XXXI. Home Cooking
A young woman with delicate makeup and a bumpy figure came over and greeted Zheng Duo, "Zheng Shao, today is finally here, this table is a beautiful flower, and it has been empty for a long time." ”
Zheng Duo raised his head and smiled, "Sister Fan is always so funny and elegant, why, if you don't come for a few days, Sister Fan will miss me?"
"Yes, as soon as I think of my delicacies without the tasting of Mr. Zheng and your girlfriends, I feel empty in my heart, it is the lonely fang that no one appreciates, and the beauty is less painful!"
"Didn't I come? I haven't tasted Sister Fan's food for a few days, and I can't eat or sleep. ”
Guan Qing looked a little stunned.
The young woman winked at the slightly embarrassed Guan Qing, "I'm joking with Mr. Zheng, we are old friends, it's rare that Mr. Zheng feels that the craftsmanship here is passable, and occasionally bring two friends to sit down, let's be born once and be familiar with each other, and you will be the same as Mr. Zheng in the future, just call me Sister Fan, and I'll give you a discount." ”
Sister Fan lightly pressed Guan Qing's shoulder, and handed the menu to Guan Qing, the gilded cover, the beautiful picture, it is simply a beautiful work of art.
Today is a treat by himself, of course, he can't be too stingy, Guan Qing handed the menu to Zheng Duo again.
Zheng Duo was not polite, took the menu, and checked a few items at random, Sister Fan glanced at the menu, "It seems that Mr. Zheng's taste has changed a lot." ”
Zheng Duo clasped his hands, "Is there one?"
"Of course, in every way, it's becoming more and more tasteful. ”
Sister Fan leaned over and said something in Zheng Duo's ear, and then with a smile, she came over and patted Guan Qing's shoulder again, "Remember to come to me next time, and I won't bother you today." ”
Flutteringly turned around and went to greet other guests.
There was a vent in the house, and the simulated peach blossom tree branches were swaying, and Guan Qing was dizzy.
Guan Qing looked around, this place was a great place for dating men and women.
Reminiscent of the last time he sent himself and Tan Yaxin home, today he brought himself to this kind of place, wouldn't it be interesting to him?
But she soon dispelled this idea, a rich second generation who took turns to change girlfriends, at most, out of the nature of curiosity, and had a sense of novelty about the women she just met.
Physiologically speaking, the freshness between men and women is generally three months, and when the dopamine release in the skull returns to normal levels, the two will return from the sweet expectation period to the normal passerby period of Ding is Ding and Mao is Mao.
In other words, after three months, the relationship between men and women needs more practical material and personality matching, such as three views, temper, economic conditions, and so on.
Guan Qing has always been self-aware of herself, and she and Zheng Duo don't have too many matching conditions to maintain their relationship, and they are destined to only be passers-by A and passerby B who have crossed paths in the future.
She didn't want to be one of the ex-girlfriends that Zheng Duo boasted about in the future.
Then there is only one possibility, as a rich second generation with bursting self-confidence, it is reasonable to feel that all girls should look up to him and take him as the goal to pursue and strive for, or he has always thought that he is omnipotent and can harvest the joys and sorrows of all admirers effortlessly.
In the end, this is just a dinner arranged to prove its charm.
After thinking about it, Guan Qing was also calm.
Zheng Duo randomly checked a few dishes, and then handed the menu to the waiter.
Guan Qing is only worried about one thing now, there is no price on the exquisite menu just now, and the price of the pleasing dishes is definitely expensive.
The wallet is not guaranteed today.
"Don't worry, I just ordered a few home-cooked dishes. Zheng Duo seemed to have guessed Guan Qing's thoughts, squinted his peach blossom eyes and said.
Guan Qing flattened her mouth, and she still had a little conscience.
She doesn't want to slap her swollen face and become fat, saying big things like "whatever you want to eat".
The dish was quickly served, starting with a noodle dish that looked extraordinarily smooth and white, twisted into a bun and coiled into small rolls, garnished with silky chicken and garnished with sesame seeds and salad dressing.
The waiter introduced that this dish is called Caiyun chasing the moon.
Guan Qing muttered in her heart, good-looking is good-looking, but with this kind of weight, it seems that one serving is not enough for her to fill her stomach.
