Chapter 11: Gourmet

A fragrance is refreshing, and smelling it makes people feel like they want to be fairy.

When Wan'er rudely kicked the door of the stove open, the smell of the smell made the little girl's body shocked, the nose was fragrant, the lungs were smooth, and the mouth was full of relish, looking at the two plates of green vegetable tofu and garlic sprouts on the stove that had just come out of the pot and were still steaming, Wan'er swallowed and foamed hard, and even forgot her original intention of breaking into the door.

"It smells so good! It's just two plates of ordinary home-cooked food, how can there be such a fragrant and unbearable aroma that I can't wait to swallow them directly? ”

Standing in front of the door of the stove room, Wan'er's eyes were shining with starlight, and the thief looked at the two plates of side dishes, completely ignoring the other person who was preparing the meal on the side.

Hearing the sound of the door, Tang Xiu glanced back, and then turned back casually, working in the space for a long time, he was already so hungry that his heart was close to his back, how could he have the time to pay attention to a little girl liar who had not yet grown.

At first, he thought that he was in the Northland, and the food at home must be pasta, but he didn't want to let him find half a jar of rice in the kitchen, which made him overjoyed, and he fried two side dishes in the empty space of steaming rice.

The green vegetables are ready-made, the corner of the courtyard was specially opened by the previous subordinates to a vegetable garden of about three points, in the early spring, although there are not many vegetables that can be planted, but it is better than fresh, and it is poured by the spring water in the space by Tang Xiu, and it becomes verdant and dripping, and it is coveted.

The bowl of rice was full of sharp points, Tang Xiu took a deep breath, and the long-lost aroma of rice made his empty stomach a little empty. Good rice with good water, the steamed rice itself is a rare delicacy, Tang Xiu picked up the chopsticks and couldn't wait to pull two bites into his mouth.

Leave a fragrance in your teeth, cool!

Tang Xiu half-squinted his eyes and chewed carefully, although it was still a little worse than the special rice in his previous life, but it was much better than the gruel wotou he had eaten in the Tang Mansion in the past half a month.

A mouthful of green vegetables, a mouthful of rice, a very rhythmic gobble, in the blink of an eye, half of the rice in Tang Xiu's bowl was missing, and the two side dishes on the stove were also half a point each.

Wan'er, on the other hand, was still stunned, seeing that Tang Xiu had wiped out half of the food that looked delicious, she opened her mouth to stop it, but she didn't know what to say when the words came to her mouth.

How can the lord in front of him say that he is also the master of the Tang Mansion, the entire Tang Mansion, including herself, can also be said to belong to him, what can she do to stop him from eating the food he has made?

What's more, a chef who can make such a fragrant meal, even if he is not the young master of the Tang family or the husband of the young lady, Wan'er doesn't want to have a bad relationship with him.

"What's the matter, Wan'er, what are you doing standing here?"

Pei Cai'er walked in from behind, looked at Tang Xiu who was eating in the house, and then looked at Wan'er, who was standing at the door staring at Tang Xiu and the food in Tang Xiu's bowl and still swallowing and spitting, she didn't feel a burst of amusement, she knew that Wan'er's greedy problem had been committed again.

It's just that Pei Cai'er glanced at Tang Xiu, and couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart, according to Wan'er's gluttonous temperament, how could the two plates of home-cooked side dishes in front of Tang Xiu make her so distracted?

Pei Cai'er is used to living a difficult life, and her requirements for food have always been just for food and clothing, and she doesn't have too much appetite, so the food made by Tang Xiu only smells better and smells better to her, and there is nothing else. So it was difficult for her to understand Wan'er's current behavior.

"Miss, do you smell it, the two dishes that my uncle cooked are simply... It's absolutely stunning! Wan'er's eyes never left the two plates of small dishes on the stove for a moment: "That plate of small green leaves, although the fire is a little old, and the corners of some vegetable leaves even have some burnt black marks, but it can still exude such a pure and unmixed sweet fragrance, which is really rare, and people can't help but want to put it in their mouths and savor it." ”

"And that plate of garlic sprout eggs, although the appearance is extremely bad, and none of the eggs can even be called tender and soft, but they can exude such a pure garlic and egg fragrance together, I really don't know how my uncle made it......"

