Chapter 14 Discovering the Secret Pack it up and I'll take it all away.

Jiang Yanyi was frightened by his stare and could only respond with a polite yet distant smile.

Feng Shuo then withdrew his gaze and took a look at the wontons in the bowl. The wonton skin was too thin and almost translucent after cooking. The pink meat filling inside was clearly visible, each one round and lovely.

The soup was very well cooked, fresh and rich, but very clear, without any oil beads, and only a few chopped green onions floating on it.

Even though he knew that he couldn't taste the delicious wontons when he put them in his mouth, Feng Shuo still had some appetite.

He picked up the soup spoon and scooped a spoonful to drink. The moment he took a sip, his whole body froze.

Fresh!

Salty!

Fragrant!

The taste was so clear, stronger than any he had tasted before, that Feng Shuo was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

Then a wave of surprise rose in his narrow eyes.

He picked up a wonton with a lot of fillings with chopsticks and ate it. The wonton skin was soft and smooth, and the meat filling inside was unusually tender. Because it was soaked in soup, the taste was also particularly delicious.

Feng Shuo finished the whole bowl of wontons in one breath without saying a word, and even drank up the soup.

It was the first time that Jiang Yanyi saw someone eating at a speed comparable to wolfing down food, and eating so elegantly.

She looked at the empty bowl, swallowed her saliva and asked, "Do you want more?"

Feng Shuo hesitated for a moment and said, "No need."

There is a time for eating. He usually does not eat after the hour of You. Tonight is an exception. Although he only ate half full, there is still a long way to go.

Jiang Yanyi breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that this military advisor would ask for another bowl.

After all, he looked thin and gentle. She made the wontons for two people. He ate until there was no soup left, which made her astonished.

While Jiang Yanyi was still sighing, Feng Shuo asked, "How do you make these wontons?"

Jiang Yanyi was familiar with this process. If the dish was delicious, there would always be a few diners who were satisfied with the meal and would be curious about the method.

She said, "Wonton skin, pork filling, just wrap it up and cook it in the pot. The taste is all in the soup, which is a clear soup made from old hens and pork bones."

The fireman next to him wanted to praise Jiang Yanyi's cooking skills, and interrupted, "Although Master Jiang is a new chef in our fireman camp, his skills are very good! The first time he made tofu pudding, he was rewarded by the general. This morning, his knife skills when he made knife-cut noodles stunned the other masters on the stove. The lion head he made at noon was also amazing!"

Feng Shuo listened to the fireman's words, and something flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his delicate lips slightly raised.

It is really a case of looking for something without any effort.

His eyes fell on Jiang Yanyi again. He had looked at her for a long time before, but she didn't look like a cook.

After all, who can keep such fair and tender hands if they cook all year round?

She has a beautiful face and a noble temperament, but she doesn't look like a girl that can be raised by an ordinary family.

There is a bump on her forehead, and her last name is Jiang...

Too many doubts, all pointing in that direction.

However, the dishes she made just happened to help him regain his sense of taste, and also disturbed Feng Shuo's thoughts.

Fortunately, he grew up in the cannibalistic palace when he was young, and later he had many years of experience in the army. He had long been able to remain calm even when facing a huge crisis. At this moment, he just looked relaxed: "It sounds interesting. Do you have paper and pen? Please write down the recipes of these dishes. I will go back and ask the chef in the mansion to cook them."

The fireman who had just spoken looked at Jiang Yanyi awkwardly. He worked in the Fireman Camp, so he naturally knew that every chef treasured his specialty dishes, fearing that others would steal them.

He wanted to speak well of Jiang Yanyi, but he didn't expect that this military advisor didn't know much and asked Jiang Yanyi for the recipe directly.

Feng Shuo was a man of few people. He knew the key just by looking at the fireman's eyes.

He had no money on him, so he took off the mutton-fat jade pendant tied around his waist and put it on the table, pushing it towards Jiang Yanyi: "This is a thank-you gift."

When she was the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, she had handled countless gold, jade and gemstones, but she had never received such a fine mutton-fat jade. Jiang Yanyi dared not accept it, and hurriedly said: "I am unworthy of it. It is my honor to have a few small dishes favored by the military advisor. How can I ask for such a valuable item from you? I will write the recipe for you now."

What jade pendant? If you take the jade pendant to the pawnshop to exchange for money, you have to show the jade contract when you bought the jade. Without the jade contract, it will be considered stolen. Even if it is successfully pawned, the price will be very low.

If you want to give, give real money!

Jiang Yanyi quickly fetched a pen and paper, and laid on the table, writing a menu

while secretly complaining. Feng Shuo leaned back in an armchair, supporting his head with one hand, looking at the cook who was writing and drawing across the table, his eyes sometimes bright and sometimes dim, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

The wind lamp hanging on the door of the tent cast a dim halo of light, casting a layer of soft light on Jiang Yanyi's profile. She lowered her eyebrows and wrote the recipe, her expression was very focused, and her long eyelashes like crow feathers cast a fan-shaped shadow under her eyelids.

It is said that "beauty under the moon is jade under the lamp", but looking at beauty under the lamp seems to have a different style.

While waiting for Jiang Yanyi to write the menu, Feng Shuo took a sip of the hot tea served by the fireman. It was not a good tea, and it tasted astringent, but this was the first time he tasted the taste of tea.

After the astringent taste on the tip of the tongue faded away, some bitter fragrance came out again. No wonder it was favored by literati and scholars.

Feng Shuo looked at the sugar-roasted chestnuts on the table and suddenly wanted to try them.

Qiu Kui just watched the handsome military advisor eat a sugar-roasted chestnut with a slightly stunned expression, and then ate the second and third chestnuts without hesitation...

Qiu Kui's heart was bleeding - that was originally intended for her by Jiang Yanyi.

Fortunately, when the military advisor had eaten half of the plate of sugar-roasted chestnuts, Jiang Yanyi had written the menu, and the military advisor stopped eating the chestnuts, and Qiu Kui felt relieved.

Fortunately, she still had half a plate to eat.

Feng Shuo took the menu written by Jiang Yanyi, scanned the handwriting on the paper, and his eyes twitched slightly.

It was the first time he saw someone write the hairpin flower small regular script in a big way. The handwriting was really clumsy and funny.

Jiang Yanyi naturally saw that the military advisor disliked her handwriting and stood aside awkwardly.

It's really not her fault. She is a modern person who can't write calligraphy at all. She was originally a beauty with a simple brush. The only calligraphy she learned was the small calligraphy with flowers in hairpins. But she didn't learn it seriously, so she had such an awkward handwriting.

Feng Shuo glanced at it for a few times, probably because it was too spicy for his eyes, so he didn't look at it carefully and said, "Since you don't accept this jade pendant, I will send someone to send the reward silver tomorrow."

Jiang Yanyi's eyes lit up instantly. This military advisor understood her thoughts very well!

But he still said, "Military advisor, you are really too polite."

Feng Shuo frowned. He didn't like to nag, and said with one word, "It's settled."

When he stood up, he glanced at the sugar-roasted chestnuts on the table and asked, "Did you make this too?"

Jiang Yanyi nodded.

Feng Shuo said, "Pack it up and I'll take it all away."

Qiu Kui, who was standing by, shuddered when he heard this.
