Dali Temple Small Dining Room 2

Chapter 114 Xiaolong Soup Dumplings ([-])
Of course, Ji Caimai didn't say this kind of talk right away, but found a nearby food table and sat down to watch the three of them divide the work and cook the morning food.

By the time the three of them finished making the skin jelly, mincing the meat, and rolling out the dough, it was less than an hour before the meal began.

"Pi Dong needs some work." Seeing this, Ji Caimai said, "I should have given it to you last night if I had known."

Wen Mingtang nodded, looked at the gradually brightening sky outside, and mixed the skin jelly with minced meat, and said, "It's too late."

A Bing is very skilled at making buns with glutinous rice balls.Together with Wen Mingtang, the two of them rolled out the skin and made two bags. After wrapping, they put the stacked dumplings with soup in a pot to steam.

When the stack of tall dumplings filled with soup came out of the pot, the bell rang, and it was time for the morning meal.

Not every day the first wave of people who come to the public kitchen to eat the morning food are the same, but there must be a few regular customers among these people.

For example, Liu Yuan, and Zhao You.

It was no surprise to see these two!Today's Chaoshi Xiaolong Tangbao is divided into a basket for each person, and there are eight in a basket, too many... There are no more.

Since there are not many pork buns prepared today, Ji Caimai bought the morning food distributed by himself.

Zhao You deliberately changed to a larger food box, but he could only get two portions. He couldn't help being disappointed, and left with a sigh after taking his and Lin Fei's portion.

"It's good to eat something!" Ji Caimai said when he saw this, and glanced at Liu Yuan who was expressing emotion.

Each person gets a steamer. In the center of the steamer is a soup dumpling that has been squeezed into many folds, and the surrounding ones are arranged in a circle around it, adding up to a total of eight.

This soup dumpling is obviously different from the other buns: the skin is thinner, and the soft and sloshing soup inside can be seen through the thin skin. It must be the soup.

How on earth did you pour the soup into the steamed stuffed bun?Liu Yuan looked curiously.

However, because of the thin skin, there is soup inside. Compared with the other buns, due to the presence of soup, the buns can't stand upright, but half "lying", and the soup swayed slightly when walking.

Liu Yuan looked curious, and when he was about to take the steamer to the food table and sit down to eat the morning food, he heard Ji Caimai's instruction: "Don't rush to eat, first take a small bite at the edge, suck the soup inside and then eat it." Stop, otherwise..." Ji Caimai paused when he said this, and subconsciously covered his mouth with his hand, Liu Yuan then noticed that Ji Caimai's lips were much redder than usual, and then listened to him, "Be careful it's hot!"

Liu Yuan: "..."

It seems that this is a lesson learned by Ji Caimai himself.Saying a thousand words and ten thousand words is no more effective than this personal experience!
Seeing Ji Caimai's reddened lips, the few people who lined up nearby suddenly realized that they were a little more vigilant as they swallowed their saliva while looking at the small and cute soup dumplings pinched one by one in the steamer.

Xiaolongtangbao is the same as when eating pan-fried buns and fried thumbs. It comes with a small plate and comes with dipping sauce.

For example, Liu Yuan just poured vinegar and two drops of sesame oil and sat down.

When the first chopsticks were about to be dropped, Ji Caimai, who had "experience", said again: "Be gentle when picking it up, and carefully break it. When the chopsticks pinch the edge of the steamed stuffed bun, be gentle with your hands."

Everyone was stunned again, when Liu Yuan was about to touch the soup dumpling, his movements became much lighter. He clamped one of the soup dumplings by the edge and lifted it up gently, separating the soup dumpling from the steamer. He lifted it up and put it on a plate.

Rolling around the edge of the steamed stuffed bun with some vinegar on it, Liu Yuan picked it up again, blew on one place, and gently bit open a small mouth.

The hot air wrapped in the dough rushed out immediately, feeling the small gust of hot air, if there is no reminder from Ji Caimai, the hot air might burn your tongue directly.

After blowing on the pork meat and soup inside through the torn hole, Liu Yuan began to suck the soup inside.

The soup is salty with a slight sweetness. Compared with pure saltiness, the salty-sweet taste is a bit surprising, but because of the addition of sweetness, it has more inexplicable umami taste.

After the soup inside was sucked up, finally he could no longer be "gentle", Liu Yuan bit open the thin skin, the skin was thin but soft yet tough, completely different from the softness of the skin of ordinary steamed stuffed buns.The pork meat inside is equally salty and sweet, chewy in the sweetness, and the dipping sauce with vinegar and sesame oil is not only not greasy, but even more sweet and fresh.

Liu Yuan likes the Xiaolongtangbao very much, but he doesn't like the fact that he has to be "forced" to be gentle when eating. After all, the Xiaolongtangbao has a "tempered temper" that burns his mouth if he is not gentle.

Watching a few impatient colleagues scald their mouths and yell "Aww", it makes people eat more carefully.

After this "gentle" meal, I will be busy with the case again.

Liu Yuan rushed out of Dali Temple with a few servants who were also full of food and drink, and went straight to the direction of Yishan.

Today, Zhou Dagui, a mountain man, will be brought to Dali Temple for interrogation.

Because Zhou Dagui is very likely to be the real culprit who killed Zhuang Meiniang's husband and his wife, when Liu Yuan led people there, he specially asked people to "ambush" around his house, in case anyone escaped or killed red-eyed people in a panic. possible.

As a result, when he knocked on the courtyard door and entered, Zhou Dagui was still chopping his firewood in the courtyard.Seeing them, he let out an "oh" when he heard the intention, with a calm expression, wiped his hands, and followed them to Dali Temple.

The process of leading people was simply smooth and unbelievably smooth.

When Liu Yuan brought him back to Dali Temple, he couldn't help muttering: This is much smoother than when he was looking for Ruan Zhan and Han Jun Shutong!But every time those two people found one, they would die before they found it.

I don't know if this incident has anything to do with Zhou Dagui.

It was still Liu Yuan who asked the question, Lin Fei just watched from the side and shook his head, as if he didn't intend to speak.

When Liu Yuan asked whether Zhuang Meiniang's husband and Zhou Dagui's wife were killed by him, his answer was exactly the same as what Zhuang Meiniang said.

"No." Zhou Dagui said, "They were condemned by the gods and died on their own. It has nothing to do with me. I have witnesses when the accident happened."

In fact, Zhou Dagui didn't need to say this, they all knew about it.

Liu Yuan frowned, of course that wasn't what they wanted to know.After a short pause, Liu Yuan asked Zhou Dagui, "Do you recognize Han Jun and Ruan Zhan?"

Zhou Dagui nodded and said: "Yes. He told me about my daughter-in-law and Mrs. Zhuang's husband."

This is also the same as what Zhuang Meiniang heard.

"Then what is your relationship with these two people?" Liu Yuan frowned more and more tightly, and continued to ask Zhou Dagui.

Zhou Dagui said: "It's just a message, I'm not familiar with it."

Then why did these two people die inexplicably?Could it really be just a coincidence that has nothing to do with Zhou Dagui?Liu Yuan's heart sank, and when he was about to continue asking questions, Lin Fei who was standing aside suddenly said, "Is the death of Han Jun Shutong related to you?"

As soon as these words came out, even Liu Yuan was taken aback subconsciously, and looked at Zhou Dagui instinctively.

Zhou Dagui, who was originally extremely calm in the face of their sudden visit, froze when this question came up.

　Happy National Day!
