Mr. Minguo's kitchen

Cuckoo cuckoo, it's better to go back.

"Bugu..." In the grassy courtyard, three or two birds stopped on the branches that had just sprouted at some point, and a little potato squatted under the tree, looking up at the birds from time to time, silently playing with mud in his hands, mouth Li also imitated birdsong in a low voice.

"Has he always been like this?" Not far away, the elegant and tall young man who changed into light-colored casual clothes, which is very inconsistent with this classical courtyard, asked Ah Fu who was beside him. little man.

"Master, alas, it seems that the second room can't accommodate you and the young master now, and I'm not afraid to tell you. You don't know, the young master has not received any good treatment since he was born in the mansion. The children in the house dare to bully him. The people in the house are all family stars and bastards. The second wife and the others have never even given a proper name. Although the second wife did not treat him harshly on the surface, but without her connivance, Xiao Can the young master grow into what he is now? But now that you are back, I hope they will not dare to bully the young master so blatantly again."

"You call him Young Master?"

Ah Fu: "Hey, young master, don't listen to the nonsense of the second room and the people outside. It's all speculation. If you have nothing to do, you will ruin people. The young master must be the master's seed, but he was born a few days earlier. It was rumored like this. Among other things, the birthmark under the young master's buttocks is exactly the same as the master's!"

Lin Weirui looked at him with indescribable eyes: "..."

Ah Fu: "Ahem, my father told me this!" Ah Fu's father was the person who served the elder of the Lin family in his early years.The birthmarks of Master Lin and Young Master Lin are like red birds, no wonder Ah Fu and his father remembered them.

Young Master Lin had no intention of expressing his opinion on Ah Fu and his father's hobbies, but changed the subject, "When did mother leave?"

"Back to the young master, just... at the beginning it was fine, and then I don't know who said that the young master is not the master's seed, and it spread like crazy outside, the rumors became more and more outrageous, and the eldest lady had no choice but to go to the temple to rest for a while After a while, one day I suddenly went back to the Lin Mansion to pack my things, and was picked up by a car."

Ah Fu saw that the young master was staring at the cuckoo on the treetop in the distance without saying a word, and asked nervously, "Master, do you really want to agree to split the family?"

Lin Weirui sneered: "Why not?"

It is said that it is necessary to divide the family, and it cannot be divided within a day. First, the elders of the clan must be approved, and then one by one must be invited to be witnesses. Some elders who happen to have a schedule are not in Xiangcheng. , can only wait for everyone.After that, the division of family property is also a tough battle to fight.

Lin Weirui is no longer Wuxia Amon in the past. In the past, he could grow from an orphan to become famous all over the world. With his skills, he was sought after by the whole world. Now he is naturally not easy to dismiss.It should be his, it is his.

This morning passed so peacefully. Ah Fu was sent out by his young master to investigate the surrounding fields, which households they belong to, and the annual harvest. What's even more strange is that he focused on seeing if there are any large fields near Xiangcheng. farmland for sale.Although he couldn't figure out what his young master was going to do, Ah Fu still bowed his hands and went out to inquire about the news.

But Young Master Lin in the Lin Mansion, after asking the servants where the kitchen was, rolled up his shirt sleeves gracefully, and leisurely began to wash his hands and make soup.In the Hongmen Banquet just now, only a bowl of noodle soup suits his appetite, so he still has to do it himself if he wants to offer sacrifices to the five internal organs.Since becoming capable, Lin Weirui has never treated herself badly again, whether it's in her luggage or her tongue, even if she changes places.

As the youngest of the Lin family in the past, and still in the gluttonous family, the courtyard naturally has its own small kitchen.However, after Lin's father left, the second room of the Lin family gained power, so although the name of the small kitchen survived, there was nothing in it. During the period when the owner was away, the small kitchen became a place for the servants to make food.

Lin Weirui swept around the stove, and finally, under the trembling eyes of the cook, picked up a few hairy crabs that were randomly placed in the bamboo basket, and shook away a handful of green onions, coriander, and white mushrooms.The autumn wind is blowing, and the crab legs are itchy. It is still April, which is not the fattest season for hairy crabs, but because they grow so much and are nutritious, no one fishes them, so they are all pretty big.In the eyes of the people at the time, this kind of food that was difficult to eat without a few liang of meat, except for some old people, was mostly poor people who could not eat enough to fish it from the river and cook it casually to satisfy their hunger.

The terrified cook, who didn't know why the master entered the kitchen and did it herself, just watched the young master cook the hideous and cute hairy crabs one by one with a pair of hands like an artist, digging out the crab meat and crab roe completely.Then he chopped the other ingredients into cubes, and then opened the lid of the porridge pot that had been cooked before the cook arrived.

I don't know when it started to rain again outside. The sky in April is always so misty and rainy.The moment the pot lid was lifted in the kitchen, bursts of steam rose like white mist.Followed by a burst of strange fragrance, as if mistakenly dyed the spring colors outside the window, green willow leaves, pink peach blossoms.The cook who was still hesitating to speak but stopped pulling the bellows beside her didn't know when she became demented. I don't know if it was her illusion, but she could feel the earthy smell of spring and the fragrance of grass and trees from the pot of rice porridge in front of her.

Just when she was still surprised, Lin Weirui had already poured the crab meat and crab roe into the boiling porridge, and the pair of white jade hands held the handle of the spoon and stirred slowly until the small pieces of pink crab meat in the pot were completely detached into silk and free in the rice porridge Blend with the distinct grains of crab roe, then add minced white mushrooms, minced green onion and chopped coriander, simply blend and serve.

"Give me a bowl."

