Chapter 272 Hongmen Banquet?!

Under the professional training in Qinhuai, the villagers' helping skills become more and more proficient, and the helping team is getting bigger and bigger. How can I say that relatives should be close to each other.
Every time a few new relatives who can call their names to greet New Year's greetings will be added in the kitchen. As there are more people who can help, they will be saturated. Not only will they accept various leave requests, but they will be able to make leave.
I have to schedule a shift to work.
For a time, the competition among relatives became fierce. Qinhuai's cousins ​​who were not very close in friendship in the past showed their skills like peacocks spreading their tails, bringing their own dishes and chopsticks to help.
I lived close to each other, and found a place to stay away from home that day.
Qin Huai's eldest and third uncles have been staying in the Qin family since the second day of the New Year greetings.
Don’t ask, ask means you have a deep relationship with your younger sister and have not seen you for a long time and I have endless things to say.
At this time, someone may ask: It’s very tiring to help in the kitchen. Anyone who has helped to prepare a large cereal or New Year’s Eve helps elders prepare New Year’s Eve dinner knows that this is definitely not an easy job.
Even if you chop firewood and burn the fire, it is not easy. Although Sixi Tangtuan is delicious, it is essentially a big Tangtuan. After eating it for a few days, it will not be so fond of eating it. How could the villagers love helping so much?
The answer is that the helpers have different meals.
From the time when the fortune teller came to Qinjia Village, he found out that Qinhuai had a younger brother and a younger sister. Old Master Qin was overjoyed and gave him 5 yuan and took care of a meal. It can be seen that the Qin family has a very simple tradition of taking care of people.
The helpers who successfully competed for employment ate with the Qin family.
Qin Huai is trying to make Sixi Tangtuans with no mistakes. He has also made a lot of Sixi Tangtuans with Huang Ji before, but Sixi Tangtuans are made for others to eat. How could he be able to make every day to make proficiency in order to make proficiency in every day.
Eat Sixi Tangtuan.
Who can withstand three meals and four joy dumplings a day?
The neighbor next door ate every night and ate normally the rest of the time.
As a white chef who is proficient in a variety of white snacks, Qinhuai still likes to eat something different on weekdays.
What are the three-die buns, five-die buns, four-happy dumplings, wine-stewed steamed buns, crab shell yellow, jiangmi rice cake, hibiscus cake, mung bean cake, plum vegetable buckles from the village chief's family, braised pork trotters from the old clerk's family, and glutinous rice from the uncle's family
Couscous, white-cut chicken and roast goose from the town, and freshly fried vegetables pulled from the neighbor's field.
Qinhuai has a lot of three meals a day. After spending several days at the Qin family, my uncle was so happy that he almost forgot that his home was no longer here.
The rich He Cheng and Qin Luo have not held the big bowl of sea bowl and eaten Sixi Tangtuan for the past two days, and are purely chopping firewood.
Yes, Qin Luo taught He Cheng the skill of chopping firewood, and the siblings chopping firewood together.
When it comes to gossip, Qin Luo could not compete with the old branch secretary. The old branch secretary brought his own teacup and bench to the kitchen every day and sat down. Moreover, the old branch secretary was also proficient in making tea, and the tea was brewed quite well, and it was in the entire kitchen.
An indispensable mainstay.
The indispensable old branch secretary will be absent on the sixth day of the lunar calendar.
It has been reported in advance. Someone wishes New Year's greetings, and the old branch secretary wants to bring Carpenter Zhang and his family to eat Sixi Tangtuan.
After eating until the sixth day of the lunar month, the Qin family is still full of guests.
No one will always like to eat Sixi Tangtuan, but someone will always be willing to come to pay New Year's greetings to eat Sixi Tangtuan.
Qin Huai made a statement on the first day of the New Year. During the entire Chinese New Year, as long as you come to pay New Year's greetings, you will definitely not let the other party come back empty-handed. Standing outside the yard with a bowl of rice, you can at least eat a bowl of fresh and hot Sixi soup.
.
Mr. Qin and Grandma Qin, Qin Huai also explained that he had a big job in March, which was related to reputation, money, and big scenes, which was very important. For this big job in March, you must train hard.
Sixi Tangtuan, please tell grandparents not to worry about the little bit of the ingredients for making the Tangtuan. Everyone is not empty-handed to greet New Year's greetings. Then your grandson is promising. The red envelopes for the New Year are collected on checks. This Sixi Tangtuan made during the New Year
Just treat it as a reward for the countryside.
