Chapter 53：

Nine days later, the test was over. Everyone was looking forward to the list. Ruan Sanniang was chased and killed. The popularity of Ruan Sanniang fell sharply. Because there was no evidence on both sides, there was still a concubine Mu on the head of Mu family. The bad reputation gets worse.

In addition to these two things, there is one more thing worth mentioning. The fried noodles Wen Tingzhou soaked in the Kaosya were too fragrant. After the first test, the fried noodles became famous.

Wen Tingzhou took the opportunity to push the dry fried noodles out. After he learned about the dry fried noodles from Ruan Xi, he obtained Ruan Xi’s consent and opened a small shop in the name of Ruan Xi, specializing in selling dry fried noodles. The price of herbal tea is not high, and ordinary people can afford it. It is sold exclusively to those who take the exam.

This small shop was full of customers as soon as it opened. It was very popular and spread throughout the capital in just one day.

In the next six days of the exam, the test room was filled with a strong fragrance, which made people appetite.

The chief examiner and the invigilators twitched their mouths, and there was a sense of a serious examination room suddenly becoming a restaurant.

"Miss, the third lady opened a fast food shop that specializes in instant noodles opposite our shop, which is very similar to our dry fried noodles, except that there are two more things called seasoning buns and vegetable buns."

As soon as Suyu heard the news, she ran to report it anxiously.

Ruan Xi had a calm expression, and he did not hurriedly copy a passage before putting down his brush.

"Suyu, don't pay attention to this matter. I have no plans to sell dry fried noodles all the time. The shop is opened to let the exam candidates eat hot food."

"But the third lady is too much. The capital is so big. It's not good to drive it. It happens to be opposite to our shop. People with a discerning eye can see the third lady's malice, and there are bad rumors outside."

Suyu held the injustice for the young lady, and she just couldn't swallow this breath.

Ruan Xi moved to sit on the couch and said lightly.

"Suyu, calm down, the third sister, the more you quarrel with her, the happier she will be, because there are so many people who pay attention to her being pursued and killed. If I fight with her, wouldn't it be seen by outsiders? A joke, I have another plan for the shop."

As soon as Ruan Sanniang's instant noodles came out, the hostess Mu Qingci would surely guess the identity of Ruan Sanniang's passing girl.

As for the shop, Ruan Xi is going to sell braised duck. In fact, this dynasty also has a variety of braised flavors, but it is very difficult to make delicious. Ruan Xi's cooking skills are average, but she makes braised duck with secret marinade, which is beautiful in color and fragrance. The meat is tender and sweet, and the marinade is thick and mellow.

Suyu's face instantly turned pale when she heard the young lady's words. She almost didn't start to sweat, but her heart became increasingly angry with the third lady.

"Miss, if you don't sell dry fried noodles, what do you sell? I'm most afraid that the third lady will sell the same thing with us."

Ruan Xi raised his lips: "Selling braised ducks."

Suyu: "..."

"Miss, as far as the maidservant knows, there are already several very famous restaurants in Beijing selling lo-mei, including the famous dish of braised duck."

Suyu was very worried. In her opinion, the lady who opened a shop selling braised duck would be better off selling dried fried noodles. The lomei in those large restaurants is the secret recipe of the royal kitchen of the imperial palace, which has a unique flavor.

One of the big restaurants is still owned by the Wen family.

Ruan Xi took a sip of the tea and said with a smile, "Suyu, don't worry, I also have the secret recipe for lo-wei."

When I went to the main courtyard this morning, Zhang's family did not know what was going on, and asked her to choose a shop to practice handwork. It happened that Wen Tingzhou gave her a shop, and Ruan Xi did not choose the property of Bofu, and planned to run his own small shop. , Train a few cooks, specialize in braised duck.

Suyu: "..." Miss said so, she was even less confident.

Ruan Xidang didn't see Suyu's expression. She took an hour a day to learn to cook soup with Mama Yang. After more than ten days, the soup still had the original taste, and the performance was staggering.

Mother Yang has given up and started teaching her to cook other side dishes, as long as she learns it.

Ruan Xi decided to show her specialty-braised duck.

Suyu: "..."

In the small kitchen, two cooks prepared as many as twenty kinds of marinade materials that Ruan Xi needed.

Ruan Xi’s secret stewed duck process is complicated and many, especially patience is required, and marinade is the key.

Here is one of her secrets. She once found a piece of cloth that does not invade water or fire on the interlayer of a strange wooden box. There is only a secret recipe for braised duck on the cloth. The production process is very detailed, mainly the preparation of the marinade, and the most important thing is The stewed duck made according to this stewed duck secret recipe is not harmful to the body and has a nourishing effect. It is suitable for all ages.

