The hunter's husband is so sweet
Chapter 205 Visiting the Lantern Festival
Qi Xuan's meal was a bit complicated, so they didn't have any food until after noon. Qi Zheng just heard that he even injured his hand, "Xiao Xuan, don't worry, we can eat in the evening."
At this time, Aunt Wang brought the dumplings, "You haven't eaten yet?" Qi Yue explained that they had spent too long thinking about what to eat, and then Qi Xuan cut his hand while cooking.
"Are you okay?" Aunt Wang was also a little worried and came to the kitchen to check Qi Xuan's hand. Qi Xuan felt a little embarrassed by what they did to her. "It was just a small cut, it's okay, it's almost healed."
Aunt Wang saw him making the batter and asked curiously, "What are you going to make?" "Fried eggplant boxes." Qi Xuan said a name she had never heard of.
"What kind of dish is this?" Seeing Aunt Wang was puzzled, Qi Xuan demonstrated it to her. He picked up a piece of eggplant, put a slice of lotus root on it, and then put a layer of meat filling, another layer of lotus root, and a layer of eggplant. After it was done, he coated it with a layer of batter and fried it in a pan.
After it turns golden brown, remove from the oil. "Godmother, wait for it to cool down and try it." After saying that, Qi Xuan continued to make the eggplant box. Aunt Wang looked at the fried golden and crispy eggplant box, blew on it, and took a bite. "Oh, it's really hot, but it's really delicious."
Qi Yue and Lin Chen were also attracted by the aroma, "What delicious food? I want some too." Qi Xuan gave them each one, "Be careful of the heat. Sit aside after you finish eating, or I'll eat you both up."
Lin Chen and Qi Yue laughed and ran away with the plates. Qi Xuan had already prepared all the other dishes, except for the fried eggplant boxes. He didn't make too many because he was afraid that the fried ones would get cold after a long time. So he fried them until they were 80% done, and then fried them again in the pan, so that they were all hot.
"It's time to eat!" He brought the fried eggplant box to the table and called for everyone to eat. Each person had a bowl of black sesame dumplings, and then there were small pancakes baked by Lin Chen. Qi Xuan finally thought of a name for the Beijing-style shredded pork with sour sauce, which was called shredded pork with sour cabbage and tofu soup, and fried eggplant box. Although it took a long time, the taste was still the best.
"This braised pork shreds taste better if you roll it up with a pancake." Qi Xuan said as he rolled one up for Fu Jingyi, "Try it."
The man smiled and ate it directly, nodding and praising, "It's really delicious."
Everyone followed Qi Xuan's method and rolled up the pancakes to eat. Qi Yue finished one and said, "Hmm, it's so delicious. Brother Xiaoxuan, teach me." Qi Xuan nodded and said, "I'll make it in a few days."
The meal was too late, and no one was hungry at night, so they gathered together to look at the stars and the moon. Everyone held a cup of caramel milk tea that Qi Xuan had improved, "Can we guess the lantern riddles tomorrow?"
Qi Xuan had seen this in a TV drama before. When watching it, he always laughed at those riddles for being too easy. He could guess them, but the people in the dramas still pretended that the questions were so difficult and they looked like they didn't know.
"Yes, if you guess correctly, you will get some small gifts." Fu Jingyi explained to him, "Are you interested? Let's try it tomorrow?"
Qi Xuan shook his head, "No, let's just go and look at the lanterns." Qi Yue also said, "That's right, those lantern riddles have always been guessed by scholars, they are very difficult."
The next morning, Qi Xuan took advantage of the morning time to write down the recipes for yesterday's three dishes. He would go to the Yingke Building to give them to Manager Wu. They would probably not be back until the evening. Fu Jingyi also sent Bai Ji and Zhao Cai to Aunt Wang's house and asked her to help take care of them.
The town was also very busy today. They first quickly bought food and necessities. Zhang Hui sent a man from the escort agency to take them back to Qijia Village, and they went to the welcoming building.
"Shopkeeper Wu, here are three recipes, please accept them." Qi Xuan handed three recipes to Shopkeeper Wu, who also took out a banknote and gave it to Fu Jingyi, then began to study the recipes, "Brother-in-law, do we have to eat this marinated pork with pancakes?"
"Not really, rice will do, but it tastes better when wrapped in pancakes." Qi Xuan felt that no matter how much he explained, it would be better to just let him try it directly, so he borrowed the kitchen from Manager Wu and cooked for them himself.
After Shopkeeper Wu had a bite, he realized that it was indeed more delicious when rolled in a pancake. Qi Yue had been talking about wanting to eat it again since he had eaten it yesterday, so he kept eating it since the marinated shredded pork was served.
"By the way, I have also upgraded the milk tea. I just told the chef the recipe." Qi Xuan said to Manager Wu when he saw the waiter bringing up a few bowls of caramel milk tea.
However, the temperature of the caramel must be controlled well. If it is too short, the caramel flavor will not come out, and if it is too long, it will become bitter. The chef tried several times before he got the hang of it.
After dinner, everyone discussed where to go next. The lantern festival hasn't started yet. If they go shopping now, they will be tired by night and will probably not be in the mood to see the lanterns by then.
"Let's go to the escort agency." Zhang Hui suggested, "Qi Zheng and I also have things to do." Qi Zheng nodded, "The New Year is almost over, and everyone is coming back one after another. It's time to start arranging the escort."
"Okay, let's go shopping in the evening." Qi Yue had no objection. He was still thinking about the snacks from the escort agency.
At night, everyone went to see the lantern festival. Qi Yue ate all afternoon and his stomach was full. "You can really eat." Qi Xuan felt bloated just by looking at him. How did he stuff all those snacks in?
Qi Yue also knew that she had eaten too much, and felt a little embarrassed, "It's delicious, but I ate a little too much." After saying that, she burped. Qi Zheng had no choice but to tell Zhang Hui, "Don't let him eat anymore later, otherwise he probably won't be able to sleep tonight."
Zhang Hui nodded, "I know, I will definitely keep an eye on him." Qi Zheng didn't quite believe him, "Can you really do it? Don't just come back and ignore him when he starts to act like a spoiled brat."
Zhang Hui coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment, "I will definitely not let him eat it. Don't worry." The six of them went out together, but they separated as they walked around, two by two. Anyway, they had already agreed to meet at the escort agency in the end, and if they didn't have time to go back, they could stay there for a night.
Qi Xuan didn't want to guess lantern riddles, he just wanted to hang out with Fu Jingyi and enjoy their time together. Fu Jingyi bought him a little rabbit lantern and asked him to hold it. He felt a little embarrassed at first, but he took it after seeing that everyone on the street was holding a lantern.
The two walked around and bought a lot of small things. At this time, Qi Xuan vaguely heard the sound of a child crying. He pulled Fu Jingyi's sleeve and said, "Brother Yi, did you hear it? There seems to be crying."
Fu Jingyi listened carefully, then pulled Qi Xuan in one direction, and indeed found a crying child who looked only four or five years old. Qi Xuan felt a little distressed, and squatted down, "Why are you crying? Talk to the uncles."
The child cried very hard, and spoke incoherently, "I can't find my daddy and father, wuwuwuwuwu." It was probably a child who got lost from his family while watching the lantern festival. Qi Xuan looked up at Fu Jingyi, "What should we do? Should we send him to the government to help him find his relatives?"
Fu Jingyi picked up the child at once, "Little kid, do you remember where you were just now? Can the uncles take you back to find your father?"
