fried, Ren Jie served them out, while Lin Xu started cooking the fried roast mutton.
At this moment, Dundun's bullfrog was ready. Shen Jiayue walked in, and Chen Yan used a kuai to pick off the bullfrog meat, put it on Dundun's eating plate, and finally poured the broth on it.
While the two were busy at the dining table, a sneaky little head poked out from the stairs, obviously attracted by the smell of bullfrog.
"Come on, honey, it's time for dinner. Auntie, I'm kidding you. I still have a thick tail and ears. Come and eat some meat."
Only then did Dundun tentatively come down from the stairs and circle around her plate.
The meat is still slightly hot at this time.
It made everyone happy to see its expression of wanting to eat but being afraid of being burned.
It turns out you are so afraid of being burned. If I had known, I would have just dried it for you.
Chen Yan originally wanted to make fun of her a few more times.
But thinking about the possibility of relying on Dundun to take off the Air Force hat, I might as well forget it.
By the time Dundun got used to the temperature and started eating, Lin Xu had already prepared the stir-fried roast mutton, and also patted two of the cucumbers that Baby Shen used to apply on his face.
A few people sat at the dining table and started today's long-fat supper.
The meals on the table are very simple, including a steaming roast chicken, a large portion of mutton made with onions, coriander and other ingredients, a portion of cucumbers with mashed garlic, and a large plate of fried noodles for each person.
Even if you go to a street stall to eat, you won't be so casual, but everyone will eat deliciously.
It's incomparable. Every dish is so delicious that even those who have just eaten, let alone those who are hungry, can't help but take a few bites.
Chen Yan put a chicken leg on her plate. After taking a bite, her eyes suddenly lit up:
"Wow, I didn't expect that steamed roast chicken would taste so good. It feels exactly like freshly baked chicken... I'm going to get a small steamer in the office later and steam the roast chicken when I want to eat it. How convenient it is.
”
Lin Xu said:
"Actually, the best way to taste it is to reheat it with the original broth of the braised chicken. That way it will taste better. If you steam it, the aroma will dissipate a lot."
On this cold night, eating cold roast chicken is easy to cause problems.
It’s better to heat it up and eat it warmly to feel comfortable.
Dundun once again showed his ability as a foodie. After finishing the meat, he licked the plate clean.
After eating and drinking, the little guy washed his face, then went to his room upstairs, hugged the little carp, next to the little mouse, and fell asleep soundly in the cat castle.
"What will my brother-in-law prepare for lunch at the store tomorrow?"
"I won't be in the store tomorrow. I'm going to Diaoyutai to learn the clear soup noodles made by my master on the day he retired. This delicacy is quite difficult and requires the cooperation of my senior brother and Chef Yin from Building 12 to complete it."
Chen Yan Braised Pulled Noodles:
"Is it so difficult?"
"It's quite difficult. Just pulling the noodles to more than fifteen buckles is already beyond the level of most ramen chefs. The finished ramen has to be fried in a pan, and then washed in soup stock.
oil slick, and finally put it into a bowl and add the prepared clear soup...it's super troublesome anyway."
Shen Jiayue was already full, but suddenly became a little greedy after hearing these words:
"Xubao, after you learn how to do it, can you give it to me to try? It looks delicious..."
Lin Xu:??????
Shouldn't your first reaction be that it's troublesome?
But since the baby wants to eat, then naturally he should be satisfied.
He smiled and said:
"Okay, when I learn how to do it, I will cook it for you, so that you can feel the mentality of my master who was sitting at the door of the kitchen after eating this bowl of noodles and then retired in style."
As soon as I finished speaking, the system prompt sounded in my mind:
"The host actively cooks delicious food for his lover and triggers the reward task [Clear Soup Noodles]. The host is asked to make a perfect-level noodle soup for Shen Jiayue within a week. After completion, he will be rewarded with two perfect-level meal learning cards.
”
Ouch!
The reward mission that I haven’t seen for a long time is two perfect learning cards.
As expected, the reward tasks are more generous, and the items given are all urgently needed supplies.
"Thank you Xubao!"
"Hey~ I have goosebumps all over the floor. Even if you two are tired of it, can you wait until we leave before we start again? An eighteen-year-old girl like me cannot afford to see such a scene."
Chen Yan sat aside with a look of disgust.
After eating and drinking, Ren Jie helped Lin Xu tidy up the kitchen, then changed shoes with Chen Yan and left.
Lin Xu said with emotion:
"It's really unhealthy to eat such a heavy meal before going to bed."
Shen Jiayue nodded:
"It's really not healthy, but...it's so fun to eat!"
Yes, I know it’s not healthy, but I still can’t help but want to eat it. This is probably the charm of delicious food.
Lin Xu turned off the light in the living room, then went upstairs to take a look at Dundun. Seeing that the little guy was sleeping soundly, he covered him with a small blanket and quietly left the room.
"Dundun is asleep?"
