Zhu Tian: The Fiery Years Begin with Taking Qin Huairu as a Concubine

Chapter 164 Fire

Zhang Kaiwu found a deserted place, took out two pounds of pork, returned home early, and started to tidy up the kitchen.

The inside has been cleaned thoroughly by those who don't want to go to school.

bright and clean.

Qin Huairu came running to help with a smile on her face. She is the royal fire-making master.

Save firewood.

A few people who had heard of his craft but had never seen it came to watch.

Zhang opened his hands and taught him how to knead the dough skillfully, and let it ferment there.

He chopped several pounds of cured pork ribs and a two or three pound salted fish.

Soak these things in warm water and wash them clean after a while.

He began to cut the meat, leaving a piece of pork rind for the pot.

Let Qin Huairu start to light the fire and wait until smoke starts to come out of the pot.

Zhang Kaiwu wiped the iron pot vigorously with pig skin, poured water to wash the pot, and then wiped it again.

After the pot was boiled, he asked Qin Huairu to light the stove.

Stir-fry the cured pork ribs for a while, then stew them in a pot on the stove.

I got some potatoes and plan to add them in later to make a stew of potatoes and cured pork ribs.

After a while, the dough is fermented, kneaded, and then the buns are steamed.

Wang Tiantian, Hu Meiniang and others were picking vegetables and watching Zhang Kaiwu deal with those things.

Wang Tiantian had heard about Zhang Kaiwu's excellent cooking skills a long time ago, and this time she wanted to see it for herself.

Nowadays, people like to learn some cooking skills, but unfortunately, today’s chefs don’t cook in public.

He didn't even dare to take a peek without his own apprentice's permission.

How to cook well, these things are all secrets!
After a while, Zhu Zhiyin also came back with Emile and watched him making preparations there.

Zhang Kaiwu looked at this silly girl from the beautiful country and said with a smile:

"Emile! I! Make! You! Eat!"

Emile was so happy that his eyes were full of smiles. He smiled and said:

"Dear Zhang! Good! Good!"

Emil said to Zhu Zhiyin beside him with a smile:

"My dear! Zhang is so amazing. Is he cooking for me? He looks so charming when he cooks. I am so happy!"

"How good is his cooking? Even if his cooking is terrible, I will happily finish it!"

Zhu Zhiyin said helplessly:

"He's a great cook! I didn't eat at the school cafeteria, so I came here just to eat, didn't I?"

"He's not cooking for you or me. He's too lazy! He's just practicing his cooking skills. This is his hobby."

Emil pulled Zhu Zhiyin and asked with a smile:

"My dear! Are you jealous of me again? He just said clearly that he cooked it for me! Are you unhappy?"

Zhu Zhiyin looked at her with a smile and stopped talking nonsense.

Zhu Zhiyin had already lost hope for Emil's infatuation. She found a chair and sat down in the restaurant to read a book while waiting for dinner.

Emile was left there, infatuated with him, and even the aroma of the steamed buns made her shout and praise them.

Although Zhang Kaiwu’s cooking skills are indeed very good and the steamed buns he makes are delicious, Zhu Zhiyin also likes to eat them.

But what about your reserve?
.....................

Zhu Zhiyin knew Zhang Kaiwu very well because she had had several in-depth conversations with him that touched on their respective ideals and viewpoints, and Zhang Kaiwu did not hide his opinions.

This person seems to be: polite, modest, prudent, gentle and kind.

In fact: Zhang Kaiwu has many secrets: arrogant, proud, chauvinistic, conceited, vicious, and has many secrets!
But Zhu Zhiyin also liked him, was poisoned by him, and loved him to death.

Before becoming Zhang Kaiwu's concubine, Zhang Kaiwu did not hide these shortcomings and did not engage in any deceptive behavior.

She was a smart and wise person, and Zhang Kaiwu did not hide these shortcomings, just letting her make her own judgment and choice. She did not want to pursue these things, and she also knew that she could not pursue secrets, otherwise they would not be able to be husband and wife.

