Chapter 585 Shen Guofu: The Happy Time Is Coming to an End! The Bakery in Building 8! 【Please Subscribe】

"Wow! This dish is so fresh!"

Shen Guofu was nibbling pig's trotters when he saw the three-leaf incense on the table. He picked up a chopstick and tasted it. He was fascinated by the fresh taste on the spot.

For Lao Shen, a person who likes to eat meat, this kind of cold dish is not the target choice for dining at all. Even if he eats it, it will get rid of the greasy feeling in his mouth, so that eating meat will be more comfortable.

But the smell of clover and its freshness really surprised him.

So he didn't care about competing with the pig's trotters. He picked up another chopstick and brought it to his mouth. While eating, he said to Han Shuzhen next to him:

"This dish is delicious. Wife, try it. It's so delicious."

After speaking, he took a sip of white wine from the wine glass.

I originally thought that today's meal would require pig's trotters to go with wine, but unexpectedly I was attracted by the cold vegetables. The sour taste is mixed with garlic juice. After one sip, I feel refreshed and go well with wine.

People who like to drink liquor like to drink with some refreshing side dishes, and Shen Guofu is no exception, but the refreshing side dishes he usually eats are usually pork head meat with garlic paste, cold pig ears, etc. There are really no such cold vegetables. Eaten more.

Han Shuzhen tasted it and said to Shen Guofu:

"It's really good. Eat more and don't think about eating meat. When Yueyue, Xiaoxu, Xiaoyan and the others are riding out, you can follow them on the bike. The weather is getting warmer, so it's time to exercise."

Now that there is wine, meat and side dishes, Lao Shen will naturally not disobey his wife.

He took another mouthful of clover, took a sip of white wine, and then said:

"Don't worry, honey, I will definitely leave them all far behind by then. I think back then, we were just a young man riding a bicycle to Tianjin."

Shen Jiayue, who was chewing chicken feet on the side, smiled:

"Dad, with your physique, the wind resistance is a bit high."

Han Shuzhen glared at her daughter, "You stinky girl, you're already married and you're still so young!"

She was just about to teach her daughter a few words when she saw Lin Xu coming over with a portion of roast goose. Drinking wine and eating meat, how could she skip the roast goose?

"Freshly baked, the skin is very crispy."

This was Shen Jiayue's favorite. She picked up a piece of goose breast, dipped it in the sour plum sauce, and ate it happily.

"Xubao, don't forget to add shrimps to tomorrow's egg and leek dumplings. I like shrimps, dried shrimps are also fine."

Lin Xu nodded:

"Okay, I'll add some fresh shrimps tomorrow."

He sat down and tasted the three-leaf incense. It tasted really good. No wonder my father-in-law couldn't stop eating it.

After taking two bites, he finally realized:

"Where's Sister Yan? Weren't you waiting for dinner just now?"

Chen Yuanyuan, who had already got off work, pursed her lips in the direction of the downstairs:

"Brother-in-law Ren is coming. Before he goes to the North Fourth Ring Road, she will go downstairs to wait, just like conjoined twins."

Spring is really here.

The air is filled with the sour smell of love.

Not long after, Chen Yan came upstairs holding Ren Jie's arm.

"Hello uncle, hello aunt."

Ren Jie is unshaven and has a deep tiredness on his face. Compared with the image of a tree in the wind in the past, he is now a bit more haggard.

Shen Guofu asked curiously:

"Why are you so embarrassed? Wash your hands quickly and sit down to eat."

"I have been working on a serial case for several days, and now I have finally solved it."

Ren Jie went to the faucet at the door of the kitchen to wash his hands. When he came over, Chen Yan had already set out the dishes and was competing with Shen Jiayue for goose wings.

Han Shuzhen said:

"Don't just focus on work. You have to rest when you need it. The weather is getting warmer. Please spend more time with Xiaoyan."

"I will, aunt."

Tonight's staple food was braised pork ribs with rice. Lin Xu took a bite of the rice delivered by the truck driver and said to Shen Jiayue:

"I have to go to Diaoyutai tomorrow. Then you can take Dundun to Master Deng's place. Be careful not to let Dundun break his jade ornaments."

"Okay... are you going to Diaoyutai to prepare some delicious food?"

Lin Xu smiled:

"Learn how to make big lobster and Russian bald cakes. When I learn how to make them, I can teach you so that you can bake big lobster at home."

Chen Yan asked curiously:

"Is it the kind of bread with a lot of nutty texture, or the bread that looks dark, sour and hard?"

