Chapter 563 Vegetarian Wontons
Chapter 563 Vegetarian Wontons
During these days, Sun was away, and her beloved son cried every night, clamoring for a wife.
She was heartbroken.
"Well, the five of you brothers will take turns to stay in Sunjia Village. Remember to be careful and avoid being seen by others. Don't let the Sun family see you. Take turns during the day and at night. Stay there for ten days or so. If you still can't see her, then she probably ran away with a strange man.
But it's okay to run away. If we can't afford to offend the people of Jiangjia Village, can we afford to offend the people of Sunjia Village? Five taels of silver, I want the Sun family to pay every penny! Not only the betrothal money, but also the silver bracelet and money that the Jiang family extorted from me, the Sun family will also have to pay for it!"
Old Wang said with a gloomy look on her face, her lips turned down.
Her hands were empty.
The silver bracelet she had worn for many years was gone, and she cried for several days out of heartache.
Since Sun Xiaotao did not go to Jiangjia Village, there was no need for her to divorce Sun Xiaotao.
Who knows if Sun Xiaotao is pregnant with Zhou's child?
If you find him, bring him back, give him a good lesson, and keep a close eye on him in the future.
If you can’t find it, ask for the silver back.
Anyway, her Zhou family cannot suffer losses in vain.
Sun Xiaotao, who was lying on Sun Qiaoer's bed and fantasizing about the future, had no idea that her disaster was about to come.
A spring rain fell at the hour of Mao and did not stop until the evening, when the croaking of frogs could be heard.
Kong Mingxue, who was thousands of miles away, walked out of the Meng family's old house with his servant Lian Shuncong, ready to go shopping.
The seeds had already been bought and were piled up in the old house.
Now we just have to wait for Meng Bujiu to return and then we can set off back.
The master and servant were wandering aimlessly in the street.
The bluestone brick path left footprints wherever you stepped on it. The rain had just stopped and the air was very humid, but there were still many vendors setting up stalls on the street.
When it rains, we put up the cloth to block the wind and rain, all year round, never absent.
Everyone is trying hard to live.
"Are you hungry?" After walking for an unknown amount of time, Kong Ming asked Lian Shun who was beside him.
The two haven't had dinner yet.
"I'm hungry! Young master, there's a stall selling wontons over there. Let's eat wontons tonight?" Lian Shun said without any hesitation, pointing to the stall in front.
"Okay." Kong Mingxue nodded slightly, and the master and servant walked forward.
After buying the seeds, the two came to the Meng family in Yuncang Prefecture.
The Meng family’s house is not big, with only one entrance. There is an old couple guarding the house inside.
They have been eating and drinking at the Meng family these days. To be honest, the cooking of the Meng family's old woman is really not tasty. It's just enough to fill the stomach. The vegetarian dishes are not oily. It may be because they are old and have a bland taste, so the meat dishes are also tasteless. The food is so bland in the mouths of both the master and the servant.
Kong Mingxue originally wanted to take Lian Shun to a restaurant for a good meal, but Lian Shun was attracted by this wonton stall.
The aroma was strong, and seemed different from ordinary wontons. The two sat down, and Lian Shun shouted to the stall owner, "Give me two bowls of wontons, and I want a big bowl."
"My two guests, would you like vegetarian wontons or meat wontons?" The stall owner did not rush to agree, but asked with a smile.
"What? There are vegetarian wontons? Then have a bowl of vegetarian wontons. I want to try what vegetarian wontons taste like. Master, do you want meat or vegetarian?" Lian Shun became curious. As a meat lover, he was ready to try the vegetarian wontons.
"Just like you." Kong Mingxue also said the same.
"Okay, sir. Two bowls of vegetarian wontons. Wait a moment and I'll serve them to you two."
After the stall owner finished speaking, he started making and boiling wontons while shouting at the same time.
This wonton stall is doing very good business. Five and a half out of the six tables are occupied. It seems that no one knows the guests at each table, and everyone is concentrating on eating.
Don't talk at all.
They used a spoon to eat a bite of wonton and drink a sip of soup.
Seeing this made the master and servant even hungrier.
"My two guests, the wontons are ready. Come, be careful of the heat." The stall owner's wife brought a wooden tray with four bowls of wontons on it. She took down two bowls and placed them in front of Kong Mingxue and Lian Shun. She gave another instruction before going to the table next to them.
The same words were heard at the next table.
Kong Mingxue looked at the wontons in front of him, a little surprised.
"This soup seems different from what we have eaten before." The wontons in Lianshan Town are served in clear soup. The main ingredient of the soup is the meat filling inside the wontons, and the soup has no other flavor except saltiness.
The wontons in front of him had a few drops of oil on the soup, which was light brown in color, similar to the mushroom and chicken medicinal soup he had drunk at Fubao's house.
After saying that, Kong Mingxue picked up the spoon and tasted the soup. The next moment, his eyes widened.
"Master, this soup is really delicious, even better than chicken soup. No wonder it smells so good. I can smell it from far away." Lian Shun spoke first.
The two of them couldn't wait to eat another wonton.
Another exclamation sounded.
"This is actually vegetarian wonton? Why do they taste so much like meat? No, meat is not like this. The texture is a bit crispy and chewy, not greasy at all, sweet and fresh, it's really delicious. No wonder this wonton stall is doing so much business."
Following the master who loves to eat, I have become accustomed to tasting the good things in the world.
Lian Shun is also very picky about his mouth.
This was the first time he praised something like this.
"It's really delicious. Not as greasy as meat wontons, and not as bland as vegetarian noodles. I just don't know what the filling is made of. The soup is also delicious. I'm sure Fubao and Wangyou will like it."
Kong Mingxue wanted to take some back with him when he left.
When he heard him mention the word "forget your worries", Lian Shun paused while eating the wontons. He glanced at Kong Mingxue's face and then pretended nothing had happened and continued eating the wontons.
"Sir, I really can't take it with me. Not to mention it's spring now, I can't take it even in winter. You want to go back to Lushu Province, and the two provinces are quite far apart. The wontons would have gone bad on the way." But after paying the money, the stall owner shook his head and said he couldn't take it with him.
"What if we keep it iced?" Kong Mingxue had no shortage of money, so he could afford ice even if it was expensive.
Wrap the raw wontons, sprinkle them with flour to prevent them from sticking, then put them in a box and keep them in the fridge. As long as the carriage goes faster, they should not go bad within seven days.
“No, it will become sour and you won’t be able to eat it if it’s sour.” The stall owner continued shaking his head.
Although this person buys a lot and he can make a lot of money, he still has to do business with conscience, and the taste is secondary. That's why his stall has been standing on this street for fifteen years.
"Are you selling the recipe?" Kong Ming, unwilling to give up, asked again.
"This..." The stall owner looked at him and hesitated.
Some people had asked him before whether he wanted to sell his house, but most of them belonged to the Yuncang Mansion, so he didn't dare to sell it.
It is not worth it to affect future business for the sake of immediate benefits.
But the man in front of him was dressed elegantly. When he paid the bill, he didn't ask for change but gave him small change directly. The tip was more than the wontons.
Since he said he wanted to buy a house, the price he offered would definitely not be low.
The family was short of money recently, and his son wanted to buy a shop to sell spices, but he was still short of forty taels.
