Chapter 185: Meet the Foodie Again



The thing she was talking about is the octopus, which people in the northerners often call "batou". (The pronunciation of the Chinese character "tou" is in the falling tone, and I don't know how to write the specific word.) As for the blood sac or something, that is pure nonsense, because it is actually the ink sac of the octopus.

Sure enough, Lu Fengyu became interested and nodded, saying, "I know what you are talking about. It looks ferocious, but it turns out to be delicious? I want to try it next time."

"Why eat it? If you are anxious to taste this, just take a bite of yourself." Su Nuannuan did not even look at Lu Fengyu, and skillfully scooped out the remaining noodles from the pot, then added water to wash the pot, but heard Lu Fengyu ask in confusion: "You will know after taking a bite? What do you mean?"

"People like you must have black blood. So if you want to know what it's like to be a bully, just bite off a piece of meat from your own body and eat it. There's no need to go far to get something close." After Su Nuannuan finished speaking, she casually placed the leftover noodles in the big bowl on the stove and said to a cook in the corner, "Feed the leftover noodles to the pigs. People can't eat them."

Lu Fengyu's expression changed several times. He was the only one who hurt others lightly. No one had ever set such a language trap for him. Although it was just a small trick, it was the first time he suffered a loss. Don't look at this guy's immortal appearance. Since he is a foodie, it is impossible for him to be able to hide his emotions. He smiled viciously and nodded, "Okay... Miss, you have a sharp tongue, but your cooking skills are really good. This small kitchen really treats you badly. Even the imperial chef in the imperial kitchen of the capital is probably no better than this."

"Sir, don't bother to instigate them. Haven't you seen how everyone treats you? Besides, how many times can you come here in a day? I have won over these people with delicious food and ingredients. Do you think you can instigate them with just your mouth?" Su Nuannuan sneered. Her words made Lu Fengyu speechless.

"Madam Wang, please don't do this." A cook finally spoke up. Although Lu Fengyu was not a good person, he was the guest of the host after all, so there was no reason to offend him so boldly.

But Su Nuannuan said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? Didn't you hear what the master said? I hate him the most. If I don't help the master now, when will I? I don't believe that the master will drive away an excellent cook like me for a person he hates. Mr. Lu also said that my cooking skills are not inferior even if I go to the imperial kitchen, right, Mr. Lu?"

"You are really funny, little lady. Hahaha!" Lu Fengyu laughed. He turned around and left the kitchen, wondering where did Su Donglou find such a foolish and bold cook? Hmm! Maybe he arranged all this today? His purpose was to make me be ridiculed by this woman. That woman was not valued in front of the prince because of me. And she could never find any evidence against me, so she could only use this stupid method to vent her anger?

As he was thinking, he returned to the living room, where he saw Su Donglou sitting there, smiling and drinking tea. When he saw him come in, he laughed and said, "How was it? Did you go and eat the puffer fish? I'm afraid it wasn't very tasty, was it?"

Su Donglou actually knew nothing about what happened in the kitchen. But he knew Lu Fengyu's character. This bad guy was the kind who wanted nothing but chaos in the world. He was ungrateful and jealous of others' talents. Now that he had eaten Su Nuannuan's food, he must be thinking of bad things again. There were at least fifteen servants in his own courtyard who had fought and broken their heads because of him. But from Duan Tingxuan's narration, he knew that Su Nuannuan was definitely not a good person. Could he allow this guy to sow discord? In addition, Lu Fengyu had been delayed in the kitchen for such a long time. So Su Donglou understood everything.

But Lu Fengyu didn't know the relationship between them. When he heard what Su Donglou said, he was sure that the foolish and bold cook was really hired by Su Donglou to punish him. He thought to himself that this guy was right. I have always been cautious and have no desires. I only have such a little hobby of talking, but he can use it. However, arguing and fighting are just small tricks and will not help. Su Donglou has run out of tricks and only has this little trick left. Well, don't be angry, I'm not angry.

As he was thinking, a maid served him tea and snacks, which were the necessary parts of hospitality. Lu Fengyu would occasionally take a sip of tea, but would not touch the snacks. He and Su Donglou were the typical people who did not get along well with each other in spirit, and eating snacks in front of each other, wouldn't that be too cheap?

However, the snacks today seemed different from the usual chicken rolls and sugar cakes. What was that light yellow thing? And why were steamed buns served? But the steamed buns were very small and fried. Could they be eaten as snacks?

"If you can hold back today, I'll admire you." Su Donglou saw that Lu Fengyu's eyes lingered on the plate. The annoying guy who was always elegant and proud now showed such a greedy expression, which looked very cute, so he smiled and said.

Lu Fengyu glared at him, then hesitantly asked, "What are these two? Could this be the now famous snow-white bean paste? The one I had at Huiyanlou last time didn't look as good as this."

"Of course. Huiyanlou is just an imitation. Mine is the authentic craft of Anlelou in the capital." Su Donglou sneered. Anlelou is the restaurant of Anping Marquis Mansion, and the snow-white bean paste originated from Anping Marquis Mansion, so Su Donglou said it was the authentic craft.

"Oh? I don't quite believe it. Could it be that the foolish and bold cook you hired is actually the cook of Anle Building?"

Lu Fengyu snorted coldly, but immediately became confused. He thought of the secret report he had received before, saying that Duan Tingxuan and Su Nuannuan had gone to Niutou Mountain. At that time, the King of Xiangyang was very nervous about this matter for a while, fearing that they would get some valuable clues from the former Duke Ping. But now it was difficult to kill the old guy. Now thinking about it, could it be that the prince and himself were wrong, and the couple did not go to Niutou Mountain, but came to Jiangnan secretly and hid in the courtyard of Su Donglou?

On second thought, he felt it was impossible. Duan Tingxuan was fine, he was a ruthless and fearless man, but even if he didn't care about his own life, could he not care about his wife's life? Bringing your beloved wife to this dangerous place in Jiangnan, it's not the way to play it.

While thinking quickly in his mind, he had already picked up a piece of snow-soft bean paste and put it into his mouth. After taking a bite, his eyes lit up. After swallowing it hastily, he asked hurriedly, "It's really authentic. Did this cook work in Anle Tower? It is said that the exclusive meals and snacks of Anle Tower are kept very secret. Until now, no one has been able to find out all of them. How did this young lady find out?"
