Relying on the system of criticizing people to become a god in farming literature

Chapter 238 Meat Soup

After Cheng Yao came down from the mountain, he walked around the Moon City for half a day and got to know the general layout of the city.

Taking the Luna Street in the center as the central axis, it unfolds symmetrically from left to right.

The locations and areas of the east and west cities are equal to each other, symmetrical from left to right, and distributed in an orderly and neat manner.

There are many residential areas in the north and south, which are cut into uniformly sized squares and housed in different houses for the living of the people.

The common people work at sunrise and rest at sunset. After working in the east and west cities, they return to the north and south residential areas to rest.

Both the East Market and the West Market are indispensable commercial parts of Yuecheng, but their grades and positioning are slightly different.

Generally speaking, there are more powerful people in the East City, while there are more poor people in the West City.

This is because there are many mansions and compounds of dignitaries and dignitaries built around the East Market, so the shops in the East Market mostly serve these wealthy and powerful people.

There are many civilian residences around the West Market, and the products sold in the market are mostly daily necessities such as fruits, vegetables, and groceries.

Although the focus of the two cities is slightly different, there is still continuity between them.

The houses of dignitaries also need to purchase the most basic daily necessities, so there are no very clear boundaries between the east markets.

People in Yuecheng also attach great importance to food, so in addition to large restaurants, there are many street stalls in the city.

After walking around for a long time, Cheng Yao finally remembered all of this in her heart.

"Huh, I've been walking for a while, and I'm feeling a little hungry. Find a place to sit down and eat something warm."

Cheng Yao touched her belly and walked to the West Market unsteadily.

There are more delicious shops here and the prices are cheaper, which is suitable for people like her who have no money and leisure to explore.

Cheng Yao walked around in circles and finally chose to sit down in front of a stall of a meat shop.

"Boss, a piece of meat, slightly spicy, vinegar and cilantro!"

"okay--"

"Wait a moment, I'll cook it for you right away!"

It's not a hotel now, so there aren't many customers in the store, and they sit in groups of twos and threes.

The store is an old one, and the old tables and chairs have the charm of time.

Individual condiments are placed on each table to facilitate guests with heavy tastes to add their own condiments.

After the boss opened the lid of the pot, hot steam rushed out.

A thin wooden board was placed on his left hand, with a ball of delicate pink meat on it.

He picked up a scraper with his right hand, sliced ​​the meat into pieces, and threw it into the hot pot.

The slices of meat will quickly swell under the heat of the boiling water.

When the meat pieces float, it means they are cooked and ready to be cooked.

Cheng Yao looked at the meat slices brought to her and began to review the recipe and key points of this bowl of meat slices in her mind.

In terms of material selection, the first choice is hind leg meat or tenderloin.

The fat and fascia contained in the meat must also be removed in advance, otherwise it will affect the taste.

After mincing the meat into fine minced meat, beat it continuously until it becomes a fine meat paste.

During the beating process, add seasonings and tapioca flour in appropriate proportions.

The amount of tapioca flour is very important, as it will affect the final taste of the meat slices.

You can put chopped green onion, coriander, dried shrimps, seaweed, and rice vinegar in the bowl. The most critical step is to add yellow pepper water.

Remember, it’s yellow pepper water.

In the meat slices, ordinary red peppers cannot match the flavor of yellow peppers. This is a little trick to stand out.

After looking through it quickly, Cheng Yao lowered her head and tasted it carefully.

After the meat slices are processed with tapioca flour, it not only increases the smoothness of the taste, but also makes the meat slices more chewy while maintaining tenderness. The sourness of the rice vinegar and the spiciness of the yellow pepper water blend well together in the mouth, making you salivate and make you want to take another bite.

Just as Cheng Yao was eating heartily, a young girl came to the seat next to her.

After ordering a bowl of sliced ​​meat, he sat there glumly, not knowing what he was thinking.

When away from home, Cheng Yao adheres to the principle of not meddling in other people's business.

What's more, some people don't like the interruption of strangers when they are sad.

So after Cheng Yao looked at it quietly, he concentrated on eating the meat slices in front of him.

However, after a while, Cheng Yao was almost finished eating, and the girl was still looking at the meat in front of her in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

Suddenly, a small sob came from Cheng Yao's ear.

The sobs became more intense, and in the end, they turned into obvious crying.

And those teardrops that fell down fell directly into the meat soup.

Cheng Yao frowned and thought, how salty will this soup be later?

By the way, what happened to this girl?
  Cheng Yao raised her head and looked around at the reactions of the people around her.

Seeing that everyone seemed to know this girl, there was a hint of sadness and sympathy in their eyes.

But even so, no one came forward to care and comfort.

Although Cheng Yao didn't want to meddle in other people's business, she had no choice but to do so. She was naturally soft-hearted and didn't see others being miserable.

After thinking for a moment, Cheng Yao decided to step forward and ask.

If there are some minor difficulties, maybe she can help?

If you are happy to help others, you can accumulate merit for yourself.

After making up her mind, Cheng Yao leaned forward, got closer, and asked softly.

"Girl? Are you in any trouble?"

"Um, maybe you tell me and I'll see if I can help you?"

"But let's agree in advance, I don't have money. If you need financial help, I may not be able to help you..."

When the girl heard Cheng Yao's question, she turned her head slowly.

Cheng Yao couldn't hold it back and took a small step back.

It seemed that the girl had cried more than once. Her eyes were as swollen as walnuts, big and round.

It can be vaguely distinguished that this girl is quite pretty, but her eyes really ruin her beauty.

"Thank you, kindhearted person, I...wuwu..."

Before she even said a few sharp words, the girl started crying again.

The crying Cheng Yao's head was about to get bigger. She closed her eyes tightly in pain and shouted loudly!

"Don't cry!"

The girl was startled by her sudden roar, but she stopped crying.

The other diners were also frightened, and kept looking at Cheng Yao with doubtful eyes.

Cheng Yao coughed twice in embarrassment, and then said pleasantly.

"You keep sobbing and crying, and you can't even speak clearly. I can't help you."

"If you don't say anything, I will leave."

Although Cheng Yao wanted to help her, if she didn't cooperate, there was nothing Cheng Yao could do.

Sure enough, when she heard Cheng Yao was about to leave, the girl immediately stood up and grabbed her wrist.
