Chapter 314 Homemade Rice Noodles
Gu Qingyun could only stand up, say goodbye to everyone, and leave with Xinhai.
"Young Master, this trip may be very dangerous. If anything dangerous happens, follow the old rules and you run first." Xinhai smiled naively and gathered his bag while smiling.
Gu Qingyun hit him on the head and said, "We should run together if there is danger. There is no reason for me to run first."
Xin Hai wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Gu Qingyun without hesitation.
"Will we reach Cangzhou tonight?"
Cangzhou is the first pass outside Kyoto Prefecture. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is also the reason why Dayan Dynasty established its capital in Kyoto Prefecture.
Leaving Cangzhou means leaving Kyoto Prefecture.
Xinhai nodded. Having said that, it was still quite difficult.
This time, he also brought people from Honghu Temple. These people are weak scholars, so they may not be able to run too fast.
Besides, since he was going there as a businessman, it would be inappropriate to go there without a carriage. It would take him two days to get to Cangzhou due to the delay.
"There's no need to rush." Gu Qingyun yawned, and the two of them headed towards the South Gate.
When they arrived at the South Gate, there were already a few people waiting. When Gu Qingyun saw Xiao Pingzi, his eyes twitched.
"Greetings, Lord Shaoqing." Xiao Pingzi bowed to Gu Qingyun with lowered eyebrows.
"Eunuch Ping." Gu Qingyun looked at the bag on Xiao Pingzi's body and naturally knew what the emperor meant.
This is a triple insurance. The emperor has found four forces to restrain and supervise each other.
It seems that this matter is too eye-catching.
"The emperor asked me to go with him, so please take care of me, Lord Shaoqing." Xiao Pingzi was actually a little bit tearful. He was almost asleep last night when his master called him anxiously.
Let him pack his bags and go with us today.
If you ask why, it is because the emperor cannot do without someone by his side. Eunuch Wei naturally cannot go, but Xiao Pingzi can go. It is reassuring and it will not delay the work in the palace.
Xiao Pingzi could only yawn while packing his bag. Although he wanted to ask if he could not go, he had to accept his fate when he saw his master's expression.
Gu Qingyun nodded but didn't say anything more.
The group waited for about a quarter of an hour before everyone arrived.
Gu Qingyun was the captain of this team. He briefly talked about the dangers they would encounter during the meeting, and then the group left Kyoto Prefecture.
At this time, An Qiao was already directing Dashu and Xiaoshu to make rice noodles together.
The night before yesterday, An Qiao suddenly dreamed of the braised pork shreds she had in Dali in her previous life. She felt like her saliva was flowing all night.
Although I didn’t find myself drooling when I woke up in the morning, I still wanted to eat.
So I thought I could try making the rice noodles myself and see if I could.
As soon as she got up yesterday morning, An Qiao went straight to the warehouse. Although the rice and flour she bought were always considered the best in the rice and grain shop, this was her first time making it, so An Qiao thought it would be better to be cautious.
He rummaged through the rice jar, hoping to find the best rice.
I soaked the rice in water yesterday afternoon. Now the rice grains are plump and round and have absorbed all the water.
An Qiao was very satisfied.
Dashu looked at the soaked rice and was curious, "Are you going to make rice cakes, young lady?"
An Qiao shook her head. "Of course not. I want to make something that you probably haven't eaten before. It's soft and sticky, and it tastes delicious when it's cooked."
Dashu and Xiaoshu felt like they were drooling at this moment. The young lady knew how to whet other people's appetite.
"Take out all the rice and drain the water. Let's have breakfast first." An Qiao looked at the state of the rice and picked up the gauze and said.
The three of them worked very efficiently and soon put all the rice on the gauze.
An Qiao looked at the weather and was very satisfied. "This weather is good. I can steam and cook after breakfast."
Sure enough, after they were gone for half an hour, the rice was almost dried when they came back.
Steam the rice repeatedly in a steamer.
After steaming, An Qiao arranged the Dashu and Xiaoshu for pounding. Dashu was confused, isn't this the order of making rice cakes?
An Qiao didn't explain much. The two of them pounded and rubbed the bait, repeating the action continuously, and a whole piece of sticky bait came out.
"My dear, you can eat it now." Dashu still thought that this was just rice cake.
An Qiao looked at the state of the bait and said, "No, it needs to be cooled down and turned into a block before it can be cut into strips."
"Ah? Young lady, if this thing gets cold and hard, it won't taste good." Dashu said in a daze.
An Qiao laughed again and said, "I've already told you, this is rice cake. When it gets cold, I'll cook it for you and you'll know how delicious it is."
Dashu and Xiaoshu looked at each other, still a little curious.
But the young lady said that we can eat them when they are cold. With the wind blowing, won’t they be cold in a short time?
A few people sat aside to rest. An Qiao cooked a pot of sour plum soup and sat under the porch, which was quite comfortable.
"It's been strange lately. Yu Shui didn't tell me about today's progress. Could it be that An Le has gone quiet?" An Qiao suddenly thought of An Le. Could it be that he has failed? It was unbelievable, but after thinking about it carefully, An Qiao felt that it was unlikely.
Anle is a real ungrateful person, how could he just stop like that?
"Go and call Yu Shui." An Qiao asked Xiao Shu to run over. She was now sweating all over and didn't want to move at all.
Xiaoshu nodded immediately and disappeared at the end of the corridor.
It wasn't long before rain was brought in.
"Young lady, what do you want to talk to me about?" Looking at the rain's current state, it was calm and nothing serious happened.
"Why didn't An Le come to make trouble today? He didn't write any sour articles either?" An Qiao was a little confused.
"No one came to make trouble, just the same as yesterday. However, many people now believe the young lady. Now in the restaurant, there are many new faces listening to Xu Banshan's story." Yu Shui thought about it and realized that nothing happened today.
An Qiao waved her hand to let the rain go back, but her mind was still working fast.
Impossible, there must be something fishy.
Anle definitely wanted to make it impossible for her to stay in Kyoto Prefecture so that she could take over all the stores she opened in Kyoto Prefecture.
How could a person with such thoughts just stop there?
An Qiao called Da Han again, "Go out and ask around, what is An Le doing recently?"
If she didn't ask carefully, An Qiao would always have a bad feeling in her heart.
Dahan soon left, and Anqiao stood up and paced in the yard.
I don't know why, but I've been having so much trouble lately.
It’s all Anle’s fault.
I clearly wanted to find a practitioner for Koi this month, but after asking several pharmacies, none of them were suitable.
