Volume 2 The Family Banquet of the Shen Mansion Chapter 56 A Quiet Day (2)

"Xu Fuquan, this is what you did?" Tang Zhengya asked after glancing at the noodle soup in the bowl.

"Well, I've wasted a lot of my time, so let's eat it while it's hot." Xu Fuquan replied with a smile.

Tang Zhengya swallowed her saliva, but in the end she didn't refuse, picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks, and put it in her mouth, and then Tang Zhengya's face became embarrassed.

"How?" Seeing that Tang Zhengya didn't speak for a long time, Xu Fuquan asked curiously.

"Have you tried this one?" Tang Zhengya did not answer Xu Fuquan, but asked rhetorically.

"I haven't tasted it yet."

"How does it feel?"

"Xu Fuquan, are you trying to murder me?"

"Where does the divine doctor begin..."

"You can make even the simplest bowl of noodle soup so unpalatable, you are really a god." Tang Zhengya angrily pushed the noodle bowl forward, "Don't eat it." ”

"Is it really that bad?" Xu Shiquan immediately stretched out his hand and took away the noodle bowl in front of Tang Zhengya, and took a bite himself, "Nei, I'm sorry for the divine doctor, I'll make another one." Xu Fuquan said with some guilt, and was about to pick up the noodle bowl.

"Xu Fuquan." Tang Zhengya's tone suddenly became extremely heavy, and his eyes also flashed with sincerity, "Would you like to promise me one thing?" ”

It was rare for Xu Shiquan to see Tang Zhengyan so serious, and after hesitating for a moment, he nodded: "Okay, Divine Doctor, please speak." ”

"Promise me not to go into the kitchen again, okay?" Tang Zheng Ayayi grabbed Xu Fuquan's hand, and his voice was extremely gentle, "I beg you." ”

Xu Fuquan's face flushed slightly, withdrew his hand, and continued to clean up the table: "Try a few more times, this bowl of noodles can always be satisfactory to the divine doctor." Besides, I used to practice swords, and I will always succeed if I practice more. ”

"Those things you make, you should eat them yourself, I'm still young, I don't want to be poisoned by you." Tang Zhengya said helplessly, and then her stomach made a "gurgling" sound

"Divine doctor, give me another chance."

"Enough, enough. Xu Fuquan, don't you know an old saying? You have a great talent, but you also lose another great skill! ”

"I don't understand."

"It means that you have such a powerful killing sword technique, and it is natural for you to lose the ability to cook." Tang Zhengya said helplessly.

When he heard the "Murder Sword Technique", Xu Fuquan's eyes immediately dimmed, but he did not deny Tang Zhengya's words, Tang Zhengya also realized his gaffe, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little embarrassing.

"That, I didn't mean that........" Tang Zhengya scratched his cheek.

Just when Tang Zhengya was at a loss, a hen fluttered her wings and suddenly flew into the courtyard, Tang Zhengya was startled and stood up: "How can there be a chicken?" ”

"I bought it yesterday, and I originally planned to stew a pot of chicken soup for the divine doctor tomorrow." Xu Fuquan swept out with a handful of his feet, and honestly carried the hen in his hand.

Looking at the hen, Tang Zhengya's eyes lit up, "I just happened to be short of ingredients, and I happened to meet it, so let this divine doctor show his hand." ”

Half an hour later, a strong smell of meat mixed with medicinal fragrance spread in the courtyard, smelling this fragrance, Xu Shiquan couldn't help licking his tongue, "What kind of smell is this?" It smells so good. ”

Tang Zhengya used a wooden spoon to hold two bowls of soup and handed one bowl to Xu Fuquan.

"Divine doctor, what is this?" Taking the wooden spoon and glancing at the soup inside, Xu Shiquan asked curiously.

"Medicinal chicken soup, when my master and uncle went out in the past, my nephew made this for me every day. How is it? Tang Zhengyan said with a smile.

"Where did the chickens go?"

"I shredded him." Tang Zhengya pointed to a pile of slender threads on the table and said.

"I see." Xu Fuquan nodded thoughtfully.

"Taste it." Tang Zhengyan urged.

Xu Shiquan couldn't wait to scoop up a spoonful of soup and put it into his mouth.

As soon as he entered, Xu Fuquan's eyes widened instantly, and the whole person was stunned in place.

"Xu Fuquan, is it delicious?"

