NOVEL NEXT Chapter 152 Carrot Balls
In their new home in Lihua Town, everyone turned off the lights and was about to go to sleep. Mao Xi was attracted by the smell of sausages.
Is Brother Mu going to feed sausages to his native dogs again?
With doubts, Mao Xi put on her clothes and came to the yard. Pi Dan was really chewing on the sausage.
Mao Xi pulled half of the sausage out of its mouth to prevent it from eating any more.
She patted Pi Dan on the head: "I'll give you sausages to eat, so you won't look after the house?"
Mao Xi walked around the yard and saw no one. When she returned to the room, she saw a silver hairpin with three plum blossoms on the head.
There is no doubt that this should be given by Brother Mu, so Ma Xi silently accepted the hairpin.
In the early morning, after Lou Lan'er got up, she ran over and knocked fiercely on the door of Shu Xi's room.
"Ah Shu, get up quickly and see if there is anything missing in your room?"
Mao Xi rubbed her eyes. She had just woken up: "What's wrong? Sister Lan'er."
Lou Laner handed over a piece of black cloth: "Look, what I saw on the wall above the kennel this morning must have been a thief coming in and out of the yard, and the clothes were accidentally torn."
Mao Xi took the cloth, looked at it, and blurted out: "Brother Mu must be drunk. He can even pull off his clothes when he climbs over the wall."
Suddenly realizing that he had said the wrong thing, Ma Xi quickly explained: "I woke up last night before going to bed because of the aroma of meat. I saw Pi Dan eating meat sausage. Maybe Brother Mu climbed over the wall to feed the dog after being drunk, so he didn't want to wake him up. Let’s.”
Lou Lan'er exclaimed: "You said he got drunk and climbed over the wall last night? His assassin skills have deteriorated."
Even so, Lou Lan'er still climbed over to the wall to check: "Ah Shu, I'll add some mud and put some broken pottery pieces on the wall later to see if Brother Mu will come back to climb over the wall in the future, hahaha!"
Mao Xi also felt that it was inappropriate for Brother Mu to come over the wall without saying hello several times.
Just that plum blossom silver hairpin, was it a gift from him? It's better to ask in person.
After lunch at noon, Mu Zhiyuan was playing with the preserved egg outside the shop. Mao Xi came forward and took out half of the sausage left by the preserved egg: "Brother Mu, did you feed the preserved sausage to the preserved egg again last night?"
Mu Zhiyuan did not answer, but patted Pi Dan's nose.
Mao Xi continued to ask: "This preserved egg cannot eat sausage often. The dog's stomach will be damaged if it eats too much sausage."
"Really? I think it likes to eat."
Realizing that he had been exposed, Mu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I see that you often feed him rice, so I wanted to get some meat for the preserved eggs."
Mao Xi took out the piece of clothing crisp and gave it to Mu Zhiyuan: "Brother Mu, don't climb over the wall when you are drunk in the future. This is the corner of your clothes that you broke and left on the wall yesterday."
Mu Zhiyuan took a closer look and saw that it was indeed true, so he quickly put it away.
Mao Xi then asked him: "Is that plum blossom silver hairpin by the window sill a gift from you?"
"Do you like it? I saw you didn't even wear the hosta before."
The hosta is so precious, how dare Mao Xi wear it while working in the kitchen!
She thought the silver hairpin was okay, but it was a big hairpin. She tried wearing it in the morning and was a little uncomfortable with it.
Mao Xi made an excuse and said, "Thank you, Brother Mu, for the gift. The plum blossom hairpin is a bit heavy. I'm afraid it won't work well. I'll wear it out for fun again if I have the opportunity."
After Mao Xi finished speaking, he was ready to go into the house to rest.
Mu Zhiyuan stopped her and said, "Tomorrow is Qingming Festival. Let's go to the countryside together?"
Ma Xi nodded: "Of course, we have to take Xiaodouzi, Ajiao and the others to fly the kite, right?"
