The wealthy man's wife is a sideline [rebirth]

Chapter 7 Steamed Chicken with Ham

Su's kitchen has been very busy these days.

Marriage is a big event, and of course the dishes for entertaining guests cannot be perfunctory.Although Luo Yunshen came to visit as a junior, the Su family had to show an attitude to show that they valued him.

Su's father deliberately contacted his old friend and asked someone to take a good ham.He is engaged in the food industry, so all kinds of ingredients can be taken online, which is much more convenient than going outside to buy directly.

The whole ham is as long as an adult's arm. When it is not cut open, the outer skin is a kind of rustic grayish yellow, and the cortex is shrunken, making it look firm and weighty.

Su Qiao cut up the ham and sliced ​​it thinly to taste.

The ham is thinly sliced, oily and soft, showing an attractive deep red color, and the fat is evenly and delicately distributed on it, which is particularly mouth-watering.

Su's father was watching, and seeing Su Qiao's "delicious" expression, he couldn't help but said, "Cut some for me too."

Su Qiao took a white porcelain plate and sliced ​​a dozen slices of ham, and the father and son just ate in the kitchen.

The three-year-old ham has a special salty aroma in the mouth, and the taste is strong and delicious.

Father Su ate with relish, and asked after a while, "Do you use this to steam chicken?"

Su Qiao nodded: "The ham itself is salty enough. It is best used for steaming chicken. It tastes good and enhances the freshness. Then pour it in broth. The chicken is tender and not greasy. It is very delicious."

Su's father originally thought that the ham was delicious enough, but when he heard what Su Qiao said, he was full of expectations for the steamed chicken.

The soup is already being served in the kitchen. The chef is very skilled. Su Qiao tasted it and thought there was nothing wrong with it.He only needs to make a few dishes on the day to show that most of the process is still prepared by the chef and helpers.

Su's father understands everyone's hard work and promises that the monthly salary will be paid according to one and a half months. Everyone is very happy and works more meticulously.

……

A few days later, it was the time agreed in advance that Luo Yunshen came to visit.

The scent wafted from the kitchen early, making people uneasy.Su Guoan sat in the dining room after his morning exercise, waiting for the chef to deliver a bowl of beef brisket noodles.

The brisket is pre-cooked and used to sear the potatoes.Pour it on the noodles and eat it, and there are only large pieces of meat stewed until crispy.When you enter the mouth, the rich gravy is overflowing, and the mellow fragrance is delicious.

After breakfast, Su Guoan sat on the sofa and waited.From time to time, he glanced into the kitchen and out the door, not knowing what he was expecting.

When Su's mother woke up, she was a little surprised to see him sitting upright on the sofa.

"Seeing how much you didn't like Xiao Luo before, why are you still waiting?" Mother Su said. "It's only when things are settled that you feel better?"

Father Su wanted to refute, but he sniffed the fragrance in the air and didn't speak.

At the beginning of nine o'clock, everyone in the Su family was sitting in the living room.Su Qiao was next to Su's mother, like a child, occasionally her hair was messed up by Su's mother, and she tidied it up quietly, and then next to her.

Su Yu sat alone on the side, and smiled when he saw this: "Jiujiu is so big, why is he still clingy?"

Su Qiao turned her head and took a look, not wanting to pay attention to him, so she pursed her lips, looking unhappy.

Su Yu didn't know how much Su Qiao hated and hated him now, he just thought that Su Qiao was losing his temper.He shook his head and said with a smile: "You, you, you are still playing petty at the age of 20. You can't even say a word? A boy of this age should be more sensible."

He has a gentle tone, with a bit of blame on his face, but more of a smile, really like a brother who is sincerely worried about his wayward brother.

Su Qiao didn't understand why Su Yu could treat the family members who lived with him day and night with a hypocritical and gentle face, but secretly did all kinds of evil things without mercy.

But Su Qiao knew that this time he would not let Su Yu get his wish.Including hurting his parents, but also hurting himself.

Su Qiao looked at Su's father and Su's mother, and whispered, "I won't live at home after I get married... I want to spend more time with you now."

His voice is very soft, his eyes are round, and he looks very affectionate.

Mother Su patted his arm immediately: "We Jiujiu are obedient and filial." Then she turned to Su Yu. "You are right. One of you is well-behaved and the other is capable. I am happy to see you every day."

Su Yu was dumbfounded, and forced a smile: "Mom said so."

Mother Su went to talk to Su Qiao again, and Su Yu sat on the side stiffly, feeling that she was trapped in a wave of anger and shame.

Usually when he said this, Su's mother would read along with Su Qiao.Su Yu is very aware of this: Su Qiao is not good enough, and has no strengths other than being likable.With the eldest son Zhuyu in front, no matter how much Su's mother loves the younger son, she will feel that Su Qiao should learn from Su Yu.

So as long as Su Yu puts on the tone of an elder brother and mentions Su Qiao, the elders will always stand by his side and praise him accordingly.

But Su's mother just said something casually just now, and she didn't seem to agree very much.This made Su Yu feel that he had said something wrong.

Will Su's mother have any objections to him?After all, he is not his own... Sure enough, Su Qiao is more important in comparison, right?

Su Yu lowered his head, his eyes were dark.

At ten o'clock, Luo Yunshen drove to Su's house.

