Chapter 137: The Robbery
"Lord Wang, this dish looks very peculiar, I'll taste it for you first." Yuwen Zhengji couldn't help but be very surprised when he saw the newly served cucumber peel, cucumber is common, he has never seen a peel. This thing looks weird, but I think it's very tasty.
"Yuwen Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, you and I have known each other for a long time, don't treat me as a guest," Shen Tuwen said as the chopsticks were already handed over, and half of the dishes were taken away at once.
Yuwen Zhengji was so anxious that his head was on fire, and Jiang Jiang deliberately didn't make much of each dish, because the time was limited, in order to ensure that the taste of each dish was appropriate, so a small portion was used. Plus it's only two people who eat, so there's no need to waste.
Although the portion of each dish is not much, the dozen or so dishes add up to a considerable amount.
But for the two people who are dining, there is no dish before they have eaten enough.
Shen Tuwen and Yuwen Zhengji ate cucumber peel for the first time, and this refreshing and crisp taste conquered these two people at once.
So, the two of them then fought over the only few cucumber shreds and a few pulls left on the plate.
"Lord Wang, I'll clean up this little bit of leftover cold dishes." Yuwen Zhengji smiled humbly on his face, but the strength in his hand did not relax at all.
"Frugality is a virtue, and this king must be the first to set an example." Shen Tu's face was sanctimonious, but the hand holding the chopsticks was bruised, obviously competing with Yuwen Zhengji.
"Lord Wang, there are still a few dishes that have not been served, so you can save your appetite and taste the following dishes!" Yuwen Zhengji has a look on his face that I think about you.
"Prince Yuwen doesn't have to worry about this, this king has a good appetite today, and he can eat all the dishes in the back alone." Shen Tuwen said indifferently.
"Prince, this dish is West Lake beef soup." The maid carries a large porcelain bowl of West Lake beef soup made with the finest beef and tofu.
Tofu is very common in modern times, but it has never been seen in the Great Qin Kingdom, because people do not know that soy milk is combined with salt brine or gypsum to form a solid, so although soy milk is common, they have never eaten tofu.
"Hey, this dish is so original." Yuwen Zhengji immediately turned his attention to the new dish, and Shen Tuwen took away the remaining cucumber peel with lightning speed.
Yuwen Zhengji hurriedly scooped up a spoonful of beef soup and put it in his mouth, because he was in too much of a hurry to eat, he was scalded, but he refused to spit it out, not because he was afraid that it would be rude to spit it out, but because the taste of this dish was so beautiful.
Shen Tuwen didn't rush to grab Yuwen Zheng this time, because this large plate of beef soup would not be eaten for a while and a half, not to mention that the temperature of this dish was very high at a glance, and if you ate it too quickly, it would be scalded.
Then when tasting the food that follows, the taste will be affected.
In addition to these main dishes, ginger also spent a lot of thought on the staple food, and specially prepared four items.
They are pretzels, longan wontons, crystal siu mai and mara cakes.
It is used to deal with Shen Tu's steady and tricky appetite.
"Lord, Son, these are the four staple foods, please use them slowly," the maid who passed the meal respectfully put down the four staple foods, and then carefully stepped aside.
"These staples are so lightweight!" Yuwen Zhengji praised loudly with food still stuffed in his mouth.
"How does this pie look like it's made of noodles? And this ravioli, which looks really small and beautiful, and what is this thing? It looks like a money bag, but it's transparent, so it's so beautiful! And this cake looks fluffy and fluffy, and it must be delicious. ”
Shen Tuwen was also attracted by these four staple foods, and each of them seduced his index finger.
This little obstacle is as if God tailor-made it for himself, and this cooking skill is just aimed at his own picky appetite, and the more satisfied Shen Tu Wen is with Jiang Jiang in his heart, the smile on his face is more obvious.
Because each staple food is divided into two portions, there is no need for the two people to fight, and Yuwen Zhengji also said seriously: "Lord Wang, please use it slowly, if you don't like it, leave it to me." ”
"Yuwen Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, the amount of each staple food is very small, this king can deal with it alone, even if it is not very appetizing, he can eat it reluctantly." Shen Tu had no hope at all, and he didn't leave Yuwen Zheng for himself.
Wishful thinking, there are only two pretzels and silver silk cakes each, each only two inches in size, only four longan wontons in each bowl, only four crystal siu mai, and only two slices of mala cake.
With such a small amount, the taste is already gone after a little taste, how can there be leftovers?
In addition, Shen Tuwen had already eaten nine points full at this time, so he tasted the staple food in a leisurely manner.
In fact, according to his habits, he is only seven points full all the time. The situation of eating nine points full and still eating like this has never happened in his life.
Yuwen Zhengji was eating while thinking about how to let Jiang Jiang teach the cooks in his house to cook these delicacies, because he knew that it was impossible to let Jiang Jiang often cook for himself.
However, Yuwen Zhengji also knows Jiang Jiang's character, once he begs her, he must be ready to be used by her.
Yuwen Zhengji himself is a businessman, and he doesn't feel that doing this is unjust, on the contrary, the people who do it are all smart people, and since they take what they need, they have peace of mind.
"Lord Wang, are you satisfied with this meal?" After the meal, Yuwen Zhengji returned to his previous respectful appearance, as if the person who was fighting with Shen Tuwen for food was not him at all.
"Thank you for the careful hospitality of Prince Yuwen, this king is extremely satisfied with this banquet, it is really worth the trip." Shen Tuwen also restored the previous high state of being high above and not eating the fireworks of the world.
If Jiang Jiang saw the whole process, he would definitely be unable to help but roll his eyes.
"Then please move to the teahouse," Yuwen Zhengji stood up and invited politely: "Walk slowly to the tearoom, just enough to eliminate food." ”
The two men got up and walked out of the dining room, and then the maids came in to clean up the dishes.
"Our son and prince eat really clean!" A few maids couldn't help but whisper: "This plate doesn't need to be brushed." ”
At this time, Jiang Jiang was also eating in the back kitchen, and he was about to starve to death after a busy morning.
She didn't cook many of those dishes, but she made a lot of staple foods.
Invite those who help to eat with themselves.
Those chefs also asked Jiang Jiang for cooking skills, Jiang Jiang's eyes rolled, and he thought that Yuwen's character would definitely let him teach them, so he said haha: "Eat first, eat first, I'm really hungry." ”
What she planned was to use this opportunity to knock on Yuwen's bamboo pole again.