"Okay, I'll come find you then."
In fact, Mu Zhiyuan didn't want to bring two more small light bulbs.
When Shu Xi returned to the rest room of Liu Xiang Snacks, Lou Lan'er asked, "Ah Shu, are you sure? Brother Mu climbed over the wall last night, right?"
Mao Xi whispered: "Yes, the corner of his clothes has been returned to him."
Lou Lan'er chuckled and said, "If anything happens, he can't come to you during the day. He has to be drunk and come to feed the dog in the middle of the night."
Lou Lan'er asked knowingly that Mu Zhiyuan had been here several times. In fact, Lou Lan'er knew about it, but she didn't expect that he actually left the hem of his clothes last night, which was not good for passers-by to see.
"It's okay, Ah Shu. Anyway, I've added some broken pottery pieces to the wall."
Mao Xi asked Lou Lan'er to take a lunch break early: "Take a rest quickly, I'll be busy later."
In the afternoon, Mao Xi took some radishes from the kitchen and asked Dajiang to shred them first.
Ojiang's knife skills are really good, the slices are thin, the wires are also very fine, the speed is high, and the cuts are even.
A large pot of radishes had been cut, and Mao Xi put the radishes in water and boiled them to remove the astringent taste.
A plate of shredded radish, as cute as white jade buds in the pot, with some rock sugar in the water.
Xiao Qing had never seen shredded radish blanched in rock sugar water before, and asked curiously: "Shopkeeper Ah Shu, are you going to make sweet radish soup?"
Mao Xi smiled and shook his head: "No, this rock sugar water is used to cook out the astringency of the shredded radish. I will use the shredded radish to make vegetarian meatballs later."
"Can I drink the blanched radish soup?"
"Okay, the radish flavor is also in the sugar water. If you don't believe me, try it."
Xiaoqing was doubtful, so she made a small bowl of radish rock sugar water and drank it: "Well, this water tastes good too."
After taking out the shredded radish, run it through cold water. Mao Xi puts the shredded radish into gauze and squeezes out the water with his hands.
After a large pot of shredded radish was filled with water, only a small plate was left.
Mao Xi brought the shredded radish to Xiaoqing: "Smell it, is there still the astringency of radish?"
Xiao Qing came closer and smelled it: "Yeah! It really doesn't have the harsh smell of radish anymore."
Then, Mao Xi put the shrimps into hot water and blanch them for a minute, then took them out and squeezed them dry.
Heat the oil in the pan until it is 40% hot, add the dried shrimps and fry until they change color, then take them out.
The shrimps are baptized by the hot oil, and the fragrance hits your face, and you instantly feel the smell of the sea.
Mix the radish and fried shrimp, add a small amount of salt, mustard, and scallion oil, and mix well with your hands.
Mustard Moshi bought it in the virtual mall and it cost her 100 Wen.
Mao Xi grabbed some radishes and put them in his mouth. They tasted delicious.
She grabbed some more and gave them to Xiaoqing and asked, "How does it taste?"
"I think it tastes good when eaten like this."
Mao Xi shook his head: "Not yet."
After speaking, she poured some raw starch into the shredded radish and shaped it into a ball with her hands.
The greedy little cat Ajiao followed the scent and came running again.
"Sister, sister, are you making balls?"
When Ajiao was in the countryside, he liked to play with Xiaodou and make mud balls.
She saw Mao Xi and Xiao Qing making carrot balls, rolling up their sleeves and stretching out their little hands.
Before Ajiao's little paws touched the shredded radish, Xiaoqing and Mao Xi had already kneaded a whole plate of radish balls.
After the steamer is steamed, put it in the pot and start steaming, and it will be ready in half an hour.
Mao Xi brought out the steamed radish balls. Each of them was translucent, as clear as white jade.
The meatballs are also dotted with orange-red shrimps, which are very cute.
The radish balls are steamed, so they don't get irritating at all, so the dishes in the restaurant can be more balanced.