"And there is that rice, I have eaten our rice several times, whether it is porridge or steamed, but I have never seen or smelled the unique fragrance it exudes now, even the Dingxianglou of Taiyuan Mansion can't make such a pure rice......"

As she spoke, Wan'er couldn't help but swallow and spit again, eager to step forward and kick Tang Xiu away directly, snatching all those weird delicacies into her hands and tasting them.

"Is it as amazing as you say?"

Pei Cai'er raised her nose and sniffed lightly, and then shook her head a little confusedly, the incense is quite fragrant, and it is indeed easy to arouse people's appetite, but she can't smell the things that Wan'er said in her mouth.

"Forget it," as soon as she saw Pei Cai'er's expression, Wan'er knew that what she had just said was playing the piano to the cow, and waved her hand lightly and said, "Miss is not good at food, so it's not surprising that she can't smell it." But Miss, are you sure that your uncle's family has never been a chef or opened a restaurant before? ”

Wan'er's eyes unconsciously aimed at the food on the stove again, in just a few words, the plate of green vegetables and tofu had already run out, and the garlic sprouts and eggs were about to be lost, Tang Xiu's eating speed was really faster.

"That's all nonsense." Pei Cai'er reprimanded Wan'er softly, and said: "Although the Tang family is not a scholarly disciple, it can be regarded as a good doctor for generations, it is said that the old lady Tang also saved the life of Emperor Taizong more than ten years ago, otherwise where do you think the hundred acres of fertile land in the mansion came from?" ”

"These Wan'er all know, but how can my uncle, who is a medical student, make such delicious food? As far as my uncle's skill is concerned, even the cooks of Dingxianglou can't be compared. ”

"Who knows."

Pei Cai'er turned her head and glanced at Tang Xiu, she didn't expect Tang Xiu, who was unlearned and unskilled, to have such a hand. Didn't you say that the gentleman was far away from cooking, why was he so handy at this? It is said that according to the Tang family's previous wealthy family background, why can't it be his turn to let a young master cook in person?

And Wan'er's mouth is notoriously precise and picky, although she can eat coarse tea and light rice in order to fill her stomach, but she has never tolerated real food, and she can pick out this or that shortcomings and faults at will, and can make her eat a meal that is completely satisfying, at least Pei Caier has never seen it.

But she didn't want to, Wan'er would have such a high esteem for the two side dishes that Tang Xiu made casually today, and she became so fascinated just by smelling it.

After eating three bowls of rice in a row, Tang Xiu touched his belly and burped with satisfaction, and then put the chopsticks down and walked directly to Pei Cai'er's master and servant.

"There's still a little left in the pot if you want to eat, I'm not as stingy as some people."

After saying a few words sarcastically, Tang Xiu walked out of the stove room with his hands behind his back and a leisurely face, leaving Pei Cai'er's master and servant looking at each other.

"Thank you, uncle!"

Wan'er reacted quickly, thanked her sweetly, and rushed to the stove with a "whoosh", lifted the lid of the wok, and saw that there was really a little green vegetable tofu left at the bottom of the pot.

"This dead girl, she can die if she is reserved!"

Pei Cai'er cautiously turned her head and glanced out of the door, and saw that Tang Xiu had already walked away, and she didn't notice Wan'er's embarrassing behavior in the house, so she sighed, and hurriedly closed the door casually, and whispered down this little girl who didn't know the rules.

"Sure enough, as I imagined, it is delicious in the world, rare in the world!"

A vegetable leaf, Wan'er put it on the tip of her tongue and tasted it for a few breaths and was reluctant to swallow it, hearing Pei Caier's counting sound, the little girl woke up from her intoxication, swallowed the vegetable leaf whole with a "coo-dong", sighed and did not forget to recommend it to Pei Caier: "The real delicacy of the world, Miss, you really don't want to taste it?" ”

"Wan'er, you don't seem to have cleaned your hands when you came out of the silkworm room just now, right?"

"Uh, is there one?"

"Yes."

"Hmm......"
