C20 Spicy Gluten

On the wooden table were bamboo, fragrant leaves, octagonal, cinnamon, ginger, cumin powder, sesame seeds, chili powder, sugar and water. Helian Qi rubbed his chin and pondered.

Helian Zhen looked at it for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out. She held her head up and asked, "Brother, do you need so many things to make spicy gluten?"

"Yes." Helian Qi nodded with a serious expression.

Seeing how the crowd was acting, Helian Zhen stuck out her tongue. She didn't dare to ask any further, afraid of interrupting their train of thought.

"Forget it, I'll just make it for you guys to taste." Helian Qi smiled. Why would he want to do that? Things can't be sold even if they haven't come out yet.

Helian Zhen and Helian Xue cheered. Something made from so many ingredients must be delicious!

Helian Chu frowned, but didn't say anything in the end.

"Shu, use hot water to soak the bamboo. "Chu, go pick some spring onion and bring it back. Zhen and Xiaoxue, help ignite the flame. Mother …" Helian Qi looked at the eager Qi Yue and smiled, "Sit and wait."

Qi Yue's face fell. "Is there anything else?" In the past, she was busy as a top, but now that she was free, she felt uneasy.

Helian Qi pushed him onto the chair and said in a childish tone, "Mom, you have to behave, I'll go stir-fry the sesame seeds."

Qi Yue was amused by his tone. "Alright then. Let me make some corn."

"No need, just sit here. There are still six catties of fragrant melon seeds left, continue eating." Helian Qi took the melon seeds he bought and gave them to her.

"This... "Isn't that good?" Qi Yue hugged the melon seeds helplessly.

"What's wrong with that? "Be obedient." Helian Qi emphasized the last two words. Qi Yue swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth, and silently ate the melon seeds. "That's more like it."

Helian Qi rolled up his sleeves and washed his hands to dry. It was his favorite spicy gluten, so he was a little excited when he thought about it.

As he worked, he hummed a small tune, enjoying life.

"Yes, what should we do next?" Helian Shu came back and said.

Helian Qi replied without turning his head, "I ate the seeds together with mom."

"Oh …" "Hmm?" The corner of Helian Shu's mouth twitched. She didn't hear wrong?

"Just wait till you guys finish eating the melon seeds. That should be enough."

Helian Shu looked at Qi Yue, who waved the melon seeds in her hand at her.

The two of them sat in a row, eating melon seeds.

"Brother, the spring onion has been picked and washed. Do you want to cut it?" Helian Chu asked as she grabbed a handful of scallions.

Helian Qi was still stir-frying sesame seeds, "Just put it in the pot. Go and eat the seeds with Mother and Shu."

"Huh?" Helian Chu looked at the two of them in a daze.

The two of them waved at her. Come here.

Helian Chu put down the scallions and sat with the others in a row, eating melon seeds.

Helian Zhen and Helian Xue were very proud. Look! They can help.

"The fire won't be extinguished immediately, right?" Helian Qi suddenly asked.

Helian Zhen said proudly, "I don't know how. I can burn half the time needed to brew a cup of tea."

"You two go and eat the melon seeds. I'll be fine."

"Huh?"

Helian Xue whispered, "What about after the time it takes to brew a cup of tea?"

Helian Qi smiled, "I still know how to add firewood. It's just that I don't know how to start. Be good."

The twins had to join the three-way group and sit in a row, eating the seeds while staring at him.

How skillful...

As the fragrance wafted over, the five of them almost forgot about the melon seeds in their hands.

The food was spicy, so no pepper was added. In the future, when he made it with beef tendons noodles, he could add some points to it, but he still preferred the spicy taste.

"What's that smell?" His voice was slightly shrill and somewhat ear-piercing.

Qi Yue and the others all looked towards the courtyard. The green-robed woman twisted her waist and looked around, her eyes filled with disdain.

"Mom, who is it?" I don't think I've seen it before? Helian Shu frowned, her fists itching. It was clear that he was no good person …

Qi Yue put down the melon seeds in her hands and said indifferently, "Your Second Aunt's elder sister."

Helian Chu thought for a moment and said, "Did you come because Big Brother injured Second Aunt's brain?"

"Does she have a brain?" Helian Shu curled her lips.

It was rare for Qi Yue to not scold them for being rude to her elders. Ever since that day, she did not have any good feelings towards her relatives. Seeing that they were in trouble, not only did she not help, she even wanted to sell her child!

Endure for so long was enough, she was not a good-natured person, it was just that she had to temper herself in these few years.

"To see what she wants." Qi Yue dusted off the melon seeds on her body, tidied up her clothes, straightened her back and left the room.

Helian Qi took a glance and realized that it wasn't time for him to go on stage yet.

Fry the bamboo until golden and scoop out the controlled oil. Add the oil to the wok, add the onion, ginger, fragrant leaves, star anise and cinnamon, then fry until fragrant, then fish out the oil.

Add cumin powder, chili powder, fried sesame seeds, some soy sauce, salt and sugar, and add water.

Helian Qi boiled the spicy gluten to its brightest. After the spicy gluten was boiled, he fried it evenly and then collected the juice.

Familiar formula, familiar fragrance... After smelling for a while, Helian Qi put the spicy gluten he made into a bowl and covered it with the lid of the pot. The noise outside was getting louder and louder. He frowned and went out with the spoon.

"Mom, who is this person?" Helian Qi sized up the woman. He looked a little familiar.

Qi Yue snorted coldly, "Your second aunt's elder sister, Aunt Lian."

"Oh, you came to visit?" Helian Qi stood beside Qi Yue. He was thin and tall, and when he was expressionless, he looked like that.

Lian Qing sneered, "Do you think I would be willing to come over to this crappy courtyard of yours? A visit? Heh … It was you, little bastard, who gave Rong'er so much of a headache? "

"She looked him up and down, lifted her chin, and looked at him with loathing." It's said that ugly people do more mischief. I've finally experienced it. "

Helian Qi saw that she seemed to be deep in thought and agreed, "I have indeed witnessed it."

Seeing him staring at her, Lian Qing's eyes spouted fire as he pointed and scolded: "Little bastard! How dare you call me ugly if you don't take a piss? Since you have a mother and no father to raise, I'll properly take care of you for your father today! "

Helian Qi scratched his ears and said carelessly, "Mom, sisters, tell her who is ugliest."

The five of them shouted in unison, "She!"

"Aunt Lian, right?" Helian Qi smiled and said, "Looks like not only do you have a bad eye, you also have some problems with your brain. I suggest you go to the clinic first and then come back. We don't welcome people with mental disabilities here, nor do we welcome relatives who are here to beat the crap out of us."

Lian Qing's eyes turned cold and a yellow tail swung over without warning.

Helian Qi turned his body to the side to hide behind Qi Yue. Six white fox tails, two attacking, and the other protecting the five children.

Lian Qing's eyes widened. Yellow fur grew out of his face, and his teeth were sharp. A beast head appeared.

"Wow — so it's a weasel. No wonder he went through every opening." Helian Qi wasn't worried at all that Qi Yue couldn't beat him.

"I'll kill you!" The blue flames blotted out the sky as they approached.

Qi Yue's brows creased as she hurriedly pulled back her tail to protect him. He was too careless. Without sufficient preparation, how could he have come over?
