Demon King's Bather

This season is the fattest season for big snails, a local specialty of Qinghu City. Not an hour after the housekeeper went out, a group of servants came in outside, carrying various bamboo baskets and buckets in their hands and shoulders. River snails, river crabs, fresh fish, freshwater prawns and other various kinds of fish, as well as a big fat sheep that was slaughtered and rinsed, and a well-preserved century-old wild ginseng, and other medicinal herbs for strengthening the body. Most of the kitchen.

"Let the kitchen staff go to rest from today. From now on, we will cook the meals in our yard by ourselves, as long as you deliver the ingredients on time every day." Yu Chunlai ordered, "Oh, by the way, I have to trouble the butler, Go back and buy a thousand catties of white rice and a thousand catties of fine noodles, our monsters eat a lot, such a small amount of food is estimated to be enough for ten days, if it is not enough, add more, anyway, the prince has plenty of silver!"

The housekeeper who was following behind looked pale. He felt that he had to write an urgent secret report to their lord. This group of shameless monsters has been ruined.

When Yu Chunlai saw the constipated face of the housekeeper who said "I'm so angry but I still have to keep smiling", I couldn't help but feel a little bit darker.You accomplices who bullied my aunt!I can't cure you, my lord. Isn't it a piece of cake to cure you?He, Yu Chunlai, has always been an extremely protective person, he dared to bully his mother's only sister, he was courting death!

"Wait! Mr. Steward, order someone to buy a batch of silver frost charcoal and come back. This charcoal is burning and choking people. My aunt is not in good health, how can I be so negligent?"

The housekeeper staggered and almost fell into the lotus pond next to him. After a while, he turned around, gritted his teeth and saluted, "I'll order someone to do it!"

These beasts!It really is a barbaric race without etiquette!

You don't know how to be polite when you are a guest at someone's house, so you still pick and choose?Silver Frost Charcoal?Only the nobles in the imperial city can afford it. Although it's okay for the concubine to use it, who would cook with silver frost charcoal?Where is this burning charcoal?It's burning money!

Yu Chunlai looked at the back of the butler leaving in anger with a smile, isn't he just burning money?Anyway, it wasn't his silver that was burned.

Greeted a group of monsters to help process the ingredients, fresh large snails, soaked in a little light salt water and spit out the dirt and sediment inside, when eating, add shredded ginger, pepper, bean paste, shallots, etc. Stir-fry is a good dish for appetizers - fried snails with sauce.

Fresh river prawns are stir-fried with chicken oil, shredded ginger, bean paste, and shallots, add water and simmer until cooked. When they come out of the pan, beat three eggs and stir them evenly on top.

Crabs as big as a disc, you can tell at a glance that only wealthy families like the Wangfu can buy them. Wash them and cut them in half, remove the internal organs, crack the crab claws with the back of a knife, and use an appropriate amount of salt and cornstarch to crush the crabs. Mix well and marinate for a while, then fry in oil pan until the crab shell turns red, remove and set aside.

Then leave two tablespoons of oil in the pot, add ginger, garlic, onion, dried chili, Chinese prickly ash, and bean paste and fry until fragrant. Put the fried crab back into the pot and stir fry, then add potato strips, celery and other ingredients, and add appropriate amount of water Simmer for a while, add seasonings before serving, thicken the sauce, sprinkle with fried sesame seeds and peanuts, and a delicious spicy crab is ready.

Fresh river fish, sliced ​​into fish fillets, made a spicy fish fillet, a fish fillet stewed with scallion oil, the fish head was made into a chopped pepper fish head, and the large pieces of fish were braised in soy sauce, with bursts of tempting fresh fragrance Even Bai Ling couldn't sit still when the news came out from the small kitchen.

Monsters have a lot of food, but Bai Ling has been depressed before, and the delicate and small things made by the chefs of the palace really don't suit her appetite, so her appetite has always been poor, and she eats little. Seeing the spicy and appetizing taste of the food, I became even more curious about Yu Chunlai, this nephew.

In the eyes of the world, a gentleman cooks far away, and Bai Ling can't imagine what happened to make her nephew cook such good dishes.Because of being busy before, I never found a chance to ask about Bai Zhi's sister's situation. Now that I'm finally free and there are no outsiders around (all the waiters were driven to the yard by Yu Chunlai to feed the mosquitoes), Bai Ling ate Yu Chunlai Specially stewed fish soup for himself, while asking him about his family and his sister.

Yu Chunlai didn't hide it from her, and he told his mother all these years of being dependent on each other, and finally his mother died of a serious illness, and he also followed his stepfather to live in the Great Barren Mountain.

He himself didn't feel so sad, but Bai Ling stopped several times in the middle, and touched his thin and thin body with pity. Hearing what happened when Bai Zhi passed away, Bai Ling was also a little relieved when he was sad——

"Little fish, you did a good job. It's the best that your mother's body was not devoured by other monsters." Bai Ling patted the back of Yu Chunlai's hand in relief, "I'll recover in a few days. Come with me to see your mother."

"Okay, then you can take a rest." Sensing that Bai Ling was a little tired after a big grief, Yu Chunlai took down the dinner plate, served Bai Ling to lie down and rest.

