Chapter 119 Spicy Rabbit Head (Updated with two chapters combined)

This Lotus Mountain is full of trees, lush grass and water, and has beautiful scenery.

After walking for a while, they found their prey.

It's a cute little rabbit.

Ye Shuyi picked up a sharp stone and threw it lightly. The stone hit the hare like a dart.

Ye Shuyi was very happy after winning the first battle.

She took a few steps forward and quickly got the rabbit. She happily showed it to Chen Nanfeng: "See? Am I awesome?"

The man nodded: "Master Dart."

Ye Shuyi put it into the bamboo basket on her back.

Soon after, they saw a tit.

It is gray, has plump feathers, and looks delicious.

Ye Shuyi approached cautiously, but accidentally stepped on a dead leaf on the ground, making a noise.

The tit flew away.

"Oh, what a pity." Ye Shuyi thought to herself, it is indeed difficult to catch a flying bird.

"Don't be discouraged." Chen Nanfeng advised.

Then he found a branch from somewhere and tied a spring to it.

Just put a small stone and pull it gently, the stone will flash in the direction of aiming, and with a bird's cry, the wild bird on the branch will be knocked down.

Ye Shuyi hurried to look at it and picked it up.

"good."

"Of course, at least they've all been trained in the police academy."

After searching for a long time, they caught another wild boar.

People should learn to be content. They stopped moving forward and went back home.

Along the way, Ye Shuyi had already thought of the ingredients to order.

Wild boar, of course, must be made into roast suckling pig.

Tit, you can add tonic ingredients to make soup.

There are only little rabbits, and braised rabbit heads are perfect.

When I came back, I saw another river. The water was clear and there were fish swimming in the water, looking fresh and lively.

Since I brought a fishing rod, I naturally cannot waste it.

Ye Shuyi used bait, hooked the fish and put it into the river.

After a while, the fish was hooked. It was a big fish, which looked to weigh more than three pounds.

"I'm really lucky this time!" Ye Shuyi smiled with satisfaction.

The fish's tail was swaying and its body was slippery. Ye Shuyi finally caught it.

This fish, steamed, is extremely fresh!

Fill a plastic bag with water, put the fish in it, and then you can carry it around the villa.

Just as she put the bag away and was about to leave, she stopped again.

The air was filled with a rich aroma of meat, which was extremely delicious.

"Chen Nanfeng, can you smell it? It smells so good!" Ye Shuyi sniffed hard.

"Hmm, I smell it. It seems to be the smell of barbecued wild game."

Ye Shuyi was puzzled. Is there anyone barbecuing in this deep forest?

Like them, hunt and eat?

Ye Shuyi thought for a moment and asked, "Would you like to go with me to find the person who is grilling right now?"

"Since you want to, I will naturally accompany you." Chen Nanfeng replied.

In this way, the two of them sniffed all the way and walked for about a kilometer before they saw a house in front of them.

The house is not of modern architectural style, but a wooden cabin with a stove at the door and a wire mesh on top.

Unknown meat is being grilled, sizzling with oil, and looks very delicious.

Ye Shuyi walked forward and asked, "Is anyone there?"

I saw a man walking out of the house, wearing casual, loose clothes.

"What's the matter?" he asked lazily.

When Ye Shuyi took a look, she felt that the man looked very familiar.

It seems to be...Xie Liuhua!

He is the legendary chef who has won several food competitions and is now retired with his wife.

"Mr. Xie!" Ye Shuyi asked in surprise.

I didn't expect to meet him here.

"Ms. Ye?" They had met twice.

Xie Liuhua had an impression of her.

The two thought it was such a coincidence and were very surprised.

Without saying much, Xie Liuhua warmly welcomed them into the house.

"My humble abode is simple, please make do with it." He poured two cups of tea and placed them in front of them.

"It's okay." Ye Shuyi said.

Xie Liuhua turned to look at Chen Nanfeng and asked, "Is this Young Master Chen?"

"We just met yesterday, Mr. Xie." Chen Nanfeng said with a smile.

"That's right, look at my memory." He slapped his head.

Yesterday, Chen Nanfeng hired him to be a judge at the charity cooking competition.

"Why are you here?" He lived in such a remote place that ordinary people could not find him.

Ye Shuyi told him the reason.

Last night, I watched the meteor shower at a villa nearby. Today, I heard that there were prey nearby, so I went to take a look.

Unexpectedly, when he was about to go back, he was smelling the meat roasted by Xie Liuhua, so he came over following the scent.

"Mr. Xie's barbecue skills are truly extraordinary." Ye Shuyi's words were both a compliment and a sincere praise.

Xie Liuhua had long been accustomed to these words, and simply smiled faintly and said, "You're not bad either."

