240 Sometimes, an honest man is never a compliment
Tao Jinhua's house, Yunxi was busy preparing for the noon banquet in the kitchen.
All the dishes are ready.
Now the aunts who help the cook, holding an iron wrench, take out the lotus leaf chicken that has just come out of the charcoal, and the outer layer of burnt dry soil is very strong, and none of the mud balls have cracked, all of them are intact.
The demolition work required the use of iron plates to smash through the strong earthen fortress outside.
As soon as the aunts smashed the soil, a smell of spices or the fragrance of taro wafted out, and some of the aunts were violent, and after dismantling it, they grabbed it hard, and directly oozing out the soup of the chicken inside.
The aroma of the chicken itself, which had been sealed in the dirt all night, was finally released.
The aunts, while handling the mud, said:
"This fragrance, I can't wait to shake the juice outside the lotus leaf."
"yes, it's so fragrant, it's a famous chef."
"You guys take the lotus leaves in it slowly, don't spill the soup."
"Yes, don't waste the soup, let's take off the lotus leaves and pour the soup into a bowl later."
"It's so fragrant, this smell, it's so fragrant that my mind is full of chicken now, and I don't want to do any other work."
"I'll take the lotus leaf chicken I took out first, and you knock it first."
"Don't go over and steal food, do you hear me?"
"Oh, don't worry, you will never steal food."
After speaking, one of the assistant cooks walked to the kitchen with a large iron plate and eight cracked lotus leaf chickens inside.
After helping the cook walk away, she was still muttering:
"There are only ten tables in total, how to get sixteen chickens, this will definitely not be edible."
The aunt has been attracted by the fragrance, and now her mind is full of how to eat chicken.
When I arrived in the kitchen, I had just cut the thin steel wire with tongs, and I was about to take the chicken, when the fragrance suddenly came out, and the fragrance directly occupied the entire nasal cavity, releasing the fragrance all the way.
The aunt smelled the fragrance, and her saliva came out directly, but fortunately she wore a mask, otherwise she would be embarrassed.
My aunt's mind is full of chicken, and I want to eat it now, but I can't wait to eat it at noon.
The aunt instantly seemed to be hypnotized, and her mind kept echoing:
Tear this fragrant chicken apart, tear it open and eat it. ’
The aunt's hands peeled the lotus leaves, while looking at the leaking chicken, directly grabbed the chicken's legs, and gently tore the two different directions, directly separating the chicken.
The chicken stewed in lotus leaves is very tender, and the torn chicken looks oily and shiny, without the coarse fiber of the chicken, and it is very tender when it looks like.
As soon as I tore open the chicken, I saw the taro wrapped in the chicken's belly, the taro has been smothered by the chicken juice, and it looks like a whole piece, as long as you use chopsticks or hands to grab it, the taro will be scattered directly.
The taro is very sandy and noodles, with a soft rustling taste, full of chicken juice, and it is called a cool thing to eat.
The aunt looked at the torn chicken, and the smile that could no longer be hidden at the corner of her mouth under the mask, just by looking at her eyes, she knew that the aunt was now smiling.
This enticing chicken is placed in the lotus leaf.
The other aunt held the peeled lotus leaf chicken, and just walked to the kitchen, and hugged it directly according to the fragrance.
Watching one of the sisters tear the lotus leaf chicken apart, the others said:
"Wow! The smell is really intoxicating. ”
"Since you're drunk, go while we'll eat."
"Huh? Isn't it, we're going to eat this chicken? Not okay? Eh, I eat chicken wings, don't grab them from me. ”
"Look at you like that, don't you want to eat too, why are you pretending to be like that."
"Let's eat, in case there aren't enough chickens at noon."
"Isn't it stupid, let you be the boss lady, the overall intelligence has dropped by half, you count how many there are, Lao Tao only runs ten tables at noon, you see, sixteen are burned, it doesn't matter if we eat one."
"It's just, let's eat one."
When they were talking, one of the aunts was full of chickens, she was closest to the chicken legs, looking at the meaty chicken legs, the saliva at the corners of her mouth couldn't help it, and the audience analyzed it like this, so let's eat this chicken.
The aunt picked up the chicken leg directly, and said while preparing to eat:
"Really? If that's the case, you're welcome. ”
After speaking, the assistant chef directly picked up the chicken thigh, put the chicken leg in her mouth, and the meat of the chicken leg was all taken away, and when it came out, only the chicken leg bones remained.
The tender taste of the chicken thighs in the mouth, the stewed chicken is very delicious, the aunt who has the fragrant chicken has not come to chew it, and some of it is swallowed directly, and the fragrant ones have no time to chew and swallow slowly, just like Bajie is eating the fruit of life, and there is no time to taste it in a hurry.
