Li Qi suddenly remembered that when this high-ranking official left last time, he said that after the crab roe feast was over, he would come and confront those two absolute...
What a misstep!
Li Qi felt very regretful, md, if I had known that he was here to play football today, I wouldn't have told him how to take care of his lover's body.
Seeing that Li Qi was silent, with a gloomy look on his face, the senior official smiled and said, "What? Didn't you tell me last time that you hoped someone would come out to confront these two people as soon as possible? Now look at you like this,
It seems that they don’t want me to show off these two absolutes.”
"Where, where, sir, please don't misunderstand me. Of course I hope you can tell me right. To be honest, those two pairs of tops are so pitiful that they are alone. It's time to find a companion for them." Li
Qi was smiling on his face, but he was crying to death in his heart. This couplet was a bait to seduce those talented people. It had only been hanging for a few months, and he had to be dealt with.
The senior official saw that he didn't mean what he said, so he didn't bother to put it on his words. He followed his words and said, "In that case, I will fulfill your wish."
Without looking back, he raised his right hand and waved it forward.
"Yes, Master."
The attendant immediately came forward holding a bundle of red cloth.
At this time, Li Qi noticed the bundle of red cloth in the entourage's hand and cursed in his heart, "It turns out that your mother was prepared for it. It seems that she made a complete miscalculation this time."
The attendant, with the help of two guards, unfolded the red cloth.
There are two pieces of red cloth rolled inside.
But I saw a piece of red cloth that said, "The smoke locks the willows in the pond, and the branches are hooked in the Han Dynasty."
On the other piece of red cloth is written "Painted with lotus and monk's painting, written in Han ink and Hanlin script".
Li Qi glanced slightly, and the last hope in his heart was completely shattered.
However, Li Qi's silence made the high-ranking official feel a little curious. If these two couplets were seen by those talented people, how could they not be excited?
He looked a little depressed. Although he was a cook, these two couplets were originally written by him. When he saw someone publishing the second couplet, he should have some reaction.
"What? Is there something wrong with these two second couplets?" the senior official asked curiously.
Li Qi was startled for a moment, then nodded quickly and said: "It's OK, it's OK, it can't be better." He added in his heart, I'm your sister.md. I'm so good to you, but you still think about it all the time.
Lao Tzu's stage.
The senior official laughed dumbly and said, "Then why do you look unhappy?"
Can you be happy? You can at least leave me a bottom.
Li Qi forced out a smile and said, "I'm happy, how can I be unhappy?"
When the official saw Li Qi's expression, which was more ugly than crying, he shook his head and said, "Stop talking, tell me the name of the dish on that wooden board."
Zuo Boqing also looked expectant after hearing this.
Li Qi sighed secretly and said with a smile: "Sir, please wait a moment. I will immediately ask someone to hang up these two couplets and take down the wooden board at the same time."
Just when Li Qi was about to call the bartender, the official suddenly waved his hand and said, "No need. You can just tell the name of the dish."
Li Qi was stunned and said: "Why is this? Don't the officials want others to know? That is really a pity."
"What you have in mind is quite beautiful."
The senior official laughed and said: "I just don't want to hang it up now. After I leave, you must hang up this couplet. I will come back to see you in a few days."
Dare to be in love is a waste of time, since you want to pretend to be low-key, then don't tell others. It's really like being a bitch and setting up a memorial at the same time.
Li Qi nodded and said depressedly: "Okay, just do what the high official said." He pointed to the painting of a monk with lotus and said: "The name of the dish behind this couplet is called
'Buddha jumped over the wall...Buddha jumped over the wall?"
The senior official interrupted Li Qi's words and said hurriedly: "You'd better write it down and show it to me."
"oh."
Li Qi was too lazy to ask someone to get pen and ink. He just dipped his index finger into some tea and started writing on the table.
The senior official looked over and saw that Li Qi's handwriting was much better this time than last time. He said curiously: "Huh? Your handwriting is not that bad after all."
Of course, the writing brush is such a soft thing. It is not suitable for a tough guy like us to play with.
Li Qi smiled and said: "Since I was scolded by you last time, I have been practicing calligraphy diligently at home, and now I have finally made some progress."
"That's right, that's right. It's really time to practice your handwriting." The senior official nodded happily.
Zuo Boqing looked at the name of the dish, frowned, and suddenly said: "Master Li, what's the origin of your dish's name?"
"Of course."
Li Qi chuckled and said: "This dish has a great origin. When my grandfather created this delicacy, he couldn't think of a name that could match it. Until one day, I
My grandfather had nothing to do at home, so he prepared such a delicious dish. Suddenly a monk ran over and begged my grandfather to let him try this delicious dish.
