Is the essence of Zhu's cooking the use of fire?

Be.

Is it just fire?

No.

Even more subtle than the use of fire is the correct understanding and acceptance of the dish.

Don't memorize every step of the recipe, but grasp its uniqueness, make the most suitable dish for your own heart, and dedicate it to every diner.

Only what you really like, what you appreciate, and what you bring to diners is the best feast.

So, does it matter if you can handle a kitchen knife or not?

Does it matter if you use fire or not?

Twenty years ago, Zhu Silin was extremely angry and lost.

Twenty years later, Zhu Silin forgot about fire and won the respect of everyone, including his opponents.

I wish Silin died suddenly in laughter, and Nianfu was in the kitchen, making sweet potatoes.

For Master, there is no kind of remembrance that is more meaningful than learning to control the fire again.

So Nianfu will not waste time crying, kowtowing, and burning paper. Without the blessing of the god of fire, what are you afraid of, won't the cooks in this world cook food?

Why can't she do what others can do?

But still, it failed.

It's okay, I can come again. Nian Fu took a breath and wanted to go to the shabu-shabu again, but was held down by a hand.

Ouyang Kang looked at his wife's haggard and thin face lovingly, "Okay, that's all for today." If your master sees that you are working so hard, he will also feel distressed. ”

The little potato boy in his arms didn't know what was going on, but just smiled silly at the depressed mother. It seems to be trying to amuse her.

Nian Fu was silent, and finally took off his apron.

After kowtowing to the master, putting on the pillar incense, and returning to the room, Ouyang Kang had already put the little potato boy to sleep and looked at her quietly.

Looking at his son's quiet sleeping face for a long time, Nian Fu opened his mouth with difficulty.

"Master...... I regret ......"

Ouyang Kang didn't say anything, took her into his arms, and patted her on the back gently. The tears that his wife had held back for a long time fell on his shoulders.

Zhu Silin is not a pleasant character. It's even a little lonely.

He is not as knowledgeable and funny as Su Cheng. is not as kind and easy-going as Du Chuan, and he is not even as kind and open-minded as Doctor Gao.

Seriously, not many people want to be close to him. Even, including the blessing.

In addition to cooking. Looking back on it now. He rarely seems to be with him. Talk about the sky, talk about the earth.

Later, he chose to stay in the Pingwang Mansion, where Nianfu was reluctant to set foot in. There are even fewer interactions.

Is Zhu Silin really a cold-hearted person?

Little Potato Boy goes there to play, and he will prepare food for the child every time.

If Nianfu fell ill, he would stew soup for this apprentice.

Now, he uses his life to teach Nianfu the true meaning of cooking.

Also, help her from the disaster.

No one said that Nianfu couldn't deceive himself.

There are many ways for Master to teach her, why did he choose this most decisive way?

Because of those rumors.

He's helping her tell everyone, especially the one in the dragon chair. They are all members of the family, but they are also ordinary people. There is the same birth, old age, sickness and death, there is really no need to worry.

And as soon as he dies, what reason is there to implicate her and Chai Rong?

There are some people in this world who are born to laugh, which will make you feel thoughtful and warm from your heart. But there are also some people who are born like the rough appearance of granite, and will only use the stupidest way to protect you and be good to you.

Nianfu regretted it very much, regretted that he didn't treat Master better.

She should be more considerate of him, care more about him, take the little potato boy to see him more, accompany him, even if he dislikes it, she should go there only to sit there for a cup of tea.

But from now on, she will never have such a chance.

The son wants to raise but the parent is not there.

This kind of grief is enough to tear people's hearts apart.

"In the future, let's let this kid be a cook." Ouyang Kang gently put his hand on her lower abdomen, "Be the most powerful cook in the whole world, let everyone know that he is a disciple of the Zhu family." ”

"Nope." Nianfu wiped away his tears and said firmly, "The best disciple of the Zhu clan is me, and he can only be the best disciple." We're going to be the best cooks in the world, for everyone to know. ”

Ouyang Kang kissed the moist corners of his wife's eyes, and said cautiously, "You will definitely do it, I believe it." ”

※

Palace.

The eunuch replied in a low voice, "Today, someone in the previous dynasty is discussing the matter of the prince, and it is the king of Chu who is mentioned. ”

Queen Wang frowned, "How could you mention him?" ”

"According to the song, the king of Chu has already given birth to a son, and he is already one year old."

That sick son actually has a son? Queen Wang didn't speak, but her face was a little unpleasant. The eldest son has the eldest grandson, and it stands to reason that this is the most suitable heir.

But how can this make the queen willing? The emperor's concubines are only the three kings of Chuqi and Jin, plus the fourteen sons she gave birth to, the newly crowned Rui Wang.

The King of Jin is dead, the King of Chu is frail, and he has no children for many years, she has always felt that the King of Qi is the biggest competitor, but now that the King of Chu has a son, there is a new variable.

"Go and pass on the king to the palace."

Be. The eunuch responded, and in less than half a day, Wang Cang appeared in front of the queen.

"What do you say?"

Wang Cang smiled slightly bitterly, "Is the queen too anxious?" It's just a one-year-old kid......"

