Because Yu Jinnian is uncompromising on whether the custard is sweet or salty, and he has the momentum of "sweet eggs are the right way in the world!", "If you don't want to eat this friend, don't do it!".
In the end, Ji Hong made a step back. He brought the bowl over and carefully examined the bowl of custard that he didn't know how to describe. In fact, it is not so hard to swallow, but the taste is very tender and sweet, but he has only eaten salted egg custard in the past twenty years, and he does not know that there is such a heaven-defying thing as sweet custard in this world, and he is a little helpless for a while. accept.
Ji Hong raised his bowl and sighed, "That's all."
Yu Jinnian looked at him with a smile on his chin, and after he ate half of the cup, he couldn't take it anymore and asked him, "Is it delicious?"
This is really embarrassing for people to ask questions knowingly. To say it is delicious is contrary to the original intention. To say it is not delicious, and afraid of ruining the kindness of the young man who made eggs for him, Ji Hong hesitated, so he had to say: "Don't have a taste." …”
Yu Jinnian took the bowl, Ji Hong thought he was going to take it away, but who would have thought that he just ate up the remaining half bowl of custard, not only didn't look disgusted at all, but also wiped his mouth and said: "Well, it's obviously good Do you want to eat?" Seeing Ji Hong's speechless expression from the corner of the eye, he laughed again: "Okay, I got it! Next time I will make salty food for you."
"..." Ji Hong became even more speechless. Could it be that he argued for a long time, and was so stubborn, just to let him taste the taste of sweet custard for himself, and then see his expression
It can be said to be very childish.
I don't know if it's because he just ate the sweet soup, Ji Hong looked at him and felt that the taste in his mouth was even better, making people feel sweet all over his body.
It seems that the sweet custard... is not so difficult to accept.
"Ahem..." Ji Hong shook his head and retracted his gaze, suddenly lowered his head and coughed a few times forcefully, his complexion became rosy, probably because he was still ill, his voice was very low, as if a jewel came out of silk The upper part rubbed past with a rustle, and then slid into the bottom of my heart, saying, "Come here."
"Huh?" Yu Jinnian blinked in wonder, leaned over to listen to him, and said guiltily, "What's the matter?" But he said in his heart, isn't it just teasing you to eat a bowl of sweet egg custard? Just kidding, it shouldn't be so Are you mean to hit me
Seeing Ji Hong raised his hand, Yu Jinnian's neck shrank, but he only felt a chill behind his ears.
Ji Hong crushed a little white powder with his fingertips, which seemed to be twisted from his hair, and said, "What is it stained with?"
"Uh...salt particles, I got it by accident." Yu Jinnian glanced at it, and slapped it twice casually. It turned out that he was picking up the salt jar to marinate the ribs, and suddenly felt his scalp itchy, so he scratched it with his hand, probably at that time stained.
Ji Hong said in a low voice: "Frizzled."
With such a calm tone, it's hard to tell whether it's disgust or just a simple evaluation. Yu Jinnian was about to turn around to get the bronze mirror, but Ji Hong parted his hand first, and moved him forward, patiently sweeping away the salt particles on his hair.
Yu Jinnian was dragged staggeringly, and almost fell on him, and now he froze and didn't dare to move. He raised his eyes and saw that Ji Hong was staring at the salt-stained hair, not looking at himself, so he boldly Staring at him for a while, this person's eyes are usually dark, so they look cold and unkind, but when the sun is shining brightly, if you look up at him again, you will find that his eyes are actually A cool color, just not clear, very nice.
Unexpectedly, Ji Hong lowered his eyes suddenly and met his gaze, the two looked at each other, Ji Hong said: "Could it be that there are salt grains in Ji's eyes?"
Yu Jinnian said without changing his face: "That's not true."
Ji Hong asked: "How is that?"
Yu Jinnian said: "Do you know Mr. Qingluan?"
Ji Hong paused slightly, and said, "I heard a little bit."
Yu Jinnian looked at him thoughtfully for a few more times, and said: "Everyone in the world knows that Mr. Qingluan is the most beautiful, the most immortal, and the most talented literary talent in the world. You say... you compare with him, how?"
"How does this compare?" Ji Hong looked at him with a half-smile, as if this question was really funny, and he could show such an unstoppable expression even if he could be called an ice cube spirit, "It won't be so difficult to let Ji himself said brazenly, I am more beautiful, more immortal, and more literary than the number one person in the world?"
