Chapter 90 Captured
Gu Rao said calmly, "That's chicken essence, which can add flavor to food."

Zhang Cuihua was stunned.

"Chicken essence? I don't think I've heard of it before."

In fact, Yu Xiang hadn't seen it either, but she soon found a reason for herself, and said to Zhang Cuihua, "There's nothing to make a fuss about, we country folks, we haven't seen many."

"The cooking methods of big families are really different from ours. Looking at the steps, I was dazzled by the many steps. I didn't remember it even after reading it."

Gu Rao said, "I made the chicken essence myself, and I didn't sell it outside. I'll pack a little for each of you later. The production process is a bit troublesome, and the ingredients for making chicken essence are also a bit expensive, so I may not be able to pack much for you. Just don’t think too little.”

Zhang Cuihua quickly waved her hands.

"Since it's so expensive and troublesome to make, don't give it to us. You can keep it for yourself."

Yu Xiang said to Zhang Cuihua, "If you don't want it, I will."

It's fine to be courteous to Gu Rao, why did you refuse even to help her?

Gu Rao smiled and said, "We all have a share."

Zhang Cuihua didn't refuse anymore.

"Then I won't be polite to you anymore." But I was thinking in my heart, I can't let the Bieye family suffer a lot by giving away some more things tomorrow.

Gu Rao looked at the potatoes that Xu Yuanyuan had peeled, took out some of them, and said to Xu Yuanyuan, "Cut the rest into shreds."

Xu Yuanyuan looked at Zhang Cuihua.

Zhang Cuihua said, "Didn't you cut potato shreds at home? The knife skills should be passable. Cut slowly. If you can't cut it well, I will do it again."

Xu Yuanyuan had no choice but to wash the potatoes, and then tied an apron to the stove to shred the potatoes.

Gu Rao started making tamales.

It's no wonder that the good pork belly slices are cut into thin slices, put into a basin, pour cooking wine, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and pepper, stir well, and marinate for about an hour.

During the marinating time, wash and cut the potatoes for side dishes into small pieces.

Next prepare the steamed meat rice noodles.

The ingredients used for steamed meat and rice noodles are rice, glutinous rice, star anise, fragrant leaves, peppercorns, fennel, and dried chili. First, put the rice, glutinous rice, and spices into the pot and fry slowly over low heat. After the rice grains turn yellow, add dried chili and continue to stir. Stir-fry for a while, turn off the heat, cool thoroughly, put it into a stone mortar and pound it into powder.

Add the marinated meat slices to the steamed meat rice noodles, and grasp them evenly with your hands while cooking. Each slice of meat is coated with flour, with the skin facing down, and the meat is neatly spread in the steaming bowl one by one.

Put the cut potato pieces into the steaming bowl covered with meat, sprinkle a small amount of salt, and then sprinkle some steamed meat powder into it, and steam it in the pot for an hour.

When making steamed pork, a pot of rice was also steamed in the side pot. The rice was almost cooked at this moment. Instead of continuing to make potato shredded cakes, Gu Rao fried a plate of hot and sour potato shreds and a pot of sauerkraut tofu. soup.

"Let's have dinner first."

Today's dinner is a pot of steamed pork, a plate of steamed white, a plate of hot and sour potato shreds, and a pot of sauerkraut tofu soup, enough for five people.

After the food was served, Gu Rao took off his apron and went to the door to call Bie Ye to come in for dinner, "There are not many people at the moment, come in and have dinner together, guests will call us when they come."

During this period of time, the customers have almost stabilized. Even if the boss is not guarding the stall, as long as the door is open and the stall is displayed, you can know that they are still open for business.

Bie Ye responded, took the money jar into the house and put it away before washing his hands and sitting down to eat.

Yu Xiang first ate a piece of steamed roasted white meat, the meat was fatty but not greasy, and the soft and rotten taste was amazing, and she was full of praise for Gu Rao's cooking skills.

