Zhong Yong rushed to the table and picked up a piece of instant noodles. He was so happy that the corners of his mouth reached his ears.
“There’s nothing that Master doesn’t know.”
Zhang Jinglin was much more reserved. He walked over, picked up a small piece of instant noodles, and chewed it gently in his mouth. His eyes instantly lit up. This was delicious. It was crispy and much more delicious than the snacks he had eaten.
“Young Madam said that the noodles can still be cooked and eaten. You can just put these dried ingredients in when you cook them.”
The official who delivered the food took out a bag of dried ingredients. It looked like dried scallions, carrots, and some powder.
“Big brother, cook it and try it.”
Zhong Yong couldn’t wait to call out to Xiao Zeyu. His mouth was stuffed full of instant noodles. As soon as he spoke, he immediately covered it with his hand. Such delicious food couldn’t be wasted.
“Alright, cook it, and let’s try it.”
Xiao Zeyu smiled as he agreed. He was also curious about the taste of such delicious dried food boiled in water. Especially with the dried ingredients prepared by Su Qing, it should be delicious, right?
Although Zhang Jinglin did not say anything, his eyes were filled with desire. His sister-in-law was terrific. She could bring peace to the world with her martial arts. She was also a master chef. She could cure illnesses, kill people, and make weapons. She brewed good wine, made rouge powder that was in short supply and could even embroider double-sided embroidery and grow delicious vegetables. He remembered that every time Luan Hong talked about her, her eyes were filled with admiration.
Not to mention Luan Hong, all the generals of the Xiao Family Army worshipped the young Madam. Even the gods couldn’t be so omnipotent.
Xiao Zeyu didn’t need anyone else to cook the noodles. He went to the kitchen to cook the noodles himself. In the end, he saw the little official who had delivered the food put a piece of flatbread into a big bowl. He sprinkled some dry ingredients, poured hot water, and covered it with a lid.
“What are you doing?”
Xiao Zeyu asked him unhappily, feeling that he was ruining the food that Qing’er had sent over.
“The young Madam taught this. When we are marching, we don’t have time to cook noodles, so we can just soak them in hot water for a while.”
The minor official who delivered the food was full of pride. On the way here, he had eaten several times. The soup and water were even more delicious than the noodles at home.
“Can it be cooked with water?”
Xiao Zeyu’s eyes were filled with disbelief. He knew his wife was godly, but she couldn’t be this godly, right?
“Of course, these noodles are all cooked. You can eat them after soaking them.”
The food delivery officer explained to Xiao Zeyu, with pride, to be able to teach the young Master.
The food delivery officer went to show off his skills again. He cracked an egg into Xiao Zeyu’s noodles. The egg white quickly solidified into a beautiful poached egg in the water. This made them drool even more.
“Do I have to check to 200 for this too?”
Xiao Zeyu asked the food delivery officer. Regular noodles only needed boiling water to be eaten, but he was unsure about this.
“When the noodles turn this color, you can eat them.”
The grain delivery officer picked up the noodles with his chopsticks and took a look. The noodles had turned into a faint yellow color, sparkling and translucent. It was ready to eat.
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s eat.”
Xiao Zeyu turned around and waved at Zhang Jinglin and Zhong Yong. This time, he wouldn’t eat alone. He wanted everyone to have a taste of Qing’er’s good cooking.
The cooked noodles were chewy, and the soup tasted better with poached eggs.
The kitchen was filled with the sound of water splashing. The three men had finished the entire pot of noodles and the soup.
“This is too delicious. Why is Master so good at cooking?”
Zhong Yong wiped his mouth, his eyes full of admiration. The thing he missed the most when he left home was his Master’s craftsmanship.
“That’s right. Young Madam’s cooking is amazing.”
Zhang Jinglin burped and was full of praise. If Luan Hong could learn the Young Master’s wife’s cooking, he would be in luck.
“Did Madam give the cooking method of the noodles?”
Xiao Zeyu wanted to distribute instant noodles to the entire army, but Su Qing only brought one bag, which was insufficient. He was also reluctant to share it with everyone, so he wanted the gang leader to make it himself.
“Madam didn’t send it. She said that she needed this to earn money.”
The grain delivery official shook his head. Madam had no intention of contributing such a precious thing.
Xiao Zeyu shook his head in amusement. Qing’er had even placed her job of keeping the secret on his head.
However, the noodles could earn a lot of money. It was very convenient and delicious. No wonder Qing’er named it instant noodles.
Xiao Zeyu only remembered that he hadn’t eaten the cucumbers that Madam had made after he finished eating. Zhong Yong also remembered and cried at Xiao Zeyu unhappily,
“Big Brother, you’re not being nice. Why didn’t you take out the cucumbers that Master made?”
Xiao Zeyu had no choice but to take out a bowl of cucumbers. Everyone gathered around to taste the cucumbers. This was too delicious.. It was a perfect match with the dried vegetables!