Cousin Luo Xingzhu sat in the co-pilot, and while unfastening his seat belt, he said, "I just asked my aunt, I heard that your little girl is only 20 years old?"

Luo Yun took a deep look at him and nodded.

Luo Xingzhu's face was shocked, he was silent for two seconds, and sighed: "You have taken advantage of it. Why don't my parents dislike you?"

Luo Yunshen: "..."

He got out of the car expressionlessly, and went to the trunk to get the gift he had prepared.

Precious tea, red wine specially ordered from abroad, and one or two moderately priced antique ornaments, etc., it is very appropriate to visit for the first time.

Su's father and Su's mother had already opened the door, with smiles on their faces, and said kindly: "Xiao Luo is here?"

Luo Yunshen nodded towards them and said politely, "Uncle Su, Aunt Su."

Su Yu stood behind Mother Su, and waited for them to finish greetings before walking forward, looked at Luo Yunshen, and shouted a little nervously: "Mr. Luo."

Luo Yunshen looked down at him, and responded lightly, "Yes."

A group of people walked into the house, followed by the Luo family brothers.

Luo Xingzhu murmured to his brother in a low voice: "You are making a lot of money! You have such a shy personality and seem to have no temper. Will you bully me in the future?"

Luo Yun frowned deeply and said, "Why should I bully him?"

"Tch..." Luo Xingzhu said disdainfully. "Pretend like a decent person."

Luo Yunshen has the tolerance of an elder brother, so he just pretends that he didn't hear it and doesn't care about him.

Luo Xingzhu was quiet for two seconds, and he couldn't help it anymore, and came up excitedly: "Come out to play together some other day? How about calling your little one and going to the hot spring?"

"No time." Luo Yunshen refused.

Luo Xingzhu muttered in a low voice: "Stingy..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly smelled a strong fragrance in the living room, rushing into his nostrils with an unstoppable posture, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath. "What is this...why is it so fragrant? Is there something delicious for lunch?"

Hearing someone talking, Su Guoan turned around and said with a smile: "There are delicious food, and there are plenty of them. The kitchen is preparing dishes, and I will let Jiujiu cook later. He cooks delicious food."

Luo Yunshen knew that most of the words were for himself, so he nodded seriously and said, "I'm looking forward to it."

The topic turned to the dishes at noon, Su Qiao quietly walked up to Luo Yunshen, and asked in a low voice, "Does Mr. Luo have any taboos?"

He looked a little worried, and secretly decided in his heart that if there was something Mr. Luo didn't like, he would immediately go to the kitchen and tell him to replace the dishes. Anything that Mr. Luo didn't like could not be served on the table.

After all, it is the first time to be a guest.Su Qiao thought in her heart.Be careful, be serious.

Luo Yun thought about it deeply, and said, "There's nothing I don't particularly like, I'm just allergic to peanuts."

"Yes, yes, yes." Luo Xingzhu added on the side. "My eldest brother coughed constantly because of eating peanuts when he was young, and his throat was swollen, so he went to the hospital. You can't put any peanuts in the dishes."

Su Qiao said "Oh", and then said: "Today's dishes don't use peanuts."

He turned around to go into the kitchen, hesitated for a moment, then turned back, touched his nose a little embarrassedly, and stammered: "No, you can't eat peanuts, I will remember this."

Luo Yun was startled for a moment, seeing that Su Qiao's face was flushed, but she was still staring at him, apparently waiting for an answer.He could only cough lightly, nodded and said, "Okay."

Everyone heard their conversation and let out a burst of good-natured laughter.Su Qiao was a little embarrassed, laughed a few times, and went into the kitchen as if running away.

……

All the ingredients have been processed and neatly placed together.Su Qiao plans to cook the braised lamb chops first, and when the lamb chops are baptized in the pot, they can do other things.

Blanch the marinated lamb chops, take them out after cooking, pass through cold water, and then throw them into a casserole with all the spices and simmer slowly.A pressure cooker can shorten the time for stewing lamb chops, but Su Qiao always feels that the lamb chops made in that way are not tasty enough.

Just like a stew, the soup cooked in a casserole over a low heat is definitely not the same as the 10-minute instant soup made in a pressure cooker.

Cooked lamb chops, the meat shrinks when heated, exposing the bones at both ends, and already has the unique aroma of lamb.

Su Qiao put the seasoning into the casserole, and the braised soy sauce dyed the soup brown, then covered the lid and prepared for the next dish.

Steamed chicken has requirements on the meat quality of the chicken, and you can't choose too old ones, otherwise the meat will be dry and woody, and the steamed chicken will look like dregs.The three-month-old chickens are prepared in the kitchen. They are not big, but the meat is tender.

The whole chicken has been marinated with salt, green onion and ginger in advance. Su Qiao took the time to put the chicken into the steamer and steam it for 15 minutes.

When the steamed chicken was taken out, the fat buried under the skin had been forced out by the fierce fire, and the porcelain plate containing the chicken was filled with light yellow steamed juice.Wait for the whole chicken to cool, then cut into chunks of similar size.At this time, the chicken showed an unreal yellow color, and when pressed with chopsticks, the full gravy flowed out.

This is not over yet, steamed chicken with ham, ham is the most important auxiliary material.Done well, this dish can bring out the tenderness of the chicken and the saltiness of the ham to the extreme.
