Chapter Twenty-Three: Eating People with a Short Mouth
Since returning from the mountain, Rou Thirteen has been silent and has not paid attention to Chu Huanhuan anymore. She was broad-hearted, and only followed the method left by Rou Thirteen to pack up the looted materials one by one, but boiling oil made her feel worried. Chu Li's cultivation is profound, and he has been in the valley for a long time, and there is no stove room in the mansion. Seeing that this mansion was elegant and luxurious, it made Chu Huanhuan not good to build a fire on the spot, so he rested first and waited for Chu Lian to come back before he could be the master.
Early in the morning, Chu Huanhuan was busy, I don't know if it was because of the flow of spiritual power, even if she rested less, she didn't feel tired. The spices are dried in the sun and wind, which not only makes them easier to store, but also enhances the flavor. In less than an hour, all the spiritual plants that needed to be processed were paved.
I was about to rest for a while, and I would get some food later, when I happened to bump into Chu Li and rushed back covered in dust.
"Third brother, are you back?" Chu Huanhuan is now under the fence, but he doesn't care whether he is afraid or not, and he is also a little cautious to please.
"Hmm." Chu Li held a sword in one hand, his face was covered with frost, and there was still a murderous aura on his body.
When he stepped into the mansion, he still did not restrain his whole body, as if the jade-faced Shura was alive, which made people afraid to snoop. Seeing Chu Huanhuan's restrained and frightened appearance, Chu Lian eased his face and put away the long sword. He remembered that Chu Huanhuan would never get up so early. When he was a child, he stayed in bed all day long, and he was the youngest in the house, and Mrs. Chu, who wanted to be strict, also let it go, not to mention Princess Huixian, who loved her daughter.
Even if he entered the palace and broke into a catastrophe, after returning home, he was reluctant to beat and scold, and only let him copy the Analects a few times, and it was over.
"Why do you wake up so early?" In the face of Chu Huanhuan, Chu Lian has never hidden his state of mind, and he will speak directly if he has something to say.
"I ..... I'm worried about the third brother....." Chu Huanhuan blinked, it wasn't nonsense, after all, her biggest backer now was Chu Li.
"Yes......" Chu Lianren had long legs, and he arrived in front of Chu Huanhuan in a few steps, and touched the top of Chu Huanhuan's head with a big hand with a little chill.
"Third brother, I've grown up." Chu Huanhuan was touched uncomfortably, she was not the main owner, but as if she was a thief with a weak heart and stole other people's things. Of course, more importantly, she can't treat Chu Li as her own brother, and her sense of disobedience is too strong.
"Hmm." Chu Li not only did not move his hand away, but even rubbed Chu Huanhuan's little head with a little force.
"By the way, where is the third brother's stove room? I'm a little hungry. Chu Huanhuan was forced to bear it, so he had to divert Chu Lian's attention.
Chu Lian looked dazed for a while, obviously forgetting that Chu Huanhuan was not a monk and still needed to eat. But there was no stove room in the mansion, which made his cold eyebrows a little more tangled. Chu Huanhuan observed his words and looks, and obviously felt Chu Li's embarrassment. But the Liuyun Sect used to accept slaves before, just to serve the disciples who had not yet opened the valley, food and clothing.
It stands to reason that the Liuyun Sect should also have a place similar to the Treasure Room.
"I'll get it for you." Chu Lian was entangled for a while, but he still felt that it was better for Chu Huanhuan not to leave the mansion.
"Third brother, I have hands and feet, you take me to recognize the way, you can't take all three meals a day by you." Chu Huanhuan didn't know what Chu Di was worried about, didn't she just take something to eat.
"Why not?" Chu Li asked rhetorically a little incomprehensibly.
"Ah......" Chu Huanhuan didn't expect that Chu Li really spoiled his sister: "But I've grown up, don't treat me as a child!" ”
In the end, Chu Di still couldn't resist her, and he took her sword for the first time. Chu Huanhuan is not afraid of heights, but the first time she was in the air without any protection, that subtle sense of weightlessness and fear, no matter how calm she was, her hands were in a cold sweat. Chu Li asked her to hug her waist, how dare she, her two hands only dared to gently pull Chu Li's belt.
I don't know what Chu Lian thinks, she didn't take care of her anymore after taking off, Chu Huanhuan only felt that the scenery under her feet had become blurred, due to inertia, after Chu Lian accelerated, the whole person hit his back. She was so frightened that she clung to Chu Li's back, and her scalp was numb. What about the pampered sister who said it was good? Doesn't your conscience ache with your accelerated movements?
Chu Li was bumped, and the person was still as tall as a green pine, his clothes were fluttering, and his long hair danced in the wind. He turned his head slightly, and his always cold eyebrows and eyes actually revealed a little smile, Chu Huanhuan opened his eyes with difficulty, her third brother did it on purpose. Why didn't she think Chu Li was a person with a bad stomach before?
When Chu Huanhuan got off the sword, the whole person was sweating, and Chu Huanhuan's sword was only related to his mood, which made Chu Huanhuan dare to be angry and dare not speak. Chu Li helped her and entered the dining hall. Unexpectedly, it is lively here, with many people coming and going, and there are many people who come to eat. However, when Chu Li came in, no one greeted him.
"They all have their own places to serve, and they don't recognize me as normal." Chu Lian saw what Chu Huanhuan was thinking.