His Royal Highness the Demon King fiddled with the delicacies on the table without taste, but the cat slave was not around, so it was not a taste to eat anything.Damn it, other demons leave their families and live alone as soon as they reach adulthood, why does his cat slave like to cause trouble so much?It's a cub and an aunt. If the mother is still here, maybe the cat slave will continue to live with his mother, right?

When can I marry the cat slave back to the cave?

** Whispering, Yu Chunlai came in with the removed dinner plate, Bai Ling had a bad appetite, and only moved a little of each dish, Yu Chunlai was used to frugality, so he wanted to fold these leftovers together to warm himself up Just eat it.It was the same at home before, the best ones were given to Baizhi first, and after Baizhi finished eating, Yu Chunlai would eat it hot, so nothing was wasted.

However, His Highness the Demon King doesn't think so.

"You actually ate the leftovers from that civet?!" The enraged His Royal Highness the Demon King seemed to want to smash the stove.

"Your Highness, that's my aunt!" Yu Chunlai helplessly hugged the furry cat His Highness Shun Mao. There was no one in the kitchen, and he held the familiar fur ball in his arms. Only then could he reveal his hidden exhaustion and helplessness, and buried his head Rubbing in the warm fluff of His Highness the Demon King, a muffled voice came out from the fluff——

"Your Highness, I feel that I am really useless! I can't save my mother, nor can I save my aunt... I can't even beat Xiaobai in a fight."

This is his most frustrating part, because he has no way to cultivate, he can't even beat the strong men in the ordinary mortal world, let alone the monsters in the Great Barren Mountain and those monks with great powers?In this world, he is the existence at the bottom of the food chain. This kind of powerlessness does not even require hard work, because it is completely useless.

"Who said that? You did a good job in kidnapping last time. No other monster can do it. You are the most powerful kidnapping and extorting monster in Dahuangshan!" His Royal Highness the Demon King had no choice but to transform into a human form, and took the dejected cat slave into the room. In his arms, he patted his overly thin back. This stupid slave, it seems that no matter how much he eats, he won't gain weight. Could it be that he is sick?

Yu Chunlai was "lightly" patted twice by His Majesty Mao, and he almost vomited blood without being patted by him. He quickly straightened his chest "strongly", and took the opportunity to escape from His Majesty's arms. This His Highness is indeed a native of the Great Barren Mountain Monsters, even comforting people, are so simple and rude...

However, Yu Chunlai was still very moved. In the past, no matter what difficulties he encountered, he was alone. Now, finally, there is someone, no, a demon, who is willing to listen and accompany him through the difficulties. The feeling, I have to say, is really great!Although the back seems to have been shot green.

Wait~ What do you mean by "You are the most powerful demon who kidnaps and extorts in Dahuangshan"?

After being moved, Yu Chunlai belatedly thought of the words His Royal Highness the Demon King said to "comfort" him just now, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times. Kidnapping and extorting horses is illegal, right?If it wasn't for those demon hunting monks who went into the mountains to catch cubs and adult demons to sell, how could he come up with the trick of kidnapping and extorting, turning those traffickers into meat tickets for money?

He is a law-abiding citizen! ! !

Silently complaining in his heart about His Royal Highness the Demon King's comforting scumbag skills, the slight sadness in Yu Chunlai's heart has long since disappeared. After digging out half a bowl of rice, he simply ate a few mouthfuls of the leftovers that were heated in the pot. The kitchen was left to the servants in the yard who were called waiters, but in fact they were watching and guarding. Yu Chunlai took His Highness the Demon King to the lotus pond in the backyard to pick lotus leaves.

Qinghu City is a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. Just this other courtyard of the Wangfu, there is a small hillside and a pond with running water behind the main courtyard. There are half ponds of lotus planted in the pond. The fish play in the lower reaches of the lotus leaves, and the mandarin ducks sleep together. It's a beautiful view.

In the view of the cook, this is also a good place of origin of ingredients: lotus root is full of treasures, lotus leaves can be used to make lotus leaf tea, stewed lotus leaf soup, and lotus leaf rice, lotus root stems can be used to stir fry, and the lotus leaves The lotus seeds are even more delicious, and the lotus seeds can be used to make tea to remove heat, and the lotus root buried in the mud is a versatile delicacy that can be fried and stewed...

As for the koi in the lotus pond, Yu Chunlai had never eaten it before, so he decided to tell the housekeeper to replace all the koi in the pond with plump fish and shrimp, such as carp, grass carp, and fat-headed fish. Yes, they can be fished and killed at any time, and the food is very fresh, which is much more cost-effective than raising koi.

Mandarin ducks... Okay!He hasn't eaten this either, so it's better to replace them with ducks and big white geese.

Yu Chunlai has never had a birthday, but according to the date of birth registered in the household registration book, he should be considered a Scorpio. This constellation, according to those beauties in the night market who like to study astrology, is a very vengeful constellation. Not only that, For Scorpio people, what is it to hold grudges?The vengeance they wrote down can only be considered as retribution if they have all reported it. They are simply walking avenging angels!

Although Yu Chunlai couldn't use force to retaliate against the enemy as fiercely and coolly as His Royal Highness the Demon King, but killing people with soft knives is just as terrifying. He decided to use practical actions to transform the luxurious courtyard of His Royal Highness the Regent into one. Very rustic...farmhouse!
