"Second Young Master." The cook, who was cutting meat, was startled when he saw Cheng Huailiang coming to his side, and hurriedly saluted him.

Cheng Huailiang's shelf was not big, and he nodded to him: "Good job, I'll just take a look, you're busy." ”

"Yes, Second Young Master."

A good wild boar, Liu Yuan on the side saw that his eyes lit up, this wild boar is only about 100 catties, this is a wild boar, this weight is good, the size is moderate, fat and thin, the fine meat is red and gorgeous, and there is blood, very fresh, and the belly meat is even better, one fat and one thin, layer by layer, distinct, there are as many as five layers, it is the best pork in the pork: pork belly, braised pork is definitely the best material.

"Good meat!" Liu Yuan couldn't help but praise.

Cheng Huailiang frowned and said: "Brother Liu, you are wrong, this is pork, what is it that people eat, what is good, it looks disgusting and dirty, it is a good thing next to you." ”

Doctor Shizi thinks that pigs are dirty things, leftovers, wild vegetables are gnawed on everything, and they are still rolling in the mud, they are inferior ingredients, usually eaten by civilians and slaves, they prefer sheep, sheep eat grass, white as snow, there is a feeling of cleanliness and holiness, that is, Li Er, and from time to time reward sheep to meritorious officials, Cheng Huailiang saw that Liu Yuan was interested in pork, and couldn't help shaking his head, a little strange Liu Yuan, who is rich, why did he say that pork is good meat?

By the way, I heard that he used to be an apprentice, so it couldn't be a habit he developed back then, right? It's been so long and it hasn't changed back?

Liu Yuan shook his head and patiently explained: "Brother Cheng, this is wrong, the real foodie is not limited to ingredients and methods, but to study the skills of cooks, for example." The same is to eat sheep, but the Tubo and Hu people are looked down upon, for what is it, because they can't cook, when they eat, they can't go to the smell of sheep, and there is also a smell of sheep on their bodies after eating too much, and the nobles of the Tang Dynasty have good cooks who can do very well. ”

"Really?" Cheng Huailiang shook his head: "I've eaten it before." It's dry and hard, it's not delicious. ”

Needless to say, it must be poorly done, and the next person's meals are all made casually. There is less oil and less salt, and it is estimated that even salt is reluctant to sprinkle two more. Don't even think about seasonings. It's weird to make it delicious.

Liu Yuan rolled up his sleeves, walked to the cook and said, "Let me get some meat, and I'll show my second-hand hand today." ”

"This, Second Young Master, this" The distinguished guest suddenly wanted to make a move, and the cook was startled. didn't dare to make up his mind, and looked at Cheng Huailiang with an inquiring gaze as he spoke.

"Give him the knife." Cheng Huailiang is not a pedantic person, and besides, listening to Liu Yuan say it is so tempting, I also want to see what he wants to do.

"Yes. Second Young Master. The cook left the knife on the board, stepped aside, and gave up the "stage" of cutting meat to Liu Yuan, who was about to move.

In the surprised eyes of everyone, Liu Yuan skillfully handled the meat cleaver, used the wind to move the knife, and began to deal with wild boar, not bad, lived alone in his previous life, and learned to take care of himself very early, and in Tubo for a few months, he slaughtered cattle and sheep every day, and practiced a good knife technique early in the morning, less than half a cup of tea, Liu Yuan picked the best pork belly, and cut the most tender pork ribs, personally cut the meat, and chopped the ribs, which was relieved.

Cheng Huailiang was dazzled on the side, but he didn't expect Liu Yuan's movements to be so skillful, and said in surprise: "Brother Liu, I didn't expect you to be so familiar with cooking, you all say that Junzi Yuanbud cooks, I really can't guess it." ”

"What gentleman? I'm a martial artist, Brother Cheng, are you a gentleman? Liu Yuan pretended to be "surprised" and asked Cheng Huailiang.

The two of them are now military generals, so naturally they can't get along with those so-called gentlemen, Cheng Huailiang was stunned, he didn't expect Liu Yuan to be so cheerful, denying that he was a gentleman, that kind of straightforwardness also made Cheng Huailiang feel good, Ha Luha smiled, nodded and said to Liu Yuan: "No, where are we bullshit gentlemen, we are all martial artists." ”

Liu Yuan squeezed his eyes and said: "The gentleman didn't say [eat without words, silence], if you can't laugh loudly when eating, can't eat meat, can't eat wine in a big bowl, what's the meaning, that is, there is a stunning beauty, lying next to it, when it rains in Wushan, if you are really silent, like a corpse, you are silent, there is no mood, so what's the point?" ”

"Haha" Cheng Huailiang punched Liu Yuan's shoulder, and couldn't help but praise: "Wonderful people, wonderful people, I didn't expect Brother Liu to be so interesting, if we knew this, we would be more close." ”

Kiss your sister, how can this big and small demon king of the Cheng family like to beat people when he is happy, Liu Yuan touched the time when he was beaten by Cheng Huailiang, and smiled bitterly.

"Brother Liu, then, what should I do with these now?" Cheng Huailiang pointed to the meat case, Liu Yuan dealt with the pork belly and pork ribs and said.