"After eating the steamed roasted rice you made, I feel that all the steamed steamed roasted rice I have eaten in my previous life was for nothing. I have eaten so many banquets, but the steamed roasted rice made by you is the best!"

I ate another piece of steamed pork, the meat was fat but not greasy in the mouth, soft and glutinous, it melted in the mouth, and the aftertaste was endless in the mouth after swallowing.

"In the future, my family will serve wine, and I must invite you to be the chef!"

Gu Rao said modestly, "I can only cook some home-cooked dishes, and I'm not qualified to be a chef, so don't make fun of me, Aunt Yu."

Yu Xiang affirmed, "Steamed roasted white and steamed pork with rice flour are both big dishes. Most people are only willing to cook them during festivals or banquets. If you know how to cook these two dishes, you can already be a chef."

Zhang Cuihua also echoed, "Mr. Gu, don't be modest." She glanced at Xu Yuanyuan and said with a smile, "In the future, my Yuanyuan family will hold a wedding, and I will invite you to be the chef."

Xu Yuanyuan said angrily, "Mother, you can talk as soon as you talk, why are you making fun of me? I don't want to get married yet, and there is no way to hold a wedding party!"

When he said this, he looked at Bieye again.

I saw him focus on eating, and occasionally pick up food for Gu Rao, and Gu Rao would also pick up food for him. The husband and wife occasionally looked at each other, with tenderness between their eyebrows and eyes.

It hurt her heart to see it.

The food that I thought was delicious at first was a bit tasteless at this time.

Xu Yuanyuan was originally very proud of her cooking skills, thinking that although she was not as beautiful as Gu Rao, she would definitely beat her by a large margin in terms of cooking skills, and would take care of men better than Gu Rao.

But now, that pride is gone.

Not only is Gu Rao good-looking, but she is also good at cooking. How can such a woman not be liked by men?
Brother Bie's heart must have been captured by Gu Rao long ago, right?

Do you still have a chance?
After dinner.

Gu Rao filled a small jar of chicken essence for Zhang Cuihua and Yu Xiang, and then said, "My husband and I will fry the potato shredded pancakes at home slowly. You should go back to the village before it gets dark. You can come here before midnight tomorrow." ?"

Zhang Cuihua took it with both hands and said, "Let me wash the dishes first."

Gu Rao stopped him, "There aren't many people, so I'll wash it myself. If I delay, I won't be able to leave after dark. There is a guest bedroom on the second floor, but there is only one quilt at home."

Zhang Cuihua had no choice but to give up.

"Then we'll go."

Bieye sent the three of them to the entrance of the village, when the ox carts had already left.

Zhang Cuihua said to Bie Ye, "Let's send it here. You can go back by yourself. We usually walk by ourselves when we go to the market. I'm used to it. I'll be home in less than half an hour."

Bieye watched them leave, and turned back when they were no longer in sight.
-
After Gu Rao finished washing the dishes, she closed the stall early, closed the door halfway, boiled a pot of hot water, and brought the bathroom to the bathroom to take a good bath.

When he saw Bie Ye came back, he asked him to close the courtyard door, and only after the courtyard door was locked from the inside, did he enter the bathroom with confidence.

Maybe it was because she was too tired today, Gu Rao fell asleep after soaking in the bathtub.

When he woke up again, the sky outside was dark blue, maybe he heard her movement, Bie Ye opened his eyes and asked, "Can't sleep?"

Gu Rao was still a little confused at this moment.

"Is it almost dawn?"

Bie Ye was silent for a while.

"It's just dark."

Gu Rao's consciousness gradually became clear, and she suddenly realized that she was taking a bath before, and then fell asleep in the tub?
How did you lie on the bed?
He reached out to touch his hair, it was already dry, and touched his collar, but fortunately he was wearing a layer of unlined clothing.

No need to think about who helped her put on her clothes, who helped her dry her hair, and then carried her to the bed.

As soon as he thought of seeing him naked, his face became hot, and he asked in a low voice, "I fell asleep, why didn't you wake me up?"

Bie Ye said, "I don't want to disturb you."
