Abandoned Women: The First Secret Service Concubine

Chapter 70
The cook stood by and watched Feng Yao demonstrate.When the chicken was put into the soup and the delicious and fragrant soup was steamed, Feng Yao put the thinly stretched noodles into it and started to cook.In a short time, a pot of ramen noodles with delicious flavor and color is ready.

Feng Yao brought out three bowls, Su Xingyan and the cook got a big bowl, and Doudou got a small bowl.Then he turned back to the stove and started frying potatoes and chicken nuggets.

"Sucking——" Su Xingyan ate the ramen, and felt that although it wasn't beef, it tasted good.Then he turned his head to look at the cook next to him, and saw that the cook was eating ramen seriously with a very devout expression, and couldn't help but secretly laughed.

I told them earlier that there are heaven and man outside the sky and there are people outside the sky, but they just didn't believe it. This time you know how powerful it is, right?After eating half a bowl of ramen in a few mouthfuls, Su Xingyan looked up at Feng Yao and asked, "Sister, didn't you say there are delicious ones? Why don't you come up?"

At this time, Feng Yao was holding a preserved egg and was peeling it. Hearing this, she said without looking back: "Wait, it will be ready soon."

Su Xingyan was curious, so he couldn't help standing up and leaning towards the stove.I saw Feng Yao holding a duck egg whose shell had changed color, lightly peeling off the big head of the egg, then knocking out a small hole in the small end, and blowing air into the small hole with her mouth.Immediately, the shell of the duck egg was almost unbroken, and the whole egg had fallen off and fell into Feng Yao's white palm.

A shiny black egg with white patterns painted on it, exuding a special fragrance, lay in Feng Yao's palm.Looking at this unusually beautiful egg, Su Xingyan couldn't help being stunned: "This, what kind of egg is this?"

"This is called preserved egg." Feng Yao said, walked into the sewing basket, took out a thin thread, bit one end with her teeth, and pulled the other end tightly with her left hand, and divided the peeled egg on the thread with her right hand. Cut, cut preserved eggs into pieces, fast and complete.

Su Xingyan saw the beautiful egg being chopped up like this, and for some reason felt a little bit of reluctance in his heart.Then, I saw that the cut egg yolk was blue-black on the outside and orange-red on the center, with beautiful patterns on the cross-section, and I couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.Is such a thing with good color, aroma, taste and shape really for eating?

Feng Yao placed the sliced ​​preserved eggs on the plate, looked up and saw Su Xingyan's dull appearance, she couldn't help laughing, "No matter how beautiful an egg is, it's also an egg, and it's just for eating. Young Master Su is so reluctant, Could it be that you want to take it home and make an offering?"

Su Xingyan felt a little embarrassed by these words, touched the tip of his nose, but asked: "Why does this preserved egg look like this? I think the size of this egg looks like a duck egg? Why is it wrapped in mud? Became like this?"

Doudou also ran over, stood on tiptoe and looked into the plate.Seeing that the egg was born strangely, I was always wondering: "Mother, why are the eggs we ate before all white, but this one is black? Is it because it is cooked?"

The little guy is still thinking about what Feng Yao said before when he taught him to eat Hei Tiantian, "the black ones are ripe, and the blue ones are not yet ripe".Feng Yao was stunned for a moment before she understood, and she was amused immediately: "No, because it was affected by something, so it changed its appearance."

Take ginger and coriander, wash and chop finely, then take a small bowl, put chopped ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, and salt.After mixing well, Feng Yao poured the seasoning sauce evenly on the preserved eggs, and finally sprinkled with chopped coriander: "It's ready to eat!"

Put the prepared preserved eggs in ginger sauce on the table, then walk to the stove, lift the lid of the pot and put out a plate of stewed chicken nuggets with potatoes.He took another bowl by himself, picked out the big yellow chicken leg, and brought it to Doudou: "Eat it quickly."

"Yeah!" Doudou twitched her little nose, took the bowl and almost buried her face in it, stretched out her tender little hand, grabbed the side of the chicken leg, and gnawed it down.Shaking his head, he took a bite of the big chicken leg soaked in fragrant vegetable juice, his little face was full of satisfaction.

I saw Doudou burying her head in eating, blowing on her burned fingers from time to time, looking very happy.In the eyes of Su Xingyan, I couldn't help but feel a little strange.He looked up and saw that Fengyao mother and son seemed to be used to it, which made him feel an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Why don't you eat it? Try the mud dumpling in your mouth, is it delicious?" Feng Yao moved her chopsticks first, picked up a piece of preserved egg, dipped it in ginger juice and put it into her mouth.Immediately, a choking smell lingered in the mouth, but after a while, it gradually transformed into a strange scent, lingering on the tip of the tongue for a long time.

Feng Yao narrowed her eyes slightly, eating the first batch of preserved eggs she had ever made with some enjoyment.That's right, she also loved to eat it in her previous life, but she hadn't marinated it herself, this time was the first time.I didn't expect to do it successfully the first time, how could this make Feng Yao unhappy?

Seeing that Feng Yao enjoyed it so much, Su Xingyan also picked up a piece of preserved egg, followed her example, dipped it in ginger juice, and put it in his mouth.The next moment, Su Xingyan opened his eyes wide, and spat out with a "poof": "This, what is this smell?"

It's choking and punchy, spicy and astringent, it's unpalatable!
Su Xingyan looked at Feng Yao incomprehensibly: "Sister, how can you eat it? Is this a villain?" He smacked his lips, feeling that the bitter taste still remained on his taste buds, and quickly lowered his head and took a sip The soup finally washed away the bitterness.

