Qiu Yizhi turned her head to look at the rude and willful little girl He'er again, and saw that she had a pair of big eyes, as if she was looking for a flaw in it, but she looked at it for a long time, and still didn't find the slightest flaw in this set of Jun kilns, so she had to answer Uncle Lin with hatred: "Your tea bowls are nothing special, and they are no better than the few Ru kiln azure bowls that my family uses to eat tea on weekdays." ”

Before He'er's words fell, Wen Lingjiao said angrily: "Okay, don't show your treasure, are you afraid that others won't know that you are rich?" If you have this skill, it is better to hurry up and boil water to make tea, if you delay any longer, I am afraid that the meal will be served. ”

When He'er heard this, he quickly agreed, took out a bag of tea from the bag on the back of the donkey he was sitting on, and walked to an iron pot to concentrate on boiling water.

After a while, the water was already boiling, He'er saw this and counted out the tea leaves one by one, put the same number of several in the porcelain tea bowl on the table, and waited for the boiling water to cool down a little, then took a small spoon, and soaked the tea very gently.

All of a sudden, the fragrance of tea in the pergola was overflowing, making people clear and refreshing.

He'er seemed to be quite confident in her tea art, and she was very satisfied with the smell of tea, nodded and said: "I'm in a hurry, I didn't bring special tea-making props, so I can only make do with it because it's ugly, let's make do with it." ”

Qiu Yizhi was half the master, so he beckoned Wen Lingjiao, Lin Shuhan, and Wu Ruofei to sit down, counted the extra bowl of tea in addition to Yu Chi Jiming, who went out hunting, and beckoned Yang Ying'er to come over and drink tea together.

However, Yang Yinger felt that she was just a private woman, and it was inconvenient for her to sit down, so she refused to come.

Qiu Yizhi is an easy-going person, so he is no longer reluctant, he raised the tea bowl in his hand, blew open a few pieces of green tea leaves like beautiful jade, and took a sip gently. In an instant, a warm current went straight into Qiu Yizhi's internal organs, diluting all the remaining poisons in his body, and the slightly green aroma emitted by the tea filled his entire body and mind, making Qiu Yizhi involuntarily close his eyes, and his limbs, which were still stiff and numb, were as comfortable as if they were swimming among the clouds.

Lin Shuhan is also a person who is well versed in the tea ceremony, smelling the aroma of this tea, he knows that this is a rare good tea, and seeing Qiu Yizhi's intoxicated appearance, he can't wait to take a sip, let the tea wander in the mouth, but he can't bear to swallow it, until the essence of it is finished, then he is in his stomach, and he can't help but admire: "No matter what the character and knowledge of this little girl is, this tea ceremony has entered the realm." ”

Wen Lingjiao also knew that this "Mr. Bansong" Lin Shuhan was a person who Qiu Yi admired very much, and he couldn't always face each other coldly, so she took this opportunity to grab a conversation and said: "It's really rare that the craftsmanship of this little girl can be praised by 'Mr. Bansong' so elegantly and secludedly." If there is a fate in the future, the little girl will invite her husband to come to me to taste tea, presumably there will be no such haste as now, and the tea will taste better. ”

Although Lin Shuhan is arrogant and uninhibited, he is not a sophisticated person, seeing that Wen Lingjiao took the initiative to hand over the ladder, he took the opportunity to say: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." At that time, I will also ask Miss Wen for advice on the teachings of your religion, and listen to the merits of it and the sayings of the saints. The words unconsciously brought out a bit of arrogance.

While several people were talking, Yu Chi Jiming took two personal soldiers and staggered down from the mountain, except for herself, who carried a dead wild boar in one hand, the other two each carried a fawn and a wild goat, and walked to the pergola.

Seeing this, Qiu Yi immediately got up and stepped forward, and said: "Ji Ming is really extraordinary, he has such a harvest for the first time hunting, and he is worthy of being born in a martial arts family!" ”

Yu Chi Jiming is a little girl after all, and when she heard this praise, she immediately smiled: "What is this, I see that there are a lot of wild animals in the mountains, if my uncle gives me a few more people, I guarantee that they will not return empty-handed." ”

Yu Chi Jiming said as he threw down the two half-dead wild boars in his hand, walked to the table of the eight immortals under the pergola, picked up a tea bowl and drank the tea in it.

It's a pity that He'er, who bothered to make tea, saw him frown and said, "Sister Weichi, this tea ...... This tea is not drunk like this! ”

Yu Chi Jiming ignored it and said, "The temperature of this tea is just right, and the taste is good, but it's too little." As he spoke, he raised another tea bowl, swallowed the tea in it, and asked He'er, "You made this water?" It's very thirst-quenching, is there any? ”

If she had met someone else, He'er would have had a seizure, but she knew and seen this Wei Chi Jiming's methods, and said with a frown: "This tea is very delicate, and it can't be too hot with the first water, and the second and third dishes have long lost their taste, where can I still drink it?" ”

Qiu Yizhi smiled and said: "He'er, just refill Ji Ming's water, she will never blame the tea for its bad taste!" ”

After that, the whole pergola burst into laughter, and only Yu Chi Jiming, who didn't know what was going on, scratched his scalp and didn't know what to do.

After such an episode, the atmosphere between everyone has eased a lot.

Wu Ruofei saw that Yu Chi Jiming had called a few mountain treasures, and knew that these were all fresh wild things that were rare to see in Jinling City, and they could not be easily destroyed by violence. Therefore, she was not too dirty or tired, and with the help of Yang Yinger and He'er, she slaughtered and cleaned up these beasts.

