Take eight eggs, reach out and beat them neatly in a bowl, then stir with chopsticks, then pour oil into the pan, pour the stirred eggs into it, then fry the egg skin, fry until golden brown, and then take out the eggs and put them on the cutting board and chop them, cut them into square sizes. Chopped meat, chopped leeks, and fried eggs are put together to make the filling of dumplings.

Xi Zien felt that standing in the empty front hall and facing a dog was a bit infiltrating, so he followed Li Jicai to the back kitchen.

It just so happened that he also wanted to see how Li Jicai usually cooked, and how these hands made strange and delicious things.

Although Li Jicai has repeatedly reiterated that she is just making the simplest dumplings, steaming can remove the cold, there is no need to have too much expectation, if Xi Zien wants to eat other delicious food, she can come to the store next time, she makes it for him alone, recently because of the decoration of the store, so there is no time.

Xi Zien stood next to the stove and watched Li Jicai doing all this with his hands and feet, which felt very peculiar.

Because he has never been in the kitchen, as the saying goes, a gentleman cooks far away, and he can't come to this kitchen a few times a year, and the kitchen at home is controlled by his mother, and he doesn't approach it half a step.

I've never seen anyone cook food very carefully, and he always comes down with clothes to reach out for food and open his mouth.

So today, Li Jicai's actions still make Xi Zien feel a little novel.

He even felt a little out of the ordinary that the two of them seemed to be husband and wife, Li Jicai was his busy wife, the two of them were just civilians and did not have a lot of money, Li Jicai was loyal and virtuous, and he couldn't sing and dance, he didn't have a good-looking appearance, he didn't have a graceful figure, and he didn't have a beautiful voice, but the two of them raised their eyebrows, you and I were whispering in the kitchen like this.

Perhaps, she will be wearing a small blue cloth skirt waist, and he will draw his appearance with a pen and paper beside him, and the wind and rain at the head of the bridge will be quiet.

Xi Zien looked at Li Jicai's side face and couldn't help but get into a sense, the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more messy it became, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt.

For a long time, Li Jicai didn't hear Xi Zien talking, and couldn't help but turn his face to look at him strangely, what's wrong?

Xi Zien met her eyes and was startled, and then came to her senses.

His eyes were full of surprise and disbelief.

No, no, no, how could he live such a life?

He is the son of Prince Yong, and his status is noble, how can he be compared to these commoners? To mingle with these civilians is to lose his identity.

Xi Zien couldn't help but take two steps back, wanting to make up for the mistake of being too close to her in time, and put on a cold appearance. He was about to ask her in a commanding and questioning tone, asking him why he was not so good until now?

Li Jicai had already bent his eyebrows, holding a spoon in one hand and a bowl in the other, and said to him with a smile: "Master Xi, go pour some vinegar, okay, okay, dumplings, hurry up, hurry up, I'm going to starve to death." The vinegar is over there. ”

Li Jicai pointed in the direction of the right-hand side, pouted, and motioned for Xi Zien to go over there to get vinegar.

"Ahh Xi Zien panicked, replied randomly, and then prepared to withdraw and get vinegar.

But I don't know what's going on, I tripped under my feet, and one of them was unstable and rushed straight forward.

Li Jicai was about to serve the dumplings that had been cooked in the pot, and when he saw Xi Zien's unstable body crashing into him, he subconsciously quickly stretched out his arm to pick it up.

The two of them bumped face to face, and Li Jicai was almost knocked to the ground by Xi Zien, who hugged Li Jicai and did not let him fall to the ground. Li Jicai's bowl fell directly to the ground, making a "clang" sound, and the bowl shattered.

Xi Zien's chin shell rested on Li Jicai's shoulder, and she was a little in pain, and she couldn't help but gasp, grinning for a while, and her eyebrows were wrinkled together.

"No, are you alright?" Xi Zien was stunned for a long time before he reacted, then quickly straightened him, stood up straight, and only let go of Li Jicai after standing firmly, then took a few steps back, subconsciously touched his nose, and felt a little embarrassed.

This, this he really didn't mean it.

Li Jicai smiled awkwardly and shook his head, looking at Xi Zien's burning gaze a little unnatural, so he dodged away.

The atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward.

Seeing Li Jicai like this, Xi Zien was also a little weak-hearted, and couldn't help but secretly hate why his feet were so stupid, how could he walk so well, and he could still trip over himself, is it a shame to be ashamed? !

When the eyes of the two people met, it was full of indescribable embarrassment, after all, at this time, they found out that the two of them were alone, and there was no one next to them, so that people could see it, and it was inevitable that they would be misunderstood.

The two of them stood silently for a long time, and neither of them had the intention of speaking first.

Li Jicai squeezed the spoon tightly, and it was estimated that it would be crushed if it was replaced by anything else.

