Chapter 528 528. Spring cake and roast duck
Thirty percent of it comes from the recipe.
The remaining 10% comes from a source that Cheng Xi did not expect.
When a few people were discussing the opening of the store, Shen Xingqi proposed the solution of "setting up multiple different departments with clear division of labor" when asked about 'how to ensure that the secret recipe is not leaked', and advocated a piece-rate wage system, which was far ahead of this era. The management system shocked all the ladies of ancient times.
As expected, Shen Xingqi received compliments from all her girlfriends, which made the little girl blush again.
"No, it's not. I also read about it in books. It's just a matter of picking off people's wisdom."
This shouldn't embarrass your sister-in-law?
“That must be a wonderful book!”——by Qin Nan
“If you can apply what you have learned, my little Xingqi is indeed the best!”——by Song Yan

"It's so good, but my mother doesn't like me reading those loose books." - by Qu Shaoya.
Shen Xingqi: ".Should we write a deed?"
"Ah, yes, yes!"
Both are daughters of famous families, and in the past two years, they have also followed their elders to arrange general affairs. , so a few people were no strangers to deeds, and they quickly settled on the contents.
There is never a shortage of shops in the big family. Even on the most prosperous streets in the capital, there is no shortage of servants who can work. This family has two people who choose two from Zhuangzi. As for the lipstick used Molds and materials can be purchased externally
A series of details are listed one by one, in an orderly manner, and the general framework is just like this.
"Eh, what does it smell like? It smells so good!"
"Ah, it's already this hour, and I feel hungry when I smell it like this."
"It must have been ordered by Sister Cheng. Food is ready!”
So when Cheng Xi stepped into the main hall, he met a few pairs of longing and beautiful eyes. What attracted them was not him but the fragrant dinner plate behind him.
Cheng Xi:.
Her status is really full of twists and turns.
“It’s time to eat.”
These three words seemed to have lifted some great seal. The little girls who were still sitting dignifiedly put aside their identities in an instant. The daughter of a well-known family is reserved and very restless when it comes to touching her belly and washing her hands. Qu Shaoya even took the maid's job and went to prepare the dishes herself.
Shen Xingqi was stunned by her friends.
“Are you so hungry?”
"Of course, we have been busy all day!"
"I have never been so tired before."
Isn't it? In the past, the biggest amount of exercise in the house was walking from the backyard to the front yard. , or just go around the pond, where can I be as busy as I am today.
Shen Xingqi didn't quite believe this. It was said that a famous family had many rules and they had to practice all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Why was it different from what she thought?
“Oh, that’s different. My grandma has taught me the rules since I was a child. I’ve naturally gotten used to them after such a long time. As for the things we need to learn, we’ve already graduated at our age, and we just practice our skills on a daily basis.”
"That's how it is."
It's subtle, only skilled.
But this is the foundation of a wealthy family.
Shen Xingqi’s eyes flashed with some clarity.
The dishes of this meal are actually very simple. Although roast duck and shredded pork with Beijing sauce are added, the rest are still mainly green wild vegetables, including stir-fried wild vegetables and cold wild vegetables. In addition, there are many A savory dish spread into a round shape.
"Sorry for not serving the farm side dishes well."
"Sister Cheng is so humble again. You are unrivaled in the world when it comes to food!"
"Yes, we have had Sister Cheng present to us since then. recipes, everyone I’ve gained a lot of weight.”
A few people kept boasting, but their eyes were fixed on the dishes on the table. They looked at the reflective flaky roast duck and then looked at the same sauce-flavored color. Cheng Xi couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the shredded meat.
They are all still children who have not grown up.
"Then let's have dinner and eat more."
"Okay~"
The most eye-catching and fragrant thing is undoubtedly the roast duck. Everyone moved towards the plate and cut it into equal-sized pieces. When the duck slices are removed, each piece of duck meat comes with a layer of sauce-colored duck skin, which is mouth-watering.
The roast duck is wrapped in a palm-sized and thin pancake, with a chopstick of tender white onion shreds added, and finally a dip of sweet noodle sauce according to taste and put in the mouth. The rich taste explodes and makes your mouth water.
“Woo, wow~”
It’s so delicious~
The roast duck is red in color, tender in texture, mellow in taste, fat but not greasy, and goes just right with the greasy shredded green onions.
Qu Shaoya's eyes lit up several times, "It turns out that ducks can be eaten like this!"
Opened a new world Ing~~~
"Yes, yes Yeah, the wrapped pie crust just removes the salty taste of the sauce, the taste is so unique~"
With such a great taste, how can one be enough?
