Mingyan never expected that he would have such a day, but he still went over to help.
"I don't need you!"
Xie Shang picked up a cleaver and started chopping at the pig's trotters.
Seeing that he was chopping haphazardly, Mingyan raised his eyebrows and said, "If you keep chopping like that, you'll probably hurt yourself before you even hurt the pig's trotters."
He Chengyu walked over and burst out laughing.
"Xie Shang, did you really chop this up? If I hadn't seen you holding a knife, I would have thought you were gnawing on it. This pig is so pitiful, it's dead and you're still chopping it up like this."
"roll!"
Xie Shang put down the kitchen knife in an annoyed tone.
Song Dong comforted him, saying, "It's okay, you'll get better with practice. When I made braised food before, it didn't taste good either. You'll get better after making it a few more times."
Xie Shang sat down next to him and said, "I'll help you start the fire."
Beggar's chicken needs to be roasted over a separate fire.
After Song Xia buried it properly, she called Song Dong to start a fire before she went to process the divided venison and wild boar meat.
The venison was cut up, and the wild boar meat was almost cooked.
Xie Shang's fire-making skills are quite good.
Song Xia washed the pot and started stewing the venison. After the wild boar meat had cooled down a bit, she took it aside and chopped it.
She plans to use this piece of wild boar meat to make twice-cooked pork.
As I cut...
Song Xia noticed that Xie Shang was staring intently at him and reminded him, "Xie Shang, watch out for the fire."
Xie Shang quickly looked away and focused on tending the fire.
Beggar's chicken takes longer to cook, so Song Xia and the others ate while waiting for it to be done.
Song Xia's food undoubtedly received unanimous praise.
therefore.
Everyone looked forward to the beggar's chicken she was making.
He Chengyu also liked the dishes made by Song Xia.
He walked up to her and said, "Your name is Song Xia? You're a good cook. Come work as a cook in our house. I'll give you twenty, no, fifty taels of silver a month."
Xie Shang rolled his eyes at him and said, "Do you know their family situation? Their workshop earns more than what you make in a month."
What? They even run a workshop?
How did Xie Shang find out?
Did Song Dong tell him that?
He Chengyu pondered for a moment and said, "Then I'll give you one hundred taels of silver a month."
"My second sister won't go to your house."
Song Dong returned to He Chengyu.
You're not going?
He Chengyu asked, puzzled, "Why? Do you think I didn't give you enough money?"
Cui Yunsu was about to say something to him.
Song Xia spoke up: "It's not about the money. Although I'm a good cook, I don't cook often, and I don't like to cook every day."
Kid, money isn't everything.
We'll see.
Is she short of money?
He Chengyu was speechless for a moment, but then he started talking again: "Then, can I come to your house for dinner? I'll give you money, and I'll eat whatever you cook."
Xie Shang retorted, "Is your family starving?"
"Can they be the same?"
"Song Xia didn't say anything, so what are you yelling about? What's it to you?"
He Chengyu glared at Xie Shang with displeasure.
Song Dong was speechless.
How much do they dislike each other that they can argue over something as trivial as this?
Song Xia felt that Xie Shang was acting a little strange. She ignored them and went to check on the beggar's chicken. Since she wasn't sure how well it was roasted, she roasted it for a while longer.
As she pulled out the beggar's chicken, everyone gathered around.
"I'll help you."
Mingyan approached and said.
Song Xia didn't stand on ceremony with him: "Okay, you come here, carry it to the wooden board over there."
Since there were no lotus leaves with us, and no banana leaves nearby, we were unable to bring any.
Song Xia used cooking oil from the supermarket to soak the beggar's chicken in paper. As she peeled the beggar's chicken out little by little, a rich aroma wafted out, and everyone present couldn't help but swallow.
It cooled down a bit.
Song Xia started tearing the ground into pieces and placing them aside, inviting everyone to eat.
Yang Dong took a bite and exclaimed, "Delicious! So delicious! I've never eaten such delicious pheasant before. It's so fragrant and tender. I want to eat more after just one bite..."
Cui Yunsu also liked it very much, and she wanted Mingyan to marry Song Xia even more.
In this way.
Doesn't she occasionally get to eat the food she cooks?
Just thinking about it is wonderful.
They ate and drank their fill.
Cui Yunsu instructed Luo Heng and the others to take Xie Shang and the others around, while she left Song Xia, Ming Yan, and Huo Lang behind.
They said they were discussing what to eat in the afternoon.
In reality, she wanted to bring Song Xia and Ming Yan together.
After Luo Heng and the others left, Cui Yunsu said to Huo Lang, who was standing to the side, "Huo Lang, I want to go take a look over there. Will you come with me? Let the two of them decide what to eat this afternoon..."
Holland followed her and walked to the side.
Mingyan watched them leave and asked Song Xia, "Is there anything you'd like to eat?"
"You don't need to do that."
Song Xia spoke frankly.
Mingyan gazed at her and said, "I told you, I didn't say those things because of my master's wife and the others. The reason I haven't married all these years is because I haven't met anyone I'm attracted to. Now, I feel quite attracted to you, and I don't want to give up. If you don't have someone you like, we can try getting to know each other..."
He's quite straightforward.
Song Xia frankly said, "To be honest with you, I don't have any plans to get married right now. I think I'm fine on my own. Like you, I'm not one to settle. Unless the other person really makes my heart flutter, it's impossible for me to get married."
Ming Yan returned to Song Xia.
"I can wait."
Waiting for what? Waiting for her to fall for him?
This guy.
Song Xia didn't intend to continue the topic. She said, "Didn't we ask you to discuss what to eat this afternoon? Let's go see if there are any fish around here. If there are, we can catch a few big ones and make grilled fish."
"Yes, I'll take you there!"
Mingyan took a few steps and said, "The place is a bit far. It would probably take a long time to walk there. I know how to use light footwork. If you'd like, I can take you there directly."
How to bring it.
hug?
Lift?
Before Song Xia could answer, Mingyan reached out to her.
Goodness.
He wanted to hug her!
Song Xia turned and ran: "I'll go get Huo Lang and have him go with you."
Akihiko: "!"
They run fast enough.
Together with Mingyan, Huo Lang not only speared several large grass carp, but also several crucian carp that were three fingers wide, and two carp weighing two or three pounds each.
The grilled fish undoubtedly received unanimous praise.
Yang Dong's older brother, Yang Li, couldn't help but approach Song Xia and ask if she had any ideas about opening a restaurant. If so, they could open one together.
"I have no idea about opening a restaurant, but I'd love to open a grilled fish restaurant."
Song Xia has a business partnership with Ji Ying, so she naturally wouldn't steal his restaurant's business.
"A grilled fish restaurant would also be fine."
Yang Li stared straight at Song Xia.
Xie Shang frowned.
Just as Song Xia was about to continue talking to Yang Li, Xie Shang kicked Song Dong in the butt.
What did I do to offend you?
Song Dong looked puzzled.
Xie Shang replied, "I didn't mean to kick you. I was kicking a stone and accidentally kicked you. It's getting late, let's hurry up and leave, or the city gates will be closed when we get back."
