But there is no rush about peppers, tomatoes are more important right now.
As soon as Yan Xingxuan heard that this was edible, he couldn't help but salivate, and his eyes were glued to it.
Mr. Chen was flustered and subconsciously took a step back.
After all, His Highness the King of Wei has done a lot of ridiculous things just for a bite to eat.
When those censors were idle and had nothing to learn from, they would consult her and the eldest princess.
At this time, facing Yan Xingxuan's expectant and longing eyes, Mr. Chen really wanted to grab the basket and run away.
But, he didn’t dare!
Zhou Yuxing was completely ignored behind him, and he was not angry either.
When he saw Xiao Nianzhi, he felt guilty. At this time, he should better reduce his sense of presence.
But...
What is that?
Never seen it.
How strange.
Take a look, take another look.
When it was over, he also swallowed his saliva.
"How about cutting one and trying it?" Yan Xingxuan couldn't help but speak directly.
In response, Xiao Nianzhi nodded in agreement: "Can you try it?"
The thing belonged to her, but now that Mr. Chen was holding it in his hand, the words Xiao Nianwei said turned around and turned into a questioning tone.
Mr. Chen naturally understands that this thing belongs to his hometown king, and he can decide.
It looks like the tomatoes are in his hands, but they are all temporary!
Therefore, both of them said they wanted to try it, and he naturally had no reason to refuse or stop it.
Mr. Chen was preparing to cut tomatoes with a solemn expression. When Zhou Yuxing saw that everyone was leaving him to eat delicious food, he wanted to yell: This is my village!!!
But, I am too timid to dare!
In the end, I could only ask in a low voice and weakly: "...Yes, can you take me with you?"
His pitiful tone was different from his usual arrogant demeanor.
Yan Xingxuan didn't have a good impression of him, but after all, he borrowed Zhuangzi from Zhou Mansion, and nodded after thinking about it.
Although he could ask this question to Xiao Nianzhi, he didn't want to embarrass the little girl.
Therefore, he can just make the decision privately.
Hate and resent, come at him!
When Zhou Yuxing heard this, he thought he could follow suit and quickly turned his wheelchair to follow.
Boy:???
No, young master, can you turn the co-author yourself?
The boy wanted to complain, but he didn't have the courage, so when he saw his master running away, he immediately trotted to keep up.
It's too hot here in the baking room, but the last batch of snowflake cakes haven't come out yet, so people have to watch.
Laishun, whose cooking skills have greatly improved recently, stayed to take on this important caregiving task.
Laishun:.
Blame it on me, I studied too well.
So, what is the red thing?
It’s so weird, I want to try it.
Unfortunately, there is no chance for the time being.
Everyone temporarily left the baking room and went to the kitchen.
In fact, it’s not that far away, but it’s just a few dozen extra steps.
After passing by, under the guidance of the cook, Mr. Chen cleaned the chopping board, washed the knife, then straightened his back and started cutting.
If this thing is not cut properly, the juice will flow out, which is a waste.
So, after Mr. Chen thought about it, he put another plate on the chopping board.
I was inexperienced when I cut it for the first time, and I wasted a lot of juice. It makes me feel sad just thinking about it now.
It’s not good to waste the sweet and sour taste.
So, this time, I put a plate as the bottom. If the juice drips again, he won’t mind it and drinks it himself!
The fist-sized tomatoes were carefully cut into eight pieces by Mr. Chen.
If it wasn't more difficult to cut, he would actually want to cut it smaller.
However, these blocks are actually enough.
The masters can just share a portion, and the servants should forget about it for the time being. If they can plant a large amount in the future, it will not be too late to eat!
After Mr. Chen cut it, he first said to Xiao Nianzhi: "Look, Mr. Xiang, the structure inside is actually quite complicated, but it can be eaten. The swollen seeds also taste very good, and the juice on them is
It's very rich, sweet and sour, like a kind of fruit, but the skin is a little thin, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to store."
Xiao Nianzhi glanced at the tomatoes and nodded with satisfaction.
Even though she hasn't eaten it yet, the cut tomatoes are already exuding a faint fragrance. The natural aroma of plants is constantly floating towards her, tempting her gourmet nerves and quietly fluctuating with them.
.
In fact, Xiao Nianzhi has not eaten such pure tomatoes with thin skin and fragrant flesh for a long time.
In modern times, for better transportation, the skin of tomatoes has become thicker as it is improved. Xiao Nianzhi once bought the thickest variety. How exaggerated is the skin thickness?
An unskilled novice can peel the skin with a knife and still ensure that the flesh inside is not exposed...
In addition to thick skin, tomatoes like that have very little juice inside, and the taste is not very good. When they are not ripe enough, they are crispy, hard and astringent. When they are ripe, they are soft and tasteless.
The juice in front of me was already flowing uncontrollably along the fibrous tissue as soon as it was cut open. The tomato was as thin as paper and exuded a faint aroma. In contrast, all the tomatoes that Xiao Nianzhi had encountered before
They are all middle- and lower-grade fruits!
After observing for a while and listening to Mr. Chen's explanation, Xiao Nianzhi nodded, went to clean his hands first, and then took a piece.
Yan Xingxuan originally wanted to go up directly, but his hands were clean.
However, fearing that the little girl would dislike him, he also washed his hands.
Zhou Yuxing took a look, huh?
No, why do you need to wash your hands again?
He took a shower before setting off to Zhuangzi. After landing, he didn't touch anything...
Forget it, just wash it.
He lined up behind Yan Xingxuan and also washed his hands.
After cleaning his hands, Xiao Nianzhi went over and picked up a small piece first. As the distance got closer, it belonged to tomatoes, and the fragrant smell became more and more intense.
When it reaches the mouth, before taking a sip, the fragrance seems to have reached its peak, giving people a feeling that the more you smell it, the more you smell it.
Xiao Nianzhi knows, no.
This fragrance is far from reaching its peak.
Take a light bite, and the thin skin will be broken by the light touch of your lips and teeth. The fruit pulp inside is soft and tastes great, with abundant juice, bursting in your mouth. The sweet and sour taste is overbearing and comfortable.
Wander between the lips and teeth, trying to leave traces of your passing everywhere.
The skin is thin and tender, the inside is sandy, the taste is sour and sweet, and the texture is excellent.
The piece was not big, so I ate it all in two bites.
Xiao Nianzhi picked up the second piece.
Master Chen:......!
He wanted to stop me, but I'm sorry, I'm not that thick-skinned.
This was originally planted by Mr. Jiangjiajun accidentally. If he hadn't been curious and called them, he might have eaten it freely now.
So, what is he stopping?
Even though he couldn't control it, he quietly stretched out his hand and received a death stare.
Master Chen:?
He raised his head in confusion, and then faced Yan Xingxuan's smiling face.
