Chapter 156, the fourth flavor of Wuwei Pavilion, the flavor of childhood
Early the next morning, Shi Ke and Mouri Kogoro opened the door of Wuweige early and went straight out of the stall. The baskets formed into a hill were all laid out, the stools were arranged, and the cashier Liang Cai was placed in front of the stall to start work.
"Yawn... Shike-kun, we opened the door too early today. Yawn..." Mouri Kogoro yawned continuously.
"I usually work earlier than now, right? Why don't I see you like this?" Shi Ke asked.
"At least we don't officially open until noon! It was okay to be lazy before, but when noon arrived, I was completely awake. Now that we are open for business, I can't stop yawning! Yawning..." After a while...
, Mouri Kogoro couldn't stop yawning.
"How about you go get some sleep first?"
"No. I still have to work. Otherwise, I will stay in the kitchen and you can find some kitchen work for me instead of greeting the guests outside. After all, it is really inappropriate to yawn in front of the guests."
"Hmm... you are right. Let me think about it. Let's go back to the kitchen first. Liang Cai, take a look outside. If any customers come to buy, you can sell the items in the steamer to them." Shi Ke ordered.
After a while, Liang Cai and Mouri Kogoro entered the kitchen together.
"Oh, brother, bring me a dish of vinegar when you come out. You need to add sugar. I'm eating dumplings." Liang Cai took a basket of steamed dumplings and sat at the table and said while eating.
"I know." Shi Ke stuck his head out and said.
After a while, "Ah? I can't handle this!! Shike!" Mouri Kogoro's wailing sound came from the kitchen.
"Haha... It depends on you whether you will lose money today. Come on, I'm optimistic about you." Shi Ke carried a plate of vinegar with sugar and walked out of the kitchen without looking back.
"Ah! You are trying to exhaust me to death!" Mouri Kogoro screamed even more miserably.
"The vinegar you want." Shi Ke put the vinegar on the table.
Liang Cai used chopsticks to stir the vinegar, "Brother, did you really just add sugar?"
"Isn't this what you asked for? Why should I change it?" Shi Ke rolled his eyes.
"Well...it doesn't matter. I thought you would help me make it taste better."
"As for dipping sauces, the simpler the better. It's too fancy and will affect the original taste of the dish. If you hadn't requested it, I wouldn't have even added sugar. Aren't the steamed dumplings I made delicious? I also need vinegar.
To enhance the taste?" Shi Ke sat down on the bench next to Liang Cai, leaning his head on his face and saying.
"Of course the dumplings made by my brother are not delicious. This may be my personal habit. I think eating dumplings without dipping them in vinegar simply lacks soul!"
"Oh... I'm convinced. It's up to you. Just a reminder, be less jealous, it's not good for your teeth." After Shi Ke finished speaking, he also started turning over the steamer one by one.
"Hanamaki... the taste is too bland. Change to a meat bun... I'm a little tired of eating it in the morning, so I'll change it to steamed pork... It's even more greasy, so I'll change it to shrimp dumplings... Hey, this is good. One basket. Two more.
What do you want? Let’s have a cage of siomai first. Then let’s have another one... bean paste buns... no, it’s too sweet. Tofu buns... eating spicy food early in the morning is not good for your stomach... ugh! This is better.
The pickled vegetable buns are an appetizer! However, they are not enough, so let’s have two light shredded shredded mushroom and bamboo shoots buns, that’s it.” Shi Ke picked at random, and the four steamers were decided to go home.
Liang Cai looked at him in shock, "Brother, you eat so much by yourself, do your customers still want to buy it?"
"What's wrong? It's not me who has the final say whether the food I cook will be sold or not. Besides, it's only half past six, where are the customers coming so early?"
"Then why are we setting up shop so early? Do you want to drink from the northwest wind?"
"Buying breakfast today, what would you call breakfast if you don't make it early?"
"I'm speechless. No matter what, it's important to eat dumplings." Liang Cai grinned, picked up a dumpling, dipped it in some vinegar, and ate it in two bites. The basket was empty, "Brother, you only have six dumplings in this basket."
It’s too stingy!”
"Come on. This is Japan. If you can eat six of these dumplings in one fried dumpling, you can already thank God. Why can't I eat six dumplings in one serving? What are you talking about? What a shame for you.
I majored in economics. Prices are different in different regions and countries, don’t you know?” Shi Ke cast a sidelong glance in disdain.
"Well... I want another one. I can't get enough of it."
"Turn it over yourself."
"No. The cage is too high and I can't reach it. I just got lucky and took it down."
"..., okay. I'll help you get it. It's steamed dumplings, right?" Shi Ke stood up and turned over the basket.
"Whatever. I'm not picky about food."
"Oh. Got it." Shi Ke immediately placed a cage of large white flour steamed buns in front of Liang Cai, "Eat it. Don't be picky about food."
"..." Liang Cai raised his head and looked at Shi Ke, staring with dead fish eyes, (?_?), "He deliberately tricked me again. Then help me get some pickles. I'll make pickles to eat. Just a white flour steamed bun,
I really can’t eat it.”