Xi Zien secretly looked at Li Jicai, I haven't seen her for a while, she seems to have lost weight again, she was already quite thin, thinner than him, and now it seems that there is only a handful of bones left to the touch, and she has been having a hard time recently, right? Running around for this store.

After another while, Xi Zien took the initiative to ease the tension in front of him. "Unexpectedly, I'm going to get vinegar and go to the front hall to eat?"

"Well, let's go to the front hall to eat, the candles have been lit, and it shouldn't be so dark." Li Jicai came back to her senses from her stunned, she didn't think that Xi Zien would trip over her, and then bumped into her.

But fortunately, neither of them fell, but after being pounced by him like this, his shoulder still hurt a little, and he felt a faint chill in the back of his head, I didn't expect Xi Zien to look so thin, but in the end, it was a man, this impact.

The two of them had just hugged each other, and Li Jicai could even feel Xi Zien's breath spilling on her neck, some warm, some hot, and some made her feel scared and avoided.

My heart trembled a little.

Fortunately, Xi Zien took the initiative to speak, and covered these people's affairs as if nothing had happened, which also reminded Li Jicai that next time he should not be alone with a man, it is too embarrassing.

When they reached the front hall, Xiao Erhei screamed violently.

called back Xi Zien, who was a little restless, and Xi Zien subconsciously hid a little farther away.

I didn't know what to think, so I pulled a table and put it at the door.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, the cold wind was howling outside, and pedestrians could not see a few passing by, and the gate of Suiyuanju was gone.

"By the way, where's your door?" Xi Zien looked back, and Li Jicai walked over slowly with the dumplings.

"Doors? The door is here, but it hasn't been installed yet. Li Jicai put a bowl of dumplings on the table prepared by Xi Zien, then raised his head and said naturally.

By the way, put two pairs of chopsticks on the bowl, and then prepare to go back to the counter and bring two more small bowls, one small bowl for each person.

"You, you install the door yourself?" Xi Zien was a little stunned.

"That's right, I discussed this door with the master, and it has been built, and it is erected by the wall, don't you see?" Li Jicai's gaze fell on the corner of the wall, and Xi Zien followed her gaze.

The shape of this door, how strange is it?

When Xi Zien wanted to ask a few more words, Li Jicai went to greet him and asked him to come over and eat dumplings quickly, and the dumplings would not taste good after a while.

Smelling the aroma of dumplings, Xi Zien suddenly felt that his stomach was already gurgling. I'm so hungry! I'm so hungry! I've been waiting for her to cook until now.

Li Jicai took a small plate, then poured a part of the vinegar into it, then pushed it to Xi Zien, and poured some vinegar for himself and put it in the bowl.

She's extremely jealous, so she doesn't mind putting more.

"There is soup in the dumplings, it may be a little hot, eat it slowly." Li Jicai carefully instructed that she was afraid that Xi Zien would eat quickly because she was hungry.

Xi Zien resisted the urge to eat when he heard her words, what the cook said was to be heard, he was a diner, and if he didn't listen to the cook, he would suffer.

When you bite into it, the taste of leeks, the taste of meat, and the taste of eggs are intertwined. It is steaming hot, accompanied by the vinegar aroma on the dumpling skin.

I gently sucked some of the soup in the dumplings, but I still felt a little hot, and my tongue was a little numb.

But the taste is really good, not salty, not light, just right.

The snow-white dumpling skin is elastic, and it does not feel soft and chewy when eaten.

Delicious!

"Is it delicious?"

"Uh-huh." Xi Zien stuffed the dumplings into his mouth and it was a little hot, but he was reluctant to spit it out, Li Jicai asked him, he could only nod desperately, and then express his appreciation for her.

Li Jicai's eyes narrowed into a line with a smile, she saw that the mat was eating so happily, and she was also very happy in her heart.

For her, who now makes a living from cooking, she is happy that what she makes can be recognized by her guests.

In modern times, she was a delivery person, but now in ancient times, she has become a cook again, and this cook is still a half-baked cook.

A craft like hers would have gone out of business every minute in modern times, but it could have been okay in ancient times.

"Eat slowly, there is still in the pot, don't worry."

Li Jicai thought about it, vinegar alone is not enough, although the chili sauce she made herself is not enough, she can also take it out and taste it.

Li Jicai went to the back kitchen, then took out some chili sauce from the jar and brought it to the front hall for Xi Zien to try.

At first, Xi Zien didn't eat spicy food, but after eating at Lee Ji-chae's shop a few times, he felt that he could occasionally try such spicy things, which was very novel.

Li Jicai was afraid that he would choke on eating too much mat, and then reached out and gave him another bowl of dumpling soup.

After all, he cooked about thirty dumplings, the dumplings were quite large, Li Jicai ate ten, and Xi Zien ate about twice as many as her.

When the two of them were eating dumplings, no one spoke, as the so-called food is silent, Li Jicai naturally likes to abide by such rules.
