  After the flour was fermented with salt, Jiang Shu stood in a basin of clear water and washed his face. The water gradually began to become white and moist until the dough in Jiang Shu's hands was only left with gluten. There is no end, the washed noodles have to go through precipitation, and the starch that has settled inside is separated from the water. Finally, Jiang Shu is pouring out the water in the basin, and the rest is the ingredients for making the dough.
  The milky white starch looks attractive. Jiang Shu stirred the starch inside, only to feel that the starch inside is extremely smooth. The next step is to steam the starch in hot water through a plate to form a dough.  However, when starch is added to the plate, a thin layer of oil needs to be brushed on it. It must not be too much, otherwise it will be a little greasy. This is to allow the cold skin to be peeled off from the plate.  Jiang Shu was busy in the kitchen, and soon a dozen cold skins were ready.  The dough was cut by Jiang Shu, and then cucumber and carrot shreds were added to it, as well as gluten just made as ingredients, followed by the most critical step, Jiang Shu's secret seasoning and secret chili oil, put these Add it in and mix well, and a hot and sour cold noodle is ready.  In the scorching summer, the refreshing Liangpi made Ye'er beside him swallow his saliva.  Today, the Jiang family came back earlier than usual.  As soon as Jiang Laosan sat down, he couldn't wait to take a bite. The hot and sour taste made people feel refreshed, and the cold noodle was so smooth that it seemed unbelievable. There were slightly crunchy carrots, and Jiang Laosan sat there without saying a word, eating with big mouthfuls.  Jiang Cheng actually fell into a disadvantage today. Seeing Jiang Laosan eating so fast, he remembered that if he ate slowly, all the leftovers would be his father's.  Jiang Cheng: "Sister, it's really delicious. This spicy food is soft and long-lasting. It won't make me feel irritated, but it does have the comfort of eating spicy food! There is also sourness, which is just right."  Looking at them, Jiang Shu became more confident.  When Lu Han came over, the Jiang family was having dinner in the yard. He took what his parents had asked him to bring over. It was the vinegar they brewed themselves, and a bag of rice from the countryside. Jiang Shu and his eyes met Shi Shi smiled at him, and then stood up: "It's just in time for you to come, if you don't come, I will ask Jiang Cheng to send you hot and sour Liangpi later, I made it new, you try it taste."  Lu Han: "My parents said that the pork and cabbage pie that Miss Jiang sent over last time was delicious. Thank you for letting me come over. This rice is grown by myself in the country. It tastes sweet. This vinegar is brewed by myself. They said let me Come here to give you a taste."  No one ate the remaining cold skin, so Jiang Shu gave it to you Lu Han.  Inside the kitchen, Jiang Shu said: "In a moment, if you have any questions, please take the opportunity to ask them together. Don't just stay in the room and read by yourself."  Jiang Cheng looked at Jiang Shu: "Sister..."  Jiang Shu: "What are you doing in a daze, go quickly."  About half an hour later, Jiang Cheng came back, Jiang Laosan saw Jiang Cheng looking at him with dark eyes: "If you can't go to high school, you will be sorry for these Liangpi!" After finishing speaking, he raised his head: " Son, raising a son is hard work."  If I had known earlier, he would have eaten faster just now!  Ye'er couldn't help snickering in the room, she was eating apples, and Jiang Shu who was lying on the kang reading a book was also eating apples, Ye'er saw Jiang Shu lying on the kang reading again, so she hurried over to persuade her, Let Jiang Shu read it on the table, and then Jiang Shu gave her a story book, and finally the two reached an agreement that Jiang Shu will definitely not lie down and read books tomorrow.  The two of them showed a small head under the quilt.  "Girl, your brother said that it's not good to read like this. We must not do this next time."  "I know, I know."  In the main house, Jiang Laosan and Lu Xiao were also awake, talking about Jiang Shu's going to Feng's mansion, and Jiang Shu's going to buy Zhuangzi.  Jiang Laosan: "If she wants to buy a Zhuangzi, then give her the dowry money together. If you really get fifty taels of silver, then add it together to buy a Zhuangzi. It's not as close as taking the silver we gave her." ? Zhuangzi has a harvest every year, can earn money, and can send a lot of filial piety. Although you can't buy a big Zhuangzi, it's enough to buy a small Zhuangzi."  Lu Xiao nodded: "I think so too, married like this, my mother's family doesn't dare to look down upon me." After she finished speaking, she turned over and said, "I'm so annoyed when I think about Mrs. Chen, if Shu'er has such a Mother-in-law, I will definitely not let you marry me!"  Jiang Laosan quickly said: "Yes, yes, if it's really a sister-in-law, no, if it's really a mother-in-law like Chen, it's fine not to marry."  This day, the oil lamp in Jiang Cheng's house was not blown all night. After seeing Lu Han's knowledge, Jiang Cheng only felt that this person would surely skyrocket in time. Work harder.  In the morning of the next day, Jiang Shu finished his work, so he asked Jiang Laosan to send him to Feng's house before noon. This Feng's family is considered a big family in Anhe Town. I also know that there are probably countless courtyards inside. Jiang Shu doesn't have any envy. After all, everyone lives a little bit of life, and they also built the Feng family's family business bit by bit. Shu also must be able to buy such a big house.  