Another aunt looked at the aunt who was eating chicken legs and said:
"Hey, my mother, why did you eat it first."
"That's so fast, in the blink of an eye, there are chicken leg bones left?"
"Oh, this guy, you really eat, just eat it."
"You're honest, aren't you a fool."
The other aunts didn't wait for them to finish, and the chicken legs were only left with chicken bones.
Several aunts are saying that the aunt who eats chicken legs is stupid, let her eat her, she is really honest, honest people are not boasting at this moment, they are saying that the aunt who eats chicken legs is stupid.
The aunt who eats chicken legs says:
"Didn't you just say we would eat together? Why do you say that when I ate it, you say so? ”
Other aunts said:
"Hey, I'm speechless, let's not eat now."
"You're stupid."
"It's looking for something for yourself, really."
"In other words, the chicken we are talking about may be leftovers, and it is not eaten before meals."
Although everyone was talking about eating chicken just now, no one acted, just a mouthful, no one acted, just stood in place.
Now that someone has eaten, quickly reverse what he just said, eating after a meal, not before a meal.
Although the assistant chef can also eat the dishes, but they have to be leftovers after the table, and they will also prepare their meals, which can only be eaten last, and the guests will eat first.
Especially like this whole chicken, duck and fish, you can't eat it casually, although Tao Jinhua has a lot of ingredients at home, but you can't eat it privately.
The aunt who ate the chicken leg was said to be red-faced, standing in place and not knowing what to do, there was nothing to do, just a bite of chicken thigh, but after being finished by several other cooks, and also analyzed, the psychological pressure was very high in an instant, and I felt that I had made a very serious mistake, which was simply unforgivable.
As soon as the aunts finished speaking, Tao Jinhua came over.
The aunt who first proposed to eat chicken just now said:
"Lao Tao, come here, I have something to say."
As soon as Tao Jinhua walked over, the aunt said:
"Lao Tao, Zhou Lian ate the chicken just now, look at this chicken."
The aunt told Tao Jinhua that she also wanted to ask Tao Jinhua how to deal with it, what she meant was that Zhou Lian had also eaten chicken legs anyway, so she just ate the chicken together.
As long as someone starts, the rest is easy to say, and it is Zhou Lian who is the first to eat chicken legs, and at the same time, they can also eat this chicken together.
Tao Jinhua is the main family, and he has the most right to distribute the ownership of food, Tao Jinhua said with a smile:
"It's fine."
Then Tao Jinhua looked at Zhou Lian and said:
"Lao Zhou, since you have eaten it, pack this chicken back, my girl will let me prepare more ingredients, you pack one, and my girl will pack the rest later."
Tao Jinhua smiled, and was also telling them that the girl would pack the chicken for a while, and she couldn't eat it, looked at the other aunts, and said:
"Then you guys are busy, I still have some things."
After Tao Jinhua left.
The aunts who helped the cook just stared at each other, no one spoke, and went about their own business.
Zhou Lian, who ate chicken legs, also recovered, and he was really happy to be able to pack this chicken home.
At this time, it was already past eleven o'clock, and He Tao appeared.
He Tao also officially met with his neighbors for the first time, and he had never seen him before.
As soon as He Tao entered the courtyard, everyone's eyes were on He Tao.
He Tao wore a very eye-catching white shirt and an orange-orange skirt, which made He Tao immediately appear in the crowd, and the little boy next to him was also very attractive.
He Tao's aunts and sisters, when they saw He Tao, they all took the initiative to step forward.
The relatives who came today are all relatives from He Tao's mother's side, and relatives from his father's side, they don't communicate with each other, and they don't have contact information, and He Tao's father is not there.
In recent years, many aunts have been taken care of by He Tao, and more or less they have rich friendships in it.
They also knew where He Tao's money came from, but they all pretended not to know, and it was a compliment when they met.
He Tao's aunt Jiang Lingling, when she saw He Tao coming back, she was the first to walk over and said happily:
"Ah, auntie, I haven't seen you for a few months, look at this skin, it's really good."
The aunts around him also praised He Tao's beauty and clothes.
He Tao sat in the middle, very happy to listen to everyone's praise.
The relatives all knew that He Tao was the junior who destroyed the family, but no one said it, because they all received He Tao's financial help.
If He Tao is provoked, the thousands or tens of thousands of dollars borrowed before will have to be returned.
The tacit understanding between them is that because of the money, everyone is safe.
At the dinner table, when there is no banquet, there are melon seeds and peanuts, as well as tea, so that everyone can have a snack and sit and chat and drink tea when everyone is waiting for the meal.
The others were chatting about the recent situation, talking about family, children, and marriage, but He Tao didn't participate, just drinking a cup of tea, listening and looking at the door.
He Tao looked at the time, and immediately started the banquet, why didn't he see anyone coming?
