Mu Feng blushed a little and didn't dare to look up at Ningxue.
Aunt Zhang saw this and approached Xia Tian and whispered, "Is Mu Feng interested in Ning Xue?"
After saying that, he looked between the two of them.
Xia Tian smiled and nodded slightly, "Well, I haven't explained it yet!"
Aunt Zhang understood what she meant and smiled.
Cuiyun and the others had just seen Mu Feng's actions, and they all teased Ningxue, making her face blush with embarrassment.
After walking around Guangfu Temple for a long time, it was almost noon. Muchen came over and invited them to go to the dining hall for vegetarian meals.
Xia Tian and Aunt Zhang took a large group of people to have lunch.
I didn't expect the dining hall here to be so big. It can accommodate almost 200 people eating at the same time.
The tables, chairs and benches in the dining hall are all long, very similar to modern school cafeterias, except that they are all wooden tables and are longer.
A table can seat about ten people facing each other.
Muchen had already asked people to reserve two tables, which were just enough to accommodate all of them.
It was dinner time and there were many pilgrims, so there were almost no empty tables.
After they all sat down, the monks from Guangfu Temple began to serve the dishes.
Each table has eight dishes, two cold dishes, four hot dishes, and two soups.
The main dishes are mushroom fried rice and vegetarian noodles with soybean paste.
"Madam, try this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Although it's vegetarian, the broth is made with seafood mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and matsutake mushrooms. It's rich, fragrant, and sweet. It's Guangfu Temple's most famous dish, and almost every pilgrim who comes here for a vegetarian meal loves it."
Aunt Zhang picked up the spoon and filled Xia Tian with half a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall while introducing it to her.
"Then let me try it." Xia Tian thanked Aunt Zhang, took the bowl, and took a small sip with a spoon. His eyes widened in amazement. "It's delicious. You can't tell it's vegetarian Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. It's even more delicious!"
Xia Tian drank several mouthfuls in a row before he slowed down. He didn't expect that such delicious food could be hidden in this small Guangfu Temple. No wonder Cui Ling wanted to eat vegetarian food when she talked about it.
This is indeed delicious!
Seeing that she liked drinking, the others each served a little less, fearing that she would not have enough.
"Drink more, I can't eat so much." Xia Tian hurriedly said, "It's not easy for you to come here, don't be polite. If it's not enough, just order another one."
After hearing what she said, the others started eating.
Although there are only ten dishes including the staple food, each dish is generous in portion and you will have no problem eating your fill.
There are only girls at this table, and their appetites are even smaller.
After drinking another bowl of soup, she started to eat the main course.
When he was away from home, he didn't let Ningxiang and the others serve him, he did everything himself.
Each person had a small bowl of vegetarian noodles with soybean paste. Xia Tian stirred it and before he started eating, he knew from the color that it would taste good.
After taking a bite, I knew the taste was authentic. "This noodle with soybean paste tastes great too. You guys should try it."
I have never eaten such delicious noodles since I came to Linzhou.
The taste is no worse than that in Beijing.
"This noodle with soybean paste is no worse than the time-honored Beijing brands. Although the sauce is vegetarian, it is not bland at all. I don't know how it's made." Cui Ling was also amazed after taking a bite.
"Yeah, it's really delicious." Ningxiang and the others nodded affirmatively after tasting it.
"I didn't expect that after more than 20 years, the taste of this vegetarian meal has not changed at all. I just wonder if it is made by the same master." Aunt Zhang couldn't help but sigh.
When she ate the vegetarian meal, she felt that it tasted exactly the same as it did more than 20 years ago.
Unexpectedly, although the old friend has grown old, some of the flavors are still the same as in my memory.
"You said we should go to the monks in Guangfu Temple to ask for a vegetarian recipe. Will they give it to us?" Cui Ling was eating from her bowl and was already thinking about what was in the other person's pot.
"What are you thinking about?" Xia Tian teased her. "Guangfu Temple relies on this vegetarian food to attract more pilgrims. Even if I give the recipe to someone else, how can I attract a foodie like you?"
"That's true." Cui Ling scratched her head embarrassedly.
"Although I don't need the recipe, we can try to make it when we get back to see if we can make it."
Xia Tian had already figured out the general recipe, and thought that as long as they didn't sell it outside, they could just make it at home and eat it, which should be fine.
"Well, this is also a way. I just don't know if it can be made as delicious." Cui Ling said, and began to taste it carefully again.
It seems like it wants to taste what's inside.
Xia Tian ignored her. She had eaten this vegetarian food before at Lingwu Temple, but it was not as delicious as the one at Guangfu Temple.
She then served some more mushroom fried rice and savored it slowly along with the other dishes.
Overall, every dish on the table tasted good, but the best ones were the vegetarian Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and vegetarian Zhajiang Mian.
However, the other dishes are just as good as the signature dish in the restaurant at the foot of the mountain.
This shows how good the chefs at Guangfu Temple are.
If you open a vegetarian restaurant in Sangluo City, you will definitely make a lot of money.
When Xia Tian thought about opening a restaurant, he couldn't help but think of Yuejin Pavilion in Beijing. He wondered how the business was doing now.
Although she had asked Butler Xu to take a letter to Uncle Gu last time, she had not received a reply yet and did not know what was going on in the capital.
Thinking that they would probably stay in Linzhou for at least three years, she wondered whether she should open another restaurant in Sangluo City.
Linzhou likes spicy food, and she has plenty of recipes from the eight major cuisines, so it should be quite easy for her to open a restaurant.
It's just that the person in charge is hard to find.
She also thought that if Shen Nian was no longer working in Linzhou in three years, she would have to find a reliable person to manage her restaurant.
Xia Tian was eating while daydreaming, and before he knew it, he had finished another bowl of rice.
By the time I put down the bowl, I felt a little full.
"Madam, I noticed that you had a good appetite just now and didn't have any other reactions. This shows that you are a blessed person." Aunt Zhang was also very happy to see that she ate a lot.
When you are pregnant, you need to eat more so that the baby can grow well.
"Hey, I was thinking about something just now and accidentally ate too much." Xia Tian touched his stomach embarrassedly.
But she does not have any pregnancy reaction now. It seems that she can't stand the smell of fish, and everything else seems to be fine.
She has no dietary restrictions and eats whatever she wants.
As long as she can control her blood sugar a little bit, it will be fine.
She still knew these parenting knowledge, because she had a good girlfriend who had been teaching her this knowledge every day since she became pregnant.
Sometimes he has to accompany her to the hospital for prenatal checkups, so he knows everything about her.
"You don't have any reaction, which means this child is also a kind person. It's okay to eat a little more. We'll go for a walk outside later to help digest the food." Aunt Zhang looked at her lovingly and said.
"Well, isn't it said that the peach blossoms bloom for half a month? Let's go and see them too." Xia Tian took Nanny Zhang's arm.
When I went up the mountain just now, I only took a glance from a distance and didn't look carefully.
Besides, the foot of the mountain is a bit far away, and the view is not clear. It is said that if you want to see farther, you have to go out from the back door of Guangfu Temple and walk up about ten meters, where the scenery is the best!