Even a girl as innocent as Wang Tiantian, after hanging out with Zhang Kaiwu for a short time, became very familiar with the false accounting.

Zhang Kaiwu's research institute hadn't done anything at all, but had already spent two sums of money perfectly.

A female college student studying western medicine spends all day studying how to make false accounts! ?

I study the notebook every day just to please Zhang Kaiwu!

Wang Tiantian didn’t care, after all, she was his eighth concubine.

It's rare for Emile to have a good ending!
.....................

After the aroma of steamed buns wafted up, the aroma of cured pork ribs in the jar also wafted up.

Zhang Kaiwu added potatoes, seasoned them and continued to stew.

Half an hour later, the fragrance wafted throughout the house.

Zhang Kaiwu started cooking. He cooked at a very fast speed, combining strength and beauty.

One is stir-fried pork with pepper, and the other is shredded pork with fish flavor.

Four green vegetables and a piece of salted fish.

A bowl of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

The delicious dishes came out of the pot quickly, and several people hurriedly served the dishes.

Qin Huairu also cooked a pot of cornmeal porridge in another stove.

The young ladies also all came down, and a group of people gathered around the table, each holding a big steamed bun in their hands.

Chen Xueru has reached her glorious moment again, together with Zhang Kaiwu.

Smilingly said:

"Sisters! Brother Kaiwu's cooking skills have improved again. Everyone, please feel free to eat."

Everyone started eating and drinking, eating vegetables and steamed buns, and there was no time to talk.

Wait until almost one steamed bun is gone into the stomach.

We just started talking and laughing and being polite, chatting leisurely.

Emile had already eaten a steamed bun, picked up another one, and used chopsticks to pick up the food clumsily. She was too slow.

As Emile ate, he mumbled:

"Oh my god! It's so delicious! Everyone, don't fight over it. Leave a piece of the fish for me, and leave a bowl of bones and potatoes for me!"

"Don't fight over this spicy pork with peppers. I'm not afraid of spicy food and I like it too!"

pity!

The few people who could understand Emile's words ignored her.

Wang Tiantian was busy stuffing food into her mouth, while keeping an eye on what to pick up with her next chopsticks to taste better.

All the dishes cooked by Brother Kaiwu are delicious, she is too busy to handle them all!

For the sake of her child's nutrition, Zhu Zhiyin had no time to greet her best friend and was busy eating her food in a subtle but quick manner.

You should also be polite and drink a bowl of pork rib soup.

Zhang Kaiwu could only pretend not to understand!

The young ladies really didn't understand and just thought that this foreign woman was crazy and talking to herself.

The young lady and her group of people, including Lin Xiaoniang and Huizhen, were still very afraid of Emile.

The blue eyeballs are so scary!

Zhang Kaiwu's cooking skills have become more and more sophisticated.

Level 160 Cooking Skills: 500-.

I estimate that he is a chef above level seven, almost reaching level six.

His skills have improved a lot during this period, which is already very impressive in this era when there is a shortage of chefs.

There were eight dishes and one soup, and although the portions were large, they were still eaten up completely.

There are a little too many people.

Even the bottom of the plate was stained by the steamed buns, so I had to scrub it clean.

The last person had a small bowl of cornmeal porridge, drinking it while chatting to help digestion.

Even though everyone wasn't full, no one said it was too little.

In today's world, if you can have a table full of food and it tastes so good, what is there to complain about?

Even if Zhang Kaiwu only had steamed buns and cornmeal porridge for them to eat, it was still very respectable!

Even someone as respectable as Zhu Zhiyin would use the steamed buns to wash the bottom of the plate to avoid wasting oil or water!
For the sake of the children!
Emil kept muttering to Zhu Zhiyin:

"My dear! You just grabbed a piece of my meat. I had already picked it up, but you still took it away. I thought you were picking it up for me. Have you forgotten our friendship?"

"In that bowl of soup just now, I only had three ribs, and the rest were potatoes. There are five ribs in your bowl. Although potatoes are delicious, ribs are my favorite." Zhu Zhiyin said in a low voice awkwardly:
"Emile! You should be more respectful when you eat! I haven't finished my plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes just now, and I remember you rushed to take it away. It's impolite to behave like this at the table. This is my favorite dish, and I'm not angry with you!"