"I'm still snoring. Let's go, let's take a shower and go to bed. We have to go to Diaoyutai tomorrow, so we can't miss the time."
The two returned to the master bedroom, then washed and rested.
At 7:30 the next morning, Lin Xu drove Shen Jiayue and Dundun to the store.
"I'm so sleepy... I won't eat or stay up late at night anymore. If I eat again, Yan Bao will gain ten pounds!"
A certain big baby who stayed up late to watch anime was still yawning when he got off the bus, obviously not getting enough sleep.
Lin Xu said:
"Why don't you go back and take a nap after breakfast? Anyway, there's nothing to do in the morning. Just let Dundun stay with Shu Yun in the store."
"That won't work. If you're not in the store, I have to keep an eye on you."
Although Mr. Shen didn’t know how to keep an eye on it, with the proprietress sitting in the store, the employees must have different levels of enthusiasm for their work.
[Recommended, Yeguo Reading is really useful. Download it here.yeguoyuedu. You can try it soon.]
Lin Xu smiled and said:
"Okay then, is there anything you want to eat at Diaoyutai? If so, I'll bring you some."
"The rabbit head and sweet-skinned duck bar in Building 18, I haven't eaten them recently and I'm really greedy... Bring more, those who are trying to lose weight will definitely rush to eat them when they see them."
The ones Shen Jiayue talks about losing weight are the members of the fat loss team.
However, they have been obsessed with food recently and haven't talked about losing weight for a long time.
Especially the sister-in-law, she obviously started to show off after she got a partner. Not only did she eat and fuck all kinds of things, but she also rarely did sports like tennis and swimming.
"What are you having for breakfast today?"
Lin Xugang just entered the store and happened to meet Ma Zhiqiang, so he asked curiously.
"This morning I fried fried dough sticks and drank spicy soup. I also cooked some pumpkin millet porridge. If you don't like spicy soup, you can have porridge."
Shen Jiayue, who had been yawning just now when she heard about fried dough sticks, was no longer sleepy immediately:
"Xubao, I still remember that the cold fried dough sticks you made for me last time were so delicious. How about you make them again later? I haven't eaten them for a long time and I'm a little greedy... If there are any leftovers today, I have to take them back.
Order it and have it as a late night snack."
Lin Xu smiled helplessly.
Didn’t you vow that you wouldn’t eat anything before you entered?
For this reason, I would not hesitate to swear by my sister-in-law's weight.
It’s only been two minutes and you’ve already forgotten?
But it’s okay to take a few fried dough sticks back with you so that you don’t have to worry about what to eat at night.
Ma Zhiqiang said:
"There are a lot of fried dough sticks. If you want to eat them at night, you can just fry some in the afternoon. No trouble."
"Wow Kaka, thank you, Master Ma!"
Putting Dundun on the service desk, the little guy went into the cat house to catch up on his sleep.
Lin Xu came upstairs. The smell of spicy soup and fried dough sticks made people feel like they were in front of a local breakfast stall in the Central Plains.
There are several schools of local Hu spicy soup in the Central Plains, and different schools have different ways of eating it.
For example, the famous Xiaoyao Town Hu spicy soup is usually paired with scallion pancakes and large fried dough sticks, while another style, Beiwudu, is served with puff pastry.
As for Fang Zhongshan, who is more popular in the provincial capital, his best partner is fried dough cakes.
When Shen Jiayue was carrying a bowl to serve spicy soup, Lin Xu walked into the kitchen and saw that the person frying the fried dough sticks was Qi Siliang, so he smiled and said:
"Thank you for your hard work, Siliang. Did you put on your hair last night?"
"Well, I made them after get off work last night. I ate them all night. It was just right to fry them this morning... Boss, do you like to eat freshly made fried dough sticks? This pot of fried dough sticks will be ready in no time."
"Okay, then I'll wait a moment."
Lin Xu originally wanted to mix fried dough sticks and cucumber together like last time.
But I think it would be better to change the taste after eating cucumber last night.
He saw a lot of washed lettuce in front of the vegetable sink next to him, so he took a small basket, stacked a few leaves together, then grabbed and twisted the vegetables into three parts.
After everything is done, pour it into a larger basin, add garlic paste, vinegar, salt, MSG, chili oil and other condiments, stir evenly and set aside.
The fried dough sticks have also been fried at this time.
He placed the eucalyptus slices for cooking on the workbench, cut the fried dough sticks into small sections, and put them into the basin.
The lettuce is very tender, and the moisture is removed after adding seasonings.
Put the fried dough sticks in now, just enough for the fried dough sticks to absorb the excess juice in the basin.
After stirring evenly, this lettuce mixed with fried dough sticks is ready.
There were so many people today, so Lin Xu specially mixed a large pot, which made Qi Siliang’s eyes go straight:
"You can still do this with fried dough sticks? It's really a lot of experience."
"Try it later, it tastes pretty good."
Lin Xu served Qi Siliang a plate, and then took the rest outside, letting the car guy divide it up, and then started eating.
