The poor little girl who traveled through the book, her father was lazy, her mother was stingy, and

"Father, you just swore that I became smart because I got the blessing of saving Master Gu..."

The glorious image of Lin Dajiang in Lin Xiaoman's mind was shattered in an instant.

Dengdengdeng walked forward quickly by himself.

"Oh, Xiaoman is angry." Lin Dajiang smiled and shook his head, then followed in three or two steps.

"Dad was just joking, why did Xiaoman take it seriously?" Lin Dajiang smiled foolishly beside Lin Xiaoman as if he was coaxing a child.

"I thought Father really wanted to exchange it for silver?" Lin Xiaoman pretended to be angry.

"How could that be possible! If I changed, your mother would tear me into pieces!" Seeing Xiaoman slow down, Lin Dajiang slowed down too.

The father and daughter spent the two summers leisurely.

During this time, Lin Dajiang spent his last few copper coins on two meat buns and two vegetable buns, and gave the two meat buns to Lin Xiaoman.

Lin Xiaoman blinked, stuffed a meat bun into Lin Dajiang's hand when he was not paying attention, replaced it with a vegetable bun and ran away.

"You kid, I've already told you that I don't like meat buns." Lin Dajiang chased after her for two steps, but Xiaoman ran like a monkey, very fast and agile, not like a girl at all.

Forget it, it’s such a hot day and Lin Dajiang doesn’t want to run.

Seeing that his father stopped chasing him, Lin Xiaoman stopped running.

Although Sha Xiaoman couldn't speak before, I didn't expect that he had such good physical fitness.

He was limping and running, and Lin Dajiang had a hard time chasing him.

She finished two buns in seven or eight bites and saw Lin Dajiang still eating the meat bun in small bites.

Hey, just eat it slowly and savor it!

And he said he didn't like meat buns...

After being in this novel world for about a month, Lin Xiaoman feels that Lin Dajiang's family is completely different from what is described in the book.

She seems to be quite lucky.

I have never felt the love of family before, but I have experienced it in this family.

Love is like a trickle of water.

It has never been overwhelming, but it has been a steady flow.

"Dad, let's go in from the back door." Seeing that there were already many diners in the lobby of Ruyi Building, Lin Xiaoman pulled Lin Dajiang and took a detour.

I entered from the back door and happened to run into a waiter I knew well.

"The shopkeeper said that when Miss Lin arrives, she should go directly to the second floor."

"Young man, go ahead and do your work. We'll go up by ourselves."

The waiter shook his head and said with a smile, "It's not busy now. Today is not a market day. It's not busy."

The waiter is too enthusiastic.

Lin Xiaoman and Lin Dajiang were taken to the private room on the second floor. Dacheng and Dayong, who had just learned to make two portions from her, were also there.

"Master Lin."

The two spoke in unison.

Lin Xiaoman was shocked.

These two men looked to be over thirty years old, older than she was in both periods.

What's more, here, she is just a short twelve-year-old girl.

Lin Dajiang estimated that he was about 1.8 meters tall, but she only reached his chest. It was so cruel, she was less than 1.3 meters tall.

"Don't call me Master, it sounds weird." Lin Xiaoman found a seat by the window and sat down, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"No, Master taught us his unique skills. If we don't call you Master, what should we call you?" The man named Dacheng was slightly taller and smiled a little stiffly.

"I don't teach for free, your boss paid for it."

“How can you become a disciple without spending money?” Another man named Dayong hung his hands, trying to open his squinting eyes wide.

"To learn from a master is to provide for his retirement."

Lin Xiaoman was glad that he didn't drink the water at this time.

Otherwise, she would probably not be able to hold back her mouth from gushing out a waterfall.

"Miss Lin, this is the dish the shopkeeper ordered, Ruyi Eight Treasures Duck from Ruyi Tower." The waiter put down the tray in his hand and opened the lid.

"This Eight Treasures Duck is a specialty of Ruyilou. It has been available since the restaurant opened."

"It smells good!" Lin Dajiang looked at the whole duck in a big stew bowl and felt hungry again.

Lin Xiaoman also smelled the fragrance. For people like them who have been lacking oil and water all year round, this Eight Treasure Duck is simply the most delicious thing in the world.

However, for those who can often go to restaurants to eat, they may get tired of eating the Eight Treasure Duck.

Lin Xiaoman was a little curious, "Does Ruyilou have other special dishes?"

"Yes!" The waiter proudly enumerated, "There are stir-fried rabbit meat, ginseng black chicken soup, crystal pork elbow, braised yellow eel..."

The waiter was still reading out the menu, and Lin Xiaoman listened and found that they were all classic dishes.

It was the middle of summer, and it wasn't like her previous era when there was air conditioning. It was okay to eat hot pot even in the middle of summer. She could just turn the air conditioner down and enjoy the hot pot in the coolness.

Hot inside and cool outside, so sour and refreshing.

Lin Xiaoman interrupted the waiter with a crisp voice, "Brother, it's so hot, don't you have any special cold dishes?"

