Baozi Xishi's Struggle

Chapter 271 Mr. Yang's meal order

Yang Tao just asked with the idea of ​​giving it a try, but he didn't expect that Miss Shen would actually do it, so he hurriedly thanked her.

He saw that there were only Zheng Sanniang and Shen Yu in the shop, so he asked, "Miss Shen, there are only two of you in the shop, do you want me to help?"

Shen Yu and Zheng Sanniang both said no, and after asking how many dumplings they wanted in total, Shen Yu went to the backyard.

Seeing that he was not needed and was sitting in the restaurant with Zheng Sanniang still accompanying him, Yang Tao simply stood up and said that he wanted to go out for a walk and come back later to get the prepared dumplings.

There is no need to leaven the dough for making dumplings. Shen Yu takes a small basin of warm water to knead the dough. After kneading, knead it until it is smooth and cover it with a wet cloth to let it rise.

Because we have tofu, bamboo shoots, black fungus, mushrooms and rapeseed at home, and because they are used every day, the rapeseed is washed clean and the bamboo shoots and black fungus are soaked.

Place a soup pot on the stove, pour in boiling water, add a small spoonful of salt, blanch the rapeseed, bamboo shoots and fungus in turn and drain.

Because he was going to fry the dumplings with vegetable oil later, Shen Yu simply lit the small stove, put on the wok, added a small amount of vegetable oil to the wok, cut the tofu into small cubes and fried until golden brown, then served it in a small bowl.

Squeeze the rapeseed dry and chop it into small pieces. Dice the bamboo shoots and fungus and pour them into a small bowl. Add appropriate amount of vegetable oil, mix them first, add a little pepper powder to enhance the flavor, and add salt when wrapping them later.

After preparing the filling, Shen Yu began to roll out the dough and make dumplings.

She worked very quickly. In just two cups of tea, the small, thin-skinned, vegetarian-filled crescent-shaped dumplings were ready.

After wrapping the dumplings, Shen Yu went to the kitchen next door to cook the mushroom soup.

Since it was a vegetarian soup, Shen Yu directly put the soaked and washed mushroom stems into the pot, added an appropriate amount of water and began to boil. He cut the mushrooms into thick slices and washed some green broad beans for later use.

Soup was cooking in the kitchen next door, while Shen Yu started frying vegetarian dumplings on a small stove.

The fillings in the dumplings are all cooked, just fry the dumpling skin until golden and crispy, then it's ready to be served.

When all the dumplings are fried and drained, the mushroom soup is also cooked until it is fragrant, and the unique fresh and fragrant aroma of mushrooms has filled the kitchen.

As soon as Shen Yu lifted the lid of the pot, he heard the back door open. It turned out that Li and the others had returned.

Dun Dun pulled the small cart, Yu Cheng pushed the cart beside it, Li, Jiang and Yu Tao followed behind, and a group of people rushed into the yard.

Yu Cheng was probably thirsty from pushing the cart, so he put the cart down and ran to the kitchen to get some water. As soon as he entered the room, he said, "It smells so good, big sister, what are you cooking?"

Shen Yu heard this from the kitchen next door, and hurriedly said to Yu Cheng, "Your Mr. Yang came over today and ordered a dish of mushroom dumplings. You and Dun Dun should go check. Is he in the shop in front now?"

When Yucheng heard that Mr. Yang was coming, he felt happy and nervous. He stopped drinking water and ran to the store with Dundun.

Jiang came in and poured water for everyone. She asked if there were many customers after Shen Yu and the others left, and if there were any vegetables that needed to be washed and cut so that she could help.

Shen Yu smiled and said, "I'm almost done here. I've been busy in the kitchen right now. I don't know if there are many customers here. You're back just in time. It's almost time for lunch."

After drinking some water, Li and her friends went to the shop in front to greet customers.

Shen Yu took out the mushroom stems, put in the mushroom slices and green broad beans, added a proper amount of salt, and then poured in a little sesame oil and chopped green onions when removing from the heat.

After finishing all this, Shen Yu went to the shop in front to see if Mr. Yang was coming.

When I entered the room, I saw Li was talking to Mr. Yang. Yucheng and Dundun were standing beside her obediently, with happy faces.

Shen Yu walked over and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, the mushroom dumplings are ready. Do you want to go to Mr. Yang's house now?"

Yang Tao nodded quickly, and Shen Yu smiled and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will pack it for you right away."

Li nudged Yucheng and Dundun and said, "You two silly boys, why don't you follow me and get it? Do you want the master to take it himself?"

Shen Yu thought for a moment and asked again, "Mr. Yang, would you like me to pack you some more meat skewers and lasagna? Old Man Yang also likes these two. He has come to buy them several times and praised the meat patties for being delicious."

Yang Tao thought for a moment and said, "I want some of these two things, and also pack me some sweet bean cakes and red bean paste buns. My mother and aunt love sweet cakes."

Shen Yu agreed and took Yu Cheng and Dun Dun back to the backyard.

I took out the lunch box and looked at the soup bowl I was going to use for the soup. I felt it was not deep enough and would easily spill when I carried it on the road.

Shen Yu stood in front of the cupboard where the kitchen utensils were placed and took a look. Thinking that the food boxes and tableware would have to be returned anyway, he directly took out the copper soup pot that had not been used since he bought it.

The copper soup pot is relatively deep, which is perfect for holding soup. If you want to reheat it later, it is also convenient and you don’t have to change the pot.

Shen Yu rinsed the clean soup pot with hot water, then poured the fragrant mushroom soup into the pot.

Put chopped green onions in a small bowl, pour some sesame oil into the pot, carefully cover the soup pot, wrap the pot handles with a cloth, and put the soup pot in the food box.

The fried dumplings were served in a large soup bowl, and a small bowl of chopped green onions was placed on top of the food box.

Shen Yu saw Yucheng and Dundun following nearby and wanted to take the food over.

Shen Yu picked up the lunch box with his own hands and felt that it was quite heavy. He was worried that the soup inside would spill and burn them, so he said, "Let me take it. There is hot soup underneath, and it is very hot."

Shen Yu carefully carried the food box in both hands and returned to the shop. Li also packed the meat skewers, cakes and pastries that Mr. Yang ordered.

Shen Yu smiled and said, "Mr. Yang, the mushroom soup is already cooked in a copper soup pot. When you get home, you can heat it directly on the charcoal stove until it boils, then pour in the fried vegetarian dumplings and sprinkle some chopped green onions."

Shen Yu pointed at the food box and said, "The pot is quite deep, but you should be careful when you take it on the road. Don't spill the mushroom soup to avoid getting burned."

Yang Tao agreed and took out his purse. Li took charge and collected a total of two hundred coins.

Yang Tao knew that the two full boxes of food must cost more than two hundred coins, but he knew in his heart that no matter how much more he offered, the other party would not accept it. So he simply thanked him generously and picked up the two boxes to leave.

Mrs. Li said hurriedly, "Mr. Yang's house is not far away. Yucheng has been there many times. Let Yucheng and Dundun carry the food box for Mr. Yang and send it over together."

"When you have used up the food boxes and utensils, you don't have to send them back. I'll tell Zhou Dalang tomorrow and he can pick them up on his way to work."

Yang Tao felt that it was unnecessary. He usually insisted on climbing mountains and running, so he did not feel the two lunch boxes were heavy.

Shen Yu said, "Sir, let Yucheng and the others carry the food box containing the skewers. You carry one in each hand. It's not far, but the soup won't be stable."
