Soon, Tao and Yu Fang came back.

They each held a handful of wild vegetables in their hands.

Shu Xin took a quick look and found that the pile of wild vegetables in Tao's hand included purslane, shepherd's purse, and wood ear vegetable.

There was even a handful of wild onions.

Shuxin's eyes lit up. With the wild onions, the taste of her sauce became richer.

When Liu saw that Tao had also brought in some wild vegetables, she immediately made a loud "Puh" sound and was about to cause trouble again, but was stopped by Yu Fang.

"Mom, time is running out. We have to wash these wild vegetables quickly."

Yu Fang frowned and said to Liu.

She also has to knead the dough to make pancakes, so she is a bit pressed for time.

Liu threw away the things in her hand and started scolding Yu Fang.

"You are such a jinx, you even call your mother to do something."

"Have you grown wings? Do you think you can take advantage of me just by giving me some advice?!"

Although this was an insult to Yu Fang, it was obviously directed at Tao.

Tao was immediately annoyed.

"Mr. Liu, if you don't want to do this, get out of the way. Don't get in the way here. Don't think I can't hear you when you keep saying dirty things!"

Tao was never afraid of Liu and never gave in.

Liu was not angry even though Tao provoked her. The two of them started arguing with each other again.

Shuxin looked at the two of them like this, smiled and shook her head.

Yu Fang felt very embarrassed. She bit her lip and tears welled up in her eyes.

But in order to have enough to eat in the future, she had no choice but to work hard on her own.

She washed and cut vegetables skillfully and kneaded the dough.

Shuxin looked at her technique and sighed in her heart, this person is indeed a good worker.

Pity!

When Tao saw Yu Fang busying herself, she stopped arguing with Liu and started working quickly.

Yu Fang seemed to be making pancakes, which took quite a bit of effort.

But it’s much simpler for Shuxin.

They did it in pairs, so it was much faster.

Liu just stood by and watched, not helping Yu Fang.

Tao and Shuxin just washed the vegetables, poured all the noodles in, mixed them well, and steamed them.

I was suddenly surprised.

Such simple and strange looking food must not taste good.

Liu was so happy that she felt they were sure to win.

She was overjoyed and looked at Tao and Shu Xin with disdain.

However, when Yu Fang saw Shu Xin's actions, she suddenly became anxious.

She felt that the food Shuxin made was something she had never seen before and must be very innovative.

Maybe he would just happen to catch the eyes of the officers.

She didn't dare to be complacent and quickly thought of a solution.

But she was already kneading the dough, and it was too late to change to other food.

Especially when I saw the seasoning made by Shu Xin, the red chili was poured with hot oil, and the aroma instantly filled the air.

Even Yu Fang and Liu couldn't help but sniff several times. Although it felt spicy, the fragrance was indeed overbearing and increased their appetite.

She knew this thing. She had heard the Tao family's cook talk about it before. It should be red pepper from foreign countries.

Although she had never eaten it, she knew that it must be very special.

Yu Fang became even more anxious when she saw it.

She had a bad feeling in her heart.

So she changed her mind temporarily and stopped making ordinary steamed pancakes and started making fried pancakes instead.

But then the little salt and oil won't be enough.

She had no choice but to ask Liu to take some silver money to the post station to buy some lard and a bowl of rapeseed oil.

Liu was very angry and threatened that if Yu Fang didn't win, she would make him pay.

Yu Fang was also very scared, but now she was in a difficult situation and could only use her best skills.

However, Yu Fang felt more confident.

She also knows how to make puff pastry.

It is to knead lard and flour, make it into crispy dough and add it to the kneaded dough. The fried cake made in this way is crispy and falls apart when you eat it.

Soon, the food on both sides was ready.

Although Shuxin was quick, it still took some time to steam three large steamers of noodles at once.

But it's still much faster than Yu Fang.

Shuxin took a large bowl, filled it with steamed noodles, and poured the sauce she had prepared on it.

In this sauce, Shuxin secretly added modern vinegar and light soy sauce, as well as sugar and MSG for seasoning.

He even took out some chili peppers from the space, fried them into chili oil and poured it on the dish.

There are also chili peppers in this time and space, called red peppers.

However, it is a condiment imported from foreign countries and is not so popular yet. It is sold only in small quantities and is also very expensive.

Tao was also distressed, but Shuxin told her not to worry, as she had brought a lot.

Only then did Tao feel relieved.

By the time Du Changchun came over, Yu Fang had just finished frying the first pot of fried cakes.

I have to say, this fried pancake is really delicious.

For those who are hungry, a serving of fried pancakes in the morning, with its greasy and fragrant smell, can whet the appetite.

Several officers gave high praise to the fried cakes made by Yu Fang and his colleagues without even eating them.

Tao was a little anxious for a moment, but when she saw Shuxin's calm expression, she felt a lot more at ease.

It’s time for the food tasting.

Du Changchun tasted the oil cake first.

The pancake was golden, fried to the perfect temperature, and crispy.

The only drawback is that there is not enough salt and the taste is bland.

You'll get tired of eating more than a few.

And because there is not enough flour, the size of this fried dough pancake is too small compared to the fried dough pancakes sold outside.

For a big man like Du Changchun, a fried pancake is only half the size of his palm, and eating one is not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.

He ate two in a row and then stopped.

Let the two servants beside him taste the rest.

The two officers ate with gusto.

Yu Fang breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this.

Liu became even more proud, and her nose was raised to the sky when she looked at Tao.

Tao endured it again and again.

She trusted her daughter unconditionally. She felt that although Shuxin had never cooked, she would definitely win because of her broad experience.

Shu Xin quickly brought Du Changchun a bowl of steamed noodles.

White and green pasta topped with red sauce.

The colors complement each other and whet your appetite at first sight.

In the still somewhat hot weather of late summer and early autumn, eating a bowl of this will make you feel comfortable all over.

Du Changchun was attracted at once.

He mixed the sauce well as Shuxin had said, picked up a mouthful of steamed noodles with chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

The noodles are soft and don't have the hard texture of coarse noodles at all.

The highlight is the sauce, which is fresh, fragrant and spicy, making you want to eat more and more.

Du Changchun couldn't help but take two more bites and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he finished a big bowl in one breath, and still felt like he wanted more.

Tao happily handed him another bowl.

The two officers had just eaten three oil cakes each and were half full.

It’s not that they don’t want to continue eating, it’s just that Yu Fang is slow.

Frying the pancakes requires the right temperature and time, and she was busy alone and could hardly take care of it.

The two officers couldn't wait any longer, and seeing their boss eating so happily, they suddenly felt a little greedy.

Shuxin quickly brought a bowl to each of them.

Both of them were a little hesitant. If they also ate such a big bowl, it wouldn't be enough, right?

After all, that little bit of noodles was not enough for them to eat.

Shuxin saw through his concerns and smiled, telling them not to worry and just eat.

Not only that, you can also call other servants over and give each of them a bowl.

The two men were immediately delighted when they heard this, and went to look at Du Changchun again. When they saw Du Changchun nod, they ran off to call for help.

Soon, the kitchen was full of people.

Each of the officers had a bowl of steamed noodles in his hand, and nearly ten of them were eating enthusiastically.

The kitchen was too small and Liu was almost squeezed out of the yard.

Yu Fang was still frying pancakes. When she saw this, she immediately panicked.

She gave Wu Zhiyong a pitiful look, and Wu Zhiyong nodded at her.

Yu Fang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

When it came to the final selection, Liu insisted that Shuxin and the others were cheating, and must have secretly added wheat flour to make such a big pot of food.
