Chapter 78 (2/2)

”Uh huh. Open a small cap on the coconut and I can make the rest. ”

According to Wang Yue, she cut the upper half of the coconut horizontally with a long knife. Suddenly, the coconut inside overflowed along the edge of the knife and cut it into a coconut cover. The coconut fragrance drifted. Ah Yao came to smell it. The fragrance reminded her of the coconut sugar she ate in the new year and the coconut milk she used to drink.

Pour out the coconut juice and filter. Leave the coconut shell for standby. The chopped chicken pieces are cooked in water. The hollow coconut shell is used as a container and put into the chicken pieces. Soon, the coconut is filled, sprinkled with medlar, chicken heart jujube and longan. Finally, the container is filled with clear coconut juice, soaked over the chicken pieces, sprinkled with a little salt, covered with a coconut cover, covered with a layer of bamboo paper, tied with fine hemp rope, and stewed in a steamer for an hour.

Under the action of time, the heat catalyzes the delicacy. The taste of the old chicken is stewed. With the fragrance of coconut, the busy servant in the kitchen follows the fragrance to a Yao and asks, ”what are you doing, little sister? It's very fragrant!”

”Yes, the chicken soup is delicious. What material do you add? I've never smelled it.”

A Yao smiled and nodded along with their words. She didn't take their words. The talkative and nosey servant read out the materials of her soup, but the coconut didn't guess.

Coconuts are round brown fruits full of ”pine hair”. They are hard and hollow. But when asked how to cook, they don't know and don't smell the fragrance. Among the many ingredients sent, coconuts are ignored.

The servant woman argued for a long time. Ah Yao listened to a lot of useful knowledge about ingredients. They looked again and were all cheated by ah Yao. They were so angry that they closed their mouths and scattered birds and animals.

When I looked at it, the taste of chicken soup became stronger and stronger.

At the moment when the pot came out, everyone's eyes focused on a Yao's hand. The three legged small tripod supported the coconut. The bamboo paper was wet and close to the coconut. A Yao carefully picked up the small tripod and sent it to Mrs. Meng.

”Well, well, you have a heart... Kuang Er should have entrusted someone to bring coconuts from Danzhou?”

Mrs. Meng, with a pleasant face, sniffed the fragrance of coconut, opened the lid herself, and a richer sweet smell of coconut floated out.

From a Yao's position, the soup noodles reflect light. It is the clear oil boiled by the old chicken itself, not the sweet yellow chicken oil.

”Madam, be careful.”

”Don't worry, old lady!”

A Yao and the servant girl hurried back and forth.

”Hehe, don't worry, I'm not in a hurry.” Mrs. Meng was amused and scooped up a spoonful of clear soup. The bottom of the soup was actually coconut milk. The slight acid of the coconut juice neutralized the greasiness of the old chicken. Medlar longan and chicken heart jujube enhanced the sweetness. The fine salt was fresh and smelled fragrant. The stew was clear and sweet, and the chicken was not old. The old lady was very satisfied with it. She was surprised that she ate nine times out of ten of the chicken until it came to the bottom.

”I ate so much!”

”Old lady, you have eaten so much. What should you do for dinner?” The servant girl stamped her feet.

”My mouth is full, but my stomach is not full.” Old lady Meng said with a smile and asked the servant girl to go to the inner room to get her a purse and give it to a Yao. Starting with a little heavy, a Yao subconsciously refused: ”madam, thank you for your kindness, but I can't accept it.”

Mrs. Meng: ”I don't like to hear that. I had a good time. I'll give you some gadgets, but you don't want to accept them. You deliberately let the old woman make it difficult for me to live this year.”

”Take it. The old lady ate happily. She must accept the gift you gave back.” The servant girl also advised.

”Then... I might as well obey my orders.” She put her purse away and patted the inner bag in her arms to make sure it wouldn't fall off. Mrs. Meng smiled.
