Guan Yu felt that it was not good to disturb the two little people, so he quietly left again. Guan Yu felt that he simply would not go back, so Guan Yu went to patrol the camp again.

All the noodles are made into steamed buns. Next, it seems that they still need to be left for a while. This step is for... I don't know.

After leaving it for a period of time based on experience, Li Mengxi counted the steamed buns made and there were forty-nine in total.

Next, when everything was ready, Li Mengxi and Zhang Ning carefully placed the steamed buns on the wooden board and carried them to the stove.

There is a real earthen stove in the army, which is exactly the same as the earthen stoves of later generations. Li Mengxi found a construction team to build it a few days ago.

In addition to the necessary stove, steamer lid, etc., carpenters also made a set out of wooden strips.

The first time I steamed steamed buns, because I was not sure how big the steamed buns would be from a small bowl-sized dough, so to prevent sticking, Li Mengxi deliberately placed the dough balls wide open.

Fortunately, the military creations were rough and large, and the steamer was also huge. The dough balls were spread out very far apart, with large gaps in between. Even if they were full, there was still enough room for more than twenty of them.

After that, cover it, wrap the pot cover with linen cloth, and start to light the fire.

When steaming steamed buns, it won't be a big problem if you steam them for a long time. At most, the steamed buns will crack and won't affect the taste. However, if you steam them long enough, the steamed buns won't be crispy enough.

Therefore, based on this judgment, Li Mengxi decided to steam it for a longer time.

Once this time is decided to be longer, it will not be just a short while.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Mengxi was adding firewood to the stove, and the fire was very strong. He looked up at the steamer from time to time to see that there was no heat coming out, and the steamed buns were almost cooked.

, there should be steam evaporating.

After a period of time, about twenty minutes, or maybe more, Li Mengxi waited until the steam started to evaporate. He was afraid that the steaming time would not be enough, so he continued to heat it for a long time. Finally, he felt that it was almost done, so he immediately removed the firewood from the stove.

At this stage of steaming the steamed buns, there seems to be a waking up process, that is, after stopping the fire, do not lift the lid immediately and let the steamed buns slowly cool down.

What is this process for? Li Mengxi was at a loss.

After waiting patiently for a while, Li Mengxi asked the wounded soldier who was watching the excitement to come over and lift the lid of the pot.

The moment Li Mengxi opened the lid and saw the steamed buns, everyone else was happy.

Oh my god, the steamed steamed buns are so big that they are a piece of dough as big as a bowl. They are as big as a plate. They are bigger than a human head. They are super giant steamed buns.

Li Mengxi smiled happily.

This was the first steamed bun to be steamed, and he didn’t know how it tasted. Li Mengxi couldn’t wait to take a bite of the big steamed bun. The steamed bun was still very hot, burning both his hands and mouth. After taking a bite and chewing twice, Li Mengxi frowned, too

Sour.

It cannot be said that it is so sour that it cannot be swallowed, but it is different from the taste of the steamed buns in Li Mengxi's impression. The steamed buns in his impression should be slightly sweet. Even if the noodles are not good and the steamed buns are a little sour, it should be just

Slightly sour, sour and sweet.

Unlike the steamed buns now, they have a very sour taste.

Li Mengxi immediately wondered, was it the noodles or the leaven that was bad?

But whether it's the flour or the leaven, there's nothing I can do to try it. There isn't much white flour in the army, and there's only one kind of leaven.

"Brother, let me have a bite!" Xiao Zhuan hugged Li Mengxi's legs and looked at the white steamed buns eagerly, almost drooling.

Li Mengxi lowered his head and looked at Xiao Bian, and then glanced at the group of greedy children surrounding him. He simply broke the steamed bun in his hand into many pieces, stuffed one piece for Xiao Bian, and gave the rest to each of the children.

A big steamed bun was divided in an instant. Li Mengxi went to get another one and continued to divide it.

There were so many children that after a while, there was only one left in the pot of steamed buns.

Li Mengxi said to the children who were eating the steamed buns with the buns in their hands and still refused to leave and wanted to ask for more, "No more. Let's try the next one."

With that said, Li Mengxi picked up the last big steamed bun, walked over with a smile and handed it to Zhang Ning.

Zhang Ning happily took the oversized steamed bun and took a small bite.

Li Mengxi asked, "Sister Ning, is it delicious?"

Zhang Ning nodded vigorously.

Li Mengxi smiled.

Steamed buns are a novel food. The children who were given steamed buns ran and jumped excitedly with the steamed buns. The steamed buns that Li Mengxi thought were too sour tasted slightly sweet to the children, and

Very soft and delicious, a rare delicacy.

Some parents of children also tasted some steamed buns, and the adults thought they were delicious.

Next, Li Mengxi steamed all the remaining steamed buns, and moved the steamed buns to the pot while they were still hot, filling half a basket.

it's dark.

Li Mengxi carried half a basket of steamed buns back to the city lord's palace, but Guan Yu was nowhere to be seen in the city lord's palace.

Li Mengxi and his younger brother each shared half of the steamed buns and ate them until they were full. Guan Yu came back from outside in the dark.

Li Mengxi asked curiously, "General Guan, why did you come back so late?"

Guan Yu just laughed and didn't answer.

Li Mengxi took a slightly warm steamed bun from the basket to Guan Yu and said that this was the steamed bun mentioned before, which is made from fermented pasta and then steaming it.

The boss's steamed bun was as big as a plate. Guan Yu picked it up and bit into it in one bite.

Then Guan Yu swallowed the steamed bun in two or two mouthfuls, and took another big mouthful. Seeing Guan Yu take a few bites, Li Mengxi asked curiously, "General Guan, is this steamed bun delicious?"

Guan Yu nodded repeatedly, and because of the steamed buns stuffed in his mouth, he said with a smile, "It's soft and delicious, sour and sweet, delicious!"

While eating, Guan Yu laughed and teased Li Mengxi, "Zhang Ning will help you. The steamed buns are ready. Do you want to invite others to eat?"

Li Mengxi looked at Guan Yu strangely, "Of course!"

Guan Yu laughed happily.

Li Mengxi was even more surprised. He didn't know what was so funny about Guan Yu.

This is the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month in the seventh year of Emperor Guanghe of the Eastern Han Dynasty, New Year's Eve.

On this night in Luoyang, civil and military officials and the emperor were celebrating all night, drinking and drinking. The powerful and wealthy people in the world were supposed to be killing pigs and sheep to celebrate with their families, but the rebels did not do anything to celebrate.

Zhang Yide was far away hunting and raising food. At night, Zhang Yide was freezing to death in the ice and snow. He was keeping vigil around the bonfire with his hands folded in his hands to be on guard against a sneak attack by hungry wolves. Liu Xuande was far away in Zhuozhou. He had not finished inspecting the farmland and was heading down all night.

Jian Yong was rushing to work in the fields; Jian Yong wanted to go to Youzhou prefect Liu Yu with money to buy grain and grass, so he hurried all night on New Year's Eve; Li Mengxi ate half of the steamed bun, Guan Yu ate two in a row, and they drank

After pouring some water, the two of them set up the chessboard while it was still early in the night, and seriously tried to capture and kill each other, hoping to learn more about Han Xin's tactics of war from chess.

It was a good New Year's Eve, the first New Year's Eve after the Yellow Turban War. We should have gathered together to eat meat and drink wine to celebrate, but the rebels were divided into pieces. They were busier than usual, and there was no moment.

Have some time to spare.
