Governor of the Metropolitan Water Cook, Section 73

He subconsciously frowned, looked around, and saw the anticipation and fear in everyone's eyes.

So after Zhao Qingyou asked, he immediately said categorically: "Don't." โ€

In this regard, Zhao Qingyou was not disappointed, except for omitting the step of adding sour bamboo shoots, the others were the same as the steps of Niu Xinlu just now.

Liu Quan took the bowl, couldn't help but speed up the pace under his feet, wanted to go to the dining area to see the state of Niu Xinlu, if this sour bamboo shoot smelled strange, but it didn't taste ordinary, he must take advantage of the fact that the others had not reacted, and hurried back to add a lot of sour bamboo shoots.

Under Liu Quan's shout, everyone immediately realized what they had forgotten after seeing Cui Jiancheng just now, and it was clear that everyone was free to choose.

If the taste is strange, why not walk into the courtyard with a bowl without adding sour bamboo shoots?

Thinking of this, the empty space in front of Zhao Qingyou was instantly crowded into a large number of people.

The leader forcibly stopped the movement of squeezing forward behind him, and shouted anxiously at Zhao Qingyou: "A bowl of snail noodles without sour bamboo shoots!" โ€

Then such voices echoed in the public kitchen, and the shouts were not much worse than the usual pomp and circumstance.

At this time, the three people who were already sitting at the meal, Cui Zhiyun and Niu Xinlu were about to start their own meal, Liu Quan grabbed Niu Xinyun's hand instantly after sitting down, and gestured with his eyes, letting him look at Cui Zhiyun on the side.

Niu Xinlu followed his friend's eyes and looked to the side, almost breaking out in a cold sweat, not understanding why officials like Cui Jiancheng also appeared here.

Cui Zhiyun had long been accustomed to this kind of sneaky look, so he looked at the snail powder in front of him as if he didn't feel anything.

Because of the broth, bright red oil is splashed on the bowl, giving a bright red sheen to the fungus, yuba and water spinach that surround the surface.

Even the rice noodles that were pressed to the bottom, only the unbearable protrusion of the rice noodles were wrapped in a layer of red and bright luster.

The tip of the nose comes from the sour and fragrant smell of sour bamboo shoots, along with the fresh and spicy flavor of the broth and the sour taste of vinegar.

All the flavors are mixed together, and it is the snail noodles in front of me that look particularly tempting.

Cui Zhiyun chose the first entrance to the rice noodles, this pure white rice noodles look similar to the shape of the cake, but he has never seen it, driven by curiosity, he directly picked up a chopstick of rice noodles.

In the process of sandwiching the rice noodles, each part of the rice noodles is coated in soup, and the bright red red oil wraps around every inch of its surface, and then slides down the rice noodles.

Each stick of rice noodles adds a bright shine and makes people look more appetizing than the color they first see.

He was a little anxious and couldn't wait for the rice noodles to cool down, so he directly stuffed a chopstick of rice noodles into his mouth, and the first feeling in his mouth was sour and spicy, as well as the slippery taste of the rice noodles themselves.

Compared with the texture of the cake, it is a completely different taste, the rice noodles are more smooth and moist, and the first feeling when biting is elastic, but it is very tender, almost broken with a light bite, and there is no toughness.

When you eat it, you can't help but swallow it faster, and you make the inhalation sound when you inhale the rice noodles, and the picture of the soup that is wrapped in the rice noodles is blocked on the surface of your lips and splashes around.

Cui Zhiyun was the same, he couldn't help but speed up the speed of eating rice noodles, almost just fished the rice noodles out of the bowl, and the next second he sucked them all into his mouth.

The elastic and easily chopped taste fully satisfies the teeth, and the tip of the tongue is stimulated by the sour and spicy taste, and the body explodes with more urgent cravings.

Therefore, in the eyes of Niu Xinlu and Liu Quan, Cui Zhiyun almost methodically but very quickly solved the food in the bowl.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, neither of them could have believed that there could be such a contradictory and harmonious scene in the world.

Niu Xinlu was already hungry, and when he saw such a scene, he felt that he was going to start to resist if he didn't eat anymore, so he didn't care what Liu Quan said, and started to move directly towards the food in his bowl.

Liu Quan found out about this scene, and hurriedly took advantage of the fact that the sour bamboo shoots were still on the surface, stretched out his sinful chopsticks, and picked up a sour bamboo shoot from Niu Xinlu's bowl.

If it weren't for Niu Xinlu's chopsticks holding rice noodles and other side dishes at this time, he really wanted to clip back his own side dishes, but unfortunately his mouth and stomach did not allow him to do so.

His hand hurriedly stuffed the food on the chopsticks into his mouth, but his eyes were fixed on Liu Quan's movements.

It was difficult for Liu Quan to ignore this line of death, but for his own sake, he had to forcibly explain: "How about you taste this taste?" โ€

If he hadn't said this kind of thing with a wrinkled face at this time, it is estimated that Niu Xinlu would believe a little more in his heart, and he would eat it even if he disliked it, is this what people should do?

