Chapter 59: Deliciousness and Surprise
"My son-in-law actually doesn't have any other hobbies, and he hasn't eaten anything good since he was a child, so he always thinks about making good food. Thinking of this vast mansion of 3,000, it only takes six feet to sleep at night. The family has a lot of money, and the eclipse is no more than three meals. Sometimes putting aside all those fame and fortune and concentrating on taking care of yourself and your family is actually the happiest thing......" Li Ming raised his glass and said as he saluted Xun Qi.
"Hahahaha!" Xun Qi immediately laughed when he heard this, "It's still a virtuous son-in-law who can see it!" ”
"Although this is simple, it is also a wise saying!" Xun Yu was also very satisfied with these words, he admired Li Ming's freedom and ease, but it was a pity that as a son of a family, he could not agree with this concept.
Only when you are in this circle can you understand that there is an undercurrent surging in this circle. In fact, there are no pure friends around, everyone is just a honey-bellied sword, just waiting to take a bite on you.
Li Ming said a sentence before, and they agree very much: Going out is to cross a single-plank bridge with thousands of troops, and squeezing out one counts as one! The higher you go, the fewer you are, but the more enemies you have! But be careful not to become the one who is squeezed down!
"Father, the dishes are cold!" Xun Cai looked at them there politely, and immediately said dissatisfied.
"Let's have a taste!" Xun Qi smiled when he heard this, and finally got off the chopsticks, according to the rules, if he didn't get off the chopsticks, then everyone present would naturally not get off the chopsticks.
Xun Qi initially tried stir-fried pork belly with ginger, but he didn't eat it directly into his mouth, and he knew very well what this pork belly was. This kind of dirty thing, why does Li Ming use it to cook, the key is that it is so fragrant, this is what he is really curious about.
Immediately, he happened to see Xun Cai pick up a piece, put it in his mouth and chew it, and the more he chewed, the more fragrant it became. Immediately curious, I put it directly in my mouth, and finally ate it.
A smell of incense swept in instantly, and there was no imaginary smell or stink, but a mellow smell. Or maybe it's still the taste of pig, but it's completely different from the pork in my memory. Ginger does not erase the taste, but rather purifies the taste.
"It's so delicious, I didn't expect it!" Xun Qian nodded, this kind of delicacy is no less than roasted lamb or fish belly.
"Lamb skewers, what's this smell?" Xun Qi picked up a string of mutton skewers, and the taste of cumin came to his face, only to feel that this strange taste was so compatible with mutton.
I put it in my mouth and chewed it, but I felt that my mouth was fragrant, and there was no smell of mutton at all, even if it was not lamb. The key is this strange fragrance, I didn't expect it to really match with roast mutton so well, I feel that such mutton skewers, how much to eat is not enough!
When I came back to my senses, I had completely eaten five skewers of mutton. As a scholar of scriptures, Xun Qi has not eaten so quickly in front of people for a long time, and he feels a little embarrassed.
looked up at the crowd, and found that everyone was immersed in the delicious experience of eating, and they didn't notice his embarrassment. In fact, Xun Chen and others had already found out, but it was naturally not good to embarrass their father, so they simply pretended not to know.
The point is, these dishes are really delicious, and they also go well with rice, and after a bit of corn and rice, I just feel that I can't get enough of it, and I order someone to bring a bowl. Come to think of it, it seems that this has never been the case before.
"Virtuous son-in-law, this chicken seems to be called a flower chicken, but I don't know why it got its name?" Xun Qi was most curious about the last meat dish, that is, this dish called flower chicken, and actually used lotus leaves, so he looked up and asked.
"Speaking of which, I'm afraid that my father-in-law will dislike ......," Li Ming replied a little embarrassed.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Xun Qi smiled, the smell of this chicken was fragrant and delicious, but he smelled it and moved his index finger.
"My son-in-law used to be with homeless people, and once when I was really hungry, a man named Hanako, who was actually a beggar, took me to eat this roast chicken!" Li Ming smiled bitterly and said the background a little, but fortunately it didn't disappoint everyone's appetite, and even Xun Yan looked at it with interest, hoping that he could continue.
"In fact, chickens are not raised by beggars, but stolen from other people's homes. He was a beggar himself, so naturally he couldn't get salt and a stove, so he simply killed the chicken with sharp stone chips, cleaned the internal organs directly, and stuffed them back.
Finally, the hair is smeared with mud to make a mud shell, and then it is buried in a shallow pit and a fire is burned on it. After a long time, the clay shell was smashed open, and the chicken feathers were directly brought down by the clay shell, but the muscles were extremely tender.
In fact, the son-in-law is also made on this basis, wrapping the marinated chicken with lotus leaves. Compared with it, it has a little more fragrance of lotus leaves, but it is a little less original! It can be regarded as commemorating the life-saving benefactor, so the son-in-law also called this dish called Flower Chicken! Li Ming said slowly.
What really regretted him was that there was no penalty for the delicious bonus this time, although it was already very delicious, but Li Ming was even more curious, if he could get the delicious bonus, what kind of delicious food could he create.
"I didn't expect to create this delicious dish just because of the dilemma of the beggar, it's interesting!" Xun Qi laughed, the appearance of this dish was definitely an accident, but I didn't expect it to be carried forward.
"The wisdom of the people is endless, and with good guidance, they can create infinite possibilities. Only when more people are invested in it, will food, clothing, housing and transportation become more and more colorful, and Dahan can usher in a real prosperous era! Li Ming also had a feeling.
"Oh, the virtuous son-in-law's words are quite novel!" Xun Qi smiled faintly, but his tone was somewhat stiff.
"That is, the son-in-law was just feeling it at the time, and he smiled!" Li Ming hurriedly replied.
Even if you are stupid X, you know that if you praise those people in front of the family, won't you get along with yourself? This must be changed! If you want to mix in this era, you have to change! Yes, I am the son-in-law of the family, so I should think in the interests of the family!
The banquet finally dispersed, and Xun Qi was quite satisfied with Li Ming's attitude. After all, Li Ming came out of a poor family, and it is not surprising that he has a special feeling for the people, but fortunately, his position is quite firm, so there is no need to worry about anything anymore.
If he continues to insist on this point of view, I am afraid that he will not be able to enter their circle in this life.
"Speaking of which, Cai'er? The dawn is about to go on the expedition, why don't you come to see him off? At the gate of Xun Mansion, Xun Qi looked left and right and asked.
"Miss said she couldn't bear to watch her uncle leave, and she had already returned to the room!" Xun Cai's maidservant hurriedly replied.
"Virtuous son-in-law, my daughter ......" Xun Qi hurriedly confessed.
"It's okay, Cai'er's thoughts, I understand!" Li Ming smiled, got on the horse and left.
Back in the army, this place has entered the final finishing stage, tomorrow will be officially the camp, and then we will go to Yingyin. Li Ming returned to the camp tent and ordered someone to fetch water to come over, bathe and change clothes to rest.
"My lord, how about I come and bathe you?" A female voice came, and Li Ming suddenly looked back, but he didn't think it was Xun Cai.
