55 can't cook
Cheng Yun nodded, "That's natural, Brother Wen You has done something recently and has not succeeded, and I have not been able to do it but boasted about Haikou, which means that I still don't have enough strength, and it is normal to not be able to accept Brother Wen You's edification from time to time, but it is by no means forever, when I feel that I am strong enough, I will definitely come to invite Brother Wen You out of the mountain, of course, I hope that Brother Wen You can still give me this opportunity at that time." ”
Li Ru pouted, "I want to say that I have recently rebelled and failed to succeed, so you have to use what I just said to report to the official to arrest me; So I don't tell you to be false, even if it's true that I did something I didn't do, I don't believe you can do it. First of all, can you tell us about your living conditions since you were a child? ”
Cheng Yun was stunned, what kind of routine is this? "Of course, I have lived in the Cheng family since I was a child, my parents are the eldest brother, my aunt and my cousin are six, and my aunt usually helps to do housework, and when I was five or six years old, I came to Luoyang with my uncle, I did a small business with the Yang family and the Yuan family, and made some money, and now I live in Buguangli, and the family will have slaves and maids and housekeepers, cough no, no, I don't have a personal maid."
Li Ru didn't say the last sentence Cheng Yun, "That is, I haven't suffered anything since I was a child?" ”
Cheng Yun spread his hands, "Sort of, since I was a year old, with my teacher Yu Yin, I have always been a well-off family." ”
Li Ru smiled, "Then you are doomed, brother, the province said that I and Humble Jing joined forces to bully you, you go to Humble Jing yourself and ask her what I have done recently and failed, as long as you can succeed, I will accept your bet." ”
Cheng Yun looked confused, it's not appropriate for me to mix the love between you and your wife, right? I'm the old Cheng diagonally opposite the door, not the old king next door? Seeing that Li Rushen was mysterious and secretive, Cheng Yun was puzzled, so he could only come out to find the Li family.
As soon as he arrived at the door, Li Ru's voice came, "In order to prevent you from cheating, after learning about the matter, come back and ask me to watch your process." ”
Cheng Yun was shocked, huh? This is... Want to play so big?
The filthy heart is unknown, Cheng Yun found the Li family, the Li family was in the kitchen, and he was about to finish his work, when he saw Cheng Yun coming over, he hurriedly politely, "Oh, why did the guests come to the kitchen, they all said that the gentleman is far away from cooking, and the guest should go to the study to communicate with the husband, it is smoky and inappropriate." ”
Cheng Yun grinned, "Sister-in-law, who is out of the way, I have something to inquire about with you." Just now, Brother Wen You told me that he wanted to do something recently but couldn't succeed, and he was worried in his heart, so let me inquire about what the matter was, and I will help him staff and see if I can help him solve it. ”
Li Shi was annoyed, "Oh, how can you tell others about this kind of thing, this Li Wenyou is too big-hearted!" No, no, nothing, don't listen to his nonsense. ”
Cheng Yun is full of question marks, how can he feel that the dirtiness just now is so realistic? Hurry up and explain what happened more clearly, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, Brother Wen You is very talented, and the younger brother is in urgent need of a think tank, whether you can invite Brother Wen You depends on how this matter goes, and I hope that Mrs. Sister-in-law will give me a chance when she sees me in a sincere world, the sun and the moon!" ”
Seeing that he was pitiful, and Li Ru agreed, the Li family still said the matter, Cheng Yun looked confused, is this kind of thing so difficult to speak? How obscure and ambiguous is it to be? In broad daylight, it is clear that everyone can say that it can be done!
Li Shi saw the meaning in Cheng Yun's expression, and complained: "It's not that you scholars are pedantic? How could there be you without this kind of thing? ”
Cheng Yun and her have the same hatred, "Zi once said: food and sex, although Mencius said that the gentleman is far away from cooking, but he also wants to say that being a man must be benevolent and righteous, not that he can't cook and eat, this group of rotten Confucians can't represent scholars, and Mrs. Sister-in-law doesn't have to be angry, I think Brother Wen You is a good man at home, and he won't feel that he is not a gentleman because he cooks himself, so in order to show sincerity, I will also show you today!" ”
Li Ru didn't say it, Li was embarrassed to say that it was a, but it was actually a cooking? In the 21st century, not to mention that everyone cooks, adults still have to be able to cook the most basic, right? Not to mention the difficulty, soak noodles, cook a quick-frozen dumpling according to the instructions, cook a porridge and steam rice in a rice cooker, this is no problem, it is not a gentleman at this time, it is too strange.
There is no way, in this Han Dynasty, the Confucianism of the Dong Zhongshu Ram School is orthodox, and the little brothers of the Simeng School don't know where they are squeezed, what exactly does the gentleman in Mencius mean by Yuan Cooking, who cares about you? That's literal.
Just do it, Cheng Yun rolled up his sleeves and prepared to cook, and suddenly realized that the other people's meals had been prepared, look at Li Ru's appearance, he is not a family that can afford to eat a meal and throw it away, scratched his head, and replied to Li Ru first.
