Chapter Eighty-Nine: Chef Tang Zheng
"Wow, it smells so good. I just don't know if it's good or not. Tang Ji said as he swallowed his saliva on the side.
"It's cold for a while, it's too hot now." Tang Zheng said to his sister, and then spread out all the pig's trotters and pig's head meat that were fished out.
"Brother Zheng, can you really eat this?" Cai Yan asked.
Tang Zheng didn't answer, Cai Yan just used chopsticks to pick up a little pig's head meat and put it in his mouth, and then used chopsticks to clip a piece of meat and fed it to Cai Yan's mouth. Originally, Cai Yan was a little embarrassed, but he was immediately replaced by the delicacy in his mouth.
In this era, pigs are called 彘 (zhi), only poor people eat, the aristocracy thinks that pigs are eaten inferior food, grow up, think unclean, so they don't eat pork, generally mutton-based, and a little pig in this era has not been castrated, so it is not as fat and strong as we are common in later generations, and the pigs of this era are all a skeleton.
Cai Yan chewed the delicacy in her mouth, never thought that pork could be so delicious, she had to admire Tang Zheng's craftsmanship. After Tang Zheng's cooking, even Cai Yan, who usually stays away from pork, felt that it was delicious. At this time, Tang Ji, who was standing on the side, was already impatient and hurriedly said to his brother: "I will taste it too, and my brother will give me a piece." ”
Tang Zheng grabbed a relatively small piece of pig's trotter and handed it to his sister, and Tang Ji didn't care whether it was hot or not, and sent it directly to his mouth. While gnawing on the pig's trotters, he said to his brother: "It's delicious, it's so delicious, if all the pork is so delicious, I can eat a pig." ”
Zhang Chao swallowed saliva when he watched it from the side, and Tang Zheng also picked up a pig's trotter for him. Zhang Chao took the pig's trotters and started to gnaw directly regardless of whether it was hot or not, he had long known that the food made by Childe was delicious, but he didn't expect that Childe could make such a delicious delicacy by casually buying a little herb in the pharmacy.
When it was almost cool, Tang Zheng filled two food boxes. He handed one of them to Zhang Chao and said to him, "Now, bring it back and let the brothers taste it." Zhang Chao took the food box and thanked him again and again.
Tang Zheng pointed to another food box and said to Cai Yan: "Yan'er, wait a minute, you can bring this back and let your uncle taste it." ”
"Well, thank you, Brother Zheng!"
Tang Zheng smiled and didn't say anything, and then put some on a plate and brought it to his mother.
"Mother, you taste this delicacy that the child only made today, and it's still a little hot." Tang Zheng said to his mother in Tang's mother's room.
"You, if you have nothing to do all day, you will only scratch your mouth, you might as well spend more time with Yan'er."
"Auntie, Brother Zheng has been with me these days." Cai Yan replied with a blushing face.
"By the way, I'll send you some Uncle Cai in a while, so that you can also taste it."
"Mother, don't worry. I'm ready, and I'll let her bring it back to Uncle Cai when Huiyan'er goes back. ”
Tang's mother looked at her son and Cai Yan and smiled with satisfaction, and suddenly Tang's mother pulled Cai Yan over and asked her to sit on the edge of the bed, only to see Tang's mother take a bracelet from her hand and put it on Cai Yan's hand and said: "Although this bracelet is not a precious variety, it is the only relic that my mother gave me." I don't have anything to give you, so I'll give you this bracelet, Yan'er, don't dislike it. ”
"Ah, aunt, this is too precious, Zhao Ji doesn't dare to accept it." Cai Yan wanted to take the bracelet off his hand but was stopped by Tang's mother: "Mother, there is nothing long, only this bracelet is for you." I hope you and Zheng'er will support each other to live this life in the future, Zheng'er has been more bitter in this life, he has not been treated by his aunt since he was a child, and his brother has always bullied him. Later, he disappeared for two years, and if I hadn't met a good Samaritan, I'm afraid I would never have seen Zheng'er again. ”
"Aunt, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Brother Zheng in the future."
"Okay, you guys go out first, I want to be quiet for a while."
After Tang Zheng helped his mother to the bed and lay down, he and Cai Yan left Tang's mother's room. "Brother Zheng, after all, this is the only relic left to her by my aunt's mother, otherwise you can help me return it to my aunt." Cai Yan said to Tang Zheng.
