Chapter 118 The truth comes out
With bamboo shoots, wouldn't it be easy to seduce Dang Hong?
There are thousands of ways to cook bamboo shoots. The first one that came to Tang Jia's mind was pickled pork with preserved vegetables. However, there was not enough black pork, so there was no chance to make bacon at all, and naturally there was no material for pickled pork with preserved vegetables.
Tang Jia had no choice but to settle for the second best and choose to make braised bamboo shoots in oil.
First, remove the old roots and skins of the bamboo shoots, cut them into inch-long pieces, put them into a pot of boiling water, add salt and blanch them to remove excess calcium oxalate, then remove them and drain the water for later use.
Next, heat up another pan, add a lot of oil, add ginger slices and stir-fry until fragrant, add bamboo shoots and stir-fry until the surface is slightly charred, then add rock sugar, dark soy sauce and light soy sauce and stir well.
Add half a bowl of water to the pot, cover the pot and simmer on low heat for five minutes, then continue to stir-fry on high heat until the juice is dried up.
The braised bamboo shoots had not even come out of the pot when Dang Hong ran over following the smell.
Looking at his black and white skin and skinny appearance, Tang Jia couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.
Our national treasure is guarding your pot intently, what else can you do?
Of course, open the lid and let it eat its fill!
Bamboo shoots have thick skin, and only one-third of a whole basket of bamboo shoots can be peeled, which only makes up a small pot of it.
In just a quarter of an hour, Dang Hong devoured it all.
Looking at the pot that had been cleaned up thoroughly, not even the soup was left out, Tang Jia looked at Dang Hong and said with gritted teeth, "Since you've already licked it once, don't mess with other containers.
This is your future job!"
Using a pot as a bowl?
Why didn't he think of it?
Dang Hong nodded without hesitation and agreed. He even washed it clean and put it in his storage space.
What is this operation?
Tang Jia didn't understand, but Sun Wei guessed it.
"A pot can hold more than a bowl, so what's wrong with that?"
Tang Jia had never thought of this train of thought!
With bamboo shoots, Tang Jia could easily deal with Dang Hong.
But people leave their shadows behind and wild geese leave their traces behind.
No matter how careful Tang Jia was, he still revealed his true colors.
She didn't expect that the little bamboo whip would become more prudent after suffering so much.
He actually secretly stored a little bit of supernatural power, and spit it out after Tang Jia left, and quickly turned into a green bamboo.
It's no big deal if a red apricot has an affair with another man, but it's more important if a green bamboo has an affair with another man... Professor Gui Kaigui can't stand it and comes directly to the door.
Zhan Chen didn't expect that accepting a few boxes of snacks would cause such a big trouble. He directly gave Sun Wei and Tang Jia away without hesitation.
Thus, the truth was revealed.
However, Zhan Chen still had some conscience and did not forget to take a photo of the "evidence" and send it to Sun Wei and Tang Jia so that they would have some peace of mind.
Faced with the conclusive "evidence", Sun Wei and Tang Jia looked at each other in bewilderment.
What else can I do?
Of course, I will wait for Professor Gui’s decision!
Professor Gui Kaigui came in angrily, but stopped when he saw Dang Hong basking in the sun in Tang Jia's yard.
Just when she was in a dilemma, Dang Hong slowly opened his eyes and snorted.
Professor Gui Kaigui immediately put on a smile and greeted Dang Hong warmly, "Uncle, why are you here?"
Dang Hong slowly opened his computer and typed in two words: "free meal".
Free meal?
Professor Gui Kaigui didn’t quite understand, but Professor Sun Wei understood it immediately.
Today’s matter is settled!
Only Zhan Chen, a foodie who had no idea what was going on, kept asking, "Is it the kind from the dinner party? Sweet and sour carp, braised pork, steamed chicken, roast duck... the kind?"
Dang Hong nodded, then shook his head.
Zhan Chen didn't quite understand, but Sun Wei understood immediately and couldn't help but explain for Dang Hong: "It's not sweet and sour carp, braised pork, steamed chicken, roast duck..., but braised bamboo shoots, cold fresh bamboo shoots and sour bamboo shoots and beef hot pot, stir-fried gluten with mushrooms and bamboo shoots, bamboo shoot and pork rib soup, bamboo shoot chicken, and stir-fried bamboo shoots with shredded pork..."
Although Zhan Chen didn't quite understand, it didn't stop him from drooling while listening.
However, Sun Wei's voice became smaller and smaller under Gui Kai's stare, and finally disappeared completely.
Seeing this, Dang Hong patted the ground in displeasure, and Gui Kai reluctantly withdrew his gaze.
Zhan Chen finally understood the situation, swallowed silently, and closed his mouth.
Professor Sun Wei curled the corners of his mouth and said meaningfully: "Mr. Dang has reached an agreement with my mother that he will stay in my house for a while to recuperate.
If Professor Gui wants to come visit the elders, the Si family will certainly make sure to welcome him at any time."
Forget about finding fault!
After understanding Sun Wei's subtext, how could Gui Kai's expression improve?
But because Dang Hong was beside him, Gui Kai couldn't get angry and could only squeeze out a few words:
"Professor Sun is so eloquent!"
Sun Wei smiled faintly and said frankly, "Professor Gui, you're too kind!"
While speaking, Sun Wei did not forget to wink at Tang Jia.
Tang Jia understood immediately, took Zhan Chen's arm and walked out, saying as he walked, "Since Professor Gui doesn't like it, I'd better pull out the natural ingredients!"
Zhan Chen immediately took advantage of the situation and followed Tang Jia to his home.
After walking out of Gui Kai's sight, Zhan Chen let out a long sigh and shouted, "Did you see Professor Gui's expression? It was terrifying."
Tang Jia rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily, "You know she's scary, but you still brought her to my house?"
Zhan Chen scratched his head and laughed dryly, "That's right, a higher-ranking official can crush someone to death!"
Tang Jia didn't respond, but called Ram to help her transplant the cherry tomatoes.
Zhan Chen was surprised and said, "You really pulled it out!"
Tang Jia raised his eyebrows and said, "What else?"
Zhan Chen said honestly: "It's not these cherry tomatoes that Professor Gui cares about."
Tang Jiahun said nonchalantly, "I know, it's that green bamboo!"
Zhan Chen was confused for a moment.
"and you……"
Tang Jia walked across the field where Ram had finished picking cherry tomatoes, and came to the green bamboo. He smiled slightly and said, "Just be patient!"
Tang Jia took out the small flower hoe specially made by Grandpa Simingen from the storage space and started digging the land around the green bamboo.
After a while, the green bamboo and its bamboo whip were revealed.
Tang Jia used a hoe to dig the bamboo shoots into three sections, sprinkled some wood ash on the section near the wall, and buried it.
After disinfecting the middle section, put it into your own storage space.
The remaining bamboo whip with a tail and green bamboo was disinfected and placed in a flowerpot. It was covered with soil, watered, and given some special powers to accelerate its growth before being handed to Ram.
The skillful operation and the significance it represented made Zhan Chen, who had finally come to his senses, stunned in place.
damage!
It's such a shame!
"you……"
"A box of snacks!"
“…”
“Two boxes!”
“…”
"Four boxes! No more!"
"make a deal!"
Zhan Chen shed tears like noodles, lamenting his own fall and the deliciousness of the dim sum.
Tang Jia brushed the dust off his hands, turned around and went home to report.
A few days later, green bamboos also grew in the Si family's back garden.
No one knows where these green bamboos came from. All we know is that for a long time, Professor Gui Kaigui's face looked bad.