So without being greeted by Cheng Xi, several people picked up the second cookie and rolled it up. Their proficiency gradually increased, their experience points instantly exploded, and even Shen Xingqi had a mouth full of food.
"Are you all so hungry?"
The rest of the people: "."
There are no more free mouths to talk.
Cheng Xi: OK.
It seems that we are really tired today, my friends.
“Also try this shredded pork with Beijing sauce. It’s still rolled and eaten, just replace the duck meat with shredded pork.”
The chopsticks of several people moved towards it in unison. When I started eating the shredded pork with Panjing sauce, not long after, they all exclaimed "Wow wow wow".
Cheng Xi knew it was right as soon as he heard it.
This dish still received a lot of applause.
“It turns out that shredded pork can be made so delicious~”Σ(⊙▽⊙“a
So Sister Cheng is the God of Cooking who descended to earth, right?
The little girls narrowed their eyes in enjoyment again, and ate a few more biscuits, which filled their stomachs that had been empty due to excessive consumption.
The eating speed of several people also resumed. Normal.
Finally not so hungry anymoreヾ(▽)ノ
“Hey, what is this green round thing? What kind of vegetables are used?”
After hearing this, Shen Xingqi looked at Song Yan Looking at the dish he was pointing at, he realized that it was a plate of salty food that was browned on both sides.
Alas~ The poor wealthy daughter does not know about the salty pancakes that farmers often eat. I don’t know how much delicious food I have missed in this life!
“It’s a salty food. It’s made by mixing flour and wild vegetables. Just add some salt and fry it. This is a food commonly eaten by every household.”
In fact, what farmers often eat is not the kind in front of them. Most people can only afford multi-grain pancakes, rather than expensive refined flour like today.
But this was enough to surprise several young ladies.
Out of curiosity and trust in Cheng Xi’s craftsmanship, everyone stretched their chopsticks towards the round cakes on the plate, intending to try the food from the lower class.
Cheng Xi put a little thought into today's salty food. It was a small round cake specially made to taste beautiful. It was only as big as a fried egg and could not be held in one hand. Nibbling will not put too much burden on the chopsticks.
Sliced wild vegetables are mixed with fine noodles, beaten into eggs and mixed well to make the taste richer. Both sides are fried until golden brown. When you take a bite, the outside is crunchy and the inside is very delicate.
The two different tastes blend together to give people an alternative experience.
Click click click.
“It’s so fragrant and chewy!” “It’s so crispy!”
“Wild vegetables have such a unique taste~”
In the past, the ladies who were big on fish and meat had naturally never eaten wild vegetables. Cheng Xi estimated that even the children in their family might not be able to eat them. It was even more impossible to see salty food made from wild vegetables like this. Now one bite Completely fallen.
“Ah~it turns out that the lives of ordinary people are not that hard after all!”
“Pfft, cough, cough—”
“Hey? Xingqi, why are you swollen? ”
“No, it’s okay.”
"Oh~ Kacha Kacha"
Cheng Xi prepared a lot of lunch, but the stomachs of the few girls seemed to be able to hold more food than she thought. In a short time, the food on the table was cleared away, filling their stomachs. Rolling, belly stretched.
"Drink some hawthorn juice, then get up and walk."
This suggestion was approved by everyone, so there was a beautiful scenery outside Shenjiazhuang.
At that time, the fields were green and full of vitality, the potato seedlings were growing vigorously, and the corns were quite tall. Wang An was leading a few boys to weed the fields conscientiously.
The people who rented the land in Zhuangzi not far away were also very busy. Occasionally, children in patched clothes would play, and at the foot of the mountain, a few girls aged seven or eight carried bamboo baskets to dig wild vegetables.
Cheng Xi asked the maid who helped in the kitchen to dig out some more wild vegetables and brought some back to each house.
As for whether to eat it or not. Having experienced the lunch meal, I guess these wild vegetables will be turned into flowers.
“What are they looking at?”
“Maybe they want to know how potato seedlings grow.”
It is no longer a secret that potatoes are grown on Zhuangzi. Many people in the suburbs of Beijing have also learned the news. However, potato cultivation is limited. Most of the potatoes in the capital are divided up between aristocratic families and the Ministry of Agriculture and Agriculture. It would be very difficult to promote it throughout the capital. Waiting for next year.
However, this still cannot resist the enthusiasm of people in the suburbs of Beijing for potato seedlings. This scene is played out almost every day in Zhuangzi, for fear that they will not plant it after getting the seeds next year.
