【Chapter 36】Scallion Oil Flatbread

Just after midnight, the Bai family's carriage arrived.

The one who came to pick them up was a manager from the Bai Mansion, whose surname was Ding, who was about the same age as his uncle.

The original plan was for uncle and Yu Wan and Yu Feng to go, but Xiao Tiedan suddenly woke up, hugged Yu Wan, and cried and wanted to go with her.

"Sister is going to do things, not to play." Besides, it's not like selling things in the market, and he comes back in one or two hours.

Little Tiedan hugged Yu Wan and refused to let go.

Yu Song walked out and coughed lightly, "Tiedan has never been to the capital yet, let him go. At worst, I can see him, right?"

Yu Wan and Yu Feng's eyes flew over, you want to go too, right?!

Xiao Tiedan didn't show off her charm, but instead made her uncle soft.

It is not a big deal to bring a child. In the countryside, they will almost always bring their own children with them, but it is different in the city.

Uncle looked at Manager Ding.

Manager Ding said generously: "It's okay, just someone can watch it."

So Yu Song and Xiao Tiedan successfully relied on the carriage.

Except for the uncle, it was the first time that the few people came to Beijing. At first, they were a little excited and wanted to see the scenery along the way, but even Lianhua Town had not passed, so they all fell asleep in the carriage.

When they were woken up by Manager Bai, they had already entered Bai's Mansion.

It was not dawn yet.

"Hurry up! Uncle Ding!"

As soon as Yu Wan got off the carriage, a young man with a clear appearance was hurriedly walking by in front of three vegetable dealers carrying shoulder poles.

The young man greeted Manager Ding, and Manager Ding nodded lightly and waved his hand to let him go.

The young man and the vegetable vendor entered the temporary bamboo shed in front of the right, where the ingredients and tools were mainly placed. A dozen steps further east was the kitchen.

The kitchen is large, with two yards in the front and back, and a well in the back yard. There are nine stoves in the kitchen, five around the wall and four in the middle, and eight of them are already there.

Manager Ding led Yu Wan and his group to the innermost stove and said slowly: "One stove has only one pot. If it is not enough, there will be a small stove in the bamboo shed. I will send you breakfast later, thank you for your hard work today."

The manager ignored the young man who had just said hello. It was probably Bai Tang who said hello that he was so polite to Yu Wan and his group.

Uncle thanked me.

Manager Ding gave his uncle a sign to get things: "Miss is in the flower hall, and there are many customers today, and she probably has no time to come to the kitchen. If you have anything to do, just let the servants from the bamboo shed find me."

Yu Song muttered, "Why do you want her to do it yourself for such a big Bai Mansion?"

Manager Ding smiled and said, "Miss is also full of filial piety."

Yu Song: "Oh."

Yu Song didn't know some things, but Yu Feng had heard of them.

Miss Bai is the legitimate daughter of Mr. Bai and Mrs. Xian. Mrs. Xian married Mrs. Bai and gave birth to such a daughter ten years ago. She never gave birth to her again. When Miss Bai was five years old, Mrs. Xian died.

A year later, Mr. Bai continued his strings and his step-wife gave birth to a fat boy for Mr. Bai.

It is rumored that Miss Bai has little relationship with her stepmother.

Miss Bai was unwilling to let the Bai family's property fall into the hands of her half-brother. If someone else had done this, it would be natural for her son to inherit his father's business, but she could not resist the low-class wife and was suppressed by her deceased wife everywhere.

"Miss Bai's grandfather has been an official in the court." As for what official he is, Yu Feng doesn't know.

Not long after Manager Ding left, a servant brought breakfast, which was steaming white flour steamed buns and millet porridge, served with pickles, salted eggs, and a plate of bacon and stir-fried cabbage.

Little Tiedan's saliva was thrilling.

The uncle peeled a salted egg for him.

Yu Wan divided half a bowl of millet porridge and half a steamed bun for him.

The little iron egg started to eat it with a feast.

After eating, I obediently moved a bench and sat in the yard, not noisy or quarrel, and I was so obedient.

Yu Song was still looking at him firmly at first. After watching for a while, Xiao Tiedan could sit even harder than him. He coughed lightly and turned around to help his family.

Today, there are chefs from Bai Mansion and Bai Yulou. Both sides are from Bai family, but Yu Wan's family was airborne.

"I heard that the lady went to the countryside to invite her."

"Miss is such a mess. How can the master use the country chef for his birthday party?"

Everyone shook their heads, as if they didn't believe that a few rural people could make any delicious dishes.

Yu Feng and Yu Wan went to the bamboo shed to get the ingredients, including dozens of live ducks.

The duck is going to be killed.

This kind of work used to be Yu Feng, but since Yu Wan came, Yu Feng's knife skills have been despised.

Yu Wan took the duck to the backyard.

Then, she started bleeding from one duck.

The sky is getting brighter.

Under the dim morning light, the duck feathers were blown all over the floor by the cold wind, and the girl was carrying a knife and sweating profusely.

On the other side of Yan’s mansion, Yan Ruyu didn’t get up until dawn.

The room was warm, and twelve maids came in one after another, holding exquisite toiletries and eight sets of heads, faces and dresses for her to choose from.

Today is her big day. She dressed up carefully for a long time and picked a lake blue tunic long skirt, a plain white rabbit fur pipa short jacket, and a pair of fine silver silk mutton fat jade earrings fell on her earlobes as delicate as white jade.

The girl is elegant, charming, and beautiful.

As soon as Mrs. Yan entered the house, she saw her daughter, who was like a fairy walking down from a mural. She was amazed.

She excitedly held her daughter's hand: "My son, Young Master Yan will never see any other woman in this life!"

Today is also Yu Wan's big day.

The opportunity is rare. She wants to help her uncle prepare the dishes and make her reputation. In the future, she will never have to worry about having no money to eat or treat her illness.

All the ducks were cleaned, and she was covered in blood, which was a bit embarrassed, but she didn't care about these things and hurried to cut water radish and sweet potato mash.

In addition to the taste, a delicate dish is also very important to serve.

She cut it very well, with white petals, purple lace, yellow stamens, and water droplets on the petals, layered and beautiful, unlike being piled up with ingredients, but like ones just picked from a tree.

"Sister."

Halfway through, Xiao Tiedan walked over with grievance.

Yu Wan stopped the knife in her hand: "What's wrong? Are you hungry?"

Little Tiedan nodded.

Recently, my appetite has increased and I always get hungry in a short while.

It’s not time to eat, but the meat in the pot is not cooked thoroughly.

Fortunately, Yu Wan was prepared: "I brought scallion pancakes and found a stove to heat it up for you."

Yu Wan went to the bamboo shed to get a small stove, found a quiet corner in the backyard, simmered the stove, put a small pot on it, poured a spoonful of oil, and put three large and round scallion oil pancakes in it. The aroma of fried scallion rose up.

Xiao Tiedan consciously moved a small stool.

After the scallion oil pancake was heated, Yu Wan put out the open flame and left only a trace of charcoal to continue baking the bottom of the kettle.

"Sister, go and do it, I'll eat it myself!" Xiao Tiedan said sensiblely.

"Okay." Yu Wan went to do things.

Little iron egg stayed for the cake.

This is a mutton carrot-filled scallion oil pancake, made by Yu Wan himself. It smells delicious, but it tastes...

"I am a good brother who is not picky about food!" Xiao Tiedan said while patting her breasts.
