Chapter 6 The God of Cooking
Li Jingyun pulled the boy out of the siege of onlookers and came to the refrigerated area where seafood was sold. From the outside, the two people who seemed to be holding hands intimately were really a pair of golden boys and jade girls. Unfortunately, the "jade girl" was actually an absolute male.
"I'll introduce myself. My name is Li Jingyun. I'm a freshman in the Department of Physical Operations who entered school this year. Judging from your appearance, you should be a Nordic, right?"
"Well, I'm from Finds." The young man was pulled by Li Jingyun awkwardly and squeezed out a sentence. (Finds: After the establishment of the Earth Federation, the administrative division composed of five countries, including Finland (f), Iceland (i), Norway (n), Denmark (d), and Sweden (s), is under the jurisdiction of the Northern Du Administrative Region.)
"Don't you want to tell me your name? I can't always call you crazy, right?" Li Jingyun said with a wicked smile.
"Dante Gustav, eighth grade in the Department of Operations of the All Powers." The boy's voice was reluctant.
"Then I have to call you senior." Li Jingyun was a little surprised. No matter how he thought this child was thirteen or fourteen years old, he had been in Zhongdu College for eight years. Could it be that he had just been admitted to Zhongdu College?
"Why do you mean you?" Dante said indifferently.
"Then it's better to call Dante. It's always a bit uncomfortable to call seniors younger than me." Li Jingyun smiled at Dante, "Since you are a finds person, how about a smoked salmon for dinner? It tastes very good with Dutch-made morels and Diaocao red wine sauce."
"It's pretty good." Although Dante didn't show too much opinion, he actually liked the dishes that Li Jingyun said. There are few authentic Nordic chefs in the Central Government Special Administrative Region, which is related to the Nordic people's preference for comfort and unwilling to move, so Dante rarely eats authentic Nordic dishes here. What Li Jingyun just mentioned was an orthodox Nordic dish, which made him missed when he left home since he was a child.
"That's the decision!" Li Jingyun happily pulled Dante around the supermarket and bought a lot of things. The happy expression made Dante wonder if he had just taken a look. Generally speaking, men are helpless in shopping and have not very high requirements for food. Most people who are keen on buying ingredients are women.
"There are 420 yuan in total." The female student who works as a cashier said politely. As the standard standard currency of the federal government, the federal government has a high degree of value retention, and 420 yuan is enough for a person to eat for half a month. It can be seen how many messy things Li Jingyun bought. Li Jingyun took out his ID card to pay the bill very casually, which is also one of the functions of the ID card - replacing credit cards and banknotes in the old financial system.
"Hey, please trouble you." Li Jingyun put two heavy environmentally friendly bags on Dante's hand.
"Why do I want to help you do this?" Dante said dissatisfied.
"There's no way, I bought too many things on a whim." Li Jingyun was carrying all kinds of bags all over her body.
"Oh..." Dante sighed helplessly and followed Li Jingyun out of the market. The cashiers behind him began to chatter when they saw the two left.
"Ah...What a cute couple."
"Yes, it's like a young couple..."
This is the so-called misunderstanding. Dante will probably be upset when he hears it.
When the two returned to the apartment, Ren Tianmo's room was still locked, and the sound of moving furniture came from inside and Ren Tianmo complained that "really troublesome". It seemed that this guy was really not very good at housework, and even decorating a room could cause such a big deal.
Li Jingyun and Dante also understood that the misunderstanding just now made Ren Tianmo very unhappy, so they didn't provoke him. Li Jingyun walked straight into the kitchen. Ren Tianmo was really angry. He just made a good dinner and regarded it as a pity. Dante was also bored staying alone in the room, so he simply followed Li Jingyun into the kitchen.
"Hey, I said I was treating me to a meal, what are you going to eat?" Dante asked, looking at the various ingredients and seasonings that dazzled him.
"I've thought about this a long time ago." Li Jingyun sported an apron and proudly raised the spatula in his hand. "The main food is Li Jingyun's special Spanish seafood paella, the side dishes are smoked salmon from your hometown, and the soup dishes are Southeast Asia's spicy and sour shrimp soup. As for the desserts after the meal, make a simple Japanese egg roll."
"Ha..." It's certainly good to eat some good things, but hearing such a large string of dishes from all over the world still made him swell.
As soon as the light music was played, Li Jingyun began to get busy on the kitchen counter. Seeing him humming the tune and turning around, Dante, who had already seen Li Jingyun's body, had to admit that Li Jingyun looked like a perfect girl at this time. Slicing and changing the knife, each process was meticulous and full of elegant beauty, as if this kitchen counter was his natural field. The materials processed were of moderate size and completely consistent specifications, and the gap between the same type was micrometers.
