Chapter 49 Red Oil Copying Hands (6)
He was thinking in his heart, but his face remained calm.
Lin Fei followed Liu Yuan, walked to the stage, and looked at Wen Mingtang, who after greeting them, lowered his head to do things again.
Although he was working behind the counter, he was not like the previous chefs who cooked the dishes as if they were on a battlefield. Her countertop is very clean and neatly arranged. The pot with water boiling over low heat, the wrapped noodles, the prepared minced meat, and the small bowl of water to help knead the noodles are all neatly placed on the countertop. It looks inexplicably comfortable.
When the package was almost done, Wen Mingtang stopped. After putting the hand into the pot, he began to prepare the ingredients for the hand for the two of them.
Put the sauce, vinegar, salt, and pepper into the bowl, then scoop out a small spoonful of chicken soup, spread the sauce evenly, pick up the cooked rice noodles and put them into the bowl. Wen Mingtang asked the two of them: "Do you want red oil?" "
Liu Yuan was about to answer, but the moment he opened his mouth, he remembered that Shang Feng was still here, so he quickly closed his mouth, and then heard his own Shang Feng say: "I eat spicy food."
Wen Mingtang nodded and looked at Liu Yuan again: "Does Liu Sicheng eat spicy food?"
She remembered that when Liu Yuan ate fried buns today, he chose the sauce instead of spicy.
Liu Yuan compared the size of a finger and said: "A little bit."
Wen Mingtang smiled and nodded. He poured spicy oil on the two bowls of rice noodles and sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions. He pushed them in front of the two of them and said, "Mix well and eat!"
Liu Yuan responded hurriedly, took away the copybook, and walked with Lin Fei to the table closest to the table and sat down.
After mixing it briefly, he couldn't wait to pick up one and put it into his mouth. The leather of the hand is neither thick nor thin, just the right amount. The moment I took a bite, the fresh pork meat burst out with juices. I don't know if it was an illusion, but I always felt that the meat filling seemed to be slightly elastic. The moment I entered the mouth, the smooth skin soaked in sauce was mixed with the slightly elastic texture. The meat filling is tender and delicious, slightly spicy and fragrant.
Liu Yuan's acceptance of spicy food is obviously not high, but even though it is not high, he still enjoys it. He eats it with a few hands, and his lips turn red, and he secretes saliva while "hissing" while holding something in his hand. He refused to stop at all and continued to stuff one after another into his mouth.
Lin Fei on the side was a little bit beyond Wen Mingtang's expectation. His bowl was unusually spicy. Among them, she and Ji Caimai were the only ones who could accept the glutinous rice dumplings. Even his lips turned slightly red after eating them.
Although chili peppers are now available in Gein, there are not many dishes available. People don't eat much on weekdays, so they can't accept spicy food all at once. After all, accepting this is a gradual process.
Unexpectedly, Lin Shaoqing could eat without changing his expression. Wen Mingtang was quite surprised and couldn't help but look at him twice. He didn't notice that his move had another meaning in the eyes of Ji Caimai, who was eating and picking his teeth.
After Liu Yuan and Lin Fei finished eating and left, Ji Caimai walked up to Wen Mingtang, who was about to clean up the table with A Bing and Tangyuan. He lightly knocked on the table and said, "Master Wen, please take a step to speak."
Wen Mingtang said "hmm" and followed Ji Caimai to the side. Then he saw Ji Caimai looking at her with a serious face and said: "Master Wen, I am a bit busy, if it weren't for Xi Cai, I would definitely be too lazy." Please mind your own business!"
Wen Mingtang nodded, looked up at Ji Caimai, and asked, "What does Ji Caimai want to say?"
Looking at the girl's clear black and white eyes, Ji Caimai sighed and said: "I'm afraid there are few ladies who don't like Lin Shaoqing's skin. But people like him are kind-faced and cold-hearted. That background is destined to be in vain! Chef Zhou who was driven away earlier is the best example. Master Wen, do you understand?"
Hearing this, Wen Mingtang finally understood and hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Ji Caimai misunderstood. I don't have any thoughts about Lin Shaoqing."
Ji Caimai glanced at her and said, "I just saw you staring at him. This is how a young lady of your age likes a good-looking man like this."
Otherwise, how could there be such a statement as Young Mu Ai?
Wen Mingtang couldn't laugh or cry when she heard this, so she had to explain: "I just saw that Lin Shaoqing was surprised that Lin Shaoqing could eat spicy food so well," she explained, "His bowl of spicy oil was about the same as ours, but he ate it without changing his expression. He couldn't help but curious."
Only then did Ji Caimai realize that he was overthinking it and couldn't help but touch his nose in embarrassment. Then he coughed dryly and said, "That's why...Lin Shaoqing can eat spicy food because his mother was married to Jingyun before she was married." Hou has been living in Sichuan and Sichuan before, and the people in that place like spicy food. This habit of liking spicy food must have been brought to the Marquis Jingyun Mansion, so it is not surprising that Lin Shaoqing can eat spicy food."
Wen Mingtang suddenly realized.
Although it was a mistake, Wen Mingtang's answer made Ji Caimai completely relieved.
That's good! It's not easy to find a public chef that you like, but if he is taken away, it will be a waste.

After eating the red oil, Liu Yuan took the list of medicinal materials handed over by Lin Fei. After glancing at the strange names of medicinal materials, Liu Yuan saw his Shang Feng casually pull out a book from the bookshelf behind him.
Looking at the name on the cover of the book, Liu Yuan was silent: ...it's a medical book!
Since Lin Shaoqing became the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, his research has become more and more extensive. He has even read medical books. No wonder he understands these! He glanced at the name of the medicinal materials in his hand and thought to himself
While he was still hesitating, he saw Lin Fei raised his head and glanced at him.
Liu Yuan was excited and quickly left the room with the list of medicinal materials. It was getting too late and many pharmacies were closed, so we could only wait until tomorrow to check again.
Early the next morning, Liu Yuan came to the public kitchen. After eating a bowl of red oil, he left Dali Temple.
In the early morning, Wen Mingtang went to Dalao to deliver the morning food, and after cooking the morning food for several regular customers of the public kitchen, he took Ah Bing and glutinous rice balls with him and started clearing the table.
It was almost time to clean up. Master Sun, who was making lunch, walked into the public kitchen, met a few of them, and said hello with a smile: "Master Wen!"
Wen Mingtang nodded to him, called "Master Sun", then pointed to the empty table and said: "Today's breakfast is all gone, otherwise I'll treat Master Sun to a bowl of red oil."
Master Sun said "No problem", but his face became increasingly ugly.
He and Wang Junshan were scolded one after another by Ji Caimai for wasting food. The little girl named Wen said that all the food for the court had been eaten. He wouldn't believe it if he hadn't stabbed him intentionally!
Sure enough, dogs that bite don’t bark! She looks like an ordinary little girl, but she is not a good person on the inside! Too! Her father was a high-ranking official back then, how could he be some kind of docile rabbit? It's more like a cunning fox!
With a sigh in his heart, Master Sun narrowed his eyes slightly. He received a reply to his post with Wang Junshan, and he will go over to see that person soon. When the time comes...ha!