This dish is a meat dish, and monks are not allowed to eat meat. How could an upright and kind-hearted person like my grandfather do such an evil thing to undermine other people's spiritual practice, so he decisively rejected the monk. Unexpectedly, the monk told my grandfather that he
It was the monk from the monastery behind my grandfather's house who suddenly smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but jump out of the wall to try this dish. My grandfather was a little moved after hearing this, but he still didn't want to destroy it.
That monk’s practice was so great that I finally rejected him.”
When the official heard this, he sighed and asked curiously: "Did the monk finally eat this dish?"
"Officials, don't be impatient, I will talk about it later."
Li Qi chuckled and continued: "My grandfather thought that this matter was over, but three days later, the monk came again, and he also came with a baggage. It turned out that the monk had returned to secular life. No,
The purpose of becoming a monk was to eat this dish. Now my grandfather had no reason to refuse him, so he made a dish for him. The more the monk ate, the more delicious it became, so he asked my grandfather about this dish.
What's your name? My grandfather saw a bald man with meat in his mouth, so he casually said, "Tell Buddha to jump over the wall." The monk was stunned for a long time before he realized what he was doing. Since then, my grandfather has never seen him again.
He became a monk, and my grandfather even moved away because of this. He felt so guilty that he never jumped over the wall again."
I have to say that Li Qi's ability to deceive people is truly remarkable.
The official and Zuo Boqing were stunned for a moment after being deceived by him, and they were convinced of this.
This story also adds a mysterious color to the Buddha jumping over the wall.
"I never thought that a dish could tempt a monk to return to secular life. What kind of dish is this?" The official shook his head and said in disbelief.
Zuo Boqing also sighed: "It seems that your grandfather's cooking skills are definitely not as good as mine."
Li Qi smiled, did not answer, and laughed secretly in his heart. You must have never imagined that my grandfather was actually a cook in a small restaurant. In fact, the real great one was my father.
When the official heard that this dish was so good, he asked, "Then the price of this dish must not be cheap."
Li Qi shook his head and said: "It's not very expensive, it's only sixty guan."
"Only sixty sticks?"
The official shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not expensive. I don't think there are many people in Tokyo who can spend sixty guan on a dish."
"What the officials said is wrong. Our country in the Song Dynasty is prosperous and the people are safe, and there are countless wealthy businessmen and gentry. Let's not talk about it, but there is one right in front of us."
Li Qi gave the senior official a wink and chuckled, "Do you want to do a Buddha Jump Over the Wall?"
The senior official was stunned for a long time before he realized what he was doing and started laughing.
Zuo Boqing couldn't help but shake his head.
"Don't worry, I will definitely try this dish, but not today. I just tasted the dragon beard noodles, which is enough."
The official smiled slightly and said, "What is the name of this other dish?"
Since this high-ranking official said that he would definitely come and taste the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, Li Qi knew that Sixty Guans would not be able to escape here. And when he heard him ask about this other dish, his face showed hesitation and hesitation.
"You should tell me quickly," the official said displeased, thinking that Li Qi was being mysterious again.
Little did he know that Li Qi was really in trouble this time. He glanced at the senior official, then dipped his hands in tea and wrote two words on the table.
The high-ranking official looked over and said blankly: "No phase?"
Li Qi nodded and said, "Yes, the name of this dish is Wuxiang."
The official asked: "Then where does this dish come from?"
Li Qi sighed: "Actually, there is no recipe for this dish, and no one has ever made it. I figured out the name of the dish from the first couplet."
"Yes, your combination combines the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and the name of your dish is Wuxiang, which is more appropriate, but why does this dish originally have no name, and you said that no one has ever made it?
What do you mean?" the official asked.
Li Qi sighed again and continued to make up the story: "Actually, this dish was created by my grandfather before he died. It is also the most outstanding dish among the dishes he created in his life. It can be said that he combined all his cooking skills.
Everything is poured into this dish. I once heard my father say that my grandfather passed away before he had time to name this dish, so this dish has never had a name. As for why no one has cooked it, firstly because
I don’t have money, and the second reason is because I don’t dare to do it.”
"Don't you dare to do it? Why don't you dare to do it? Could it be that this dish needs to be made with human flesh?" the official snorted.
Human flesh? You think it’s human flesh barbecued pork buns!
Li Qi explained: "That's because cows are needed to make this dish, and they must be alive. At least five cows are needed."
"Five cows?"
The official was shocked and said: "You said this dish requires five cows?"
Li Qi nodded and smiled bitterly: "Not only that, but also ten sheep, twenty pigs, eighty abalones, one hundred black-bone chickens, one hundred ducks, and some ingredients."
As soon as these words came out, the official and Zuo Boqing were shocked.
The ingredients used in this dish can be used to make hundreds of thousands of dishes.
Is this really a dish?
The senior official suddenly felt the urge to curse.
