Qi Tianyun's guards were on guard, but no matter how they looked at it, they didn't think the two siblings seemed to know martial arts.
Couldn't it be that the enemy's hiding skills are stronger
But following behind Hou Ye's chariot and horses all the time, and still carrying such a weapon, no matter how you look at it, it feels wrong.
Seeing Lord Hou's carriage entering the Sophora japonica forest.
And the people who followed were obviously going this way too.
All the guards gripped the handles of their knives tightly, and they were already fully prepared.
As long as these two people are suspected of doing something, they should be dealt with immediately!
Su Tang and Su Jinhang had no idea what kind of situation they were in.
Su Tang pointed at the locust tree and said in surprise: "There are so many locust trees, why don't the people in the capital come to eat?"
"Because food and clothing are plentiful now, everyone has no shortage of food." Su Jinhang said seriously.
Su Tang also once again understood the peace and prosperity of the country of Cangqin.
No wonder there is still time to hold cooking competitions.
It must be a very stable environment to take this aspect into consideration.
Su Tang picked up the special scissors.
The bamboo poles were tied to the handles of the scissors, and they were tied firmly, and then they went to cut the uncured Sophora japonica flowers.
This kind of Sophora japonica is the freshest and most tender, and the uncooked Sophora japonica is also the cleanest without insects and honey.
So it is the best time to eat Sophora japonica in mid-April.
So the guards who were in ambush watched the elder sister and younger brother struggling to cut the pagoda flower, and occasionally heard a few words, saying that the pagoda flower was delicious? ?
The guard who had just reported this incident to Master Hou as a danger blushed.
It turned out that there was an oolong!
Hearing this, Qi Tianyun knew that there were too many assassinations recently, making his subordinates feel like soldiers, so he said casually, "Two siblings? What do you look like?"
"My sister seems to be fifteen or sixteen years old, very slender, and my brother is six or seven years old. Oh, there is a scar on that woman's forehead." The guard hurriedly said, "Their scissors tied to the bamboo pole are used to pick locust trees. flowers."
Qi Tianyun and Shi Ding looked at him at the same time, and instantly understood who the two siblings were.
Shi Ding thought about Miss Su's craftsmanship, and also thought that Master Hou hadn't had a good meal for several days, so he couldn't help suggesting: "Master Hou, since we've met each other, why don't you go and have a look? I don't know what Miss Su is going to do. What's delicious."
The people under his command:? ?
What? ? ? You actually know each other?
Of course, he didn't say anything, just waiting for Master Hou to reply.
Shi Ding said again: "Master Hou, Miss Su and her younger brother are both small, and it's not safe to hold a pair of scissors. If we take us there, wouldn't it be faster and safer for us to climb directly to the tree to pick Sophora japonica? ?”
After saying this, Qi Tianyun looked at Shi Ding indifferently, and then nodded.
On the other hand, Su Tang was a little tired.
She took it for granted!
It is really useful to take a pair of scissors, but it is so tiring, my arms are sore from lifting, and I didn't get much off.
Qi Tianyun saw that she was so small but worked so hard for food, somehow it was funny.
"Do you need help?" Qi Tianyun asked.
Su Tang immediately turned her head and saw the handsome man at a glance!
I haven't seen him for several days, and I will meet him here.
Qi Tianyun nodded, and saw Shi Ding standing on the tree, obviously helping to pick Sophora japonica flowers.
Su Tang said, "Look for the ones that haven't bloomed yet, it's best to pick off the whole branch! It's so delicious!"
Sure enough, it was for food, so I came to pick Sophora japonica.
Qi Tianyun thought about the farce in the small restaurant yesterday, could it be that her grandmother came to ask for money again, so Su Tang wanted to pick flowers to live
Qi Tianyun said lightly: "I have a business, I wonder if you can do it."
Su Tang tilted her head to look at him with a puzzled expression.
Being looked at by Su Tang like this, Qi Tianyun was a little uncomfortable, pretending not to care and said: "Your food is very appetizing to me, I only need to cook three meals a day, I will send a servant to get it, and I will give you so much money a month .”
Qi Tianyun made a one-word comparison.
Su Tang was shocked: "One hundred taels? That's too much."
Qi Tianyun silently took back the one thousand taels and nodded: "Yes, one hundred taels."
! ! !
Is it so fun to be a private chef? ?
If it wasn't for the discomfort of going to his house to cook, then she would definitely agree!
Su Tang pressed down excitedly, and said seriously: "Yes, you can tell me if you have any taboos, and I won't do it for you in the future."
This matter is much more negotiable than imagined, Qi Tianyun thought for a while and said: "Don't eat fish, don't eat seafood, don't eat pork, don't eat beef and sheep, chicken depends on the situation, onion, ginger, garlic, leeks and coriander are not allowed."
Before he finished speaking, Su Tang interrupted directly!
Is this called taboo!
This obviously doesn't eat anything!
Su Tang said tactfully: "Actually, I put green onion, ginger and garlic in all the meals I cook, and there are also leeks in the buns. You don't dislike it either."
Qi Tianyun heard her speak softly, a little bit like complaining, but also wanted to act like a baby.
Thinking about it, this is indeed the case. If it is in the hands of others, then he will definitely not touch some food, but Su Tang has set a precedent.
Su Tang said: "Why don't you try it first? It would be the best if you can come to the store to eat, and you can also order food."
In order to keep this rich guest, she worked really hard!
But she felt that Junmei's customer was very picky. If he said delicious food, when she opened a restaurant in the future, everyone would definitely like it.
