Gourmet daily life with Monkey [Journey to the West]

Tao Tao laughed, and asked by the way: "What would Mr. Ruqian want to eat?"

Ruqian's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Do I have a share too? Why don't I go with you to the back kitchen and watch with my own eyes how you cook."

"Well...you can do as you like." Tao Tao just wanted to sell him, after all Ruqian really wanted to help her.

After following Ruqian to the back kitchen, Tao Tao realized that the kitchen was extremely simple, and it was a little better than the stove they built randomly outside on weekdays.The seasoning is even less noticeable, and the types of vegetables are not only few, but also not fresh.

She shook her head in despair, and wondered to herself how did the modest and mean nun survive?

There were two Taoist boys busy in the kitchen, so Ruqian asked them to help Tao Tao. Tao Tao asked a few words about the usual preferences of the mean Taoist nun. It turned out that the Taoist nun didn’t have any hobbies. She ate some green vegetables every meal and was still a vegetarian By.

Tao Tao couldn't help herself if she didn't eat meat. She only thought for a moment before she came up with an idea.

He took out a bunch of dishes from the space, and the three of them stared straight at him, and then took out a bunch of bottles and cans, which made them even more confused.

But Ruqian didn't ask any questions, just stood quietly watching her busy, showing a smile from time to time.

"Mr. Ruqian, you'd better stand a little further away. Look at your fine clothes. It would be bad if the oil splashed on it." Qian was standing by the stove, and only then did he remind him.

"Okay." Ruqian obediently stood a little further away, touched his clothes, and thought to himself not to be seen by this girl.

The first dish of Taotao is fried hot and sour potato shreds. The dishes are stir-fried a few times in the pan, and the aroma comes out.When all the seasonings were added, the wonderful aroma rushed straight into the nose, and the two little Taoist boys stood up and stared blankly at the iron pot.

Ruqian originally thought that Tao Tao was talking big, but he was immediately stunned by this move.This skill is definitely better than the royal chef in the palace!No, it should be the condiments she brought are working. Ruqian is very curious about what are these condiments, and how can there be such a strange smell?

The second dish is fish-flavored eggplant, without fish meat, but it can produce the aroma of fish, which opened the eyes of several people.The third dish is vinegared cabbage. Just looking at the color of the dish has already made people's index fingers twitch.

At the end, there was a cold vegetable three silk, which is relatively simple, but once the seasoning is added, it still exudes an irresistible aroma.

The rice over there was almost steamed, Tao Tao breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the reactions of Ruqian and the two Taoist boys, her odds of winning the mean Taoist nun increased by [-]%.

But she didn't know that when she was making the second dish, Ruyi secretly hid outside the door.The aroma really teased her so much that she couldn't bear it, and she wished she could take a bite right away.But she couldn't hold back her face, so she hid outside and sniffed the aroma of food secretly.

She was shocked and surprised, how did such delicious food come out?

"It's time for dinner, let's serve." Tao Tao personally carried a plate of potato shreds to the front hall, and the two little boys happily brought fish-flavored eggplant and vinegared cabbage.Although you can't eat it, it's good to smell the aroma more.

In the end, there was still a plate of cold salad and vegetables, and Ruqian served it with a smile. Seeing such delicate and beautiful food whetted his appetite.

When she arrived at the front hall, Tao Tao found that the mean Taoist nun was counting prayer beads, but she didn't see her counting down one after counting for a long time.Tao Tao understood, and deliberately brought the potato shreds in front of her.

Ruyi suddenly opened her eyes, seeing the delicious food in front of her, she almost couldn't control it.

Tao Tao secretly smiled: "Miss Ruyi, the food is ready, please eat. By the way, these are all vegetarian, and you can eat them with confidence. If you think it is not delicious, feel free to mention it."

"Hmph, then I'll try it first, and if it doesn't taste good, I'll kick you out." Ruyi clearly couldn't hold it anymore, her face was still so cold and arrogant, she walked quickly to the table, and only invited Ruqian to the table .

"Miss Taozi, let's have a meal together. You made these delicacies yourself." Ruqian asked Daotong to give Tao Tao a pair of chopsticks.

"I won't eat it, you can eat it first." Tao Tao really didn't have much appetite, she was still waiting to take Tao Zi back to Brother Hou and the others to conceive.