Because of the notice posted by Feng Sheng, the Feng family has been very lively these days, especially around noon, but Jiang Shu is considered an outlier because he only came here at this time.  However, the Feng family can't just go in. You have to cross-examine. After all, there are many people and it's chaotic. Jiang Shu reported that it was the shopkeeper of Jiangji Tangshui shop. Just after entering Feng's house, Jiang Shu saw the man who was going out. Feng Sheng, after all, this is the domain of the Feng family, Jiang Shu stopped and greeted him as Mr. Feng.  Feng Sheng looked very happy: "Girl, is your mung bean cake inherited from your ancestors?"  Jiang Shu smiled and shook his head: "No."  Feng Sheng: "I bought a few pieces and ate a few pieces. The taste is amazing. I seldom eat pastries on weekdays. I ate a whole portion yesterday and I still feel a little unsatisfied." I often go to your shop, and the mung beans you use, I don't know what mung beans are, I know a shop, the mung beans are self-produced and sold, and the quality is excellent."  Jiang Shu found that Feng Sheng seemed very talkative.  The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, but Jiang Shu has no plans to buy mung beans for the time being. The mung beans she bought before are of good quality, and the mung bean seller is careful, because Jiang Shu buys a lot of mung beans, and picks the best one for Jiang Shu every time. .  There are many people in the back kitchen of the Feng family today. When Jiang Shu arrived, they looked at Jiang Shu and thought she was the master of the Feng family. Only then did I realize that this little girl came here for the fifty taels of silver.  Even an older man smiled: "When I was young, I wasn't as confident as her."  Jiang Shu heard the sound and looked, she smiled: "It doesn't matter what age you are."  The man laughed: "That's a big breath."  Afterwards, Jiang Shu didn't speak, and concentrated on making her hot and sour Liangpi.  During this period, Jiang Shu also looked at the food made by some people. They came prepared, and most of them made something cool or soft, but no one made hot and sour food. Liangpi, most of the ingredients made by some of them are very high-end, and the presentation is also very good-looking, but Jiang Shu admired it for a while.  The Feng family has rules, the maids came over and saw that everyone was almost done, and immediately began to carry the dishes, one by one, for Feng Sheng's father to taste, and those who had finished their work in the back kitchen rested here.  Jiang Shu was still thinking about what to eat when he went back tonight.  She really wanted to eat braised pork rice.  This is not troublesome, why not make braised pork rice when she returns home later.  The man who just talked to Jiang Shu stood aside and looked at Jiang Shu. He asked, "This girl speaks so loudly just now, where does this girl come from? My master is the chef of Qingxiang Building!"  Jiang Shu didn't expect that this man turned out to be the apprentice of the chef of Qingxianglou. After all, Jiang Shu had been to Qingxianglou for dinner before, but Jiang Shu's appearance fell in the eyes of the man, and it was because of her identity that she was shocked. After all Qingxianglou is the best restaurant in Anhe Town.  While the two were talking, a servant girl ran over: "Everyone, who made that hot and sour cold noodle dish just now, our master ate it, and want another one!"  Speaking of this, if it wasn't for the sake of saving face, the maid's saliva would flow out. She was the one who was serving at the side just now. Looking at the Liangpi covered with hot and sour sauce, she would have wanted to eat a few mouthfuls.  When Jiang Shu was just making it, he just made some more noodles, and there was still some seasoning sauce. Now that the noodles were made, it would not be troublesome to make another hot and sour cold noodle. Jiang Shu smiled and nodded, saying yes, then turned around Continue to make hot and sour cold noodle.  Everyone looked at Jiang Shu one after another. At this time, their expressions were complicated. It was completely different from when Jiang Shu came over just now. This little girl is so young, but she has such abilities?  After finishing the hot and sour cold skin, Jiang Shu was going to get the money given by Feng's family. When Jiang Shu went out, she passed by the man who just claimed to be the cook's apprentice of Qingxianglou, and walked over without looking sideways.  Jiang Shu was sent out from Feng's house by Feng Sheng himself. Feng Sheng looked really happy, and praised Jiang Shu's cooking for a while, and Jiang Shu got into the carriage. It was the youngest Jiang who was waiting here. With Jiang Shu.  The carriage went far away, Jiang Shu left and opened the curtain, smiling: "Father, fifty taels of silver is heavy, and we are earning some silver, and our Zhuangzi will be settled!" Go back and eat braised pork rice."  Jiang Laosan smiled: "You will be very busy these few days."  Jiang Shu: "Why do you say that?"  Jiang Laosan: "Yesterday, I discussed with your mother. You don't want to buy Zhuangzi, so go buy it. We happen to have some dowry silver for you. You add it and buy Zhuangzi as a dowry. Zhuangzi has only one shop, so it's okay. But this is also partly due to your credit, otherwise your dowry would not have these." After finishing speaking, he said happily: "I'll go back to make stewed pork rice later, don't forget to give you more Daddy make some!"