"It's not salty, it's not light, it's just right."

"This shredded chicken would be better." Tang Zhengya couldn't wait to pick up the bowl in his hand and start serving the meat.

In less than a quarter of an hour, there was only an empty casserole and a pile of chicken bones on the table, and Tang Zhengya wiped the oil from her mouth with a handkerchief with satisfaction.

Xu Fuquan sat beside her, and his mouth was full of oil: "I have this blessing tonight, I really thank the divine doctor." ”

Tang Zhengya waved his hand: "You're welcome, after all, I used to eat delicacies from the mountains and seas when I had money, and I was too lazy to do it, but I didn't expect the craftsmanship to be so good now." ”

Xu Fuquan nodded: "Then what will we eat tomorrow." ”

Tang Zhengya's face sank: "Xu Fuquan, do you want to be poisoned by me?" ”

Xu Fuquan shook his head: "This is really the first thought in my mind, every time I finish this meal in the past few days, I have to think about what to eat next." It's actually a sad thing now, but this kind of sad thing is something I have never experienced before. ”

"Now I can walk on the market every day, I can walk on the street without bypassing people, I can feel a kind of ..... that I haven't seen for a long time," Xu Fuquan looked down at his palm, "I really feel alive."

"Oh......" Tang Zhengya replied lightly, "You always seem to be silent, and you're quite sentimental......"

A black eagle landed on the table at this moment.

Of course, this is not another late-night snack that comes to the door.

Xu Fuquan got up and pulled out the letter tube on the black eagle's leg: "But this flying eagle that always comes to see us has always reminded me that today's life is fake, and only what is written in the letter is true." ”

Tang Zhengya sighed: "What is written in the letter?" ”

Xiuzhe has reached a consensus with Uncle Xiang, and Uncle Xiang will succeed him as the head of Xiangmen and lead the current Xiangmen to be loyal to Xiuzhe. The Guan Lord Hall was burned down by a fire before they could go back, leaving nothing behind, and the whereabouts of the four Guan Lords are unknown. Zhao Gate is temporarily replaced by Zhao Xuan and Zhao Qin. Xu Fuquan flicked the note lightly, and the note turned into confetti and drifted away in the wind.

Tang Zhengya frowned slightly: "Chen Xiuzhe didn't urge you to go back?" ”

Xu Fuquan shook his head: "Xiuzhe's last sentence said, when he finds that place, he doesn't need me to go back, he will come to look for me." ”

Tang Zhengya walked over and patted Xu Fuquan on the shoulder: "Then don't worry about that, let's think about what we're going to do tomorrow." Tomorrow morning, I will buy some medicinal herbs in the East Market, and I have already written the list and hung it on the table, and the other ......"

"Baiyuezhai's peach blossom cake." Xu Fuquan smiled, "I've always remembered it below." ”

"Then this time I want to eat twenty pieces of peach blossom cake, just in time for breakfast, lunch and dinner."

"No problem, so I'm going to go early tomorrow. I heard that tomorrow is the Eid month of Baiyuezhai, and there are white moon cakes for sale, which is the golden sign of his house, but it is only sold once a month. Xu Fuquan picked up the pots and pans and walked to the back kitchen, "It was when I was feeding the medicine in the afternoon, and a young lady told me. ”

"White moon cake! Tomorrow is Eid al-Fitr? I've wanted to eat it for a long time! Tang Zhengya's eyes lit up, "Xu Fuquan, as long as you can buy three boxes of white moon cakes, I will never say anything about you coming to the chef in the future." ”

"Is that true?" Xu Fuquan turned around and said.

Tang Zhengyan raised a hand: "I'm the little master of Shennong Valley, how can I break my word?" ”

"Good!" Xu Fuquan nodded and said, "I slept for two hours, and then I went to the gate of Baiyuezhai to wait, and I must let the divine doctor eat the freshly baked white moon cake." ”

The second day, in the morning.

Tang Zhengya: "It's not a loss, it's the famous white moon cake in Sizhou, it's so delicious!" It's so delicious! Xu Fuquan, you also eat a piece. ”

On the second day, at the time of dinner.

Xu Fuquan smiled and said, "Divine doctor, I also make a pot of chicken soup, you come and try whether it tastes good." ”

After Tang Zhengyan finished drinking, he cried with a sad face: "God, I regret it." Xu Fuquan, I'm going to kill you! ”