"The children are one year old before they report to the palace, do you think they don't have any plans?" Queen Wang's voice was a little harsh, "This palace transferred you to the capital to be this welcome envoy, do you know how much effort it took to do so?" Now that Zhuo Rilie is leaving, is he just watching it? You should know the emperor's mind better than me, why can't you think of a child to make a contribution? ”

Wang Cang knelt on the ground, "The minister is incompetent, and he has the trust of his mother." ”

Queen Wang took a slight breath and forced herself to suppress her temper, "I don't want to blame you now, you get up." In fact, if you want to talk about the understanding of the grassland tribe, Jiashan County Horse should be regarded as one, why don't you go to talk to him? Besides, you're so good, he should be able to help you come up with ideas. ”

It's about being good. I can't open my mouth.

Robbed someone else's credit, and you have to let someone come over to help you? It's also too bullying.

But the queen didn't realize it, and picked two children's toys and asked him to bring them together, "Just say that it was given to you by the palace." ”

This is afraid of getting into trouble, and wants to win over people's tricks, will it be too low-level?

Wang Cang couldn't, so he collected his things, turned around and took a break, and came to visit Poyuan.

Ouyang Kang generously accepted the things and picked out a few good things for him. "Now it's not convenient to invite my sister-in-law and Bao'er to come and walk. These things were brought for us, and it was said that the county lord had always missed them. ”

Wang Cang was even more ashamed, "You know, I didn't bring them here for this." You should know too. It's a lot going on these days. I can't help myself. ”

Ouyang Kang is colored. "I still remember when I first arrived in the capital, I didn't understand anything because of my brother's and sister-in-law's advice. Seriously. If it hadn't been for you to help me at the earliest, I would have retreated. You know my family affairs, and you and your sister-in-law have always been respected as elder brothers and sisters-in-law in the hearts of me and the county lord. If there are some polite words, let's not talk about them, and it will hurt if we say them. ”

Wang Cang stomped his foot, "Bring the wine!" Let my younger siblings fry a few side dishes, and let's have a few drinks. ”

Ouyang Kang smiled at this time, and ordered the family to prepare the wine and food that the two of them loved to eat, and find a quiet place in the garden alone, so that they could have a good chat.

By the time Wang Cang left, it was dark in the morning.

When Ouyang Kang came back with a drunken body, Nianfu was coaxing his son to sleep. As soon as he saw that his father was back, the fat sweet potato was refreshed, turned over and got up, and wanted to play with others.

With the strength of wine, let his son ride on his neck, go out to play a lap Feifei, the little potato boy ran out of energy at the last point, giggled and giggled, buried his head in the soft quilt with a pigtail, and fell asleep with his buttocks pouted.

It was quite funny to put his son to sleep flat, and Nian Fu asked, "Feeling happy?" ”

Ouyang Kang sighed, "Brother Wang is really aggrieved, the queen is now bent on helping King Rui to ascend the throne, but how can such a major matter of establishing a prince be so easy to fight?" But he persuaded but no one listened, and he wanted to push him forward and do something out of tune. Now he wants to get out, but he doesn't know what to do. ”

Nian Fu was silent, "I'm afraid that Queen Wang still wants to tie us up to the thief ship, right?" ”

Ouyang Kang sneered, "She doesn't have the courage yet, with your reputation in the way, she wants to give something to her, and she has to change hands." It can be seen that the emperor's intentions, she is not very thorough. ”

Nian Fu suddenly asked, "Then who do you think it will be?" ”

Ouyang Kang chuckled, "No matter who you choose, it won't be a milk doll." Now it has not been how many years the world has been peaceful, and the lessons of the previous dynasty are still there, and the emperor should not be confused to this point. ”

I don't know what he said, but Nianfu remembers the history of King Yan in the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang tried his best to succeed to the throne for his grandson, killed so many old ministers, and survived until his grandson grew up. But as soon as he died, King Yan reversed, and the emperor's chair was driven down before it was hot.

Queen Wang was also a smart person, but unfortunately she still couldn't see it in the end. Maybe when she gets to that position, it's hard to see it anymore, right?

Nianfu didn't care who Gao Xian wanted to choose as his successor, she only told Ouyang Kang, "Our family shouldn't hug their thighs, live honestly, it's better than anything else." ”

Although the dragon's work is great, the risk is also great. The two in-laws are naturally timid, and it is enough to have today's days, and they are not interested in cooking oil with fire and flowers.

Ouyang Kang also said, "I'd rather the emperor allow us to return to our hometown, and the family will get a yard, build a farm, and live a quiet life, which is not better than anything?" ”

Nian Fu glanced at him, "Then you just wait to grow old in this broken garden." ”

Ouyang Kang pouted, "That's not bad, anyway, I'm with you." I've become an old man, and you should be an old woman too. ”

Nianfu suddenly felt funny, "Potato boy should also get married then, right?" When he wants to marry a daughter-in-law, what should I do if he doesn't drive the disk with me? Our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fight all day long, he should be very aggrieved, right? ”

Ouyang Kang looked at her gloating and was speechless, "You seem to be looking forward to it?" ”

"Of course." Nianfu dreamed of evil taste, "I want to be a wicked mother-in-law, pulling my daughter-in-law's pigtails all day long." ”

Ouyang Kang glanced at his son sympathetically and went to sleep.

A few days later, a letter was delivered to Po Yuan.

***

Wangcai: I finally know where the tradition of pigtails comes from......

White Potato: Brother Cai, come, I'll make up a few for you. Oh, don't run so fast! (To be continued......)
