Chapter 706: Wonderful Craft
Lian Baiping took a handful of dried vegetables from the Chen family in just a few words, and then returned to Ju'an Xiaoge in less than half a cup of tea, and after several people in the same courtyard greeted him, he personally sent it to the kitchen door.
"Mr. Ji, I brought the dried vegetables, just a handful. ”
"Okay, let's send it in. ”
"Yes!"
Lian Baiping shook his sleeves slightly, shook all the dried vegetables out of his sleeves, and gently caught them in his hands and entered the kitchen.
The kitchen in Ju'an Pavilion has only one door and one small window, but the interior does not appear dim, Ji Yuan is cutting ingredients on the cutting board next to the stove, and the fire of the earthen stove is constantly beating.
"Sir, dried vegetables. ”
"Well, just put it on this wooden basin and spread it evenly. ”
Lian Baiping looked at a small wooden basin on the small wooden table, which was also covered with a layer of light yarn, which should be just suitable for stuffing all the fish into it.
Lian Baiping followed Ji Yuan's instructions, spread a handful of dried vegetables in his hand evenly, and then saw Ji Yuan sprinkle some of the cut things on it, and then put the remaining pieces of fish into the basin, and embedded the dried vegetables in the gap between the fish.
"I want to take a boat on the Chunmu River back then, and a fisherman made a steamed fish with dried vegetables, and decades have passed, and Ji still remembers it. ”
"Then I'm blessed to have a meal today, so that Mr. can cook this dish himself!"
Ji Yuan lifted the wooden basin, put it on the pot with a steamer, covered the cage lid, and then looked at Lian Baiping.
"How much does Tianji Pavilion know about Ji Mou, how much does he know about heaven and earth, and how much does he know about the future?"
Lian Baiping suddenly felt a lot of pressure, these three questions are heavier than the other, the key is that in addition to the first one, he can barely answer it, the last two are too broad, and he also knows that what Mr. Ji asked is definitely not an ordinary thing, but he still doesn't know where to start.
"What Mr. asked, when we go to Tianji Pavilion, we can get part of the answer, but we don't dare to go to Haikou, we can only say that Tianji Pavilion will not snub Mr. ”
Lian Baiping said sincerely, but he didn't say it full, Ji Yuan also knew that his question was relatively empty, but he didn't dare to ask too practically, it would be fatal, so he could only nod.
"Fellow practitioners, let's go out and wait, the accountant will notify you when the meal is ready." ”
"Well, I can help light the fire. ”
Lian Baiping obviously wanted to stay in the kitchen for a while, but when he saw Ji Yuan shaking his head, he had no choice but to smile and salute and leave.
Outside, Zao Niang was still reading a book, and when Lian Baiping came out, she put down the book and refilled a cup of tea for him.
"Fellow practitioners, what do you say to Mr. Ji?"
Pei Zheng asked casually, he was relatively familiar with Tianji Pavilion, so there was no need to have too many taboos, especially if the importance of Jige to Yuhuai Mountain today, it seemed that it was not inferior to some real famous families.
"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that Mr. also has some things that he wants to go to my Tianji Pavilion to understand, and he asked a few words in advance, and my Tianji Pavilion naturally wants to make it convenient." ”
As he spoke, Lian Baiping looked up at the jujube tree in the courtyard again, in the canopy, there was a faint streamer floating, behind the streamer were some large green jujubes hidden in the branches and leaves, but there were some more vague places in the bushes, where a faint red light was revealed from time to time.
'Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root!'
Lian Baiping swept the afterglow of his gaze to Zao Niang, this quiet woman who was reading a book, should be the spirit of the spiritual root, but I don't know if the fruit of the spiritual root is ripe now.
But soon, the tea drinkers and the people who read books couldn't keep their original calm, and the aroma of the kitchen was becoming more and more intense.
"Alright, it's time to eat. ”
Because the fish is large, the container for the fish is also large, one is a wooden basin, and the other is the kind of large soup basin, which was sent to the stone table in the courtyard by a gust of wind, and Ji Yuan also came out of the kitchen, holding a big wooden rice bucket in his hand.
The tea set on the stone table had already been cleaned up by Zao Niang when the fragrance of the kitchen came out, and the three major pots of vegetables were placed on the table, even if it was an immortal cultivator, they couldn't help but salivate.
A stool was added, and the five people sat in the courtyard, and after a few polite words, they all moved their chopsticks, and it was rare to see the people who cultivated immortals, especially the immortals, gathered around to eat, and today's few people ate very happily.