Zheng Duo picked up the fork, pulled the noodles a few times, picked a few and put them in his mouth, "You can taste it too." ”
Stupidly put down a large ball of noodles that had just been rolled up, Guan Qing followed Zheng Duo's example, picked two sticks, and put them in his mouth.
The taste is good, but the food has to be matched with the mood, and the taste buds will be greatly reduced when the mood is bad.
"Isn't it just cold noodles, the name is so good?" Guan Qing muttered.
"It doesn't matter the name, the noodles here are rolled out by the chef himself, and they only make a fixed amount every day, and there is no more. The soup is made of free-range elderly hens for more than two years, simmered for more than four hours on a slow fire, boiled out the original chicken soup, and then added a variety of fresh mushrooms to the soup, boiled for an hour, and can not put a little monosodium glutamate in the whole process. After the soup is boiled, put the noodles in the soup pot and boil them quickly, soak them in the cold chicken broth, and then remove them when the noodles have absorbed enough water, filter the water and air dry. So this bowl of noodles takes about five hours. ”
Such elaborate noodles are not meant to be eaten, but rather appreciated.
Endured the hunger in her stomach, Guan Qing picked a few more with chopsticks and put them in her mouth.
Since things are not easy to come by, of course those who eat them must chew them slowly, otherwise they will be suspected of eating ginseng fruit by Zhu Bajie.
The noodles are very strong and the umami is also very rich, but Guan Qing is a little difficult to swallow, secretly thinking about how much such a dish that even Xiaobei can't eat enough will cost her salary.
Zheng Duo continued, "Although they are all ordinary dishes, the chef here is unusual, I heard that he is a special chef who once cooked food for foreign guests in the State Guesthouse. ”
They are all special chefs, and making a bowl of herbal tea must be much more expensive than other people's gold.
Guan Qing trembled a little.
The second course is served in a small round cup, milky white bean curd, topped with a green incense flower, a clean and refreshing one.
Guan Qing put down her snack slightly, thinking that this kid was still merciful, and he should still be able to afford a bowl of bean curd.
"There's a name for this dish too, right?"
"This is called Snow Tanchun. ”
The name and the real thing also match, and the person who chose the name is also ingenious.
Guan Qing scooped a spoonful with a spoon and stuffed it into her mouth, it was very delicious, not like ordinary bean curd.
"What is this made of?"
"Made with chicken. Zheng Duo understated,
"Can chicken be made the same as tofu?" Guan Qing was a little unconvinced of her palate.
"It's just time-consuming. Boil the chicken broth for more than four hours, then beat the chicken into a very fine minced chicken, filter out the coarse residue and fascia, add egg whites and water and whip constantly, add water every 20 minutes, well, add at least a dozen times, and when it is beaten into a rice paste like tofu, add the chicken broth and simmer it, and that's it. How's it going, does it taste okay?"
At this time, Guan Qing was already untainted with food, and reluctantly swallowed the food.
This is the home-cooked food in Zheng Duo's mouth?
Zheng Duo squinted his peach blossom eyes, "There is a dish called Green Wave Picking Waves below, which is also a home-cooked dish." ”
Guan Qing tasted something interesting, the dishes were made strangely, and the names of the dishes were strange, chasing, probing, and searching, no matter how you heard it, it felt ambiguous.
hurriedly excused himself, "My stomach has not been very good in the past two days, and I have eaten porridge for several days, and I really can't eat it anymore. ”
Zheng Duo frowned, "Then what should I do, I haven't eaten yet." ”
"You can just order your own food, and leave me alone. ”
He's always embarrassed to eat alone in front of himself.
Zheng Duo is really embarrassed.
He said, "You don't eat as a treat, and I'm embarrassed to eat openly, so let's have a snack and deal with my stomach casually." ”
Zheng Duo called the waiter and asked her not to serve a few dishes, just a bowl of Aiyu ice powder.
Soon the waiter came up with ice powder and placed it in a glass bowl shaped like an agate.
Guan Qing watched Zheng Duo slowly and methodically put the ice powder with soap rice and peach gum into his mouth, swallowed his saliva, and rolled his eyes at Zheng Duo in his heart.
Finally finished eating the ice powder, Zheng Duo wiped his mouth and showed a satisfied smile.
