(One hundred and eight) confidant
Canaan looked at his work and smiled with satisfaction.
In front of him was a pot of cold noodles, and the base of the black yam puree was filled with thin noodles poured with sugar juice, which were as hard as hairpins after condensation.
He also made a lot of decorations on it, cherries, longans, lotus seeds, grapes, these crystal ...... There are also mung beans and red beans, which are delicate and small, and they are threaded through a string, gently fluttering, swaying in the wind.
This is a new dish he invented – full of pearls.
It was given to that beautiful and shy girl.
Canaan thought that she would like it, and that she had come to the feast with such a hairstyle that day.
Canaan Xu held the pot of basi cold noodles and waited for a long time at the gate of Nantian.
She promised to come to the Nine Heavens to find him today.
Well, they're moving pretty fast. Since Jinghua met for the first time at his wedding, he immediately ran to the West Sea the next day, thanking her for not disliking him that night and taking care of him drunk.
For the next few days, he would go to the West Post almost every day and repeat those words of thanks.
Later, he really couldn't think of any new words, so he had the courage to invite her to play in the Nine Heavens. She actually agreed.
Ah Xiang appeared at the gate of Nantian.
Canaan Xu was very excited, and waved to her from afar.
Today is blowing the south wind, blowing head-on, and the beads hanging on the cold noodles are really shaking, so scared that Canaan Xu can only turn his back to the wind and protect the things in his arms.
"Prince Canaan, what are you doing here?" Ah Xiang said strangely when he saw him hunched his back and came backwards to pick him up.
"Ah, His Royal Highness A Xiang, I'm afraid that the wind will blow this gift away, so I came backwards to meet it, don't blame it. ”
"Ah, Prince Canaan is too polite, you are Ah Mo's master, just call me Ah Xiang. Is this a gift? Who's?" said Ah Xiang, his eyes wide in anticipation.
"Naturally, it's for Ah Xiang. Canaan changed his words quickly, "You don't think this looks like the hundred birds and phoenix buns you combed when I first met you?"
He graciously showed her the pot of cold noodles.
They had already entered the Nantianmen, and the wind was much lighter. Ah Xiang showed a look of surprise on his face, pointed to one of the cold noodles, and said happily: "Ah, it's really similar! Look at this one, the lotus seeds and cherries on it are intertwined, and they are simply similar to my Haizhu agate hairpin!"
She pointed to another cold noodle with red bean skewers and black bean skewers and said, "This one is exactly the same as my swaying with flowers and watching the years! ”
Canaan saw that Ah Xiang liked it, and was even more encouraged, and said with a long body: "It was Ah Xiang, your Yaotai flower that day, far better than Xinghua, which gave me inspiration...... Don't hide it from Miss Axiang, since that day, I have been sleepless at night, always wanting to make some works to live up to your national posture. ”
"Really?" said Ah Xiang blushing, "I gave you inspiration?"
Canaan nodded and said seriously, "It's true." Ah Xiang, don't look down on our cooks. A lot of people think that we're just cooking a soup and stir-frying. In fact, every dish of mine is an art!"
Seeing that Ah Xiang listened attentively, he became more confident, and continued: "Just like those calligraphy and painting masters, or a generation of grandmasters! That is a clever cook! I want to make my food a comfort, a satisfaction, an emotional exchange, not just for the sake of hunger!"
Ah Xiang already had a good impression of Canaan, and at this time, he nodded frequently when he listened, and his eyes were filled with respect.
"Miss Axiang, I don't cook at any time, and I don't cook for anyone. ”
The little cook became proud again, holding the pot of cold noodles, staring at the stratus clouds, gentle for thousands of miles, "This pot is full of pearls and emeralds, I will only make it for you to eat, because you are the one who knows it best, and you are also the one who understands me best!"
"Just give me one person to eat?" Ah Xiang was so moved that he almost cried.
She was already sentimental, this Canaan son is as beautiful as jade, and he is the only seedling of the golden-winged Dapeng family, and he can make good dishes to please people!
She even felt that this little cook was not much worse than her brother-in-law of the Emperor of Heaven.
Canaan said softly, "Yes, Ah Xiang." I will also cook a lot of delicious dishes, and if you like them, I will make them for you one by one. From now on, I'll just make it for you. ”
He plucked a cold noodle stick, took the pendant dangling on it, and handed it to her, "Come, taste it!"
Ah Xiang's heart was turbulent, and the tide of emotion was wet and salty, overflowing from his heart and flowing out of his eyes.
"Woo, Canaan, you're really good!" The crying Ah Xiang found the right place this time, and Canaan successfully hugged her in his arms and comforted her softly.
He is also an emotional person, and the sense of accomplishment in his heart is also surging to overflow when he sees that the gift he created can be sent out to move his beloved girl to tears.
Yes, he fell in love with Ah Xiang.
It's not like Ah Mo said, because the sisters may look a little alike, and they will settle for the second. It's a different reason, completely visceral.
Canaan Xu was a somewhat persistent person.
For example, when cooking, he always insists that it is his life ideal and an artistic realm. It doesn't matter if others don't understand, it's okay to laugh at him, as long as he loves it from the bottom of his heart.