Qin Huai explained this to the point, and of course Mr. Qin and Grandma Qin would not object, for fear of being tired of their eldest grandson looking for useful helpers everywhere.
In order to help, Grandma Qin almost made up her past grudges with her younger brothers and sisters, and picked her up from her own nephews and nieces.
Then one was not selected.
No matter how you look at it, you feel that it is not as good as the Zhao family.
During this period, Qin Huai's second uncle tried to come to visit the door for New Year's greetings on the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, but was discovered on the spot by Grandma Qin.
You are so old that you can even remember the New Year’s greetings mistakenly. You have seen this at home. People really can’t treat more people. Take things back. We have to follow the procedures, not as good as you say.
Time is coming to greet the New Year, so many relatives at home are messing around with the words and climbing back.
Qin Luo, who witnessed the whole process, ran back to the kitchen and whispered to Qin Huai, saying that after so many years, his grandmother still held such a grudge and her speech did not change at all.
As a result, this statement was reported to Grandma Qin by He Cheng. Qin Luoxi mentioned Sixi Tangtuan to eat, but nothing else was eaten.
On the morning of the sixth day of the lunar month, Qin Luo, who had been eating Sixi Tang for a day and a half, squatted at the kitchen door with a big bowl and ate Sixi Tang Tuan bitterly.
Sixi Tangtuan is delicious.
but.
Three-dine bread, five-dine bread, four-happy dumplings, fresh meat filling, crab shell yellow, and yellow.
Milk, I was wrong! I will never say you are petty and you are vengeful. Your granddaughter, I really want to eat meat-filled snacks!!
Sixi Tangtuan is so sweet with three sweet fillings!!!
The old branch secretary led Carpenter Zhang's family to the Qin family early. Seeing Qin Luo sitting at the kitchen door with a big bowl, he was amused: "Luoluo, I've eaten the dumpling early in the morning!"
"How long has the previous batch of glutinous rice dumplings been cooked? When will the next batch of glutinous rice dumplings be cooked? Why do you have a bitter face? Who makes you unhappy? I know, is your brother asking you to do your homework? You have to hurry up with this homework?
Time to write. The boys in my family work their homework every year in the last few days of the holiday. The things they write are messy, and they waste time and useless."
After saying that, the old branch secretary sneaked in and saw that the kitchen was in good order, and he knew that there was nothing wrong. He said with confidence: "Huaihuai, Xiao Zhangzhang and the others are here."
When Qin Luo heard the old branch secretary say this, he thought that he had not finished many papers, so he became even more sad. He sucked his nose and almost fell into the soup bowl.
The old branch secretary found that Qin Luo was sniffing and asked with concern: "Did you catch a cold? So are your child? Why are you sitting in the air? Even if it's not cold, you can't sit here."
Just as Qin Luo was about to be moved, the old branch secretary continued, "It's warm to sit in the house and do homework."
Qin Luo:-
Qin Luo lowered his head and ate a bite of the dumpling.
Now that’s it, let’s have some glutinous rice dumplings.
The old branch secretary stood at the kitchen door waiting for Qinhuai to come out. During the Spring Festival, the kitchen was an important place and irrelevant personnel were prohibited from entering. The old branch secretary understood this truth.
Carpenter Zhang and his family stood outside the kitchen waiting without knowing it.
The old branch secretary of the carpenter had already explained the situation of Carpenter Zhang's family when he was talking about gossip. Carpenter Zhang's name is Zhang Chu.
A native of Peking, a educated youth came to Li County when he went to the countryside. He worked as an educated youth in several villages near Qinjia Village. Later, he worked as a carpenter in the county's timber factory for several years because of the information from the old branch secretary. Then his family moved to the city.
Carpenter Zhang's wife is Cao Guixiang, and she is a great chef. She was also a famous young Cao in all villages at that time. It is said that she had been a chef in the county for a long time. The old branch secretary saved the money for a long time and waited for a day to be extravagant.
I went to the restaurant where Cao Guixiang worked for a meal, but Cao Guixiang stopped working before she saved enough money. She was so angry that the old branch secretary hadn't eaten for three days.
Today, Carpenter Zhang led a family to the place where Cao Guixiang was missing. It is estimated that Cao Guixiang was showing off his skills at the village chief's house in their village.
Carpenter Zhang has a son and a daughter, his son is called Zhang Chiyuan, his daughter is called Zhang Siyu, his grandson is called Zhang Zhiyun, and his granddaughter is called Chang Qingqing.