Wang An was a good-tempered man and allowed them to wander around, attracting more onlookers and gradually forming a scene on Zhuangzi.
“There are several acres on my farm, and my father specifically asked the housekeeper to take good care of it.”
“My mother often mentioned it when taking care of affairs on weekdays, so it seems that each house is like It’s about working hard to compete in terms of output.”
Several little girls walking around looked at each other and smiled.
#The world of adults is indeed different from theirs#
#It’s a good day without such worries#
In the evening, several luxury carriages drove slowly Back in the capital, when leaving Zhuangzi, he still pestered Cheng Xi for recipes for roast duck and salty wild vegetables.
Cheng Xi:.
Roast duck is okay, but it’s somewhat technical. There’s absolutely no craftsmanship in eating wild vegetables and salty food. Do you still need to waste words and ink?
In desperation, she could only take out a few pieces of cut rice paper and write a few more.
***
That night, the food at the Shen family table was almost exactly the same as that at noon. The only difference was probably the quantity.
The roast duck was sliced into five whole pieces, and the salty food made from wild vegetables was almost the size of a plate. It was completely without the sophistication at noon.
In view of the fact that the kitchen utensils in the second courtyard are all available, the plump duck was roasted until it was charred on the outside and tender on the inside. The heat was controlled just right. There were three layers of honey on the outside. The taste when you take a bite is simply amazing. .
Everyone in the family ate with their mouths full of oil. Even the leftover duck rack was made into soup by Cheng Xi. It was very comfortable to drink it with a handful of pepper and salt.
“Oh - this is how people live.”
Dad Cheng was rarely absent. He filled almost half of the staple food by himself, and disappeared again after eating.
Cheng Xi:.
Come to Qinqin's daughter's house to eat and drink together, exchange a few words and then leave like that?
"Am I my biological child?"
The tone was quite dissatisfied.
Shen Xingluo glanced at her while he was drinking soup, "My father-in-law has been very busy recently."
"There are no bodyguards to protect me. What on earth is the old man busy with?"
"You don't know?"
"?"
What should I know?
Shen Xingluo looked at her and was speechless for a while, "Just look at the ranking of the virtual training room and you will know."
Both father and daughter have big hearts.
"Isn't something earth-shattering happening again?"
Cheng Xi hasn't paid attention to the news of the apocalyptic plane for a long time. Xiao Wan is watching over there, and there is no need for the management of 666, the all-powerful butler. Worry about her.
However, when she opened the training room rankings at the Interstellar Supermarket, she was still shocked by several sets of data.
“I’ll go!”
Is her father so fierce?
The eighth person in the virtual training room is none other than Cheng Qian!
Since its opening to the outside world, this building has attracted countless survivors. No matter they are supernatural beings or ordinary people, men or women, they cannot refuse its charm. Although there are endless zombies and mutated animals and plants here, The trauma suffered can also be felt, but there are countless lives.
After three years in the apocalypse, the biggest thing for the survivors is to stay alive. Since death is not possible in the training room, then they should train to death. This is the tacit rule of everyone.
——You only need to pay a certain amount of interstellar coins to improve your strength. Who would dislike this kind of good thing?
So during the days when you don’t have to leave the base to kill zombies, the virtual training room has almost become everyone’s only choice. Therefore, the various lists in the training room have attracted the attention of countless people.
"The old man's gold power will soon break through the fourth level, and it is currently in the middle of the third level."
Seeing that Cheng Xi was still in a daze looking at the rankings, Shen Xingluo kindly explained to her.
“My father-in-law already had profound internal strength, and now he has super powers. He is much higher than others in terms of experience and strength. It is not surprising that he is ranked eighth.”
“.”
Cheng Xi is already stunned, okay.
You must know that there are 1.2 million people in the entire central China base. In the past three years of the apocalypse, people with super powers have generally been above level 4. The team led by Captain Xu has an average level of 6 per capita. Who can believe that so many people were defeated by a mid-level 3 Cheng Dagan? ?
Oh no, Team Xu and several other direct teammates were ranked first to seventh.
However, there are no eggs.
It still cannot change the fact that most people were ruthlessly crushed by Cheng Dagan.
“Daddy is mighty!”
Cheng Xi would like to express his highest respect.
"Usually he likes to fight with people the most. There are very few people in the Hongwei Escort Agency who can fight with him. Now it's better and he has found his life goal again."
In every fight, he plays his current position. I met you, my biological father is amazing!
"No, I have to make some delicious food to supplement the old man's health during these days."
"."
Shen Xingluo was silent for a moment, wanting to say something, and finally let her go.