"Oh, third brother, I want to borrow the small stove here for a while."
"Why?"
"Oh, third brother, you can help me."
The request was not too much, Chu Li went to the backyard, the steward recognized him, and was about to pat some sycophants, but he was strangled in the cradle by Chu Li. Seeing that Chu Lian couldn't please him, he was a smart person in charge, and he was respectful to Chu Huanhuan. gave a small stove room alone, and wanted to give Chu Huanhuan a hand, but Chu Huanhuan refused.
Chu Huanhuan was not used to being stared at and doing things, so she asked Chu Lian to find a clean place and let her be in the small stove room by herself.
She already has a lot of experience in making fire and cutting meat, and she can use spiritual power, so she is not tired of doing heavy work. A lot of boiling lard has to put a little water, so that the lard that is not easy to paste out is bright and beautiful. Taking advantage of the boiling oil, throw the sweet potatoes and corn to the edge of the fire with the skin, and save the province and start a new stove.
She plans to make meat oil at the same time as scallion oil.
"You're diligent."
Rou 13 stared at the pot of lard, bubbling and bubbling, and saw that she had prepared the ingredients needed for scallion oil.
"Yo, aren't you afraid of my third brother?"
When Chu Huanhuan saw that he arrived at the Liuyun Sect, he rarely came out, and he didn't know what he was afraid of. After seeing the snake from the mountain, something was wrong with him. She also knew that if he didn't plan to say it, he wouldn't be able to ask anything.
"What is the deity afraid of him?" Rou Thirteen looked contemptuous, obviously not taking Chu Di to heart.
"The leaves of the Roselle tree, can you grow spiritual veins if you eat them? That's too easy, right? Chu Huanhuan asked the question he was most concerned about.
"Tsk...... Call you stupid, but you still don't believe it. Rou 13 said: "A leaf is a blind eye, that is, a blind eye." Eat this leaf and you will be able to conjure up what you want. It's just to deceive other people's eyes, but in fact, you don't have any gadgets that deceive people. ”
"Equivalent to a trick?" Chu Huanhuan came back to his senses.
"The more advanced tricks are not easy to see through by high-level monks, and there are no side effects." Rou Thirteen is slow, most of the time he is in this state.
The work in her hands did not stop, and she quickly reconciled the dough, and the pot light hand was light, and the three lights were considered good noodles. The dough is rolled out into a thin dough and cut into noodles with a knife. Rou 13 disliked the fire too slowly, and directly flicked a spiritual fire into the stove, and the lard quickly changed from a turbid state to a clear liquid.
Freshly boiled lard, divide a part, put in the processed chives, boil until the shallots are browned, and let them cool and seal for dish preparation.
"I underestimated you, but I know a lot." Rou 13 saw that this oil was not badly done.
"At first, I thought you were joking, but you knew you were really going to teach me how to cook." Chu Huanhuan still thinks that this is a disguise.
"Your physique, you don't need to cultivate anything, you can advance just by eating supplements. Where there is such a good thing in the world, you can steal it for yourself. Rou 13 finally said why.
"What?" Chu Huanhuan didn't think about it because of this reason.
"Well, there are many wonders, in the future, I will teach you well."
Rou Thirteen left these words and disappeared again.
After Chu Huanhuan blanched the noodles, he passed through the cold water and mixed with the freshly boiled scallion oil. Peel and cut the roasted sweet potato corn into cubes and place on a plate. The fragrance wafted far away, and Chu Ling, who was sitting outside, pushed the door in, and saw a few plates of food on the table. They look like ordinary ingredients, nothing special, but they are fragrant, and the oily noodles and soft sweet potatoes and corn are unexpectedly appetizing.
"Third brother, you came just in time, can you taste my craftsmanship?" Chu Huanhuan made two servings, but he didn't know if Chu Lian appreciated it.
"When are you ....... Will you do this? Chu Li sat down, but there was obvious distress in his eyes.
"Taste it." Chu Huanhuan excitedly handed chopsticks to Chu Ling.
Because there is no soy sauce in scallion oil noodles, Chu Huanhuan had to put more salt when cooking the noodles, and sprinkled a little extra chili powder to stimulate the aroma with hot scallion oil. Chu Lian hadn't eaten for a long time, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be used to eating and hurt Chu Huanhuan's heart. Unexpectedly, after entering the mouth, I was slightly surprised by this spicy taste, even if it is an imperial meal, there is no such taste.
"It's delicious." Chu Li paused and praised very seriously.
"Great, I'm afraid it won't suit the third brother's appetite." The faint worry in Chu Huanhuan's heart dissipated a little. Originally, I was afraid that it would not suit the tastes of this world, but it seems that food will be popular no matter where it is.
After a full stomach, I put away the rest of the materials, and the dishes and chopsticks are handled by my own housekeeper.
"Oh, Miss Chu's cooking skills are amazing! No one has ever smelled a dish that can emit such a fragrance. I wonder if Miss Chu can give me some advice? "The people in charge are all human spirits, and when they saw Chu Huanhuan and the others coming out of the small stove room, they dared to step forward to intercept them.
"Well, I won't have to trouble you in the future, and I'll borrow it again tomorrow." Chu Huanhuan also has the heart to make connections, and it is not a matter for her to work alone.
"Huanhuan." Chu Li didn't expect her to come again.
"Third brother, I have my own plans." Chu Huanhuan whispered.
