After rebirth, dominate the courtyard

Chapter 29: Attempted Treasure Steal

Trying to steal treasure? How can it be done so easily?

A strange aroma filled the air, as if it had traveled through time and space, awakening the hunger in my stomach. The moment I stepped into the courtyard, I happened to meet Li Aimin who was performing the fire-making technique. The hot spiritual energy surged out from the bottom of the pot, interweaving with a unique and rich scent!

"What kind of fragrance is this, so tempting!" Jia Zhang was immediately attracted by the fragrance as she stepped into the door. She swallowed lightly and murmured.

She hadn't tasted meat for a long time, and when she smelled such a fragrance, her stomach immediately responded with a low growl. This fragrance was too intoxicating, and just smelling it made her mouth water!

"Shazhu, do you smell it?" Jia Zhang asked in a low voice.

"I smell it. What on earth did he put in there? Why is there such a fragrance?" Sha Zhu took a deep breath, trying to identify the secret hidden in the pot. However, the fragrance made him unable to figure it out for a moment.

As a chef, he knew the taste of various ingredients and seasonings very well. But at this moment, this aroma seemed strange to him and he couldn't identify its source.

"It tastes quite refreshing, but what kind of seasoning is that?" Sha Zhu whispered as he savored the aroma.

"Forget it, the stew I will cook later will be no less delicious than his!" After thinking for a moment and failing to figure out the secret, Sha Zhu shook his head, but a confident smile appeared on his face.

"Then I'll be waiting to taste your stew." Jia Zhang looked at Li Aimin's pot, her eyes flickering with desire. After all, the aroma was extraordinary.

"Don't worry, the meat I cook is definitely not worse than Li Aimin's!" Sha Zhu said proudly. This came from his confidence in his cooking skills.

Soon, Sha Zhu came to Qin Huairu's house carrying the pork he had just bought from the Spirit Beast Market. Bang Geng was drooling as he watched Li Aimin stewing the meat through the window.

Seeing Shazhu coming in with a lot of bags, Banggeng was delighted. He quickly wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said excitedly: "It's great to have meat to eat."

"Look how excited you are, come and call me grandpa!" Sha Zhu joked as he looked at Bang Geng who was running towards him.

As soon as these words came out, Qin Huairu, who was looking forward to eating meat, froze in her smile. This name was a pain in her heart.

Unexpectedly, Sha Zhu accidentally touched her sensitive spot. Bang Geng didn't know what to do for a moment because in Bang Geng's opinion, he used to call Sha Zhu at most uncle, and Sha Zhu didn't look older than his mother.

Call him grandpa directly? This caught him off guard.

Seeing this, Jia Zhang hurried to ease the atmosphere: "My dear grandson, according to the family tree, Sha Zhu is your grandfather. Call him Grandpa, and you will have meat to eat later."

Jia Dongxu, who was paralyzed in bed, almost fainted from anger when he heard these words. This title was also a thorn in his heart. He was already dissatisfied with Sha Zhu, and although it was a foregone conclusion now, he still found it hard to accept it.

Just like a friend who used to play with him suddenly became his grandfather? Jia Dongxu sighed, closed his eyes, and two lines of tears slid down from the corners of his eyes.

Speaking of Bang Geng, after hearing grandma say this, he hesitated for a moment and finally shouted: "Grandpa...Grandpa!"

"Hey! Grandson, you are Jia Zhang's grandson, and from now on, you are also my grandson." Sha Zhu responded cheerfully, obviously very happy.

"Grandpa will stew meat for you later!" Sha Zhu looked at Bang Geng and said with a smile on his face.

"Great, we can finally eat stewed meat." Bang Geng said excitedly, "Grandpa, I just saw Li Aimin put the black thing at the door into the pot when he was stewing meat!"

"What a nice smell!" Banggeng pointed at the black object at Li Aimin's door with a longing look on his face.

"Black stuff?" When Sha Zhu heard this, he immediately became curious. He had long been surprised by the aroma of the stewed meat, but had never been able to identify what kind of food it was.

He looked in the direction of Banggeng's finger and saw a field of black seaweed.

"How could they add such ingredients into the pot?" Sha Zhu muttered to himself. As a chef, he knew the combination of various ingredients and knew the effect of each ingredient when paired together.

However, faced with the aroma of Li Aimin's stewed meat, he was surprised that he could not tell what ingredients were used this time.

Looking at the object the stick pointed to, he had an idea in his mind - to use that object to stew meat. But thinking of his relationship with Li Aimin, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​borrowing it. Even if he asked for it, he probably wouldn't get it.

