The next morning, there were fragrant fried buns, soft and glutinous rice porridge, and freshly mixed shredded radish.
At noon, it was steamed braised noodles with soybean sprouts and meat slices that tasted extremely delicious.
In the evening, it was stick noodle porridge, fried pork with dried fragrant seeds, and scallion oil rolls...
The delicious food in the small canteen continued, and everyone was immersed in it and felt very satisfied.
Especially when the students discovered that the attitudes of Zhou Shanchang and Dave Zi had changed significantly, their hearts became more and more stable, and they no longer concealed their praise of Xia Mingyue's cooking skills, let alone their pursuit of delicious meals.
Naturally, he did not dare to slack off at all in his studies, but instead became more motivated.
In their view, the reason why Dave was able to become so open-minded and reasonable and no longer blindly suppressed their pursuit of appetite was because they found that even if the food was delicious, they Able to study hard.
Then, they must work harder.
First of all, the masters cannot be disappointed in them.
Secondly, they cannot let themselves down.
In short, the county school has been peaceful these days.
Looking around, it is like the crop seedlings in the spring fields, thriving and growing in the wind, which makes people feel really happy.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiqing stroked the beard on his chin again and again. When playing with the pots of orchids in the room, he couldn't help but hum a little tune.
"Chief Shan, I feel that this is not the time to be happy..." the bookboy who was helping Zhou Zhiqing clean up the flower pots reminded him.
“Why?” Zhou Zhiqing was stunned.
Dave Zi changed his mind. Now they can all enjoy delicious food in the small canteen. Even the students are working hard to improve their studies. Why shouldn't he be happy?
“Ms. Xia’s cooking is delicious, but she only stayed in the small canteen for half a month, no more than twenty days at most. During this time, everyone got used to Mrs. Xia’s cooking skills. The taste has been cultivated to be very tricky. After Chef Wei comes back..."
After Chef Wei comes back, he will eat the food with Chef Wei's limited cooking skills again.
At that time, everyone was frowning and in a bad mood, and the daily canteen was back to the time when it was just like chewing wax.
Not only that, but because I am used to eating the food cooked by Madam Xia, my reaction will be even greater when the time comes.
At that time, I am afraid that there will be complaints and instability everywhere.
I’m sweating profusely!
Zhou Zhiqing's smile disappeared in an instant, and his brows suddenly furrowed.
What should I do?
Ms. Xia’s family has a lot of business. She was able to agree to help out in the small dining hall for a period of time this time. She only reluctantly agreed because she didn’t have much time and could read and learn calligraphy. .
If you want Madam Xia to stay a little longer, she will definitely fail.
As for Chef Wei, he is not young and has been working in the small canteen for a long time. He has more seniority than the mountain leader. Moreover, when Jinqiu County was hit by war, Chef Wei tried his best to To preserve some items in the county school, it can be said that he has a deep affection for the county school and cannot be dismissed.
Things seem to have reached a point where they cannot be resolved.
Zhou Zhiqing had a sad face and paced back and forth in the room several times with his hands behind his back. Finally he looked at the book boy and said, "You are young, smart and can learn anything quickly. You are not as good as you are these days. "How about learning some cooking skills?" "Or, what do you think of me? Although I am a little older, I have eaten a lot of food. As the saying goes, you can't run away without eating pork or seeing a pig. Is it easier to learn if you have more experience? ”
Instead of expecting others, do it yourself.
Shu Tong, "????"
Master Shan must be...
Are you crazy?
——
The weather gets colder every day, and Xia Mingyue learns more and more words every day.
Xia Mingyue was able to exceed every assignment assigned by Zhou Shanchang and start previewing for the next course.
For accepting such a serious and diligent student, Zhou Shanchang was quite pleased and had a full sense of accomplishment. He gave Xia Mingyue two more books so that she could study independently. If she didn't know the words, she could come and ask at any time. .
In this way, the speed of literacy can be accelerated, which is quite suitable for Xia Mingyue.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Zhou Shan." Xia Mingyue expressed her gratitude as if she had found a treasure.
Here, under the management of Lu and Jiang Zhuguo, everything related to the breakfast stall is basically ready.
Just when Xia Mingyue was hesitating about how many nights she should open the breakfast stall after she was done with the county school canteen, she decided to let Lu and Jiang Zhuguo try it out first. During the test, Zhou Zhiqing came here early in the morning to look for Xia Mingyue.
It is said that Chef Wei will be back this afternoon. After Xia Mingyue finishes cooking lunch, she can go back and do her own business.
"Ms. Xia has been working really hard during this period." Zhou Zhiqing said.
"Chang Zhou is very polite."
"Don't worry, Madam Xia. I have already said hello to several ladies. As long as Madam Xia is free, you can come to the county to study and learn calligraphy."
Zhou Zhiqing picked it up from the book boy and had already prepared it. He handed the small baggage to Xia Mingyue, "Here are a few books, which I personally copied in my spare time. They are not written by famous writers and are not helpful for scientific research, but the sentences are easy to understand, and they are all It is a commonly used word and is very suitable for children to learn to read. I thought it was also suitable for Madam Xia, so I gave it to Madam Xia. "
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou Shan", Xia Mingyue took it with both hands and thanked her repeatedly.
The noon meal was the last meal that Xia Mingyue would cook in the small canteen for a while. Xia Mingyue thought about it and went to the street to buy half a lamb that had been slaughtered.
Shave the meat and remove the bones, soak the mutton and mutton bones in cold water to fully remove the blood from the mutton and mutton bones, and then blanch them in water with onion, ginger, and wine to remove the foam.
Wash with warm water, put the water into the pot, bring to a boil together with the green onions and ginger slices, then simmer over low heat.
The flames jumped, the water in the pot boiled and rolled, gradually turning white from the initial transparency, and the unique fragrance of the broth gradually floated out.
When the mutton is completely cut off, you can take it out and cut it into thin slices, leaving the mutton bones still slowly simmering in the pot to keep the soup as delicious and rich as possible.
Add water and salt to the flour to make a dough. After it has risen, divide it into small balls, roll them into the shape of beef tongue, brush both sides with thin oil, and let it rest for half an hour.
The awakened dough sheet is very tough. Pull both ends of the dough sheet, stretch it gently, pull the dough sheet to its longest length, and then tear it into strips as wide as a thumb's width.
Cook the noodles in the pot and take them out. Put a few slices of sliced mutton in the bowl, shredded tofu, shredded fungus, coriander, etc. that have been cooked in advance, and then pour a spoonful of hot and rich mutton bone soup, the fragrant mutton The braised noodles began to be distributed to the hands of each student.
The mutton braised noodles are steaming hot, the noodles are chewy, and the soup is rich and delicious. With a little chili oil or balsamic vinegar garnished, the deliciousness in the entire bowl immediately rises to another level. (End of this chapter)
