Mao Xi took the pig intestines and fish dumplings back to Liuxiang Snacks to process the ingredients. Worried about the strong smell of the intestines, she closed the kitchen to clean them.

At this time, a customer came into the shop and ordered two portions of snail noodles and braised sausage.

The braised large intestines in the shop were just sold out, so they were waiting for Mao Xi to wash them and put them into the pot.

Xiao Qing stepped forward to help clean the ingredients and informed Mao Xi that the braised sausages in the store were sold out and there were customers ordering them.

Mao Xi came out of the kitchen and saw that the guest was an old acquaintance, Brother Dali, with his daughter, so he asked: "Brother Dali, I just bought the braised sausage. It will take an hour. How about I fry a large intestine for you now?" ?”

Brother Dali doesn't eat pig offal, but he has a special liking for braised intestines. He is afraid that the fried large intestine will taste fishy and hard to swallow, so he worries: "Will the stir-fried large intestines taste better? It's more fragrant than braised." ?"

"Guaranteed to satisfy you!"

Mao Xi took a freshly washed large intestine and started cutting it on the cutting board.

There were still a lot of intestines and fish soaked in the kitchen, so Brother Ying ran to the kitchen and started working with Xiaoqing.

Xiaoqing taught Brother Ying to string the washed large intestines into a set of intestines. Brother Ying was clever and could learn it in one go.

Miao Xi first boiled a pot of water, put in the large intestine and cooked it, then cut it into one-inch pieces, and blanched it in the pot again to remove the smell.

Add chopped green onion and ginger to the oil pan and sauté until fragrant, pour in vinegar and cooking wine, stir evenly, then pour in the large intestine and start stir-frying. The fire instantly burns into the pot, turn it over a few times and put it in a bowl for later use.

The fire in the pot was so high that it startled Brother Dali, who was sitting in the outer hall. He thought the kitchen was on fire, so he quickly got up to investigate.

Mao Xi took another pot and added the sugar to the oil, stir-fried the sugar paste, stirred quickly until it turned red, poured the large intestine into the pot and continued to stir-fry.

The kitchen began to be filled with the smell of burnt sugar paste and the unique taste of large intestine.

Brother Dali swallowed, he was already looking forward to this dish.

After the sugar paste in the pot has fully coated the large intestine, pour into a small bowl of chicken soup, a small amount of pepper oil and salt, stir with a spoon to taste, so that the soup can be fully absorbed by the large intestine.

Add a small amount of pepper before serving, lift the pot and keep turning it in circles. After the juice is collected, place the large intestine upright on the plate, and finally sprinkle with a little chopped green onion.

The taste is a combination of sour, sweet, spicy, and numb. Brother Dali took a bite. It was crispy and fragrant without being smelly, and his appetite was instantly whetted.

I just finished my rice noodles and asked for a bowl of rice to go with the "Nine-turn Large Intestine". Several diners at the next table were attracted by the bright red color and delicious taste of this dish, and followed suit.

Xiao Qing gave two large intestines to Mao Xi, who was serving the spoon. Zhang Xiucai added a nine-turn large intestine on the food plate. The price was 10 cents per serving, which was really not expensive.

Brother Dali was still unsatisfied after finishing the meal, so he packed up another portion and said he would take it home to give his wife a taste.

The next day, Lou Laner took the shop leaflets and went to Kaitang County to distribute them. She came to the East Stage as usual. It was particularly lively on and off the stage, with singing actors and acrobats performing hard.

A girl stood on stilts and fiddled with a flower drum in her hand. A short boy beside her did somersaults on the spot, harmonizing with the girl and singing folk songs.

Among the onlookers, Miss Zhou and her uncle were holding hands, very affectionate. The lady threw some reward money to the two people, and the little boy who sang happily did three somersaults in a row.

"In February, I came to visit my sister. The dragon raised his head and took my little sister to visit the flower house... In March, I came to visit my sister. On March 3rd, I took my little sister to Jiangnan, ah Yi Er ah And Yi..."

