Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 6 Small Wontons

Gu Xiang really made up his mind to listen to his parents and live a serious life.

It's a pity that in only two days, I have so much regret for my "docile and obedient".

Her father really deserves to be a well-known filial wife and filial son in the village. He did his best for his daughter, but he did his best too much. It took Gu Xiang time to cook a small wonton, and he met the "carpenter" Orion ''Scholar'' 'Little Official' and other young men of all kinds.

I don't know where Gu Laoshi found so many in just two days, and there is another one who works as a jailer in the county government prison, which Gu Laoshi is most optimistic about.

Although the identity of the jailer is not on the table, but to ordinary people like them, that is "official", with a natural golden light. Compared with the word "official", the disadvantage of children not being able to take the imperial examination is really nothing, they are all ordinary people, None of them are too ambitious.

It's just that these young men are too ordinary.

Born in modern times, with advanced information, even an ordinary student in an ivory tower like Gu Xiang can be regarded as well-informed.

There are good men in the world, good-looking, extremely intelligent, even if I don't have them around, I have seen countless of them on the TV network.

Therefore, the so-called outstanding youngsters that can be found in this village seem too ordinary.

Gu Xiang's head was wrapped in a clean blue cloth turban, his fingernails were also clean, and there was no stain on his apron. He was clearly guarding the stove, but his whole body was refreshed. The ingredients are rolled into the thin and almost transparent skin, and a pretty little wonton is wrapped in an instant.

Since Gu Laoshi received the reward from the county government, their family has been very eye-catching in Guzhuang. Gu Xiang's story of "fish balls saving lives" has almost become a hot topic of gossip among the villagers of Guzhuang, and it has spread to the county.

Her skill of cooking simple tea and light rice into delicacies is even more famous.

Because the story of "fish balls saving lives" is quite legendary, the people of Ah Zheng's natal family also changed their minds, and stopped talking about marrying and following their husbands, and took Ah Zheng back to her natal family. Not long after, some enthusiastic people spread the news and found A Zheng's husband Mao Chong was killed, and A Zheng's two elder brothers came to him, beat up the bastard, and took back A Zheng's dowry money.

Of course, this is all for later. At this time, Gu Xiang is trying his best to start a snack business. .

That day, Little Brother Yi made a start, and the other laborers, smelling the aroma of the rice, also eagerly begged to come to the door, carrying firewood and carrying some corn in order to exchange for some rations.

Gu Xiang is serious about selling food on the construction site, and sells whatever he eats every day, and anyone who wants to eat has to make a reservation in advance.

There are sixteen reservations today.

Gu Xiang thought about it for a long time, and the first time to set up a stall is to make wontons, which are the most error-prone. There are soup and water, suitable for all ages, and few people don't like it.

A bowl of two pennies, ten for a bowl.

The stuffing is wild vegetables.

The fresh and tender wild vegetables are served with shrimp skins, and then topped with bird eggs. In addition to minced green onion, ginger and garlic, only a little more sauce is added.

As soon as the sauce is added, the filling is completely transformed.

This sauce is made by Gu Xiang himself.

When she was in college, she liked to volunteer at the shelter for stray pets every holiday. Aunt Zhang at the shelter was very good at making sauce. The fillings of wontons can also be put, even if you just mix it with white rice, it will be very fragrant, and it will be delicious no matter what.

Aunt Zhang saw that Gu Xiang liked it very much, so she taught her the recipe. There are several flavors, spicy and not spicy, minced meat, mushrooms, etc. Since then, Gu Xiang has made it every year.During her four years of university life, she had a good relationship with her life teacher, most of which was due to this sauce.

Now this sauce has made great contributions to her. She didn't dare to use minced meat. Just a little mushroom sauce can enhance the freshness and flavor. You don't need to eat it. The color of the mixed wonton filling is already very attractive.

A dozen laborers who had lined up early in the morning tiptoed to look around, all of them groaning.

"Sanniang, hurry up. Your uncle is going to starve to death."

Gu Xiang smiled lightly: "Good morning."