Liu Quan didn't want to do this, but he didn't know why, he felt that after he clamped it, the smell wafting from the tip of his nose became more and more strange, and even the fragrance of the pepper in front of him could not hide the taste of the sour bamboo shoots themselves.

The strong sour smell makes people drool, but the strange smell mixed with it makes people suspicious.

After experiencing a fierce ideological struggle, he still chose to believe in Zheng Wan's taste, soaked the sour bamboo shoots in a bowl for a while, then stuffed them into his mouth, held his breath, and chewed a sour bamboo shoot in his mouth that was not half a little finger thick.

As soon as the sour bamboo shoots are put in the mouth, the body subconsciously puts them on the teeth, and the tongue does not give a chance to touch them.

But the moment the teeth bite through the sour bamboo shoots, the juice hidden in the sour bamboo shoots splashes in the mouth along with the spicy juice that has just been wrapped.

There was no time to dodge such a sudden situation, even though Liu Quan already felt that he had done everything he could, but under such an accident, his tongue was still stained with the smell of sour bamboo shoots.

The fermented sourness hit his brain, and for a moment he felt like his teeth were going to be sour.

But except for the sour taste, there is no other strange smell, and it is much more fragrant when you eat it than when you smell it.

In the face of such a surprising situation, my teeth kept chewing, and from the crisp sour bamboo shoots, I tasted the unique taste of sour bamboo shoots, mixed with a taste that was not easy to be noticed, and the more I ate, the more I wanted to eat, and I began to feel that the smell I just smelled was quite fragrant.

After Liu Quan swallowed the sour bamboo shoots that had no residue in his mouth, he opened his eyes in an instant, and his eyes burst out with dazzling brilliance.

In Niu Xinlu's surprised eyes, Liu Quan anxiously held the bowl he hadn't eaten yet, hurriedly walked through the crowd, and shouted at Zhao Qingyou in the surprised eyes of more people:

"Zhao Niangzi, you can add these sour bamboo shoots by yourself, right?"

"Willow fish master, please take care of yourself, these sour bamboo shoots can be added by yourself like pepper oil."

Although Zhao Qingyou was a little surprised, he still explained the situation to Liu Quan very quickly while serving soup to others, and immediately said to the person in front of him after making a bowl: "The fish master's snail noodles are ready." โ€

The voice fell, but she didn't see the other party's action of taking the bowl, she was puzzled, and unconsciously looked to the right with the gaze of the person in front of her.

I saw Liu Quan like a squirrel hoarding food in autumn, anxiously holding chopsticks and filling half of the bowl full of sour bamboo shoots into his bowl before stopping.

Not to mention others, even Zhao Qingyou himself was surprised.

It wasn't until Liu Quan left with the bowl that everyone came back to their senses from the shocking scene just now.

If you don't want to eat it when you smell it, you may say that you don't agree with the taste of sour bamboo shoots, but seeing such an arrogant scene in Liu Quan, everyone knows that this sour bamboo shoot is definitely not as simple as it smells by yourself.

Especially the person in front of Zhao Qingyou, who shouted anxiously: "Zhao Niangzi, I also want to add a little sour bamboo shoots." โ€

"No."

Zhao Qingyou's spirit was still a little trance, but according to the other party's request, he picked up a chopstick sour bamboo shoot from the plate and added it to the bowl, and said, "Your snail noodles are ready." โ€

On the other side, by the time Liu Quan passed through the crowd and returned to his seat, Niu Xinlu had already eaten most of the bowl of noodles.

Seeing this scene, Liu Quan felt dissatisfied with his caution for the first time, and he regretted his doubts about Zheng Wan's craftsmanship.

From now on, a famous sentence will be engraved in Liu Quan's heart: As long as the food made by Mrs. Zheng is delicious, it is more delicious if it smells wrong.

Then he also sped up his eating, and felt all kinds of wonderful tastes collide in his mouth.

There are slippery rice noodles covered in a delicious and spicy soup, as well as crispy fungus and capers, crispy and fragrant fried peanuts, and crispy and fragrant fried yuba with โ–กโ–ก juice in your mouth.

And the water spinach that is wrapped in a fragrant soup and tastes smooth and refreshing, fresh and sweet, but between the leaves and stems, it is wrapped in a spicy but thick umami soup, and it is a great satisfaction in the mouth.

Suddenly, when he felt his chopsticks reach in, it seemed that he had touched something hard, and he quickly picked it up with his chopsticks and found that it was a snail that he had ignored.

Since today's morning food is called snail noodles, the taste of this snail is definitely not ordinary, but how to eat such a thing wrapped in a hard shell?

didn't know why he thought of this, his first reaction was to look at Cui Zhiyun on the side.

But it was precisely this that made him discover the secret of eating snails.

I saw Cui Zhiyun holding a snail with chopsticks, slowly approaching his mouth, aiming his mouth at the mouth of the snail, and in the next second, he used his teeth to cut off the snail meat and other parts of the snail, and happily chewed the elastic and delicious snail meat in his mouth.

