Chapter 279 Why Give Him This?
Shen Zhaonian, who was in the Ministry of Revenue, was also eating his lunch with relish, just like Shen Keting and Jiang Cheng.
He picked up a chicken drumstick with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
During the stewing process, the teriyaki sauce has completely penetrated into every inch of the chicken, blending with the tender meat.
The texture of the chicken thigh is silky, soft and tasty.
As you chew, you’ll feel tender, smooth, fresh, salty, sweet, fragrant...all kinds of different tastes come to you one after another.
The delicious aftertaste lingers in the mouth for a long time. It is really delicious.
Shen Zhaonian ate the teriyaki chicken thighs in big mouthfuls, taking a few mouthfuls of rice from time to time, and then having a piece of lettuce or scrambled eggs with tomatoes. It was really comfortable.
Several officials from the Ministry of Revenue standing nearby also ate the teriyaki chicken legs that Chen Zhaonian had distributed to them with great care. Each of them picked up a chicken leg with chopsticks and tasted it with great care.
In stark contrast to Shen Zhaonian's voracious eating, they were reluctant to eat in big mouthfuls, fearing that they would finish it all in one go.
Freshness, sweetness, saltiness, fragrance and the smoothness of the chicken blend well together to form a wonderful taste that penetrates the tip of the tongue little by little, dancing with cheerful notes on the taste buds.
Not only are the teriyaki chicken legs delicious, but even the rice that has been dipped in the sauce has that delicious flavor.
Not to mention the chicken legs, even if they were only given a dish of sauce to mix with the rice, they would be able to eat two more bowls.
The officials of the Ministry of Revenue ate chicken legs and sighed in their hearts.
In the past, they always thought that as long as the food business under the name of County Lady Yinghua was opened, they would no longer have to envy Lord Shen’s food, nor would they have to shamelessly eat at him.
Later I realized that they were still too naive.
Although Yipintang and the Food Court are now open, the food there is also delicious.
But even so, those foods are still incomparable to the meals that Lord Shen brings every day.
Of the meals that Lord Shen brings every day, at least six or seven out of ten are new dishes that Princess Yinghua has just developed.
Every time I open the food box, the house is filled with fragrance, and they are all foods that are not sold in Yipintang and the food court yet.
Even gods wouldn't be able to resist smelling that scent.
Moreover, every time I tasted the food made by County Master Yinghua, I always felt a sense of happiness in my heart.
In order to taste the freshly-baked delicacies prepared by Lady Yinghua, they had to put aside their pride.
Although it’s not nice to eat and drink for free with a thick face, those delicacies are really delicious.
No matter how big the matter is, we have to wait until we finish eating.

Inside the Imperial College cafeteria, students were gathering in groups of three or four, having lunch and arguing in low voices.
Shen Kesi and his companions also brought their meals and sat down in the empty seats.
Today's lunch in the cafeteria is sliced noodles with minced meat and green beans. The noodles are pointed at both ends and wide in the middle, shaped like a willow leaf, which requires extremely high knife skills from the chef.
The noodles are intertwined and topped with a layer of minced meat and beans.
The sauce is brown-red, and even the beans are dyed different color, which is very tempting just by looking at it.
The rich aroma of sauce and noodles entered everyone's nostrils along with the steaming food.
Shen Keheng couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks: "This knife-cut noodles smells so good, it looks delicious at first glance."
The other three people also looked at the knife-cut noodles in their bowls, picked up their chopsticks, and started eating.
The sliced noodles are smooth, elastic and chewy. Mixed with the salty and fresh, sticky but not greasy sauce,
The sliced noodles are coated with sauce, and the noodles are smooth, fragrant and chewy.
Served with the salty yet fresh, sticky but not greasy sauce, the more you chew it, the more delicious it becomes and the more satisfying it becomes.
Each noodle is chewy and elastic, and when you chew it, it feels like it is dancing on the tip of your tongue.
Shen Keheng's eyes lit up. These sliced noodles were really delicious.
Not only are the noodles smooth on the outside and chewy on the inside, but even the minced beans and meat are very fragrant.
The beans are cooked to be extremely fragrant and glutinous. The freshness of the beans and the aroma of the minced meat blend together. It is oily but not greasy, and has rich taste layers.
Take a bite, and the fresh aroma with oil instantly melts in your mouth and lingers on the tip of your nose, making you linger.
Shen Kesi and the other three ate their noodles in silence.
Shen Keheng ate the fastest. Before long, the big bowl of knife-cut noodles was finished, and there was not even any soup left.
He put down his chopsticks comfortably and was about to take out the bamboo tube to drink some tea.
Wei Zeduo, who was sitting at the next table, suddenly stuffed something over and said, "Zhongyu, this is for you."
Shen Keheng was stunned and took it subconsciously.
He looked closely and found that it was a book.
Shen Keheng looked at Wei Zeduo, and before he could speak, Wei Zeduo stood up.
"I have a class soon, so I'll give this notebook to you two brothers."
After saying that, Wei Zeduo stood up and walked out of the cafeteria with the student beside him.
Shen Keheng looked at Wei Zeduo's departing figure, then looked at the script in his hand, his mind full of question marks.
Why did Wei Zeduo give him this storybook?
Shen Keheng was about to say something, but the notebook in his hand was taken away by Shen Kesi.
Chen Kesi looked at the title of the book on the storybook: "Folk Strange Stories - Wooden Box for Making Wishes, why did he give us this?"
He also heard what Wei Zeduo said just now. Wei Zeduo said "a gift for you two brothers", which means that this notebook was also a gift for him.
But, why did Wei Zeduo give this?
Shen Keheng shook his head: "I don't know. I just wanted to ask, but he left."
Actually, this is not a big problem. It’s not like I won’t be able to see Wei Zeduo anymore.
Everyone lived in the capital and came to the Imperial College every day.
If you didn’t ask this time, you can just ask next time.
Xue Cong also looked at the title of the book at the top: "Maybe the answer is in this storybook."
Although he had never read the storybook, he always felt that the name was related to the recent rumors.
Song Ye also said: "Brother Xue is right. Perhaps after reading this storybook, my second and third cousins will understand Wei Jiansheng's intentions."
Shen Kesi lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something, and did not speak.
Shen Keheng thought for a while and said, "It does make sense. Let's take a look at it when we have time."
Wei Zeduo is really something. He knew that the monthly exam was coming soon, but he still sent him a notebook at this time.
Doesn't this affect his study?
Even if you give him a gift, can't you give him something that he is interested in? ?
He didn't really like this kind of folk records.
