Gu Huaibang asked in a low voice: "Is it done? It's pretty fast!"
Gu Qi took a look and didn't know when he had returned to the yard. Baba looked at the master opposite and marveled. Was the master attracted by the smell of meat and came out of the house again?
With his master's determination, he had never seen him behave like this, but he didn't dare to laugh for fear of being ripped off, because he knew the reason.
Anyway, since his fifth brother was sent to Kuishan to find a miracle doctor, he and his master would rather eat dry food or starve.
As for the food he cooked, let alone the master, he could almost send himself away.
He can cook rice but it's still half-cooked. He can grill meat, but he can only grill the meat until it's done. As for the taste, he doesn't have to be so demanding.
In addition, they didn't have time to find a cook, so they were counting on everything. They hadn't had a good meal in almost three days.
The master himself is good at grilling meat, but he can't bear to eat barbecue all the time. Besides, he still has injuries and residual poisons on his body, so he can't eat this kind of food all day long.
Now Leng Bu Ding's mouth felt hot. He couldn't move his feet anyway, so he just kept looking.
He sat on the wall with a wide view and could see everything clearly. He held a leaf in his mouth and answered his master without looking back: "It looks like it's not ready yet."
"Isn't it better yet?!~"
The hungry uncle Gu Guo could not lie down due to the delicious smell, so he simply got up to see if he could eat it, but the result was not good yet.
So he walked a few steps into the pavilion and sat down on the stone bench. He told the little attendant above him: "Go and make me a pot of tea."
"Ha!?" Did he hear it correctly? Gu Qi plucked his ears. Why is his master so crazy? Not only did he coax a girl to make him noodles in the middle of the night, but now he has to drink tea in the middle of the night?
"Master, are you sure this is midnight? Do you want to drink tea?" Gu Qi asked with a look of disbelief.
"What? Not going?"
"Go!" After receiving the knife-like look in his master's eyes, he dared not to go. Even if his master said he wanted to eat a male lion, he would still have to fight him.
Resigned to his fate, Gu Xiaoqi stood up and went down the wall to make tea.
Lin Xi couldn't care less about the thoughts of the master and servant on the other side of the courtyard wall. She washed the pot next to the stove, added water, lit firewood and prepared it.
The dough simply woke up. There was no way to time it here. She could only roughly estimate the time. If she continued to wake up, the sky would be white and it would be early morning.
She got up and took it to the chopping board and continued to knead it. She pulled the dough while kneading it, and pulled it repeatedly.
Pull out long and thin noodles, and then put the pulled noodles into the pot that has been boiled next to it.
I pulled out a pot full of noodles, covered the pot and cooked it, and hurriedly scooped out the meat and soup from the big pot and set it aside for later use.
Wash the pot and add lard, add sugar and stir-fry until the color turns brown. Pour the meat in and stir-fry. Then add ginger and garlic and continue stir-frying.
When the meat was colored, she immediately poured the broth in, added some green sauce (ancient soy sauce), cooking wine, a little salt, and continued to stew.
While cooking the meat and noodles, she put a small spoonful of lard, an appropriate amount of salt, and a spoonful of dried and ground fish she caught into two large bowls in advance, and then poured boiling water over them. Go in.
When the noodles are cooked, take out the noodles and put them into two large bowls. Wash a handful of green vegetables, throw the green vegetables into the pot and continue cooking, take them out and spread them on the noodles.
When the broth in the pot was almost gone, she scooped two tablespoons of meat onto the noodles, sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions, and a bowl of braised pork noodles was ready.
She put most of the extra meat into a big bowl and kept a small bowl for herself to give to the two little ones to try in the morning.
After scooping two ladles of water into the pot and removing the excess firewood, she walked to the courtyard wall and greeted the young man above:
"My dear, the noodles are ready. Would you mind coming over to pick them up?"
alright! ? After making tea, Gu Qi, who was lying on the courtyard wall with his legs crossed and waiting for a meal, suddenly sat up and said with bright eyes: "I'll get it myself, thank you for your hard work, girl."
He turned over and jumped down and landed in front of Lin Xi. He bowed to Lin Xi with a smile and said thank you: "Thank you, girl!".
Lin Xi was so frightened that she took a few steps back and waved her hands repeatedly: "No thank you, no thank you."
Lin Xi led him to the stove and pointed it out to him: "These two big bowls of noodles and this big bowl of meat are for you. Can I keep this small bowl for the two little kids to taste?" taste"
Lin Xi was a little shy. The meat belonged to others. Although she cooked it, she felt a little embarrassed to take this small bowl of meat.
