Dali Temple Small Dining Room 2

Chapter 30 Pumpkin Pie ([-])
Ji Caimai is almost a public kitchen where he clicks and enters, and there is still a quarter to go, and the time for the morning meal is over.

Therefore, the Korean food on the table is almost received.

The first thing I saw was the soft white porridge cooked on the countertop, which was nothing special.Ji Caimai took a glance and landed on the plate next to the porridge. On the plate were three orange-yellow round cakes shaped like pumpkins.

Huh?I haven't seen this before.Ji Caimai walked over with great interest, Wen Mingtang seemed to have just seen him, and quickly called out "Ji Caimai".

Ji Caimai waved his hand, looked down at the small round cake for a while, and asked, "Is it made of that pumpkin?"

Wen Mingtang nodded and said, "Yes, it's called pumpkin pie."

"It's quite suitable for the occasion." Ji Caimai clicked his lips, obviously aroused a little interest, and said, "Then have a taste!"

Wen Mingtang responded with a smile, and watched Ji Caimai sit down in the lobby, put the pumpkin pie into the pan and fry it.

Things that use oil are naturally the best when they are just out of the pan.

With one bite, Ji Caimai's eyes narrowed. Wen Mingtang didn't wait for his comment, but turned back to the countertop, and cleaned up the countertop together with A Bing and Tang Yuan.

When tidying up, Ah Bing couldn't help but want to take a look at Ji Caimai, but suddenly got kicked by Tangyuan.

Tangyuan shook her head at him, signaling him not to look.

Ji Caimai's people who want to save face are not the ones who like to be surrounded by people. If you really stare at him, maybe he won't like it.

Sure enough, after eating a pumpkin pie, Ji Caimai turned his head and said to Wen Mingtang, "I ate morning food when I came here, but I can't eat any more right now. I'll take these two away!"

Wen Mingtang said "Yes" and didn't ask any more questions. He just asked A Bing to get the oiled paper bag and buy it for Ji Cai so that he could take it away.

Seeing that Ji Caimai left without saying a word, Ah Bing couldn't help frowning. After Ji Caimai left, he hurriedly asked Wen Mingtang: "What does Ji Caimai mean? Do you like eating this round cake?"

Tangyuan glanced at him and said, "If you don't like it, why take it away?"

"Since you like it, why don't you say a few words about Master Wen?" A Bing said puzzled.

Who doesn't praise Master Wen's cooking?Why Ji Caimai just...

"Ji Caimai wants to serve water, so of course he won't say anything outright." Wen Mingtang glanced at him, shook his head, glanced at Tangyuan, who kept nodding, and said, "Tangyuan is quite clever."

This little girl named Tangyuan left a deep impression on her from the first time she saw her. If it wasn't for that, Jiang Laosou and the others wouldn't have chosen Tangyuan and A Bing to help her.

"However, although he doesn't know what he means, if he likes the morning food I made, the ingredients in the future must be very generous." Wen Mingtang said.

The small public chef of Dali Temple has a lot of quarrels between several chefs and buyers. She never intends to settle all the troubles in just a few days, so take it easy!
……

Wen Mingtang cleaned the public kitchen here, and handed it over to the next Master Sun.

But Zhao You, who brought the Chaoshi back there, was full of praise for Wen Mingtang's cooking skills again.

"Lin Shaoqing, I didn't say that! This newly hired Master Wen's cooking skills are really amazing. I can kill two of them by myself, oh no, it's for three people!" Zhao You said, Biting the sesame-stuffed pumpkin pie in his hand, he said, "It's the first time I know that Chaoshi has so many tricks. Lin Shaoqing, you say..."

Lin Fei on the side just ate slowly, following the eating etiquette of "don't talk when you eat, don't talk when you sleep", and never said a word to him.

It wasn't until Lin Fei finished one portion of the court food and Zhao You finished two portions of the court food that he said, "Go and call Liu Yuan here!"

Zhao You responded and ran to the lobby.

Just arrived at Dali Temple, Liu Yuan, who was gnawing Chaoshi steamed buns, let out a "hmm", held up the steamed buns in his hand, and said to Zhao You: "Wait a minute, I got up late today, and let me eat Chaoshi before going over! After finishing speaking, he handed another bun in the oil paper bag to Zhao You, and said, "Eat one too, give me a little time!"

This Zhao You's appetite is not ordinary, one meal is enough for two or three people, even if he has eaten Chaoshi, it doesn't matter if he eats a little more.Therefore, it has long been the practice of Liu Yuan and others to "bribe" him with food and drink.

It is still the same today.

Unexpectedly, Zhao You, who never refused on weekdays, glanced at the buns he handed over, clicked his lips, and shook his head: "No need, I'm full."

Yo!This one still has time to eat!Liu Yuan was surprised and couldn't help asking him: "What did you eat at Chaoshi? How can you be so full?"

Zhao You glanced at him and said, "I ate the morning food in the cafeteria—white porridge and pumpkin pie."

He knows white porridge, but what is pumpkin pie?
Liu Yuan was taken aback for a moment, and was about to continue asking, but Zhao You, who hadn't been "bribed" by food today, was very strict. Before he could speak, he urged, "Hurry up! Lin Shaoqing can't wait."

Liu Yuan had no choice but to take two mouthfuls of three mouthfuls at a time, stuffing Chaoshi into his mouth, then hastily grabbed the file with "Water Ghost" in his hand, got up, and followed Zhao You.

Swallowing as he walked, he almost didn't choke to death.

When he got to the door of Lin Fei's house, Liu Yuan was so choked that he rolled his eyes.

Zhao You, who never knew what caring was, of course ignored his choking panic, pushed him, and pushed him into Lin Fei's room, then closed the door unceremoniously, and guarded outside.

This guy surnamed Zhao is really a stickler!Liu Yuan couldn't help cursing inwardly, but luckily Shang Feng was considerate, seeing that he was about to choke to death, he handed him a cup of tea.

After drinking a cup of tea, the slightly better Liu Yuan spread out the scroll in front of Lin Fei and talked about the case.

"Lin Shaoqing's guess was right. The official found the purchase records of the three Yan Santongs in the Guhetang in the city. According to the shopkeeper of the Guhetang, this medicine bag is indeed used for medicinal baths." Liu Yuan said here, He pointed out the records extracted from the account book of Guhetang to Lin Fei, "There are not many people who bought this medicinal bath package, and the officials thought about it, and copied all the buyers in case they would need it. "

As Liu Yuan spoke, he winked at Lin Fei and said, "After all, this medicine...uh, it's about saving face. My lord, you understand. Most people don't want to buy this medicine."

Lin Fei looked up at him.

Liu Yuan was stunned by the sight, and quickly put away the nonsense, and continued to talk about the case: "After all, it is related to this kind of medicine, and the officials went to investigate Yan San on purpose. I don't know if I don't investigate, but I found something after the investigation."

Lin Fei gave a "hmm" and signaled him to continue talking.

"According to Mrs. Yan, she and Yan San just treat each other like guests in front of others and show it to outsiders. In private, they haven't seen each other once in ten and a half months, and they have already had their own lives," Liu Yuan said.

"As for the reason why we are strangers..." He pointed to the purchase record on the Guhetang, and said, "According to Mrs. Yan, this person is a despicable person with a good face!"
