Chapter 338
At noon, Cheng Zhai's food was cooked according to Lin Xiazhi's usual taste, but when he thought about the taste of hot pot, he immediately felt that the food in front of him was not tasty, so he ate a few bites pickily.
Lin Xiazhi is rarely a picky eater on weekdays, and when he suddenly saw him, Cheng Wenliu's scalp immediately tensed up: "Brother Xia, isn't today's food not to your liking?"
"It's okay." Lin Xiazhi didn't want to talk to him.
"Do you have anything you want to eat, or I'll ask the kitchen to make a new one." Cheng Wenliu said another way.
"There's nothing I want to eat, so it's the same when I do it again." Lin Xiazhi was unhappy, Cheng Wenliu was still grinding beside him, and as soon as he put down his chopsticks, "You still eat or not, and if you don't eat, go back to the room with me to sleep."
Cheng Wenliu glanced at Lin Xiazhi's rice bowl. He usually eats one and a half bowls, but today he only ate half a bowl. With this way of eating, he must not be full. Cheng Wenliu is not worried about letting him go back to sleep: "If you want to eat, you can eat it. Eat, brother Xia, you are the best, you can eat with me for a while."
"What a hassle!" Lin Xiazhi took back the chopsticks and looked at Cheng Wenliu with disgust.
Cheng Wenliu choked for a moment, he didn't do anything today, he just offended Lin Xiazhi by saying a few more words during the meal, it seems that he will have to ask Lin Xiaodong what happened in the morning later.
After eating, Cheng Wenliu searched around but didn't see Lin Xiaodong. After asking, he found out that Lin Xiaodong took two people with whom he usually had a good relationship to go out to eat hot pot.
He knows the hot pot, it’s the newly opened food restaurant after the Mid-Autumn Festival. I heard that the taste is very delicious and the business is very hot. When the queue is up, no matter whether it is time to eat or not, you will definitely be the first to rush in to eat.
Cheng Wenliu rubbed his chin, wondering whether Lin Xiaodong went out to eat hot pot and Lin Xiazhi had a bad temper. If there was a connection, did it mean that Brother Xia wanted to eat hot pot, or did it mean that Brother Xia didn't like hot pot.
Is it because for a long time, the food that Xia Geer made has always been very novel and delicious, and now a hot pot has been killed halfway, which makes Xia Geer unhappy?
Cheng Wenliu guessed again and again, and finally missed the correct answer. He decided not to talk about hot pot in front of Lin Xiazhi in the future, so as not to make Lin Xiazhi unhappy again.
It's a pity that Cheng Wenliu didn't talk about it here, but Lin Xiaodong would still talk about it after he came back.
Lin Xiazhi woke up after taking a nap, and Lin Xiaodong and the other two Cheng family servants came back smelling of hot pot. They ate so much at the hot pot restaurant that their bellies were full.
Not only was his stomach full, but his lips were also red and swollen, his mouth and throat were hot, and his sweaty hair was sticking to his scalp, looking inexplicably embarrassed.
Unlike them going out happily, they didn't look very happy when they came back, and they didn't feel refreshed physically and mentally after eating delicious food.
Lin Xiazhi looked at them like this, and became curious about their experience in the hot pot restaurant: "What's wrong with you three?"
Because Lin Xiazhi is relatively kind on weekdays, they are more casual when facing Lin Xiazhi.
"Young husband, it's too spicy." Lin Xiaodong said in a hoarse voice, "I have a sore throat right now, it's so uncomfortable."
"Young husband, I've eaten too much, and I can feel my throat." Another servant's voice was also hoarse, and he covered his mouth after he finished speaking, as if he was afraid that he would spit it out.
"Me too, should we go to the doctor's clinic and ask the doctor to prescribe some medicine for digestion." Another servant suggested with difficulty.
"I can't take the medicine anymore, and I don't even want to drink water now." Lin Xiaodong shook his head, "But I really want to drink water now, I feel so thirsty."
After speaking, the three of them looked at each other, and they all saw tears and regret in each other's eyes.
"You guys are really good at it. You can just stop eating if you can't finish it. How good is the taste? Let you all stay like this, and you probably don't have to eat at night." Lin Xiazhi looked at them with disgust.
"The Tai Chi pot we ordered is spicy and fragrant at the same time. It tastes very good at the beginning, but the spicy side is both numb and spicy. After cooking the vegetables, they are very fragrant. But after eating half of them, I I couldn’t taste the flavors other than spicy and salty, so I started to put the vegetables on the bottom of the fragrant pot. I don’t know if it was too spicy before. I eat the bottom of the fragrant pot. It's not fresh or fragrant at all, just like chicken soup mixed with a lot of water." Lin Xiaodong told the story of how they ate hot pot today with a bitter face.
A person next to him continued to add: "The three of us went to eat, and we wanted to try every dish, so we ordered almost all meat dishes and a combination of vegetarian dishes. We said that the three people would eat the same, so we believed it and paid the money, happily waiting for the dishes and pots to be served.”
