Kaifeng House Small Dining Table

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Zhao Hanyan couldn't bear it anymore, his eyes were bent into a crescent shape, looking at Bai Yutang with watery eyes, covering his mouth and shaking with laughter.

Bai Yutang's cheeks were slightly red, and he wanted to ask Zhao Hanyan 'what's so funny' when he was bumped suddenly.

Although there are many people on the street of Wazi, the road is wide and not so crowded that two people collide.Bai Yutang slightly frowned and looked at the person who bumped into him. He was a Taoist priest in his forties, with his eyes closed, holding the curtain with the word "fortune-telling" in one hand, apologizing to himself repeatedly.

"Little brother, don't take offense. I'm blind, I can't see, I can't see, I accidentally bumped into it by mistake. Sorry! Sorry!"

"Blind?" Bai Yutang took another look at him deliberately.

Zhao Hanyan smiled and advised Bai Yutang to leave, "He can't see, so we don't care about him."

When Zhao Hanyan was speaking, the Taoist turned his head deliberately and pointed his ears in Zhao Hanyan's direction, obviously listening to Zhao Hanyan's speech attentively.

"Girl, the tea smell on your body is very good, it smells a hundred times better than those vulgar powders on the street."

Zhao Hanyan was stunned when he heard the word 'girl', looked at the blind Taoist priest, and quickly glanced at Bai Yutang for a reaction.

Bai Yutang kept looking at the Taoist priest with a cold face, but didn't pay attention to her side.Zhao Hanyan's heart began to pound rapidly, strange, why didn't Bai Yutang respond at all, could it be that he had seen through her daughter long ago?

The hairs all over Zhao Hanyan's body stood on end, and his heart rose to his throat.She didn't speak, she was afraid that she would not be a man because she lost control due to panic and couldn't make a male voice.She has definitely never seen this Taoist priest before, so he suddenly said that she is a girl, maybe there is something tricky, let's wait and see what happens.

"The fragrance of tea is good, but I heard that the girl's smile is sweet and her face is full of peach blossoms. Girls have to be careful recently. There are more than one rotten peach blossoms coming to your door. Girls, don't worry that I am cheating money, I don't charge money , I just kindly remind the girl that the rotten peach blossoms are coming, so be careful, this woman's marriage is a matter of a lifetime, and she chooses the wrong person for a lifetime." The blind Taoist continued to talk endlessly.

Zhao Hanyan quickly stabilized his mind, and then listened to the Taoist's later words, curled his lips and sneered, and did not speak.

Bai Yutang was blind to the Taoist from the beginning to the end.

After the blind Taoist priest finished speaking, he waited for a long while, but he didn't hear anything, and deliberately pricked up his ears in the direction of Zhao Hanyan's original voice.

"Are you... are you still there?" the blind Taoist asked tentatively.

"Yes, it depends how long you pretend." Bai Yutang said coldly.

The blind Taoist was stunned for a moment, and smiled awkwardly: "I don't understand what this benefactor is talking about."

"You're blind, how can you tell that the 'girl' has peach blossoms on her face?" Bai Yutang asked.

The blind Taoist was stunned for a while again. Feeling Bai Yutang's approaching step by step, he took a few steps back with a smirk, "Feeling, feeling. Although I can't see with my eyes, I have opened my eyes, and I can feel the pain in the bodies of all benefactors." All kinds of 'Qi'."

"Taoist, you dropped your purse!" After Zhao Hanyan finished speaking, he weighed his purse, making the sound of silver coins colliding.

"Ah?" The Taoist quickly opened his eyes to look for the money bag, and met Bai Yutang's icy eyes.

"Get lost." Bai Yutang grabbed the knife and sent it to the 'blind' Taoist priest, who was so frightened that he threw away the curtain in his hand, turned around and ran away.

Zhao Hanyan looked at the Taoist priest who was running away, and his heart fell steadily, but he also wondered how the Taoist priest could tell that she was a woman at a glance.Could it be that they really have eyes of heaven?And he just said that he committed a crime...

"Liar, don't bother, let's go." Bai Yutang said.

"Aren't you surprised why he called me a girl?" Zhao Hanyan asked tentatively.

