Don't pretend, I'm the God of Cooking and I'll showdown!

Chapter 426 Surprise from Shen Jiayue!Lin Xu: Thank you, I was indeed surprised! 【Subscribe】

When he came downstairs, Lin Xu was just about to draw a lottery with Dundun in his arms.

Only then did I realize that the little guy didn't lie down on the service desk as usual, but got into his own cabin, and was sleeping soundly on his belly at the moment, and the blanket wasn't covered properly.

"Why are you sleeping in broad daylight?"

Shu Yun said:

"Mr. Chen was here when we were having dinner just now. He was afraid of being bullied by Mr. Chen, so he got into the hut and never came out. Only when Mr. Chen left did he find that he had fallen asleep inside."

Lin Xu reached in and gently touched the little guy's soft belly.

Dundun snorted, then hugged Lin Xu's hand with his paws, turned over and continued to sleep.

Obviously, you won't come out if you don't get enough sleep.

Lin Xu wanted to pull out his hand, but Dundun was sleeping soundly while hugging him, so let's take this opportunity to draw the prize.

See how well Dundun draws prizes while sleeping.

"lottery!"

With a silent recitation in my heart, the picture of the lottery draw immediately appeared in my mind.

According to the prompt of the system, Lin Xu chose the triple draw with a higher chance of winning.

The dish technique is stewed with a spoon, so that the repeated lottery draws will not affect the children's rest.

Not long after pressing the lottery button, the lottery turntable slowly stopped, and the system's prompt sound quickly came to mind:
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the perfect-level lost dishes-Fuyu stewed duck (from the book "Suiyuan Food List"), chicken tip soup (from the book "Jin Ping Mei"); for obtaining the perfect-level cooking technique-pot burning."

That's it? ? ? ? ? ?
Lin Xu was a little confused.

There is no problem with the pot roasting technique. With this technique, you can make pot roasted pork knuckles among the three elbows in Jinan. In addition, you can also cook pot roasted beef, pot roasted lamb and other dishes, which are all new dishes suitable for winter.

The Fuyu stewed duck is also good. The so-called Fuyu is actually dried abalone.

Stewed duck with abalone is actually not a lost tradition, because many people will habitually add some more expensive ingredients to the stewed duck, such as matsutake abalone or something.

However, the Fuyu stewed duck recorded in "Suiyuan Food List" is different from the current practice on the market.

First of all, the method is not to stew, but to simmer. In addition, ham and other ingredients should be put into it. Finally, and most importantly, the soup must be clear and extremely delicious.

Basically no one can do this.

And even if it is done, the taste and texture of the restored Fuyu stewed duck is not the one recorded by Yuan Mei.

Because although the book "Suiyuan Food List" is still there, Suiyuan dishes have long been lost. Even if they are encountered now, they are different from what is recorded in the book.

Lin Xu didn't expect to be able to win this dish, and felt that it was going to shock several cultural people again.

The only surprise for him was to get chicken tip soup.

The origin of the chicken tip soup in "Jin Ping Mei" is very simple. After Ximen Qing's death, the family declined. Chun Mei, Pan Jinlian's former personal maid, married Lord Guard, and jumped to the top.

Chunmei, who has transformed into a high-ranking official, accidentally sees Sun Xue'e, the fourth wife of Ximen's family who was once in charge of the cook, among the refugees.

This is a pair of old enemies. When Pan Jinlian first entered Ximen's house, she sang with Chunmei for the sake of standing up. She used lotus leaf cakes and silver fish soup to instigate the relationship between Ximen Qing and Sun Xue'e, resulting in Sun Xue'e being beaten.

Now that she saw Sun Xue'e again, Chunmei still wanted revenge, so she bought Sun Xue'e home and asked her to cook and serve her.

At first everything was fine, but not long after, Chunmei's former lover, Ximenqing's son-in-law Chen Jingji appeared, and Chunmei's restless heart became active again.

She wanted to hook up with Chen Jingji again, and was worried that Sun Xue'e, who knew about it, would report herself in front of the defense, so she designed to find a reason to kill Sun Xue'e.

The reason Chunmei was looking for was chicken tip soup.

The so-called chicken tip is not the chicken butt that ordinary people understand, but the tip of the chicken wing.

Thin and tasteless, stewing or grilling is okay, but making soup is a bit difficult.

Chunmei asked Sun Xue'e to make this soup, just like Lu Tisha sitting in front of the meat stall and asking Zhenguanxi to chop ten catties of meat dumplings, it was just an excuse to make things difficult.

