Looking at Mr. Zhen's sweaty face, which seemed to be a bit complaining, Feng Baozheng was eating a piece of tender and spicy fish, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly when he heard this.
Feng Bao originally had no appetite, but this fresh dish was too delicious. The slightly numb soup stimulated the taste buds and was tender and smooth...
This simply subverted his cognition.
Eunuch Feng ate a piece of fish, took a slight breath, endured the spicy stimulation, wiped his mouth slowly, and picked up a piece of spicy millet from the plate with chopsticks.
As a gourmet who has eaten all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas, Feng Bao had deep doubts in his heart and blurted out the words as soon as they came to his lips.
“Sichuan food?”
Shen Lie hurriedly said: "You are wise."
Isn’t boiled fish a Sichuan dish?
But Feng Bao fell into deep doubts again. He had eaten Sichuan food. Although it was characterized by spicy food, what was this condiment?
Are there any ingredients in the world that his Eunuch Feng has never seen before?
But Mr. Zhen was still asking while wiping his nose: "What on earth is this? It looks very strange... sneeze!"
Mr. Zhen sneezed and wiped off the sweat on his forehead and the heavy runny nose that accidentally flowed out. Suddenly he felt that his whole body was smooth and every pore in his body seemed to be relaxed.
This delicious dish, this spicy and refreshing taste is too unforgettable.
Feng Bao was speechless.
He doesn't know him either.
Fortunately, Shen Lie said something more to help Eunuch Feng: "This is called red pepper."
Mr. Zhen looked relieved and said softly: "Oh...hehe."
never heard of that.
However, he didn't want to show his timidity and appear ignorant, so he had to cover up his embarrassment with a smile, which made him look even more honest.
Yun'er couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing. She felt that this young man was really honest and funny.
Yun'er's smile...
The stall owners and second stall owners of Dongchang were so frightened that their souls flew away. Their hearts were beating drums. What did this girl mean? She actually dared to sneer at Long Live?
If this were in the palace, this girl would have been beaten to death long ago!
But after being reprimanded by Long Live Lord several times, these Dongchang bosses have learned their lesson and will never dare to do anything without Long Live's instructions...
Sure enough, Mr. Zhen did not take this matter to heart, but complained to Feng Bao again: "You said that you have always hidden some good things since you were a child. You are stingy and petty!"
Feng Bao slowly put down his chopsticks, and an indescribable strange look appeared on his wrinkled old face...
Where should I start with this?
Feng Bao was speechless.
Speaking of which, the dishes provided by most restaurants and restaurants near Chaoyang Gate are similar in taste to those in the imperial dining room in the palace, and most of them are not as good as the imperial dining room.
The menu of the Imperial Kitchen is a collection of the best from all major cuisines in the world, and it also has some famous chefs from all major cuisines, but...
This cheap restaurant is really excellent. All kinds of private dishes appear one after another like magic, and each one is a masterpiece that has never been seen in major cuisines.
Think carefully.
This is so amazing!
Although this restaurant is small and far inferior to those big restaurants in appearance, the shopkeeper here is a capable person and the dishes are always innovative.
This is no ordinary restaurant, but how should I say this? The corners of Feng Bao's mouth twitched and he simply gave up the explanation.
Let him be.
The more I explain, the less clear it becomes.
So Feng Bao also wiped his mouth, looked at Yun'er, and then turned his attention to Shen Lie. He suddenly looked at this young restaurant manager with admiration.
Feng Bao narrowed his eyes and took a serious look at this inconspicuous little shopkeeper for the first time. Sure enough, he made some discoveries during this look.
How clever is his ability to detect and employ people?
Upon closer inspection, he found that although the young shopkeeper had a smile on his face, he had a calm demeanor, a restrained edge and a young and mature look. His demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant, but there was a bit of perseverance in his eyes.
Feng Bao was thoughtful, recalling the several times this young man had behaved in front of him. He did not argue or show off, and he actually knew how to hide his clumsiness at such a young age.
It's not simple.
Feng Bao raised his eyelids and recorded Shen Lie's appearance in his mind. He had the ability to have a photographic memory of people's appearances. This was his ability.
While talking, I watched Mr. Zhen eat and drink enough, and wipe his mouth clean, showing a satisfied look.
Upon seeing this, a Dongchang stall owner immediately took out a piece of broken silver from his arms and wanted to come over to pay the bill, but was glared at by Mr. Zhen again.
Mr. Zhen looked over with majestic eyes, his expression seemed to say, Master, is he someone who cannot afford to eat? Do you need to mind your own business?
The young master finally came out to the restaurant, the fire was lit, the dishes were served, and I was so fed that my nose and tears came down. If I didn't pay in person, I always felt that something was missing.
This one stares!
The Tangtang Dongchang stall owner shivered again in fright, and quickly picked up the broken silver again...
Then Mr. Zhen withdrew his gaze, stretched out his chubby little hand, took out a silver ingot from his sleeve, and slapped it on the table.
Then the young man said domineeringly: "The shopkeeper... pay the bill, don't look for it, the excess will be your reward."
Everyone was speechless.
Shen Lie quickly took the silver tael and weighed it. It must have weighed two taels no matter what. He hurriedly cupped his fists and saluted, and complimented: "Okay, my lord, thank you for the reward."
Mr. Zhen nodded with satisfaction, but he was still in no hurry to leave, and whispered to Shen Lie: "Do you still have the... fried slices you have here?"
Shen Lie was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly: "Do you want to pack up, sir?"
Mr. Zhen was slightly stunned. He quickly understood the meaning of the word "packing" and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, we need to pack."
Shen Lie hurriedly said: "Okay, just wait a moment."
After saying that, he handed the silver to Yun'er, walked quickly into the kitchen, started frying the oil, fried potato chips, and asked the young man to take them with him to eat on the way.
Another half hour later.
Shen Lie, Yun'er, and the waiters stood at the door of the shop and said enthusiastically to Feng Bao and his party: "Sir, please go slowly and come back later."
Feng Bao turned around, walked to Yun'er's side, grabbed Yun'er Bai Shengsheng's little hand, patted it, and said a few words of concern.
It was obvious that he really liked this girl, and Yun'er was also reluctant to leave Feng Bao, smiling sweetly. The old man and the young man really hit it off.
After chatting in front of the store for a few polite words, Feng Bao took another deep look at Shen Lie, smiled gently and said, "Sorry to bother you."
Shen Lie hurriedly said: "I don't dare, Eunuch Feng is too polite."
Immediately, Feng Bao and Mr. Zhen walked towards the entrance of the alley, escorted by their entourage. Mr. Zhen also held a large bag of potato chips in his arms.
As he walked, he ate loudly, and when he reached the entrance of the alley, he turned back and waved to Shen Lie. His naive look made people laugh.
As the group of people gradually left the alley where the cheap shop was located, Shen Lie and Yun'er looked at each other and couldn't help but touch their heads.
Yun'er said softly: "This Master Zhen is a good man."
Shen Lie was speechless.
As they walked into the store, the two of them whispered to each other, guessing the identity of Mr. Zhen. He had a beard, so he definitely couldn't be a eunuch.
Yun'er guessed: "Prince?"
Shen Lie shook his head: "No."
This young master has obviously reached adulthood. According to the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, a prince must leave the capital and live in a fief after reaching adulthood, so this young master Zhen cannot be a prince.