Bai Yutang laughed, "Liars have many tricks, and these people have the same methods. At first, you say something that shocks you, which makes you want to argue with him, and then gradually lures you into it, and finally pays the money obediently."

Zhao Hanyan's heart calmed down completely, and he laughed and said, "So that's the case, it seems that I have little knowledge. The world is dangerous!"

"This is just the city of Tokyo, and it's not really Jianghu. It's dangerous when you really go out." Bai Yutang stared at Zhao Hanyan, "At that time, remember to bring your grilled fish and call your big brother Bai, and you'll be safe. .”

Zhao Hanyan was startled, and then realized that Bai Yutang's so-called "your big brother Bai" was referring to himself.

"From then on, I will be taken care of by Brother Bai!" Zhao Hanyan made a quack gesture to Bai Yutang in a decent manner, and cooperated.

Zhao Hanyan asked Bai Yutang again how he had discovered that the Taoist priest was blind from the very beginning.Because Zhao Hanyan just realized it now, when Bai Yutang first heard the Taoist say that he was blind, he didn't believe him, and asked a question on purpose.

"When he bumped into me, he closed his eyes very hard, afraid that he would open them. A truly blind person would not do this," Bai Yutang explained.

"So it is."

Zhao Hanyan admired Bai Yutang's dexterity, he could accurately grasp even such a momentary reaction, and his observation ability was so meticulous.This incident taught her that she must be 120% careful in front of Bai Yutang in the future.

The two then went to the fish shop to pick up four of the fattest big carps and went back. Bai Yutang wanted to help with the fish, but Zhao Hanyan refused again.

"I was not allowed to take it last time, but this time again." Bai Yutang couldn't hold back, and turned over the 'old accounts'.

Zhao Hanyan remembered that last time Xiuzhu misunderstood that Bai Yutang didn't mention anything.If you tell Bai Yutang that you don't give him fish to keep him beautiful, he will definitely not be happy.Since he insisted, Zhao Hanyan reluctantly distributed two fish to Bai Yutang.

The handsome and handsome young man in white clothes, with a fish in his left hand and a fish in his right hand, just walks around, which is really eye-catching.

Walking this way back, it attracted the eyes of many men and women.Most of the women are appreciation and admiration, while most of the men are envy, jealousy and hatred.The two fish were also exposed, which increased their exposure a lot.Some people even used fish as an excuse to ask Bai Yutang specifically.

"Little brother, this fish is really fat. Can you tell me where to buy it? We also want to buy it." A group of brave women came to strike up a conversation.

Zhao Hanyan felt that the atmosphere was good, and happily watched from the sidelines.

Bai Yutang glanced sideways at Zhao Hanyan, and said coldly to the two women who approached him, "Ask him, I'm not in charge."

After all, he flew away with two fish in his hand, still looking chic.

The two women who struck up a conversation were stunned for a moment, and then looked at another young man in a plain green robe with a fish in his arms. He was also handsome, although not as beautiful as the one just now, but he was still pretty.It's just that the figure is slightly thinner, slimmer than some women.In this way, I went back and carefully pondered the deep meaning in the words of the beautiful boy in white just now, "Ask him, I'm not in charge of the family".

Two beautiful teenagers of about the same age are shopping together, and one of them is the head of the house...

"Ah, sister, they can't be—" One of the women who approached her covered her mouth in shock.

The other woman reacted when she heard the words, and immediately covered her mouth in shock, looked at Zhao Hanyan in surprise, and immediately dragged her sister away as if hiding from the plague.As they walked, they muttered something with fearful expressions, and turned their heads from time to time, taking a special look at Zhao Hanyan with strange eyes.

Of course Zhao Hanyan understood what they were thinking, and smiled at them generously: "Do you want to eat fish together?"

The two girls shrank their necks in fright, and they didn't dare to look blindly anymore, and ran away in a hurry together, as if they had seen a ghost.

Zhao Hanyan looked back at the white figure waiting for him in the distance, and rushed over in a hurry.

"What nonsense did you just say?" Straight men generally don't like to make such jokes, so she has to show anger, very angry.

Zhao Hanyan tried his best to make his eyes round, and they must not be more round.

Bai Yutang felt that Zhao Hanyan's eyes were very similar to those of the fish he was carrying, so he couldn't help laughing, and asked Zhao Hanyan what was wrong.

