Gu Fei nodded: “Yes, the dry ones can be planted directly, or soaked in water before planting.”

When the aunt in the community planted peppers, she grabbed a handful of seeds and scattered them in the soil. She squatted beside and watched, and asked questions with interest, all of which were told to her by the aunt.

Gu Zhang nodded: “That’s good.”

Gu Fei peeled for a while and took out the various seasonings in the space, which would be useful later.

At this time, Lian’er’s voice came from outside: “Miss Xiao Fei, Liu Zhuangtou said that Young Master Zhu sent someone to ask, can we leave now?”

Gu Fei shouted: “I’m coming out right now!”

As she said that, she quickly took a bag and packed the peeled peppers.

Gu Zhang also stood up: “Dad will go with you.”

“Dalang will go too.”

Mrs. Chen nodded: “Okay, you go, and the others will continue to peel.”

The three of them walked out, and Gu Fei called Lian’er again. They were going to cook later, and Lian’er could help her and save time.

Gu Zhang thought that Young Master Zhu and his men rode horses, so he borrowed the horse of the manor, harnessed his carriage, and drove out of the manor.

Young Master Zhu was waiting outside the manor. When he saw them, he nodded, whipped his horsewhip, and set off.

It took an incense stick of time to enter the South City Gate, and not long after that, the carriage stopped.

This street was extremely prosperous, with people coming and going on the street.

When Gu Fei got off the carriage, she saw a three-story restaurant with a black plaque with gold edges in the middle, with three large gilded characters on it, “Yipin Pavilion”.

When the shopkeeper saw Young Master Zhu, the owner, he hurried out to greet him. Young Master Zhu threw his whip and pointed at Gu Fei: “I invited this girl to cook.”

“Take her to the back kitchen. She can take whatever ingredients she wants.”

The shopkeeper nodded and took Gu Fei to the back kitchen. Lian’er hurriedly followed.

Young Master Zhu extended his hand and made a gesture of invitation: “Second Master Gu, come upstairs for tea.”

Gu Zhang and Gu Qing followed Young Master Zhu upstairs.

Gu Fei entered the kitchen, and the kitchen of Yipin Pavilion opened her eyes.

There were more than 10 to 20 stoves alone, and in the middle was a huge chopping board with various ingredients piled on it.

Many helpers were cutting and washing vegetables, and some stoves were stewing or steaming things.

The shopkeeper said to the chef, Old Zhang: “The Young Master let this girl cook a few dishes. Just let her take whatever she needs.”

He called a teenager over: “Help her.”

Old Zhang looked at Gu Fei calmly. What kind of dishes can a little girl cook? Haha, just wait and see.

Gu Fei walked to the chopping board, reached out took a gutted chicken, and said to Lian’er: “I only want chicken breast,” she gestured with her hands, “cut it into dices this big.”

Lian’er nodded, took a knife, and started to work.

Then Gu Fei took another rabbit and handed it to the boy: “Just chop it into pieces.”

Then Gu Fei took another fish and dealt with it herself.

She cut off the fish head, removed the fish bones, and then cut the fish meat into slices, adding salt, cooking wine, and starch to marinate.

After heating the oil pan, she added chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns, then put the fish head and bones in and stir-fried, then added ginger, garlic, and chili peppers to continue stir-frying. For a while, the kitchen was filled with spicy smoke, and many people choked and coughed.

Gu Fei called the helper again: “Do you have broth? Bring me a big bowl of broth.”

The helper quickly brought a bowl of broth. Gu Fei saw that the fish head was almost cooked, poured the broth into the pot, covered the lid, and let it boil.

She looked around, grabbed another handful of peanuts, and asked Lian’er to peel them.

Then she fried the peanuts in a pan.

After a while, the peanuts were fried, and she scooped them out and put them aside.

Then she started to make spicy chicken cubes.
