Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
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 wors.h.i.+pped the young Madam. Even the G.o.ds 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 G.o.dly, but she couldn’t be this G.o.dly, 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.
“Alright, I’ll try it.”
Xiao Zeyu looked forward to it. He wanted to see if the noodles only soaked in hot water were edible. He wanted to open the lid when the food delivery officer stopped him.
“Wait a minute, you have to count 200 before you can eat it.”
“You still want to check the numbers?”
Xiao Zeyu was a little shocked. What kind of eating method was this? If you don’t get to 200, you won’t eat?
“Yes, that’s what Madam instructed.”
The minor official who delivered the grain strictly obeyed the Young Master’s wife’s orders. Even the Young Master could not violate them.
Xiao Zeyu had no choice but to wait patiently. As the water was boiling, he placed the dried bread into the pot. He watched as the bread disintegrated into strands of noodles in the hot water. He grabbed a handful of dried ingredients and sprinkled them into the pot. A magical scene happened.
The dried ingredients spread out like the tea he had brewed. The green onions and red carrots made the broth even more attractive.
“Young Master, you can eat now.”
The food delivery officer counted to two hundred and opened the lid on the bowl. He presented it to Xiao Zeyu as if he were presenting a treasure. His bright eyes were filled with impatience. He wanted to know if the young Master would be as satisfied as he was after eating the noodles.
Xiao Zeyu saw that the soaked noodles had already spread out. There were chopped green onions and carrots floating on top, and an alluring fragrance wafted into his nose. He couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. He took the bowl and chopsticks and began to eat.
Zhong Yong’s large head came over, his face filled with anxiety as he waited for Xiao Zeyu to finish tasting his food.
This smell was too fragrant. He didn’t feel hungry at first, but when he smelled it, his stomach began to rumble.
Xiao Zeyu tasted it seriously and even smacked his lips twice, allowing the taste to linger in his mouth longer. He felt that it wasn’t enough and drank another mouthful of soup. His careful tasting made Zhong Yong extremely anxious.
“Big brother, let me try it. Ha ha, I’m drooling.”
“Alright, try it.”
Xiao Zeyu said, then picked another piece of food and ate it before handing it to Zhong Yong.
Zhong Yong impatiently took the chopsticks and began to eat furiously, causing Xiao Zeyu to frown. What a waste!
Zhang Jinglin stretched out his hand twice. In the end, he was too embarra.s.sed to say anything because he was not familiar with Zhong Yong. He watched as Zhong Yong drank the entire bowl of broth and burped in satisfaction.
Zhang Jinglin swallowed his saliva, his eyes full of regret. However, he immediately placed his hopes on the noodles in the pot. That seemed to be even more delicious.
“Young Master, it’s better to crack an egg inside.”
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 splas.h.i.+ng. 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 craftsmans.h.i.+p.
“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 amus.e.m.e.nt. 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 cuc.u.mbers 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 cuc.u.mbers that Master made?”
Xiao Zeyu had no choice but to take out a bowl of cuc.u.mbers. Everyone gathered around to taste the cuc.u.mbers. This was too delicious.. It was a perfect match with the dried vegetables!
