Chapter 37: The Taboo of Eating
I groaned.
Looking down at the braised pork in the bowl, the fat and thin are five or five points, the oil color is very ruddy, and the sugar color is wrapped on the surface of the pork, anyway, the bright red light.
Stretch out the chopsticks and gently clamp them, and the meat will split in an instant.
The heat came out of it, it looked salivating, and I couldn't smell the slightest scent.
At one point, I wondered if I had a problem with my sense of smell.
Looking at the bright color of the meat, I was indeed very like taking a bite, and the lady on the side said, "Eat, the braised pork should be eaten while it is hot, otherwise it will be tired of eating it cold." ”
Pick up the piece of meat and watch the soup drip from it into the bowl.
It seems that when you take a sip, you can immediately feel the delicious taste.
I got closer, sniffed closer, but there was still no smell coming out of it.
In the horror movies I watched since I was a child, these things are either made of fragrant wax or made of insects, in short, these things should not be normal things to eat.
In horror movies, anyone who eats these things almost ends well.
The shadow of my childhood still reminds me again and again that I can't eat indiscriminately.
So, I embarrassed my wife.
"I'm sorry, I'm not a fan of fatty meat."
With that, I put the braised pork back in the bowl.
Looking at the braised man who was caught by me, Madame's face was slightly unhappy, but it was only a moment. She quickly returned to normal, and also sandwiched a piece of braised pork for herself, put it in her mouth and sipped it, and immediately showed a very comfortable look.
Madame smiled at me: "Women, eat more fatty meat, good for your skin." ”
I continued to explain: "Well, I'm really not used to the taste of fatty meat, I'm a little tired of it. ”
Seeing that I didn't eat, she stopped pressing.
After a pause, she pointed to a dish next to me: "Why don't you eat this, steamed sea bass, the meat is delicate, and the wild ones have no fat at all." ”
I looked at the fish and couldn't help but admire the cook.
The whole fish is curled up, and the shallots cut into thin strips are piled on the back of the fish, making the fish look like it is playing in the water, and the soy sauce is poured around it, and a layer of sesame oil floats on it, which makes the whole fish crystal clear.
I smiled at the woman again: "I'm sorry, I've not eaten much fish since I was a child, I'm afraid of fish." ”
Steward Zhou on the side came up and explained: "Miss, this fish is wild, it is fought in the river, it is not a fish from a mud pond, and it is not fishy at all." ”
I thought about it: "Then I don't eat it, that, I don't eat what swims in the water......"
When Mrs. heard this, her face pale, and after that, she sandwiched a piece of braised winter bamboo shoots in oil and gave it to me: "You can eat this, it's natural, it's not fishy, it's dug out of the ground, it's fresh." ”
I groaned.
I had been spinning in my mind for a long time, but I really couldn't say anything to refuse.
At this moment, I saw some green and white green onions floating on the braised winter bamboo shoots, so I immediately found a breakthrough: "I haven't eaten onions and garlic since I was a child, I'm afraid of smell, and I can't sleep at night." ”
See that I don't eat this, I don't eat that.
Madame's face finally couldn't hold back, she glanced at Steward Zhou on the side, and suddenly said something like this:
"Steward Zhou, what's the name of the newly invited cook?"
"It's called Xiuzhen."
Madame sighed, she took a bite of stewed winter bamboo shoots in oil, then wiped her mouth and put down her chopsticks: "Call her out, I want to talk to her well, what kind of dishes are cooking, none of them meet Tang Xiaofan's requirements, let her eat it." ”
As soon as I heard it, I hurriedly said no.
Madame shook her head: "I'll let her come out, meet with you, you tell her what she wants to eat, and let her make it immediately." ”
Steward Zhou had already gone to the back kitchen, and I looked back at the woman who brought me in.
She was looking down at me, too.
On the pale face, the two red rouges were more gorgeous than before, and they looked even more terrifying.
At the corner of her mouth, there was still a strange smile on it, and I could see the top of my head tingling.
Madame continued to eat.
She eats in a very particular posture, leaning forward slightly, holding chopsticks in her right hand, and holding her chin with a handkerchief in her left hand.
I'm a lot rougher than her.
However, this woman eats, someone waits for her, and someone makes a big table.
As for me, I'm going to have a casual meal with my dad and I'm busy taking care of the guests.
Life is different, I can't be delicate even if I think so.
Just thinking about it, Steward Zhou came back, and behind him, sure enough, there was a woman, dressed in light yellow clothes, with her head down, and she couldn't see what she looked like.
As she approached us, the barking of the dog, which had just disappeared, instantly resounded again.
Hearing the barking of the dog, the woman looked up and looked outside:
"Why is the tiger barking again, what's wrong with it lately, it's noisy day and night, take time, let people go and see, is it sick?"
The woman nodded and said yes.
Steward Zhou came over, led the woman behind him, and said to Madame, "Madam, she is the new cook, Xiuzhen!" ”
Immediately, he turned his head to look at the woman in yellow and reminded him: "Xiuzhen, this is our wife, call someone quickly!" ”
Xiuzhen lowered her head and called out to Madame.
Her voice was small, thin, like the buzzing of mosquitoes.
Mrs. put down her chopsticks: "You are Xiuzhen?" ”
"Yes, ma'am?"
"Where are you?"
"I'm a native of Qingshen County."
"Natives?" Madame touched her mouth and looked at Xiuzhen fixedly: "Why haven't I seen you before?" ”
"Xiuzhen has been learning to cook with her father since she was a child, and she rarely goes out."
Madame finally didn't ask any more, and she pointed to the table full of food:
"Xiuzhen, the dishes you cook are quite in line with my taste, but our Tang Xiaofan doesn't seem to like it very much, this is your problem."
Xiuzhen nodded: "That's right, I didn't take care of Miss's taste." ”
It's good to know, Madame nodded with satisfaction:
"Ask Miss, what do you want to eat? Then hurry down and make another one, she's satisfied, and you can stay, you know? ”
"Yes, Su-jeong understood."
After saying this, Xiuzhen walked to my side.
She also learned what she did just now, and saluted me respectfully: "Whatever Miss wants to eat, Xiuzhen will do as instructed." ”
Seeing her approaching, I quickly stood up and waved my hand: "I really don't need to, it's troublesome to cook, and besides, I'm not hungry......"
At this moment, the woman in front of me raised her head, and at that moment, I saw her clearly.
She turned out to be Xia Hong......