As we were chatting, a woman came out of the room. She was wearing a purple dress, her hair was casually draped, and her face looked very young.

This is Mrs. Xie.

As soon as she came out, she complained angrily, "Xie Liuhua, you are so mean! You didn't even tell me that a guest was coming. How rude!"

After saying that, she went into the inner room and brought out some fruits and cakes and placed them on the table.

She smiled and said, "Eat as much as you want. You're welcome! What Old Xie cooks is delicious. You're in for a treat."

"Thank you, sister!" Ye Shuyi said sweetly.

"Thank you." Chen Nanfeng nodded slightly.

Just as Xie Liuhua was about to introduce them, the woman spoke up, "I know! This is Miss Ye, the beautiful and kind-hearted culinary expert, and this is Mr. Chen, the handsome, wealthy, kind, and generous man."

Then she introduced herself: "You should be able to guess, I am Lao Xie's wife, you can call me whatever you want."

"Okay, sister."

"Eh~" She was very satisfied with this name. She was in her thirties, and in her eyes Ye Shuyi was just a little sister.

"When you come here, you must try Lao Xie's roast goat. I guarantee you'll be satisfied!" she invited enthusiastically. "Why don't you stay for dinner? I'll cook!"

Ye Shuyi readily agreed, as she was just wanting to try Xie Liuhua's cooking.

It felt a bit embarrassing to stay and eat for free, so Ye Shuyi suggested that the wild boar be left and part of it could be roasted.

"Oh, this wild boar is very fierce. It takes me one or two months to kill one. You guys should keep it!" Xie Liuhua refused.

With such good materials, let Ye Shuyi make it herself!

As a fellow cook, Xie Liuhua felt that Ye Shuyi would definitely want to try it herself.

Seeing his refusal, Ye Shuyi was not surprised and said, "Then you should keep the fish and the hare! They are much easier to catch than wild boars. If you don't agree, I will be embarrassed to eat here."

Xie Liuhua took a look and said, "Okay!"

It was around four o'clock now. Xie Liuhua took over the fish and hare and quickly made a spicy rabbit head (the rest was stewed) and red date and wolfberry fish soup.

Dinner starts at 5:30 sharp.

The chef is different. Top-quality ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods.

The roasted lamb is crispy and charred, yet tender and juicy on the inside; the fish soup is milky white and thick, warm and sweet; the spicy rabbit head is warm and stimulating, with an endless aftertaste.

Ye Shuyi's eyes lit up as she ate the food; she loved the taste so much.

Even Chen Nanfeng, who is always picky, ate with gusto.

It seems that once a chef's skills reach a certain level, the so-called picky eating habits will quietly disappear.

Chen Nanfeng ate two bowls of rice and even shocked himself.

The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.

After eating, it was getting late, so Chen Nanfeng and Ye Shuyi said goodbye to them and told them that the villa was not far away.

If you have time, you can go and play.

Xie Liuhua and Mrs. Xie agreed readily.

When they arrived at the villa, Ye Shuyi processed the wild boar and put it in the refrigerator.

In fact, wild boar tastes better when roasted fresh, but they are all full now and don’t have the energy to do that.

Let’s talk about it tomorrow.

In this way, Ye Shuyi stayed in the villa for another night.

It was her first time here, but there were all kinds of daily necessities for women.

Ye Shuyi couldn't help but wonder if there were other girls staying here before. Was she the first one to come?

When Chen Nanfeng heard her question, he cried out in injustice: "Look at these tooth cups, toothbrushes, slippers, and clothes. Which one is not new? Don't doubt me."

"You're not short of money, so maybe you can sell them first and buy the new ones. Look, it's so complete." Ye Shuyi wasn't so thoughtful even when she prepared it herself.

From small items like skin care products, toothpaste and toothbrushes to large items like dressing tables and dressing rooms.

It's so thoughtful.

"No, I asked Auntie to prepare all this." Chen Nanfeng said helplessly, "If you don't believe me, I can swear. If I, Chen Nanfeng, lie to Ye Shuyi..."

Before he could finish, Ye Shuyi said, "Okay, okay, don't swear. I believe you."

Even if another woman really came, she didn't want Chen Nanfeng's safety to be in jeopardy.

She would be very sad.

Skipping this topic, she became worried again: "I've just disappeared for two days, will anything happen in the store?"

"Don't worry, I've already sent Shi Feng to talk to them."

That’s good. Ye Shuyi was still thinking about whether she should call and tell them.

Wait a minute, send Shi Feng to tell him?

"You..." Ye Shuyi thought of something not so good.

"What's wrong?"

"Why are you sending Shi Feng to tell them? Will they misunderstand something?"

If this gets out, how will she face these employees?

Chen Nanfeng said, "It's okay. They don't know you're staying here at night. They probably just think you're going out to play with me during the day."