"Since your mother has already given it to you, you can take it." Tang Zheng said to Cai Yan. Cai Yan nodded, and the two walked straight to the kitchen, and when Tang Zheng and Cai Yan arrived in the kitchen, they saw Tang Ji still holding pig's trotters in the kitchen.
"I said, sister, are you going to have dinner?"
"Eat, why don't you eat? Ah, brother, are you going to make dinner? Tang Ji said inarticulately.
"Then aren't you afraid that you won't be able to eat dinner later?"
"Brother Sleep's cooking is so delicious, I feel like I can still nibble on two." After saying that, Tang Ji also hiccuped. Tang Zheng shook his head and said to this sister that he was hopeless.
"Brother Zheng, it's not early, I'm going back." Cai Yan said with some reluctance.
"Yan'er, I'll go back after dinner, I'll send you."
"It's not good, won't it be too troublesome Brother Zheng."
"What's wrong, we're about to become a family anyway." Tang Ji said on the side.
"Yes, it's fine. If there's any trouble, I'll send you back when I'm done eating. ”
"Okay then."
Tang Zheng began to prepare the evening's meals in the kitchen, and the ingredients were ready-made. Cai Yan looked at Tang Zheng quietly on the side, and suddenly she felt how good it would be if time stayed at this moment forever.
After a while, dinner was ready, Tang Zheng dropped the tools in his hand and said to Cai Yan: "Let's go, let's go eat." ”
Cai Yan walked to Tang Zheng's side and carefully wiped Tang Zheng's face with a handkerchief. Tang Zheng took Cai Yan's little hand and gave her a hug, Tang Ji was stunned as she watched from the sidelines, and she didn't understand why her brother suddenly opened up? The courage has become so big.
"Let's go, what are you doing in a daze?" Tang Zheng said to his sister who was standing there motionless.
"Oh, yes. Let's go, eat. Tang Ji was still thinking about why his brother had become so bold when he was suddenly awakened by Tang Zheng's words. Tang Zheng looked at his sister, and she didn't even speak with a preface, so she wouldn't be stupid, right?
"What kind of expression do you have, I tell you to be careful that I bite you." Looking at her brother's expression of caring for mentally handicapped children, Tang Ji jumped up like a kitten with its tail stepped on. Cai Yan watched the fight between Tang Zheng's two siblings and covered his mouth and snickered on the side.
"Let's go, let's go eat. I don't know if you'll be able to eat it. Tang Zheng glanced at his sister out of the corner of his eye and said. Then he took Cai Yan's little hand and walked to the dining room.
"Tut-tut, tonight's meal was so delicious." After speaking, Tang Zheng smashed his mouth twice. Sure enough, after Tang Ji heard his brother's words, he glared at Tang Zheng angrily and said, "Brother, you did it on purpose." ”
"Who told you to eat so much in the afternoon? Besides, I didn't let you stop eating, you didn't eat it yourself. Blame me! Tang Zheng shrugged and said to his sister. Tang Ji gritted his teeth and looked at his brother, who hated to go up and bite a piece of meat.
Tang Ji ate a little too much this afternoon, and she really couldn't eat it at dinner. So there is the dialogue above.
"Yan'er, have you eaten enough? Let's go, I'll take you home. Tang Zheng turned to Cai Yan and said.
"Well, then it's going to be troublesome Brother Zheng." After speaking, Cai Yan followed Tang Zheng to Cai's mansion.
"Okay, Brother Zheng, I'm home, you can go back quickly."
"Yes, that's right. Yan'er, I have something for you, you close your eyes. ”
Cai Yan closed her eyes as she said, and Tang Zheng looked at Cai Yan, whose eyes were closed and her eyelashes trembled slightly, leaning over and kissing her lips. Cai Yan was attacked by Tang Zheng in the kitchen today, and his palms were a little prepared, but when his lips touched, Cai Yan's brain was still blank, and he could only let Tang Zheng do it.
Tang Zheng chased Cai Yan's little tongue, and after a while, Cai Yan was kissed by Tang Zheng and kicked angrily, and slapped Tang Zheng's chest with his hand. Tang Zheng reluctantly let go of Cai Yan, but Cai Yan lowered his head and ran home without saying a word. Leaving Tang Zheng alone outside Cai's mansion and smirking.