Yu Jinnian said: "Maybe, maybe that young master actually has crooked mouth and slanted eyes, he is ashamed to see others, and because of his well-written poems, he was rumored to have a lot of romantic affairs, that he is a banished immortal... You see, the previous dynasty Isn’t that how many refined scholars are misrepresented? Otherwise, why only hear his poems but not see his people.”
Ji Hong was really on the verge of losing his face, he thought for a while, and said, "I'm ashamed, I don't know."
"I know you don't know, just to tease you, after all, no one has really seen what Master Qingluan looks like." Yu Jinnian said with a smile, he collected the bowl and spoon, and was going to make medicine for Ji Hong.
Ji Hong said lazily: "Maybe I passed you by once, but I can't tell."
Yu Jinnian looked back at him, shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "Maybe."
Ji Hong didn't speak, but looked at him with some meaningful eyes.
* *
Ji Hong's illness made Yu Jinnian suddenly realize his benefits. Although Ji Hong is basically disabled at the ninth level in terms of living ability, he can help serve dishes, pass dishes, or collect bills, pay bills, etc. Greeting guests was quite easy, but Yu Jinnian was really tired when he suddenly fell ill these few days, before going to bed at night, he had to bow to him first, begging him to get well soon.
This day, Ji Hong finally got rid of his fever, he was mostly cured, he only had some lingering cough, so he came out and stood quietly in the courtyard.
In the kitchen, Yu Jinnian was making almond tofu with him, which has the effect of relieving cough and relieving asthma, and diced chicken with ginkgo, which can soothe the lungs and replenish the deficiency.
Almond tofu can also be regarded as a famous Taoist order, and it is common in the north, the south, and the north. In the morning, Yu Jinnian had already soaked two taels of sweet almonds in hot water, tore off the red coat, and soaked them together with half a tael of white rice in the sweet well water. Now they are directly used for grinding, and then the dregs are removed, leaving only smooth of the slurry.
Then start the pot, use a small fire, boil the white sugar with a little water, then slowly pour in the white slurry little by little, stirring as you go, to prevent it from falling into the pot, and don't stir it too fast, otherwise it will foam, so be patient , stir until the slurry gradually thickens and emits the aroma of ripe almonds. At this point, you can take it out and let it cool down.
If it is in the hot summer, it can also be made into an ice bowl, which is very refreshing. It's just that Ji Hong is the most uncomfortable at the moment, even if he uses well water to calm him down, Yu Jinnian doesn't dare.
Cut the diced chicken used for ginkgo diced chicken into little finger-sized pieces, and marinate them slightly with batter, sauce, and egg white.
He went to the courtyard to fetch ginkgo fruit, looked up and saw Ji Hong in the courtyard, wearing a white cloak and black boots, looking up at the sun, his expression was calm and peaceful, he really had the solitary demeanor of an immortal, so he put his hands together and bowed.
Looking down, Ji Hong couldn't help laughing and said, "After you worship, Ji's life may be lost by three years."
Yu Jinnian waved his hand: "No, no, there is me. Didn't the great monk say before that I have perfect merit, and I have great merit in my previous life. If you share a little bit with you, it will definitely last for three years!"
Ji Hong smiled, it was the first time he heard that someone wanted to share his blessings with others. He said, "That's all up to Mr. Yu."
"It's easy to say, easy to say." Yu Jinnian was in good spirits, and pointed to the kitchen, "I made almond tofu, and I'm going to fry diced ginkgo chicken. You can eat it yourself. I'll go to the pharmacy later to get some medicine. .”
Ji Hong rubbed his belly with his hands, and said: "I've been moving less these days, and I've eaten a lot, so I've gained two taels for nothing."
"It's so fat, it's so fat!" Yu Jinnian also groped his belly with his hands, and the feeling was indeed much better than before.
Ji Hong looked down at the top of the boy's hair, and couldn't help but raised his hand to rub it again.
Yu Jinnian shouted: "You touch your head again!"
"It's just reciprocity." Ji Hong narrowed his eyes and curled his lips slightly.
