Flowers in full bloom

Chapter 433 Parting Gift

Bai Yunhe turned his eyes away as he watched Hua Lei's fingers on her left hand constantly interlocking with each other. When Miss Hua lied, she would always do this little action unconsciously, and she might not even know it. But he knew it.

He also knew that Miss Hua's soy sauce and wine were almost all bought by Old Marquis Pei, so it was impossible for them not to be sold. However, since Miss Hua made this suggestion, and this suggestion was indeed very good for him and could help Miss Hua, he would listen to Miss Hua.

So, she nodded and said, "Okay. Then I'll listen to Miss Hua. When I go to Xinjiang, I'll buy a shop." Seeing that Bai Yunhe adopted her advice, Hua Lei breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she still had dreams and pursuits in her heart, it would be fine.

"By the way, please keep this seal. You can send someone from your house over when the time comes." Seeing that Bai Yunhe still didn't take back his seal, Hua Lei pushed the seal in front of Bai Yunhe and said.

"No, this seal should be kept with Miss Hua, so that the accounts for each quarter will be clear. I trust Miss Hua. I just hope Miss Hua can do me this favor as well." Bai Yunhe did not take the seal.

"But this is unreasonable. How can I get money for you and then spend it myself? This is still not..." Hua Lei evaded.

"The guards and servants around me will all follow me to Western Xinjiang. Butler Bai is in charge of all the affairs of our Dingxi Marquis Mansion. He is also very busy and it is unlikely that he can take care of just my affairs. So please ask Miss Hua to do me this favor." Bai Yunhe explained.

"This is once every three months, it's not too much of a hassle......"

"So, please do me a favor, Miss Hua." Bai Yunhe interrupted Hua Lei.

"But........"

"Miss Hua, please do me this favor." Bai Yunhe stood up and prepared to say goodbye.

Looking at Bai Yunhe's determined look, Hua Lei sighed softly and decided to hand this over to Lord Bai in a few days.

Seeing Bai Yunhe getting up to say goodbye, Hua Lei asked curiously, "Mr. Bai, are you really leaving this afternoon? In such a hurry?"

"Well. Miss Hua, is there anything I can help you with?" asked Bai Yunhe, who had already stood up and was about to say goodbye.

"Well, it's like this, how about you wait for me, I will teach you a method of making instant noodles, you can take it to Western Xinjiang and give it to the soldiers in the barracks.

Earlier, Lord Bai said that due to the hot weather in Western Xinjiang, many staple foods easily go bad and spoil, and soldiers can easily get stomach upset.

The pasta I make with this method has a relatively long shelf life and will not easily go bad. It can be eaten directly or simply rinsed with hot water, which is very convenient." Hua Lei said.

Bai Yunhe felt mixed emotions when he saw Hua Lei's sincere face. Did Miss Hua see something? Why did she teach him the method instead of telling her grandfather directly?

Thinking this in his heart, Bai Yunhe asked directly, "Miss Hua, why do you want to teach me? I don't know how to do things in the kitchen. If you want, you can tell my grandfather. My grandfather will definitely be very happy."

"You don't have to do it yourself. I'll write down the instructions for you. Then you can go to the kitchen with me and watch the cook do it. It's not that difficult."

After a pause, he continued, "Isn't it convenient for you to go to Western Xinjiang? Besides, if I tell Lord Bai, he will definitely find someone to send this method to Western Xinjiang.

It's so troublesome to go back and forth like this, I might as well tell you directly. Come on, follow me to the kitchen first, I'll let the cook show you." Hua Lei stood up and walked in front.

Bai Yunhe looked at Hua Lei's back, hesitated for a moment, and then followed Hua Lei silently.

In the kitchen, the cooks were already preparing lunch. Hualei walked over and said a few words to one of the cooks, who nodded.

Take out the dough that has been proofed and start working. Use a rolling pin to roll the proofed dough into a sheet of uniform thickness, and then cut it into noodles of uniform thickness.

Then put the noodles into a plate with regular bumps and squeeze them slightly to shape them into a wavy shape. Then put the shaped noodles directly into the steamer and use high temperature and steam to heat and steam the noodles.

After steaming, take it out. Then put a lot of rapeseed oil in another iron pot, put the cooked noodles into the high-temperature oil pan and fry them thoroughly.

After a while, the noodles will be dehydrated and hardened. Use a hollow bamboo fence to drain the excess oil and water in the noodles. After cooling, the noodles can be eaten.

Hua Lei took a large bowl, put the noodles in it, added some oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and some dried vegetables, rinsed it with boiling water, simmered it for a while, and brought it to Bai Yunhe, saying, "Try it, how does it taste?"

Bai Yunhe took the noodles, sat down at the table, picked up the noodles with chopsticks, and began to taste them. The noodles were soft, glutinous and elastic, without any feeling of being raw.

The amount of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar was just right, with the right amount of saltiness. The dried vegetables also stretched out their original shape in the boiling water. The taste was very special and quite good. Before he knew it, Bai Yunhe had eaten the whole bowl of noodles.

"This method is actually very simple. You just need to steam the noodles and then fry them. Although it takes more oil to fry the noodles, the oil can be reused, so it is not a waste.

If it is only for soldiers on patrol, it should be OK. After all, it is okay to change the taste occasionally. Otherwise, if you keep eating fried noodles and fried rice, you will get bored.

Moreover, I think that when rapeseed can be used to produce oil, the military camp will definitely send a batch of oil first. If this kind of noodles is made, it will be nutritious when it is paired with dried vegetables and some diced pork.

Mr. Bai, what do you think? "Hua Lei sat opposite Bai Yunhe and explained in a soft voice.

"Miss Hua, why don't you make this kind of noodles and sell them? If you make it and sell it directly to the military camp, wouldn't it be very profitable?" Bai Yunhe asked.

Hua Lei smiled and said, "I don't have that much oil right now, so I can make a lot of this instant noodles and sell them. Moreover, although this noodle can be stored for a long time, it is not without a time limit.

If I make it and then send it to the Western Frontier, it will waste a lot of time. If I ask the barracks to make it and have the patrol soldiers take it, it should be no problem even if it takes a month.

It is better to eat fresh food when you can. You can ask the kitchen to not make too much at a time, just enough for the patrolling soldiers."
