Chapter 109 Disguise
The one hundred and ninth disguise
The royal city at night seems to be very quiet, since Xiao Ruoshui took away the people on the rivers and lakes, the royal city has never been so quiet, without the hustle and bustle of the people on the rivers and lakes, the city is as quiet as a newborn baby asleep, it is so quiet, and it is so pure. Scattered lights loomed in the night, flickering and flickering, blinking like stars in the starlight.
One of these looming lights is the room where Xiao Ruoshui is, and at this moment, Li Yunmeng put her hands on her cheeks, looking at the jumping candle flame alone in a daze, pondering. The bright eyes like the bright moon still didn't seem to wake up from the shock, the melon seeds still had a look of surprise and strange combination on their faces, the red cherry-like mouth pouted as if it could be lifted up to the sky, and the candlelight reflected on her body seemed to be draped in a layer of red glow on her, making her even more beautiful, graceful, delicate and pitiful, which made people want to protect her and love her.
Xiao Ruoshui doesn't seem to have the slightest feeling for this pitiful, charming and touching girl, his attention is attracted by the blazing fire, to be precise, the ingredients on the blazing stove are attracted, he keeps stir-frying with the pot in one hand, and the other hand also pulls the bellows from time to time to control the temperature of the flame, but the emaciated figure is not a little hurried, still looks relaxed, he also adds some seasonings from time to time, tastes the taste, and is a little self-entertaining. There is no such heart-wrenching and painful performance that has lost everything that is coveted by everyone on the rivers and lakes. As if those things are some treasures that have nothing to do with him, he is just a passerby, and he is most interested in being able to make these ingredients in front of him, make a meal that makes him happy, and everything else seems to have nothing to do with him, it doesn't seem to be his own concern, but like something that others care about.
The ingredients of the food have been packed up by Xiao Ruoshui one by one, and they are placed on the board next to the stove, and the plates of ingredients have been carefully processed, whether it is silk. Slice. The volumes, the blocks are neat and uniform if you look closely, and they are very precise. Xiao Ruoshui was very careful and careful when he cleaned up these ingredients before. Even Li Yunmeng, who was chasing after him for questioning, didn't pay much attention. There was just a sentence that answered her question. On the contrary, many times I close my mouth and carefully organize these ingredients. It seems that these ingredients are more important than the trip to Mobei that Li Yunmeng cares about, and the angry Li Yunmeng beat him several times in a row, but he still looks dumbfounded when he sees him. I didn't want to ask what I wanted, so I had to sit at the table alone and look at the candle flame in a daze.
The house was rented by Xiao Ruoshui when he bought old fur before, Li Yunmeng had been here before, and he was not very unfamiliar with the situation here, everything in the room was not unfamiliar, but the only thing he didn't expect was that this place actually stored so many ingredients, and in the courtyard of this room, there was actually a large storage cellar underground, which was repaired very beautifully, and a lot of rooms were repaired next to a passage, and the completeness of the room repair was completely comparable to that of ordinary small households, the walls were very flat and smooth, obviously carefully tamped, and painted with lime, and the ground was also paved with stone slabs to prevent moisture resurgenceAt the top, a ceiling made of stone beams and slabs is supported by stone pillars from top to bottom, which can not only prevent moisture but also sound insulation, and prevent collapse. It can be seen that the previous owner of this house was a very discreet person who demanded perfection in the details.
Xiao Ruoshui continued his cooking duties, he was very serious and even serious to the point of persistence, tasting the taste from time to time, closing his eyes and tasting carefully, and then his hands kept adjusting the flame, and then adding ingredients to adjust the taste until he thought he was satisfied. Li Yunmeng looked at the candlelight and pondered boringly for a long time, sighed and looked back at Xiao Ruoshui's self-entertainment, indulging in cooking food, her head became bigger again, and she felt that her head seemed to hurt again, she couldn't help but have a feeling of hatred for this man, she thought in her heart that his master knew that at this moment, his apprentice would give away the tasks that had been completed and the results he had obtained, so what would he be in the mood, it is estimated that he would have to be reprimanded lightly, and driven out of the division at the worst. Thinking of this, her mood suddenly became heavy, and she was full of sorrow when she thought about it, but this man actually hid in the kitchen to cook, and he did it very well, and he seemed to have a desire to eat when he smelled it. Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a little feverish on her face, she was thinking about how to solve the problem of this trip to Mobei, how could she suddenly think of eating?
"Don't think about how the master will punish me, if you want to eat, then eat quickly. She was dragged out of Xiao Ruoshui's complicated thoughts, and what was even more surprising was that her mind was actually guessed by Xiao Ruoshui, and everything seemed to be expected by Xiao Ruoshui.
"You know how to eat, you are still eating and eating when you are in trouble, why don't you eat and become a big fat man and become round. Li Yunmeng hurriedly used a burst of critical words to hide her panic and shyness in the past, after all, the embarrassment of being seen in her heart is indeed something that every girl does not want to face, and she is also very good at using reprimand to get rid of her unnaturalness.