"You don't like it?" Feng Yao was not surprised by his reaction, picked up another preserved egg with chopsticks, put it in her mouth and began to chew.Preserved eggs have a special taste, and were complained by foreign friends as a dark dish in the previous life.

Thinking of this, Feng Yao felt a little sympathetic: "Since you can't eat it, then that's all."

The cook sitting next to Su Xingyan, who had already eaten two yuan at this time, praised repeatedly: "Wonderful! Wonderful!"

"Oh? Mister likes the preserved eggs I made?" Seeing that someone finally likes to eat them, Feng Yao couldn't help being happy.

The cook said: "When I first tasted it, it was acrid and astringent, but after chewing, the fragrance lingers on my lips and teeth, making it hard to give up."

"That's right!" Feng Yao couldn't help feeling like she had found a confidant when she heard this.The taste of preserved egg is like this, many people don't feel how delicious it is at the first bite, but after a few more tastes, they fall in love with this taste.

Su Xingyan smacked his lips, and took another piece unconvinced.This time he resisted the choking smell and did not spit it out, but chewed slowly.I just feel that the tendons are smooth and tender, as if the skin is jelly. Although it is still astringent, it is better than when I just ate it.

He swallowed and took another chopstick.This time, the taste was better.When the four or five yuan went down, Su Xingyan was already addicted and couldn't extricate himself.However, when he stretched out his chopsticks at this time, Feng Yao blocked him: "You have eaten a lot, we still have to eat the rest."

Seeing that Doudou had a piece of preserved egg in his mouth, and watched him eat one piece after another, Su Xingyan felt ashamed and said, "I'm sorry, I'm addicted to eating."

While he was breathing a sigh of relief, the cook next to him quickly picked up two chopsticks and stuffed them into his mouth, lest the young master threaten him and ask him to give up his share.Sure enough, as soon as he stuffed it into his mouth, Su Xingyan turned his head and glared at him.The cook chuckled, the ones that were eaten in his mouth were the most worthwhile, and he only wanted to feast on Su Xing's foolishness.

"Sister, how did you do it?" Su Xingyan couldn't help asking curiously, it's unbelievable to be able to marinate Bai Shengsheng's eggs like this!

Feng Yao picked up a small piece of preserved egg, dipped it in the soup, fed it to Doudou's mouth, and said, "This is a business secret, but I can't tell you."

"Ah?" Su Xingyan suddenly thought of it, couldn't help feeling a little mad, thumped the table and said, "Sister, who is the person you hate? Why doesn't he do business with the whole Zhiwei Building just because of him?"

Feng Yao smiled faintly, raised her face to look at him, and half-jokingly said: "What? If you don't do this business, you know that Weilou will have nothing to eat?"

"It's more than just this one business?" Su Xingyan was born in a merchant's family, and he has been fascinated by it since childhood. He has a clear eye for business, and some hate iron and steel: "Obviously we got along well before, and you also said You will continue to do business with us in the future, but since you heard about the Nangong family, you have stopped doing it. You know so many things, if you don't cooperate with us, but cooperate with others, won't it kill us? "

Doudou held a chewy and tender preserved egg in her mouth, and looked at Su Xingyan with her big black eyes blinking.

"You tell me who that person is, and I'll take his head to make amends for you!" Su Xingyan said seriously.Half of this statement is for Zhiweilou's business, and the other half is to relieve Feng Yao's anger.From his point of view, Feng Yao was born in a small mountain village. Although she has good skills, she has only so many contacts.If someone offends someone, even if they have some backing, Zhiweilou can still win the fight with his strength.How could she have imagined that what Feng Yao had to deal with was not a single person, but a big force?

Feng Yao didn't want Su Xingyan to know this, firstly, it would be of no benefit to him, and secondly, it would be of no help to her if he knew it, so she said flatly: "It's getting late, since you guys finished your meal, please go your own way." Bar."

The money and the goods are cleared, and the meal is also invited. I am very sorry for him.After Feng Yao finished speaking, she lowered her eyes, picked up the bowl and ate quietly.

Su Xingyan was stunned for a moment, looking at Feng Yao's soft and charming face with a calm demeanor, he couldn't help but shut his mouth.After a while, he laughed again, but said to Doudou, "Doudou, do you want to ride in uncle's big carriage and go to the city?"

Feng Yao is his friend, and he will not give up.As for the business matter, he will also work hard to fight for it.The so-called being worthy of Tathagata and worthy of Qing means that he will not stop being friends with her because she refuses to do business, nor will he force her to do business with Zhiweilou because of being friends with her.Su Xingyan asked himself, frankly.

"Today is the Empress's birthday. The whole world celebrates it. The city is extremely lively." Su Xingyan smiled and teased Doudou, "How about I take you to see a performance?"

"Is it okay?" Although Doudou didn't know what singing was, it sounded like fun.Immediately her eyes lit up, she happily put down her chopsticks, twisted her body and pulled Feng Yao's clothes and said, "Mother, shall we go to the city to play with uncle?"

Looking at Doudou's bright eyes full of expectation, Feng Yao remembered that Doudou had never entered the city before when she grew to such a large size.I couldn't help feeling soft in my heart, and said: "Okay." Anyway, Su Xingyan is very trustworthy, so there is no need to be wary.Then he raised his head and smiled at Su Xingyan: "Then thank you very much."

"Why are you being polite? You are my sister, so I naturally have to take care of you." Su Xingyan said, "Anyway, the days are long in summer, so I'll take you back in the evening after you play all afternoon."
