Chapter 359 Pork meat stewed vermicelli (1)

My mother went out to bring tea, but when she came back, she was empty-handed and there was no tea.

The young couple who were taking care of Mrs. Lu heard the commotion and turned around to see Qian Niang coming back empty-handed. They were a little surprised. Seeing that her mother looked wrong, they glanced at Mrs. Lu who was sleeping with her eyes closed on the bed. The two looked at each other.

He got up and walked out of the house. Before leaving, he specially tucked in the quilt for Mrs. Lu.

Both generations were brought up under the care of Mrs. Lu, and they have always been very respectful and filial to their grandmother.

After leaving the house, Lu Ruchuan, Qian Niang's son, asked his mother: "What's wrong with mother? Didn't you say you were going to bring tea?" It wasn't that the tea was important, but he was really worried when he saw Qian Niang's devastated look.

What happened.

Qian Niang looked at her son, her eyes were startled, and when she was about to speak, her daughter-in-law Zhou said "ah", pointed at Qian Niang's hand, and exclaimed: "What's wrong with mother's hand? Is it burned? Hurry up."

Wait and see with me!"

Hearing what Zhou said, Lu Ruchuan immediately blamed himself. He looked down at his mother's red fingers and said, "Yes, no," while reaching out to take Qian Niang's hand to see the injury.

But before her hand could touch Qian Niang, Qian Niang's fingers trembled and she retracted: "My hand is fine."

"Why does Mother Wuxin look like this?" Lu Ruchuan clearly didn't believe it and continued to reach out to hold Qian Niang's hand, "Mother, please let me see!"

"It's not about the hands." Qian Niang glanced at her red fingers and smiled bitterly. She raised her head and looked at her son and daughter-in-law. Although she was smiling, her appearance was clearly uglier than crying. She looked at the two of them.

, opened his mouth, his voice trembling: "Dali Temple... people from Dali Temple have found Tong Wu."

As soon as the name "Tong Wu" came out, the faces of the young couple who were worried about Qian Niang's injury suddenly changed, and they subconsciously blurted out: "How could..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice from behind: "Have they found Tong Wu?" Compared with the panic of his children, grandchildren and daughter-in-law, this voice seemed particularly calm, and there was even a little emotion in the calmness.

"This day has finally come!"

Qian Niang looked up at the woman standing by the door and murmured "Mother."

When the young couple heard this, they turned their heads and looked over, only to see Mrs. Lu, who had been sleeping on the bed just now, had gotten up at some point and was standing by the door in her middle coat.

I don't know whether it was the cold weather or Mrs. Lu's health. At this time, Mrs. Lu, who was standing by the door of the chair in medium clothes, looked extremely pale.

"You can't hide it," Mrs. Lu shook her head and murmured with a sad expression, "Now that you've done it, you can't hide it."

…

…

Lin Fei watched Qian Niang walk away in despair. Compared with the insinuations and insinuations when they met several times before, this time he did not speak.

After Qian Niang left, he turned around and returned to the courtyard: His mother's guest was obviously not a person who was good at acting. It would have been best to live a plain life. It's a pity... there are a few more people involved in this kind of thing.

Can you escape?

Rubbing the official silver worth four years in his hand, Lin Fei lowered his eyes and remained silent.

…

Although I am in a hurry to go to Xianyang, I still have time to have lunch.

"You can't go on the road until you are full...ah!" Liu Yuan said subconsciously, but when he realized that this was not a good omen, he quickly gave himself a slap in the face.

Bai Zhu glanced at him, shook his head and said: "You need to eat lunch quickly. Otherwise, if you arrive at Xianyang City in the middle of the night, the door of this city is not closed like Lin Shaoqing's. It opens with a knock. The door of this city is closed.

Once you eat, you have to stay outside the city all night to enjoy the cold wind, and wait until dawn before you can enter the city again."

Liu Yuan said "hmm", touched his stomach, and turned to Bai Zhudao: "Don't worry, I won't save it! After running all morning, the three plum blossom cakes in his stomach were already gone. I won't be able to eat this for lunch."

Slow down!" As he spoke, he had already entered the gate of Dali Temple.

At this time, the lunch hour has passed halfway, and since those in the yamen have the most active habit of eating, by this time, most people have already had lunch.

Their feet did not stop, and their eyes did not stop. While nodding and saying hello to the colleagues who were coming towards them, they glanced at the faces of the colleagues who had eaten lunch: looking at the satisfied expressions on their faces, this afternoon

The food is good!

"It's almost the Chinese New Year, so I think the public kitchen will pay more attention than usual!" Liu Yuan swallowed, smelled the aroma of meat in the air, muttered "I smell the aroma", and walked quickly into the public kitchen.

.

As they thought, most of the people in the yamen had already had lunch, and the busboys had already started to clean up the dining table. The glutinous rice balls and Ah Bing in the box were cooking the boneless chicken tenders and other snacks.

The utensils were brought out, and preparations had obviously begun for the snacks that would be sold after lunch.

When the two saw this, they immediately called out to Wen Mingtang, who was still sitting behind the counter and looking towards them with a smile: "Master Wen!"

Wen Mingtang said "Hey", put aside the notebook in his hand, got off the homemade high stool, walked to the tray where empty bowls and plates were already placed in front of the table, and started serving food for the two of them.

After appraising the food intake of the two of them, Liu Yuan had a bigger appetite than Bai Zhu. Wen Mingtang put the rice and vegetables into a tray and pushed it over.

It is still the daily meat and vegetable combination with the same soup, and there is no need to add two more dishes before the Chinese New Year as I thought before. Not only did they not add any vegetables, but looking at the big meat, Master Wen, who is quite serious in cooking on weekdays

Today's lunch seems to be a fool's errand.

"Master Wen, this meat dish looks like it was stewed randomly." Since he was an acquaintance, Liu Yuan was rude, pointed at the meat dish, and said, "Although it smells quite fragrant, the pork, vermicelli, cabbage, and tofu are...

, it looks just like the dishes my mother would make when she’s lazy!”

His mother sometimes played Pai Gow with others and had no time to cook, so she stewed everything in one pot, added some salt, and brought it over. Whether it tasted good or not, and whether it was edible or not, all depended on God's will.

Master Wen's meat dish today looks very similar to the dishes his mother cooks.

Meeting Liu Yuan's gaze as if he had seen through her, Wen Mingtang smiled and shook his head, saying: "Although this was indeed a random stew at first, what I did today is really not that good!"

Tang Yuan and A Bing, who were putting the pot on the stove, also answered: "Master Wen specially made these vermicelli for the purpose of making this pork stewed vermicelli! Whether it tastes good or not, Liu Sicheng will know after eating it."

Already."

No more elaborate than usual meat dishes, today's dish called pork vermicelli stewed with vermicelli does seem to be a home-cooked dish.

But the deliciousness of home-cooked food is not much better than that of exquisite dishes.

The pork stewed with vermicelli just came out of the pot is still steaming. This stewed in one pot is warm and perfect for winter.

Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu, who said they "disgusted" Wen Mingtang's fooling around, sat down, but still sincerely raised their chopsticks to eat this "fooling dish".

Originally, he wanted to eat the pork first as usual, but looking at the vermicelli dripping with soup and sliding down the chopsticks, Liu Yuan accidentally took his first bite and took the first bite of it.

The "fooling" side dish - vermicelli.
