Chapter 283: Pot-tossing Competition



Chapter 283: Pot-tossing Competition

These two people were not afraid of what had just happened.

Yang Yongyan had seen this before: when people in the team killed people, there was real bloodshed, not just intimidation.

Yang Yongxing was simply a hot-blooded teenager who had a blind admiration for people with high fighting power.

Along the way, everyone started talking about what delicious food to make for noon.

Several of the women were even shouting that they wanted to send some delicious food to Lu Qingqing as a reward.

Lu Qingqing listened to their conversation and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously.

What should her family cook for lunch?

I still have a lot of dried dates that I bought before, so why not steam some brown sugar and jujube flower buns to eat?

Thinking about the soft and tasty date buns she had eaten before, Lu Qingqing felt a little greedy.

After returning to the house, she took out brown sugar, dried dates and old dough starter from the space.

After kneading the dough with brown sugar water, add old dough starter and let it rise.

Qin Lang was removing the pits from dried dates. As he was picking out the pits, he asked curiously:

"Daya, are you going to make some snacks?"

Lu Qingqing added water to the pot and said without turning her head:

"It's not a snack, it's a sweet bun. I'll put dates in it later."

It was the first time that Qin Lang saw steamed buns made with brown sugar and dried dates, and he was very curious about it.

Of course, it’s not that people here don’t know how to make it, it’s simply too luxurious to steam buns with brown sugar.

These days, farmers only drink a small amount of brown sugar water.

If other people in the village saw Lu Qingqing using brown sugar like this, they would probably say she was a spendthrift!

Lu Qingqing sighed once again that the silly husband she married was not bad.

If she had married a normal man, he would have stopped her long ago. He would never have tolerated such a "troublesome" thing as her.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingqing turned around and smiled at Qin Lang:

"The flower-shaped jujube buns will be out soon. Try them, they're delicious!"

When Qin Lang heard her say it was delicious, he swallowed his saliva, nodded vigorously, and the movement of picking out the date pits with his hands became much faster.

After the dough has risen, Lu Qingqing kneads it to release the air.

After kneading it, he poured in the dates prepared by Qin Lang.

After kneading the dates, roll the dough into long strips.

Unscrew a dosing pin with one hand and leave it alone, placing the connector facing upwards.

After all the dough pieces were unscrewed, they were slightly rolled up, some brown sugar was sprinkled on top, and then placed in a pot of warm water to rise for a while.

When the jujube flower buns were steamed, Lu Qingqing opened the lid of the pot and the whole house was filled with fragrance.

The red date buns in the pot are fluffy and soft, with steamed date meat mixed in the cracks on top.

She didn't care about the heat, grabbed a big steamed bun, broke off a small piece and tasted it.

The rich aroma of dates and wheat blends perfectly, and the date meat is soft, glutinous and sweet. Lu Qingqing nodded as she ate it.

At this time, Qin Lang, who was burning the fire, had already stretched his neck and was waiting.

He was so anxious that his nostrils flared as he tried to inhale more of the aroma as he couldn't get the food.

Lu Qingqing found it funny and took out a piece of washed and dried corn husk from the space, wrapped it in a date bun and handed it to him.

Qin Lang took a big bite and gave Lu Qingqing a thumbs up while eating.

After this pot of jujube flower steamed buns came out of the pot, the two of them steamed three more pots in a row.

During this time, Li Rui and others came over smelling the fragrance.

We grabbed the hot steamed buns right out of the pot and each person ate at least three.

Seeing that the pot of steamed buns was almost gone, he was shameless for once and went back to get some smoked pork.

When Lu Qingqing saw this, she fried the bacon and added a few other dishes to make a large table.

Qin Lang invited his master and his mistress over, and a large table of people ate happily.

Bored after dinner, Li Rui and his friends suggested playing a game of pitching pots.

He and Qu Hong gave a simple demonstration and successfully attracted a group of fellow disciples.

Their game of pitching pots is naturally not as sophisticated as the one played by the nobles.

It's just a simple game of taking a narrow-mouthed jar and having each person throw an arrow into it. Each arrow that lands counts as one point.

Each person has ten arrows, and the one with the most points wins.

The rules of the game are simple and everyone can understand them immediately.

The master and his wife also found it interesting and each of them offered a prize.

The master's wife offered a pair of fur boots and promised to make another pair for whoever won the first prize.

The master produced a dagger, the craftsmanship of which was quite good.

I heard that it was bought at a huge price and Tu Rong and others have been coveting it for a long time.

When he heard that his master was going to take it out as a prize, he suddenly became excited.

Li Rui raised his head proudly: "My fellow brothers, junior brothers, and junior sisters, I am determined to get this dagger!"

Tu Rong was not to be outdone: "Little Li Rui, I've been asking Master for this dagger for a long time. I'm going to get it today, so forget it!"

Li Rui turned his head away in dissatisfaction. This senior brother was unreasonable and he would not argue with a hooligan.

When he turned his head, he saw the date buns that Lu Qingqing had placed aside.

This flower date steamed bun is really delicious. Li Rui rolled his eyes and said:

"Daya, Master has already made a jackpot, so I think we should all make a jackpot too.

I'll offer you another piece of bacon, and you can offer nothing else but some jujube buns!"

The other brothers immediately understood what he meant and responded.

Lu Qingqing naturally nodded in agreement. She had steamed several extra pots of steamed buns and was going to give some to them.

Now, with the bonus, it’s even more fun!

Everyone went back to the house, took the prize money, and officially started the competition.

The master and his wife were the referees for this competition, with fellow disciples competing against each other.

The first to appear was the eldest brother Luo Zhengye. Brother Luo’s face was just like his name, a standard decent appearance.

If I were to act, my acting range would be very limited and I could only play decent roles.

Senior Brother Luo stood outside the line and threw the first arrow with a very calm expression.

Wow, from aiming before throwing the arrow to after throwing the arrow, the expression on his face remains unchanged.

The demeanor of a complete master!

If we don’t look at the results but only at the performance, then Senior Brother Luo is undoubtedly the number one!

The first arrow missed, the second arrow missed, and it was not until the seventh arrow that he finally hit the target.

It was visibly evident that Senior Brother Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

He was also very nervous. As the eldest brother, it would be really embarrassing if he missed a single arrow!

When the ten arrows were finished, Brother Luo had a total of 2 points.

Next was the second senior brother Chai Quan. Senior Brother Chai’s performance was not as calm as Senior Brother Luo’s.

After missing several arrows in a row, Senior Brother Chai became anxious.

He even began to suspect that the arrows distributed to him were not normal.

After all ten arrows were thrown and three of them were caught, Senior Brother Chai's expression looked better.

It’s enough to be better than the eldest brother, at least I’m not at the bottom.

Soon, it was the sixth senior brother Li Rui’s turn.

Li Rui had secretly tried it many times on the side, and he hit the target with the first arrow.

This was a big deal. He jumped three feet high and rushed over to hug his master's arm.

"Master, did you see that? I hit the target with my first arrow. Hahahaha, I'm the undisputed winner today!"

Several senior brothers rolled their eyes, reached out to pull him back, and continued to shoot.

After missing two arrows in a row, Li Rui wiped his sweat nervously.