"Go get it yourself." Shi Ke took a bite of the steamed shrimp dumpling and tasted it slowly.
"I don't know where the pickles are. If you don't go, I'll go in and look around! Don't hold me back if you want to tidy up the kitchen." Liang Cai smiled innocently.
"Okay, ancestor, I'll get it. You can just wait here." Shi Ke didn't taste it anymore. He chewed the shrimp dumplings casually, swallowed them in surrender, and went to the kitchen refrigerator to get specially made fried pickles.
For this reason, Shi Ke ate another basket of white flour steamed buns. In fact, one basket only contained two fist-sized steamed buns. The steamed buns were wrapped with pickles, a simple and economical dish. It was just a simple combination of two ordinary dishes.
It bursts out with a strange charm, food is so simple.
After the two of them solved the breakfast problem, someone came, special correspondent Mitsuru Hayatsuda.
"Haozuda, you're so early. I just finished my breakfast. Do you want some too, my acquaintance, I'll give you a 50% discount." Shi Ke greeted him and showed it to him.
Empty cage.
"Well...then I'll have one too."
"What do you want to eat? I have pork steamed buns, shredded pork buns with pickled vegetables, mapo tofu buns, braised tofu buns, green onion tofu buns, pickled tofu buns..."
"Wait a minute! Senior Shi Ke, why are there so many tofu buns?"
"I like to eat tofu buns. Don't interrupt me, I haven't finished talking about steamed buns yet. There are also tofu buns with vermicelli, Goubuli meat buns, beef soup buns, butter thousand-sheet buns, special bean paste buns, and crab meat dumplings.
Buns, white sugar pumpkin buns, green vegetable and radish buns, sweet shredded radish buns, that’s all for now. What do you want? If you don’t want to eat buns, I have other ones. There are also many dumplings, siomai, shrimp steamed dumplings, pork steamed dumplings,
Beef steamed dumplings, glutinous rice siomai, and diced pork siomai are all available. I have a lot of snack-type breakfasts here. Are there any you like?"
"Senior Shike, I'm doing a live broadcast here, and we got an incredible opening." Mitsuru Hayatsuda smiled silly.
"I asked you if you would like some. Don't even skip breakfast because of work."
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Shi Ke. However, I have already eaten."
"Well... forget it. I'll give you a snack. Since it's a live broadcast, it's perfect if you eat it for the audience to see! It's not much, so if you have some snacks, you should still be able to eat it, right?" Shi Ke handed over a covered one with a lid.
The cage was given to Hayatsuda Mitsuru.
"Well, you're welcome. Can I go in and eat? It's more convenient to live stream." Hayatsuda Mitsuru took the basket and pointed to the store.
"Of course. Didn't I give you the exclusive interview? Do whatever makes you feel comfortable. Just treat it as your own home."
"Then I'll go in. Senior Shike, thank you." Hayatsuda Mitsuru entered the store, found a location with better lighting, set up a camera facing the cage on the table, and sat down.
"Huh!" He took a deep breath and opened the lid of the cage.
Colorful faint light emanated faintly, and Hayatsuda Mitsuru was stunned.
At the same time, the foragers who were watching the live broadcast in the square and deciding their breakfast goals were also stunned.
"Kawaii!!!" All the girls among them had love eyes.
In the cage, three little cuties were sleeping next to each other, looking so naive. The first one had orange-red skin and was completely hairless. Its small and exquisite paws were resting under its smooth jaws, and its small mouth was slightly open, revealing a small mouth.
There are two small tiger teeth, and a fiery red flame is beating vividly at the end of the short and fat tail. The middle one is green all over, sleeping on its stomach, with a fat and short paw stretched into its mouth, looking like a baby.
It felt like gnawing on claws, and there was something green and garlic-like on its back, and two thin vine whips tied a small and exquisite bow on its back. The third one, covered with a bright red turtle shell,
The blue head was pillowed behind the head by fat blue paws, and then he lay on his back with his legs crossed and leaned on the second little cutie, with a pair of handsome black thunderbolt sunglasses on his face, looking relaxed and content.
This is Shi Ke’s flagship snack today. One of the mimicry buns, Elf Yu Sanjia.
"Ah! Senior Shishi Shike! What you are making is a handicraft! How can people eat such a cute shape?" Hayatsuda Mitsuru went crazy.
"It's okay. After you eat it, you will say it tastes really good." Shi Ke glanced at him and shrugged.
As for Mouri Kogoro now, he is crying in the kitchen and carefully making Pokemon buns one by one according to the recipe given to him by Shi Ke.
Someone may ask, what is there to cry about?
In addition to Pokemon, Shi Ke also prepared various Q-version bun shapes from the Digimon series and the Wild Animal series for him. Counting one bag of each type, the total number is nearly a thousand. Can you not cry? I also want to add
Different fillings... Mouri Kogoro already regretted staying in the kitchen in the morning and not receiving guests.