Liu Quan could even see that Cui Zhiyun was in a very good mood at this time, almost a pair of mouths and a mouthful of snail meat, and the whole person's expression was very relaxed and happy, which was completely different from the tense state when they met before.

Coupled with the face that was red by the heat, and the lips that were so spicy that they were red after eating too much pepper, he felt that Cui Jiancheng was even more energetic and popular, and the distance between him and everyone seemed to have been narrowed a lot.

Especially coupled with his elegant demeanor, dining in such a noisy and noisy dining area seems to be independent of a solitary lotus in the noisy world.

Liu Quan shook his head, shaking off the imagination in his mind, how could he be in the mood to care about the prisoners who were much better off than himself.

Immediately got rid of the messy thoughts in his head, imitated Cui Zhiyun's movements and began to enjoy snails.

At first, he thought he was licking the snail out with his tongue, but he soon realized that something was wrong, and he was only able to push the snail farther.

Just when he was at a loss, a sudden inhalation immediately sucked the soup filled inside the snail into his mouth, which made him have a flash of inspiration and immediately increased his suction.

"Shhh

The violent inhalation and the rapid flow of the soup produced a loud sound, so that the people sitting around Liu Quan couldn't help but cast their eyes on Liu Quan.

Especially Niu Xinlu, who was sitting next to him, as if he had obtained some cheats all at once, quickly fished out the snail that he had been unable to solve, and sucked it at the mouth of the snail.

"Shhh

It was a familiar sound again, and the snail meat answered the entrance, and he opened his eyes wide in surprise, and he couldn't wait to eat the snail meat into his mouth.

The special chewiness, the spicy taste of the pepper that is soaked in the soup, and the umami that you can feel the more you chew it, give him an unusual taste.

Even if he doesn't use such snails to make snail noodles, it is a good dish to use for wine after simply making them.

After that, in the kitchen area, you can hear the sound of heavy inhalations one after another, and everyone is struggling with a small snail.

Cui Zhiyun, who had been personally mentioned by Zheng Wan, naturally didn't have to make such efforts, and after eating and drinking, he got up and left.

On the way to the gate of the capital water prison, the cool breeze of the early morning breeze blew, and under the continuous spread of warmth in his stomach, he couldn't feel the coolness at all, and even felt that it could be a little bigger to dispel the heat in his body.

Looking at Yun Wu, who was waiting here, he immediately got into the car quickly and shouted: "Don't be too anxious, it's still the time to enjoy the morning food in the early dynasty, just arrive before the early dynasty." โ€

As his words fell, the ox cart slowly moved forward.

If it was normal, Cui Zhiyun would definitely set off directly from his home to the imperial city to go to the morning court, but he woke up too early today, and suddenly thought of Zheng Wan working in the public kitchen and being responsible for all matters related to the morning food.

Then come to the chef of the water supervisor early, and you will definitely be able to enjoy other food.

But what he didn't expect was that what he ate this time was actually a variant of the snail duck foot pot he had eaten last time, and it tasted very good.

Cui Zhiyun, who was immersed in his memories, didn't notice that because he had been in the kitchen for too long, and he was familiar with the smell of sour bamboo shoots, he couldn't tell that he had too much sour bamboo shoots on his body at this time, and it smelled even stranger than the usual fishy smell.

For this reason, Yun Wu had to lift the curtain on the ox cart to speed up the speed of the ox's walking, trying to help Cui Zhiyun dispel the smell on his body.

Sure enough, when the two of them walked to the gate of the imperial city, he felt that the smell of Lang Jun had almost dispersed.

Cui Zhiyun didn't notice that Yun Wu was wrong, showed his waist card, and thought about the direction of the Xuanzheng Hall step by step.

When he walked to the door of the Xuanzheng Palace, he happened to meet a large group of officials who had eaten the morning food from the side hall coming out of it.

What came out happened to be an official from a family who was not used to seeing Cui Zhiyun, and when he saw Cui Zhiyun, it was as if he hadn't seen anything, and continued to talk about the topic in his mouth, treating Cui Zhiyun as air.

This is not the first time that this situation has been experienced, and with the emergence of the illicit salt case, there has begun to be an increasingly fierce posture.

Cui Zhiyun was not surprised at all in the face of this isolated performance, and was even in the mood to recall the food he had just eaten.

But others didn't think so, and just wanted to persuade Cui Zhiyun to return to the right path, they suddenly smelled a strange smell, slightly sour and wrapped in a strange smell that they had never smelled before, making people subconsciously want to wrinkle their noses.

Just when everyone looked at each other and began to look for the source of the strange smell, someone suddenly signaled Cui Zhiyun's direction with their eyes.

First of all, everyone didn't want to believe that the Cui family had its own maid to handle the clothes, and they had to go through the smoke of spices every day, so it was impossible for any strange smell to come from Cui Zhiyun's body.

But soon, everyone suddenly thought of the fishy smell coming from the officials of the capital water supervisor who had arrived in a hurry when they were called to the imperial study by the saint after the previous court meeting, and the smell of rotten mud emitted by the river mud that was still precipitated.