But this time he suddenly picked this soup, which made Lin Xu very speechless:

"System, didn't you come here to entertain Sajia?"

How good can this fault-finding soup be.

Relatively speaking, Lin Xu is still more concerned about the eggplant dish in "A Dream of Red Mansions", which is known as the number one dish in the book.

I don't know what it is like to make Grandma Liu so full of praise.

Just thinking about it, a lot of experience flooded into my mind.

After reading it, Lin Xu turned into a black question mark face again.

Because the chicken tip soup that he disliked just now turned out to be a very good soup.

After blanching the chicken wings, remove the bones, cut them into thin shreds, add ingredients such as bamboo shoots and pepper and seasonings to make a hot and sour soup, which is actually delicious in color, fragrance and taste.

I am narrow-minded!

He bent down and glanced at Dundun who was sleeping soundly in the hut, and whispered:
"My good son, I will make you a bullfrog today."

As soon as the words fell, Dundun held Lin Xu's hand in his sleep, and licked it with his scarlet little tongue.

This……

Did you take my hand for a bullfrog?
Gently pulling out his hand, Lin Xu took the dolphin pillow Shu Yun bought and stuffed it in, letting Dundun continue to sleep with his arms around him.

Back upstairs, he washed his hands, and saw Shen Jiayue staring at the sweet skin duck and the rabbit head in front of him bitterly.

"Why don't you eat?"

"I can't eat anymore...Xu Bao said that it will still be delicious when it gets cold later?"

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"I'll just reheat it for you. If it doesn't work, we can make it ourselves. It's not difficult. As long as my baby wants to eat, it's not a problem."

Shen Jiayue raised her head and asked suspiciously:

"Why are you so good at talking? Did Master secretly teach you the Book of Love?"

"Master can't care about me, isn't he trying to give you the best, so that you can always be so carefree and happy."

"Thank you Xu Bao, you can go to work, I will continue to edit the film."

After finishing speaking, Shen Jiayue put the sweet duck aside, reopened the laptop, and started editing the film.

Lin Xu returned to the kitchen with the packaged lo-mei.

After he entered, a big baby who was pretending to edit the video waved his fist excitedly.

Wow Kaka, Xu Bao's words are too sweet.

Ten thousand times sweeter than sweet duck!
No, I want to surprise him.

Thinking of this, Shen Jiayue picked up her phone and sent Chen Yan a message:
"Yan Bao, I want to surprise Xu Bao, can you give me an idea?"

Chen Yan, who was sitting in the office thinking about what to have for dinner, immediately became interested when she saw the news.

I thought that no one would consult me ​​about relationship issues after leaving the single, but I didn't expect this to happen. If so, then Dr. Chen's consultation clinic should continue to open.

She replied:

"Surprises between couples are easy, such as buying sexy little clothes, stockings, or dressing up as a nun, doctor, and teacher..."

Looking at the message sent, Shen Jiayue blushed for a while:
"Hey, hey, I'm just asking for a surprise, you actually give such an embarrassing suggestion."

"Hey, I gave you advice out of good intentions, but you still dislike it. You are embarrassed. Isn't it embarrassing for me at the age of eighteen?"

"Okay, Yan Bao, you're an old woman who is four years old, and you're still eighteen years old here. It's no use asking you, I'd better search the Internet."

Chen Yan: "..."

You actually said I was an old woman!

Smelly Yueyue, you are the old lady who is going to be on the fourth day!
Mr. Chen was incompetent and furious for a while in the office, then picked up the small mirror on the desk and looked at his fair, tender and clean face.

"Am I really old? Will Ren Jie dislike my aunt?"

She read and thought about it, and finally got up, took her bag and walked out, just as she opened the door, she bumped into Sister Weiwei.

"Are you going out, Mr. Chen?"

"Well, go to a spa, and then have a full-body skin rejuvenation. After a woman is over [-], she has to treat herself better."

Sister Weiwei blinked:
"Haven't you passed your thirtieth birthday?"

Chen Yan: "!!!!!!!"

Ahhhhh why do you mention my age again?

Are you collectively jealous of my beauty?
Shen Jiayue, who still didn't know that she had ruined her cousin's mentality with one sentence, searched the Internet for questions about surprising her boyfriend, and a bunch of answers immediately appeared below.

"Give him an hour or two of free time every day."

"Don't nag him to play games, don't touch his private money."

"Men are nostalgic, don't take the initiative to buy him new underwear."