Ruan Xi has made a marinade several times according to the steps on the cloth, but the materials for the marinade are very expensive. Ruan Xi only makes a braised duck to relieve gluttons.

Ruan Xi is full of motivation when he thinks that he can eat braised duck as much as he wants in the future.

"Miss, do you really want to make your own marinade?" When it comes to confidentiality, there are only two masters and servants, Ruan Xi and Suyu, in the small kitchen, and Suyu temporarily acts as a fire girl.

Suyu once saw a chef making braised duck in a large kitchen, and she was even more unconfident when she saw the steps of the lady making braised duck.

In fact, the lady can go to the big kitchen to get some thick marinade.

"Ok."

Ruan Xi has made the marinade several times according to the steps on the cloth. The amount of material and the order of placement have been familiar for a long time. She is a smart person, and the weight of the material is very precise, but in Suyu's opinion, it is very random and Child's play.

In the process of making the marinade, the fragrance constantly floated out of the small kitchen. As time went by, the huge sincerity house was filled with a strong marinade fragrance.

"Miss, isn't the marinade ready yet?"

Suyu gazed at the big pot eagerly while burning the fire, swallowing hard.

That bit of mistrust just disappeared long ago.

"hold on."

Ruan Xi was actually very uncomfortable with the scent of the marinade, but she supported it with great perseverance, her eyes gleaming, and the surprise in her eyes was about to overflow. She had cooked the marinade several times, but none So fragrant and greedy this time.

Is it because the ancient ingredients are naturally pollution-free?

Ruan Xi secretly guessed.

Not far from the door of the small kitchen, many people gathered at some point.

The head of the head was the old lady of Ning Shoutang. The Buddha beads in her hand had already stopped turning, and her nose moved unconsciously.

Zhang Clan, Ruan Sanniang, Xiaopangdun Ruan Yumin, Aunt Lin and others all came.

Ruan Sanniang's pair wanted to pierce the door of the small kitchen. She didn't expect the fourth sister to have such a secret recipe for marinade.

I really don't know where the four sisters got the secret marinade recipe.

Obviously never appeared in the previous life.

Ruan Sanniang was almost mad at the scent, and swallowed hard.

In the small kitchen, Ruan Xi finally showed a smile.

"Okay, the marinade is ready, and the remaining braised duck steps don't need to be kept secret, Suyu, you go out and ask someone to slaughter 20 ducks. I want to show my skills today."

Suyu quickly opened the door of the small kitchen and was startled when she saw the old lady waiting outside.

"Suyu, did Miss Fourth make the marinade?"

Seeing that it was the old lady's confidant's mother who asked, Suyu nodded her head quickly: "Yes, the young lady ordered the servants and maids to let them kill twenty ducks."

"Fifty." The old lady knocked on the cane and gave the final word.

Suyu had no choice but to go into the small kitchen and tell the lady that Ruan Xi was shocked when he learned that the old lady and others were attracted by the scent of the marinade she made, and calmly said after recovering.

"Fifty is fifty. Call someone from the big kitchen to help."

There were people in the kitchen who were specially responsible for slaughtering poultry. Fifty fat ducks that were slaughtered and plucked were quickly sent over, along with several kitchen chefs and their helpers.

These chefs had long been excited by the scent of the marinade, and as soon as they came over, they started braising duck according to Ruan Xi's instructions.

Ruan Xi personally marinated nine light ducks. She dried the water on the light ducks and wiped the whole duck with the secret sauce. Then the whole light ducks were put into a large pot of boiling brine, and the fire boiled. Cook over a slow heat, turning over several times during the period to make it delicious.

The whole Sincerity Bo’s Mansion is full of the scent of braised ducks, which is so greedy that the people are so greedy that it makes all the subordinates absent-minded.

Half an hour later, the braised duck was finished. After it was left to cool, the chef with excellent knife skills cut it into neat thick slices and poured it on Ruan Xi's secret marinade.

Looking at the ruddy, bright and scented braised duck in front of him, Ruan Xi took a deep breath, picked up a piece of braised duck meat with his chopsticks, and put it in his mouth. He only bit, and all the fresh fragrance exploded on the tip of his tongue. An indescribable delicacy surged from the tip of his tongue to his whole body, and Ruan Xi's whole body fell. After eating up the whole piece of tender and plump braised duck, he recovered from the ultimate delicacy.

"Suyu, try one too."

Ruan Xi saw Suyu swallowing hard, and said with a smile, Suyu was ecstatic, and quickly thanked the lady for a bit, and quickly picked up a piece of braised duck and ate it.

"Oh my God, it's so fragrant, so tender, so crisp, so delicious!"