"However, when the dishes were actually served, we realized that the table was full. If we replaced the three of us with men, we might barely be able to finish the meal, but we are three brothers, how could we finish the meal? " Another servant was about to cry, "The most irritating thing is that they have set a time for eating hot pot, and they have to finish eating in an hour, otherwise they will charge us more money, what is the reason! Before we finished eating, Xiao Er said that our time is up, and asked us to finish eating and go out immediately, which is really annoying!"
"This is not a buffet. Why is there a time limit? This fellow's mind was caught by the door." Lin Xiazhi's mouth twitched.
Lin Xiaodong didn't understand some of Lin Xiazhi's words, but he almost understood the meaning of the whole sentence: "I heard that there was no time limit at the beginning. There were too many people waiting in line to eat, so the shop owner thought about it." Such a way."
"Also, it's too hot in the hotpot restaurant. Think about it, Shao Fulang. The charcoal is burning under the pot, and the dishes to be eaten must be cooked in the pot and picked up. On such a hot day, we started to sweat as soon as we entered the shop." , The process of eating hot pot is even more sweaty, but! There is no ice basin in this hot pot restaurant, and my clothes are soaked when I come out of it after eating."
"It's also expensive. The three of us ate a meal, and we used three taels of silver. It's more than a robbery. The pot costs two hundred copper coins. The taste is not as good as I imagined, and the attitude of the waiter in the store is also very bad. It’s not as delicious as the skewers made by my brother Xiaoqiu.” Lin Xiaodong complained angrily.
It’s not that his taste was taken away by Yang Yusheng’s gourmet food, it’s that he really felt that the environment, service, and taste of this hot pot were out of proportion to its price, and he was still angry when he went to eat, but he didn’t want to eat it anymore .
After listening to the complaints of the three of them, Lin Xiazhi asked them to go out for a stroll to digest food, so as not to let others see what they said with their belly puffed out as if they were pregnant.
After Lin Xiaodong left, Lin Xiazhi tapped on the table to analyze whether the hot pot owner who suddenly appeared was a fellow villager.
It’s late summer and early autumn now, and the ice cubes stored by big families should be used up, so ice cubes are expensive. They will choose to open a hot pot restaurant in that size and location, which shows that the cost of their preparation is not high, and they probably won’t be willing to spend it. Buy ice cubes at a high price to cool the room.
However, as long as a fellow countryman should know how to make ice with saltpeter, he is useless.
The store is very busy, the temperature is high, and the customers are already grumpy. It is also strange that the waiter's temper and poor service will definitely directly affect the reputation of the store.
After eating the spicy hot pot, only the spicy taste remains, which means that the bottom of the pot is not adjusted properly. Attitude, bad taste, this is the deadliest thing in eating, it is impossible for a fellow villager not to know these things.
As for the price, according to Lin Xiazhi, it is indeed a bit high. The ingredients of the hot pot are not very delicate, and the processing method is also simple and rude. .
If it is really like what he thinks, this fellow is so desperate to kill the chicken to get the eggs. In his previous life, hot pot was popular all over the country, and it blossomed all over the country, which shows its charm. As long as it is done well, it will be a golden egg. hen.
"Let's see, let's talk about it. If it's really someone whose brain was caught by the door, I'd better not go forward and admit my relatives, so as not to make myself feel bad." Lin Xiazhi made a final decision and decided to put the hot pot aside first, at least wait Let's talk about it after he has a baby.
Lin Xiazhi wanted to taste the pancakes made by Yang Yusheng more than Lin Xiaodong and the others did not like hot pot.
Numerous experiences told him that as long as he accurately described the texture and taste of the food, and then provided the main ingredients, Yang Yusheng would be able to make a delicacy he expected. Lin Xiazhi was looking forward to the pancake fruit.
Sure enough, as Yang Yusheng said, within two days, the pancakes were freshly baked. After he made them in Lin's house, he immediately personally sent a hot one to Cheng's house.
"Brother Xia, how does it taste?" Yang Yusheng looked at Lin Xiazhi expectantly.
This is the fourth one made today. He tasted the first one himself and thought it was okay. The second one was given to Li Xiu, and the third one was given to Lin Huzi. Both of them were full of praise.
Lin Xiazhi smelled it first, and it coincided with the smell in his memory.
Bite down, the outermost layer of pancakes is a little bit burnt, and a thin layer of eggs is spread inside, with the unique softness of eggs in the burnt aroma, and a piece of fried fruit and freshly made meat floss are placed inside, Soft and crispy, with a slice of lettuce washed and brushed with a special sauce, the fragrance of the vegetables is tinged with the sauce, and the texture and taste are very rich, even better than the best pancake fruit in Lin Xiazhi's memory!
"Delicious!" Lin Xiazhi swallowed the first bite, raised his head to express his feelings, and then continued to eat hard. After eating a whole pancake, he let out a satisfied sigh.
