Chapter 144: Braised pork (4)

  Chapter 144 Braised Pork (4)

Because of the long stewing, the fat meat melts almost as soon as it is eaten, and the lean meat is already soft and rotten. The rich and sticky salty aroma of the sauce has a hint of sweetness, sweet but not greasy, but more fresh sweet.

   Watching Liu Yuan put the braised pork into his belly, he couldn't wait to scoop up a spoonful of the thick sauce and cover it on the white rice.

Most people’s tongues can sometimes learn how to eat without a teacher. Rice wrapped in such a thick oily red sauce can be called a real weapon for eating. There are also rice with braised pork sauce like him. Quite a few, and what I saw was that Wen Mingtang, who was in charge of dividing the dishes, grunted twice in his stomach, indicating that he wanted to eat.

  However, as a qualified cook, he still endured it. Sitting behind the table, Wen Mingtang couldn't help pursing his lips and smiling at the people who were eating at the food table.

  People say that the greatest compliment to a cook is to eat every grain of the meal she cooks, and eat it all. She has 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 evening meal. When the rich and mellow sauce aroma of braised pork was between the lips and teeth, Double Happiness, which 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, but he probably thought of something, so he swallowed, held back, and turned to Handing over the food box at hand, he urged Wen Mingtang, "Master Wen, hurry up! I can only come out for an hour. It's been a long delay, and I'm afraid I'll be scolded if I go back."

  Wen Mingtang watched the urging Shuangxi get up, put the little bit of meat left in the casserole into his food box and handed it over.

   Watching Shuangxi hurriedly take the food box, she turned and ran. Seeing such behavior, Wen Mingtang couldn't help asking again: "What happened to the Prince's Mansion of Pingxi County? Even if you and the Prince of the Little County come out, it won't work?"

  Shuangxi pointed to her mouth, shook her head, signaled that she could not speak, and ran out the door in a hurry.

   Seeing Shuangxi who disappeared 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 from Li Yuan.

  The first to inquire about the news was naturally Liu Yuan who was the best at inquiring about the news.

   "Master Wen!" When Wen Mingtang was found, Wen Mingtang, A Bing, and Tangyuan were putting eggs into the big casserole pot for cooking braised pork.

When Liu Yuan, who was about to tell the news, saw the big casserole, he instinctively suppressed the news he was about to say, and asked Wen Mingtang instead: "Master Wen wants to boil eggs? Why boil so many eggs? "

   "Make some snacks casually, and share them with you as snacks after lunch." Wen Mingtang said.

  Because Master Sun's lunch was not satisfactory, everyone used less for lunch, and they were prone to hunger.

   Ji Caimai sometimes cleans up the ingredients, fearing that they will be spoiled after a long time, so Wen Mingtang will make them for everyone to eat as snacks.

Hearing that there are still snacks today, Liu Yuan swallowed subconsciously, looked away from the casserole with shell eggs and white water, and said to Wen Mingtang: "That little Pingxi county king who hasn't been here for a long time is here today. Something has happened early!"

A Bing, who was laying eggs, heard this, and immediately corrected Liu Yuan's words, saying: "Although the little county king didn't come, he was able to send his little servant. The servant came yesterday to take away the last bit of braised pork Where's the meat!"

When talking about the braised pork, Liu Yuan felt as if he tasted the sweet and salty sauce again, and muttered, "I wanted to say that he took away the last bit of braised pork, but it's really hateful to see him making it this morning." You can forgive him for that!"

oh? I don't know what that little county king did to make Liu Yuan even forgive him for "stealing meat".

Wen Mingtang couldn't help laughing, and was about to speak, when he heard Liu Yuan say, "The little county king sneaked out with his little follower named Shuangxi this morning, and I heard that he was going to come to our Dali Temple's public kitchen to eat court food." It turned out to be a coincidence that I bumped into King Yu on the way..."

   This collision is naturally a meeting of enemies, and they are extremely jealous! I don't know which one made the first move, or maybe the two of them saw each other's displeasure and wanted to fight. In short, the result was that the two fought in the street.

  When Wen Mingtang heard this, he thought of the scene 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 really fought against Li Yuan and Shuangxi, he couldn't tell who would hit whom!

  Can these two beat King Yu's subordinates?

  If he brought his subordinates, he would naturally be unable to defeat him, but for some reason, King Yu didn't even bring a single subordinate this morning.

"Early in the morning, King Yu met the little county king of Pingxi when he passed by Zhengyangfang alone." Speaking of this, Liu Yuan couldn't help holding back a gloating smile, and said, "Although the little county king sneaked out , but also brought a double happiness, although it is not very useful, but after all, there are many people, and when he ran into the disheveled Yu Wang, he rushed up with his double happiness!"

   After all, it is rare for King Yu to place an order. I missed this opportunity once, but I don’t know when I will wait for the next time.

"This little king of the county has the demeanor of those good guys who 'make a move when it's time to do it' this morning. He doesn't attack lightly at all, and he even greets his face, hitting people with bruised noses and swollen faces, which has attracted many people's attention. Onlookers!" Liu Yuan couldn't hold back his laughter when he said this, and couldn't help laughing "haha", "In the early morning, from the workshops to the yamen of various ministries, and even the court halls, it was rumored !"

"King Yu probably swallowed the little king's heart alive! But the king of Pingxi is not capable at all, but his eyesight for avoiding disasters and judging the situation is first-class. After receiving the news, he didn't even hesitate. After hesitating for a moment, he immediately took someone to copy the guy and took his son back to Pingxi County Palace to hide behind closed doors. When the people from Yu Palace heard the news and came to the savior, the father and son in Pingxi County Palace disappeared early !"

  Everyone ran away, so King Yu was naturally so angry that he had nowhere to go.

  People like King Yu are narrow-minded and stingy. Even if Li Yuan and Shuangxi beat him up in secret, they probably couldn't swallow the bad breath. Now he was beaten in front of so many people, and his face was still beaten. Thinking of how many people saw his bruised nose and swollen face, it would be worse than killing him!

Wen Mingtang smiled with Liu Yuan for a while, and after a pause, he asked Liu Yuan: "Liu Sicheng, why did King Yu appear in Zhengyangfang alone in the early morning? And," the girl said here, her eyes slightly Blinking, "Still... in disheveled clothes?"