"Brother, just leave her alone." Ruyi couldn't wait any longer, and took the lead in feeding a piece of potato shreds into her mouth.Originally, she just wanted to taste the taste, and whenever something went wrong, she would spit it out and humiliate Tao Tao.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she ate the shredded potatoes, she couldn't help but change her face slightly.

It was a taste that she had never tasted before, and she couldn't describe what it felt like, her tongue was hot and a little sour, the oil was very fragrant, and it was a completely different fragrance from before.In addition to this, there are at least four or five flavors. Every time you chew more, the taste will come out a little bit, as if you can't taste it all.

In her heart, she wanted to be more reserved, but her hand had already developed a sense of autonomy, and she couldn't help picking up a large chopstick with potato shreds!

After eating a few mouthfuls of shredded potatoes, she started to attack the fish-flavored eggplant again. This is a completely different taste. There is no fish, but it can smell like fish.

At this time, Ruyi no longer thinks about whether to be ashamed or not, and whether to slap her face or not, she just wants to pour all these delicacies into her mouth, and eat her as much as she can.

Ruqian is not much better than her, she was originally a very picky eater, but today she ate extra sweet, as if she couldn't get enough of it.He has never seen these dishes before, he doesn't even know the names, and there is no meat, but they are even more delicious than imperial meals.

The two little Taoist boys next to me are already drooling, I just hope that the master can give them some leftovers, even one mouthful is fine!Master usually doesn't have a big appetite and can't finish a whole dish.

But they were doomed to be disappointed. Ruyi and Ruqian not only ate up all the dishes, but even the greasy food below, their eyes lit up and they got carried away.

After eating, he let out a long breath, as if he hadn't eaten enough in three lifetimes. That appearance was really not very glamorous.

Tao Tao knew this would be the result, so she just smiled and waited for the two of them to finish eating before asking, "What do you think of the taste, Madam Ruyi?"

Ruyi froze, her complexion turned ugly, and she finally thought of Tao Tao.Now she has no choice but to say something that is unpalatable or unpalatable, no matter how thick-skinned she is, she will not be able to say such words.

So he coughed to cover up his embarrassment, and said coldly: "It's not bad, it's considered qualified. Even so, I'll keep my word, and I'll reward you with one peach in this yard. But..."

She deliberately paused, showing a strange smile: "You can only give these peaches to Tang Seng."

"Why is that?" Tao Tao was puzzled. Could it be that if someone else eats it, it won't work?

"Don't ask any questions, just do as I tell you. When Tang Seng eats peaches and conceives, bring him to my place. If he can make me happy, I'll reward him with three more, otherwise your three Senior brother just wait to have a baby." After eating and drinking enough, Ruyi returned to her arrogant and indifferent appearance, which is really a model of picking up the bowl to eat and putting down the bowl to scold others.

Tao Tao didn't bother to argue with her at the moment, Ruyi went out and picked a peach for her, and told Tang Seng that she could only eat it, so Tao Tao left with doubts.

Back at the house next to the peach forest, it was already afternoon. Tang Seng and the others had just had lunch, but they didn't eat much. When they saw Tao Tao come back, they were all pleasantly surprised and eager.

"Little sister, you are finally back, but you hurt my brother to death. Where are the peaches? Hurry up and give my brother one, and my brother is really going to give birth to a child later." Zhu Bajie screamed, and Tao Tao only found out a few hours later. Unexpectedly, the stomachs of the four of them are quite swollen, and they look like they are pregnant for four or five months.

"Peach, have you picked any peaches? As a teacher, I can't bear the pain, and I can feel the fetus moving around in my belly." Tang Seng was dripping with cold sweat, and he didn't even have the strength to sit up.

Monkey King also said: "Tao Zi, how is the situation?"

Tao Tao was a little embarrassed, and took out a peach from the sleeve robe, and the eyes of the few people lit up immediately!

"Little sister, I knew you would do it, give the peaches to brother!" If Zhu Bajie hadn't been handicapped, he would have come over to snatch it.

"Brother, but I only got this one peach. That Ruyi empress not only hates women, but is also Honghai'er's aunt. She said that we made Honghai'er unable to become a king, so she held a grudge and refused to give me a peach. That's it. One, it took me a lot of work to get it."

