But Wu Gui said quite righteously, "These are everyone's food and grass, and they are not just taken out casually for you to waste!"
Only then did Zhou Xin realize that Wu Gui had no intention of abiding by his agreement with them from the beginning.
Seeing the ingredients they had worked so hard to pick being thrown aside like this, he couldn't help but get a little angry.
Is it possible that there really is no place for reason in this world?
Just when Lin Mengya was considering whether to continue dealing with Wu Gui or use other methods to obtain the materials she needed, suddenly, a rather majestic young man walked out of the crowd.
The young man held a cloth bag in his hand and walked straight in front of Lin Mengya and the others before placing the cloth bag on the ground.
"Master Junjun asked me to bring this to you. Master Junjun said that if you can't make something that satisfies him, then you have to pay back double the amount."
With that said, he opened the cloth bag and revealed the contents.
Lin Mengya's eyes suddenly lit up.
Although the amount of things is not much, it is very complete.
She took out a small, palm-sized jar, opened the lid, and found that it was indeed filled with lard.
There are other condiments, rice noodles, etc. Although the portion is only enough for one meal, it is like timely rain for them.
No matter what the other party's purpose was, at least she remembered this favor.
"Okay, then please wait for me for a while, Sir, and I will definitely let him have a full meal!"
The stern-faced young man didn't have much hope for her. After delivering the things, he didn't care what the people next to him said and just stood aside with his arms folded.
Lin Mengya weighed the lard in her hand and gave Wu Gui a provocative look.
Wait!
Since the other party is stumbling upon her in this matter, then she will make the other party lose his proud status as a chef!
Wu Gui frowned, feeling slightly dissatisfied with the man who joined the army.
Isn't this a slap in the face?
It's just that he can't get angry at the adults who joined the army, so he can only bear all his hatred on these few people.
He thought to himself that if it weren't for them, this situation wouldn't have happened today. He wanted to see what tricks these people could do.
Wait until these people fail, then you can settle accounts with them!
After counting the materials in hand, Lin Mengya assigned tasks to everyone.
She and Zhou Ning dealt with the wild vegetables and fungi together, while Zhou Xin went to fetch a bucket of clean water. As for Long Tianyu, she was assigned the most tiring, but also the most critical and important task - chopping firewood. > Yes, the firewood he chopped was the branch pulled back by the two men.
It's not that Lin Mengya doesn't feel sorry for her man, it's that she can only rest assured if Long Tianyu does this.
Long Tianyu first peeled off the bark, then split the thicker branches and dug out the core. The rest was chopped into pieces of wood and piled aside for later use.
.
Because everyone's attention was focused on the ingredients in the hands of Lin Mengya and Zhou Ning, no one noticed the situation on his side.
Even if someone saw it, they wouldn't be able to guess why he did this. They just felt that this person was a little too meticulous in his work.
Lin Mengya and Zhou Ning were very fast. One of them picked up all the fungi, washed them and finally broke them into small pieces. The other one picked off all the old leaves and roots of wild vegetables, and then
Also pull apart.
Everyone is not unfamiliar with their actions.
When they were marching outside, if they could not get a supply of fresh vegetables, they would sometimes choose to use wild vegetables as vegetables.
So when Lin Mengya asked Zhou Xin to directly mix the torn wild vegetables with flour, add a little water, directly shape them into wild vegetable dumplings and steam them in a pot, everyone felt disappointed.
That's it?
White vegetable dumplings? Is this also called supreme delicacy?
Everyone feels that they have been deceived.
I'm afraid this guy's cooking skills are not as good as Chef Wu!
Well, if you think about it carefully, it seems that Chef Wu's is no better.
But Lin Mengya doesn't mind what others think.
After she carefully cleaned the iron pot, she asked Zhou Xin to dig out a piece of lard and fry the fungi, and finally put in a pot of water to make soup.
The unique smell of fungi is indeed very fragrant, but again, her simple and crude method is simply a waste of resources.
Everyone was very excited to watch it at first, but now they feel more and more disappointed.
A group of onlookers left, and those who stayed were those who had nothing to do or were sent by others to inquire.
Zhou Xin covered the pot and kept muttering in his heart.
"I said Ah Cha, can we really do this?"
Although he felt that he was being pushed to the top, compared with the other party's cooking skills, which had almost no cooking skills, he felt that he might as well cook it himself, and perhaps the chance of winning would be greater.
Lin Mengya, on the other hand, was watching the pot. After the water boiled, she put the
The vegetable dumplings were stuck to the side of the pot.
