Chapter 53 Cooking

"Sir, are you going to send troops so soon?" Mrs. Su raised her eyebrows slightly. This Master Sun is really powerful. He took Fusha as soon as he came and is now ready to continue the war.

"Suppressing bandits is the first priority assigned by the king. Naturally, I must not slack off. Tomorrow the army will set off, so I will not interfere with the bank's affairs." Sun Yu said, cupping his hands towards the east.

"Then I will cook some dishes tonight to see you off!" Mrs. Su was stunned. It was a coincidence that she had come. If it had been one day later, she might not have been able to find anyone.

"I'm afraid this is inconvenient. This place is not as good as the city. There isn't even a decent inn. I'll tell the leader of Qi Village to prepare a place for you." This Longmen Village used to be an ordinary village, although it was later reinforced by various villages.

A number of houses have been built for defense, but the accommodation is still very tight. After all, the army is stationed here, and people and materials come and go frequently.

"My lord, this place is good. The army will set off tomorrow, so I can just stay here." Mrs. Su said in a relaxed tone while forcing herself to calm down.

"Xiao Lian, you go and clean it up first." There was still an empty room, so Sun Yu didn't think much and just asked Xiao Lian to clean it up. As for the maids and waiters, Xu Yi had to take care of it.

arrange.

"Sir, I'm going to prepare dinner right now." As soon as Xiaolian left, an awkward atmosphere filled the air. Mrs. Su quickly got up and took Xiaojuan to work in the kitchen.

Sun Yu also felt uncomfortable, so he went out for a walk, and first went to the stable to see Lie Huo. As soon as Lie Huo saw Sun Yu coming, he walked directly across the stable, ran to Sun Yu's side at lightning speed, and rubbed against him intimately.

"Old man, we are going on an expedition tomorrow, are you ready?" Sun Yu led Li Huo back to the stable, chattering as he walked.

When they arrived at the stable, Sun Yu brought a basin and gave Liehuo a good wash. He used to take care of Liehuo himself, but now that he is busy, he does less cooking.

As soon as the wind blew after brushing, Liehuo immediately became more energetic. Sun Yu got on his horse and walked around the camp for a few times.

There is no training today, and the whole camp is as lively as the New Year, with pigs and sheep being slaughtered, people busy with work, and people watching the excitement.

"This pig, dear, I have never seen such a fat pig in my whole life." A soldier looked at the fat pig pulled out of the pig pen and exclaimed.

"Who says it's not? It's at least 140 or 50 pounds. Darling, this fat fat will make me salivate on the floor." Another soldier wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and had to wait until night to eat.

"I bet this fat is at least half an inch thick."

"Nonsense, I'm not blind."

...

Sun Yu, who was riding on the horse, smiled and shook his head. In this era, people are rushing to eat fat meat, but in future generations they will all eat lean meat. In the past, pigs were active and had less fat. Now, castrated pigs eat and sleep.

, sleep and eat, and gain weight very quickly. In another two months, I will probably have gained 200 pounds.

.

"Cut a piece here for me." After the pig was slaughtered, Sun Yu stepped forward and pointed at the five-flowered ribs.

"Okay, sir, please wait a minute." The soldier from the transport camp who was in charge of killing the pig grabbed an ax and chopped it into pieces, cutting more than three kilograms of it.

It had been a while since I had eaten braised pork, and I was really greedy. Sun Yu planned to go back and make a whole pot to try it.

"Sir, the meal is not ready yet." Mrs. Su saw Sun Yu walking in and said quickly, thinking that Sun Yu was too hungry and couldn't wait, so she came to the kitchen to urge him.

"Don't worry, I'll cut a piece of pork and come back. I'll give you some tonight." Sun Yu washed the pork and put it on the chopping board.

"Sir, this pork is not delicious." When Mrs. Su heard that it was pork, she immediately lost interest.

"This is different. You'll know when it's ready." Sun Yu smiled mysteriously, picked up the kitchen knife and chopped it up. Although this pig was a big fat pig in the eyes of others, Sun Yu, who has the memory of future generations,

In my eyes, it's nothing.

"Your Excellency, you still know how to cook? Aren't you a gentleman who is far away from the kitchen?" Mrs. Su's eyes were slightly stunned, how could Sun Yu still know how to cook?

"These are all hypocritical ways. Confucius said: Food and sex are the same! Back then, I followed the master all over the mountains. If I wanted to eat something good, I had to do it myself. Not to mention cooking, every step from catching to eating

You have to do it by yourself. I remember that winter, I couldn’t find anything delicious. After searching for a long time, I met a big insect..." Sun Yu felt funny when he thought about his life in those years.