Tao Tao scratched her head, and for a moment she didn't know who to give the peach to, so she said: "The Ruyi lady said that this peach can only be eaten by the master, and asked the master to go to her personally after the pregnancy. If she is happy, maybe Will give us a few more."

"Ah?" The four were dumbfounded, and sighed together. It's just a peach, is it really going to be eaten by the master?

"She really said that? Peach, then you can give it to my teacher. When the time comes, I will go to her in person, and I will definitely get three more peaches for Wukong and the others to eat." Tang Seng's eyes were full of longing. Holding the peach in Tao Tao's hand is as joyful as seeing a scripture.

"Master, that Taoist priest clearly lied to you in order to harm you on purpose! She has a grudge against us, and if we didn't protect you, she would never show mercy to you." Monkey King also stared at the peach in Tao Tao's hand. , concluded: "So let the old grandson eat the peaches."

"Smelly monkey, why should I eat it for you? The relatives are far and wide, so I should eat it first. Little girl, don't be tempted by them, you must eat it first, I'm your real brother." Zhu Bajie immediately refused. Well, that's just one peach, who knows if I can get another one later?

If you can't get it, don't you have to have a baby?

When Tao Tao was undecided, Sha Wujing finally said: "Let's give the elder brother the peaches. What the elder brother said makes sense, and the nun clearly has bad intentions. When the elder brother eats the peaches and conceives, then the elder brother will conceive." Become like a master. Even if you can't fool the nun, you can pick a few more peaches."

Zhu Bajie groaned: "I can do it too, why don't you give it to me?"

"I'll talk about it after you beat me, you pig." Sun Wukong won a supporter, he couldn't help being in a good mood, and comforted Tang Seng, saying: "Master, wait a little longer, within an hour, Lao Sun will definitely bring back peaches. "

"Since that's the case, Wukong, you can eat first." Tang Seng also gave in, and Zhu Bajie couldn't say anything more after seeing this situation.

So Tao Tao washed the peaches and gave them to Monkey King, and Monkey King ate them in a few mouthfuls.The flesh and blood that had been congealed from the fetus disappeared spontaneously, and the stomach also relieved a lot, and the pain gradually disappeared.

After recovering his strength, Monkey King jumped off the bed immediately, and took the golden cudgel again, and he was able to hold it again.

"It seems that Lao Sun has really lost her baby. It's better to be relaxed like this." He laughed and played the golden cudgel twice before it turned into a thin needle and put it back in his ear.

"Brother Hou, don't just show off, go to Ruyi Temple and pick peaches for us." Zhu Bajie was so envious that his eyes turned red, and he hurriedly urged.

Sun Wukong said: "Bajie, don't worry, the old grandson will go right away. Taozi, you lead the way."

"Yeah." Tao Tao also had the bottom line this time, the Taoist nun can only fight herself to a draw, so she must not be the opponent of Brother Hou.

If you really want to be tough, Brother Hou will hold Taoist nun to pick peaches, presumably Ruqian will not object.

After Sun Wukong became Tang Seng, he went out with Tao Tao. Along the way, Tao Tao explained in detail what happened in the Ruyi Temple. Sun Wukong heard that there was Ruqian there, and he was immediately attracted.

"Why is there an ordinary man in the Taoist temple?"

"It is said that he is the elder brother of the mean Taoist nun, but I don't think the two of them look alike. Besides, the Taoist nun came to the man's country only a few years ago. I don't know when Ruqian came." Tao Tao also looked suspicious, If one was not named Ruqian and the other Ruyi, she would have thought they were sworn brothers and sisters.

"You should also pay attention to this Ruqian, maybe there is another way." Sun Wukong was quite hostile to Ruqian in words, Tao Tao nodded, and also felt that Ruqian might have some background.

When I came to the Taoist temple again, Tao Tao was already familiar with the road, this time it was a little Taoist boy who opened the door, and when he saw Tao Tao, he invited her in.

This time, she didn't see Ruqian, only Ruyi was meditating in the quiet room, after Xiaodaotong informed her, she opened her eyes and walked out.

