Fourth Master's Little Cook

All four of them were full of emotions, but none of them wanted to let others know that their hearts were very complicated. The expressions on their faces looked more relaxed than before they came to Xueyin Temple.

At noon, the four of them went to eat the famous vegetarian restaurant in Xueyin Temple. Only then did Ye Xue realize that Fujin had assigned a task for herself. With the approval of the fourth master, Ye Xue entered the kitchen and ordered the I read the recipes of several dishes.

The monks in the kitchen didn't hide their secrets, and while cooking, they also told Ye Xue the main points of vegetarian cooking.Ye Xue quickly remembered the recipes of Su Song Bai Yu, Shuang Mushroom Winter Bamboo Shoots Noodles, Vegetarian Lion Head and Dongpo Vegetarian Meat.Seeing that Ye Xue listened carefully, the great monk taught her how to make Sufo jump over the wall, saying that this dish is really delicious, but it is not usually served, only the first and fifteenth day of the new year.

Double mushroom winter bamboo shoot noodles and vegetarian lion head are not difficult to make. Although Dongpo vegetarian meat leaf snow has not been made before, the main ingredient is common winter melon, which is not too difficult.It was the first time Ye Xue had heard of this plain white jade.What Baiyu was talking about was actually white radish. After cutting the white radish into sections and digging them into radish cups, adding seasonings and steaming them until cooked, then stuffing them with bell peppers, water chestnuts, celery, shiitake mushrooms, edamame kernels and ham.Top with pine nuts and celery leaves for garnish.

The process of Susong Baiyu is not too complicated. After watching the great monk do it once, Ye Xue also remembers it almost. As for Sufo Jumping Wall, Master taught her before, but Sufo Jumping Wall has different steps according to different ingredients. Ye Xue hadn't heard of this method that the great monk said before, and thought he could find a chance to try it after going back.

The small radish cup looks very gratifying, and the noodles with double mushrooms and bamboo shoots have a unique taste of the temple. Ye Xue feels that it is slowly a memory after eating it. Baiyu Susong, but a bowl of double mushroom noodles is definitely available.

However, except for Ye Xue, the other three didn't really put their minds on enjoying vegetarian food.It was the first time for Gao Xiaobao to eat at the same table with Fourth Master and Fujin, his calves were shaking, so he would not go to savor the deliciousness of this vegetarian food.Fujin was even more indifferent, after all what Master said today gave her another knowing blow.As for the fourth master, since he came out of the side hall, he talked less, and no one dared to ask the host master what he talked with him.

***

On the way down the mountain, Ye Xue supported Fujin, and Xiaobao walked beside Fourth Master. Halfway, Ye Xue turned to look at Xueyin Temple, but saw that the temple seemed to be floating in the clouds, looming and full of mystery Feeling, if it is snowing, then the temple may be even more difficult to see, no wonder it is named Xueyin Temple.

Probably because of the heavy heart, Fourth Master and Fujin's footsteps also became heavy. When they boarded the return carriage, it was only an hour before evening, and it might be dark when they returned to the mansion.

Xiaobao and the coachman were driving outside, Ye Xue, Si Ye, and Fujin were sitting in the carriage, Fujin closed her eyes to rest when she saw Si Ye got into the carriage, and she also closed her eyes to take a nap, after all, she hadn't climbed the mountain for a long time, The heart is tired and the legs are tired.

Seeing that Fourth Master and Fujin were both asleep, Ye Xue didn't know what to do.She looked at fourth master, only to find that fourth master who had closed his eyes had opened his eyes and met her gaze.The two words Master Xueyin said to her suddenly appeared in Ye Xue's mind: "Xi Yuan, do you mean to let her cherish the fate with Fourth Master?"

When the four eyes met, Ye Xue was half puzzled and half puzzled, she didn't know what to do to call Xi Yuan, isn't what she is doing right now?But both she and fourth master seem to be very satisfied with the way they get along now.

Ye Xue's eyes quickly moved away, and when her watery eyes returned to fourth master again, she found that fourth master's eyes were closed again.Ye Xue withdrew her gaze, and began to ponder over the dishes that the great monk taught her. The master said that the same recipe will be cooked by different people, so you have to think more, instead of holding a pot. Shovel recklessly.

The carriage traveled along the official road and didn't stop all the way. When we got back to the mansion, it was almost dark. The fourth master accompanied Fujin back to the room and asked Ye Xue to go back to the Nuan Pavilion to rest. After Ye Xue finished eating, he stayed in the Nuan Pavilion When there was nothing to do, someone from the study said that fourth master asked her to take care of her.

Ye Xue didn't expect that fourth master would have dinner with Fujin and return to the study so soon.When she rushed to the study room, she found that fourth master was practicing calligraphy, so she came to serve the pen and ink?

Practicing calligraphy can calm the mind, Ye Xue was studying ink, and at the same time she was a little curious about what the host said to Fourth Master. Seeing that Fourth Master was very silent all the way, it must be some touching words, just like what Master Xueyin said to her .As for Fujin's place... Ye Xue felt that Fujin's expression was not very good when he came out, and she told them not to tell Fourth Master, maybe there was something wrong with her.

Thinking about it this way, Ye Xue felt that it was better not to tell the fourth master about her experience. It always felt weird to tell the word "cherish fate" to the fourth master.

