Chapter 130: Playing with it
Seeing that the three of them all praised this dish, Ying Jinyi couldn't help swallowing her saliva.
Lin Baoer glanced at her, picked up a piece of thigh meat and moved it over, and urged, "Sister Jinyi, do you want to try it?"
Looking at the delicious meat in front of her, Ying Jinyi hardened her heart, gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and took it in one mouthful.
The first thing she tasted was the spicy taste she had tried before, mixed with some sour and numb taste, and then the tender texture comparable to chicken.
There was no strange taste.
Ying Jinyi's eyes suddenly widened, and this novel taste and taste made her taste buds scream wildly.
Delicious!
After she spit out the bone, she still felt endless aftertaste.
"How is it, sister Jinyi? Is it delicious?" Lin Baoer smiled with narrowed eyes, and quietly picked up a piece and put it into her mouth.
[Wow~ It's delicious! ]
Lin Ruqian pinched her chubby face, "Okay, don't eat it secretly, serve it to them and let them taste it too."
Lin Baoer: "Yeah!"
Ying Jinyi also nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
In the private room, Lin Ruqian put the pot of frogs in the middle of the table and called everyone, "Come and taste it, it's fresh!"
Everyone gathered around, staring at the red dish curiously.
"Third Master, what is this?" Wei Zhixu was curious.
Sun Zice took a look from the side, and just as he was about to speak, his mouth was suddenly covered by someone.
Lin Ruqian winked at him slyly, then turned her head and replied to Wei Zhixu: "Try it first and see how it tastes! We spent a lot of effort to make this!"
"It's so mysterious." Wei Zhixu pouted and muttered.
But she still picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece at random and put it in her mouth.
Several people next to her followed suit.
"Hiss."
I don't know who made the first "hiss", followed by a series of rising and falling gasps.
"Spicy!" Wei Zhixu couldn't help but stick out her tongue, and looked for water everywhere because it was so spicy.
Chu Jingchen next to her did the same, but she was still a little calm, just frowned, picked up her teacup and sipped the water, but she was not as ferocious as Wei Zhixu.
"Why is it so spicy?!"
Lin Ruqian put her arm around Lin Mobai's shoulder and said with a smile, "It's just the pepper. You guys are probably not used to it, so you think it's spicy."
"No wonder." Wei Zhixu suddenly realized.
She had just seen the thing Ying Jinyi brought. The Wei family also had it, but she had never tasted it.
"But it tastes pretty good." She commented, affirming the dish.
"The chicken is tender, smooth and not dry, and the pepper gives it a different flavor."
The meat inside was cut into small pieces, very similar to chicken, and was wrapped in various seasonings, and the taste was the same, so she naturally thought that the meat inside was chicken.
After hearing this, Lin Baoer remained silent and even smiled meaningfully.
Lin Ruqian, who seemed to have been led astray by Lin Baoer, also had bad intentions. He did not explain, but looked at Song Qingqing on the other side, "Princess, don't you want to try it?"
When they rushed to the pot of food, Song Qingqing did not come over, but stood at a distance and watched, as if
she was a little restrained because of her status. After all, as a princess, her status was more noble than theirs, and the rules were more strict, so she could not be as casual and unrestrained as them.
Song Qingqing hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and then walked over slowly.
Chu Jingchen took the initiative to make way for her and handed over a pair of clean bowls and chopsticks.
"Thank you." Song Qingqing nodded.
After looking at the plate of meat, Song Qingqing hesitated again.
In the past, in the palace, the eating rules were mostly to eat separately, and never eat from the same bowl with everyone. This was the rule.
After leaving the palace, because of her asthma, she also followed the same rules.
Over time, she got used to it.
But now...
knowing that she shouldn't hesitate too long, Song Qingqing calmed down and picked up a piece and put it in the bowl.
She just noticed that only two girls moved their chopsticks, and they used clean chopsticks, so it shouldn't matter.
Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Song Qingqing put the piece of frog meat into her mouth as promised, and then...
"Hiss!"
Before Song Qingqing turned around to find water, a cup of tea was handed to her.
She raised her eyes and found that it was Lin Mobai.
Lin Mobai's expression was normal, and Song Qingqing couldn't refuse, and her mouth was really spicy, so she took it.
[Hehe! Alright! The next part is the highlight!]
Lin Baoer didn't care about anything and spoke directly in front of Lin Ruqian, "Do you think it's delicious? This is the best frog, just caught from the field, it's fresh!" As
soon as she finished speaking, the whole private room suddenly fell silent.
"What do you say this is?" Wei Zhixu was stunned.
Chu Jingchen also raised his eyes suddenly.
Song Qingqing's action of wiping her mouth also froze.
Sun Zice held his forehead.
Lin Mobai's eyes flashed with helplessness.
Only Lin Baoer and Lin Ruqian had smiles in their eyes.
Ying Jinyi stared at the frog dish with burning eyes. If she hadn't seen through Lin Ruqian's thoughts and acted with them, she might have started eating.
"Frog, Sister Wei, it's delicious!" Ying Jinyi couldn't wait to pick up a piece, excited, "I thought it looked ugly and unpalatable at first! I didn't expect it to be so delicious! I have changed my mind about it!"
Song Qingqing's face turned from red to white, and finally from white to black. Suddenly, those frogs jumping very high in the weeds and making ugly frog sounds appeared in her mind, and her stomach twitched immediately.
"You said this is... a frog?" Wei Zhixu's lips trembled, and her usually cheerful smile broke, as if she had heard something terrible.
Chu Jingchen was always the calmest. She glanced at Lin Baoer and Lin Ruqian and immediately understood what they were thinking. She was a little annoyed. "Don't you know that we never eat this kind of thing?"
The noble lady had never tasted this kind of thing before and felt that she was really teased.
Fearing that they would really get angry, Lin Ruqian quickly explained, "We can't eat this thing on weekdays because there are better choices, such as chicken, duck, and fish. However, frogs are a common food for farmers. The meat is tender and fresh, just like chicken, and the taste is excellent."
"It's just that the taste is different because of the different cooking methods. Some are unpalatable, and some are delicious."
"It just so happened that today, sister Jinyi brought this pepper over, and Shenghuai Restaurant happened to have fresh frogs, so I decided to try it."
After realizing that she had angered these Buddhas, Lin Ruqian was embarrassed and apologized obediently, "This time it's my fault. I was too excited because it tasted so good. I let you try it first without telling you in advance. I hope you sisters will forgive me this time."