Think about finding food to fill your stomach, and don’t think about anything else. It seems like you will never be full.

"Then what?" Mrs. Su, who was listening intently, asked quickly. It was scary to think about encountering a tiger in the wild.

"What can we do? We were both very hungry. We had a fight and got even hungrier. No one could do anything and the other couldn't help each other. We went home separately." Sun Yu still remembers the resentful look in Tiger's eyes when he left. He must have been the same at that time.

It's in front of me, but I can't eat it.

"This gluttonous concubine has learned the lesson. Is it possible that you are still lustful?" Mrs. Su smiled after hearing this and became more courageous.

"Of course, do you know how to tell whether a man is lustful?" Sun Yu thought of a joke from later generations and borrowed it.

"Is there a way to do this?" Mrs. Su was very curious. If there is such a way, she must learn it carefully.

"Just put your finger under the man's nose and try it." Sun Yu smiled and moved his nose forward.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Su put her white and tender fingers tremblingly under Sun Yu's nose. If she wasn't really curious about Sun Yu's method, she would definitely not dare to make such an outrageous move. It was too ambiguous, and even Xiaojuan was shy.

turned his head.

"Are you breathing?" Sun Yu asked.

"Yes." Mrs. Su nodded, her pretty face flushed.

"Then you must be lustful, you can't be wrong." Sun Yu said with a smile.

"Sir, you are too..." Su

The madam bent over with laughter, unable to think of the right words for a moment. Xiaojuan also laughed with joy. She is very straightforward.

"My lord, that's not right. What's the explanation for Liu Xiahui?" Mrs. Su thought of Liu Xiahui who was still in her arms and asked immediately.

"Luxury does not necessarily mean that we act recklessly. We read the books of sages just to learn etiquette. If we act wantonly, how will we be different from wild beasts? The reason why people are human is that they know how to abide by order and restrain their desires." Sun Yu did not doubt Liu Xia.

The authenticity of Hui's story, after all, there are many people who can restrain their desires.

"Young Master is a great talent, but I am not as good as this concubine." After hearing this, Mrs. Su fell in love with Sun Yu even more.

"It's on fire, the meat is about to be cooked." The meat was almost cut, and Sun Yu prepared some more ingredients. If there was no soy sauce, he would use bean paste instead. If there was no sucrose, he would use maltose and add some honey.

"Simmer over low heat." When all the ingredients were put into the pot, Sun Yu added some water and ordered Xiaojuan who was lighting the fire behind the stove. Xiaojuan nodded in response.

The aroma of meat spread through the pot lid, causing Xiao Lian who was cleaning up in the room to run over to take a look, thinking that Mrs. Su had such skills. But it turned out that she was cooking in person, and she was relieved. Mrs. Su suddenly

Come on, it was a bit directed at herself, and Xiaolian naturally felt a sense of crisis.

"Come, sit down." After the food was served, Sun Yu invited the two maids to sit down. It was too boring for two people to eat.

"Sir, please try my handiwork." Mrs. Su gently lifted her sleeves and picked up a piece of fish for Sun Yu, specially choosing the fattest piece on her belly.

"Juyao's craftsmanship is very good, and her lips and teeth are fragrant. Come, try the braised pork I made." Sun Yu ate a piece of fish and picked up a piece of braised pork. The taste was not as good as that of later generations, but it was also very good. At least it smelled bad.

Much less.

"It's fat but not greasy. It melts in your mouth. Your cooking skills are amazing." Mrs. Su, who never eats pork, couldn't hold back the smell. She took a piece and put it in her mouth. It was indeed delicious.

"It's just that the world is not peaceful. Otherwise, I would be in Jiangning. Opening a restaurant would be a good living." Sun Yu was not bragging, relying on the memory of later generations, he cooked two specialty dishes and started the restaurant business.

It's not bad. Besides, there is a big trick, which is high-concentration distilled liquor. However, food is tight here. If you make it yourself, people will starve to death.

"I don't think you are willing to be a merchant." Mrs. Su drank a full glass and sighed with emotion. The merchant seemed to be rich, but in fact his status was not high.

"You can't be stable without farmers, and you can't be rich without business. It's just that the world is a bit more difficult. If the world is peaceful and the officials govern clearly, what will happen to merchants?" Businessmen have a low social status and are even more oppressed in troubled times. Mrs. Su complained,

It's also common.

"Is that really going to happen?" Mrs. Su was a little drunk.

"Of course" Sun Yu secretly muttered in his heart, you have never seen it in the future, he is called an entrepreneur, and he is treated with courtesy wherever he goes.