Fourth Master wrote without saying a word, and after finishing writing, Ye Xue ground the ink like a little donkey grinding cornmeal, and did not speak, for fear of disturbing the tranquility that Fourth Master wanted.After more than half an hour, fourth master finally opened his mouth: "I'm a little hungry, go and help me make some supper."

As fourth master said, he rolled up another piece of paper and threw it away, feeling very annoyed.He didn't eat a few bites at Fujin's meal just now, and he didn't notice that Fujin was also preoccupied. He was full of what the host said to him.

"Then what does fourth master want to eat? Otherwise, I'll serve you a bowl of noodles?"

It was the first time for Ye Xue to cook supper for Fourth Master, he looked hungry and annoyed, this supper had to be cooked quickly and hot, otherwise Fourth Master would get impatient, no matter how delicious something was, it might taste bad in his mouth have become normal.Ye Xue could think of noodles as the most suitable supper, but she didn't know if Si Ye had anything else he wanted to eat.

Fourth master nodded, and didn't have any requirements for the specific content of the supper: "Yes, you can go."

Ye Xue blessed her body, and quickly went to the dining room.She first fried two poached eggs on one stove, and after the water in the other pot boiled, she threw down the thin slices of beef.Because the beef slices were very thin, it changed color after a while. Ye Xue scooped up the beef and put it into a small bowl, and then put noodles in the pot where the beef was boiled just now.

The noodles were tumbling wantonly in the bubbling pot, Ye Xue poured a spoonful of cold water into it, and when the water boiled again, the noodles were ready to come out of the pot.Ye Xue first put a poached egg on the bottom of the celadon bowl, then scooped out the noodles and put them into the celadon bowl, scooped the beef bone soup that was still stewed by the restaurant into the noodle bowl.

Finally, Ye Xue covered the noodles with the remaining poached egg, spread a layer of beef slices around it, and then sprinkled a handful of coriander and green onion, and a bowl of steaming beef noodles was ready.

The poached eggs are fried very tenderly, and the egg yolks that have not completely solidified flow out after one bite, and the taste of beef bone soup is very delicious.The noodles were cooked very tenderly. After eating a few slices of beef and eating half of the bowl of noodles, Fourth Master still felt unfulfilled, but when he fished down with his chopsticks, he found that there was a poached egg at the bottom of the celadon bowl!

"This is a surprise for Grandpa, right?"

Fourth Master didn't expect Ye Xue to just order a bowl of noodles and surprise him, but eating the second poached egg really gave him a different kind of satisfaction, as if it was an extra delicacy.These two poached eggs made fourth master feel a lot better.

Ye Xue explained with a smile: "I'm afraid that Fourth Master will be hungry, so I don't dare to spend more time doing other things, so I can only focus on this egg. I don't know if Fourth Master likes to eat this kind of egg."

Ye Xue herself likes to eat half-cooked poached eggs, and she bites off the egg yolk and flows out to eat with bibimbap, but she doesn't know what kind of taste Fourth Master likes. She went to find out by herself.It's just that Ye Xue has cooked for Fourth Master for several months, and rarely finds anything he doesn't like, and I don't know if this is what Xiaobao said, "Master never lets servants guess what he likes".

"Whatever you make, I think it's delicious. Is this called Aiwujiwu?"

Fourth master finished eating a bowl of noodles, his stomach was full, and the melancholy in his heart dissipated a lot, and when he looked at Ye Xue, his eyes became different.Ye Xue didn't know if Fourth Master meant that he liked her, and felt a little at a loss, but when Fourth Master reached out to her, Ye Xue put his hand in his palm without much hesitation, and then Pulled into his arms.

"Ash."

Fourth master spread his legs and let Ye Xue sit in front of him. He hugged her from behind and rested his head on her shoulder.Some things don't need to be said in words, it is enough to express them with actions.In this quiet late night, Fourth Master really wanted to hug Ye Xue, no matter which one her core was, this body... always his A Xue was right.The host said to him that "attachment is suffering", but how can a person succeed if he has no attachment?

Ye Xue only felt that Si Ye's voice was a bit fragile. She didn't know if she heard it wrong, but Si Ye's current behavior seemed to be acting like a baby to her, which made her feel that she was actually in front of her. Feeling for Xiaobao.

After Fourth Master called "Axue", he didn't speak for a long time. He just put his arms around Ye Xue's waist, feeling Fourth Master's breath against his ears, the temperature on Ye Xue's face rose higher and higher, and she finally He couldn't help but asked softly: "Fourth Master, do you want to write some more? I went to clean up the bowl?"

Only then did the fourth master let go of his hand as if waking up from a dream, but after Ye Xue stood up, the fourth master said again: "Just put the bowl aside, and I will ask someone to clean it up later. I heard from Fushun that you have something lately." I'm practicing calligraphy, come write a few words and let me see if you've made any progress."

Fourth master himself didn't want to write, but wanted to watch her write. Ye Xue smiled, picked up the pen that fourth master had put aside just now, thought for a while, and wrote the words that his master taught him: be calm when you are proud, and be calm when you are frustrated.

The fourth master looked at it, and his heart was in a trance. He remembered that after he became the throne, Ye Xue wrote these eight characters in the room.
