Chapter 866 There is a Second Move
"belch--"
Gu Sanqiu leaned back in his chair with his head tilted back, opened his mouth wide and let out a long burp.
Dad was just chewing slowly, and he basically ate the whole pot of Supreme Immortal by himself.
Well, even the walnut portion.
"I'm stuffed."
"Well, if you're full, just sit down and digest your food. I'll make you some tea after I wash the dishes."
Gu Sanqiu nodded casually, too lazy to move.
The corpse is digesting.
Even one's own body needs to digest slowly, so you can imagine how large the meal is.
Well, it may be quite toxic. It is very dangerous to eat aniseed as a meal.
Zhongli glanced at Gu Sanqiu calmly, then sent a message.
"You even finished the soup. How about guessing how much you ate in this meal?"
"No need to guess."
Gu Sanqiu lazily transmitted his voice: "Normally, people eat vegetables with rice. I am eating vegetables with rice. Fortunately, the girl knows my appetite and prepared enough, otherwise I would just eat vegetables."
The amount of food for hundreds or thousands of people may be a bit exaggerated, but the amount of food for dozens of people is definitely up to standard.
"Well, I just felt a chill. The bad water in that drunk poet's belly may have started to churn again. Can you find some time to go to Mondstadt?"
Gu Sanqiu changed his posture: "Dad, don't you think this might be the girl's nagging at you, or you were also drugged by the bowl of food?"
"From a common rational point of view, it does not seem impossible."
Zhongli thought about the details carefully and realized that compared to his silly son, he was indeed the typical one who slacked off and ate little.
"Here you go. This is the fine tea that this hall master personally bought at Qiaoying Manor."
Walnut poured tea for the two of them with a smile, then turned and went back into the kitchen, coming out with a bowl of steaming food.
besides?!
I really need to find a reason to go out and exorcise demons, girl!
The sudden and intense psychological activity made Gu Sanqiu feel nauseous and a little dizzy.
Gu Sanqiu calmed himself down and said, "Tea has been served. Is there anything else to eat? Is there something wrong with the order?"
"Who said this is for you to eat? This is for this hall master to eat."
Walnut sat at the table: "La la la, let's eat boiled fish with shrimp dumplings~"
Zhongli, Gu Sanqiu: ...
The spicy and fragrant boiled fish paired with the light and elegant shrimp dumplings, this combination is like the yin and yang of salty and sweet tofu pudding, enough to make those who like different flavors collectively outraged.
The combination that seemed rather strange in the past now smelled exceptionally harmonious and delicious. It turned out that the medicinal power of that pot of Supreme Immortal's medicine was too strong, so strong that they even had hallucinations.
Too much, too much!
This girl definitely did it on purpose!
Gu Sanqiu really wanted to grab Hu Tao's ears and give her a lecture, but he was afraid of choking her.
The bigger reason is that I am too lazy to move.
Zhongli asked, "Why didn't the hall master eat the pot of Supreme Immortal just now?"
Hu Tao said seriously, "That's the dish that I spent a lot of effort to make for you, so of course I have to give it to you. I'll just eat something casually."
What a great saying: “Just eat whatever you want”.
The reason was sufficient, so sufficient that Zhongli took a sip of tea.
The three of them were sitting at the table in silence, and even Hu Tao ate with a rare bit of ladylike manners.
Although her eating habits in the past were not as unrestrained as those of Gu Sanqiu and the others, they were still far from being ladylike. But now Hu Tao has done just that. It can only be said that she just doesn't want to do that normally.
Or maybe this girl was doing it on purpose. Chewing slowly would prolong the time and double the torture on Gu Sanqiu and Zhongli.
Walnut was very calm as he finished eating despite two stares, without any sign of pressure or guilt.
"Qiuqiu, you eat the most and your cooking skills are pretty good too. Tell me if there is anything you can improve on."
Areas for improvement…
How about we order takeout later, or go directly to the cafeteria of Shijinhui to eat. I will pay for the meals at Wangshengtang.
