Chapter 40: Dark Cuisine
Soon, Qin Lu knew the reason for the fault in Cheng Xiaoshao's memory. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Can Cheng Susu cook?
It's a big joke!
Because his body had not recovered, Qin Lu couldn't help much when he was cooking dinner, but after only watching it in the kitchen for a short while, Qin Lu was terrified.
The fresh live fish was not even handled, so Cheng Susu threw it whole into the pot. When Qin Lu picked it up, it was even spitting bubbles alive.
When making fried eggs, it was even more exaggerated, despite Qin Lu's repeated reminders, Cheng Susu still couldn't control and poured a small half pot of oil into it, and sparks splashed in the directly fried kitchen, and the screams were endless.
"You're always here to get in my way, you're so annoying!"
After intervening a few times, Cheng Susu couldn't help but pout, and blasted Qin Lu out of the kitchen without saying anything.
"Hmph, go and stay in the yard! I'm calling you when I'm done~"
Finish?
Can I still eat it after I do it?
Qin Lu couldn't stop beating the drum in his heart, in fact, it was impossible for any normal person to be calm when he saw Cheng Susu's cooking method. She seems to have an exaggerated misunderstanding of the word cooking.
For Cheng Susu, maybe throwing the ingredients into the pot, as long as the water can be boiled and bubbling, sprinkled with salt is considered a dish. And that's exactly what she did, at least that's how the fish was served on the table in the first place.
"It's really blinding......"
Qin Lu looked at the fish on the plate, and couldn't help but have a black line in his head. To be honest, he couldn't tell the kind of fish anymore. The contents of the plate were black and clumped, and Qin Lu couldn't even believe that it was a boiled fish.
"You can cook the fish as if it was burnt...... This girl is too strong......"
Looking at the Cheng sisters who were busy in the kitchen, Qin Lu secretly stretched out her hand, wanting to taste this strange dish with an exaggerated appearance.
"Whoosh!"
A stone flew in his ear, hitting Qin Lu's hand.
"Don't try to steal it, gluttonous cat!"
Cheng Susu's voice immediately came from the kitchen.
"Does this girl have eyes on her back?"
Qin Lu said in surprise.
"The perception of high-level martial artists is relatively keen, so let's give up~" Fu Xian Xian also quickly retracted his hand, "It looks so fierce, it's completely different when cooking~"
"Why isn't your perception so sharp?" Qin Lu said in surprise.
"Who said that?" Fu Xian's nose was crooked, "People are also very powerful!
"Yes......"
Qin Lu expressed disbelief. Obviously, the ghost girl has been in the house all along, and she hasn't found out. I still dare to say that my perception is very keen, tsk......
"Humph!"
Qin Lu's expression couldn't be more obvious, Fu Xianxian lowered her head in frustration, it was obvious that she was powerless to refute Qin Lu's questioning.
The recent days have been too leisurely, good food and drink, comfortable accommodation, and a new family. Fu Xianxian no longer had to worry about having nothing to eat and being expelled like he did when he was in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
The mild days made her wary much lower. There was another summoned beast in the house, and she really didn't notice it.
Sitting in the courtyard and waiting for a while, the Cheng sisters finally finished dinner. Cheng Xiaoxiao brought five plates, four dishes and one soup, which looked quite hearty, but it was difficult for Qin Lu to determine what was in them.
One is boiled fish, one is scrambled eggs, another is a combination of mushrooms and other vegetables, and the fourth is simply a lump of slimy, so you can't tell what the raw material is.
To be reasonable, Cheng Susu's food is not very delicious. At the very least, it's not so unpalatable that it can't be swallowed, but the important thing is that it's too powerful.
Qin Lu was very puzzled by what kind of spice Cheng Susu had added to it, and when he went down with a spoonful, it was like a small fireball was stuffed into his mouth, if he hadn't endured it, he would almost have squirted out.
The consequences of swallowing are even more unbearable, originally it was only uncomfortable in the mouth, but after the stomach, it instantly spread all over the body. The taste is rushing, spicy, fishy and bitter, and the taste is mixed. With just a spoonful, Qin Lu's tears welled up.
"How's it going?, is it delicious?" Cheng Susu sat beside Qin Lu with great interest, "I heard that vinegar can remove the fishy smell, I deliberately added half a bowl, is it tasteless?"
Qin Lu finally couldn't hold back, and sprayed gorgeously......
……
How the dinner ended, Qin Lu couldn't remember it clearly. When he woke up the next day, his throat was still hot and uncomfortable, and the lethality of Cheng Susu's food was even greater than that of the distilled liquor in the distillery. It took a long time for Qin Lu to slowly recover.
The ghost girl was also heard from, but Qin Lu knew that she was still hiding somewhere in the house, because the vegetables in the vegetable garden were still slowly decreasing, but on the kitchen side, the little girl never appeared again.
Qin Lu didn't want to hurt her, or it could be said that Qin Lu had more pity in her heart than fear. It was hard for him to imagine what kind of reason was supporting this girl, and he would rather hide and steal the turnips than insist on staying here.
Ghost summoned beasts will not starve to death, but they still maintain the habits of creatures, can feel the taste, and also have the desire to eat, which is why the little girl will take the risk of stealing the tomato that Qin Lu put in the kitchen.
Qin Lu understood this, so after looking for the ghost girl to no avail, he made an extra piece of food and placed it in the back garden. The vicinity of the vegetable garden is a place where the little girl often goes, and Qin Lu believes that she will see it.
"Tsk, I didn't eat it......"
Another day passed, and Qin Lu came to the garden, ready to put away the plates. Fu Xian Xian glanced at the steamed bun that had already been cold, and didn't understand Qin Lu's thoughts.
"It's okay, sooner or later, she will eat it one day......" Qin Lu looked at the increasingly desolate vegetable garden, and sighed: "Anyway, it won't cost a few dollars, so she can eat it......"
It's about to enter winter, and it is impossible to have food in the vegetable garden all the time, Qin Lu doesn't know how the little girl persevered before, but at least this winter, Qin Lu hopes to make her less sad.
"Cut ~ do some useless work......"
Fu Xian Xian puffed out his little face, looking sullen. She was still a little repulsive to the ghost girl, and Qin Lu's decision was just useless in her opinion.
Qin Lu's attention didn't last long on the ghost girl, and despite preparing food for her every day, it was already difficult for Qin Lu to think about why she refused to eat.
Because on the other side of Chang'an, a grand event with hundreds of thousands of people, the recruitment conference, has begun!