Finally, she secretly threw in a few pieces of bark and wood cores that Long Tianyu had peeled before. As for the others, she took them and quietly smoked them by the stove.
The taste of wild vegetable dumplings and mushroom soup is not very appealing, and even has a slight bitterness of grass.
Wu Gui sat aside at first, but later left with a sneer.
He thought he must be crazy!
He actually allowed them to go crazy and wasted time with them.
He left only one person to guard him, and then returned to his kitchen.
Compared with Zhou Xin's uneasiness, Zhou Ning quietly moved a small bench and sat next to Lin Mengya, but his eyes were looking at the iron pot longingly.
Zhou Xin looked at his foodie brother without words.
"I haven't treated you badly all these years as a brother. Why don't you pick on me at all?"
He was really worried to death!
Zhou Ning rarely pointed at the iron pot and said to his brother, "Brother, it's delicious!"
"It's so delicious!" Zhou Xin almost became anxious and reprimanded, "Can't you be more angry? This is something delicious. Isn't the big elbow better than this? What does it taste like? Why is it so delicious?"
Just as he was scolding Zhou Ning in a hasty manner, an unusually alluring aroma suddenly spread out.
He couldn't tell what kind of food aroma this smell was.
In short, the moment he smelled it, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. His stomach, which was not very hungry, felt extremely empty at the moment, and he just wanted to find something to eat to quickly fill his stomach.
But he realized belatedly that the aroma was actually coming from the iron pot!
What a hell!
Isn't it just a pot of mushroom soup and a few wild vegetable dumplings stewed here?
Why is it so tempting?
There were constant sounds of slobbering all around, and Lin Mengya took her last step.
She threw the roasted half-dried bark and wood core into the pot.
Suddenly the fragrance became extremely mellow. Compared with just now, the smell was not as overbearing, but it was more unforgettable.
The people around were also very surprised. Some people even took out half a steamed bun from their arms. With this smell, even the dry steamed bun became very delicious.
Is this really weird?
This smell also attracts many people.
Now everyone is full of curiosity about the contents of this pot.
I wonder if they were just pretending to be mysterious before. In fact, the real killer move is yet to come?
"Okay, it's time to cook!"
Following Lin Mengya's shout, Zhou Xin immediately opened the lid of the iron pot.
Next, eight green wild vegetable dumplings, plus a large pot of thick white mushroom soup, appeared in front of everyone.
Everyone rushed to look into the pot, but they felt strange. Although the wild vegetable dumplings were steamed well, why did they smell so good?
The fragrance of wild vegetables combined with the wheat flavor of white flour, with a hint of bitterness in the sweetness, whets your appetite and makes you want to stuff all these vegetable dumplings into your mouth to satisfy your craving.
There is also the thick white mushroom soup. The mushrooms are already very delicious, but this seems to add a lot more essence.
Although everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva, their eyes were not yet blind.
The floating things in this mushroom soup seem to be some bark or something, right?
But Lin Mengya didn't give them a chance to take a second look, and asked Zhou Xin to quickly serve it in a large stoneware bowl. Finally, he put it on a plate and asked people to invite Du Canjun to come over for dinner.
The moment Zhou Ning opened the lid of the pot, he seemed to be frozen, his eyes fixed on the two things.
Lin Mengya secretly stuffed a vegetable dumpling into him and pointed to the remaining soup in the pot.
Zhou Ning immediately smiled at her, that smile was bright and pure, a sincere thank you from a foodie.
Zhou Xin on the side has become a sour chicken.
Humph! Can he not let go of this younger brother?
It was just a vegetable dumpling and a bowl of mushroom soup, and it was bought by someone just like that!
However, these two smell too tempting.
He rubbed his hands and smiled "hehehe" at Zhou Ning.
"Xiao Ning, that one"
Zhou Ning immediately guarded the vegetable dumplings against his chest, and neatly scooped out the remaining mushroom soup from the pot.
The way he protects his food is simply disgusting!
"You little heartless thing, you do this to your brother!" Zhou Xin couldn't help but scolded.
But who would have expected that at the next moment, Zhou Ning turned his head, leaving him with only a figure protecting his back.
have to!
I can’t have this younger brother!
On the other side, from the moment the aroma wafted out, the young man who brought them the ingredients stared at their iron pots with a solemn expression.
Knowing that Lin Mengya had put everything away, he immediately sent someone back to invite Du Canjun to come over.
After about half a quarter of an hour, Du Canjun came over with the support of his men.