Gu Qi was stunned when she heard this. She smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Girl, just keep it. You should give it to me. We only have hot food to eat thanks to the girl. We should give it to you."
After saying that, he looked at the small bowl of meat, then at the big bowl given to them, and asked her: "Is it enough to leave just a little? There is so much in this bowl, please leave some more."
"Enough is enough"
Before she could finish speaking, Gu Qi quickly picked up another slightly larger empty bowl on the stove, picked up a spoon and scooped two more spoons for her.
Before Lin Xi could react, he picked up the big bowl of meat and ran towards the courtyard wall. Without stopping, he tapped his feet lightly on the ground and flew directly to the next courtyard. He landed steadily and rushed towards his master.
"This!..." Lin Xi was petrified on the spot, once again surprised by the young man's clean and unsophisticated skills.
"Master, look, it looks delicious." Gu Qi couldn't wait to bring it to his master, who had to swallow several mouthfuls of saliva: "Should we eat it here or go back to the house?"
Gu Huaibang put down the tea cup, gathered his clothes, and said to the little follower who was so anxious that his head was buried in the bowl: "Go inside."
"Hey~" Gu Xiaoqi, who had received the order, ducked and disappeared in front of him with the meat in hand.
The meat and two large bowls of noodle soup were carried away as quickly as possible without even a drop of soup being spilled.
Lin Xi followed behind, trying to stop the person and ask him to take away the remaining meat, ingredients, flour, etc., but before he could say anything, the person disappeared.
Looking at the dark night and the empty courtyard walls.
The evening breeze was blowing, and Lin Xi shook her head helplessly. Forget it, she would help them freeze it in her own well. They probably didn't know how to store it and return it to them tomorrow.
He turned back to the stove, washed the pots and pans, and carefully locked the remaining flour into the cupboard.
The half bowl of meat left for them was enough for them to eat for one day tomorrow. They put it into the bucket with the remaining half of the meat and pulled the rope to the well.
After doing this, Lin Xi returned to the room in the dark.
Thinking that without the threat and worries of the scoundrel Liu San, she could think about how to make money to support her family. She would still have meat to eat tomorrow, and she would be able to have a good sleep tonight. Thinking about it made her feel beautiful, and the fatigue was worth it.
Here the master and the servant returned to the house. After all, Gu Huaibang was well educated. No matter how hungry he was, he still picked out the noodles in a small bowl and ate them elegantly and delicately.
Gu Qike, who was lowering his head, didn't care anymore. He squatted on the ground and was devouring the food in front of three black guards.
As long as he moves a little slower, he may not even have enough soup left.
Lin Xi gave them a lot of noodles, at least enough for four or five grown men. The two large bowls were as big as small basins. To put it more exaggeratedly, they were two ceramic basins for kneading noodles, which was enough to show that The portions are huge.
Gu Huaibang took a mouthful of noodle soup and squinted his eyes instantly. This was for people to eat. As these days passed, he almost couldn't help but want to throw away his little follower.
This noodle is really well made, the taste is comparable to Jingyulou, the meat is fat but not greasy, and the soup is delicious, very good!
Gu Xiaoqi, who was licking the empty bowl, had more than half of the noodles taken away by his three brothers. He only ate a few big mouthfuls and was not full at all. He could definitely have another bowl like this.
The little follower who couldn't compete with his three brothers looked eagerly at his master's bowl of noodles, waiting for his master to finish eating and leave some soup for him.
Gu Huaibang ate more than half of the meat, and what was left in the big bowl, he pushed it to the little follower. He put some of the big bowl of meat into the bowl, and gave the rest to the three shadow guards, who were holding the meat bowls. Disappear into the night.
Gu Qi, who was immersed in making noodles, wished he could grow two more hands to grab some meat.
"Okay, here you go." Seeing that he couldn't grab it, Gu Huaibang deliberately pushed the peeled meat to him.
Gu Qi's eyes filled with tears and he was extremely moved. He would definitely die a horrible death for his master.
Gu Qi, whose mouth was full of oil and still unsatisfied after eating, licked the meat bowl clean, making it shine even brighter than washing it in water.
"Oh~ it's so delicious." Gu Qi said with emotion: "This is what eating is. If in the future, the girl next door with a good heart can cook such meals every day, that would be really great. I can definitely do more work."
Gu Huaipan, who was in a good mood after eating and drinking, couldn't help but glance at the hopeless little follower, and thought to himself: He can eat whatever he can't do, but this is what he wants. He also has this idea now, but he doesn't know if the girl is willing?
