Mr. Minguo's kitchen

Master? ! "It was just dawn this day, and the fat aunt walked into the kitchen yawning and saw her young master entering the kitchen again, who was working in front of the stove. The young son was wearing a clean white suit shirt, buttoned up to the top, The sleeves were neatly rolled up to the wrists. It was early morning and the kitchen was dark, but in the faint morning light, the abnormally fair skin was particularly conspicuous.

Lin Weirui glanced at her and said hello, and the fat aunt immediately came to him to help, and was ordered to pull a bellows to light a fire.Fat aunt has blindly worshiped her own young master since she saw the ability of the young master last time, which makes her even more curious.While building a fire, watch the movement over there.

I saw a piece of aiqing-colored dough at the bottom of the basin. The young man kneaded the dough lightly, with focused eyes, and picked them into half-fist-sized dough balls, kneaded them into long strips, flattened them one by one, wrapped them up and put them aside The red bean paste filling, pinched to close the mouth, and then kneaded into a round head and round head.He moved very quickly, and in a short while, the steaming tray covered with zong leaves was filled with more than [-] bi-color dumplings that were almost the same size and shape.If someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder sees this, it must be very comfortable.

When the fire was lit, the fat aunt put the steamer on the steamer and pulled the bellows without any orders from the elder and younger.

"Don't change the heat, steam for a quarter of an hour." Fat aunt nodded like garlic, although she couldn't see what the young master was doing, she followed everything.

Lin Weirui asked, "How is Aunt Fat's arm strength?"

The fat aunt saw that she had the opportunity to show herself, and she immediately swears by her muscles, "Don't worry, young master, we have been doing farm work since we were young, so we must have strength!"

So, when the sky was completely bright, everyone in the courtyard on the east side of the Lin Mansion was awakened by a strange fragrance, even if they were covered with quilts, the pervasive fragrance completely covered the entire courtyard.After digesting last night's dinner, my stomach is completely empty, which makes it easier for this aroma to invade.

At the door of the kitchen, a little boy squatted there for some unknown time.The fat aunt saw it with sharp eyes, and ran out to see that he was not wearing shoes, and muttered, "Why did the young master run out without shoes on, what does this little boy do, and he doesn't even look at it", and immediately hugged him up.The eldest brother of the Lin family swept his bare feet and pursed his lips.But Aunt Fat and Xiao BuDian knew that the youngest/big brother was angry.

After all, the master and the servant have seen the eldest brother of the Lin family in the kitchen the most. Although the eldest and young master usually have no temper, he is quite majestic, and everyone is a little afraid of him.Generally speaking, only in the kitchen is the best time for this master to relax and talk.

Aunt Fat actually felt pity for this young master with a special background, it was all the adults' fault, but all the crimes were borne by the child.But before the young master was not around, they were also servants. They could only secretly give him something to eat when the young master was hungry, and there was nothing else they could do.That's why Xiaobudian didn't refuse her approach, and of course it might be because he didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of a strange big brother.The fat aunt was still busy, so she simply put him to sit by the stove.He was also enjoying himself, inhaling the aroma in the air, while secretly looking at the young man who was making salted egg yolk on the other side.

After another meeting, the commotion in the yard became louder, cleaning and boiling water, there were not many people in the east courtyard, but this morning, basically everyone had to pass the kitchen as if nothing had happened, and then do intoxication. He took a breath of the strange fragrance boiling in the air, because it was out of the pot, and it smelled stronger than before.At first, the big guys thought it was Fat Auntie's skill that had suddenly improved by leaps and bounds, so they hurriedly got up without even washing their face and came to the kitchen excitedly, but before they stepped into the kitchen, they saw their young master and turned a corner abruptly.

After all, they were all from the West Courtyard before, and this time it was the second lady who said that the young master had no one to attend and sent some people over.Therefore, most of the servants are not familiar with the main family here. The young master of the Lin family seems to have no temper, but he is an imposing and knowledgeable gentleman. The servants dare not be presumptuous in front of him.

When Ah Fu came in, the second pot of green dumplings had already been baked. He opened the steamer and brushed it with a layer of oil. It is dark green, but irregular and translucent blue like Hetian jade, like a work of art, I can't bear to look at it.

The young master next to the stove has been allowed to eat. The round-headed and round-brained green dumplings are small in size, two bites each, glutinous and soft, and do not stick to the teeth. The filling is added with a little mugwort leaf juice, which has been specially processed. The red bean paste is black and green, fat but not plump. One bite, it is fragrant, astringent, sweet, and the taste is distinct. You can eat ten in one go!Relying on being the servant next to the young master, Ah Fu also secretly grabbed one and stuffed it into his mouth.

Woo... Sajia's life is worth it.

The fat aunt looked at his worthless appearance, and tapped his head, telling him not to let the young master see him stealing. It would be more convincing if she could wipe off the red bean paste from her mouth.It is small in size, even if you take a small bite, it will be finished in a few bites.But at this time, Ah Fu didn't dare to steal it anymore.

Rubbing to the young master's side lightly, he asked flatteringly, "Master, what is this little green dumpling? I have never eaten this kind of dim sum before."