Qi Tianyun didn't know that he was already a picky label in Su Tang's heart, but he still nodded proudly.
"If I'm free, I'll go to your store, if not, I'll let the boy pick it up."
When Shi Ding and Su Jinhang came back with two flower baskets full of Sophora japonica, they had already reached an agreement!
This is simply generating income for small restaurants.
Su Tang decided to treat his boss well.
"My brother and I are going home to steam Sophora japonica flowers, do you want to come?" Su Tang realized that she still didn't know the name of the guest, "My name is Su Tang, sir, what is your surname?"
Seeing her clear eyes and smiling face, Qi Tianyun didn't feel how cute he was, so his eyes softened a lot: "My surname is Qi."
"Hello Mr. Qi, do you want to come?" Su Tang said, holding up the Sophora japonica flower.
Qi Tianyun nodded slightly: "I'll see you in an hour, is that okay?"
He still has to go to the Xicheng military camp, and military affairs must not be delayed.
Su Tang nodded, one hour is two hours.
It happens to be meal time, she will go back now, and she can also prepare the ingredients in advance, and when Mr. Qi arrives at the small restaurant, she can start steaming.
She is going to make two dishes today, one is steamed Sophora japonica, and the second is Sophora japonica egg pancake.
In terms of liking, steamed Sophora japonica is definitely more delicious.
First wash the Sophora japonica, put it in the yard to dry until there is no water drop, and then put it in the flour and mix well.
The fine grains used for flour are stirred until there are no particles, so that the taste will be better after steaming.
Don't be in a hurry to steam it in the pot after finishing these, but wait for Mr. Qi to come over.
The Sophora japonica flower soaked on the other side can also be used. Mix egg liquid in it, then add ground pepper powder and salt to taste.
When this kind of Sophora japonica egg liquid is rolled in hot oil, it becomes an egg cake. After frying, take it up and cut it into pieces. It is very fragrant.
Su Jinhang couldn't help but said, "I seem to smell the fragrance of flowers and eggs."
As soon as the words fell, someone knocked on the small restaurant a few times.
Su Jinhang quickly went to open the door. He followed his sister's order and left the door of the small restaurant wide open, so that passers-by could know that Mr. Qi was here for dinner.
Seeing Mr. Qi coming, Su Tang asked him to sit first, and immediately steamed the sophora japonica flowers mixed with flour on the boiling water.
On the other side, mince ginger and garlic.
While chopping, Su Tang suddenly thought, just now Mr. Qi said that he doesn't eat onion, ginger and garlic, but now he cooks two for one dish, and ginger and garlic are very important in the steamed Sophora japonica.
Su Tang felt guilty for a moment, and immediately felt that everyone would like the fragrant steamed Sophora japonica flower!
She is not guilty!
Su Tang moved very quickly with his hands, mixed the water into the minced garlic and ginger, added salt, and dripped the special sesame oil made by the Su family.
This is how the dipping sauce is ready!
Su Tang divides all the food into two portions, and the outside guests have some food, so she and Xiaohang can't eat too much.
At the same time, the steamed Sophora japonica has been prepared, and when I open the steamer, I feel very fragrant.
It has both the sweetness of flowers and the fragrance of plants, and the unique mellowness of flour is also perfectly combined.
The last remaining bit of Sophora japonica was directly stirred into flour by sugar, and made Sophora japonica soup with the leftover shrimp skins in the morning.
In this way, one cake, one dish, and one soup.
It's just perfect.
Qi Tianyun and Shi Ding have already smelled a special fragrance.
It's not right to say that the food is fragrant, because the smell is very refreshing, just like the smell they smelled in the locust forest, but it's not so sweet.
Su Tang brought the food, and introduced: "Sophora japonica egg pancake, steamed sophora japonica, and sophora japonica soup. When eating steamed sophora japonica, you must dip it in sauce, it is very delicious."
When Su Tang treated the patron's father, he was naturally very considerate, and his words were nice to hear.
Qi Tianyun couldn't help but look at her. Seeing that she introduced the food very seriously, it can be seen that she really likes it, so he couldn't help saying: "Yes, I will try it."
Forget it, I have eaten onions, ginger and garlic made with sugar before, and even the shallots mixed with tofu.
What's the matter.
But what Qi Tianyun didn't understand was that after Su Tang introduced him, he took his younger brother to the backyard for dinner and didn't sit with them at all.
Is it to avoid suspicion
Shi Ding couldn't bear it anymore, he wanted to try it!
smell good!
Shi Ding picked up the steamed Sophora japonica flower with his chopsticks and dipped it into the prepared sauce together with the flour, and ate it directly.
The fragrance and sweetness of the Sophora japonica flower combined with the mellowness of the flour, the slightly hot taste and the ginger and garlic juice that stimulates the mouth.
Finally, the smell of sesame oil is combined with the fragrance of Sophora japonica.
Seemingly such a simple food, the taste is too rich!
"It's delicious! Master Hou, didn't you say that you have ordered three meals here! I'll come over to eat too, okay! I'll pay for it too!" Shi Ding said, seeing Master Hou taste the first chopsticks, his expression It's almost the same as him, obviously he was amazed!
Wow, Master Hou can really eat the food made by Miss Su.
He wants to report this matter to the emperor!
I used to think that this little cook just happened to have a good appetite occasionally, but I didn't expect that there are cooks that Master Hou likes in this world!
If the emperor knows, he will be happy