Wu Ruofei saw that a few main ingredients had been packed up, pondered for a while, and said to Qiu Yizhi: "Childe, these beasts are all excellent ingredients, but it's a pity that we don't have seasonings such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar with us...... There are a lot of rice and noodles and dry food I just carry, why don't I make dumplings for everyone to eat? ”

As the saying goes, "it's better to eat dumplings than delicious", so that the object can only be eaten during the New Year - so the army heard that today can be in the mountains and forests, and there is still a mouth to eat dumplings, they have cheered.

Seeing this, Qiu Yi naturally did not object.

So Wu Ruofei instructed a few people to dig wild vegetables in the mountains, and he started to chop the meat of several wild beasts into seeds, mix them together, and when the wild vegetables were ready, they were stirred into stuffing. Then he took out the flour and made it into dumpling wrappers, and then wrapped the dumplings one by one.

Everyone was already hungry, and seeing that although Wu Ruofei's hands and feet were nimble, after all, he was one person to feed so many people, and the speed was really not fast enough, so they came up to help.

In this way, in less than half an hour, everyone had already wrapped nearly 300 dumplings and put them in boiling water one by one to cook.

After a while, the pot is already filled with a mouth-watering aroma. After another cup of tea, the dumplings cooked in the pot were fully cooked, tumbling up and down in the boiling water, like a white rabbit jumping around.

Qiu Yizhi is the first to do it. He didn't wait for people to be served, so he scooped up a bowl of dumplings, picked one up with chopsticks, blew hot air on the side of his mouth, and sent it to his mouth—only to feel that in the delicate and capricious dumpling skin, the flavors of pork, venison, and wild vegetables wrapped in each layer but blended together in his mouth were emanating from his mouth - and suddenly his lips and teeth were fragrant.

Qiu Yi ate a few more, only to feel that the deliciousness in his mouth, the aroma in his nose, and the warmth in his stomach were intertwined, sweeping away all hunger, heat, and fatigue, and his whole body was indescribably comfortable. He couldn't help but devour several more, and the Five Organs Temple was already full of tribute, but he still felt that he could eat a few hundred more.

So Qiu Yizhi's legs didn't obey the call and walked to the side of the big pot, holding a spoon and just about to fish dumplings in the pot, only then remembered that everyone hadn't moved and only watched him eat alone - Qiu Yizhi's face couldn't help but blush, and he hurriedly beckoned everyone to come over and eat this delicious food.

Everyone saw Qiu Yizhi's wolf-like expression, they were already hungry and salivating, and when they heard Qiu Yizhi come to greet him, they all rushed to grab dumplings to eat.

In this way, the sound of pots and pans, chopsticks and spoons colliding with each other in the pergola is a symphony, and it seems to be playing a very active movement.

To say that Wu Ruofei's cooking skills are really unusual - Wen Lingjiao, the saint of the Tianzun Sect, has traveled from south to north, pampered and pampered, and has eaten many delicious foods in the world, but today I am full of praise for tasting such originally ordinary dumplings.

As for the ten hard-born soldiers under Qiu Yizhi, they were even more "lost in their souls".

In particular, one of the "iron-headed Jiao" actually shed tears while holding a bowl, and cried hoarsely with a male duck voice: "I have never eaten such a good thing in my life, if there is no such good thing in the future, then ...... Then you might as well die! ”

Wu Ruofei listened to it on the sidelines, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Why does this strong man need to be like this? If you really do things for Qiu Gongzi, I will cook for you every once in a while, and it is okay......"

When the "iron-headed Jiao" heard this, he raised a smooth head, stared at Wu Ruofei with tears, and muttered in his mouth: "Miss Wu is so merciful and compassionate, she is really the reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and my 'iron-headed Jiao' has not lived in vain in this life......" said, and actually cried out loud.

Seeing this, everyone first looked at each other, and then burst into laughter.

But in the blink of an eye, more than 300 dumplings have been eaten.

Qiu Yizhi saw that everyone was still unsatisfied, so he ordered Yu Chi Jiming to go into the mountains to hunt, and asked Wu Ruofei to make more than 300 dumplings, which made everyone happy.

At this time, it was already sunset, and the surroundings were gradually getting dark.

Qiu Yizhi thought that this place was in the mountains after all, and in addition to poisonous snakes and beasts, there might not be no robbers and thieves who came to harass him.

So he ordered his own soldiers to gather more firewood and grass beside him, light a bonfire to drive away the wild beasts, and ordered ten personal soldiers to be divided into five groups to take turns to keep vigil to ensure safety.

And because Wu Ruofei, Yang Ying'er, Wen Lingjiao, and He'er were daughters, and it was inconvenient for them to sleep outside, he ordered someone to vacate a carriage, together with the one that Wu Ruofei was riding, for the four women to live and sleep. The rest are men, naturally not so particular, they like to sleep on the ground and lie on the ground, and those who are not used to sleeping use the Eight Immortals Table to build a temporary bed on it for the night.

After such a night, it was very peaceful.

At dawn the next day, Qiu Yizhi called everyone, drove the car, and set off along the road in the direction of Shanyin County.

There was no obstacle to this trip, and the walk was very smooth, but after five or six days, he had come to the foot of Shanyin County.

Originally, this Shanyin County had gone through a small military disaster, and the people could not help but be a little frightened after being harassed, even if it had been two or three months, it was still a little depressed.

One of Qiu Yi's horses took the lead, passing through the city gate that was blackened by the flames inside and outside, and saw that one of the soldiers guarding the gate was one of his own personal soldiers, so he smiled and ordered: "Hey, what are you looking at! Why don't you go and report to you Zhao Tou, and say that the county master is back! ”
