Chapter five hundred and forty-five
Over the years, the master has always kept the environment clean when cooking here. He was a person who cared about the kitchen very much during his lifetime. Because his cooking skills are also inherited from the lineage of upholding the integrity, he has always taken care of whether it is the ingredients or the environment for cooking.
But as soon as I came in, I saw those charred dishes, the charred pots, and the leaves around the stove. To be honest, I felt angry at that time. Now Xian'er was whining beside me again. I couldn't suppress my anger and glared at her fiercely: "Go out!"
When Xian'er saw me glaring, she became annoyed on the spot: "Zuo Youdao what do you mean? Didn't I see you have been busy all day and want to help you? What's your tone?"
I pointed to the cabinet and said, "Help me? Don't you know if you can cook. Do you let my brothers eat that kind of food? Xian'er, it's your business that you usually like to make trouble, but don't make trouble at Jihun Village. Do you know how many people are waiting to eat? There are only so many ingredients, you make it like this..."
Before I could finish speaking, Xian'er started yelling again: "Why am I making trouble? Why am I making trouble for you? I just want to make a meal? What are you doing!"
Luo Fei came up and pulled Xian'er's arm, trying to persuade her to go out, but she pushed Luo Fei away and threw a handful of vegetables on my face, and shouted: "Zuo Youdao, tell me clearly!"
I was also annoyed: "Tell me a egg! If you have the ability, you will eat all the dishes you cook!"
Originally, I was just arguing with Xian'er, but at that time I was so angry that I also involved Luo Fei: "Luo Fei, and you, she made the vegetables like this, if you don't pull her out, you will still make trouble with her!"
Actually, I also know that with Xian'er's temperament, she decided to cook. Luo Fei would definitely not be able to persuade her, but I just had nowhere to get angry, so whoever I caught was counted.
Such quarrel alarmed Master Xia and the others. Master Xia and Master Zhao came in, Brother Zhuang and Brother Feng came in, Brother Geng and Xiao Renya also came in, and the small kitchen accommodated so many people at once and became overcrowded.
Master Xia and Master Zhao advised me that Xian'er was kind, and Senior Brother Zhuang also tasted the dish that was fried by Xian'er, and said it was better than it looked with a conscience. Xiao Renya and Luo Fei wanted to pull Xian'er out of the kitchen.
Xian'er and I just stared at each other angrily, and neither of us would show our weakness.
Later, a few uncles who were not very familiar with each other came in, and they also joined the ranks of persuading fights. When a stranger came, I was really embarrassed to continue arguing, so I avoided Xian'er's eyes and asked everyone to go out, saying that I was going to cook, and there were too many people in the kitchen that I couldn't use it.
Xian'er finally grabbed a handful of chopped vegetables, threw them hard on me, cursing, "I'm so cruel!" and left angrily.
To be honest, I was also angry at that time, but I didn’t dare to delay so many people waiting for dinner. After sending Master Xia and the others away, I closed the kitchen door and cooked in it alone.
According to the rules, in addition to preparing staple food, I also had to let two meat, two vegetables, four dishes and six cold side dishes appear on each table. But I was really not in the mood to prepare so many dishes tonight, so the dishes were still normal. I only used shredded radish and pickles to deal with the cold dishes.
I was in no mood to eat the dishes when I was cooking. A few nephews from the Ren generation came in to take the dishes away, and I left them in the kitchen and began to clean up the mess left by Xian'er.
Master Xia came in and called me to have a meal. I said I wasn't hungry. He sighed and did not urge me again.
While cleaning the kitchen, I saw a recipe near the stove. It contained some cooking steps in detail and marked the seasonings to be used.
This recipe is full of Xian'er's handwriting. It seems that she really wanted to help, but after picking up the spatula, she found that things were not as simple as she thought. In addition, she looked like she was afraid of oil collapse, so it would be nice if the pot was not burned by her.
Thinking of her panic when she was cooking, I couldn't help but want to laugh.
I tried to taste a few "black dishes" fried in Xian'er. It was really unpalatable. I didn't think about whether it was muddy or not. The salty taste alone would be terrible.
After packing the kitchen, I took a few more pieces of pig's trotters. After picking the bones, I drained the oil with pepper, added star anise, cinnamon, chili, and bay leaves and stir-fry the oil. Use this oil to wrap the pig's trotters with a layer of pastry, then put the pig's trotters into a casserole, mixed with spices, mixed rock sugar, cooking wine and soy sauce to simmer over low heat.
Then I got stuffed with rice and sat by the stove and waited patiently for the pig's trotters to come out of the pot.
While I was busy with these things, Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang entered the kitchen. As soon as Liu Shangang came in, he asked me: "What does it taste like, it smells so fragrant?"
As he said, he was about to reach out to lift the lid of the casserole.
I immediately glanced at him: "It was not made for you, I want to go to the lobby for dinner."
Liu Shangang looked at the casserole and licked his lips. Liang Houzai asked me: "I heard from them, have you quarreled with Xian'er?"
I nodded and said nothing.
Liang Houzai asked me again: "What's the matter?"
I smiled at him: "Oh, it's nothing big. You two should go out for dinner. You should be hungry after a day of busyness."
Liang Houzai tactfully stopped asking and pulled Liu Shangang out of the kitchen.
The pig's trotters were stewed for an hour. During this period, everyone consciously helped me clean up the dishes after dinner. Senior Brother Zhuang and Senior Brother Feng also helped me wash the dishes.