The colorful, small and cute wontons are boiled in boiling water, put into a pottery bowl, add some dried vegetables, coriander, green onion, and scoop up a spoonful of specially cooked, clear broth.

Zhang Zhu picked it up quickly, scooped up a small wonton and took a bite. He ate too fast, he was so hot that he hopped his feet, but he was not willing to vomit. He exhaled several times in succession. The delicious soup melted on the tip of his tongue. I couldn't help but ate another one, and another one, and then I was a little satisfied. I picked up the bowl and took a sip of the soup.

"It's really so delicious? Brother Zhang, you are exaggerating too much."

Seeing him eating so deliciously, the nearby laborers couldn't help but become hungrier.

Zhang Zhu turned a deaf ear to it, and while eating, took out another two pennies from his sleeve and threw it into the bamboo basket on the stone slab beside the stove, mumbled in his mouth, obviously wanting another bowl.

Gu Xiang shook his head with a smile, picked up the copper coins and stuffed them back: "I will make them for Uncle Zhang tomorrow. I don't have much prepared today, not enough."

Seeing other people swarming up and pushing him aside, Zhang Zhu looked sad, and the few wontons left in the bowl immediately became precious. He reluctantly poured all the wontons into his food box, and broke off another piece of steamed bun Wipe the bowl clean and eat carefully.

He wanted to bring back the remaining few for his mother-in-law to taste.

"They're all from the same village, and they still need two cents for a bowl. It's really heartbreaking, and there are still people eating it. There are all kinds of fools."

Suddenly, someone behind him snorted strangely.

Gu Xiang was taken aback for a moment, he couldn't believe it, and said in shock: "Two cents a bowl... very expensive!?"

With a shake of her spoon, she almost poured the soup on the ground, and Sun Lizheng, who was staring at her wonton, was so frightened that she almost rushed over: "Amitabha, Sanniang, don't leak the soup for me."

When his wontons went into the bowl smoothly, Sun Li was turning his head and glaring at him angrily: "Who the fuck is that stupid? It costs two cents to buy a bowl of plain noodles. Sanniang's wontons sell for two cents. That's to take care of the folks. If anyone Rubbish talk ruins the ethos of my Gu Zhuang, let's see how I deal with him!"

"No way, Sanniang's wontons are worth ten cents. What kind of craftsmanship is Sanniang's? A ghost who stepped on the Palace of the King of Hell will crawl back to the world after smelling the food made by Sanniang."

Zhang Zhu laughed loudly, and the others responded one after another. Qiqi turned his head to see which unsightly provocateur was, and at a glance he distinguished Li Zijun's mother-in-law, Wang Shi, from the crowd.

Sun Lizheng frowned, and said angrily: "Your man and son have both educated anyway, why are you so unreasonable? Who doesn't know how Gu Laoshi's family has taken care of your family these years? Who in Guzhuang doesn't know? If you don't say gratitude, come The yin and yang are getting angry, that's fine, if you don't want to part with two pennies, just go and don't get in the way."

Wang turned her head, her eyes were red with anger, and she was trembling all over. She always felt that the vulgar men next to her looked at her with ironic and strange eyes, and they didn't dare to talk back to Li Zheng, so they lowered their heads and covered their faces in shame and walked away.

Brother Jun was getting thinner and thinner during this period, and she was also dizzy from hunger. She had no oil and water in her stomach for several days and couldn't bear it today. Thinking that Gu Laoshi could find fish from the river, she also went to the river to try it. As a result, except for sweating from exhaustion, she didn't even touch a fish hair. She happened to see Gu Xiang selling wontons by the river. She lost her mind and couldn't help complaining for a moment. This humiliation, sooner or later...

boom--

"Ouch!"

As soon as Aunt Wang turned around, she bumped into someone. She stumbled, her jaw hurt when she hit the ground, and she felt her teeth were moving. She looked up and saw that it was Zhou Dong, the stupid kid from the Zhou family. Let's go, this boy from the Zhou family is the jailer in the cell, very fierce.
