Chapter 111 Roasted Sweet Potatoes
"Ruan Zhan and Han Jun were just running errands inside to help." Liu Yuan said after walking out of the Dali Temple prison, "This mountain man Zhou Dagui may be related to the two people who stole people, but they are not related to these two people." They seem to have nothing to do with each other! Then why did these two people die?"
Lin Fei didn't speak, but suddenly raised his head and looked at the open space not far ahead.
Wen Mingtang, Ji Caimai, A Bing and Tangyuan were gathered around the "oven" where they made roast duck, chatting over tea.
In the "oven", a sweet aroma of sweet potatoes was pouring out from inside.
Sweet potatoes are not delicate and valuable items, they can be found everywhere. You can eat it by boiling it in water or steaming it in a steamer or something.
I heard that some villagers in the mountains will also light a fire to roast sweet potatoes and eat them. I heard that the roasted sweet potatoes taste very delicious.
Liu Yuan had never eaten it before, and when he suddenly smelled the smell, he almost subconsciously reacted: "Roasted sweet potatoes?"
The few people who were chatting turned their heads and looked towards them. Wen Mingtang nodded and said, "It's roasted sweet potatoes." After that, he stood up and looked into the oven. After looking for a while, he said, "It should be ready."
Ji Caimai on the side couldn't help stroking his beard when he saw a few people: It's really better to come early than to come by chance. They have been waiting here for most of the day, and these people will be fine as soon as they arrive.
Originally I only wanted to feed a few people, and if there were any leftovers, I would take them home. Now that people are here, they have to give it.
Those who saw it had their share, and oil paper was prepared nearby. Wen Mingtang picked out the sweet potatoes from the "oven" and wrapped them in oil paper bags and handed them to everyone one by one.
Liu Yuan took it and shouted "hot" while blowing it eagerly, and then bit it.
Wei Fu, who is very particular about health preservation, also took one over. Looking at the girl who was busy in front of the oven, he paused and couldn't help but said: "As the old saying goes! There is no shortage of food around the cook."
And this old saying? Liu Yuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "How come I haven't heard of it?"
Wei Fu was honest and said with a smile: "I made it now!"
Regardless of whether it was freshly prepared or not, these roasted sweet potatoes, which were roasted hard on the outside but soft on the inside, were something none of them had ever tasted before.
"I usually eat very delicately, but I rarely see anything like this." Liu Yuan held the roasted sweet potato and tore a hole open with his mouth, revealing the golden, soft and waxy interior, filled with hot air. It emerged from the sweet potato, and as the skin was torn open, the sweet aroma of roasted sweet potato spread into the air.
Because it had just come out of the "oven", not only was it hot to hold in my hands, but it was also very hot to bite into. However, roasted sweet potatoes probably have some "evil" properties. No, not only roasted sweet potatoes have evil properties, but all the food made by Master Wen are also very "evil". Even if they are hot in the mouth, they still make people think. Open your mouth and bite it.
While gasping for air as it was hot and "hissing", I couldn't bear to spit out the sweet potato fillings that burned my tongue. The fillings were sweet and soft in texture with a slightly waxy texture. With a slight sip, it melted in your mouth like mud. .
Not everyone is as impatient as Liu Yuan. Lin Fei took the roasted sweet potato, but did not eat it. Instead, he held the roasted sweet potato and watched everyone eating the roasted sweet potato while burning their mouths.
When everyone had almost finished eating, he said to Liu Yuandao, who had a circle of yellow indentations from roasted sweet potatoes on his mouth and had not had time to wipe them off: "Bring Zhou Dagui to Dali Temple tomorrow."
Liu Yuan nodded in agreement, and then Lin Fei left with the roasted sweet potato that he hadn't eaten at all.
"Lin Shaoqing..." Ah Bing, who was still licking his mouth after eating, couldn't help but said, "It's really a waste if you don't eat, why not give it to me!"
"How did you know that Lin Shaoqing doesn't eat it?" Hearing this, Tangyuan, who had not finished the last bit of roasted sweet potato in his hand, said, "Maybe after seeing you eating like this, your face is full of indentations, I think roasted sweet potato is something It doesn’t taste good to eat, so I ran back and hid it secretly to eat!”
As soon as these words came out, even Liu Yuan, who was wiping his mouth, couldn't help but nod: "Maybe it's really like this! I have been waiting to come to Dali Temple for so long, and I have never seen Lin Shaoqing looking as embarrassed as we did. !”
Although Shangfeng didn't talk much on weekdays, he never showed his embarrassment in front of others.
"Really?" Wen Mingtang, who was peeling sweet potatoes slowly at the side, thought for a moment and said, "But I always feel that when he looks at the roasted sweet potatoes, he doesn't look like he is greedy, but more like he is thinking about something. Maybe he is taking it back to his family to eat. Of!"
Well... everyone doesn't know.
After all, once the gate of Jingyunhou Mansion is closed, no one can see the people and things inside.
…
Although he couldn't see it, Wen Mingtang really guessed it right this time!
After leaving Dali Temple, Lin Fei did not return to Jingyunhou's Mansion, but went directly to the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion opposite.
Although Lin Fei's biological father, Marquis Jingyun, said that he had another mansion after becoming a marquis, he probably wanted to be closer to his family. When he was choosing a mansion, he directly chose the vacant mansion opposite to build a mansion.
Therefore, it was only a few steps for Lin Fei to find Duke Jing.
After knocking on the door, the concierge quickly ushered the person in after seeing clearly who was coming, then pointed in the direction of the main hall and said: "Second Young Master, the Duke is in the main courtyard!"
Lin Fei nodded and said, "Take me over to see my grandfather."
When he saw Duke Jingguo, he was sitting alone under the tree in the main courtyard with a pot of tea beside him. The teacup in front of him was filled with tea. Because the teacup in which the tea was poured had not been moved for a long time, it even Ashes fell.
Duke Jingguo didn't care about this, but sat there, seemingly lost in thought over the tea.
"Grandpa!" Lin Fei walked into the courtyard and called.
This sound woke up Duke Jing who was in a trance. He came back to his senses and looked at Lin Fei who walked in. A soft color flashed on his solemn face: "A Fei is here!"
Lin Fei said "hmm" and walked to sit in front of Duke Jingguo.
The sweet aroma of roasted sweet potatoes poured into Duke Jing's nose. Duke Jing raised his eyebrows, looked at Lin Fei who was sitting opposite, and said, "Take it out!"
Lin Fei pursed his lips, and a smile appeared on his rarely smiling face. He took out the roasted sweet potato wrapped in oil paper from his sleeve pocket and pushed it in front of Duke Jingguo.
Duke Jingguo looked at the roasted sweet potato in front of him, picked it up and asked Lin Fei: "Is there a vendor on the street selling this?"
Without waiting for Lin Fei to answer, he continued to ask: "Where is the stall? How many days will it be open? Or is there someone who has the vision to open a roasted sweet potato shop?"
Lin Fei looked at Duke Jingguo who was holding roasted sweet potatoes and asking questions enthusiastically and shook his head, saying: "None of them."
When Duke Jingguo heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in disappointment. After tearing open the skin of the roasted sweet potato and taking a bite, he sighed: "Well, I'm the only one who cares about the taste! Where did this roasted sweet potato come from?"
Lin Fei looked at Duke Jingguo, paused for a moment, and said, "The cook of our Dali Temple public chef made it herself."
Duke Jingguo's expression suddenly changed.
