Chapter 206 (2/2)
”I'll be fooled. With my specious words in front of him, he won't be fooled. I'll take off my head and kick you as a Cuju. Don't forget, this is a greedy food than you...”
Duan Tingxuan patted his chest confidently. Before he finished, Su wennuan was unhappy. He gave him a slight twist: ”what do you mean? How can you be greedy than me? If I am greedy, what are you and the old lady? I think of modesty now.”
Duan Tingxuan smiled and suddenly saw Su wennuan murmuring, ”we'd better strike while the iron is hot and let him see the benefits of pepper as soon as possible. Don't let you ruin my business. Then he jumped into bed and picked seven or eight dried peppers and said to Duan Tingxuan: ”Come on, let's go to the kitchen and let you see the magic of this thing today. But no one can resist the temptation of pepper when eating goods. If you have the ability, you have to make a clear distinction with it after you taste it. Then I'll convince you.”
Duan Tingxuan was stunned at first, and then he understood Su wennuan's intention. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up: ”madam is really a good plan.” after that, the couple went out to the kitchen. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Liu's daughter-in-law welcoming them and said with a smile: ”The master came to the kitchen earlier and said that the sweet potato dessert of the lady was delicious. Let's get some more tonight. By now, I've baked the sweet potato and it will be ready later. The broken peanuts, all kinds of dried fruit and honey milk are also ready. Just wait for the lady to come and make it.”
Su wennuan said with a smile, ”didn't I tell my sister-in-law how to do it? You can make such a simple thing yourself. What are you waiting for me to do? I want to get another thing today. I don't have time. My sister-in-law can do it by herself. If you can't remember anything, ask me again.”
The Liu family's daughter-in-law was overjoyed when she said this, and nodded her head again and again. She looked at Su wennuan's Chili Pepper curiously, but she was smart enough not to ask more. In this kitchen for three years, anyone who has a little unique cooking skills is cherished. Su wennuan's willingness to teach her the practice of crushed sweet potato with cream fruit has made her overjoyed, and she dare not be greedy to do it again.
So he got busy, picked two big sweet potatoes, cut them open on both sides, then took out the pulp, mashed it, beat an egg, stirred it evenly, put it back into the sweet potato skin, steamed it in the pot, mixed it with milk, spread the broken fruit on it, looked at it for a while, felt very satisfied, and then brought it to Su wennuan, only to hear her praise: ”Yes, yes, it's no worse than mine. I'll tell you, a smart person like sister-in-law Liu must be able to learn such a simple thing.”
Liu's daughter-in-law said with a smile, ”it's really not difficult to say how to do it. It's rare that it's the ingenuity of the lady. For example, who doesn't have broken fruit, milk, eggs and sweet potatoes in the kitchen? But I haven't seen anyone who can come up with such a way, which makes the sweet potatoes that can't be on the table become delicious snacks. Does the lady's heart really have seven holes and eight orifices?”
”Well, don't praise me.” Su wennuan smiled. At this time, the dried pepper had been cut. She collected the pepper seeds in paper and wrapped them carefully. Then she poured oil into the pot. After the oil was hot, she put the pepper section into the pot and fried it. In an instant, a pungent fragrance wafted in the kitchen. Liu's daughter-in-law choked and coughed because she was so close, and her tears ran down and kept fanning the lampblack path: ”What's this? Why... What's this choking smell? What is Lady Wang doing?”
”This is flame pepper. In fact, I think it's more suitable to call pepper. I'll use it to make some spicy oil, and then make some spicy beef sauce. It's the most appetizing thing.” Su wennuan said with a smile. Before his voice fell, he heard Duan Tingxuan mutter in a low voice: ”our master's appetite still needs to be opened? If it doesn't open, it can be eaten very well. If it opens, I don't know what to do.”
Both of them laughed and suddenly heard a voice outside the door saying, ”what's the smell? Why is it so choking?”
When they looked back, they saw Su Donglou standing outside the door. Seeing Duan Tingxuan looking over, they waved and said, ”come here. I ask you, how are you two living here? If you don't like it, go back to me.”
Duan Tingxuan knew that Su Donglou had something to say about himself, so he quickly smiled and said, ”thank you, master, but our husband and wife are doing well here, and the master attaches great importance to us...” before he finished, he saw Su Donglou stare, and then he pulled Duan Tingxuan not far away and whispered to him: ”News came from Suzhou. It seems to say that on the day when the gods came down, someone in the escort of Xiangyang king got off the ship and went to shenxianling.” (to be continued.)
