Chapter 76 At least I still have you
There is a thick white soup in the pot, "gugu" is bubbling and boiling, a few red thread-like things are floating on the surface of the soup, and small yellow heads are faintly visible.
A refreshing new fragrance hits your nostrils.
"This is the saffron we supply. It's genuine." Zheng Qiang gestured to the saffron with his mouth raised, looked at Li Xiaomu and smiled, "Today is a bit extravagant."
That means saffron is expensive, and the dishes with saffron in this restaurant are even more expensive.
This is nothing less than a nail in the heart of Li Xiaomu.
Why don't I open which pot and pick up which pot? Do I give people the impression of being stingy?...Li Xiaomu slandered, nodded calmly and said:
"Open it today and eat it, it's mine."
"Would you like a drink?" the waitress with bun hair asked, lowering her head next to Li Xiaomu.
Lao Jiang drinks alcohol.
No joy without wine.
"What good wine do you have?" Li Xiaomu asked the waitress, Zheng Qiang just inspired me to let you know how generous and generous I am.
"The best 'Green Lotus Wine' in Mizhi City." The maid introduced, "The wine has a clear fragrance and a long mellow taste."
Since it is a famous wine from Mizhi City, it will not be like the Remy Martin in the previous life. It is estimated to be a few hundred, even a thousand, only 1 gold coin, which is affordable... Li Xiaomu thought to himself.
"Then take two bottles first." Li Xiaomu told the waitress, "If there are not enough, please add more."
Zheng Qiang went out for a trip, and when he came back, the meat and vegetables had been served.
The condiment dish Geng Shuang gave Li Xiaomu.
That dish has a good mix of meat and vegetables.
Meat dishes include: tender beef from Sanghong County, mutton rolls from Mizhi County, polar ice cod, octopus from the Mirage Sea, camel meat from the Xiyang Desert, wild boar from the dark forest, top-quality goose sausage from Mizhi County, and Poseidon Island beef brisket.
The name of the dish is very distinctive.
Li Xiaomu paid special attention to four place names: Dark Forest, Xiyang Desert, Polar Icefield, and Poseidon Island. They should all be very far away places.
I looked at Zheng Qiang's map last time and found that these places are very far away.
Vegetarian dishes include: Mizhi County Chinese cabbage, Qingcheng Mountain bamboo shoots, Dark Forest Enoki mushrooms, Poseidon Island wakame, Nanyang River fresh lotus root, Wuduan mountain tribute vegetables, Holy Mountain bamboo fungus, and Qingyi River basil.
Is this Qingcheng Mountain the same as the one in the previous life?...Li Xiaomu feels a sense of intimacy.
The snack is glutinous rice cake, dipped in a touch of golden wild honey from the dark forest. It is soft, crispy and sweet with honey, and fragrant in the teeth and cheeks.
Eight waitresses stood beside each person, busy serving meat dishes.
There was steaming heat and laughter.
It feels good to have friends.
Alone Better Together.
"Come, let's raise a glass to congratulate Xiaomu on winning the competition." Zheng Qiang stood up and suggested while holding the cup.
"Okay!" Everyone stood up and raised their glasses, clinking glasses with Li Xiaomu one by one.
It would be nice to have a mobile phone to take a commemorative photo... Li Xiaomu looked at his friends' sincere eyes and glowing faces, as if he was having a party with his classmates in his previous life.
The waitress softly introduced each dish to everyone, several of which Li had never tasted before in this life.
The tender beef is beef fillet and has no fishy smell.
The waitress scalded the beef for a while, then took it out and put it into a dish of oil.
As soon as you enter the mouth, it is tender and smooth, it breaks into pieces when you bite it, and the bottom of your tongue is fragrant.
The cod is whiter than snow and more tender. You don't need to bite it. It goes into your mouth and throat and rolls into your stomach. It's a pity that I didn't taste the taste in my mouth.
Camel hump meat was put down in the soup pot first and cooked for a long time. It is very chewy and has a shredded meat texture than native chicken. Because of the saffron, the taste is also very delicious.
Excellent goose intestine, crispy and tender.
Take a bite of the beef brisket, it's soft, chewy, and mellow.
Thin slices of wild boar meat are cooked as soon as they are boiled. The meat is soft, mellow in taste, tender but not greasy.
