Blissful Days After Widowhood Chapter 90: Lottery

After Ning Xi got the note, she wanted to leave quickly, so she decided to make a jade palm to offer her life to Yu Qinglin according to her own ideas, and then she could get away.

Well, Jade Palm, it's better to use pig's hand without bear's paw. Ningxi has been foraging around for food during this time, and has not found the existence of Baiyun's pig's hand, so she can launch this idea with confidence.

There is a live spring in the garden of Yufu. Ningxi went to see it. The spring water flows down from the rockery. It is cold and clear and has a sweet taste.

The so-called Baiyun Pork Knuckle is naturally the pig's forefoot. The forefoot has small bones, small stature, tender meat, thick and obvious tendons, and has a firmer taste. It will feel a little too fatty.

Ningxi chose eight good-looking pig front hooves. As long as the front hooves are removed, they should be dehaired, scraped, and the hoof nails removed. They should be boiled in boiling water for an hour. Flush with spring water. After flushing with flowing spring water for an hour, change the water in the pot to boil, add the pig’s trotters and cook for half an hour, take it out and flush it for half an hour, repeat this three times.

Finally, scald it with boiling water, remove it and let it cool, then put it into the sweet and sour sauce to soak for three full hours. Neither sugar nor vinegar can be used with color, otherwise the finished product will not be as white as jade.

The final product is crispy and crispy, sweet and sour, with no fat and soft feeling at all, and the color is as white as jade, fully worthy of the word "Jade Palm".

As for "presenting longevity", Ningxi used fish paste to squeeze a beautiful and beautiful longevity peach. After steaming, it was colored with red soup cooked with amaranth. This coloring is also very particular. Ningxi took a handful A fine and tough brush, lightly dip a little red soup, and then take a bowl next to the longevity peach, scrape the brush lightly on the edge of the bowl, the red soup will turn into a very fine mist and spray on the longevity peach, evenly spread color.

Ningxi dyed the longevity peach into a deep red at the top and the bottom. From a distance, it was almost real. Eight snow-white pig hands were placed in a circle next to the plate, surrounded by red and green pepper flakes. A plate The beautiful and delicious "Jade Palm Offers Longevity" is ready.

After this dish was served, Yu Qinglin was very satisfied, rewarded Ningxi a lot of money, and persuaded him hard, hoping to stay in Ningxi for some more days. Originally, Ningxi really didn't know how to refuse. When the news said that the chefs in the finals were asked to draw the topic of the competition, Ning Xi escaped smoothly.

Before leaving, Ning Xi inquired about the second lady's situation unintentionally. It turned out that the second lady was originally from a brothel, but she was picked up by Mr. Yu for some reason. .

Back to the residence, Jun Qianyu was already waiting for her in the room, Ning Xi handed the paper ball to him intact: "Fortunately, I didn't lose my life."

Jun Qianyu nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."

Ning Xi was always a little uncomfortable in her heart. She didn't want to say polite words, she just lowered her head and wrapped her fingers around her belt. Jun Qianyu stood up: "I'll go first."

Ning Xi couldn't hold back and asked towards his back: "The chess piece you placed in the Yu residence, is it the second lady or the maid next to the second lady?"

Jun Qianyu paused for a while, but did not look back: "It's the second lady."

"Oh, I see." Ning Xi whispered, Jun Qianyu strode away.

Ning Xi's heart is hard to tell. In comparison, her chess piece is much better than the second lady, at least she doesn't need to take her own life to complete the task.

But why? She came to this world and worked hard to survive, was she just to be a **** for him, to help him complete tasks at any time when he needed it?

No, she doesn't want to. If she can avoid it, she would rather not have Sungai Tower and start over in another place, but can he really let her go as she wishes?

"Ningxi, hurry up, the lottery is about to start." Rong Daquan urged her anxiously. The title of the final final came from an ancient book, and some recipes with long-lost recipes were excerpted from the ancient book. The contestants draw lots and do whatever they get. Not only the chefs' cooking skills, but also their creativity, to see who can restore the food that is closest to the original meaning from a simple name.

Ning Xi cleaned up and went to draw lots with Rong Daquan. In addition to Ning Xi and Rong Daquan, the four finalists included Han Xiangfei, a young but extraordinary cook, and a local tyrant, Chen Dexiang.

After all four people arrived, a waiter presented a wooden box with four bamboo tubes in the box, and each person could take one. Chen Dexiang was the most anxious and took one at the beginning. Ning Xi raised his hand, He motioned to Han Xiangfei and Rong Daquan to take it first. The two of them each took one, and Ning Xi slowly took the remaining one.

Pull out the stopper of the bamboo tube, and take out the long-shaped piece of paper that is rolled inside. Inside is the name of the dish that everyone is going to make.

It was Chen Dexiang who was the most anxious. First, he read out the dish he was going to make - "A Hundred Birds Return to the Nest", and someone next to him wrote it down on paper.