Rather than asking for a loan, it is better not to mention it.

"I see Li Aimin has used some of it, so he probably doesn't need it anymore recently." Sha Zhu thought.

\"How about we only stew half of the meat this time, and let Banggeng quietly bring the other half over when Li Aimin isn't paying attention." Jia Zhang suggested, with a hint of mystery in her mysterious tone.

\"This...\" Sha Zhu was in a dilemma for a moment. If he was discovered, wouldn't he be considered a thief?

\"Oh, don't worry. We will just say we didn't see it. It will have already entered our stomachs by then. Can we still have someone cut open our stomachs and check?"\"

Jia Zhang looked calm. This kind of thing was commonplace to her and she could handle it with ease.

\"Yeah, I'll get it when no one in the compound is paying attention!\"

Bang Geng heard this and responded excitedly. The aroma of that thing combined with the stewed meat was really mouth-watering!

\"Okay, then we have to eat it cleanly and leave no traces!\"

Sha Zhu pondered for a moment and finally agreed to the plan. He was also curious about what the black thing was and how it could make the stew so fragrant. Moreover, the market had never seen this thing before, so what was it...

\"Now stew this half piece of pork first!\"

\"The other half, wait until Bangteng gets that thing and then stew it!\"

After Shazhu finished speaking, he took the pork out of his pocket and placed it on the table beside him, then took out a knife and cut the pork into two halves. One half would be eaten today, and the other half would be left for stewing after Banggeng quietly brought the mysterious thing over in the afternoon!

However, they didn't know that Li Aimin had already anticipated this scene.

......

Li Aimin was stewing meat, but he didn't know that the "kelp" at the door had already attracted the covetousness of others!

Enchanting scent!!!!

Looking at the aroma wafting from the pot, Li Aimin's face flashed with joy. This was exactly the taste enjoyment he was pursuing. When kelp and meat are stewed together, kelp is the soul that enhances the taste and makes the aroma of the meat more intense!

\"It's almost done. We'll be able to eat soon.\"

Li Aimin looked at the pork in the pot and smiled. At this time, Lou Xiaoe was also attracted by the aroma, because this aroma was unusual and very different from the stewed meat in the compound in the past. In the past, the stewed meat in the compound was mostly made with seasonings and pork, and the cooking methods were ordinary and the taste was almost the same.

But this time it was different. Li Aimin added a piece of kelp into the pot, which acted like a catalyst, bringing out the aroma deep in the meat.

\"What a nice smell!\"

Lou Xiao'e looked at the stew that was about to be served, with an excited smile on her face. She had never tasted stew cooked in this way before, especially the unique aroma, which was far better than any stew she had tasted before.

\"Of course, this time I added my secret seasoning to the stew." Li Aimin explained with a smile.

\"It will be ready soon. Go get a basin and prepare the meat.\"

\"Okay, I'll get ready right away.\"

Hearing that the meat was almost ready, Lou Xiao'e was overjoyed and hurriedly prepared the tools, looking forward to this kelp stew. Just the aroma made her feel that the taste would definitely not be bad.

After Lou Xiao'e prepared the pot, the aroma of the meat in the pot became stronger. Li Aimin checked the time and it was almost time to serve. Then he opened the lid of the pot, and a strong aroma of meat instantly filled the air.

\"Wow, it smells so good.\"

As soon as the lid of the pot was opened, Lou Xiao'e smelled the aroma and said excitedly, "This aroma makes people's appetite increase greatly."

\"How does it taste?" Li Aimin smiled.

\"Um.\"

Then, Lou Xiao'e picked up a piece of pork with chopsticks and started to taste it.

\"It tastes just right." After tasting it, Lou Xiao'e's face was full of excitement. This pork was the most delicious she had ever eaten, without comparison.

\"As long as it tastes good, let's serve the meat first."\"

As Li Aimin spoke, he picked up a spoon and scooped out the pork one by one. As he began to scoop the meat, the aroma from the pot became more and more fragrant, and the aroma of pork in the courtyard became stronger.

\"Grandpa, their stewed pork is so delicious, I want to eat it too."

Bang Geng smelled the increasingly strong aroma, swallowed his saliva, and said, "This aroma is too tempting. Just by smelling it, you can tell that this dish is cooked very successfully."

Sha Zhu, who was cutting vegetables, couldn't help but think to himself at this moment.

\"Is this pork stewed with that black stuff really that delicious?\"

Sha Zhu stared at Li Aimin who was fishing for meat, full of curiosity.