As Senior Brother Feng walked past the casserole, he asked me with a smile: "Is this prepared for Xian'er and the others?"
I sighed: "You can't let them go hungry."
Senior Brother Feng shook his head with a smile, and left with Senior Brother Zhuang.
An hour later, the pig's trotters were stewed, so I turned on the high heat and collected the soup slightly. Then I took a basket from the cabinet, put the casserole in, filled the rice, and took three pairs of bowls and chopsticks.
After leaving the town hall, I opened my eyes and found a very heavy demonic aura in the southeast direction.
Every time Xian'er gets angry, the demonic aura on her body becomes very heavy. I know that she deliberately releases the demonic aura, afraid that I can't find her.
I found her on a Gen road in the southeast. At that time, Xian'er was sitting on the roof of a shop, and Luo Fei stood at the intersection and looked at Xian'er from a distance.
I came to Luo Fei, she looked at me and sighed softly: "Actually, Xian'er really wants to help."
I nodded: "I know. I treated you just now..."
Luo Fei waved her hand: "It's okay, I know you're angry. Okay, go and persuade Xian'er. Now you can only persuade her."
I looked at Luo Fei and couldn't help but smile: "Thank you, Luo Fei."
Luo Fei also showed a faint smile: "Thank you, Zuo Youdao."
I asked her, "What are you thanking me?"
Luo Fei smiled and said, "Thank you for cooking, it smells so good. What are you thanking me?"
To be honest, I don’t know why I thank her. I just said it inadvertently. Now that she asked me this, I don’t know how to answer.
"Okay, go find Xian'er quickly, put the things here first." She said, taking the basket.
I took a deep breath and walked towards Xian'er.
Xian'er glanced at me on the roof and immediately turned her head aside, and it seemed that she had not yet calmed down.
I rushed forward and climbed up to the roof in three steps. The roofs of these old houses were not strong. After I reached the top, my movements became cautious, slowly approaching Xian'er, and slowly sat next to her.
There are no shops opened on this Gen Road. The red lanterns on the door have been taken off, and only the eternal lights not far away are still on.
Xian'er turned her back to me, looking like she ignored me.
I took out the recipe and read it with the light of the eternal lamp: "Mushrooms, twelve mushrooms, 300 grams of rapeseed, stir-fry the oil with garlic first, don't stir-fry it. The mushrooms should be blanched in hot water first, don't wait for the Xiang Gu... Why is it the aunt of the seven aunts and eight aunts? What's the typo?"
Xian'er immediately turned her face: "Impossible, I checked it several times, it's impossible for typos."
I raised the recipe a little and made a very puzzled expression: "Hey? It seems that it is really not a typo. No, no, the lights are too dark and I can't see clearly."
As I talked, I couldn't help but laugh.
When Xian'er saw me laughing, she knew that I was lying to her. She slapped my arm and shouted at me angrily: "Zuo Youdao, why are you like this? It's really... it's so annoying!"
I folded the recipe and put it in Xian'er's pocket. I originally wanted to be more serious, but the smile on my face couldn't be stopped.
Xian'er gave me a fierce look and turned her head back.
I stood up carefully and moved to the opposite side of her carefully. She looked very disgusted and deliberately closed her eyes and did not look at me.
I shook her arm: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, you can easily grow wrinkles when you are angry."
Xian'er: "I won't, I'll be angry. I'm kind-hearted and kind-hearted to help you cook, but you're so fierce to me!"
Seeing her angry look with her eyes closed, I couldn't help but feel happy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't be so fierce to you."
Xian'er opened her eyes and looked at me: "Do you know you're wrong?"
I immediately responded: "I know I'm wrong."
Xian'er looked into my eyes and asked again: "I really know I'm wrong?"
I said sincerely: "I really know I'm wrong. Oh, now I regret it, I'm always ashamed."
Xian'er: "Where are you wrong?"
Me: "I'm wrong... to treat your kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, and torture you. I think I'm too much."
Xian'er snorted and said disdainfully: "Tsk, lie! Then will you still be so fierce to me in the future?"
I still shook my head sincerely: "Of course not, oh, when it comes to donkey liver and lungs, I seem to have eaten donkey meat. Sister Daxian, you have lived for so many years and must have eaten donkey meat. Come on, let me tell me what the taste is."
Xian'er thought seriously for a while and said, "Donkey meat, that's...what does it mean that I have lived for so many years? Zuo Youdao, you say I'm old!"
As she spoke, her thumb and index finger of her right hand reached towards me, pinched a small piece of flesh on my arm, and twisted it hard.
"Ah, it hurts, be gentle!" I protected my arm and retreated while shouting in pain.
Xian'er obviously didn't plan to let me go. As soon as I took a step back, she rushed up, grabbed my arm and opened her mouth and bit it.
I screamed "Ah--" and didn't look at her body now, and her strength was not small at all, especially the bite force. I was so painful that I almost burst into tears.
Xian'er let go of my arm and stood there looking at me angrily: "Zuo Youdao, why are you so annoying?"
I rubbed the place she wanted to pass: "I'm done, you're so hard, it's absolutely purple! I think Xiao Renya must have been stealing the sect from you when she deals with Liu Shangang like that."
Xian'er glanced at me: "You are so embarrassed to mention Xiao Renya and Liu Shangang. Look at how nimble they are, like you, and they have been hard-working for several years but have no results."
She threw out this question again, and I was speechless on the spot.
Next, Xian'er and I fell into a cold situation.
