Chapter 16: It's Too Early
After Wei Zhengyang finished speaking, there was a dead silence in the private room.
"Why don't you two speak? Which of you used that knife? Wei Zhengyang said while drinking wine and eating food alone.
The father and son looked at each other, but they didn't know how to answer.
"You're not going to lose your knife!" Wei Zhengyang put down his chopsticks and asked.
"Then how can you lose it, Grandpa Wei rest assured, the knife is good." Dao Wuji hurriedly poured wine for Wei Zhengyang.
"Whose knife is that?"
Dao Lin stood up and said, "Grandpa, it's the knife I used!" ”
"Oh? Taoism really produces talents, you are qualified to use that knife to cook at a young age, not bad! Wei Zhengyang said with a smile on his face, and there was even some expectation in his eyes.
"No, I didn't cook with that knife," Dowling whispered, lowering his head.
"Didn't cook? Then what are you doing with the Imperial Golden Sword? Wei Zhengyang asked puzzled.
"Ahem... I'm going to cut him down..."Dowling coughed awkwardly, his voice like a mosquito.
"Slashing? Oh, my God! Do you use the kitchen knife that the emperor has rewarded you to cut people? Wuji, Wuji, what do you want me to say about you! Wei Zhengyang slapped angrily on the table and shouted.
Dao Wuji was so frightened that he stood up, and said with a smile on his face: "Grandpa Wei, there is a reason for this, and Lin Er is also forced to do so." ”
"What's the last resort, you explain it to me!"
So, Dao Wuji told Dao Lin about killing the Wolf King, and by the way, he also told Dao Lin to help the escort team eliminate the Hungry Wolf Gang.
"Hey, it's reasonable to use it to save your life in a moment, but... How to repay this matter to the emperor..."Wei Zhengyang looked bitter and hateful.
Dao Wuji and Dao Lin are also worried, last night I just had a plan to return to the imperial capital with the help of the emperor, but I never thought that the emperor would send someone here today, this is not only a coincidence, but also a coincidence, Dao Wuji has not cultivated Dao Lin to cook.
Wei Zhengyang lowered his head and drank the wine, while Dao Wuji was silent and continued to drink.
Suddenly, Wei Zhengyang raised his head to look at Dao Wuji, and asked with a pair of eyes full of expectation, "Aren't you also able to cook?" I remember the old Tao once taught you! ”
Dao Wuji shook his head and said that he had lost his sense of smell and taste.
"These bastards, when I return to the imperial capital, I will definitely not be able to spare them." Wei Zhengyang said angrily.
"Actually, Lin Er can cook, but he knows some fur, I trained him well during this time, I guess he can do it, he is very talented in cooking." Dao Wuji pointed at Dao Lin and said.
"Lin Er can cook, that's great, this time the emperor didn't set a time, but I found a reason to let my subordinates go back to report to the emperor first, I will stay for a few more days, you hurry up and teach him to cook." Wei Zhengyang finally showed a smile on his face, and patted Dao Wuji's shoulder with great satisfaction and said.
Dowling suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was so heavy.
The three of them came out of the private room with a smile and a smile, Wei Zhengyang and the rest of the golden-armored cavalry explained a few words, and they left.
Dao Wuji said that he would stay, but Wei Zhengyang refused.
"Xiaguan Guang'an County County Commander has seen adults." Pang Xianling, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, bowed to Wei Zhengyang and saluted.
Wei Zhengyang glanced at Pang County's order, and the smile on his face converged.
"Who told you to come?" Wei Zhengyang had a displeased look on his face.
"Huh?" Pang Xianling was suddenly frightened, and his whole body began to swing.
"Grandpa, I happened to be a guest at the county office of Pang County, and the county commander heard that you were coming, so he came with me." Dowling came to Wei Zhengyang's side and said respectfully.
"I see, there's nothing for you here, why don't you go!" Wei Zhengyang nodded and said to Pang County, who was shaking like chaff.
"Yes, yes, yes! The lower officials retired..."Pang Xianling bowed to Wei Zhengyang again and again, and then retreated.
Seeing this, Dowling hurriedly followed.
"Pang Xianling, I'm sorry, my grandfather doesn't have a good temper, don't be angry!" Dowling patted Pang County Ling's shoulder and said.
Pang Xianling waved his hand again and again when he heard this, saying that he didn't dare to dare.
"Pang County Order, you see this is too unfortunate, there are guests at home, so I can't accompany you to enjoy the scenery, it's a pity." Dowling put Pang County Order into the carriage and said.
"Don't worry about it, don't worry about it, it's important to accompany Shangguan, by the way, take the liberty of asking, who is this person?" Pang Xianling wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked.
"I heard my dad say that he is the commander of the golden armored cavalry, he doesn't want me anymore, so he will stay with me for a few days." Dowling naturally put on a tiger skin for himself.
Pang Xian Ling swallowed his saliva when he heard this, the commander of the golden armored cavalry, that is a great official, not to mention anything else, if he can be the commander, he must be a very powerful warrior, he regretted coming so recklessly.
"Pang County ordered to pay attention to safety on the way back, I won't send it, and when I am free, I will accompany you to Dongshan to enjoy the scenery." Dowling waved his hand at Pang County's order.
"No, no, no, I'm old, I don't like to climb mountains, I'll let people draw up the title deed after I go back, tomorrow... I'll ask Liang Yong to send it to you early tomorrow morning. ”
"Then there is a county order from Laopang, go slowly!" Dowling's goal was achieved, and he was happy to let Pang County Order leave.
Back at the restaurant, Dao Wuji pulled Dao Lin into his room.
"Where's Grandpa Wei?" Dowling asked.
"Go to the room and rest." Dao Wuji said while rummaging through the cabinets.
"What are you looking for?" Dowling asked curiously.
"Find your grandfather's notes, and recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation." Dao Wuji flipped out one book after another.
"What are you looking for? Can you just teach me otherwise? Dowling sat in his chair and picked up one of the books as he read it.
"In his position, your grandfather once recorded what the emperor likes to eat, and what he usually pays attention to when cooking." Dao Wuji glanced at Dao Lin and continued to look for it.
"Found it, found it, found your grandfather's notes." Dao Wuji excitedly took out a black leather-wrapped scroll.
"Let's go! Go to the back kitchen! ”
The father and son came to the back kitchen, and after dismissing all the cooks and helpers, Dao Wuji opened the scroll.
The scroll was densely filled with words, and Dowling glanced at it, which recorded the emperor's favorite dishes, as well as the details that needed to be paid attention to when cooking for the emperor.
"The emperor likes spicy food, especially barbecued and fried food, and the emperor also likes to eat all kinds ......of pasta, and likes to drink porridge in the morning," Dao Wuji pointed to the marked place on the scroll and read to Dowling.
"Father, let's get started, I can't wait to learn how to cook." Dowling brought dry firewood and put on an apron for himself.
"Okay, from today on, Lao Tzu will directly close the restaurant, and all the guys will go on paid leave, you can learn from Lao Tzu, whether you can complete the things of our two masters, it's up to you." Dao Wuji's expression was positive.
"Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely study hard, in order to be able to return to the imperial capital, let those who have bullied my father pay everyone, get my mother back, and reunite our family." Dowling gritted his teeth and nodded fiercely.
"Okay, then let's get started!"