"Wow, these freshly fried fried dough sticks are different. They feel even more delicious than last time... If not, I have to put poison in there to piss off people who haven't even gotten up yet."
Just as he was talking, Zeng Xiaoqi came to eat.
Seeing the cold fried dough sticks, the beautiful host immediately took out her mobile phone:
"Haha, I finally saw the cold fried dough sticks. Let's put the poison in. Life is incomplete without poison!"
Seeing her coming up alone, Shen Jiayue asked:
"Where's Sister Yuanyuan?"
"She got up earlier than me and has already gone to work... Now there is a group purchase at No. 4 Middle School, so I have to go there early to prepare. Those students would rather spend money on fried pancakes than eat in the cafeteria. The school is very helpless."
Everyone is not stupid. If the food is unpalatable, they will naturally choose the delicious one.
If we put it aside, the school leaders can still say that the food outside is unclean, but Ziqiang Shengjian just donated money to the school, so there is no way to stop the students.
Zeng Xiaoqi picked up a piece of cold fried dough sticks and put it into her mouth:
"Yuanyuan said that she would officially surpass Ziqiang Shengjian Headquarters before the end of the month, so she didn't bother to eat... Wow, this mix is really delicious, I should eat more!"
Lin Xu said:
"When I go to Diaoyutai later, I'll bring her some spicy soup and fried dough sticks, so that Sister Yuanyuan can soothe her homesickness."
After saying that, he tasted a piece of cold fried dough sticks. It was sour and spicy with a garlic flavor. It tasted really good.
The unique freshness of lettuce and the fried dough sticks form a clear contrast. Not only is it not greasy, but it also makes people feel appetizing.
But for Lin Xu, he still prefers to soak the fried dough sticks in spicy soup.
The fried dough sticks are filled with the soup of Hu spicy soup, and your mouth is filled with the spiciness of pepper, which is so satisfying.
After a solid breakfast, Lin Xu packed two servings of spicy soup and some fried dough sticks in paper bags, then said goodbye to Shen Baobao who was preparing breakfast for Dundun, and drove to Diaoyutai.
Passing by No. 4 Middle School, he pulled over and saw several teachers from the school standing in front of the store.
When they saw Lin Xu, several teachers smiled and said hello.
Although the company that donated money is Ziqiang Shengjian, everyone knows that the boss behind Ziqiang Shengjian is Lin Xu.
"Thank you, Boss Lin, for letting our students no longer have to worry about life."
"Those students all put on new down jackets and said they wanted to thank you."
Lin Xu said:
"We just tried our best and it's not worth mentioning. If you really want to thank me, then study hard and maybe you can work at Linji after you graduate."
He didn't say anything about getting admitted to Tsinghua University or Peking University, because he was worried that it would cause psychological pressure to everyone.
So I talked about Lin Ji, directly letting students look forward to life after graduating from college.
As his fame grows, Lin Ji’s treatment is also envied by more and more people.
The food is good, the salary is high, and the benefits are not to mention. Unfortunately, the recruitment is too harsh. Not to mention the company's employees, even Lin Ji's chef recruitment has a strict process.
After the teachers returned with the breakfast bought by the students, Lin Xu placed the spicy soup and fried dough sticks in front of Chen Yuanyuan, who was dressed like an astronaut:
"Tsk tsk, I thought you would find a good marriage as a salesperson, but you ended up wearing such thick clothes, a cotton hat on your head, and a cotton mask..."
"Brother, do you know how cold it is to stand at the door for a day? It will snow on the weekend, and it will be freezing. I will take the lead in going to the labor bureau to sue the black-hearted capitalists... What the hell is this?"
“Spicy spicy soup and fried dough sticks.”
"Hehe... I still love my sister. When I was busy just now, I was thinking that it would be great if I had a bowl of spicy spicy soup from my hometown. I didn't expect that my wish came true so quickly."
Lin Xu helped her open the lid of the spicy soup box:
"Next time you make a wish for a house in the capital, let's see if it can come true so quickly."
"Tch, you think of me as an Arabian magic lamp? Where are you going now? If you don't do your job every day, don't look back and ruin Lin Ji's reputation."
"I'm going to study, eldest sister, not to play around... Tell Yueyue what you want to eat for lunch and ask her to find an errand to deliver it to you. We are my family, so don't be embarrassed."
Chen Yuanyuan took a big sip of spicy soup:
"No, besides being busy at noon, I don't have time to eat."
The siblings chatted for a while.
Lin Xu got in the car and left, all the way to Diaoyutai.
When he was approaching Building No. 2, he saw Yin Hongbin coming to Building No. 2 aggressively with a boning knife. His expression was very much like the day he slaughtered the cow.
Lin Xu's heart skipped a beat when he saw it:
I'm going!
Senior brother, have you provoked others again?
If I go in now, will Lao Yin be unable to let go and be reluctant to kill him?
I wish I could have chatted with Sister Yuanyuan more...
