Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 581. 580. The Tranquility of a Meal

Carrying a vegetable basket, when Li Zhen returned to the courtyard, Cui Gan and Cui Wanrong were already there.

It seems that he and Lao Du and Xuan Zang should have talked a lot.

"The Taoist priest is back? Do you need our help?"

Hearing Lao Du's words, Li Zhen waved his hand:

"No, you guys talk slowly, I can do it myself."

He didn't buy any big vegetables today, but he bought a big river fish, a lamb chop, some wild vegetables and a piece of tofu.

No way, a vegetarian is a little troublesome.

"The tower is big."

hum.

The golden light appeared.

The pot was filled with water, and after putting all the wild vegetables in the pot, the Taoist pointed:
"change."

The double centrifugal force of Tada Vegetable Washing Machine cleans up the wild vegetable silt within a few laps.

"It's all chopped up, take it easy, the pot can't stand your knife."

After explaining, waiting for the golden Ta Da honestly to squat by the well and chop stuffing, Li Zhen started to boil water.

The mutton chops were boiled in water, and the tofu was cut into thick slices, and then he cut a pocket in the middle with a knife.

With a sizzling sound, the oil and tofu collided and made a pleasant sound.

At this time, Cui Wanrong appeared at the door of the kitchen.

"What is Daoist Priest Shouchu doing?"

"Get out the monk's food first."

Li Zhen responded, and continued to work in the kitchen as if she didn't see the peach blossom-like shame in the woman's eyes.

Soon, the tofu was fried, and Ta Da also crushed the powder cut from the vegetarian stuffing.

He walked around Cui Wanrong with a wooden basin and came to the kitchen. After adjusting the taste, he filled the stuffing with tofu one by one, then spread a layer of batter to seal the seal, and fried it again in the pan to seal the seal After fixing, a large plate full of pocket tofu was put into the cage drawer next to it.

Underneath the cage is a pot of sorghum rice being boiled.

Then there was still some vegetable stuffing left, so he took thick soy beans and fried them into a plate of rice sauce with a rough Northeast style, and then started to process the fish.

The washed mulberry leaves are all over the cages. Although the river fish are not stabbed, they are cut into thin butterfly pieces. After washing them twice with salt water to remove the fishy smell, they are stacked one by one in the cages.

Slightly sprinkle some salt flowers to taste, and start cutting ginger again.

After covering the fish fillets with shredded ginger according to the amount of two pieces of fish, he took a look at the lamb chops again.

Seeing the lamb chops go in as soon as the chopsticks are inserted, and knowing that the heat is almost ready, they are not in a hurry to get out of the pot.

Instead, I made two dipping sauces with clear sauce and soybean oil, some flavorful wild vegetables and shredded ginger.

One is for lamb chops, slightly sour and greasy.

One is for fish, with shredded ginger, which enhances freshness and removes fishy smell.

Then, Ta Da appeared again, and after holding up the steamer, Li Zhen took a colander to fish out the sorghum rice that had been boiled for nearly an hour, and put it in a wooden basin filled with cold well water.

Immediately afterwards, the basket of steamed tofu in pockets was brought out.

On the remaining boiling water in the pot, the cage was set up again, and it started to stand still for a few seconds.

After counting 90 numbers, start cooking directly.

The steam came out vigorously, and Li Zhen didn't feel it was hot, so he directly took a plate of fish fillets out of the steamer.

Glancing at the woman who just quietly watched him cook without saying anything to disturb the meal, he smiled slightly:
"Let's get ready to eat."

With this smile, Cui Wanrong was in a trance.

Unconsciously nodded:
"it is good."

And when she went out, Tada appeared again.

With a few knives, the golden knife cut the lamb chops into individual shapes.

That's good.

……

"These... are all made by the Taoist priest?"

before the dinner table.

Rao is Cui Gan who is well-informed, but looking at the elegant and smooth fish fillets on the green leaves, the crystal-clear boiled lamb chops, and the plate of soft and juicy tofu...

Unconsciously, there was a tone of surprise and appetite.

Li Zhen nodded with a smile, and was about to serve sorghum water and rice to everyone with a big bowl.

