The happy life of peasant woman Wan Xiaoliu

Chapter 70 The Drunk Wan Xiaoliu (1)
"Well, Sister Xiaohong, why don't we hurry up and do it, and I'm afraid Young Master Liu will get mad again when he gets anxious." Wan Xiaoliu has a very bad impression of this Young Master Liu. The kind of affection that was planted by him has disappeared, and all that is left is temper, pettiness, unreasonable troubles, and ignorance.

"Oh, yes, look at me, I'm almost overjoyed to see Fatty Liu being frustrated." The little red servant girl was outspoken, she didn't care about those people, and brought Wan Xiaoliu into the kitchen.

"Miss Xiaoliu, what do you want?" Xiaohong should have some status among the maids in the mansion, as soon as she entered the kitchen, those who did the dishes would shout "Miss Xiaohong".

"I want fresh lotus leaves, rice, and fresh lilies." Wan Xiaoliu rolled up his sleeves, washed his hands by the pool, and hung them without wiping the water.

"Are there any preserved eggs and lean meat?" Wan Xiaoliu looked at the row of ingredients and asked.

"I don't know what the preserved egg the girl is talking about? I haven't heard of it." Everyone looked at each other in silence for a while, and one of them, who looked like an old lady, stood up and said.

"Oh, it's a kind of egg. It's okay. You are busy. I will do it myself. I want a piece of lean meat. I will make some more rice porridge for you, Young Master Liu. See what he likes to drink. Your master will make it for him in the future." There is nothing to say. Miss Xiaohong, please find someone to pick some lotus leaves for me. I don’t want the old leaves, I want the ones that are pulled out, and the ones with curled edges. By the way, I can also pick them A few. Thank you." Wan Xiaoliu thought that this young master Liu must be an extremely picky person, and with the bragging of the chef in Liu's mansion, he should have two brushes, otherwise he wouldn't have said that in front of Xiaohong and the others, such a big The things cooked by the cook, coupled with the Liu family's economy, and the favored status of the Liu family's young master, would not dare to fool this willful and tricky young master. It can only show that this young master is a difficult master. .

Xiaohong ordered one of them to pick lotus leaves according to Wan Xiaoliu's instructions.Wan Xiaoliu started to prepare.

The chef named Fatty Liu seemed to wake up, and ran to Wan Xiaoliu and said, "Girl, as long as you can make the porridge that the young master likes, I, Fatty Liu, will call you Master from now on."

Wan Xiaoliu saw that this obese and chef-like chef was very sincere.

"Master Liu, don't say that, I just happen to only know this. I heard it from my father when I was very young, and I haven't cooked it for many years. Let's discuss it together, as long as you young master Liu likes it. "Wan Xiaoliu is very low-key and sincere.

"Miss, I really can't see that you can do this at such a young age. You are still so modest." Fatty Liu felt a little embarrassed.

"Master Liu, what kind of food does your young master usually like to eat?" Wan Xiaoliu asked while cutting the shredded pork.

"Our young master is so pitiful. Since he was a child, he ate very little and lightly. He was in poor health and often couldn't eat for several days. Only in the past few years, after the Taoist priest came to treat the young master, the young master started to eat. Be normal. He can’t eat greasy ones, and he can’t eat dishes that are too hard and overbearing. Usually, he cooks porridge and noodles for him in different ways. Over the years, the young master has also gotten tired of eating. Every year, the master and lady will invite him back to various places The famous chef from here came to the house to teach me how to cook, and then cooked different flavors for the young master to try. It’s just that I have never cooked this lotus leaf porridge. Today is also the first time I cook lotus leaf porridge, and I followed the method you said I tried to make it, so it's normal that the young master didn't eat it." The rich chef defended himself a little.

"Hey, you claim to be invincible, why don't you know how to do it for the first time, and the recipe?" The little red maid seemed to want to see Chef Liu get embarrassed.

"Master Liu, it's inevitable that you're doing it for the first time. It's more particular. It depends on the color of the rice, the water, and the heat." Wan Xiaoliu cut the shredded meat into rice grain-sized minced meat, and Fresh lilies soaked in hot water.

The person who picked the lotus leaves came back, Wan Xiaoliu cleaned the lotus leaves and asked Fatty Liu to cut them into fine pieces.Fatty Liu was naturally happy to help. The people who surrounded Fatty Liu just now surrounded the two of them, stretching their necks to look at each other. No one spoke, only the sound of Fatty Liu cutting lotus leaves.

"Which master is still young to help?" Wan Xiaoliu asked, holding the lotus leaf diameter and a few lotus leaves that he had picked.

"I'll come." Just now Xiaohong came in. The young man who Xiaohong spoke stood up.

"Okay, you find a tofu bag and beat these to make juice. There needs to be more juice, and if you don't have enough lotus leaves, go pick them." Wan Xiaoliu handed him the things in his hand.

"Okay!" The young man was happy to have something to do.

Wan Xiaoliu looked at the various kinds of rice brought out by the aunt who spoke before, and she chose delicate round-grained rice and soaked it in warm water.Three more small stoves were built, and the pot burners burned them with charcoal fire.Take out three small casserole pots, wash the soaked rice, add hot water, and put it on the stove to simmer.Keep an eye on the heat while simmering.Stir with a spoon from time to time.

"Master Liu, help me chop that fresh lily into fine pieces." Wan Xiaoliu said to Fatty Liu while sitting by the stove watching.

"Okay." Fatty Liu responded happily without a trace of displeasure.

The young man beating the juice brought over the emerald green juice and said, "Girl, do you think this is a photo?"

"Enen, very good, thank you. Thank you for your hard work." Wan Xiaoliu stood up and took the juice with both hands.

Open one of the casserole lids, Wan Xiaoliu stirs, and pours the lotus leaf juice into it.

Everyone held their breath and stared, and Master Liu also stopped and came over with a knife.

"Master Liu, look at this lotus leaf juice. It can only be added to the half-cooked porridge, and it can't be added at one time. You have to add some at a time. After the juice dissolves in, add more until it is evenly stirred. This You have to increase the amount, too much is not good, too little is not good." Wan Xiaoliu explained slowly.

"Enn, no wonder, I simmered with rice before." Fatty Liu nodded, that's why.

"Stir this one, and let it simmer for a while." Wan Xiaoliu took out the chopsticks for stirring, covered the lid, and asked the cooker to cover the fire with a layer of ashes, so that the fire would be low.

He opened another casserole, put the minced meat and lilies in it, and added a little salt and oil.

"It's a pity that there are no preserved eggs. It would be delicious if there were preserved eggs. Master Liu, have you ever endured this kind of porridge?" Wan Xiaoliu asked.

"I really don't have this. I never put meat in the porridge for the young master. I'm afraid he won't be able to eat it." Fatty Liu said.

"This is fine, it's not greasy, and it won't be unpalatable. Putting this lean meat in will only increase the deliciousness." Wan Xiaoliu explained.I took the minced lotus leaf, opened the last pot, put the minced powder in, added a little more oil, some boiling water and a little sugar.All three pots are boiling.Ask Fatty Liu and the young man to help each other handle one pot.Wan Xiaoliu watched that sometimes cold water was added, and sometimes heated water.