"There are new graphics cards and game consoles on the market, buy them for him as soon as possible."

"Give him big-name detergents, and those who are reluctant to spend money can put Dabao SOD honey in their leftover empty bottles, and he will be so touched that he will cry."

"Play games with him, even if he is a little stupid, he will be very happy."

"..."

Well, there are so many!

Shen Jiayue looked at it carefully, and then searched for the graphics card, remembering that the graphics card used in the computer at home is 3080Ti, and the latest one is 4090, so buy a new graphics card.

She immediately placed an order and bought a 4090 graphics card.

There are many brands of graphics cards, and Fu Po Shen didn't know which one to buy, so she simply bought the most expensive one.

Anyway, it's only tens of thousands of dollars. If it can bring Xu Bao a surprise, it will be worth it.

After buying the graphics card, she thought of the suggestion of playing games with him.

Shen Baobao is not very interested in games, but he can accompany Xubao, so he bought a PS5 game console and added a controller after buying it, so that two people can play the same game.

Hahahaha, it must be very enjoyable.

She placed the order in the same city, so all these graphics cards were delivered to the store before dinner.

In order to make Lin Xu feel more pleasantly surprised, Shen Jiayue drove back and put these things at home.

Hmph, after get off work, there will be surprises.

At this time, Lin Xu didn't know the surprise arranged by his baby, and was still thinking about when it would be more appropriate to serve the sweet duck.

The sweet-skinned duck uses a relatively small shelduck, which is completely opposite to the Muscovy duck used to make ginger ducks.

If there is a new one, you have to make an appointment with Lao Huang in advance, and you have to increase the manpower for the stewed food department. After all, the existing dishes alone make Xu Xinhua and the others very busy.

Today's dinner is relatively simple. I eat claypot rice made by Guo Xinghai. The rice is covered with sausage and other ingredients. The rice has absorbed the cured flavor, and the bottom is crispy crispy rice.

Everyone's mouth was full of oil.

As for the sweet-skinned duck and rabbit head brought back from Diaoyutai, they were all eaten before dinner.

After eating and drinking enough, the evening peak arrives.

Everyone is put into a tense working state.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Lin Xu, who was almost too busy, left work with his wife and children.

When returning home and changing shoes, Shen Baobao said with a smile:
"Xu Bao, I have prepared a little surprise for you."

Little surprise?
Lin Xu didn't care either.

He was going to clear all the games tonight, so after changing his shoes, he planned to go upstairs and turn on the computer.

But when he saw the box on the coffee table in the living room, he suddenly froze.

"Dang, clang, clang! Isn't it a surprise?"

Shen Jiayue proudly picked up two boxes, one was a 4090 graphics card, and the other was a PS5 game console.

For men, these are very attractive.

"Are you happy? Are you happy?"

Lin Xu smiled helplessly, opened the drawer under the TV cabinet, and took out a set of PS5 from inside:

"Do you think I should be happy now, or not?"

I have had a game console at home for a long time, but I have never played it.

As for 4090, there are mixed reviews online.

The 3080Ti computer that Lin Xu is currently equipped with has a good power supply, motherboard, and CPU. If it is replaced with a 4090, the power supply of the computer must be replaced, otherwise the graphics card will not work.

And if the power supply is changed, the motherboard must also be upgraded to the latest high-end one, otherwise it will not match.

In addition, the 12th-generation i7 processor currently used must be replaced with an i9, otherwise it will be a small horse-drawn cart when paired with a graphics card, and it will not match.

In this way, the heat dissipation must be updated, the chassis must be replaced with a tower-style large chassis, and memory modules and the like must also be increased.

Therefore, after adding a graphics card, the entire computer has to be replaced with a new one.

Not to mention spending money, just the time wasted...

Lin Xu explained it to Baby Shen in detail, and originally wanted to say quit, but seeing the girl's unhappy face, he said:

"Let's stay here for now. I'll ask Yue Liyue these two days to see when he's not busy, and ask him to help me upgrade my computer... As for this PS5, just use it as a backup."

Well, after all, it's a well-prepared surprise for the baby, so don't spoil her interest too much.

Lin Xu looked at a pair of wireless handles installed beside him, and asked curiously:

"What do you buy two controllers for? Is there an event?"

"No, I just want to play games with you. People say that playing games with your boyfriend can make him very happy. I want to try."

After hearing this, Lin Xu stopped going upstairs to play games, but connected the PS5 to the TV, and then adjusted the two handles, and then said:

"Then let's find a simpler two-player game to play."