To tell the truth, although I imagined that Mr. Ji's cooking skills would be very good, but this good degree is still beyond Lian Baiping's imagination, eating this dish is not exactly in taste, there is a feeling of detachment from pure taste, mysterious and mysterious, it is difficult to explain clearly, but it makes people feel happy, he couldn't stop for a while, he directly ate three bowls and didn't care about saying a few words to Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan is also in a similar situation, he originally wanted to chat with people at the dinner table, how do you know that these immortal cultivators eat so ferociously, and they look good, looking gentle and elegant, not disgraceful at all, but that kind of elegance and stability does not affect the frequency of moving chopsticks at all, so that Ji Yuan has to take it seriously.
"Gollum ......"
A heavy and special voice appeared, and I don't know where it came from, as if it was smashed on everyone's hearts, so that everyone stopped chopsticks, but Ji Yuan still went his own way, eating with fish and meat.
"Uh, Mr. Ji, did you hear a strange noise just now?"
Qiu Feng asked cautiously, this is in Ju'an Pavilion, and all the movements will definitely not escape Mr. Ji's ears, so it is impossible for Mr. Ji not to hear it.
Sure enough, Ji Yuan nodded.
"I heard it, and then I ate and didn't pay attention to it. ”
Hearing this, Zao Niang immediately continued to eat the fish and meat, and had 100% trust in Ji Yuan, and eating the fish and meat in her stomach made her feel warm, which was obviously beneficial.
Seeing Ji Yuan's attitude, the other people didn't dare to ask more, and continued to eat.
The three pots of fish with different recipes, even the big bucket of rice, were all eaten, and not even a grain of rice was left.
After a few polite words, Ji Yuan sent Qiu Feng, Pei Zheng and Lian Baiping away, and asked them to wait in Yuhuai Mountain.
When the guests left, Zao Niang was still cleaning up in the yard, and there was a voice in Ji Yuan's sleeve that couldn't hold back anymore.
"Ji Yuan, why did you seal the scroll just now?"
Zao Niang glanced at Ji Yuan when she heard this voice, but then continued the movements in her hand, while Ji Yuan smiled and pulled out the picture scroll of the pig.
"The sound of your saliva being as loud as thunder scares Ji's guests. ”
There was silence on the scroll for a while, and the voice of the pig came out again.
"I didn't expect you to be fate...... It's also an amazing craft...... This dish is ...... That's nice...... That, Ji Yuan, we've known each other long enough, right?"
Ji Yuan snapped his fingers and counted it.
"It's not a long time, and this little year is probably just for you to take a nap. ”
"That's not true...... Doesn't your Mr. Ji like to play the red dust the most, watch the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of mortals, and see their birth, old age, sickness and death to understand the true temperament of the world? The time you and I have known each other is definitely not short in this rolling red dust!"
Ji Yuan grinned, didn't say anything, and said directly.
"There's still a complete pot left, sprinkle part with a little salt, and part with a little honey, let's divide it, do we eat it?"
"Eat!"
Okay, sure enough, it's this bit of appetite, Ji Yuan feels more and more that the picture scroll is not a pig, but more like gluttony.
Ji Yuan walked to the kitchen, there was still residual temperature of the charcoal in the stove, thought about it, Ji Yuan took out a few sweet potatoes of suitable size from his sleeve, threw them directly into the stove, covered the charcoal fire and grass ash with tongs, and then came to the pot, felt the temperature in the pot, took a pinch of salt and scattered it, and reached out to hook up a small ball of honey in the jar on the side, forming a small film umbrella to cover the pot.
"Zilalala......"
Under the influence of the fire of the stove and the temperature of the iron pot, the tempting sizzling sound sounded for a moment, and then Ji Yuan directly pried the spatula, and a whole pot-shaped pot was pried up by him.
"Click......"
The pot was split in two, and the picture scroll of the pig was already suspended next to the small kitchen table, and a pair of drawn eyes were staring at Ji Yuan's hand.
"The one on the left is obviously bigger, Ji Yuan, you have to be fair!"
"Who let Ji Moucai eat, the one on the left will be given to you." ”
Ji Yuan didn't tease the pig, and directly threw the half pot on the left to the pig's picture scroll, and the paw of a piggy with ink stretched out to catch it, and then grabbed the pot back into the conversation.
"Click...... Click...... Squeak squeak ......"
Soon, the crunchy sound of eating and chewing pots resounded in the kitchen.
"Sometimes, Ji really doubts whether you are a pig or a glutton?"
"Of course it's a pig! I don't believe that when the time comes, you can make those officials of the Great Zhen Imperial Observatory swear an oath to me. ”
Ji Yuan's eyes lit up, but he remembered something, he really seemed to have seen it in his previous life, and the officials who were in charge of the law worshiped the legend of the hedgehog.
"Fate ......"
"What's wrong again?"
"I'm done eating......"
"Crunch squeak squeak......"
"Alright, I'm done too. ”
