Chapter Eighty-Six: I Have No Right to Refuse
Shi Zhijun smiled: "Let me see if it's okay in your kitchen?" ”。
"Of course, please come here!"
So, once again, everyone was gorgeously forgotten aside. Wu Ling'er looked at Bella's back as they left and muttered quietly: "If Shi Zhijun is allowed to seduce Bella, what do you say is her chance of releasing water?" ”
"Don't even think about it, it's not in Chengdu! If it weren't for her avid love of wine, she wouldn't be where she is today, do you think she would give up her hobby for someone's sake? If that's the case, she's not her! Brother Ying hit Wu Ling'er angrily.
Wu Ling'er wasn't surprised: "I guessed it a long time ago, just kidding!" We've been here for a long time, and she hasn't come up with the question yet, she's just busy with her cooking, doesn't she know that we're in a hurry? ”。 With that, she let out a big sneeze.
After everyone came to the living room together, Brother Ying asked Wu He and Xiaohua, "Have you remembered the taste, taste, and fragrance of today's noon?" ”。
Xiaohua and Wu He both nodded, and even Ye Tian and Nalan Wandering also nodded, indicating that they remembered. Only Wu Ling'er was confused: "What are you doing with those?" Isn't it just a meal? ”。
In the face of such Wu Ling'er, Brother Ying decided to ignore her directly, and continued to everyone: "The pairing of wine and food at noon today is likely to be Bella's standard, and if she asks questions next, everyone should try to lean on this." ”
"Well, Bella's taste is light, so I don't like wines that taste too strong, and the wines she chooses are basically low in degree." Ye Tian first said how he felt.
Xiaohua also nodded: "Bella prefers floral wines, and I don't like wines with mineral and leather smells." ”
"That's right, the taste of the water is not ordinary hard water, it is soft, and the taste is relatively soft!" This is Wu He's summary.
Nalan Wanderer hesitated for a moment and said, "I personally feel ...... Bella she has no special preference for the origin of the wine, and the wine at noon today is not only French wine, but also Italian and German wine. In this case, we have a wider range of choices! ”
After hearing everyone's comments, Wu Ling'er was dumbfounded: "It's just a meal, don't you?!! "One meal, all Bella's preference for wine? These guys are terrifying, aren't they?
Brother Ying glanced at Wu Ling'er dissatisfiedly: "Do you think everyone is like you, they only know how to eat?" ”。
"I ...... I only know how to eat! Wu Ling'er originally wanted to refute Brother Win, but in the end she found that she had no way to refute it at all, so she had to admit it obediently!
Seeing Wu Ling'er's aggrieved face and the expression of being bullied, everyone suddenly couldn't stand it: "Brother Win, Ling'er is not good at these things, you don't need to talk about her like that!" Originally, these things are what we are good at, and it is normal for Ling Er not to know! ”
"Ling'er hasn't been exposed to these before, so don't be too strict with her!"
"It's okay, I'll try my best to help Ling'er, Brother Win, don't blame Ling'er!" In the end, even Nalan Wandering, who was not very talkative, opened her mouth to help Wu Ling'er speak, and Brother Ying let her go: "Whether Bella is intentional or unintentional, in short, we have a general understanding of her preference for wine and cuisine today." After that, it's up to her to see what kind of exam questions she makes! ”
Wu Ling'er was lying on the sofa: "I hope it's not too difficult, I don't want to get drunk anymore!" In fact, what Wu Ling'er was really afraid of was not drinking, but being a little afraid that these wines would bring her some strange memories. It stands to reason that those memories shouldn't be something she can have, but she just saw that if wine really has such magic, after this incident, Wu Ling'er will never touch wine in her life.