"Miss Ruyi, I gave the peach to Master to eat, and I lost my baby after eating it. I came here specially to thank you this time." Tao Tao smiled and introduced to the two: "Master, this is the Empress Ruyi I mentioned. , the fairy peaches here belong to the empress.”

"I've seen Lady Ruyi, the poor monk is polite." Sun Wukong pretended to be like that. He has been with Tang Seng for many years, and he has also learned some etiquette from Tang Seng.

After all, Empress Ruyi doesn't have piercing eyes, so she really didn't recognize her.It's just that there is a cold light in the eyes, like two bone-scraping steel knives.

"You are Tang Seng? Hmph, I've been waiting for you for a long time! You are a dead donkey who caused my nephew to be taken away by Guanyin Bodhisattva and become a boy of good fortune. Do you admit it or not!"

The Buddha dust in her hands trembled, as if Tang Seng refused to recognize her, she would call him directly.

Sun Wukong seemed taken aback, and stammered: "You, you are talking about the red boy? That red boy has become a boy of good fortune, and boy of good fortune is a Buddhist orthodox boy. Wouldn't it be better than him being a mountain king in the mountains? Much stronger?"

"Pretty words! How bad is it to be a mountain king and be free and easy? Why do you want to be Guanyin's dog? You are really hateful, you bald donkey. I will kill you right now to avenge my nephew!" Ruyi really didn't feel at ease. With a flash of cold light, Fochen made an instant move and attacked Monkey King.

Taking the initiative to attack the opponent, there is no need for Sun Wukong to continue to pretend, and he immediately showed his original shape.

"You bull-nosed and a dead bald donkey, just as Lao Sun is easy to bully? When Lao Sun cultivated Taoism and became a fairy, you didn't know where to feed! Look good!"

"Sun Wukong!" Ruyi was quite shocked, and Fochen immediately increased his strength by [-]%.

How could she not know the prestige of Sun Wukong?Just because he knew how powerful he was, he lied to Tao Tao that he could only give the peaches to Tang Seng.She originally thought that these apprentices should respect their teachers and save Tang Seng first, but who would have thought that they would be so different and save Monkey King first.

Ruyi didn't dare to underestimate the enemy anymore, she used all her strength in her moves, and her hatred of Monkey King was still higher than that of Tang Seng.

"Peach, leave me alone, go and pick the fairy peaches!" Monkey King didn't show mercy, and after a few tricks, Ruyi was forced to take a few steps back.The two fought to the mid-air, completely clearing the place for Tao Tao, and Tao Tao didn't delay any longer, ran to the side of the tree and picked more than a dozen in one go and put them into the space.

"Brother Monkey, be careful, I'll go back and save Master and the others first."

"Go." Sun Wukong beat Ruyi so hard that he couldn't get distracted at all. Ruyi was out of breath, and the Buddha dust suddenly scattered, turning into countless slender and tough threads, and instantly entangled him.

"Small tricks." Sun Wukong sneered, the golden cudgel was swung into a domineering circle, and all the filaments were wrapped around the stick.With another shake, it was turned into powder.

Tao Tao also used the skill of flying clouds and driving fog, and returned to the house in a short while, and gave Tang Seng, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing one peach each.The three happily ate, and after a quarter of an hour, the fetal gas in the body was relieved as expected.

Zhu Bajie patted his belly in fear, and said with emotion: "It's better to be so relaxed, it's really not a human life to be pregnant."

"So brother, if you marry your sister-in-law in the future, you must treat her better." Tao Tao joked, saying that she didn't know who would be so unlucky to fall in love with her brother.

"Let's not talk about your sister-in-law, but you, my little sister. If you get married in the future, whoever dares to bully you, I will break his leg." Zhu Bajie patted Tao Tao's shoulder, feeling a little sad for a while, no matter how good the girl is. , I will leave myself after all.

"Taozi, where's Wukong?" Tang Seng couldn't bear to see their nonsense, they even entered Buddhism and still talk about marriage here, it's really absurd.

"Brother Monkey is still dealing with that Taoist nun, and he should be back soon." Just as he was speaking, Monkey King walked in with a beaming face. It seemed that the Taoist nun didn't take advantage of him.

Tang Seng heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Since everyone is fine, after a night's rest, let's enter the palace to see His Majesty tomorrow."