Lin Xu said:

"Actually, these are all called leba. In Russian, leba is originally the name of large bread. The common ones in our country are generally nut leba, which is improved with milk and honey and is more suitable for the taste of Chinese people. Russian leba It is fermented with beer and tastes sour and as hard as stone, so it is not suitable for us to eat."

The famous black bread in Russia during World War II was a type of Leba, and many people still like to eat it until now.

Of course, today's brown bread no longer has sawdust mixed in, but uses whole wheat or rye. Unlike during World War II, sawdust had to be added to the bread to barely satisfy the hunger.

Upon hearing this, Han Shuzhen said:

"Xiao Xu, can you make some of that black bread? Your dad and I plan to eat it at home. It will definitely have a good effect on losing fat. It's spring, so it's time to brush up on your body fat."

Shen Guofu: "!!!!!!!!!"

Wife, why did you suddenly think of this?

That black bread is harder than a brick. Can you bite it? Don't go back and chip your tooth. You still have to go to Wenshan's dental clinic for a check-up, which is really troublesome.

He desperately wanted to protest, but he didn't dare speak out.

Because once he protests at this time, it will not only strengthen Director Han's determination to eat black bread to lose weight, but also terminate his current drinking plan.

In desperation, Lao Shen had no choice but to drink all the wine in the glass.

The bitter wine enters the throat and the heart aches!

After a glass of wine, he gnawed on a piece of pig's trotters bitterly. While Han Shuzhen was still explaining to Lin Xu, he secretly poured himself a glass of white wine.

I hope the brown bread won’t be made so early so that our old Shen can enjoy it for two more days.

Once the bread is made, that kind of disaster day... Do I earn so much money just to eat bran vegetables again?

Ren Jie held the wine glass and clinked it with Shen Guofu:

"Why does uncle look unhappy?"

"No, I'm quite happy. I'm drinking a little wine, eating a little meat, and eating healthy and delicious black bread later. Thinking about it makes me laugh out loud with joy."

Han Shuzhen rolled her eyes at him:

"I gained six or seven pounds during the New Year. I need to lose some weight. Aren't you going to go horse riding in Yinzhou later? With this weight, don't overwhelm the horse."

Old Shen laughed dryly:

"Okay, okay, after Xiaoxu makes the black bread, we will start to lose weight. Not only will we eat black bread, but we will also ride a bicycle to the suburbs. We will try to lose 150 pounds by summer."

Everyone who is a boss knows how to draw a cake, and Lao Shen is no exception.

It doesn’t matter how far it can be reduced, let’s make my wife happy first.

After the meal, Chen Yan drove Ren Jie back. As for the Wrangler Ren Jie was driving, she would leave it here for the time being and make time to drive it again tomorrow.

You can't touch a car after drinking.

As for Shen Guofu, he didn't drive his own car. Instead, he got directly into Lin Xu's car and stayed at his son-in-law's house tonight instead of going back to the West Fourth Ring Road.

Lin Xu asked as he was about to drive back:

"What will you eat tomorrow morning?"

There are not all the ingredients at home. If there is not enough, you can still go upstairs to get it now.

Old Shen Wai said from the back seat:

"Xiao Xu, that chicken porridge..."

Before he finished speaking, Han Shuzhen next to him patted him:

"You've been thinking about eating meat so early in the morning, right?"

"No, I'm saying don't make that chicken porridge. It irritates your throat, makes you feel uncomfortable, and makes you cough after drinking it. It's better to eat white porridge and pickles."

Han Shuzhen smiled and was so glib in front of her son-in-law.

She said to Lin Xu:

"Let's make preserved egg and lean meat porridge, add some vegetables."

"Okay, let's go back then."

There are lean meats and vegetables in the car, and there are preserved eggs at home, so there is no need to get out of the car to get them.

After Lin Xu finished speaking, he started the car and drove home.

In the morning, as soon as he got up, Han Shuzhen called Shen Jiayue up, and the family of three went to the roof to exercise. Lin Xu started to cook porridge and cut preserved eggs. At the same time, following his father-in-law's hint, he made some noodles and prepared fried pancakes.

Shen Guofu likes to eat more fragrant food, especially knowing that he will have to eat black bread in the near future and regaining the Russian experience of World War II, he wants to eat more fried food.

Today's oil cake is not the sugar oil cake commonly made in Beijing, but the Central Plains method.

After squeezing out the air from the dough, roll it out, sprinkle with salt, five-spice powder, and oil like pancakes, and finally sprinkle with a layer of chopped green onion, then roll it up and divide it into individual pieces.

Then knead it, roll it out thinly again, cut twice in the middle and put it into the oil pan.