Then Rong Daquan and Han Xiangfei also said the dishes they were going to make. Rong Daquan drew "Red Plum Pearl Fragrance", Han Xiangfei drew "Sand Boat Tapping Cui", Rong Daquan scratched his head, this "red He really had no clue what Mei Zhuxiang was. He looked at Chen Dexiang, who was also a fat man, with a little envy. A hundred birds returned to their nests. At least he knew what ingredients to use.

As for Han Xiangfei, as always, he had no expression, and he looked so cool that he couldn't tell what he was thinking at all.

The waiter who was in charge of recording finished remembering the names of the three dishes, and turned his attention to Ning Xi. Ning Xi has always been the most confident one, and it seems that she has never seen a moment when she is anxious. But at this moment, she stared blankly at the note unfolding in front of her, her face pale, and in the autumn weather, there were actually fine beads of sweat on her forehead.

"Ningxi, what's the matter with you?" Rong Daquan called her worriedly.

"Ah?" Ning Xi turned his head to Rong Daquan's side without a focus. He seemed to hear him calling her, but he didn't seem to understand at all.

"Waiting for you, what did you get?"

"Xishi Ru." Ning Xi said slowly.

"Xishi Ru?" Rong Daquan frowned, "What exactly is this?" Xishi knew that the beauties of the Yue Kingdom during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were said to have the appearance of shy flowers and closed moons, and the appearance of sinking fish and geese, but this The Xi Shi in the dish definitely doesn't refer to the beautiful Xi Shi, so what does the **** refer to? Is it a creamy creamy cream, or something like milk? But no matter what it is, it won't make Ning Xi worry like this, right?

What's more, there is still half a month before the start of the competition, and there is time to think about it slowly.

"Ningxi, it's over here, let's go back first?" Rongda said.

"Oh, good!" Ning Xi replied vaguely, turned around and left.

"This side, this side is the way out." Rong Daquan hurriedly pulled her, but before he could finish, Ning Xi almost tripped on the threshold again, so frightened that he quickly grabbed her and didn't dare to let go , has been pulling her back to the residence by grabbing her sleeve.

Seeing them coming back, Meng Shuangshuang greeted them from the room: "How is it, what questions did you draw? But no matter what, it will definitely be difficult for Ningxi, right?"

But Ningxi's eyes were dull and he didn't know what he was thinking, while Rong Daquan had a fat face and looked like he wanted to cry without tears.

"What's the matter, did you really get a difficult question?" Meng Shuangshuang asked in surprise.

Rong Daquan said dejectedly: "I don't know if the problem is difficult, but Ningxi has become like this since the lottery, and I don't know what to do."

Meng Shuangshuang came to support Ningxi: "Ningxi, what's wrong with you?"

Ning Xi shook his head: "It's fine, I want to go back to my room to rest."

"Alright then, I'll help you in."

Entering the room, Ningxi leaned on the head of the bed: "You go out first, I'll just stay by myself for a while."

"Okay, remember to call me if you have anything." Meng Shuangshuang went out worried.

Ning Xi leaned on the bed, closed her eyes, and saw the scene of that day in front of her eyes again.

That day, she also made a Shih Tzu milk.

No one else knows what Xishi milk refers to, but Ningxi knows it all too well, "the king of fish", "Xishi in fish", "the best fresh in the world"...

These dazzling titles all belong to the same fish: pufferfish. An extremely delicious yet deadly poisonous ingredient.

The puffer fish has a peculiar appearance, a cylindrical body, a few hypertrophy belly, smooth skin surface without scales, and a snow-white fish belly, like an inflated balloon, so it is also known as a bubble fish.

Fugu is delicious and difficult to cook, but that is relative to others. For Ningxi, cooking pufferfish is easy.

That day, as usual, she prepared a Xi Shi milk and brought it to the stage with confidence.

There is another plate, which contains the parts removed from the puffer fish, which are also the parts of the puffer fish that contain toxins. They are a pair of fish eyes, a pair of liver, a pair of kidneys, a pair of fish gallbladder, and a pair of fish. A piece of skin, if it is a female dolphin, there should be a pair of ovaries, but that day Ningxi was cooking a male puffer fish, and the testis on the male puffer dolphin was non-toxic, so the first five samples that were brought to the diners for inspection that day , the same as many, all intact.

According to the rules, the first mouthful of puffer fish must be eaten by the chef who cooks it. Ning Xi took a bite and ate it without hesitation. The confident expression on his face had not subsided, but suddenly the abdominal pain was like a churning, from the lips , The tip of her tongue began to become numb, she couldn't speak, and soon she was paralyzed and unable to breathe. In the end, Ning Xi only heard someone shout her name wildly, but she didn't know anything.

When she woke up again, she had already come to this world. She still couldn't understand why such a thing happened when she was fully confirmed that there was no mistake in the operation, and Xi Shi Ru has also become her one. Nightmare, a dish she no longer dared to touch.