"It's not okay to not eat, and it's not okay not to do things, so since they are all things that can't be done, why not take one of the two harms?" Xiao Ruoshui set the dishes, handed her the chopsticks, and then sat opposite her and slowly ate the dishes. The embarrassment just now suddenly disappeared. Only then did she have the heart to appreciate the dishes carefully cooked by Chef Xiao Ruoshui, only to see two cold dishes and four hot dishes on the table. Cold dishes are one meat and one vegetable, cold beef, cold fungus. The beef is cut thin and transparent, and the whole plate is evenly thickened and stacked neatly. The princess picked up a piece and shone it on the candle flame, glanced at it, ate it in her mouth, and couldn't help but praise, "The knife work is first-class." The taste of braised beef is even more first-class, and it actually uses Brother Zhou's heavenly knife technique "Tianshui Yishi", the taste of this braised meat seems to be the taste of the white water braised meat of the old Zhang family in Beijing, it is estimated that you steal other people's stunts, you can really do anything to eat. Looks like you've put a lot of effort into cooking. While admiring after the entrance, Li Yunmeng did not forget to sarcastically mock Xiao Ruoshui again.
"What you said is true, the beef is cut by the same knife method, and the marinade is indeed from the old Zhang family, but it is not stolen, it was given to me willingly by others. You try something else, even if you comment, don't bring anything that hurts others and doesn't benefit yourself. Finish eating. Eat well and be filled. Xiao Ruoshui was depressed when she heard Li Yunmeng's words, but her face was still unfazed, and she greeted her without changing her face and heartbeat.
"The fungus is a wild fungus from the Northeast, and it is very fresh. You copied it with boiling water. Then boil it a little with brine. Such fungus has the taste of beef, but there is already a plate of beef, but it looks the same. It's a bit of a hubble. Hey, by the way, why do you want me to comment on your cooking, is there any reason?" The princess tasted the fungus, and this time she didn't damage Xiao Ruoshui, but just put forward her own opinions pertinently. Then she asked Xiao Ruoshui curiously, staring at him with her eyes, as if she wanted to see the answer in his eyes.
"You are a member of the royal family, and you are also one of the people who have tasted the most delicacies in the world, and the chefs of the royal family have always been the best in the world, and you have the most right to speak, for this reason. Not to mention, try how these dishes are made. You've commented, even if you can't do anything in the future, it's not bad to be a cook. Xiao Ruoshui looked impatient, as if he was a child who had just learned something, eager to be recognized by adults.
The princess's face changed slightly, showing a little disappointed expression, but in a blink of an eye, she returned to her normal expression, and began to seriously comment on the dishes below.
After eating, Xiao Ruoshui packed up his things, sat on the recliner and closed his eyes and began to drink the Poria tea that had already been brewed, Li Yunmeng sat on the chaise longue on the other side of the small table, did not shake the chair, just leaned on the back of the chair with his hands and looked at Xiao Ruoshui, staring at Xiao Ruoshui without a glance, as if he wanted to see something from his face.
Suddenly, as soon as she stretched out her hand and was about to put it on Xiao Ruoshui's hand, Xiao Ruoshui opened her eyes, sighed and said, "Don't use mind reading, it's very consuming of internal strength, don't use it indiscriminately if you don't have enough internal strength now." It's not good for you. Li Yunmeng burst out laughing, withdrew her hand to cover her mouth and smiled, she said to Xiao Ruoshui in a threatening tone: "Then you tell me honestly, what do you want to do? ”
"That's not it, tomorrow we will escort the goods back to Fenghuangji, aren't you happy? Xiao Ruoshui opened his eyes and said jokingly to Li Yunmeng.
"You're in a bad brain, don't tell the truth, you come over to me and let me pinch it twice. Li Yunmeng opened her eyes, and her hand was about to reach Xiao Ruoshui's waist.
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you, I said it's not okay, don't come here. Xiao Ruoshui gave up the meaning of teasing Li Yunmeng, raised his hands and surrendered and made a gesture of mercy to Li Yunmeng, Li Yunmeng happily withdrew his right hand and looked at Xiao Ruoshui glaring at him. Xiao Ruoshui shook his head and said helplessly: "Tomorrow we will escort the fur to the Phoenix Collection, but there will be two people left in this place, and the famous thief couple in the martial arts will stay here, and they will go to Changbai Mountain to explore the treasure, and follow the martial arts people to hunt for treasures." ”
"Are you saying that the roles of the thief husband and wife are reversed with ours, and they are easy to walk?" Li Yunmeng's eyes blinked, and he immediately understood Xiao Ruoshui's plan.
"Yes, you're so smart, you don't need me to say it. I won't talk about it now. Xiao Ruoshui said complimentally, thousands of people wear it, but they don't wear it. It seems that this sentence is applicable everywhere.
"Don't be a sycophant, what are you going to do tomorrow, you have to prepare in advance, I'll go and see if Hua Xiaomei, the wife who steals the husband and wife, looks good, otherwise I'll always be ugly, it's too boring." After Li Yunmeng finished speaking, she jumped up from the chair and jumped out of the room to find Hua Xiaomei.
Xiao Ruoshui looked at Li Yunmeng, thinking about what she had just said, her face was speechless with surprise, she didn't say anything for a long time, and suddenly sat upright and fell on the chair without making a sound. (To be continued......)