"When there is no food on the plate, people will be polite to take it. And I am pregnant, so I need to eat more food."

Emil smiled as she explained:
It's delicious! If you like it, just say so like I do!
Just make it up for me! You spend more time eating in the restaurant, why don’t I see you eat more for the sake of your child! ?

Wang Tiantian rubbed her belly shyly, her hands and feet were very skillful. She was sitting in a good position, so she ate too much without being careful!
She ate two steamed buns, a big bowl of pork rib soup, and so many dishes in one go.

Everyone else knew Zhang Kaiwu's cooking skills, so they knew when to grab the food and had a plan when eating the steamed buns.

The young ladies and sisters Liang Ladi only eat one steamed bun at most, and they eat more vegetables and less rice.

Qin Huairu was like this, holding half a steamed bun and eating it slowly.

After they had a good life, they had become accustomed to the routine.

Only those who try Zhang Kaiwu's skills for the first time will unknowingly eat a little too much.

The young ladies' study group went upstairs to study after dinner, so there was no need for Zhang Kaiwu to remind them.

In two months, they will take entrance exams and they want to strive to be admitted to a higher grade.

A few sneaky guys were left behind, washing dishes with a smile on their faces.

Zhu Zhiyin looked at Emile who was also washing dishes and trying to please the man.

He pouts and takes Xiaohua upstairs to check on the young ladies' studies.

If she has time, Zhu Zhiyin always tries to improve her favorability so that there will be someone to take care of her children in the future.

Zhang Kaiwu mixed several dozen kilograms of wheat and corn together, threw them into the pot, and said to Qin Huairu:
"Sister Huairu! Come quickly and light the fire to cook the wheat."

Qin Huairu ran over, skillfully lit a fire and started burning it.

Zhang Kaiwu added water into the pot, enough water to just cover the wheat and corn.

Qin Huairu asked curiously:

"Brother Kaiwu! What are you doing? You didn't even wash this and cooked it. Is it going to taste good like this!?"

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"This is the fish food I made for fishing. Would you like to try some?"

Qin Huairu glared at him with bulging eyes and said:

"Brother Kaiwu! You are wasting precious food. You can just dig up some earthworms or something and go fishing!"

"Why can't we eat these precious grains? They can be eaten raw, not to mention cooked."

"In the past, our family couldn't even eat as much wheat as you did in a year. You're such a spendthrift."

Zhang Kaiwu pinched her face, ignored her as a fool, and gave her a beating.

Of course you can fish with earthworms, but how many fish can you catch?
Many big fish don't eat earthworms at all.

If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools!
Wang Tiantian also ran over curiously and watched him fiddling with the corn and wheat.

When the water in the pot just boiled, Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:

"Sister Huairu! That's enough. No need to keep the fire burning."

Zhang Kaiwu was playing with two walnuts with a smile on his face, and he was chatting with Huairu.

I'm going to beat her to death at dinner tonight.

Huairu said with a smile: Who do you want to scare! ?
Wait for those things to be simmered in the pot with the residual fire. After a while, they are probably about 70% cooked.

Zhang Kaiwu used a colander to drain the water from them and brought them into the laboratory.

Wang Tiantian followed curiously, wanting to see what was going on. Could he be doing an experiment?
After they were spread out and cooled, Zhang Kaiwu put them in a jar and threw some yeast into it.

Stir it a bit, cover it and leave it alone. The rest is up to time to ferment.

Zhang Kaiwu gave the curious Wang Tiantian a kiss and played with two small walnuts.

She was taken to the laboratory to learn drinking techniques, which she had never tried before.

Everyone else has already drunk, so she, the eighth concubine, cannot be let down.

Zhang Kaiwu is always patient when teaching new people.

He stroked Wang Tiantian's student-like hairstyle and taught her how to drink.

If the feelings are deep, take a sip; if the feelings are shallow, take a lick.

the weather is too hot!
After a while, the sound of babbling singing was heard in the laboratory.

