After all, they had sold the meat to the Wet Nurse Bai two or three times, so they had become friends.
Prompt, Ning Yan already indicated.
If Wet Nurse Bai didn't trust her, Ning Yan would have no choice but to lower her head and stare at the water tank. If she didn't, then it would be good, she could buy so many squid by herself.
and then fry it, fry it, barbecue it...
The squid doesn't taste any worse than beef as long as it has a handle on the heat and the practice.
Hearing Ning Yan's words, Wet Nurse Bai's face revealed a complex expression, and she asked: "Lady Ning, have you eaten this before?"
"Yes, I have." Ning Yan nodded.
Wet Nurse Bai did not know what she was thinking, but her face turned green.
Zhou Quan saw the opportunity and said: "Right, right, right, we can eat. Wet Nurse Bai, how about this, you bring the squid back to the house and let this Young Lady taste it."
Resistance flashed across Wet Nurse Bai's face. She was not the only one who was in charge of matters in the palace, there was no telling how many people were watching her and looking for her fault.
The fact that she was in charge of the purchase business was coveted by many, and she couldn't afford to slack off for a while.
Ning Yan turned her head to look at Zhou Quan. Seeing that Zhou Quan was itching to send the squid back to Bai Family, he suddenly realized that Zhou Quan did not know how to eat the squid properly either.
They were afraid that the Wet Nurse Bai would not want this box of squid, and would still use her name. She was truly a villainous person, a clever villain who anyone would dare to use.
However, Zhou Quan's words were also very reasonable.
"Grandma, I'll cook a fried squid for you. You can try it first. If you feel that the taste isn't right or you aren't used to it, then I'll buy all of these squid. I definitely won't make it difficult for you."
"Alright!" Wet Nurse Bai clenched her teeth and agreed.
If it was only Zhou Quan, she would definitely not dare to agree to it, but right now, Lady Ning had already said that she was hungry, and the danger had already been averted. Just using the kitchen was not a big deal.
The Wet Nurse Bai called for two servants to help him carry the water tank to the kitchen. Ning Yan followed the Wet Nurse Bai to the kitchen.
As for Zhou Quan, he slipped away after getting the money from Wet Nurse Bai. Seeing Zhou Quan's actions, Wet Nurse Bai almost bit off the new set of golden teeth in his mouth.
Ning Yan walked into the kitchen and put down the basket on her back.
After washing his hands, he took out a squid from the water tank and began to dispose of the useless parts of the squid.
"Grandma, why did you bring all these weird things into the residence again? If the people from Eldest Young Madam's side find out, wouldn't that mean that the Second Madam's butler was unkind?"
"It's the Cui'er, what are you doing in the kitchen when you're not by your wife's side at this time? When she wakes up, you can't find anyone, but you have to be punished."
"Look at what the mama said. Our wife isn't the kind of woman who doesn't appreciate servants. On the other hand, you can't rely on your wife's trust to get so many useless things from the mansion."
The words that Cui'er and Wet Nurse Bai said continuously reached Ning Yan's ears.
Ning Yan shook her head, sighing in her heart that the rich and dirty were indeed very reasonable.
It was only two squid, but it could cause a battle between women.
Fortunately, Ning Yan's mental fortitude was good, the Wet Nurse Bai and the Cui'er outside were opposing each other tit for tat. The helper at the side was trembling uncontrollably.
Only Ning Yan was completely unaffected, after dealing with the squid she started to mix the sauce.
Cut the squid and keep it ready. Cut the mushrooms and bamboo shoots. Place scallion, ginger, leek, and dogwood in front of the skillet.
After slicing the squid, they had to be boiled in water for a while. The white oil was placed in the pot and melted under the high temperature. The scallion, ginger, and garlic were placed in the oil for stir-frying.
Wet Nurse Bai and Cui'er who were berating each other stopped and turned their heads at the same time to look at the kitchen, their gazes landing on Ning Yan.
"It's just that the seasonings are good, our cook can also cook this kind of food."
"But our cook can't turn trash into treasure. Just you wait, a little girl like you can't even imagine the delicacy of a squid." Wet Nurse Bai had never eaten a squid that tasted authentic, but this did not stop her from feigning that she knew everything.
Ning Yan continued to stir-fry, and poured the sliced squid into the wok.
He picked up the iron pot and flipped it twice, simultaneously pouring the mushrooms and bamboo shoots into the pot. He scooped up a spoonful of sauce and mixed it with the squid in the wok, stir-fried it twice, and the squid left the wok.
"Wet Nurse Bai, try it." Ning Yan carried the plate and walked to the front of Wet Nurse Bai. The squid that had just come out of the wok emitted a fresh smell of seafood.
Wet Nurse Bai tried her best to get the squid out of her brain, and put a squid whisker into her mouth with her chopsticks.
Wet Nurse Bai, who had only read a few words, widely opened her eyes and repeatedly said, "Delicious! Delicious!"
Then, he said, "Lady Ning, how do you know what a squid is? This thing is a barbarian from the southeast."
"Eat on the mountain. There are so many wild game in the mountain, and the way to eat is also different. If you try it out, you will be able to find a suitable way to eat."
"Lady Ning is indeed not an ordinary person." The Wet Nurse Bai sighed, she originally only thought of Ning Yan as a woman in the mountain, but now that she had eaten the squid, he did not dare underestimate Ning Yan anymore.
To be able to turn a strange object that everyone despised into a delicacy, one might even possess other abilities. In the future, it might be even more useful. Thus, his attitude became even better.
Cui'er stared at the squid on the plate for a while, but seeing that Ning Yan was not paying attention to her, she snorted and walked towards the courtyard.
"Actually, squid have a lot of ways to do it. Momo, you can let the cook study it."
"You're right. In the future, we have to keep an eye on these lazy guys. They are making good things unbearable."
"That's right, mama. It's rare for squid to taste so good. If it were in a restaurant …"
"Lady Ning's words are reasonable." Wet Nurse Bai's eyes lit up.
Recently, the Second Madam had just taken over her family's affairs. Whether it was the entrance and exit of the residence or the restaurants outside, they were all very worried, especially the restaurants outside which were half-dead.
Now that he had the squid, Wet Nurse Bai's eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Lady Ning, you rest here for a while, I will go see Second Madam."
"En!" Ning Yan nodded and sat in the small pavilion in front of the kitchen and waited for Wet Nurse Bai to reply.
Other than wanting to get on good terms with the so called Second Madam, she was also thinking of taking the squid from Zhou Quan's hands.
Hunting in the mountains all day for money was certainly not possible.
But she could open a barbecue shop in the town, and barbecue also required special features. Once the squid in Bai Family Restaurant gained fame, with just this little bit of friendship, she could take the goods from Zhou Quan and earn a little bit of money.
As long as she was not a fool, the Second Young Madam of the Bai Clan would not reject her request.
After all, the location of the restaurant's dishes were different from her barbecue shop. It was unlikely for her opening a barbecue shop to hinder the business of the Bai Family Restaurant.