"Cold dishes?" The waiter paused, "Yes! Do peanuts count?"

"Just... gone?"

The waiter scratched his head in bewilderment and smiled rather sheepishly, "There is also cold cucumber salad, but who would order cold cucumber salad when they come here? Don't they all come here for Ruyi House's specialty dishes?"

Lin Xiaoman's mind popped into the simple and delicious cold dishes she had made.

Preserved egg tofu, cold shredded chicken, cold fungus, cold shredded potato, hot and sour houttuynia, cold garlic eggplant, cold beef...

But nowadays cows are used for draft and cannot be slaughtered at will.

But she didn't say much. Without knowing the specific situation, it would be difficult to make a random recommendation.

As expected, those who can open a restaurant are all very skilled. The Eight Treasures Duck is delicious and the soup is fresh. Lin Dajiang thinks it is the most delicious duck he has ever eaten in his life.

It’s a pity that peach blossom is not here.

When I have more money in the future, my whole family will come to Ruyilou for a meal.

After eating and drinking, when most of the diners who had lunch at Ruyi Tower had left, it was time to sit down.

Lin Xiaoman went downstairs and in front of Manager Tong and two apprentices, poured out the clean water on the basin, leaving the batter at the bottom, and scooped it evenly with a spoon.

"Uncle Tong, boil a pot of hot water, prepare another pot of cold water, and prepare a small bowl of oil." After giving the instructions, Lin Xiaman took out two jelly mold pots he brought from home.

Wait for the hot water to boil, brush a layer of oil on the pot, scoop a spoonful of batter, gently shake it to spread it evenly, put it in the boiling water pot, cover the pot and bring to a boil.

After a while, remove the lid.

"Steam it for a while, and when the dough starts to form big bubbles, take it out and put it in cold water to cool it down."

Lin Xiaoman then prepared the second pot, following the same steps.

"Put this second pot in boiling water and cover it with a lid, then we can carefully take out the dough from here."

"Brush a layer of oil on the surface to prevent sticking. This step is very important." Lin Xiaoman brushed the oil, gently scraped it with a spatula, and then peeled off a layer of crystal clear dough with his hands.

She made two more pictures according to the instructions, and when she was done she asked the two apprentices, "Do you want to try it?"

Dacheng was a little hesitant, but Dayong was eager to try. He glanced at Shopkeeper Lin and said, "I'll do it!"

He recalled the steps Miss Lin took to make jelly in his mind, and followed the instructions to scoop a spoonful of batter into the pot, shaking it gently and putting it back into the pot.

After the bubbles appear, take it out, put it in cold water, and start preparing the next one.

My movements were a little unfamiliar, but I completed them all according to the steps she taught me. Finally, I applied a layer of oil and peeled off the skin.

Dayong held the dough excitedly and carefully, being very cautious for fear of tearing it.

"Ah, it's just thick on one side and thin on the other. It's not as good as the one made by the master."

Lin Xiaoman smiled and nodded: "It's okay, it's good enough to do it like this for the first time, just do it a few more times."

Next, the two apprentices, Dayong and Dacheng, took turns to make it.

After Lin Xiaoman's bowl of batter was used up, she made a serving of spicy and sour cucumber and peanut jelly, which even the chef of Ruyilou found refreshing and appetizing.

Shopkeeper Tong took a bite and tasted it carefully. It tasted almost the same as what he had yesterday.

"Uncle Tong, how about you give out a few small plates and let those diners have a taste?" Lin Xiaoman pointed at the only two remaining tables of guests in the lobby and said with a smile.

"Okay, Miss Xiaoman has a good brain."

Shopkeeper Lin ordered Dacheng and Dayong to quickly mix the remaining jelly, divide it into a dozen small plates, and give each diners in the hall a small bowl.

"Hey, what is this?"

The waiter introduced with a smile: "We have a new cold dish. Please try it."

Several diners are regular customers of Ruyilou, and it is the first time for them to eat the dishes served by Ruyilou.

A few people tasted it doubtfully, and suddenly their appetites were whetted. Their already full stomachs seemed to have more room, and they began to eat with a grunt.

It’s a pity that the plate is too small and it’s gone in just four or five bites.

It's gone as soon as I tasted it, not satisfying at all!

"Waiter, another serving!"

The waiter pushed and smiled: "Dear guest, our restaurant hasn't served the new dishes yet, so we're sold out! If you like them, come to Ruyi Tower tomorrow."

"Shopkeeper Tong, why are you still keeping us in suspense?"

"That's right, it keeps people on suspense!"

Shopkeeper Tong chuckled in his heart, just wanting to whet people's appetite.

He walked leisurely to the lobby and apologized to several complaining guests.

"Dear guests, this is a new dish we are trying out today. We only have this one. The ingredients are hard to come by and the preparation is complicated. We don't have it today." Shopkeeper Tong said with a smile, "Well, I'll write a note to you guests. If you come to Ruyi Tower tomorrow, each table will get a free serving of jelly."