"Of course I'm here to get it, where is the seasoning" Liu Yuan said confidently: "I'm sorry to say it, this time I came in a hurry, and I came empty-handed for the first time, so let me make two side dishes, and I should honor Uncle Cheng and Aunt Cheng." ”

Cheng Huailiang turned his head and instructed the cook: "You, hurry up and help, this is a distinguished guest, you must not be lazy." ”

The second young master of his own family personally accompanied him to visit, and he called him brother and brother, can the relationship be bad? The cook saw it in his eyes early in the morning, and when he heard this, he hurriedly led Liu Yuan to the cooking place, pointed at Liu Yuan Zhidao with those spices one by one, and personally lit the fire for Liu Yuan.

Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, green onion, garlic, star anise, spicy, cinnamon, tangerine peel, etc., Liu Yuan was overjoyed, he didn't expect Chengfu's seasoning to be so rich, first marinate the pork ribs with oil and salt, and then put the pork belly in the pot to remove the oil, so as not to eat greasy for a while

Cheng Yanjin accompanied the glamorous lady, sat at the dining table, and said a little unhappily: "Why don't you have a meal yet, and the second young master is still a guest in the house?" ”

People are iron, rice is steel, don't eat a meal, usually make a lot of noise, talk and do things, may consume a lot of energy, Cheng Biting Jin has a lot of food, I am a little hungry today, I haven't eaten yet, my son and Liu Yuan are gone, and I can't help but shout loudly for a while.

"If you go back to the master, the second young master and the guests are in the kitchen." A girl hurriedly replied.

"Hey, what are Liang'er and Liu Yuan doing in the kitchen?" Pei Caixia couldn't help but ask for a while.

"I heard that General Liu wants to cook two dishes by himself, so in order to wait for him, the dishes will be served a little later."

Cheng Yanjin said: "What? Liu Yuan's kid cooks by himself? Well, yes, that's going to have to wait a minute. ”

"Husband" Pei Caixia asked curiously: "It is said that the gentleman is far away from the bud cook, then Liu Yuan has more than a month to become an adult, and now he has been in the official residence of the fifth grade, and he is deeply respected by the emperor, and the husband is also full of praise for him, he not only does a good job as an official, but also does the business very well, can be called an all-rounder, such a talent, running to cook, is it a bit overkill, not doing business?" ”

"What's that, it's so good, you can do whatever you want, so it's free, you always have to worry about this, worry about that, what's the point, madam, you don't know, that kid seems to have a hand in eating, the emperor has been to his house to eat, and he is full of praise, I have to take a good look at it, what surprise does he have?"

Pei Caixia smiled, nodded and said, "When the husband said this, the concubine was a little looking forward to it." ”

Fortunately, Liu Yuan didn't wait too long for Cheng Yanjin and his wife, about half a cup of tea, Liu Yuan and Cheng Huailiang walked in together with a smile, and behind them was the servant with the meal.

After another polite gesture, the last four sat down.

Cheng Lao Demon King has three sons, Cheng Huaimo, Cheng Huailiang, and Cheng Huaihua, but the eldest and the third are exercising in the army and have not come back yet, and those concubines and daughters are not convenient to show up.

is different from Liu Yuan's habit of eating, Liu Yuan likes to sit together when he eats, so lively, but Cheng Biting Jin is eating separately this time, Cheng Mowang and Pei Caixia sit together, with a big table, sit on it, Liu Yuan and Cheng Huailiang have a small table, Liu Yuan sits under Cheng Mowang, and Cheng Huailiang sits under his mother, and on the table, there are all kinds of meals.

This demon king of the mixed world, dividing people so apart, is not in line with his arrogant character, but as soon as he saw the "most beautiful wife" sitting next to him, Liu Yuan immediately woke up: This old guy saw that the lady was too beautiful, for fear of suffering, and separated people, for fear that others would take advantage of his wife.

Dizzy, here the little nephew is affectionate, and there is like a wolf guarding himself, Liu Yuan has a stirring in his heart: It won't be, this old guy looks at himself and is so bold that he even dares to go to Tubo, and then

As for it?

"What are these two discs?" Old Demon King Cheng looked at the two new dishes on the table, and said curiously: "Xiaoyuan, this is, you made it?" ”

Liu Yuan smiled and said: "Well, this dish is called braised pork, and this is steamed pork ribs, although it is made of wild boar, but the taste is okay, Uncle Cheng and Aunt Cheng can taste it." ”

"Dad, mother, eat, I just tasted it in the kitchen, it's so delicious that I can't stop." After Cheng Huailiang finished speaking, he immediately threw a piece of fat and oily braised pork into his mouth.

Cheng bit Jin Ha and smiled, and did not hide his ugliness: "The old man is young and poor, and he has eaten a lot of pork, okay, let me try it, madam, you can also taste it, see how that kid's craftsmanship is?" ”

"The concubine listens to the husband."

Cheng Biting Jin took a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth, just chewed it a few times, only felt that the meat was fragrant, the braised pork was fat but not greasy, the color was red and bright, it melted in the mouth, and the taste was excellent.

Like a woman carefully cultivated by a famous family, where has she ever eaten pork, and now she eats it, mainly because this dish is made by Liu Yuan, and she is afraid of losing his face if she doesn't eat it, but she didn't expect that the dirty pig, its meat is so delicious, so delicious, you can't stop eating.
