A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money
Chapter 82 Seafood Feast
Leng Yan introduced the dishes one by one and motioned for them to taste them.
Sheng Yuxing and the other man did not hesitate to eat without hesitation. They had been very greedy for a long time and started to eat with relish in no time.
The shrimps are stir-fried with green onions, the shrimp meat is firm, sweet and full of green onion aroma, and the taste is first-class.
The fish balls dipped in soy sauce and garlic sauce are chewy and delicious, and the fried yellow croaker is crispy and delicious.
Sheng Yuxing and Xiao Ping couldn't stop eating, and after eating the crab pot, their eyes lit up.
"This crab pot is so delicious. It's spicy and fresh, the chicken wings are tasty, and even the yam at the bottom is so delicious!"
Xiao Pingyue likes spicy food, and this crab pot is just what he likes.
"Miss Leng, I really admire your good craftsmanship."
Xiao Ping was so happy while eating that he wanted to recite a poem.
"Just because of your excellent cooking skills, if my family has any banquets in the future, I will definitely pay you a high price to cook."
Leng Yan smiled and refused to accept it.
Sheng Yuxing on the side was thankful for his wise decision and had booked Leng Yan in advance to help prepare the banquet.
"Miss Leng, don't be so modest. With your cooking skills, you can't find many people as good as you in Hulu Town or even in Beicheng County.
Anyway, you are the first person I have seen who can cook sea crabs so deliciously. Not only this, but also the vegetables in this crab pot are first-rate. "
Speaking of this, Leng Yan is a bit regrettable. It would taste better if some soft and glutinous potatoes were added to the crab pot.
She had never seen this kind of crop in her time, and she didn't dare to buy it from the mall rashly.
Although there were some vegetables planted in the family garden, they were not yet ripe, and she bought the seeds from the caravan on the pretext of something.
When the potatoes are ripe in the future, it would be okay to explain it to my family, but if I want to sell them openly, what kind of excuse should I use?
Leng Yan was worried, and Xiao Pingyue, who was standing beside her, saw this and asked softly, "Miss Leng, is there anything bothering you?"
Sheng Yuxing looked over curiously when he heard that, while Leng Yan was stunned. Then he thought that the Sheng family’s ship could only go to the south, so they should be knowledgeable and experienced.
So she asked, "I heard that the south is rich in resources. I happened to hear someone in the caravan mention that there seems to be something in the south that is not food, but is particularly resistant to hunger and can be used in cooking..."
Leng Yan spoke as she recalled.
Sheng Yuxing and the other man looked at each other in surprise when they heard this. Xiao Pingyue took a sip of tea thoughtfully and spoke after a long time.
“Although I don’t know what the girl is talking about, my family has a cargo ship coming back from Qianzhou, and it will arrive at the dock tomorrow.
At that time, girl, you can go and take a look at the cargo on the cargo ship to see if there is anything you want.
Even if there is none, the girl can ask the captain on the boat. They are knowledgeable and if it is a product from the south, even if you have never heard of it, you can still ask more about it next time you go out on the boat. "
When Xiao Pingyue said these words, he was calm and gentle, with the appearance of a modest gentleman. Although he was a scholar, he was worldly-wise but not worldly.
Anyway, in Leng Yan's opinion, at this moment he was like an angel descended to earth.
Leng Yan happily stood up and offered him a glass of tea instead of wine, but Xiao Pingyue smiled and waved his hand, "No problem, it's just a small favor, you don't have to be polite."
Besides, it is thanks to Brother Sheng and Miss Leng that I can enjoy such a delicious seafood feast today, so I should do my part.”
Seeing this, Sheng Yuxing told her not to be polite. If she was really embarrassed, the worst that could happen was that she could find that thing and cook it for them to try.
"Hehe, we actually just want to make friends with Miss Leng, so that if there is anything delicious in the future, you can think of us first!"
Seeing this, Leng Yan had no reason to refuse, so she chatted for a few more words before leaving the box.
Compared to the quietness in the box, the hall was packed with people, and there was an endless queue at the door.
"Hey, little boss, your new dish today, shrimp soup, is so delicious!"
When a customer saw Leng Yan, he couldn't stop praising her, "It's a pity that you can't take it away, otherwise I would have taken some home for my mother to try."
"Yes, yes, and this crab pot has so many different flavors, especially the sauce mixed with rice. It's so delicious that I can't stop eating it!"
Leng Yan was very happy to receive the good feedback, and said that the food in the shop would become more and more numerous, and the taste would get better and better in the future, so they should look forward to it.
After she finished speaking, Leng Yan went to the backyard. Her parents were still busy in the kitchen. Seeing that the kitchen was in order and there was no room for her to do anything, she went to the utility room in the backyard.
She remembered the pickled green apricots at home, so she took a few jars and put them in the utility room.
Sheng Yuxing and Xiao Pingyue had helped him so much, Leng Yan felt bad for just treating them to a meal.
She thought that although green apricots were not very rare, they would taste good if pickled with honey, so she gave them to them as a gift for them to try something new.
The utility room was quiet. Leng Yan had just picked up two jars on the left and right when he suddenly heard a strange gasping sound.
Leng Yan was very sensitive to sounds and quickly figured out that the panting sound was not one but two overlapping ones, one from a man and one from a woman.
She tensed up and quickly looked around the utility room, but didn't see anyone.
Before her mind could catch up with her body, she walked out of the utility room in a few steps and glanced towards the well in the yard.
There were two large wooden basins by the well, with a pile of dishes stacked in them waiting to be washed.
The hall and the kitchen are the busiest at the moment, so most of the staff are helping out in the front. Several aunts are on duty in the backyard, with one aunt left to wash the dishes every day in case there is a shortage of dishes.
But now, the dishes have not been washed, and there is no sign of the aunt. Leng Yan quickly went over it in his mind, thinking that it was that aunt's duty to wash the dishes today.
Before he could figure out what was going on, the noise from the woodshed next door became louder and louder.
Leng Yan had a frown on his face and was eavesdropping openly, looking really constipated.
"Hey, where has Aunt Wu gone to be lazy again?
The dirty dishes in the box in the front hall are almost piled up like a mountain, and they haven’t been moved to the backyard to be cleaned. It’s really annoying!”
In addition to helping out in the kitchen, Aunt Liu also has to help manage the chores of several other aunts on a daily basis.
She had just finished her work in the front hall and helped to clear the dishes on the table, but she saw that no one had put away the box containing the dirty dishes behind the cabinet. She couldn't help but get angry.
When she rushed to the backyard, she was surprised and said, "Hey, Sister Yan, what are you doing?"
It's no wonder that Aunt Liu was surprised. Leng Yan's posture was indeed strange. He was holding a jar on each side, with his head stretched out and his waist hunched, trying hard to listen to the movements in the woodshed.
When Leng Yan discovered Aunt Liu, it was too late to stop her. Aunt Liu's loud voice had already penetrated the door and was heard clearly by everyone in the room.
Then from the woodshed came the rustling sound of someone getting dressed, and the sound of firewood slipping as people hurriedly bumped into it.