But the path of art is always lonely and winding.
Although he was born wealthy and didn't need to worry about things like the family mission, he always seemed out of place in a bunch of pickled and realistic cooks. What everyone cares about is how much this dish is eaten by His Majesty today, so as to measure your level, rather than using his self-righteous creativity, genre, connotation, and perception.
He was distressed.
He fell in love with Ah Mo at first sight because Ah Mo saved him in the blood bank. But Ah Mo didn't understand him, she worshipped him as a teacher and learned cooking from him, but the purpose was very disappointing to him.
She just wanted Jinghua to gain weight.
But my sister Ah Xiang is different.
She listened attentively to his unique views on food! She sincerely agreed that every ingredient has its own different emotions! She deeply understood the tremendous indescribable sense of happiness when a work is completed!
Yes, she also does design, she designs clothes.
She also has the distress of not being understood. Everyone thought it was just the work of tailors and embroiderers.
No one thinks that good taste is the soul of a shirt, and no one thinks that a complete dress design should include hairstyle, jewelry, makeup, and even the overall match including temperament.
The two hit it off and hated each other.
Canaan felt that a new realm of life had opened up, and he had truly seen himself. That's right, Ah Xiang is more suitable for himself than Ah Mo to some extent.
"Son Canaan, this is simply a masterpiece of art, beautiful! Please forgive me for not being able to bear to get down!" Ah Xiang muttered with a red face.
"It's okay, Ah Xiang. Maxima often has, but Bole does not often have. Canaan Xu also blushed a little, but still said angrily: "I have Axiang, and there will be a steady stream of inspiration in the future, so there is no need to be reluctant." ”
"Hmm. Ah Xiang quietly raised his eyes, glanced at Canaan Xu with a bright face, and agreed shyly.
Canaan affectionately handed over the cold noodle, and Ah Xiang reached out to take it affectionately-
Suddenly, the cold noodles were robbed by the halfway!
Ah Moga took a bite, bit off the pearl green, chewed twice and spit out two grape seeds, and said critically: "It's okay, the master will use seedless grapes next time, I'm annoyed to spit out the seeds!"
Canaan looked at her in a daze, "Ah Mo, are you back? Didn't you say you were going to play for three months?"
Ah Mo sighed and said: "Alas, something has happened in the human world, I'll explain it to you next time! I'll borrow Sister Ah Xiang to use it first!"
Canaan stood in place with his head full of pearls and emeralds.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ah Mo took Ah Xiang to the study of Chen'an Palace.
Like all the people who saw Jinghua's collection for the first time, Ah Xiang's eyes widened and he was stunned for a long time.
"Your Majesty has so many books!
"What is this unusual? We Jinghua have a hundred such study rooms! What is even more strange is that we have read every single book! No matter what you want to ask, he can tell you immediately, amazing!" Ah Mo said proudly.
"Awesome, I can't even think about it. ”
"Alas, but how boring he must have been when he was a child to read so many books!" Ah Mo sighed, "How like our brothers and sisters, happy all day long, causing trouble everywhere!"
Ah Xiang smiled: "You are pitiful from love, you don't like to read, you think reading is boring, Your Majesty may not think it." Besides, if you really think he is boring, it is better to give him a little prince as soon as possible, and his father will be nagging for a long time. ”
Ah Mo was a little melancholy, and sighed again, "I'm afraid he hasn't been in this mood for a while! Sister Ah Xiang, do you know that your Xiangjiang River is broken?"
Ah Xiang heard her mention the matter, and stopped joking, and said, "I know." A while ago, there were visions everywhere in the human world, not only the Xiangjiang River, but also many major rivers and rivers were cut off. My father had already sent an additional rain master to add rain to the rain, but as soon as the raindrops landed, they were completely absorbed by the ground. ”
"Yes, I went to rain it too. Jinghua said that when the rain hit the ground, it was like hitting a burning iron plate, and it sneered white smoke!"
Ah Xiang nodded and said, "It's quite scary." Fortunately, everything has been solved now, and my father is relieved. Mo, that's not why you came back early, did you?"
"It's not settled, it's not even officially started. "We suspect that the abundance of water and the missing people are trying to activate some powerful circle. When the magic circle opens, it will be Jinghua's Heavenly Tribulation!"
"What, the Great Tribulation?" said Ah Xiang.
"Shhhhhhhhhh
She let go of Ah Xiang, "That's why we hurried back." I don't know if he's still there, but how can I be so stupid, seeing that Brother Xuanhua looks like a great enemy all day long, I guessed it!"
"Can you survive this catastrophe?" said Ah Xiang worriedly.
"I don't know," Ah Mo shook his head and said, "Jinghua's cultivation is invincible in the world, but you also know that this kind of thing is not just by cultivating." So I want to ask, do you know of any magic circles that use water as a medium?"
Ah Mo pointed to the huge study, "I've been checking here for several days, and I don't know the point. ”
Ah Xiang thought for a while and said, "It doesn't seem to be." I've only heard of blood or spiritual power as a medium, but it won't be so much. Ah Mo, are you thinking too much? Water, that is, washing, scrubbing, dissolving dirt and descaling, where can you activate any magic circle?"
