Border Cook

Chapter 66 Pocket Bun

Madam Xia is a kind person. As my mother said, it is impossible for her to say those words.

The only one who can say these words is Sun Gousheng.

Not only did he use him as a weapon, he also took the opportunity to insult him and his mother.

This kind of person is the most hateful!
Wu Xiong became angrier the more he thought about it, so he raised his leg and kicked him again. To be fair, he did not forget Tian Dazhuang's part.

Sun Gousheng and Tian Dazhuang, who had both been beaten, did not dare to say a word and did not dare to get up from the ground, for fear that they would be kicked again if they stood up.

"You're trying to be smart in front of me!" Wu Xiong was still furious, but he also felt that beating people up in the street was a bit too ostentatious, so he asked the other two to drag Sun Gousheng and Tian Dazhuang back to the backyard of the gambling house.

The thick and strong whip was raised high and fell heavily.

After a few hits, the two men's clothes were torn, their skin was torn, and they cried for their parents, shouting that they would never do it again and begged Wu Xiong to forgive them this time.

Wu Xiong turned a deaf ear and just dipped the whip in salt water.

The loud sound of whips and wailing could be heard in front, causing the shopkeeper Ge of Sifang Casino to frown. He raised his hand and called over a waiter, "What happened back there?"

"It seems that Sun Gousheng and Tian Dazhuang did something wrong, and Brother Xiong is punishing them." The young man answered truthfully. Hearing the noise behind him, his eyelids twitched in shock. "It seems that he was a little too harsh."

"Wu Xiong knows how to act in moderation, just let him do what he wants." Shopkeeper Ge disagreed.

Not to mention that Wu Xiong has been working in the gambling house for so many years, and he has never failed to keep his promises, and he can always explain it reasonably.

It must be the fault of those two people that made him so angry.

"But...what if someone dies?" The young man felt a little uneasy.

"Let's not talk about the fact that these two people are refugees, without household registration and family, so no one will pursue them." Shopkeeper Ge smiled, rubbed the white jade handle in his hand, and said lightly, "Even if someone pursues them, would our Sifang Casino be afraid of this?"

"What the shopkeeper said is right." The young man lowered his head and stopped talking.

Han stayed at the stall for a while, ate another serving of cold noodles, and then left.

At about the same time as usual, Xia Mingyue and others closed their stall and went back.

Along the way, they talked about the incident that had happened earlier.

"Those two black-hearted beasts, they've tried to cause trouble again and again but failed, and now they're here again!" Mrs. Lu spat angrily, "That Wu Xiong is also a jerk, he believes whatever others say, and he can't tell right from wrong."

"Fortunately, Aunt Han is here." Xia Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

She was also very scared about what happened today.

Ruffians and bullies have always been the most troublesome thing since ancient times. If Wu Xiong really targets you, this food stall will definitely not be able to open.

"That's right. Fortunately, Aunt Han is here." Mrs. Lu nodded repeatedly. "But if you ask my sister-in-law, it's a good thing that you helped Aunt Han earlier. Good people will be rewarded."

Indeed, a cycle of cause and effect.

The kindness you have shown before will always be repaid to you in various ways without you noticing.

"It's just that those two people didn't get punished." Jiang Zhuguo was also quite angry, "What a pity."

"I think there will be punishment." Xia Mingyue said in a deep voice, "Since Wu Xiong has a hot temper that is easily ignited, and he lost so much face in front of Aunt Han today, he will definitely not let those two people go easily."

"That's true." Mrs. Lu nodded in agreement. We must teach those two bastards a lesson!
After arriving home, they were busy again. A little later, Xia Mingyue started to prepare dinner.

After the experience of overeating a few days ago, Xia Mingyue planned to make a lighter dinner.

Cornmeal is cooked into golden and sticky porridge. Beat the eggs, season them and spread them in a frying pan to make an omelet. Cut them into thin strips and stir-fry them with shredded carrots and zucchini to make a light and delicious dish.

After finishing all these, the dough that had just been made with boiling water was almost ready to rise.

Knead the dough into small pieces, roll them into long oval shapes, evenly spread the center with a mixture of peanut oil and flour in a 1:1 ratio of shortening, wrap it up, and roll it into an oval pancake again.

Fry the pancakes in a lightly greased pan until both sides are golden brown. When they are fully cooked, take them out and cut them in the middle...

The pancake spread with oil is completely hollow in the middle, shaped like a pocket. Use chopsticks to fill it with all the fried mixed vegetables, and each pocket steamed bun is ready.

The white and slightly browned steamed buns are paired with the golden shredded eggs, the orange shredded carrots, the tender green zucchini, and a bowl of yellow cornmeal porridge...

Just looking at it makes me feel that it is a feast for the eyes.

Take a bite, the pocket steamed bun is slightly crispy on the outside and soft and tender on the inside, the stir-fried vegetables are light and refreshing, and the cornmeal porridge is rich and fragrant...

delicious!

Xia Mingyue felt a little full again tonight.

Then the scene of Xia Mingyue strolling in the yard again appeared.

Wu Jin: "..."

This is probably the world of humans.

The sky darkened and the night gradually enveloped the entire earth.

After Jiang Zhuguo tidied up, he went to close the yard door.

"Wait a minute!"

A rough voice sounded, and Jiang Zhuguo's hands trembled with fear. When he raised his head again, he saw a bearded face.

Jiang Zhuguo was caught off guard and took several steps back in fright before he managed to steady himself.

Seeing this, Wu Jin ran up and barked wildly at the uninvited guest, with his short hair standing up, ready for a fight at any time.

"I'm sorry for scaring you, I didn't mean it." Wu Xiong was immediately embarrassed and apologized repeatedly. He also hurriedly stated his purpose, "Is Madam Xia at home? I came here specially to apologize to you for disturbing you today."

Xia Mingyue had been attracted by the noise. When she heard Wu Xiong say this, she welcomed him to the yard and sat him down, and asked Jiang Zhuguo to pour her a cup of tea.

"Brother Wu, you are too polite. Brother Wu has already apologized for what happened today and paid compensation." Xia Mingyue said, "Brother Wu was also deceived by someone, so there is a reason for it."

"I was indeed deceived..." Wu Xiong still looked guilty when he mentioned this. "But don't worry, Madam Xia. I have beaten them both severely. I guarantee that they will not be able to get out of bed for a month, and they will not dare to disturb you in the future."

"I have also asked other brothers to spread the word that Madam Xia's Xia Ji is under the protection of me, Wu Xiong. From now on, the hooligans around will not dare to cause trouble again."

"In addition, Madam Xia was kind-hearted last time. When my mother sprained her ankle, she took her to see a doctor and sent her home. I have been thinking about her all the time, but my mother refused to tell me. I also didn't know that this kind-hearted person was Madam Xia. Now that I know, I come to thank Madam Xia. These are some of the best cakes I bought from Zhao's Cake Shop. I hope Madam Xia won't dislike them..."
