Chapter 83 Not quite the same as expected
"Cousin, could it be that you discovered me because I took a peek outside?"
"you guess?"
"Cousin, you..." Lu Wenjing stamped her feet. "Cousin always pretends to be mysterious like this. It's so abominable!"
Su Yujin had quietly prepared hot tea, and placed new chopsticks and bowls on the table. "My cousin, you probably haven't had dinner yet. It's freezing outside. My cousin, please drink some red date ginger tea to warm yourself up, and then have some lamb rib hotpot."
Lu Wenjing sat down without any hesitation, and drank the red date and ginger tea in one gulp, then raised her eyes and slapped Su Yujin in the face.
She has a dignified and beautiful face, with excellent facial features, especially her eyes, which are like the bright stars in the night, or like the bottomless lake, quite attractive. She has a generous temperament, and her manners are quite proper and polite.
Lu Wenjing blinked her eyes. "She is beautiful, but she is not quite the same as I imagined."
"What's the difference?" He Yanxiu squinted his eyes.
"She is an oiran and a concubine arranged by my cousin. Naturally, she looks like a vixen, with a face and eyes full of tenderness. She looks like she wants to break other people's bones when she speaks."
Lu Wenjing thought for a moment and said, "Or maybe she's the kind of pitiful one, with a pair of eyes full of autumn water, looking like a little white flower drifting in the wind and rain."
No matter what, Su Yujin in front of him shouldn't be like this.
Neither of these, but there is a bit of...
The dignified appearance of the principal wife.
He Yanxiu paused.
Su Yujin indeed had neither of these two.
To be exact, there is none at all now.
When he first met Su Yujin in Wanhua Tower, she was just like any other prostitute, with a charming and fawning face.
Come to think of it, it seemed that when I passed by Qinghe in May last year and saw Su Yujin again, she had changed.
A serious illness can change a person's temperament.
"Does my cousin like this look?" Lu Wenjing tilted her head, looking puzzled.
Isn't this what a lady from the capital should look like? But why is it that when so many people come to propose marriage, my cousin doesn't care about any of them? "You're too talkative."
He Yanxiu glanced at her, and then instructed Su Yujin who was standing next to her, "You should sit down and continue eating. She is just my eldest uncle's little cousin Lu Wenjing, so she is not considered an outsider."
Second Master spoke, and Su Yujin did not hesitate, "Yes, Second Master."
He sat down and continued to take out some vegetables from the lamb rib pot.
He also used a serving chopstick to help Lu Wenjing scoop up a few pieces of spine bones with meat on them and placed them in the bowl in front of her.
"My cousin is very kind to her."
Let her eat at the same table.
When speaking, his attitude was quite gentle.
Lu Wenjing's eyes kept turning to Su Yujin.
"Try this lamb ribs, it tastes good." He Yanxiu said, "It was cooked by Miss Su herself. It's rare to find it in the whole capital."
Lu Wenjing curled her lips.
The capital city is the most prosperous place in the world, and the food there is naturally the best in the world.
Not to mention those famous restaurants, even in her own kitchen, there are chefs and cooks who specialize in all kinds of flavors, and the banquets they prepare are praised by everyone. Su Yujin is just an oiran, and even if she knows a few signature dishes, they are just to please people.
It's so delicious that it's hard to find even in Beijing.
And the name of Yang Xiezi...
It sounds weird.
Lu Wenjing didn't really want to eat it, but since He Yanxiu said so, she could only give him some face and picked up a piece of bone with meat on it and put it in her mouth.
The texture is soft and melts in your mouth. As the meat melts, a rich flavor gradually spreads on the tip of your tongue.
The spicy and fragrant taste jumps on the tongue and bursts in the mouth instantly, filling the whole mouth and rushing to the forehead. I just feel that the taste of the lamb ribs is wonderful.
Moreover, this delicacy is fierce, rough and strong, and tastes much more satisfying than the meals cooked by the cooks at home.
Lu Wenjing was originally a straightforward person. When she ate the equally straightforward lamb rib hotpot, she just felt that she couldn't be too comfortable.
After swallowing several pieces of meat in succession, Lu Wenjing couldn't help but nod repeatedly, "It tastes really good, just as my cousin said, it's really rare to eat it in the capital."
At least in the restaurants that Lu Wenjing knew, she had never eaten anything as delicious as this.
Looking at Su Yujin putting lotus root slices into the pot, Lu Wenjing couldn't help but ask, "Did you really make this?"
"That's exactly what I made." Su Yujin scooped out a piece of frozen tofu and yuba for Lu Wenjing, "Thank you, Miss Lu, for not disliking my cooking skills. Please try these. I also made some pulled noodles. If you cook them and eat them, they will taste great."
After tasting the frozen tofu and yuba, Lu Wenjing said, "Don't cook them later, just cook them now."
After riding a horse all the way from the capital, jumping through so many courtyards in Qinghe County, and suffering from the cold for a long time, Lu Wenjing was now starving and wished she could eat the whole pot of lamb ribs.
Upon hearing this, Su Yujin went to get the noodles.
After the kneaded dough has been rested long enough, gently stretch the wide dough piece a little bit longer and thinner. When the noodles are as wide as a finger, put them into a boiling casserole.
Looking at the white pulled noodles tumbling in the rich, bright soup in the pot, Lu Wenjing couldn't help licking her lips.
From time to time, stir the pot with chopsticks.
He kept asking, "Is it cooked?"
"Miss Lu, you have to wait a moment."
“Can I eat now?”
"not yet."
"I think it's almost done. How about I try it?" Lu Wenjing didn't even wait for Su Yujin to dissuade her. She had already taken one out and put it in the bowl. She didn't even care about the heat and ate it with a slurp.
After a noodle went into her stomach, Lu Wenjing smacked her lips and said, "I ate it a little too fast just now. I couldn't tell whether it was cooked or not. I'll try another one..."
Su Yujin, "..."
Most of the plate of pulled noodles prepared by Su Yujin went into Lu Wenjing's stomach.
Lu Wenjing was also very satisfied with the meal and nodded repeatedly, "Not bad, Miss Su's cooking skills are really good..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Wenjing let out a loud and long burp.
Comfortable!
I haven’t eaten so full in a long time!
Lu Wenjing squinted her eyes in satisfaction and even wanted to find a toothpick to pick her teeth.
"Now that you're full, let's go back." He Yanxiu took a sip of the osmanthus tea brewed by Su Yujin.
Lu Wenjing jumped up from the stool, with her hands on her hips, "My dear cousin, you are so cruel. It's freezing outside, are you willing to let me travel alone?"