After Suyu finished eating, he gazed at the braised duck on the plate, wishing to eat up the whole plate of braised duck.

"Miss, can the slave and maid have another piece?"

Ruan Xi had a sense of accomplishment when he saw this. He nodded generously and glanced at the chefs in the small kitchen sharing a braised duck. Ruan Xi thought of Wen Tingzhou and quickly ordered Suyu.

"Suyu, go and bring some food boxes over. I want to send my braised duck to Wen's house."

How can you not share the delicious delicacy with Brother Ting Chau?

The old ladies eat braised duck made by the chef. It is not that they can't believe in Ruan Xi's craftsmanship, but that the chef is more experienced.

The stewed marinade is fragrant and unique, which does not mean that the Ruanxi stewed duck is tender and delicious.

So none of them eat the braised duck made by Ruan Xi himself.

Ruan Xi was so happy too.

"Yes, miss." Suyu ate a piece of braised duck again, reluctantly looking away, quickly brought four large food boxes, and filled six braised ducks and two jars of marinade according to the lady's order. .

After refreshing, Ruan Xi wrote a letter and sent someone to send the stewed duck in the sealed food box to Wen's house.

On this day, Uncle Sincere who came back from the government office ate the braised duck made with Ruanxi’s secret marinade. He was full of praise and was shocked by the heavens. He began to think about the secret marinade recipe in the hands of Ruanxi.

The old lady Zhang Clan Sanniang Ruan Sanniang who had the same idea as Bo Chengyi.

Mama Lin and Mama Yang had the honor to taste the stewed duck made by Ruan Xi, and they were all conquered by the deliciousness of the stewed duck.

"Miss, I heard Suyu say that you plan to open a braised duck restaurant?" Mama Lin asked suddenly.

Ruan Xi nodded and smiled bitterly: "Yes, that shop is in the bustling area of ​​the capital. It is too wasteful to sell dry fried noodles. I plan to use it to sell braised duck, but now it seems that it won't be possible."

"Miss, you are right to think so, your marinade secret recipe is too good and easy to be worried about." Mother Yang said solemnly.

She thought of the Yang family's secret recipe for health.

The difference is that behind the Fourth Miss, there is the Wen family and Mrs. Wen as the backer.

Ruan Xi sighed in her heart. This was something she had never expected. The braised duck made by her in modern times is better than the braised duck made by the chef of the most famous restaurant here. It should not be as good as the braised duck. The braised duck made by the imperial kitchen in the palace, who knows that Mama Yang and Mama Lin told her that the braised duck made by the imperial kitchen in the palace is not as good as hers.

The matter is big.

At this time, Wen Tingzhou was in the main courtyard enjoying the braised duck from Ruan Xi with Mrs. Wen Shangshu.

The news that Ruan Xi was making braised duck had long been informed to Wen Tingzhou by Mama Lin. Wen Tingzhou was surprised when she saw Ms. Lin's letter. He didn't expect Ruan Ruan to have the secret marinade recipe in his hands, and the stewed fragrant fragrance filled the house.

Wen Tingzhou has been waiting for Ruanxi's delicious braised duck.

Ruan Xi did not disappoint him.

Wen Tingzhou's eyes were full of smiles.

After reading Ruan Ruan's letter, Wen Tingzhou left four of the six braised ducks that he sent, one to Anguo Gongfu and one to Mrs. Wen.

"The braised duck made by Ruan Yatou is more delicious than that made by the Imperial Kitchen in the palace. After eating, she feels refreshed physically and mentally. It seems that the secret recipe for the marinade in her hand is not simple." After eating out the four braised ducks, Wen Shang still squinted his eyes. The eyes are clear.

"Yeah, I have never eaten such a delicious braised duck, if only one can be eaten every day." Madam Wen agreed with her.

How could Wen Tingzhou fail to hear his father's intentions? He curled his lips slightly: "Father, this is the secret recipe that Ruan Ruan got by chance. It does not belong to the Ruan family. She told me in the letter that this marinade will be used in the future. Come as a family heirloom to pass on to her descendants."

There was a hint of toughness in the tone.

Wen Shangshu took a deep look at his eldest son, and suddenly laughed: "It's just a secret recipe for eating food, not a big deal, Tingzhou, if you think too much, how can I steal the secret recipe from my future daughter-in-law? You should worry. It is sincere."

Wen Tingzhou smiled faintly: "Father rest assured, I won't let anyone take Ruan Ruan away."

Wen Shangshu looked surprised, he wanted to see where this son's confidence came from.

The author has something to say: 　　 Thank you all for your Huahua, thank you for throwing a mine in the middle of the night, right?

Ruan Ruan’s business is to sell the world’s most delicious braised duck. Hahaha Fupin Chinese