This tune sounded like a northern folk song, which aroused Lou Lan'er's homesickness. She gathered around and was about to throw a few coins to reward him, but she recognized "Qi Rui" in the crowd at a glance.

"Mr. Qi!" She called out to Qi Rui, but he didn't answer. Instead, he was holding a lady-like person's arm and was looking affectionately at her.

Lou Lan'er, who had misunderstood, felt tight in her heart, feeling that her previous affection had been wrongly paid. She squeezed out of the crowd, left the East Stage in a hurry, ran to the West Stage and the entrance of Linglong Mountain, handed out the flyers hastily, and returned to Lihua Town. .

When she arrived at the shop, she didn't say a word. She just ran to the kitchen and asked Xiaoqing to make grilled naan and barbecue for her, while she kept washing the pig intestines and irritated the food.

When Mao Xi saw Lou Lan'er come back, her face looked wrong. Just when she was about to step forward to ask, Qi Rui happened to come to the store.

When Lou Laner saw Qi Rui coming to the shop, she couldn't help but hold the large intestine in her hand, as if she wanted to hit Qi Rui, and drove him to the door of the shop.

Everyone who didn't know why, seeing that Lou Lan'er, who was rarely angry on weekdays, actually got angry, stood aside and did not dare to speak.

Qi Rui was rushed to the door. He was a little confused. He argued with Lou Lan'er: "Miss Lan'er, Xiaosheng did something wrong. Why did you do this to me?"

"Don't you know what you did? Just now you were holding hands with a girl by the stage. What are you doing here now? Walk around and don't hang around in front of me. It's an eyesore."

Qi Rui was scolded by Lou Lan'er and hurriedly defended: "Xiaosheng has been painting in the art academy today and has never gone out to watch a play. Miss Lan'er, please don't unjustly accuse a good person!"

Lou Lan'er suppressed her blush. She usually heard that some literati were the most romantic, but today she finally saw it: "No? I saw it for real!"

Seeing Lou Laner still holding a large intestine at the door of the store, it seemed that he was about to be beaten in the next second. Mao Xi quickly took her back to the kitchen with Xiaoqing.

Seeing that Lou Lan'er was angry for no reason, she didn't dare to invite Qi Rui into the house, so she asked, "Mr. Qi, what brings you to your store today?"

Qi Rui came over with a painting and handed it to Shu Xi: "The painting of the opening butter cake is done. Miss Ah Shu, please put it away. What happened to Lou Lan'er today? I just said that I saw a woman and I on the stage. Together, I didn’t go out this morning, I was painting!”

"Sister Lan'er has a quick temper. There may be some misunderstanding. You go back first. Don't worry!"

After comforting Qi Rui, Mao Xi put the paintings away and went to the kitchen to find Lou Lan'er.

At this moment, she was poking at the fish bubbles with scissors, venting her anger. Mao Xi stood next to her and washed with her. After all the ingredients were washed, she said, "Sister Lan'er, is your anger gone? What happened?"

Lou Lan'er told Shu Xi everything she saw on the stage today, and said aggrievedly: "He even went to Kaitang County to watch the opera with other girls. Why did he take me to see the little Huang Ying perform in the first place? This philandering carrot blames me for being blind, ugh..."

"So you guys went to see Little Huangying perform together? No wonder I always felt like someone was behind me that day! Don't cry, what did Mr. Qi give me just now?"

Mao Xi unfolded the scroll and found a painted butter cake inside.

"I took this cake to draw for him in the morning, and he delivered it to me as soon as he finished it today. How could he be separated and go to a place so far away in Kaitang County? Did you see the wrong person?"

"But I clearly saw someone who looked exactly like him, and there was a young lady beside him."

When Shu Xi went there, he told Lou Lan'er that his boss had met Mr. Zhou's son-in-law and that he looked very similar to Mr. Qi.
