Chapter 144 Braised Pork (4)
Due to the long stew, the fatty meat melts almost as soon as you eat it, while the lean meat is already soft and rotten. The rich and sticky salty aroma of the sauce is slightly sweet, sweet but not greasy, and it makes it more delicious. sweet.
Watching Liu Yuan put the braised pork into his stomach, he couldn't wait to scoop a spoonful of the thick sauce and cover it on the white rice.
Most people's tongues sometimes have no clue how to eat. Rice wrapped in such a thick oily red sauce can be said to be a real rice cooker. There are other things like his that are wrapped in braised pork sauce and mixed with rice. Quite a few, even Wen Mingtang, who was in charge of serving the dishes, made two grumbles in his stomach, indicating that he wanted to eat.
However, as a qualified cook, Wen Mingtang still endured it. Sitting behind the counter, Wen Mingtang couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled while watching the people eating at the table.
People say that the greatest compliment to a cook is to eat every last morsel of her food. She obviously received a lot of praise today.
When the evening meal was over, Wen Mingtang scooped up rice, vegetables and meat and began to eat her share of the evening meal. When the rich and mellow sauce aroma of braised pork was being tasted between my lips and teeth, a double happiness that had not been seen for a long time came.
"Master Wen, it smells so good!" He was carrying the food box, and his eyes lit up when he saw the bowl of braised pork in Wen Mingtang's hand. However, he probably thought of something, so he still swallowed, suppressed it, and turned Passing over the food box at hand, he urged Wen Mingtang, "Master Wen, hurry up! I can only come out for an hour. If I delay for a long time, I'm afraid I will be scolded if I go back."
Wen Mingtang watched the urging Shuangxi stand up, put the remaining bit of meat in the casserole into his food box and handed it over.
Watching Shuangxi hurriedly take the food box, turn around and run away. Seeing this kind of behavior, Wen Mingtang couldn't help but ask again: "What happened to the Pingxi County Prince's Mansion? Is it even possible for you and the little Prince to come out?"
Shuangxi pointed to his mouth, shook his head, indicating that he couldn't speak, and ran out of the door in a hurry.
Seeing Shuangxi disappearing in a hurry, Wen Mingtang didn't ask any more questions and just continued to sit down and eat.
The day after the clinker finished eating the braised pork, he heard the news about Li Yuan.
The first person to find out the news was naturally Liu Yuan, who was the best at asking for information.
"Master Wen!" When we found Wen Mingtang, Wen Mingtang, Ah Bing, and Tang Yuan were putting eggs into the large casserole pot for cooking braised pork.
When Liu Yuan, who originally wanted to say something, saw the big casserole, he instinctively suppressed the news he was about to say, and turned to ask Wen Mingtang: "Master Wen wants to boil eggs? Why boil so many eggs?" "
"Just make some snacks and share them with you as snacks after lunch." Wen Mingtang said.
Because Master Sun's lunch preparation was really unsatisfactory, everyone inevitably used less food during lunch and became hungry easily.
Ji Caimai sometimes cleans up the ingredients, fearing that they will spoil after being stored for a long time, so he will ask Wen Mingtang to cook them for everyone to eat as snacks.
Hearing that there were still snacks today, Liu Yuan swallowed subconsciously, moved his eyes away from the casserole that only contained shelled eggs and white water, and said to Wen Mingtang: "That little prince of Pingxi County who hasn't been here for a long time is here today. Something has happened already!"
When A Bing, who was putting eggs, heard this, he immediately corrected Liu Yuan and said: "Although the little prince didn't come, he sent his little follower. Yesterday, the follower came and took away the last bit of braised pork. Where’s the meat!”
When he mentioned the braised pork, Liu Yuan felt as if he could taste the sweet and salty sauce fragrance again on his lips and teeth, and muttered: "I originally wanted to say that it was really hateful that he took away the last bit of braised pork, but look at what he did this morning. He can be forgiven for what happened!"
oh? I don't know what the little prince did to make Liu Yuan even forgiven for "stealing meat".
Wen Mingtang couldn't help but laugh, and was about to speak when he heard Liu Yuan say: "The little prince sneaked out this morning with his little follower named Shuangxi. I heard that he was originally going to come to our Dali Temple public kitchen to have a meal. . What a coincidence, I bumped into King Yu on the way..."
After this collision, it was natural for enemies to meet and become extremely jealous! I don’t know who made the move first, or maybe they both didn’t like each other and wanted to take action. In short, the result was that the two of them started fighting in the street.
When Wen Mingtang heard this, he thought of the pomp of King Yu he saw on the day of the dragon boat race, and then thought of Li Yuan who always sneaked out with Shuangxi. To put it bluntly, Wen Mingtang felt that if he faced Li Yuantong and Shuangxi, he wouldn't be able to tell who would hit whom if he really made a move!
Can these two people defeat King Yu's men?
If he brought his subordinates, he would naturally not be able to defeat him, but for some reason, King Yu didn't even bring any of his subordinates this morning.
"Early in the morning, Prince Yu met the little prince of Pingxi when he was passing by Zhengyangfang alone." At this point, Liu Yuan couldn't help but gloated and smiled, "Although the little prince sneaked out secretly, , but he also brought a Double Happiness. Although it was of little use, there were still many people there. When he saw the disheveled King Yu, he immediately rushed forward with a Double Happiness!"
After all, it is rare to encounter King Yu who is alone. If you miss this opportunity once, you don't know when you will have to wait until next time.
"This little prince is quite like those good guys this morning who 'take action when it's time to take action'. He doesn't strike lightly at all, and he even hits the person in the face, beating them until their noses are bruised and swollen, which attracts a lot of people's attention. Watch!" When Liu Yuan said this, he couldn't hold back his laughter anymore, and couldn't help but laugh "haha", "This morning, everyone from the shops to various yamen, and even the court heard about this incident. !”
"Prince Yu is afraid that he will eat the little prince alive! However, Prince Pingxi has no ability to know the world, but his ability to avoid disasters and assess the situation is first-class. After receiving the news, he did not even hesitate. After hesitating for a moment, he immediately led someone to capture the guy and took his son back to Pingxi County Prince's Mansion, where he hid behind closed doors. When the people from Prince Yu's Mansion heard the news and rushed to the rescue, the father and son from Pingxi County Prince's Mansion had already disappeared. !”
Everyone ran away, and King Yu was naturally angry and had nowhere to vent his anger.
People like King Yu are inherently narrow-minded and stingy. Even though Li Yuantong and Shuangxi were beaten in secret, they probably wouldn't be able to swallow the bad breath. Now that he was being beaten in front of so many people, and it was on his face, thinking about how many people saw his bruised nose and face, it was probably even more uncomfortable than killing him!
Wen Mingtang laughed with Liu Yuan for a while, and after a moment of pause, he asked Liu Yuan: "Liu Sicheng, why did Prince Yu appear alone in Zhengyangfang so early in the morning? Moreover," the girl said this, her eyes slightly He flashed, "Still...looking disheveled?"