This kind of fried pancake is golden in color, crispy on the outside and noisy on the inside. When you take a bite, it has a rich onion aroma. This is what Chen Meijuan always did in the past.

The pancakes are fried and the porridge is ready.

Lin Xu scrambled some eggs with shredded onions and carrots, and paired them with the spicy cabbage, pickles, and kimchi that had been prepared a few days ago. It was another perfect meal.

Just after finishing these, Shen Guofu also came down from the stairs panting. He almost lost half of his life today by skipping rope and doing aerobics.

As I walked down the stairs, I always wanted to sit on the steps and rest for a while.

But after smelling the aroma of the oil cake, he immediately became motivated.

What a good son-in-law!

Really fried pancakes!

When he came downstairs, he washed his hands and couldn't wait to hold a piece of fried cake and taste it:

"This pancake is good, the green onion aroma is quite strong...I have to go to the South Third Ring Road later to bring some to the old lady. She was nagging about wanting to eat fried pancakes two days ago, but she was too lazy to do it..."

Han Shuzhen rolled up the sleeves of her sportswear, took a spoon and tasted the preserved egg and lean meat porridge:

"Why don't you make dumplings in the afternoon? Then I'll take the old lady over and let's eat some together."

"Okay, I'll just take a walk after get off work."

After Shen Guofu finished speaking, he muttered:

"Then you need to pack more. When the old lady comes, our sister will definitely come over to eat. She doesn't cook much now, so she just waits to eat and drink."

Now Chen Yan basically doesn't go home to eat, and wants to have three meals a day in the store. Chen Yuejin and his wife are also quite busy, and they don't eat at home often, let alone cook.

Han Shuzhen said:

"Come on, there are so many people here. If the child hadn't been too young, I would have wanted Wen Qing to come and eat. My niece is thinking of ways to eat delicious food every day. She will definitely like our dumplings."

Shi Wenqing's child is still young now, and when he gets older, he can take him around to play with.

Especially after summer, when children are seven or eight months old, they start to develop self-awareness and go out more often. The more they see new things, the more conducive it is to cultivating children's self-awareness.

Staying at home all the time will not do much good for your child's growth.

Lin Xu ate a piece of fried cake, drank a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, went to the living room and turned on the TV, letting Dundun watch it for a while.

The little guy's current interest has shifted from "Tom and Jerry" to "Bear Bears".

The reason is simple. Tom is always pranked by Jerry, which makes Dundun very annoyed. He has never seen such stupid people of the same kind.

So let’s watch other cartoons, out of sight, out of mind.

After Shen Guofu's family finished breakfast, he packed up the remaining pancakes, tidied up the kitchen, put on his clothes for going out, and went downstairs to leave.

Shen Jiayue drove her Continental GT to the West Second Ring Road. Lin Xu took his father-in-law and mother-in-law to the store first. After the couple left in the Bentley, they headed to Diaoyutai.

As soon as he arrived at Building 8, he met Qiu Zhenhua.

"Hello, Chef Qiu, is Mr. Qiu at home recently?"

"You're at home, are you okay, Master Lin?"

Lin Xu said:

"There's really something I want to discuss with his old man, but don't worry, just wait for me to pay a special visit one day."

The documentary "State Banquet" has not yet been approved as a project, so it is not appropriate to make it public.

However, according to the system task prompts, approval should be no problem, otherwise the system would not let me find twenty masters with national prefixes to participate.

Qiu Zhenhua didn't ask any more questions. Seeing Lin Xu preparing to turn into Building 8, he asked curiously:

"Are you here to see Lao Yuan?"

"Yes, he said he would make big cakes and bald cakes today. I came over to take a look and prepare to learn how to make them."

Qiu Zhenhua smiled:

"It's good to see it. If Lao Yuan keeps secrets for you, remember to find Yin Hongbin. There is also Lieba in the northwest region, and it is baked in the Nang pit."

oh?

Is there any backup plan?

Just as Lin Xuda was about to speak, Yuan Debiao's voice came from the flower pond not far away:

"Can you please don't say this in Building 8 next time? Lao Qiu, have you been led astray by Lao Dai and Lao Xie? What a refined person you are, actually saying such things behind your back."

He was squatting in the flower pond tending his small vegetable patch with a small hoe. When he saw Lin Xu's car approaching, he was about to get up and say hello when he heard Qiu Zhenhua arranging himself.

If Lin Xu hadn't been here, he would have really wanted to grab a hoe and ask Qiu Zhenhua what his purpose was, what his motive was, and who instigated him.

