Chapter 217 Preserved Egg and Lean Pork Porridge
"Those people in Dali Temple deal with extremely vicious people all the time. It's okay for you to think about Wen Xuance's daughter, but you don't want to get involved with them and get into trouble. Do you understand?" Repeating Wang He's words before leaving, Xunzhou Looking at Liu Yuan in front of him, the expression on his face was completely opposite to Wang He's warning.
Liu Yuan hesitated: "Your teacher told you not to get into trouble, which means not to have anything to do with us. In this case..."
In this case, they are afraid that they will have to find someone again.
But before Liu Yuan could finish his words, Xunzhou said excitedly: "I'm not causing trouble, I'm doing something righteous!"
Liu Yuan: "..."
I was originally hesitant to replace him, but since Mr. Xun is so righteous, then... let's not change him! Just don't let Wang He know about it.
"When will your master come back from this trip?" Liu Yuan asked Xunzhou after thinking about it.
Xunzhou said: "As little as half a month, as much as two to three months."
That's enough! Liu Yuan nodded, looked at Xunzhou in front of him, and said with a serious expression: "Then let's go there tomorrow morning. Starting earlier can solve this matter before the commander comes back!"
Naturally, Xunzhou would not refuse. He said "Oh" and thought for a while, but he did not forget to ask Liu Yuan: "Is it okay to go there to eat the morning meal?" As he said this, he did not forget to explain to Liu Yuan, "The teacher said that the morning meal is three The most important meal in your diet is nothing to be careless about!”
Liu Yuan: "..."
Thinking of Xunzhou, who is going to be a "poor scholar" tomorrow, if he pays more attention to every morning meal than others, he may be ruined in the blink of an eye!
This can't happen! Liu Yuan thought for a while, glanced at Xunzhou, and said, "I told Ji Caimai and the others that you can come and have a meal in the morning. After you eat the meal, hurry over and don't wander around outside again!"
Xunzhou nodded in agreement: "That's fine!" You can also visit Sister Mingtang when you come here every morning! As for eating the morning meal, that's just incidental.
Seeing that Xunzhou was still thinking about paying attention to the court food, Liu Yuan was a little worried. He looked up and down the well-dressed Xunzhou again. Seeing that he couldn't find anything wrong with him, he did not forget to tell him: "Mr. Remember, you are now a poor scholar selling calligraphy and painting, a man who is greedy for money and unjust, so you must remember to put away that gentlemanly behavior!"
When Xunzhou heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Don't worry!"
Seeing Xunzhou's excited expression, Liu Yuan couldn't help but frown again: It's strange that you can rest assured!
But... that's all, he only needs to fish people out, and he doesn't need to do the rest.
…
…
The Double Ninth Festival, which did not have a strong festive atmosphere, passed like this!
Since he had just eaten Double Ninth Cake yesterday, Wen Mingtang did not make any pastries for the first meal of the festival, but simply cooked a pot of porridge.
After late autumn, the sky becomes brighter and later. When the bell rang, before it was completely dark, an unexpected face appeared at the door of the Dali Temple's public kitchen.
"Sister Mingtang?" Xunzhou, who was the first to come in for the morning meal, went straight to the stage to say hello to Wen Mingtang, and then lowered his voice and said, "I'll eat the morning meal and then come over!"
Wen Mingtang glanced at Xunzhou, who was wearing a simple cloth robe, handed over the food in his hand, and said, "Be careful!"
Xunzhou nodded and immediately said: "Sister Mingtang, don't worry!"
Wen Mingtang said "Hmm" and glanced at the few servants who walked in from the door of the public kitchen, also wearing cloth robes and dressing up as ordinary people: It's really reassuring to have them here!
After looking at Wen Mingtang on the other side and sitting down at the food table, Xunzhou lowered his head and looked at the porridge he received in his hand.
Because I only eat a large bowl of porridge in the morning, this porridge is naturally much thicker than the usual porridge soup.
Although it is porridge, it is different from the porridge made from ordinary white rice. At first glance, in addition to the rice grains that have been boiled until they bloom, there are also an amazing variety of side dishes.
Pink shredded pork meat, dark-colored preserved eggs, and the porridge base cooked until dense and sticky are mixed with each other, and green green onions are embellished in between.
The four colors of pink, ink, white and green are intertwined with each other. It is pleasing to the eyes and arouses an inexplicable appetite at the same time.
When a guard was receiving the meal, he curiously asked about the name of the recent meal. Wen Mingtang handed a large bowl of thick porridge that was visible to the naked eye to the guard and said: "Preserved egg and lean meat porridge!"
Lean meat is as the name suggests, but this dark-colored preserved egg is something Xunzhou has never seen before.
Just as he was curious, the guards had already walked up to Xunzhou and sat down with the morning food.
One of them picked up a spoon and took a spoonful of the sticky preserved egg and lean meat porridge. He blew it slightly and put it into his mouth. A particularly pleasant look appeared on his back. When he noticed that Xun When Zhou was looking at himself, the guard said hurriedly: "Mr. Xun, what do you think I'm doing? Eat quickly!" As he said that, he took another spoonful of the preserved egg and lean meat porridge in the bowl. When he saw the dark colored preserved egg in the spoon, , but he remembered something, raised his head and said to Xunzhou who had not yet touched the spoon: "Is it because you have never seen this thing called preserved egg, so you don't dare to eat it? Don't worry, this thing is very delicious!" After that, he spoke again Spoon.
"That's not true," Xunzhou heard this, quickly picked up the spoon, glanced at Wen Mingtang who was scooping porridge seriously, and said, "Sister Mingtang made it, so of course I'm not afraid of it, I'm just a little curious!"
As he said that, he scooped a spoonful of the porridge in the bowl, blew it a little, and tasted the pure white porridge base first: looking at the grains of rice that had bloomed, you could already guess the texture of the porridge base. The mouth is really dense, and the rice grains can be completely crushed with a sip of the tip of the tongue. Although this spoonful is full of crystal white rice grains, the long-term cooking of the shredded pork meat and preserved eggs has already reduced the taste. The unique flavor of pork meat and preserved eggs are blended into the porridge base, so even a spoonful of the porridge base is extremely delicious.
Although the flavor of the preserved eggs is unique, it is unexpectedly not unpleasant. Instead, it tastes inexplicably addictive. The brown and transparent egg skin was elastic, but the egg core inside was soft and runny, completely different from the egg yolks he had eaten before.
The pink shredded pork is tender and delicious, and the umami flavor of the preserved egg is really addictive.
The first few spoonfuls he scooped were quite reserved. After he thoroughly tasted the deliciousness of the preserved egg and lean meat porridge, Xunzhou was like one of the servants, scooping up the rice grains and pork shreds one after another. Send the preserved eggs to big mouths.
Unknowingly, when the last spoonful was empty, Xunzhou realized that he had eaten up the entire bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge in front of him.
Originally, he just wanted to visit Sister Mingtang and eat the morning food. But tasting the tempting umami taste in his mouth, Xunzhou suddenly felt that what the teacher said was right. Eating the morning food was really important, so he endured it. I kept asking the guards across the street: "Can I still come for breakfast tomorrow?"
It’s cold and I just want to stay at home and hibernate 0,0