As soon as she heard the young master's order, the cook forcibly pulled her gaze away from the bowl of crab soup, and quickly handed over a pink and white porcelain bowl.This is a perfect contrast to the crab soup in the pot. The pink and tender crab meat looming in the blue and white is like the pink lotus blooming in a lotus leaf. It is fresh and refined. Of course, the point is that the taste alone is fascinating.

Lin Weirui took the bowl and left, and naturally someone behind him cleaned up the kitchen for him.Crossing the threshold, I met a small potato that was drenched in soup at the door of the kitchen.His face is very thin, so his eyes are even more big. At this moment, he is staring at the things on Lin Weirui's tray, obviously swallowing saliva in his throat.Ever since he got a cheap younger brother at the dinner table, no one else could see what attitude the young master had towards him. They said that the young master had a good attitude, but the young master never said a word to the young master, and he didn't scold him badly.

However, the little one could see that he was afraid of his elder brother, or he was afraid of everyone around him, so he started to hide when he saw this strange "brother" in front of him.

Lin Weirui stared at the disheveled potato in front of Ban Xing who looked like a little potato that had just been dug out of the ground, and said, "Pour him the bowl, and then help him take a bath, it's dirty." When the child heard the latter sentence, he suddenly shivered .Lin Weirui ignored him, turned around and went back to her room.

The kitchen looked at the young master who was going away, and then looked at the young master who was standing in front of her eagerly. He was actually looking at the crab soup in the pot. He swallowed and wanted to ask: "Young master, can you let me Taste a little too!

Scooped a bowl of crab soup for the young master, the cook watched him gobble it up, handed him the empty bowl after three meals, drooling and brought him another bowl.What kind of fairy delicacy is this, it really kills me!I want to eat!It's not that I haven't used crabs to make porridge before. How come I never knew that crabs, which were originally cheap, were so fragrant? !I have never heard that the young master can cook before, it is indeed a family tradition!

Suck~ The cook saw that there was quite a lot left in the pot. The eldest master only served a bowl, and the young master must not be able to finish that much. I took a bowl, scooped it up carefully, the first mouthful, the tip of my tongue trembled, the feeling of spring in my mouth, really, really, so delicious.

It looked like a child who hadn’t eaten in 800 years and was burying his head in drinking soup. He vigilantly surrounded the pot on the stove with his short arms. The cook smiled awkwardly and hid in another place to eat. went.As for the matter that because she ate this bowl of crab soup, everything she ate in the next few days was tasteless, and she was looking forward to her eldest son cooking again, so I put it aside.

Here, Lin Weirui drank a bowl of crab soup contentedly, read the books he would bring back from abroad, and planned to take a nap after thinking about what he would do soon.Little Tudou, who had already changed into clean clothes outside, thought he was quietly scratching the crack of the door, and then tiptoed in when he saw that the people inside were quiet.Lin Weirui didn't actually fall asleep, she didn't know what Little Tudou wanted to do, and she wasn't very interested, so she just continued to rest with her eyes closed.

And Little Tudou was still secretly observing Lin Weirui, staring at Lin Weirui, and was also sleepy. He swayed from side to side, slammed softly, and fell on his side on the soft brocade quilt, curled up on the pedal beside the walking shaker. I also fell asleep.Lin Weirui opened her clear eyes, sighed, lifted the little potato underneath, put it at the end of the bed, covered him with a quilt, and then fell asleep herself.

In the quiet afternoon, the head of the family in the west was busy contacting the elders, but the two masters in the courtyard in the east fell asleep as if they were not aware of it.The window was not closed tightly, and the rain outside hit the window lattice, making a slight noise, and the book on the table was flipped through by the breeze, and "Experiment on Hybridization of Plants" was printed on the page.

The faint light warmly covers the eyelids.Where does the sunshine come from on a rainy day?Lin Weirui opened his eyelids and stared at the foggy "sky" above his head. He was no longer panicked as if he had come to this place for the first time.Standing up unhurriedly, Lin Weirui patted the dirt on her body, and went to the cabin in her memory.

After falling asleep for the first time, she appeared here for no reason, a few days after Lin Weirui came to this world.At that time, he thought that he had crossed for the second time, but later he found that he could go back and shuttle between the two spaces irregularly.I don't know where this place I came to by accident, Lin Weirui didn't search to the end, but found a wooden board similar to a landmark nearby, with strange symbols engraved on it, which looked like Chinese characters.

The world here is always gray, but this kind of gray is not the gray of the cloudy sky, but rather hazy like the chaos of all things at the beginning, with a slight skylight.It's never dark here -- it's clearly not on Earth.The strange thing is that there is no trace of human habitation here, only a field of fertile soil with no end in sight, and unknown crops grow wildly on it.

A small stream spreads along the field path and converges into a small emerald green pond not far away with water mist, and beside it is a sycamore tree that almost reaches the sky. It is tall, but it is nothing to see. There are only a few isolated branches.

Five years ago, after coming to this place for the first time, Lin Weirui, who thought he had strayed into the wilderness because he could not find any traces of people, built the only house in the world—a simple log cabin—by ​​using a variety of local unknown trees.

Lin Weirui came slowly to the small wooden house. In front of the wooden house was a field ridge that was relatively neat compared to the surrounding area. The wheat and rice that Lin Weirui brought from outside were planted.By chance, he found that the taste and quality of the things grown here were better than those in the other world outside, so when he was thrown here by his sleep, he took the time to reclaim a small piece of wasteland and plant them. It's harvest time again.

Lin Weirui is not suitable for doing farm work, so she was tired and paralyzed after harvesting the crops, but she persisted in coming to the small pond, washed her face, and soaked her feet downstream, and her fatigue was relieved by half.It's such an amazing place.Lin Weirui didn't know how many times she verified it in her heart.