Shen Jiayue heard it:
"Wow, can you still play like this? Let's start after I change my clothes."

She excitedly went upstairs to change into a more comfortable set of home clothes, then moved the coffee table aside, pushed the sofa forward, sat in front of the TV, and began to choose games.

Lin Xu had played solo games before, so it was not easy to find a two-player game.

He simply logged into the mall to search, and found the PS5 version of the ancient game Contra.

I remember playing with Sister Yuanyuan when I was in elementary school, and being twisted twice by her because she ran too fast and didn't wait for Sister Yuanyuan. Now that I saw this game again, Lin Xu immediately chose to buy it.

After successful installation it says:
"Come on, I'll take you to play a game I played with Sister Yuanyuan when I was a child, and let you get acquainted with it first."

Shen Jiayue saw that it was a shooting game, and immediately became interested:
"Okay, okay, when I traveled abroad with my parents a few years ago, I got several ten rings in the shooting range. Today I will show you my talent in shooting."

After opening the game and selecting the two-player mode, familiarize yourself with the operation first, and then the game will start.

"Wow, it's so exciting, the gun will change after eating, this goddess is really good at scattering flowers, hahaha, don't even need to look at it, just shoot it..."

Shen Jiayue had never played this kind of game before.

In addition, I was operating with Lin Xu, so I became excited.

Lin Xu originally didn't want to talk too much, but when he saw the girl's actions, he couldn't help reminding:
"Baby, I'm the one using the flower bomb, and your character is behind. Come on, let's jump forward together, or the character you control will die again."

"Oh……"

Shen blushed for a while, but fortunately no video was recorded and Yan Bao was not there, otherwise he would definitely laugh at him.

Well, although playing games is very fun, you must also be reserved and not yell.

But within two minutes...

"Ah ah ah ah I'm about to fall, Xu Bao quickly grabbed me, hurry up...it's over, hang up again."

After passing the first level with difficulty, Lin Xu asked:

"How about it, is it okay to play games?"

"It's so cool, keep going, let you see what Ben Iron Lady is doing, it's amazing!"

Shen Jiayue sighed in her heart as she spoke.

It is indeed right to ask Baidu about internal affairs. Playing games with your boyfriend is cool and exciting. It is so fun. This kind of exciting game really makes girls irresistible.

Lin Xu yawned subtly.

It feels like playing games with my cousins ​​at home during the summer vacation.

After playing until after ten o'clock in the evening, when the low battery warning of the handle, Lin Xu said:

"Okay, okay, I won't play anymore, the handle is out of battery, just turn on the battery, we should wash up and go to bed, and we have to get up early tomorrow."

"Good good!"

However, when Lin Xu walked out of the bathroom after taking a shower, he found that Baby Shen was not in the bedroom.

I didn't find it in Dundun's room.

It wasn't until I went downstairs that I realized that the TV in the living room was on and the lights were off. A pretty figure was sitting in front of the TV, playing the single-player version of Contra by himself.

This……

Addicted?
Lin Xu coughed lightly, and Shen Jiayue quickly turned off the TV and game console, got up and said:
"Have you finished washing? I just... just to see if the handle is fully charged..."

"Playing games like this is not good for your eyes. Sony's TVs are notorious for their bright colors, and it hurts your eyes even more in low light... Let's go upstairs to sleep and stop sneaking down to play."

"Oh……"

Holding the hand of his new "Internet addict girl", Lin Xu said:

"You have to relax while playing games. You can't be addicted, and you can't disrupt your original routine. Otherwise, what's the difference between you and those nerds with dark circles?"

"I see, after that, after get off work at night, can you play with me for a while?"

"Of course it's fine."

Shen Jiayue jumped for joy, and arched Lin Xu's shoulder with her head:

"Thank you husband~"

After finishing speaking, he desperately tried to make up for himself:
"Actually, playing games isn't bad at all. At least I didn't eat anything tonight, right? I want to use games instead of supper every night from now on...it's not too much."

The young couple looked at Dundun, then went back to the room and went to bed to rest.

Soon, the weekend will come.

Lin Xu took his fiancée Shen Jiayue, cousin Chen Yuanyuan, sister-in-law Chen Yan, and son Dundun to the North Fourth Ring Road.

Behind his car, Dou Wenjing was driving her own BMW 5 Series. In the car sat Brother Feng and two staff members who went through formalities, and were going to follow the boss to the headquarters of Maisa Rui.

Choose a car, test drive, sign the contract!