Yu Jinnian was so angry that he went back and stir-fried diced ginkgo chicken, and went to the street with his sleeves in his hands to get some medicine. Ji Hongxu leaned on the door frame and watched him go, his white clothes under his cloak to hide it, but his clothes were not plain white clothes either. Looking carefully, the corners and cuffs of the clothes are faintly embroidered with layered leaflets, which shine a little against the sun, as if wrapped in silver thread, and an oval jade pendant is hung around the waist.
His personal belongings, Yu Jinnian, have never been questioned. In the past, Ji Hong kept it a secret, and only wore the usual inconspicuous Tsing Yi. Later, Yu Jinnian vaguely guessed that he had an extraordinary background. Although the two of them didn't tell the truth, they still cared about it. There was a tacit understanding between each other, so Ji Hong didn't bother to cover it up, and took out hair crowns and jade pendants one after another.
It can be seen that although he is a poor little man who ran away from home, he still can't lose face and pays attention to his appearance. And when he took off his clothes at night, he had to fold them neatly, unlike Yu Jinnian who wanted to throw them all over the sky, so he had to go to the room to pick up the clothes the next day.
Yu Jinnian wondered if he had tidying up.
He was wandering to Pingkang Pharmacy with his sleeves on his shoulders, grabbed the decoction that Ji Hong needed to eat, and bought some commonly used herbs for cooking. Hooking the small rope of the medicine bag, I went out to take a look.
Judging from the incoherent statements of the people, he heard that the aunt of a gentry and wealthy family in the county was ill and asked an old gentleman from Shou Ren Tang to see him, but the medicine boy said that the old man had already resigned and went north. He was sent to the capital by someone sent by the county magistrate to see a doctor for the little son of Li Guogong's family.
As a result, the patient refused to comply, and the drug boy refused to let go, so the quarrel broke out.
Yu Jinnian watched the excitement for a while, and thought to himself, that young master of Li Guogong's family is really a big battle. He is sick, and he can make today's emperor spread good posts and recruit famous doctors from all over the world. The little son is really precious.
The Ji Gongzi in the family is also surnamed Ji. He concealed his identity in every possible way before, and even tricked him into saying that Li Guogong's surname is Wang. Presumably he is some kind of nephew or nephew relative of this Li Guogong's family. Longfeng, but I don't know why he sneaked to the south to eat and drink, and lied to him that he was homeless after encountering bandits.
Yu Jinnian slandered, hum, he looks handsome, but he is actually a liar. He also said that the most important thing for this person is to be beautiful, so even if he is lying, people can always forgive him easily... So, he praised and criticized Ji Hong over and over again in his stomach, and finally paused, and then He muttered, but even though he lied twice, he is actually a good person.
People on the road saw him walking all the way, muttering to himself all the way, as if there was something wrong with his mind, they ran away one after another.
But there was someone who was not afraid of anything that day, and insisted on running up to "greeting" with him.
"Hey, Xiaomei... Cough, young master, go to the street to buy medicine alone? Recently, the world has been declining, and people's hearts are not old. Maybe a gangster and robber with malicious intentions will pop up somewhere in the world. The first two days There was a girl a few days ago, who was kidnapped from this long street, and the case has not been solved yet, it is really heartbreaking!" The speaker seemed to be really distressed, and he hammered his chest with the handle of the fan, and then He also said, "My surname is Jiang and my name is Bingren. How dare I ask you what to call the young master? Hey, from this point of view, you and I are going to the same place. How about Jiang being with you?"
what, gingerbread man
Yu Jinnian chuckled.
Jiang Bingren was taken aback for a moment, and his spirit was even brighter. He thought it was a cowardly act by the little beauty, and he fanned the golden silk snow plum fan even more proudly.
Yu Jinnian got up late, looked up at the young gingerbread man, about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing royal blue brocade sleeves embroidered with ruyi patterns, red boots on his feet, with a flying expression, and a pair of almond eyes staring at him Blink and blink. Yu Jinnian was worried that he might have blinked his own soul out of his eyelids before hooking other people's souls out.
He froze for a while, stared at this man for a while, but didn't recognize him. He thought to himself, you are the only one who jumped out in broad daylight, and you are the only one out there. Isn't it you who are talking about yourself
Seeing that he was silent, the man shook his fan and continued to strike while the iron was hot: "That's it! Let's go! Where are you going?"
"..."
Yu Jinnian felt that the more you paid attention to this kind of person, the more troublesome he would be, so he simply ignored him and walked forward. Unexpectedly, the young master seemed to be blind, following him all the way from the east of the city to the west of the city. He almost yelled out the word "little beauty" several times, which shows that his frivolous skills are extraordinary.