Qiu Zhenhua opened his mouth:

"Why are you squatting in the flower pond so early in the morning? Fortunately, Lao Dai is not here, otherwise I would have found you holding the water pipe to water the flowers... Let's talk. I will go to Building 10 first to ask Guo Weidong to borrow a suckling pig to make Qiankun roast. pig."

After saying that, he strode towards Building No. 10 along the sidewalk inside Diaoyutai.

Yuan Debiao came out of the flower pond with a small hoe, looked at Qiu Zhenhua's back, and muttered:

"I usually look thick-browed and big-eyed, but I didn't expect to be led astray by your senior brother so quickly. Not only did he badmouth me, but he also went to Building 10 to steal suckling pigs."

steal?

Lin Xu said:

"Chef Qiu is talking about borrowing."

"Every time your senior brother and Lao Dai take something from someone else, they say they are borrowing it...but he is going to make Qiankun roasted pig tonight, and I have to try it. I can't eat this dish normally."

The so-called Qiankun roast pig is actually stuffing the suckling pig's belly with high-end ingredients, such as sea cucumber, abalone, scallops, shark's fin, or pigeon and native chicken.

It is stuffed, sewn, and cooked in the roasted suckling pig style. It is a very classic high-end dish.

Yuan Debiao knocked the dirt off the hoe and said to Lin Xu:

"The kitchen should be starting soon now. Let's go and let you see how the northeastern version of Leba is made... This kind of Leba has a moderate sweetness and is not so hard, which is suitable for the dietary characteristics of our country."

Lin Xu parked the car in the parking space, remembered the task assigned by his mother-in-law, and asked curiously:

"Can you make some original version? It's the kind of dry and hard black bread. My parents-in-law want to try it, but they don't know how to make it..."

Yuan Debiao was stunned:

"Do you want to lose weight? If you want to lose weight, eating Leba is really good. It makes you feel full and digests slowly. You won't feel hungry for a long time after taking one tablet. If you drink too much water, you may feel full."

Brown bread is difficult to digest. Do not drink water just after eating it, otherwise it will easily swell and make you feel more uncomfortable.

"It will take several days to make this thing. You have to ferment it with beer and hops. First mix it with a little flour. After fermentation, mix it with the fermented flour again to form a batter. Continue the fermentation, and ferment it several times. Finally, make it into a semicircular dough cake larger than a basketball and bake it in the oven."

Is it so complicated?

Lin Xu suddenly felt a little sympathy for his father-in-law.

If you eat like this, let alone lose weight, it is very likely that your father-in-law will become a handsome man again.

he asked:

"Can I put some rich-tasting ingredients in it?"

"Okay, if you want it to have a soft texture, just put some honey in the last step. The more honey, the softer it will be. You can also add some dried fruits or something, it will taste good."

This is good.

With honey and dried fruits, I believe that my father-in-law can have a little more to look forward to on the road to losing weight, so that he will not lose confidence in the future and lose his fighting spirit.

Coming to the kitchen, Yuan Debiao put his hoe in the utility room, washed his hands carefully, and then took Lin Xu to a room at the end of the corridor.

Before he even walked out the door, Lin Xu was attracted by the sweet and milky aroma wafting from inside.

He stood at the door and looked inside. There was a huge bread oven built in the deepest part of the room, and various forms of bread, snacks, etc. were placed on the shelves on both sides.

There are long nut loaves full of dried fruits, round loaves, donuts, and caterpillar bread that I used to eat when I was a kid but can’t find it now...

Walking in here feels like entering a bakery.

Lin Xu was quite full from eating the pancakes, but now he felt the urge to eat some.

Especially those caterpillar buns smeared with white butter, which make people greedy just looking at them.

"Brother Lin, if you are hungry, just eat. Don't talk about you. Even Lao Dai and the others eat and take food every time they come here. They are more bandits than bandits."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xu did not refuse. He picked up a caterpillar bread and held it carefully in his hands.

Tear the bread with your hands, dip it in the butter and put it into your mouth. The softness of the bread and the sweetness of the butter constitute the ultimate delicious taste, much better than the butter bread bought on the street.

“This is so delicious!”

When he was a child, Lin Xu fantasized more than once about opening a bakery when he grew up and eating whatever he wanted. Now standing here, he finally felt like his wish had come true.

These breads are made from real ingredients, without any added flavors or colorings, and the butter is also imported. It is full of flavor and makes you feel an inexplicable sense of happiness when you eat it.

"How are you, Brother Lin?"

"It's delicious, so delicious... When will we start making Leba?"

"We'll start after you finish eating."

"okay!"