Brother Ying seemed to see what Wu Ling'er was afraid of, and he said: "If the test questions this time are really like what Anthony said, then it doesn't matter if you drink it or not, anyway, as long as our group of people find the right wine, you can announce the answer!" ”
Wu Ling'er shook her head: "If you can take the test on your behalf, I will let you fight before, and I don't need to drink like that!" Now that they've set the questions, I have to do them all! As long as you help me narrow it down, I'll find the answer I want on my own! ”
As soon as Wu Ling'er's words fell, applause rang out from the door, everyone turned around and saw Bella standing at the door with a smile, while Shi Zhijun was holding the lemon meringue pie he had just made: "The dim sum for afternoon tea is ready, Xiaohua, do you want to make a pot of tea?" ”
Xiaohua glanced at the pie in Shi Zhijun's hand and said, "Darjeeling black tea!" With that, he walked out.
Bella walked up to Wu Ling'er: "Miss Wu, you made me look the other way!" I think I can probably understand by now why both Charlie and Anthony like you so much! You're a girl you can't help but like! ”
was praised by Bella like this, Wu Ling'er immediately felt a little embarrassed: "You praised me, I just followed my own will to do things!" ”
In the face of Wu Ling'er's words, Bella just laughed and did not speak.
When Xiaohua brought the brewed black tea, Shi Zhijun nodded with satisfaction: "Xiaohua, it seems that you really have a very keen sense of cooking!" ”
"Huh? Isn't it just a pot of tea? What can be seen in this as well? The coffee came over curiously and smelled it: "It smells so good!" ”
Xiaohua poured tea for everyone with a smile: "Because considering the number of people and the size of the teapot, I put one more teaspoon of tea leaves than usual, and only half of the boiling water is added to the teapot, so as to maintain the fragrance and taste of the tea to the greatest extent." ”
After everyone shared the black tea and pie, Bella looked at the people present and said, "Okay, I know, if I don't announce the exam questions, I guess you won't be able to stay here with peace of mind." Considering Miss Wu's father's physical condition, I made the decision to compress my exam questions into one. But! This topic is not simple! ”
After a short pause, Bella looked at Xiaohua and Wu Ling'er: "I heard that you went to Japan some time ago, so you must be familiar with Japanese food. My exam question is, I will cook a Japanese meal, and I will tell you all the names and ingredients of the dishes, and I want you to serve them with the most appropriate sake within a week. ”
Wu Ling'er was stunned for a moment: "Pair a meal of Japanese food with the right wine?!! How much does that cost? ”
Bella took out a small notebook from her pocket: "These are some of the dishes I thought of when I saw Xiaohua cooking, first of all, the appetizer is boiled with green tea and anglerfish, and then the fish dish, tuna, and meat dish, ......"
After Bella said a series of names of the dishes, Wu Ling'er raised her hand: "Miss Bella, your question is even more difficult than the previous six questions combined!" According to you, we need to prepare at least six kinds of wine! ”
Bella smiled and closed the small notebook in her hand: "That's right, it's six kinds of wine, but I allow you to make mistakes five times, that is to say, these six wines, as long as you have one wine that meets my standard, I will count you as passing!" What do you think? ”
Looking at Bella's smile, Wu Ling'er was a little helpless: "I don't have the right to refuse at all!" ”
"So what?"
"Accept your challenge, of course! Throwing in the towel without trying has never been my style! One in six chances, and with so many friends helping me, I don't believe I can't do it!! ”
Facing Wu Ling'er's energetic answer, Bella nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, I still have something to do today, so I won't accompany you, the kitchen can be used at will, and as for the wine in the wine cellar, you can also use it at will." ”
Probably because the exam questions are much more difficult than before, Bella is also much more lenient than Anthony in the use of the wine cellar. It is precisely because of this that everyone breathes a sigh of relief. But when they came to the cellar, they realized how much pressure they were on, and it was no easier to find six bottles of wine from the three cellars, which contained thousands of bottles, than to find a needle in a haystack.
After dinner, after returning to the living room, Wu Ling'er lay on the sofa a little deflated: "It's so difficult!" Those dishes...... We haven't eaten once in Japan, okay? Why do you want to pair them with wine? It's delicious even if it's not worthy!! 55555555…… I'm so pitiful!! ”
"Ling'er, don't cry! Coffee hurts you!! Coffee, I wanted to hug Wu Ling'er, but I didn't want to be carried away by Brother Ying: "Idle people, wait, don't get in the way here!" ”