Add some vegetarian dishes in the middle to make it more fragrant.
In defeating Song Qi this time, Professor Lao Jiang's pile walking played a huge role.
Li Xiaomu stood up, raised his glass with both hands, and said sincerely to Lao Jiang:
"Thank you for your careful teaching to me. Although you are not a master in name, I have long regarded you as my master.
"Master, I respect you!"
"You have a quick understanding, keep up your efforts." Lao Jiang touched Li Xiaomu's wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Everyone toasted to each other, and Wu Yilian and Xiaozi Jiang couldn't help but persuade them to sip their wine.
The two bottles of wine were finished quickly.
Everyone was still unsatisfied, so Li Xiaomu asked for two more bottles of Qinglian wine.
In the adjacent pavilion, diners were noisy and drinking wine.
Food is the most important thing for the people. If we add some super-developed ingredients, it will be easy to make money... Li Xiaomu thought about it.
At this time, a small boat arrived.
On the stage on the water island in the middle of the lotus pond, a girl wearing red and green tulle is dancing.
The singing voice was flowing, and a female singer sang in front of the dancers. Her voice was very gentle, and it spread across the pond and lotus leaves, making people intoxicated.
The song evokes the melancholy of dusk, the lingering lingering feeling of being hungover, and the sobriety and determination of experiencing the vicissitudes of life.
It was like the singing voice of Lin Yilian in his previous life...Li Xiaomu seemed to be in a dream, and he remembered the scene when he and his girlfriend went to the "Blue Moon" KTV to sing by the Funan River. At that time, he felt that time passed so slowly and life was so simple.
A waitress with a bun came out of the boat, holding a tray.
"Do you need a song?" The bun-haired waiter looked at everyone skillfully, and finally his eyes fell on Li Xiaomu's face.
Zheng Qiang took out a gold coin and threw it into the plate with a "dong" sound: "It's for the singer."
I guess they don't know how to sing "At least I still have you". When I sang it in my previous life, my girlfriend's little slap turned red. I don't know where she is today... Li Xiaomu's thoughts were up and down, and he could sing a song for her.
Do you hear it? If you can break through to the second level of super power, will your singing sound even better?
The waiter with the bun was about to look away expectantly.
It's really "drunk and drunken that makes people cowardly", not to mention that Li Xiaomu is not a coward at all. Li Xiaomu suddenly asked:
"Can I sing a song for my friend?"
The bun-haired waiter smiled: "Of course you can, 70% of the diners' rewards will be given to you."
There is income from singing here, so why not... Li Xiaomu said proudly:
"Walk!"
In the past, Xiaomu was not good at words and dull, and I had never heard him sing... Wu Yilian looked confused and confused.
"You can sing, when did you do it?" Wu Yilian looked sideways at Li Xiaomu.
"When I was in prison with Master, I was very lonely and lonely, so I yelled a lot." Li Xiaomu was very thoughtful, and it seemed that he was drunk. Fortunately, he understood when he was drunk.
Wu Yilian was doubtful.
"Next, there will be a 'Spotlight' game. I hope you will participate. The winner will get a prize." The bun-haired waiter looked at the crowd and made a "please" gesture to Li Xiaomu.
The two got on the boat, and the old man rocking the boat opened his bow left and right, and the boat sped towards the small island in the pond.
Wu Yilian looked at the boat with a worried look on her face: "Xiaomu, be worried, don't get caught in the wind and catch a cold."
Li Xiaomu turned around and said, "Okay!"
Zheng Qiang introduced everyone to "hitting the lantern", which is a small lantern on the table in the center of the pond. Diners can hit it with peas provided by the restaurant, and the one who knocks it out wins.
"How to play whack-a-mole?" Ah Hei asked.
"The difference is that the lamp seedlings have a defensive barrier." Zheng Qiang said. It seemed that he had eaten here before and played this game. "It was formed by experts."
The dining pavilion is a hundred meters away from the center of the stage.
"It's so far, it's too difficult." Wu Yilian curled her lips, "Super masters must be at least three realms or above, right?"
...
"I will sing a song "At least I still have you" for everyone, dedicated to my friends." On the stage in the center of the lotus pond, Li Xiaomu held a "microphone" and said affectionately to Wu Yilian and others.
The "microphone" is a trumpet-shaped loudspeaker.
