Chapter 186: Apology

So as soon as this plate of fish was put on the table, several pairs of chopsticks were stretched out at the same time, and a piece was picked up and put in the mouth.

In fact, because Gujia Village is next to a river, fish is not a rare thing for the people in the village.

It's just that although fish can be eaten often, not all people who cook have Uncle Zhao's good cooking skills, so the attraction of this dish is Uncle Zhao's cooking skills.

Sure enough, after everyone ate it, they nodded one after another, and some even said to their mother-in-law.

"Look at the fish you are making, why are you making it fishy and woody, and Lao Zhao is full of umami, so that people want to eat it after taking a bite."

Of course, his complaint was only exchanged for a white eye and a sentence from his mother-in-law.

"You can't stop your mouth from such delicious food, since you think Lao Zhao's cooking is delicious, you won't eat a bite when I cook in the future."

Such a husband and wife quarreled with each other, so that everyone laughed and ridiculed when they heard it.

Then when the third course was served, almost no one recognized what it was.

It looks like a scrambled egg, but what the hell is the green leaf inside, it doesn't look like a leek or a mustard green, what kind of dish would it be?

Some people pick up a pair of chopsticks suspiciously, and after smelling this fragrance, they feel a little familiar, some déjà vu, but they can't tell where they have smelled it.

But inexplicably it's very attractive, so I just put it in my mouth and tasted it, and then tasted it carefully.

The salty aroma of eggs is just in the mouth, and then the taste of the chopped and chopped leaves wrapped in it is felt on the tip of the tongue.

How do you describe its taste?

The mouth is a little bitter, but at the same time, there is a strange aroma, a magical taste that has never been felt on the tip of the tongue.

Even after swallowing the egg, the taste lingered in the mouth for a long time, making people feel a little unsatisfied.

I saw that the people who had eaten it were all half-frowning, as if they were recalling something, and Qi Ling knew that they were thinking about what the green leaves in there were.

Some people feel that the taste is a bit strong, and they don't like it too much, but they don't get bored either.

And people who like this taste feel that its taste is very special, so that people can't help but taste it again and again.

So this plate of scrambled eggs, as far as the eye can see, quickly emptied.

And the elders who sat at the same table with Hexiang's father and stepmother also felt that they liked this dish very much at this time.

They are all old people, and their taste buds have deteriorated a lot, so they like this strong taste.

The lieutenant couldn't help but ask Qi Ling what was in it, and decided to ask his daughter-in-law to cook it for him often after he went back.

Qi Ling saw that the people at the table were all looking at him with burning eyes, and he simply said it.

"It's not anything else, it's a stinky almond leaf."

"What? It turned out to be a stinky almond leaf, and I remember that it smelled particularly bad, and didn't it say that this thing couldn't be eaten? ”

Someone heard Qi Ling's answer and couldn't help but ask in surprise.

It's just that Qi Ling hasn't explained to him clearly that this stinky tree leaf is edible, and one person began to shout and make a fuss.

"What? This stinky almond leaf can't be eaten, isn't that poisonous, I said Qi Ling, what are your intentions, invite us to eat the banquet noodles, not only is it not good to entertain you, but you dare to ask us to eat this poisonous thing. ”

"If something happens to the child in my belly, you are responsible!"

"Daddy, child, I think my stomach is really starting to hurt, do you say that the child can't be saved!"

……

It was none other than Hexiang's stepmother, who was holding her stomach with one hand, but with the other hand, she hadn't stopped her chopsticks, and kept putting the balls in her bowl.

Seeing her like this, Qi Ling took a deep breath, suppressed the idea of hitting her, and explained.

"Don't worry, this stinky almond leaf is edible, but some people didn't like its taste in the past, so there may be rumors about it."

"I dare to guarantee that eating this thing will not cause any harm to the body, so if someone eats it and has any sequelae, it has nothing to do with me, it is all her own doing."

Qi Ling is not talking about someone else, but he is referring to something, and he is talking about Hexiang's drama queen.

Later, some people echoed Qi Ling.

"Indeed, don't worry, this stinky tree leaf is really not poisonous, I was hungry when I was a child, I used to eat a lot, and there was nothing wrong at all."

"Yes, I heard my mother say that when the stinky tree in our village was not cut down in the past, many people came back to life by eating it in the famine years, how could it be poisonous?"

Seeing that so many people said that it was not poisonous, everyone naturally believed it, but the next topic became what happened to this stinky tsubaki leaf that was still delicious at all.

Qi Ling saw that everyone was very interested in the stinky toon, so he simply brought the fried toon he made to the table.

"Everyone, this dish is also made of toon, that is, the toon is wrapped in batter and fried, and it tastes very good, you can taste it."

When everyone heard her say this, they quickly stretched out their chopsticks and picked them up.

Only the chief looked at the lotus fragrance queen mother opposite, with a dissatisfied expression, slammed the chopsticks hard, and spoke.

"You mother-in-law, we have a good meal on this table, you look at how much you have piled up in your bowl, don't say how much you eat, and you keep disliking the food with your mouth, I think if you do it again, you just don't eat it."

It's not that the lieutenant has to be mad, but he is really unhappy when he sees this person's behavior.

The women who used to eat at the same table with him were very polite wherever they looked.

It's just that today I met such a person who doesn't know how to be polite and doesn't humble his elders at all, doesn't it make him very angry.

Just now, when he and Hexiang Houniang caught the same fried toon, the man actually made a lot of effort and snatched the dish into his bowl.

And when he ate it, he still disliked Qi Ling's less, too stingy.

Whoever hears this will not be happy!

What's more, the way she was holding her stomach and shouting and making trouble just now made the chief even more unhappy.

Seeing that his face was black and he said angry words, Hexiang's father hurriedly grabbed his mother-in-law's hand, advised him, and asked her to apologize to the chief.

Father Hexiang felt that no matter what, the head of the village was also the biggest person in the village, and he could even drive the two of them out of the village.

If you anger him, there will definitely be nothing good to do.

And the last time Hexiang broke into a catastrophe, the governor had already warned them.

But when the lotus fragrance queen mother heard this, she glanced at her lips and showed an unhappy expression.
