Chapter 39 Cooking at Yipinxiang

"Shopkeeper, Mrs. Wang is here." The waiter informed quickly.

While they were talking, Yang Xu, Wang Dayi and Tianbao had already come in.

"Oh, here are some of you. I just asked the waiter to buy two ribs. I don't know what to do with them, so I'm sorry, madam."

"The shopkeeper is very polite. I'll take care of it. I've also brought these things. If it's convenient, could you please take me to the kitchen?"

Yang Xu put the vinegar in a bamboo tube, and also brought some spare parts such as chili pepper and peppercorns.

"Okay, please, ma'am."

The shopkeeper took Yang Xu to the back kitchen. It was still early and there was no one in the back kitchen. The shopkeeper told Yang Xu where the salt and oil were.

"Okay, let's go and wait in front. The cook will bother Madam now."

A few people went to the front. Yang Xu put down the things and looked at the ribs. Well, they are very fresh!

Just wash the ribs quickly and chop them into small pieces.



"Oh, brother Dayi came so early. Am I not too late?"

Wang Dahu ran over in a hurry, followed by the panting boy.

"It's not too late, we just arrived, and Xu'er is cooking in the kitchen!"

Wang Dayi felt a little helpless when he saw Wang Dahu running towards him in a hurry. This man was very impatient.

"Hey, come on, come on, let's see, this is the Dayi brother I'm talking about. His name is Wang Dayi. You can tell me later that I didn't lie to her!"

He had wanted to come over since he got up early in the morning, but his mother insisted on catching him and refused to let him go out. She said she wouldn't let him go out and fool around before the casino opened!

Why are you fooling around? He is seriously looking for a brother. This righteous brother is a very serious person.

He explained after a while, but his mother still didn't listen and insisted on letting Erxi follow him. Huh! She's just here to watch him!

"Hello, Your Majesty, the younger one's name is Erxi, and he is our young master's servant."

Erxi saluted quickly. This man didn't look like some rooster or dog robber. He looked quite imposing.

Oh my God! His young master has a serious friend.

Er Xi has a baby face and looks young, like a teenager. She also has small dimples when she smiles, which is quite cute.

"You're welcome. I'm just an ordinary citizen. You can just call me by my name."

"I don't dare." Erxi waved his hands repeatedly.

"Okay, just call me brother Dayi! You make my brother uncomfortable by calling him like that."

Wang Dahu also thought it was a bit strange, it was just a title, how could there be so much fuss about it.

Er Xi nodded obediently, a little confused. Usually, the friends of his young master like to call them master. This Dayi brother is a little different!

Tianbao looked at Erxi curiously, "boy? What does that mean?"

Then when Erxi looked at him, she gave him a sweet smile.

Erxi's eyes sparkled with light, what a cute baby!

He was afraid of scaring Tianbao, so he quickly lowered his head and twirled his fingers. He really wanted to squeeze it! But no, he was a servant, so he couldn't be so presumptuous. Hey! Go back and squeeze your fingers to get rich!



"Okay, everyone, let's have a taste!"

Yang Xu brought out two portions of sweet and sour pork ribs, both on plates. The ribs were caramel in color. Yang Xu also found sesame seeds in the kitchen and sprinkled some on them.

"Wow, it looks good!" Tianbao exclaimed first. This time there is a little white sesame on it, which makes it look better than last time!

"It looks good. First of all, it is better in appearance."

The shopkeeper also saw it. This dish is all about color, flavor, and taste. First of all, it should look good. Only when it looks good will you have an appetite. It should also be fragrant. When it was brought out, he could smell the sweet and sour taste.

I haven’t eaten it yet, but first of all, this dish satisfies two orders!

"Shopkeeper, please try it and see how it tastes." Yang Xu said with a smile.

"Then you're welcome. It's a pity if it's cold. Let's all try it!"

The shopkeeper first picked up a piece with his chopsticks. Well, there must be sugar in it. The soup was thick, but the color was particularly beautiful.

Well, the meat is soft and fall off the bones. Because it is ribs, the meat is chewy. It tastes sour and sweet at first, and is thick with the soup. It is delicious, and it does not feel sweet at all.

"It's delicious. My brothers and sisters are really good at cooking!"

Wang Dahu is not a sweet tooth, but he couldn't help but eat one piece after another.

"Brother Erxi, try it quickly. My sister's sweet and sour pork ribs are my favorite!"

Tianbao stuffed a piece of it into Erxi's mouth. He saw it, and Brother Erxi was swallowing his saliva.

"Thank you Tianbao." Erxi chewed the ribs, feeling extremely moved.

Wow, Tianbao is so cute, treat him well!

Well, this pork rib is also delicious, sour and sweet. Delicious!

Yang Xu looked at the shopkeeper eating one piece after another, and knew that he was very satisfied.

Several people finished the two portions of pork ribs quickly.

"Ahem, my wife's cooking skills are really good, and this sweet and sour pork ribs is a rare and delicious dish!"

"As long as the shopkeeper likes it," Yang Xu said with a smile.

A few people sat down to discuss business.

"I'm very satisfied with this dish. I don't know how much money Madam would have to pay before she would be willing to sell this recipe to me."

"Actually, I have two ways. It depends on the shopkeeper's choice."

"Want to hear the details."

"One way is that we negotiate the price and I will sell the recipe when the time is right. The other way is that it is a big deal."

Yang Xu paused, and seeing the shopkeeper's interested look, he took a sip of water before continuing.

"To be honest, I have many recipes for dishes that are not available in this town. They also use some ingredients that only I know. I have also made them for my family, and the response is not as good as sugar.

The vinegar pork ribs are bad. I wonder if the shopkeeper is interested in it?"

"Is this true? Madam also knows a lot of dishes that we have never heard of?"

The shopkeeper was very surprised. He has been running this restaurant for decades, and has successively defeated other restaurants in the town. He also hired many chefs to specialize in dishes. This makes Yipinxiang unique in the town.

Now some people say that there are more unheard of dishes?

"Of course, seriously, if the shopkeeper is interested, I can make a few typical dishes for the shopkeeper to try. Then the shopkeeper will discuss the business with me."

"Okay." This opportunity is not to be missed, of course I have to try it.

Yang Xu smiled with satisfaction, and then asked Wang Dayi to take the waiter to go shopping.

When they came, they left potatoes and some fish at Uncle Li's place. If the shopkeeper is interested, they can just go and get them later.

Uncle Li's place was not far from here. Wang Dayi brought two boys and brought the things neatly, and then bought a few more kilograms of pork according to Yang Xu's instructions.

Yang Xu took the things to the kitchen and quickly cooked several dishes using chili peppers.

Boiled fish, pickled fish, potato stew, chili pork shreds, hot and sour potato shreds...

Because they are all home-cooked dishes, Yang Xu can cook them very quickly.

Because of the overpowering smell of chili peppers, you can smell the fragrant and spicy smell in the front room.