"……All right."

I feel like they still have some wrong ideas.

Forget it, let it be. Anyway, the man in front of her has admitted in front of so many people that he is pursuing her.

Besides, she is an adult and there is nothing she can't do.

Thinking of this, Ye Shuyi felt better.

She stopped thinking about it and went to sleep, waking up naturally at nine o'clock.

In fact, my biological clock woke up at six o'clock, but I took a nap.

So the roast suckling pig is scheduled for noon.

The pig was deboned and gutted last night and marinated with various ingredients.

Today, just take it out and let it thaw slightly (actually it doesn’t freeze, it just needs to return to normal temperature).

Marinated overnight, very tasty.

The epithelial water is prepared by mixing maltose, red and white vinegar, and brushed on the pig skin to increase crispness and color, and then air-dried for an hour.

Grilled over charcoal fire, it retains its original flavor and wild charm.

The oil is baked at high temperature and the skin is golden and crispy.

Turn over over medium heat and apply oil to prevent cracking.

Roast the pig skin at high temperature again until it turns bright red with crispy little bubbles.

"Is it cooked?" Chen Nanfeng looked at Ye Shuyi admiringly from the side.

This roast suckling pig is so appetizing!

Ye Shuyi decided to give him a sense of participation.

"Here, poke it in and see if it goes in smoothly."

Chen Nanfeng followed his instructions and stabbed it into the pig's leg, where the skin and flesh were thickest.

If it pierces easily, it's cooked.

"Okay, let's get ready to eat!" Seeing that it was cooked, Ye Shuyi lifted the suckling pig up and placed it on a huge, clean chopping board.

It's so big, I need to cut it into several pieces.

Ye Shuyi first cut it into two portions, and then divided one of them into more than ten small portions, so that the aunts could taste her cooking skills.

Then, he cut one-tenth of the remaining portion into pieces and asked Chen Nanfeng to try it.

"Is it delicious?" Ye Shuyi asked expectantly.

It’s not like she hadn’t roasted suckling pig before, but she had never tried roasting wild boar before.

In theory, when making suckling pig, the pig should not be too old, the meat will be tender and easy to roast.

But Ye Shuyi believes that the roasted wild boar meat is firmer and fuller, not soft and mushy, and has a unique flavor.

Chen Nanfeng almost knelt down because of the delicious food.

The fat is fragrant but not greasy, sweet and slightly burnt, the meat is rich in aroma and juicy.

It’s even better than the roast lamb we had yesterday. It’s wonderful.

Chen Nanfeng's eyes were bright, and he felt excited and satisfied.

"I don't know how to describe it. I feel like there are no words that can describe the deliciousness."

"Okay, let's eat quickly!" Ye Shuyi said happily.

Just like that, one, two, three.

The aunts were also amazed after eating the roast suckling pig.

This meat should only exist in heaven, how many times can one hear of it in the world?

Today I will eat some meat grilled by you, and it will taste like the taste of heaven.

They felt that nothing they had eaten before was as good as the meat in front of them.

His cooking skills, which he was proud of, were nothing compared to Ye Shuyi's.

A few of the aunts asked embarrassedly if they could give them a little more.

Just a little.

Chen Nanfeng held the chopsticks tightly.

He is not a stingy person, but... he is a little reluctant!

Ye Shuyi didn't care. The pig was big enough to share.

During the Qingming Festival, when they pay respects to their ancestors, sometimes the whole village carries one or two wild boars to meet their ancestors.

After the worship, "Taigong distributes pork and everyone has a share."

During the Dragon Boat Festival dragon boat race, they would row for their lives for the suckling pig (a symbol of honor).

Ye Shuyi would give more to anyone who asked for it.

After giving it to him, he saw Chen Nanfeng’s nervous face.

It makes people laugh.

"Hey! You won't feel sorry for the pork, will you?" Ye Shuyi said with a smile.

You are the CEO!

Chen Nanfeng really cared about it, but he couldn't lose face, so he said hypocritically: "How could I care?"

He was thinking, don’t share it all, leave some for me! He really wants to eat it for the next meal!

Ye Shuyi guessed what he was thinking and thought it was adorable.

There was no one else here, so Ye Shuyi asked.

She sat down to eat.

"Don't worry, there's a share for you!" Ye Shuyi picked up a big piece of roast suckling pig and gave it to him.

"Uh-huh!"

"Although this suckling pig is not greasy at all now, it is meat after all. It will be a bit greasy if you eat too much. I prepared some black tea to relieve the greasiness." Ye Shuyi said.

"Oh, okay."

Whatever she says goes, black tea must be delicious.

After the meal, there were just a few servings of suckling pig left, enough for her and Chen Nanfeng.

"Master, you wouldn't mind eating leftover food, would you?"