"Youth Tuan, I'll get some to pack up later, and you can share the rest." He had seen the two of them stealing food, so he paused for a while and looked at the little girl who was dressed fairly cleanly today. Potatoes, added: "Save some for the young master as an afternoon snack, don't let him eat too much at one time." Don't look at this thing as small, it's easy to accumulate food if you eat too much.The kid squatting on the stove over there probably heard it too, and his big eyes lit up instantly.

The last drawer is the green ball stuffed with meat floss and egg yolk, which is relatively small, mainly because there is less salted egg yolk, and the meat floss was fried by Aunt Fat just now.But obviously, the latter is more popular, especially after eating too much sweet and greasy red bean paste.

"Young Master, are we going to visit Fourth Master Lin today?" Ah Fu asked as he sat down after eating and drinking. Yesterday, for some reason, Young Master asked himself to go to Fourth Master Lin's home to hand over greeting cards .

"Ah."

Ah Fu said worriedly: "This Fourth Master Lin has a weird temper."

According to kinship, Fourth Master Lin is Father Lin's cousin, and he is one of the richer families in the Lin family except for Lin Weirui's family, who is engaged in comprador business. Therefore, Fourth Master Lin has a lot of influence in the family. .The most inhumane thing about Fourth Master Lin is not that he established his current family business by virtue of his connections with foreigners, but that he married a lady from a family in the south of the Yangtze River, and he loved his wife like his life, and there was no concubine in his family. Even in the outside world, he is clean and self-conscious, which is surprising at the time.

I brought the green dough and some other pastries that taste better when it is cold, and two three-inch bottles of glass wine bottles with corks and silver lids and jade pots in the shape of spring bottles.But seeing that the young master was very careful when he took it out, Ah Fu hurriedly protected it tightly, it must be a good thing!

Fourth Master Lin was very polite. When he heard that his nephew was coming, he greeted him.It happened that Lin Erye's eldest son, Lin Muying, was also at home, meeting guests together.

"Wei Rui came here when he came, what else do you bring?" Lin Siye's wife, Chen Zuiying, is a well-known beauty, as famous as Lin Weirui's mother. She is nearly forty years old, and her complexion is still undiminished, like a young girl in her teens. However, he has been plagued by old illnesses recently, and he has become more sick.

"It's all little things."

Ah Fu watched anxiously from the side, fearing that others would really think that this was a dish that could not be put on the table, so he had the courage to interject in a low voice: "Fourth madam, you don't know, the young master has made a big fuss in order to do this." Morning, you have been busy all morning, you have to taste the craftsmanship of the young master! Not a slave to boast, this!" Ah Fu gave a thumbs up, he was afraid that he would be eaten up by others when he came back, so he hid some, After finishing the work, go back and continue to enjoy the food.

Lin Weirui glanced at her servant, and said in a nonchalant way: "Talk out."

When everyone heard that Lin Weirui made it by himself, they were amazed again.But thinking of grandfather Lin's family background, he felt relieved.

The fourth lady was amused by A Funa's slander, and took it with a smile.Because the Qingtuan is cold, the fragrance is not so overbearing, and you can only smell it when you get close.The fourth lady was stunned when she smelled the familiar smell.When everyone saw the person who was still fine, their eyes suddenly turned red.

This time, the wife slave Lin Si was so anxious that she hurried forward to coax people. The fourth lady lost her composure in front of the junior, she wiped her eyes with a handkerchief in embarrassment, pushed her husband, but said with a smile: "蕤蕤How can I make Qingtuanzi? When I was not out of the cabinet, my mother always asked the servants in the family to start picking mugwort leaves to squeeze the juice and knead the noodles. This taste, how many years, is the same as before. Come on It’s been years since I’ve tasted it in the north. I lost my composure just now, which made everyone laugh.”

Qingtuan is a special snack during the Qingming Festival in the Jiangnan area. It is really rare in the northern area. Even if there is, it is not authentic.No, it was Wei Rui just now, and the Fourth Madam has already screamed loudly now.Although he was crying just now, but this time he is in much better spirits than before, and he smiles very nicely.

Fourth Master Lin didn't know how long it had been since he saw his wife's bright smile, and he felt relieved, and he immediately had a good impression of this nephew who he didn't know very well before.The fourth lady in this room was eagerly going to the kitchen to pick up a plate and put it out for everyone to eat.The men in that box have already started to get down to business.

The fourth lady went to tidy up her makeup halfway, so when the Youth League came to the table, they were already chatting about family matters.Lin Siye's family has all eaten breakfast, but now they will look at the dishes that have been swept away, and they will know how delicious this little dumpling is.Fortunately, the men all knew the significance of this little youth group to Aunt Lin, so they only tasted it a little, and then held back the rising appetite, and watched Fourth Aunt Lin's appetite with a smile.

By the time Lin Weirui was sent out, Fourth Master Lin had already patted Lin Weirui on the shoulder to say goodbye to him intimately, and Lin Muying, who had always been aloof, had already started calling her elder brother.

Ah Fu was dumbfounded in his heart watching from the side, this, the Fourth Master Lin's family has always been considered the most difficult to deal with in Xiangcheng!

Before leaving, Lin Weirui seemed to have no intention of saying: "My nephew brought two bottles of wine today, which are brewed according to ancient recipes, nourishing and nourishing health. My aunt is in poor health, so why not drink a little every day." Leaving Lin Si's family alone Believe it or not, but at the moment, he agreed without hesitation.