Although he is loved by his seven aunts and eight aunts, he is praised for being handsome and handsome all day long, and he wants to call him a girl every day, but he also knows that there is a lot of compliment in it, and he can't take it seriously, but he still never does it. I have never encountered a man who has the cheek to pester an entire street.
Yu Jinnian couldn't help but reflect, could it be possible that after spending some time with that beauty, Ji Hong, I could subtly become more beautiful? Otherwise, if I walked with my back bent like this, could someone come up to strike up a conversation with a dazed eye
Just dragging his chattering, coquettish tail all the way, Yu Jinnian suddenly stopped, turned his head and asked, "Jiang, Young Master Jiang... Do you eat noodles?" He tried his best not to really laugh out loud Come.
The man paused, looked up, and saw a bowl of noodle shop.
Hmm, looks familiar
Ji Hong saw the young man appearing in front of the noodle shop, talking to someone, but the person was blocked by the other half of the door, so he couldn't see clearly, he had already taken off his smoke-colored cloak, and came out wearing only a tea-white long coat, with dark hair. Dispersed, with low eyebrows and soft eyes, when she came out, her clothes fluttered, covering her two straight and slender legs, she really had an outstanding appearance and was very handsome.
The gingerbread man who had followed Yu Jinnian all the way looked up, his eyes immediately shone with brilliance, and then he pushed open the folding fan with a slap, and said, "Isn't this..." After a pause, I really couldn't remember his name. Or maybe he forgot to ask him what his name was. Anyway, it didn't matter, so he coughed lightly, jumped over this paragraph very unnaturally, and said, "Then what... cough, sir, are you all right?"
Yu Jinnian glanced at him and thought, who will stay with you
He raised his head to look at Ji Hong again, and asked silently: Are you and him safe
Ji Hong was speechless, but his face was severely depressed.
But the big gingerbread man didn't notice anything wrong at all. Today, he was lucky to meet two beauties in a row, so how could he just leave? So he took a big stride into the noodle shop, chose a place that was still passable, and sat down, opened his mouth and said, "Don't you want to eat noodles? Let's have Baosi crab roe noodles."
"..." Yu Jinnian resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and said, "I'm sorry, the shop doesn't have Baosi, only belly silk."
The Gingerbread Man didn't react for a moment, he looked at him stupidly: "Tusi?"
Yu Jinnian folded his arms and said, "It's the pig's stomach—ah, it's the part of Mr. Jiang's stomach after eating. This pig's stomach is also on the same place as the pig's body. After the raw stomach is cut back, wow First cut it with scissors, turn out the inner layer, scrape off the blood and yellow mucus on the belly wall, then rub it repeatedly with salt, vinegar and flour, otherwise the belly will be fishy and embarrassing and hard to swallow, then burn it Hot water, wash after boiling, and cut off grease and dirt... "
Jiang Bingren hurriedly said: "Stop, stop."
"What's the matter, I'll finish soon." Yu Jinnian looked at him innocently, puzzled, as if he was sincerely introducing food, "This filth..."
"Stop!" Jiang Bingren covered his ears. He almost wanted to leave, but it was too embarrassing to leave like this, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Well, I want a bowl of scallion oil noodles, okay? ?”
Yu Jinnian was about to open his mouth.
Jiang Bingren broke down and said, "I don't want to hear how oil is made, and I don't want to hear how onions come from! Don't tell me!"
"Oh." Yu Jinnian didn't want to say it at first, but the Gingerbread Man said so, so he pulled the flag along with the wind and reluctantly said, "Okay then."
Halfway through the walk, I looked back at the gingerbread man, as if he had suffered a great blow, and was drooping, dying. He glanced at Ji Hong again, waved to him, and said with a smile, "Mr. Ji, come here."
Seeing his smile, Ji Hong felt chills on his back and his feet were heavy.
The author has something to say:
—
Yu Jinnian: Mr. Qingluan may have a crooked mouth and squinted eyes, so he dare not see people...
Ji Hong: Will you say it again later? ?
—
Yu Jinnian: Hehe, what do you mean by "Don't come here unharmed"
Ji Hong: …
Gingerbread Man: Well, it's none of my business, I'm just a gingerbread man, I'm really just a gingerbread man...