"Those two girls thought we—" Seeing Bai Yutang staring at her, Zhao Hanyan was at a loss for words.Everyone is a 'straight man', so it's better to avoid such words as "broken sleeves" and "Mr. Rabbit".

So, Zhao Hanyan asked in a different way: "Why did you say that I was in charge just now?"

"You are the head of the kitchen. You are in charge of buying and cooking fish. I said what's wrong with you being in charge of the house?" Bai Yutang asked innocently, and then asked what Zhao Hanyan wanted to say just now.

"I want to say that you talk too much, let's go back and make fish!" Zhao Hanyan shouted to Bai Yutang dissatisfied, knowing that he was deliberately teasing himself just now.

Zhao Hanyan flicked the two fish in his hand and walked back. She made a note of this grudge, and she will definitely pay it back in the future.

Bai Yutang was rather happy, and laughed several times as he watched Zhao Han leave in smoke.

After returning to the kitchen, Zhao Hanyan put the four fish into the basin and asked Bai Yutang if he still wanted to help.

Bai Yutang agreed.

Zhao Hanyan gave the knife to Bai Yutang, "Scrape the fish scales."

Carp has many scales, and when scraped with a knife, it will inevitably fly around. Zhao Hanyan does not believe that Bai Yutang's clothes will not stick to fish scales when doing this kind of work.

Bai Yutang took the knife and scraped off the scales neatly without saying a word.As expected, several pieces of fish scales flew out dishonestly, but they happened to avoid Bai Yutang's body and flew elsewhere.

One is shaved clean, it doesn't matter, there are three more.

The three were shaved clean, Zhao Hanyan looked at Bai Yutang's snow-white clothes, and regretted that there were not enough fish to buy.

"Next, what else do you need me for?" Bai Yutang asked.

"No need, I'll do it myself." Zhao Hanyan took the fish full of resentment, cut open the belly of the fish with a knife, and cleaned up the internal organs. During the process, blood splashed on her body, but fortunately, Zhao Hanyan wore an apron in advance .

Bai Yutang had nothing to do, so he came over with a teacup, drinking tea while watching Zhao Hanyan cut the fish.Immediately, seeing the dirty things stuck to Zhao Hanyan's apron, he couldn't help but curl his lips and laugh.

"This thing is good, you can also wear it when you eat next time."

Zhao Hanyan heard Bai Yutang's sarcasm, looked up at him solemnly and seriously, "What do you mean by that?"

"That's what it means to say that this thing is good and suitable for you."

Bai Yutang actually explained it clearly, but Zhao Hanyan didn't need him to explain it at all!

Zhao Hanyan raised the kitchen knife in his hand, glared at Bai Yutang, then slammed the knife down, chopping off the fish's head.

Bai Yutang looked at the cut fish slices on the cutting board, as well as the shaved fish bones and fish heads, and asked Zhao Han how to cook the fish.

The power of beheading the fish head did not deter Bai Yutang at all.

Blame her for being confused for a moment, playing a big knife in front of "Guan Gong's gate".

"You'll know when it's done. Go and rest first." Zhao Hanyan sent Bai Yutang away.

"Not tired, I'll stay here with you." Bai Yutang said.

Zhao Hanyan glanced at the rice cake version of Bai Yutang, who was looking at him with a smile, in the attitude of a winner showing off his might.

Zhao Hanyan took a deep breath, and decided to ignore Bai Yutang and focus on making fish, so that he could forget all his troubles.She first grabs a small amount of glutinous rice flour and sweet potato flour, then grabs salt and white pepper to marinate the fish slices, and then boils the fish head and fish bones in a pot over low heat until the soup turns white.

Use the previously made spicy bean paste and pepper to adjust the base soup, heat the oil in a pan and stir-fry these base ingredients, then pour in the previously cooked fish bone soup, and wait for it to boil.

Put the newly sprouted bean sprouts and cabbage cut into strips into the pot, stir-fry with a little oil and light salt until soft, and spread them on the bottom of the pot.A total of three pots were prepared, and each pot was paved.At this time, the steamed buns made by Su Yuerong were about to be steamed, and the steam from the steamer brought out the fragrance of the noodles.