Unfortunately, Wang Tiantian was too young after all, and was beaten to the ground in a short while.

Shouting desperately:

"Brother Kaiwu! He's dead, dad, please spare my life!"

Zhang Kaiwu speechlessly carried her to the room on the second floor and let her rest.

The kind-hearted Emil followed him upstairs to take care of Wang Tiantian. Within half an hour, he was shouting:

"Zhang! No! Oh my god! No! Oh my god! Die! Die! Die! Die!"

Emile fell down without a word.

He returned to the lady's room and beat Chen Xueru and Huizhen half to death, and they fell down groaning.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lin Xiaoniang's eyes were full of seductiveness and she cried out:

"Master! You'd better kill me today. I won't live any longer! Help! Master, please hit me! Beat me to death!"

Seeing what she meant, Zhang Kaiwu slapped her a few times in silence and cursed loudly:

"You slut! Ugh! Go to hell!"

Lin Xiaoniang was also hesitant and was beaten unconscious.

………………

I had just finished my meal and went upstairs. In Su Xiaoyao's room, Hu Meiniang was chatting with her while she was washing up.

Su Xiaoyao asked sourly:
"Don't you want to save face, Mr. Hu? Why are you planning to stay at my place for a few days? Are you addicted to seducing my man?"

Hu Meiniang said shyly:
"Little demon girl! I have no other choice. It's a chaotic situation. Mr. Zhang wants me to stay here for a few days. I am a weak woman and I dare not resist such a ruthless man."

"I also protested against his rape of women! I told him this morning that if he had the guts, he could kill me, or we, the brothel girls, would fight him to the death!"

Su Xiaoyao asked in surprise:

"What!? Aunt Hu! Are you so bold that you dare to talk to Brother Kaiwu like this!?"

"He hates threats the most in this matter. You are in trouble today! It's all over! I will stay at Ladi's place for one night to avoid being implicated by you. If you want to die, then go ahead and die!"

Seeing that Su Xiaoyao was about to run away, Hu Meiniang quickly pulled her arm and said timidly:

"Xiao Yao! We have been good sisters for many years! We share happiness and difficulties together!"

"When you first debuted, I took care of you. Have you forgotten that?!"

"When you went on stage to sing just now, I was cheering for you from below. Besides, I also announced your name, so you can't run away!"

Su Xiaoyao: “…”

After a pause, Su Xiaoyao cursed:

"You slut! You don't want to be a legitimate concubine, but you have to do some sneaky things!"

"You're always thinking about that broken stage. Just like what Kaiwu said, you're just a lowly slave!"

Hu Meiniang said awkwardly:

"Little demon! Sisters working together can break metal! Let's talk about those things later! What if he comes to beat us up later!?"

After discussing for a while, the two of them went to the young lady's room, where Su Xiaoqi and the others were studying.

They wanted to call their other two sisters to share the suffering and die together.

Seeing that the learning atmosphere inside was very good, Zhu Zhiyin was taking Mu Chunhua to explain to them the problems they encountered in their studies.

The two of them chatted with everyone with a smile and waited for the opportunity.

After a while, Emile's exaggerated shouting could be heard, and after a while, Lin Xiaoniang's desperate crying could be heard...

Su Xiaoyao and Hu Meiniang heard the bad noise and quickly called back the two young teachers who were studying.

He was still explaining:

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Brother Kaiwu lost his temper today. Everyone, go get ready early!"

The study group dispersed and Liang Ladi and her sister went back to wash up.

Qin Huairu ran to wash up with a smile and said:
"What are you afraid of! Fight him!"

Zhu Zhiyin looked at their frightened expressions and said speechlessly:

"Chunhua! Don't go crazy with them here, let's go back first!"

Mu Chunhua knew that Sister Zhiyin was scared and didn't want to be hurt by mistake, so she smiled and ran downstairs with Zhu Zhiyin.

Little Hua doesn’t have so many needs. She was severely beaten yesterday.

The young ladies also went to wash up with a smile on their faces. They were going to study for a while longer.

But we must also take precautions.