Every year, Carpenter Zhang takes his family back to the village to pay New Year's greetings, intending to let the juniors at home see the places where their grandparents worked hard, cherish their current life, and remember the bitterness and sweetness.
While the old branch secretary was talking outside, Qin Huai was mixing the stuffing and couldn't leave for a while. He could only let He Cheng go out to move chairs for Zhang Chu's family and not let the guests stand.
Seeing that He Cheng had a task, Qin Luo felt that he could not lose. If he didn't show off his skills, he could only eat Sixi Tangtuan during this Spring Festival holiday, so he quickly put down his bowl and moved the chair.
"Sit!" Qin Luo put the chair in front of Zhang Chu's grandson Zhang Zhiyun, and said loudly.
Zhang Zhiyun was startled by Qin Luo.
In terms of age, Zhang Zhiyun is about the same age as Qin Luo. The old branch secretary mentioned that Zhang Chu's grandson was in the second year of junior high school this year.
Qin Luo had no idea that he was scaring the new guest, so he kept looking for chairs everywhere, running fast with one hand. Zhang Chu couldn't help but sigh:
"This little girl is so powerful."
After all the Zhang family members sat down, Qin Luo was very insightful and made tea with tea, which made He Cheng stunned, not understanding why his cousin suddenly rolled up.
It seems that the one who rolls it is still me.
When the Zhang family had tea, Qinhuai also had time to go out to welcome guests.
"Grandpa Zhang, I have long been obsessed with Daming. I have heard that your carpenter has a very good craftsmanship and have always wanted to find you to customize a set of molds. Unfortunately, you have moved out of the county for many years. I don't have your contact information here. I thought I didn't have this one.
fate."
"I never thought it was so coincidental that the old branch secretary told me two days ago that he knew you, and that you would come to our village to pay New Year's greetings every year. I specially asked the old branch secretary to ask him to help you recommend when you come today."
"Have you eaten breakfast? It doesn't matter if you eat it. Let's wait until lunch orders and eat some casually. I have nothing else here. Now there is Sixi Tangtuo in the pot, which is already served and is being cooled.
It will be eaten immediately. Luoluo, go and see if the buns, steamed buns, and dumplings are ready? Then serve them out."
"I'll make a few more hand-rolled noodles later, cook them with chicken soup, add some vegetables and mushrooms to the same taste."
Qin Huai's enthusiasm could not make Zhang Chu up. Zhang Chu thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out who Qin Huai was.
Zhang Chu looked at Qin Huai's age and felt that the young master Qin in front of him must have not ordered molds in his hands.
Such enthusiasm, could it be the Hongmen Banquet?
Zhang Chu hesitated and asked, "Qin-Qin---
"Just call me Xiao Qin."
"Have you ordered molds from me before?" Zhang Chu asked carefully.
Qin Huai nodded: "My father ordered it back then, and I probably hadn't been born yet. My father said that it was very popular in Lixian County during that time to make dim sum, and my father also wanted to open a dim sum shop. I ordered 4 sets of molds from you.
There are ordinary and complex ones, and there is one set of Journey to the West series.
"The mold is very good, but unfortunately my father won't use it after he has not been ordered. So the molds behind him are not useful, and my father hasn't opened a snack shop or a breakfast shop."
Zhang Chu felt a little nervous.
It's over, it's indeed the Hongmen Banquet.
He made money for that period of bad intentions in his life to buy a house in the city. He had not been exposed for 20 years, and was found by the victim 20 years later.
"Xiao Qin." Zhang Chu began to confess on the spot, "The mold incident was indeed Grandpa Zhang because he was short of money. There is nothing I can do about it. The houses in the city are too expensive. I only make money by my wife alone. In my heart, I feel that
It was not easy to feel good, and the timber factory had a dead salary, so I couldn't think of it for a moment and used some evil ways.
Qin Huai was also saying: "Although my dad basically doesn't know how to use those molds, I started to use molds to make snacks and found that the molds are really of good quality, but they are a bit difficult for ordinary dim sum masters. This time I
I came here just to ask you to make a few sets for the present...
The two of them were stunned and looked at each other.
Zhang Chu: "How many sets of molds do you want me to make?"
Qin Huai: "Are you a rude way, and you are obsessed with the mind?"
After a few times of looking at each other, Zhang Chu made all the moves.
I found a corner to trick.
Back then, the dim sum business in Lixian County was very popular, but that dim sum business was brought up by Zhang Chu's wife Cao Guixiang. Those who really made wealthy business flock to buy custom-made high-end dim sum gift boxes at high prices.
All of them are made by Cao Guixiang.