Cui Wanrong subconsciously got up to help, but was waved by Li Zhen:
"I'll just come."

People in the Guan area may not eat rice with water, but people in the Northeast know how ecstasy it is to eat a bowl of sorghum rice with pickles in the hot summer.

Put water and sorghum rice into the sea bowl, and he served Xuanzang first.

"I put the rice out before steaming the fish, so you can eat it without worry. The sauce is full of vegetables, nothing else. The tofu is also vegetarian~"

"Amitabha, thank you, Daoist."

Xuanzang smiled.

After filling it up for several people, holding a bowl of sorghum rice, Li Zhen waved his hand:

"Everyone, eat."

After finishing speaking, he took a mouthful of rice with soup and water, put another chopstick of miso in his mouth, and narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

And others also imitated his way of eating, one mouthful of rice, one mouthful of sauce...

The simple and natural taste that comes from the black soil of Baishan is a little strange at first, but you can feel the simple taste immediately.

All of a sudden, everyone showed a satisfied look.

Then, Du Ruhui took a piece of fish and dipped it into the plate with shredded ginger and soybean oil according to Li Zhen's instructions.

The sweet taste of mulberry leaves, fish and soy sauce is inherited and the delicious taste of Canton.

All of a sudden, Du Ruhui was delighted again.

And finally, that lamb chop...

After the little apprentice took a sip of the dipping sauce, he smiled broadly.

"teacher."

"Ok?"

"Really delicious!"

"Haha~ Then eat more, it's time to grow your body."

Li Zhen helped him with a bag of tofu with a smile, his eyes full of kindness.

And others also nodded:
"Really delicious."

"It turns out that river fish still has this way of eating."

"Extremely delicious."

Touting the beauty summed up by the later generations, under this scorching summer, Li Zhen let out a comfortable sigh with a mouthful of ice-cold but especially smooth sorghum rice.

"Ha~"

Looking at the colorful tree shadows growing along the courtyard wall, he really hoped that there would be no disputes and disputes in this world, and that everyone could have a good meal in this hot summer and sleep well in the afternoon. feel, enjoying the happiness brought to them by the security of the world.

pity……

Thinking of this, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.

……

"Sir, Wang Shichong, welcome Your Majesty, my emperor Sheng'an."

"My Emperor Sheng'an!!"

"Ah."

Jiangdu.

Yang Guang waved his hands casually after hearing the words of the courtiers under the boat, and then yawned.

"Why is Jiangdu so hot this year?"

He is talking to himself.

As he spoke, he walked down the boat and said:
"Wang Aiqing."

"The minister is here."

"Let's set out in the palace. It's noon, don't bask in the sun here. Rest today, and go to court tomorrow, so let's all retreat."

After waving his hand to signal the officials to leave, as he marched, he led the Empress Xiao directly into the exquisite and magnificent chariot.

There is no intention of waiting for the officials behind.

Walked for half a month.

Finally, Jiangdu arrived.

Despite the beautiful scenery, he was also a little tired.

So just go if you want.

Who made him the emperor?

And those officials who followed the arrangement of the chariots and horses were not surprised. According to the arrangement of Jiangdu, they took the chariots and horses and got on the chariots separately.

The people who got off the boat were almost the same.

And at this moment, a figure wearing a bamboo hat appeared on the deck.

Holding the deck, the woman looked at the land under her feet through the veil, her eyes were a little dazed.

Behind him, Xue Rulong saw that the lord was not leaving, and asked tentatively:

"grown ups?"

"..."

The woman came back to her senses, and unconsciously turned her head to look at Xue Rulong.

The man is a little puzzled...

"?"

Seeing his puzzled eyes, suddenly, the woman under the bamboo hat let out a soft laugh:

"what."

Then without saying a word, he walked down the deck step by step.

And just when she was about to step into the land of Jiangdu, her steps faltered a bit.

It's like hesitating before leaving.

But in the next second, this hesitation disappeared without a trace.

There is no longer any trance in the eyes.

She just pursed her lips.

Firmly, put your foot down.

until……

Finally stepped on the land of Jiangdu.