After a while, the bone soup in the pot boiled, and the soup rolled out from the center of the pot like a spring.Put in the fish slices, keep the fire high, and roll a few times, the fish will be cooked easily, and it can be cooked in this way, without cooking for too long, it needs to be so fresh and tender.

Zhao Hanyan then put the cooked fish and the soup with the meat into the pot, sprinkled the freshly chopped chili powder on the surface of the soup, and then poured hot oil on the surface.When the water and oil collided, there was a loud sizzling sound, and the upper layer of the basin was immediately covered with a layer of bright red oil.

It's getting cooler in autumn, and it's time to eat something spicy to warm up.The white and tender fish meat is immersed in the spicy and attractive red oil, which has a strong visual contrast and stimulates the taste buds on the tip of the tongue.The tender fish, occasionally some bean sprouts and cabbage, served with freshly baked white flour steamed buns, a mouthful of fish and a mouthful of soft steamed buns, full of fragrance, making people unable to control their appetite.

There are also people at the small dining table who don’t usually like spicy food, but this time they couldn’t put down their chopsticks after just one bite, and everyone ate hot and sweaty.

After the meal, Zhao Hanyan also made milk with green tea, added sugar, and made a simple milk tea for them to relieve their greasy and spicy taste.It was also the first time for everyone to drink this thing, except Ma Han himself who doesn't like milk and can't accept the taste, everyone else likes it very much.

Zhan Zhao especially likes to drink it. To him, this sweet milk tea is as attractive as small desserts. After drinking five bowls in a row, it is easy to attract attention, so he reluctantly moved his hand away.

Bai Yutang ate quietly the whole time, and drank the milk tea very gracefully at the end, no one noticed him.Only Ma Han, who was sitting next to Bai Yutang, knew that Bai Yutang was the one who ate and drank the most among the people at the small dining table.But because he eats elegantly and is very quiet and easy to be ignored by everyone, everyone didn't notice.It's hard to count how many pieces of fish Bai Yutang ate, even if it's just milk tea, Ma Han alone had seen ten bowls.

Although Zhao Hanyan can be regarded as a member of the small dining table, because she has to be the cook, she still eats with Xiuzhu, Chunlai and others.So after dinner, Zhan Zhao went to the small kitchen to thank Zhao Hanyan on behalf of everyone.

Zhao Hanyan smiled: "Brother Zhan is too polite, this is what I should do, I got the money."

"I know you're not short of this money, but the food you cook brings us joy that money can buy, thank you." Zhan Zhao said with a smile.

Zhan Zhao's heartfelt voice: I hope there will be that kind of milk tea tomorrow, but how can I tell the little cook?

Zhao Hanyan hurriedly asked Zhan Zhao if he liked to drink that kind of milk tea, and she would prepare more for him tomorrow.

When Zhan Zhao, who was feeling a bit tangled in his heart, heard this, his eyes lit up excitedly, and he almost picked up the little cook and threw him into the sky.This is probably the case when people meet a confidant who understands themselves.But Zhan Zhao still kept a calm and steady expression on his face, thanked Zhao Hanyan with a very modest and reserved smile, said "That's annoying you", and then said goodbye to Zhao Hanyan.

Zhao Hanyan waited in the kitchen for a while, and found that Bai Yutang didn't come to him after dinner as usual, so he went to the yard where Bai Yutang lived.Knocking on the door, he heard Bai Yutang from inside the room answer, and it took him a while to open the door and come out.

Zhao Hanyan: "Why did it take so long to open the door?"

"It's okay." Bai Yutang turned around and closed the door.

Zhao Hu hurriedly ran past the gate of the courtyard, Zhao Hanyan was wondering why he was in such a hurry, when he saw Zhao Hu turned back again, he saw Zhao Hanyan here, and rushed into the courtyard.

"Qian Shi is gone."

"Qian Shi? Lan'er's uncle?" Zhao Hanyan asked for confirmation.

"Yes, because of your reminder, I sent someone from Chenzhou to inquire about the news, but now he came back and told me that the situation at Qian Shi's house was not what he said. I went to confront him in a fit of anger, and found that he was no longer there. It's gone." Zhao Hu explained.