The so-called mold set for Cao Guixiang to make snacks is also the news that Zhang Chu brought out to earn some mold money.
The couple did all this with only one purpose, one likes and one likes to buy a house.
When buying a house in the city, Zhang Chu and Cao Guixiang felt that the education in the county was not good enough, so they wanted to move to the city to allow their son and daughter to receive a better education, which led to the subsequent delights.
As for the subsequent price of molds, Carpenter Zhang's price is particularly high because of his superb skills, so that it is very expensive, which is all hyped.
Of course, it is a fact that Carpenter Zhang has good craftsmanship.
The mold he created has no problem, and it is true that it can be used.
But ordinary molds can be used, Journey to the West series, and the twelve zodiac series molds are not available at all. But these molds are only valuable. In order to make quick money, Zhang Chu also concealed the conscience and bought these molds.
The fact of the threshold will only persuade you when the sucker is too wronged, and then continue to make the money.
Qin Congwen is undoubtedly the one who was the one who was sucker back then.
"Xiao Qin, this thing was indeed unauthentic when I did it back then. It had nothing to do with my wife, mainly because I did it back then."
"You are now a Baikan Dim Sum Master. If you have this need, I can give you a few batches of simple molds for free."
"Now children can make all the styles they like, such as Peppa Pig, Pikachu, Doraemon,
HelloKitty, the antenna baby, that's not a problem."
"It really doesn't work. One day your family has time to come to my house for a meal. My wife cooks for you and treats it as a plea for you."
Zhang Chu silently confessed.
Qin Huai's eyes lit up when he heard this: "So, the one who used the twelve zodiac series and the Journey to the West series to make snacks was Grandma Cao."
Zhang Chu nodded: "Yes, those dim sums are expensive, and it's troublesome if they are really hand-pinned. Although the mold cannot be used in one step, it can ensure quality and speed up."
"So those molds can be used, at least Grandma Cao will." Qin Huai's eyes brighter.
In recent years, Qin Congwen's Journey to the West series of molds can be said to be Jiujiuxin, and he has basically never used them. Qin Huai has never used them, because Qin Huai actually doesn't know how to use those complex molds.
"Of course it can be used, and I won't sell molds that cannot be used for money. But these molds are too difficult for ordinary chefs. Unlike ordinary molds, they only need to be shaped separately after pressing them.
."
"Will you have something else?"
Zhang Chu:?
Why is the key point of Master Qin so strange?
"You can know more." Qin Huai couldn't mess with Zhang Chu.
"That's great!" Qin Huai was very happy, "Grandpa Zhang, let's add WeChat first."
"At that time, I will ask Grandma Cao to tell me on WeChat how to use the Journey to the West series of molds. You can give me a few batches of the same difficulty. I really need to use these molds to practice fingering now."
These molds are good props for practicing fingering.
They can simplify very complex dim sums, but at the same time they are not that simple, and are very suitable for the current Qinhuai period.
Zhang Chu:?
He just confessed in vain?
Why is this Xiao Qin so stubborn? He is as stubborn as his father back then.
Zhang Chu said that when he just confessed, he had already remembered who Qin Congwen was.
He also advised Qin Congwen back then, and said in a very obscure way that the Journey to the West series was too difficult and the cost was high and not cost-effective. As a result, Qin Congwen didn't listen, so he wanted the most expensive one.
"Xiao Qin, what this mold requires the chef himself-"
"Grandpa Zhang, haven't had lunch yet?" Qin Huai interrupted Zhang Chu's words.
Zhang Chu:?He lost his memory? Did Qin Huai say this at the beginning?
"No." Zhang Chu said.
"Then let's eat some snacks to keep your stomach." Qin Huai led Zhang Chu back to the kitchen door, and the Zhang family had already eaten it.
Eat it voraciously.
Zhang Chu was shocked. It wasn't because he was boasting that their family rarely ate like this outside.
The meals at home are delicious enough, and they usually eat them at home.
Zhang Chu's grandson Zhang Zhiyun ate the most exaggeratedly. He sat next to Qin Luo with a bowl, his face was almost buried in the bowl, and he didn't forget to say loudly:
"The dumplings your brother made are so delicious, just a little worse than what my grandma made!"
"Nonsense, my brother is definitely better than your grandma's!" Qin Luo responded with a louder voice.
"My grandma made it delicious!"
"My brother made it delicious!"
"My grandma makes it better than all the restaurants outside!"
"My brother makes it better than all the restaurants outside!"
"Anyway, my grandma makes the best!"
Chapter completed!
