Chapter 435 Rooftop Lifted
Xu Yi nodded, "You can make your own decisions."
After saying that, she slightly seasoned the salted meat, which was cut into pieces the size of coral rice.
I made a flaky pastry by mixing a little salt, flour, and hot oil.
Then take out the kneaded mung bean dough from the lid, divide it into equal-sized small portions, flatten them, spread oil paste on them, and fold them repeatedly.
"What are you doing?" Yunniang stared in disbelief.
When she was with her previous employer, her favorite thing to do was to make all kinds of pastries, so she could tell at a glance that Xu Yiyi was going to make pastries.
But this is the first time I've seen someone do something like this.
I was a little curious for a moment.
"Make salted pork and mung bean cakes."
As Xu Yiyi spoke, she stuffed the kneaded ghee dough with salted meat and wrapped it up quickly.
It's dazzling to look at.
After all the pancakes were wrapped, she brushed them with oil and put them directly into the oven.
They started roasting the duck using the remaining bits of charcoal.
About fifteen minutes later, the mung bean cakes baked in the oven were golden and crispy.
When you pinch it open, you see that the layers melt away with a single touch.
The crust is crispy but not hard, and when you bite into it, a burst of hot air fills your mouth, and the rich flavor of salted meat, the sweetness of mung beans, and the soft glutinous rice unfold in your mouth one after another.
Wu Yuan sat on the small bed and clearly felt the impact of the mung bean cake.
Its nose is all wrinkled up; it looks so tempting.
"Try it."
As Xu Yiyi spoke, she used a long-handled shovel to scoop out the mung bean cakes and place them on a wooden tray.
Yunniang tried one and her eyes lit up: "Delicious!"
Fatty Wang has a big mouth, and he ate several in one go.
Xu Yiyi scooped all the flatbreads out of the oven, carried them back to the kitchen, found a box, picked out seven or eight, covered them, and went out.
……
When I went out, the sky was clear and sunny, but when I came back, the weather had changed completely.
As soon as I entered the house, large raindrops began to fall instantly.
"What kind of weather is this? It just rained heavily last night and we haven't even recovered yet, and now it's raining again..."
Xu Pinghai cursed under his breath, then got up and carried Wu Yuan's small bed back into the room.
"The wind is very strong, even stronger than yesterday."
Xu Yiyi looked up at the clothes that were being blown into the air.
The owner of the clothes could still be heard cursing outside.
The rain was pouring down and the wind was howling; in the blink of an eye, you could no longer hear the people around you talking.
Xu Yiyi, along with Sihai and Wuyuan, huddled in the room. The window frames rattled as if they were about to fall apart.
Suddenly, there was a crisp, rustling sound.
She hurriedly went out of the house to look, and saw several pieces of black broken tile mixed with debris falling straight down from the eaves.
"Old Lu, didn't you put a net on the roof of the kitchen?"
Xu Yiyi paused for a moment before speaking.
Old Lu pouted as he pondered, "Didn't I cover it up?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Lu gave an awkward laugh.
"It seemed like there was smoke coming from the kitchen all the time. I covered it halfway up but it was too choking, so I came down."
Xu Yiyi shook her head helplessly and walked from under the eaves to the kitchen, sheltering from the rain.
After going inside, thankfully it was only a small part.
She asked Lao Lu and Xu Pinghai to move the shelf in the leaking area.
Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Xu Anyang started shouting again.
"Sister Yi, come out and see quickly."
Xu Anyang stood to the side, staring at the osmanthus tree.
In the past, when the wind and waves were calm, this osmanthus tree was so dignified and graceful.
At this moment, however, it was like a person who was bound, struggling in the wind.
The dense, cloud-like tree canopy was twisted and twirled wildly by the sea breeze.
"Is this tree going to fall?"