I know a friend at Inazuma who can’t cook. Maybe you two will have some experience in this area.
After all, from a normal perspective, the finished product of the two people's cooking should not be edible, because only the results matter.
The relationship between him and the girl's family is so good that they can be said to be like brothers, after all, the bond they have held for so many years has been there.
When it came to their generation, Gu Sanqiu almost doubted whether his family's talent and divinity regarding "dark chefs" and "abyss cuisine" had been transferred to the girl's family.
The portion and taste of this dish would definitely make Guoba tremble with fear and cling to Xiangling's thighs and pray for his life.
Of course, such a suggestion cannot be made out loud, because the girl will jump over and scratch your face.
"The flavor of the spices is a bit too strong, even a bit pungent. If you want to make it again in the future, I suggest you go to Xiangling to learn more advanced spice ratios. This way the dish will be better."
Gu Sanqiu spoke carefully: "As for the ingredients, you should have thrown all the ingredients into the pot and stewed them. You didn't take into account the cooking time and methods of different ingredients. Some ingredients need to be processed to the level of semi-finished products in advance if you want to fully integrate them. This needs to be paid attention to."
"After that...use less seasoning, that's about it."
Fortunately, there was enough rice to share the flavor, otherwise Gu Sanqiu would definitely imitate the legendary boss and swallow the river and drink the water.
If he took a bite, the Pure Water Elves would call the police and ask the Qianyan Army to arrest the person.
Hu Tao took out a small notebook and wrote it down carefully.
"Okay, I've written it down. Qiuqiu is indeed the one who can give so many useful suggestions after just one meal."
"Generally, this kind of dish is more complicated and troublesome to prepare. If you are interested, it is best to start with the simplest one."
"I have memorized it completely."
Hu Tao patted Gu Sanqiu's shoulder confidently and said, "I will make another pot after I have successfully completed my further studies with Xiangling. Then I will let you, Qiuqiu, taste the fruits of my improved cooking skills!"
Gu Sanqiu now really wants to persuade Hu Tao to order takeout, and is even considering whether to bring this unconventional food, instant noodles, to Teyvat to make a splash.
With his current financial strength, as long as he does it seriously, he can absolutely ensure that the packaging is consistent with the actual product and the quality is excellent.
But the topic could not go on because Golden Retriever suddenly came to visit.
He is going on a trip again, also known as the "Making Money to Pay Back Debts and Make Up for the Cultivation Resources Campaign".
"Sanqiu is here too."
Paimon waved to everyone, then his nose twitched and his face instantly turned green.
What, what taste.
"Where are you going next?"
Kong thought for a moment and said, "Let's revisit the old place. I still want to travel to Mondstadt for a while, and then I might go directly to Fontaine or Xumi."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and said, "Since you can fly now, why don't you fly to other countries first to collect the seven elements?"
“I’ve thought about this question, too.”
Kong laughed dryly: "But after becoming an immortal, I always have a feeling that if I act so hastily, I won't be recognized by the elements."
“I see.”
Gu Sanqiu nodded: "It just so happens that I also need to go out for a while, so I'll give you a ride."
"I'm leaving, girl. Go to bed early after get off work and remember to cover yourself with a blanket."
"Tsk, why are you becoming that nagging sister Qiuqiu again? I know—"
Hu Tao watched Gu Sanqiu leave with a long tone, and they parted only after the three of them arrived at the Yingbin Bridge.
Not only can the golden retriever fly, but setting up an anchor point is no longer as tiring as it used to be, making it very convenient to go back and forth.
It was so convenient that Gu Sanqiu wanted to persuade him to open a courier business.
Then, it’s your own time.
Gu Sanqiu put on a black robe and soared into the sky with a spear in his hand. He wanted to help Brother Xiao relieve some of his work pressure.
There will not be any remaining demons in Liyue today who dare to show up and cause trouble.