All the processing is done, and the olive oil is poured into the pot. When the oil temperature reaches the best balance point, the ingredients are put into the pot. The whole apartment is immediately fragrant, and even the range hood with strong suction cannot be stopped. The rice is fried here, and various seafood ingredients are placed in the steamed shrimps. The oil pan is put into the pot. Various seasonings are added to the pot at the most perfect time, and the pre-mixed broth is injected. The scent of the spicy and spicy shrimp soup is also poured out.
"How to say it... it's really art..." Dante exclaimed a little absent-mindedly, but Li Jingyun, who was trapped in a certain state, did not hear this praise. Li Jingyun always entered a semi-unconscious state when doing housework, as if only the housework itself was left around him. This is also the reason why he failed to find out when he cleaned the room and opened the door and entered.
Art, this is the common evaluation of everyone who has seen Li Jingyun cooking. When Li Jingyun was in high school, he worked in a small restaurant next to the school. As a result, this restaurant with a poor business developed to the point where the customers were full of customers within a few days. A special chef who was originally interested in exploring and accepting disciples came here. After seeing Li Jingyun's cooking skills, he resigned from the position of chef in a five-star hotel with a high salary and willing to take action as Li Jingyun. In the following three years, the restaurant grew several times and became a popular restaurant with a large storefront. After Li Jingyun was admitted to Zhongdu College, it is said that the special chef sighed that he had studied hard for three years and only learned about Li Jingyun's five-year cost. Li Jingyun also became a legendary figure in that high school under the name of "the god of cooking".
In less than an hour, except for the desserts that need to be prepared and eaten immediately after the meal, the staple side dishes and soups were released almost at the same time. The scattered aroma penetrated through the cracks of the door and penetrated into Ren Tianmo's nose, who had not eaten for a long time.
"Cruff", a crack in Ren Tianmo's room opened, and an inauspicious sound came from it: "I'm hungry..."
As soon as Li Jingyun put the food on the dining table, he heard Ren Tianmo's unreliable words, so he smiled and said to Ren Tianmo's room: "Come out, I'm wrong today, I'm just apologizing for this meal."
"This is almost the same." Ren Tianmo immediately broke out of the room and sat at the dining table as if he had just been fooled by Li Jingyun. He seemed to have never happened to Li Jingyun's good deeds.
Sure enough, if you want to tie a man, do you have to tie his stomach first? This is the common idea that emerged from Li Jingyun and Dante.
I have to say that Li Jingyun's cooking skills are indeed god-level. Dante and Ren Tianmo, who were a little resistant to Li Jingyun, tasted his excellent dishes that not only kept the original flavor but also improved innovatively. There was only the "huh" sound left on the table, and there might be a "silly haha" sound - it was spicy by spicy soup, and Thai chautian pepper is not an ordinary variety. Li Jingyun stuttered quietly, looking at the two of them with satisfaction in their eyes.
"Well... I'm full of wine and full of wine and full of wine!" Ren Tianmo slapped his already-supported belly on the chair. Li Jingyun considered that the three of them were men, so the amount of dishes was cooked very much. Unexpectedly, the reserved part was wrapped by Ren Tianmo who seemed to have never eaten in his lifetime, and there was not even a grain of rice left in the pot. Dante, who was frightened by Ren Tianmo's eating method, calculated that Ren Tianmo almost stuffed a kilogram of food into his stomach, which was not a lot of soup. However, Dante hadn't eaten such delicious and authentic hometown dishes for a long time, and it was inevitable that he ate more than usual. Compared to these two, Li Jingyun's small appetite was close to cat food.
"Thank you for the hospitality." Dante thanked Li Jingyun politely. Putting aside the misunderstandings between the two of them before, this meal is indeed worthy of his serious thanks.
"You are polite. If you don't dislike me, you can come to my place to have dinner anytime in the future." Li Jingyun took out a thermos from his large suitcase and poured a cup of black tea drink for both Dante and Ren Tianmo.
"Well, is this?" Dante picked up the cup and took a sip. It was sour and sweet and delicious, and it should have the effect of digestion.
“My homemade sour plum soup tastes pretty good.”
Dante couldn't help but look at Li Jingyun's open suitcase curiously, filled with seasonings marked with various languages and non-perishable food ingredients. There are a few bottles that Dante is familiar with. The Diaocao red wine sauce that made Dante miss very much and is difficult to get in Zhongdu Special Administrative Region is here. Overall, this suitcase is simply a mobile kitchen except that it cannot heat up the food.
"But why do you remember to invite us to dinner? We just met each other, and there was a misunderstanding in front of us." Dante picked up the cup and took another sip.
"A creature like a chef, the food you cook is for others to eat. And you will also feel happy when you watch others eat the food you cook." Li Jingyun said in a gentle tone, and an emotion flashed in his eyes that made Dante feel very familiar, but he couldn't say what it was.
"Hey, it's useless for you to pretend to be kind with me. The duel the day after tomorrow must go on as usual." Ren Tianmo interrupted impolitely from the side.
"I know." Li Jingyun smiled indifferently.
