Lu Qiyan's index finger moved vigorously, and he ate like a wind and a lingering cloud, as if he didn't pay attention to the appearance of his food.
Such a gluttonous appearance made Wu Jin, who was accompanying Xia Mingyue in the main room, bared his teeth.
The portion of the conspicuous bun seems to be a bit larger.
Thankfully, my master can make money and know how to cook. Otherwise, I would really have to worry about whether the military salary from this conspicuous bag is enough to eat, and whether the family will be poor...
Lu Qiyan did not Unaware of Wu Jin's disdainful gaze, he just immersed himself in the deliciousness of the shaved noodles and ate all the braised pork and cold vegetables. Not even the soup in the bowl was left.
After enjoying all the delicious food with satisfaction, Lu Qiyan took the initiative to clear away the dishes, took them to the kitchen, cleaned them, tidied them up again, and then entered the house after washing them completely.
Xia Mingyue had already laid down and was reading the storybook as usual.
With the precedent of sleeping in the same bed last night, Lu Qiyan took off his shoes and took off his coat without looking for any reason today.
Xia Mingyue paused upon seeing this, "I'll sleep inside tonight."
She thought about it for a long time today and felt that she might have bad sleeping habits.
In order to prevent falling off the bed while sleeping, she subconsciously squeezed in, so she got into Lu Qiyan's bed. This time she slept directly in it, which could probably avoid this embarrassment.
That’s right!
With Xia Mingyue's calculations in mind, she quickly dragged her quilt inside. Lu Qiyan said "OK" and lay down directly on the outside.
The candle did not go out as usual.
Xia Mingyue turned her back to Lu Qiyan and closed her eyes after yawning several times.
Lu Qiyan didn't feel sleepy much, and he was thinking about Xia Mingyue tucking him in, so he didn't fall asleep for a long time.
It’s just that Xia Mingyue slept very peacefully today, without exposing her arms or legs at all, leaving Lu Qiyan with no use for her.
It also made Lu Qiyan a little regretful.
Closing his eyes helplessly, Lu Qiyan quickly fell asleep, but he also woke up quickly.
The wind was blowing outside, and the wind was so strong that it caused the branches in the courtyard to rustle, and even the closed window frames made a slight "bang" sound.
Accompanying these sounds are Xia Mingyue's rustling movements.
It's not that I'm pushing off the quilt, but I'm constantly pulling the quilt on myself.
It was Lu Qiyan’s quilt that was pulled.
Lu Qiyan couldn't help but laugh. Seeing Xia Mingyue in a daze, her brows furrowed, and she kept pulling, he had no choice but to offer up his quilt.
So, when Xia Mingyue woke up the next morning, she found herself lying on Lu Qiyan's bed again, and her arm was resting on Lu Qiyan's chest.
Xia Mingyue, "..."
She is so lustful!
But this is her legitimate right.
What's more, the quilt is very warm and comfortable to sleep on, and Lu Qiyan's chest...
It also feels great!
Seeing that Lu Qiyan had no intention of getting up early, Xia Mingyue saw that it was still early outside and seemed to be a bit cold, so she simply shrank her neck and planned to sleep for a while.
The hand placed on Lu Qiyan's chest was not taken back at all. Xia Mingyue closed her eyes again and quickly fell asleep again.
But Lu Qiyan opened his eyes at this time and looked at Xia Mingyue, who was sleeping peacefully next to him. His eyes were closed tightly, his eyelashes were trembling slightly, and he looked huddled in the quilt. Very cute.
Lu Qiyan's face was filled with smiles, and he couldn't hold back his impulse. He turned his face slightly and gave Xia Mingyue a gentle peck on his forehead.
Xia Mingyue frowned slightly in her sleep.
Surprised, Lu Qiyan immediately became more honest and lay down obediently.
The rooster crows three times, and the central kitchen becomes busy and the noise becomes louder. Xia Mingyue and Lu Qiyan both wake up, get dressed, get out of bed, and start washing.
Seeing Xia Mingyue touching her forehead from time to time, Jiang Zhuguo was surprised and a little worried, "Is Sister Xia feeling a little uncomfortable?"
"That's not true, it was just yesterday. I had a dream at night, I dreamed of going fishing, and while I was fishing, a fish jumped out of the net, and its tail swung on my forehead..."
Xia Mingyue said, "It feels cool and quite real. It always makes me feel a little dazed."
Lu Qiyan, who was helping Xia Mingyue fetch water, "..."
He is fish?
Okay, it’s delicious and very nutritious.
Because she dreamed of being thrown off by a fish's tail, Xia Mingyue decided that there must be fish in the dishes for lunch today.
Lou Shanzi, Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu discussed for a while and decided to make the squirrel fish that Xia Mingyue taught them before.
Kill and wash the fresh salmon. Make a knife on the left and right sides of the back of the fish's gills. Cut off the head. Use the knife to slice open all the meat on both sides of the fish horizontally against the fish bones. Keep doing this, and then flatten the fish body to create a diamond-shaped uninterrupted piece of meat, ensuring that the meat is not cut.
Add salt, egg white, starch, etc. to the fish and mix evenly. Put it into the oil pan and fry it twice. The first time is to set the shape, and the second time is fried until it is cooked. The whole fish will be evenly golden. According to the color, you can put it on the plate, lay out the fish head and fish meat, and create a suitable shape.
Stir-fry rock sugar until jujube red, add vinegar, sugar, water, sweet potato starch powder, minced garlic, etc. and stir-fry, stir evenly and cook until it becomes reddish brown, thick and rich sweet and sour sauce, pour it until fried On the fish meat, a dish of squirrel fish can be served on the table.
The shape of squirrel fish is like a squirrel, and the layers of fish meat are like blooming chrysanthemums. Therefore, it is called chrysanthemum fish in some places. It has bright color, tender and fragrant taste, and a sweet and sour taste. It can be said that it is suitable for all ages.
Lou Shanzi, Zhao Dahu, and Zhao Erhu each made three dishes of squirrel fish. Without telling everyone, they sent them to the table for everyone to taste. They also asked Xia Mingyue to give careful comments.
Xia Mingyue tasted each dish carefully and pointed out the problems in all the dishes.
“When cutting the fish, I was hesitant and inconsistent. The shape of the fish was not good, and the fried beauty was not enough. When the final sweet and sour sauce was fried, the heat was a bit too high, and it tasted sweet with a little bitterness. You need to pay attention to it this time.”
“The second time I fried it, the heat was a little too high, the color was darker, the fish was a little older, and the sweet and sour sauce was too thick. It's a bit thick, making the whole dish too heavy and not refreshing, and it's a bit tough in the mouth."
"This dish..." Xia Mingyue paused in front of the third dish, "There's nothing wrong with the knife skills, it's fried. The heat is excellent, the sweet and sour sauce is also fried very well, and the overall quality is very good, except that there is a gap in the fish plate, which slightly affects the appetite.”
"Although tableware management is not what the chef should do, as a chef, you need to do your best in all aspects. You also need to pay special attention to the tableware to avoid a small thing that will affect the satisfaction of the entire dish."
“Did you remember it?”
When Xia Mingyue asked, she looked at Lou Shanzi.
Lou Shanzi nodded hurriedly, "Master, don't worry, I've written it down."
"However, we didn't explain these three dishes in advance, how did master know that this dish was mine? "(End of Chapter)
