Chapter 105: Shi Lei, possessed by the God of Song
People in today's Tang world seem to have some similarities with later generations, that is, many people only like to eat lean meat and are not very interested in fatty meat.
It seems that there is an official, probably a character like Liu Xingshi, who hates fat so much that he has issued a rule that if someone commits a crime in the local area, other punishments will be ignored first, and the criminal must be forced to eat a large piece of fat. The next time you do it again, you will stuff more fat meat into your mouth. I don't know if the local crime rate will increase a lot because of this.
Shi Lei felt that the reason why he didn't like to eat fatty meat was that the taste was not good. Just look at Cheng Chumo's appearance when they faced braised pork and hooves before.
As long as it is delicious enough, there is no need to worry about fat and thinness, especially for a pure foodie like Cheng Chumo, the big hoof that even the bone marrow has been sucked clean is proof.
However, considering that among the guests, there are still ladies, such as plump figures, so they may pay more attention to Cheng Chuyue in this regard, and the little princess who probably has no clear feelings about this, Shi Lei still got some pure lean stuffing.
Dumplings made with fillings like this don't seem to taste as fragrant as other fillings, so it's better to use them to make wontons.
In the Tang Dynasty in history, there were already dumplings and wontons.
Later generations have unearthed dumplings from the Tang Dynasty, and the dumplings of later generations have grown a virtue.
In the literature, there are also records of walking the streets and alleys with picks and making freshly cooked wontons.
Therefore, Cheng Chuyue and the others were not surprised at all when they saw dumplings and wontons, but they had few opportunities to do it themselves.
At this time, with a little fingering from Shi Lei, he can do something decent. Of course, except for Cheng Chumo's rammer.
The dumplings he wrapped were either too little filling, or after there were too many fillings, the dumpling skins couldn't be pinched together, and he was blind to those big hands like a fan.
In the end, I can only do some manual work such as kneading dough and rolling skin, and help out.
Cheng Chuyue's performance, compared with her brother, is two extremes, which is called ingenuity.
The dumplings wrapped out are thin and filling, and the shape is beautiful, and all kinds of common shapes can be easily used.
also specially wrapped some Shi Lei called bean worms, or fish-shaped, as well as ingot-shaped dumplings, some with lace. It's a waste of thought when you look at it, just looking at it like this, it makes people very appetizing.
The Yu Linglong sisters, unlike these pampered guys, are very quick with their hands and feet, and the people who have been working are of course different.
It's just that there are fewer tricks, but after seeing Cheng Chuyue do a few, they have all learned.
And the well-behaved sisters are just working hard, and they don't mean to say goodbye to Cheng Chuyue at all.
Cheng Chuyue is not very concerned about herself, and she can also give a smile to these sisters from time to time.
Soon hot dumplings and wontons will be served, and things like vinegar and garlic are naturally essential.
Recently, I got some chili oil that Cheng Chumo and the others ate beautifully, and I just saw if they would eat it.
It's not good that with the addition of hot taste, this spicy taste can make them cry.
Of course, the combination is good, the spicy taste, and chewing a mouthful of oily dumplings, can play a complementary effect, and it will definitely make people appetite.
One dumpling at a time, he can't satisfy Cheng Chumo's big mouth, and occasionally he has to stuff two of them, put them in his mouth and chew them together, which makes people worry about his mouth and choke himself to death again.
But it seems that his throat and eyes are thick enough, and he will all go in with a grunt.
Shi Lei and they are actually not slow to eat, at this time the heat is not a problem for them, so they killed a plate of dumplings, and there is no need to wait for the dumplings to get cold.
After packing up my things, a group of people chatted there. I'm so full that I can't agree to my stomach if I want to move.
"I think you should go to Luzhou by water, all the way down the river, it is much more comfortable than taking the land route and crossing the mountains and mountains." Shi Lei suggested.
Even if you don't think about Cheng Chumo, you have to think about your daughter-in-law Cheng Chuyue.
"Okay, anyway, if you take the waterway, you can still carry more things."
Seeing that everyone else nodded in agreement, Cheng Chumo also agreed, and did not insist on his stupid proposition.
It was this reason that made Shi Lei feel a little depressed, this is what he meant.
It's just that he thinks that he is about to say goodbye to his future daughter-in-law, and it has only been hot for a few days, and Shi Lei always has a faint sadness.
The performance is more obvious, but it is a sentimental little son, thinking of separating from her intimate big sister Cheng Chuyue, her little mouth is pouting, her big eyes are red, and she looks like she wants to cry.
"I can't control my power of the wilderness, watch me be possessed by the god of songs."
Seeing the expression of the little son, Shi Lei felt that he had to do something quickly to divert the attention of the children, or let her really cry, it would be difficult to coax her.
Therefore, deliberately exaggerated expressions and body movements, the attention of the little son was immediately attracted.
Of course, Shi Lei can't sing songs like "outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road, outside the sunset mountain", although it is very appropriate for parting, and it can also appear that he has a lot of connotation, and it is often used by many traversers, but it is contrary to Shi Lei's purpose of this meeting, and the little son must not cry immediately after hearing it.
With such a turn in his mind, Shi Lei thought about it. Thanks to the experience of taking care of his niece in his previous life, Shi Lei also learned a few cheerful children's songs, which is suitable for use at this time.
“…… I'm going to pluck the most beautiful flowers
Dedicated to my little public act
The king called me to patrol the mountains
I'll turn the world around......"
Shi Lei sang and danced, and his interpretation was naturally "The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain", which had been very popular for a while.
The word is relatively simple, playful, and joyful as it sounds.
What's more, there is the same popular mountain patrol dance, the movements are simple and cute, and Shi Lei can also draw it completely.
When Shi Lei sang the second paragraph, the little son who had already burst into tears and laughed had already jumped off the stool, followed Shi Lei, and learned to dance together.
The little face was red with excitement, and there was still a little sadness of parting.
Seeing Ji Cheng's Shi Lei, he danced the mountain patrol dance to show more style/coquettishness, amused the little son non-stop, and ran over to pull Sister Chuyue's sleeve and asked her to dance together.
Of course, Shi Lei wants to help, pull his daughter-in-law into the water, and everyone in the province only looks at his own jokes.
In the end, Cheng Chumo and An Yuanshou were not spared, and Li Zhi joined the dancing team early.
It's just that Cheng Chumo's actions still seem a little too clumsy, and he inevitably becomes the object of everyone's ridicule.
Happy times always go by quickly. Under the reminder of the waiter, Li Zhi and the little son should go to rest.
The brother and sister, who were already tired of dancing, were already a little sleepy when they stopped, but they still greeted everyone very politely, and then went back to sleep.
Shi Lei and the others looked at each other and smiled, and finally made the two little guys happy.