Back in the study, the two looked at each other strangely, and laughed in unison, Cheng Yun saw that he was also smiling, and asked, "Brother Wenyou, what are you laughing at, aren't you just going to cook." ”
Li Ru suppressed his smile, "I didn't expect it!" Can you be that big enough to make yourself a delicious meal? You didn't calculate that I would fail to cook and be taught a lesson by my wife! You said you can, you come, you come to me, I don't believe that you, a pampered young master, can still touch cooking. ”
Cheng Yun laughed again at this time, "Oh, my brother Wenyou, since you are so cute, I won't bully you, only if you win openly will you be convinced!" Let me tell you this, if we count the self-service barbecue after hunting as cooking, it will crush you at all, it's not interesting, you must not be convinced in your heart, okay, today for Brother Wenyou's next kitchen, since Brother Wenyou is not a gentleman, why should I be coy? ”
Seeing that Cheng Yun was so arrogant at a young age, Li Ru's arrogance in his heart also rose, "Okay, if you make a meal that can be praised by Clumsy Jing, regardless of the results of comparing the skills of others, how about I go out of the mountain to assist you?" But if in the future, I am better than you in the art of matchmaking, this apology is still necessary, and when the time comes, I will go or stay, and you can't interfere. ”
Cheng Yun was overjoyed, he himself was worried about how to compare the skills of people, compared to the short-term and long-term, he can win, but if he wins, there is a fart, he is short of people now and not in the future, hearing that Li Ruhao is going to do something, it is too comfortable, after all, the situation of winning steadily, how can he not agree? said "Okay" decisively, "Then, this is the beginning, I bring my own ingredients Brother Wen You has no opinion." ”
Li Ru signaled him to be casual, Cheng Yun gave up his hand and went to find Guan Hai, Li Ru followed closely, wanting to see what fancys this brocade-clothed noble son had to play.
Guan Hai got up early to practice martial arts, and he was dragged to the "Li Men Pile" early today and wasted an hour, and this was just half of it back, Cheng Yun ran back in a hurry, followed by Li Ru, Guan Hai subconsciously picked up the wooden gun and blocked Li Ru behind Cheng Yun, "Ah, what are you going to do!" ”
Li Ru's face was expressionless, but this hand startled Cheng Yun, "What do you care, is he not good for me?" Go and go, there is something to do, hurry up and wipe the sweat and work! ”
Guan Hai looked at Li Ru with an unkind expression, "What do you have to do?" ”
Cheng Yun took a flat drawer from the kitchen, "There are no ingredients in the kitchen, you go and let people ride horses to get them at home, I said you listen well, take the best soybean oil, the best refined salt, these two don't need to take too much, just take less, and the fine porcelain bowl I usually use for dinner, they don't know it, I don't know it, let my aunt help find it!" Just go! Send it to his house, I'll wait for you in the kitchen, I can't get it for an hour! ”
Li Ru smiled, "From here to Buguangli, it takes half an hour to ride a horse and gallop back and forth, and you have to take things for an hour, you are embarrassed for him, and why don't you let him go and let him find someone to go?" He's breaking our promise! ”
Cheng Yun waved his hand, "He is a tiger on the ground, a mouse on the horse, riding a horse is not necessarily faster than running, here to say that my statement is just to show him the attitude of 'I'm in a hurry', when have I punished him?" There is no way to punish him, I treat him as a friend. As for helping, he can help eat, and he doesn't have to worry about leftover cold rice, hahahahaha! ”
Cheng Yun didn't know much about cooking in his previous life, he only made some home-cooked meals, limited to ingredients, he prepared steamed corn rice, steamed eggs, and just saw that Li Confucian still had millet, eggs, and green onions, so it was the only way.
In the era of the Eastern Han Dynasty, what tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant beans, all none, fungus mushrooms, there are no dare to eat, the usual vegetables, that is, radish cabbage, beans, bean sprouts, if you have conditions, you can also eat some cucumbers, and if you don't have conditions, you may pick some wild vegetables, basically gone.
I have to mention that there is already tofu at this time, and basically the tofu process has been perfected, and the feeling is very similar to that of later generations, but there are still very few derivatives of tofu, and not every workshop will have tofu skin, bean chips, oil, bean skin, frozen tofu and the like.
However, when the dish of shallots and tofu is brought out, Li Ru has no choice but to beat Cheng Yun away, you Cheng Yun will be embarrassed, what is the difference between this kind of dish that can basically be made if you have seen it and cold radish shreds!
But if Cheng Yun is a good cook, he must have made a soup baby cabbage or something, but he has only eaten it, and he doesn't even know whether the baby cabbage is Chinese cabbage, baby cabbage or cabbage.
After the family brought refined salt, refined soybean oil, and refined porcelain bowls, Cheng Yun took out the steamed corn rice and began to make steamed eggs. What is this refined soybean oil? ”
Cheng Yun skillfully stirred the seasoning and sprinkled it with chopped green onions, although there was no sesame oil and monosodium glutamate, but in general he was already very satisfied, "Look at it, Brother Wenyou, let my sister-in-law and you taste my craftsmanship later." ”
