Dominate the ancient academy

Chapter 290 Another day of missing sesame!

Shu Xiaoxiao won the competition. After listening to the summary of the headmaster and the chief priest, she was in a very good mood. Then she discussed with Su Shiche and Qian Jinbao how to celebrate tomorrow. As they were talking, they felt hungry, after all, the amount of exercise today was really great.

Today, not to mention Fang Yuchu, even Zhenzhu came to join in the fun. The back mountain must be deserted now. Several people looked at each other and said with difficulty: "Let's go to the cafeteria to have a look. I heard there are steamed buns. At worst, we can just eat a steamed bun?"

Su Shiche rubbed his stomach and agreed helplessly: "I think it's okay."

No matter what, this is a friendly exchange between the two academies. The food in the cafeteria is much better than usual. Although it still doesn't meet the eyes of these young masters, it's pretty good after all.

The three of them went to the kitchen, where everyone was busy. However, the dishes, made from a big pot with little seasoning, were tasteless no matter how better than usual. Shu Xiaoxiao, who was used to Fang Yu's cooking, had no appetite at all. She once again thanked Senior Brother Yun for his generosity in giving her a house before she left, otherwise the food in the cafeteria alone would have forced her to drop out of school.

If there weren't so many people, she would have eaten the food in the space, but there were so many people today, so she gave up. It was a pity that she didn't have time to eat the delicious food in her space.

Fortunately, the steamed buns had just come out of the pot, they were soft and white, exuding a faint wheat aroma and tasted very good. Several people each took a big white steamed bun, but they just couldn't bring themselves to eat the dishes.

Shu Xiaoxiao was used to the cooking of Fang Yuchu. It was easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality. She tasted the dishes in the cafeteria and found none of them tasty. They were no different from boiled dishes. Su Shiche and Qian Jinbao were just imagining the delicious pig-killing dishes. Suddenly, facing these dishes, they wanted to lament for themselves. Why was it so difficult to eat good food in the academy? What kind of suffering was this? Must they bear it?

Aunt Kong was laughing so hard watching on the side. They were really great young masters. Just eating the big white steamed buns fresh from the pot was a pleasure. These young masters had such expressions, but she also understood their situation. They could not be compared with the young masters in their academy. They would all be great masters in the future.

Especially these young masters, they are either delicate and handsome or white and plump, and they are likable at first sight. Their academy is so big, and there are not many who are so good-looking. It is really pitiful to see them frowning.

Thinking of the wild onions and garlic in the kitchen, Aunt Kong chopped them up quickly, added some fine salt, stirred them evenly and put them in front of them: "Young masters, you can try this. My daughter made it. It tastes good when sandwiched in steamed buns."

Their Emperor Daning is wise, and the lives of the people are getting better and better. Since the appearance of fine salt, the price has become cheaper and cheaper, and almost every household can afford it. It is not a big deal to use some fine salt, and now the fine salt is pure white and has no bitterness. It tastes good even if only salt is used. If the young masters were not so good-looking and one of them had bought their chickens, she would not dare to show such courtesy.

Su Shiche, Shu Xiaoxiao, and Qian Jinbao all shifted their gazes to the porcelain bowl on the table. The combination of white and green, plus the evenly stirred fine salt, looked particularly appetizing.

Shu Xiaoxiao directly scooped a spoonful and added it to the steamed bun, took a bite, and a satisfied look appeared on her face. This is a cold dish without sesame oil. It is definitely better than those dishes.

Another day of missing sesame!

Sure enough, the fine salt grains, the spiciness of the wild onions and wild garlic, and the softness of the steamed buns really whet one's appetite.

"Thank you, Auntie. This is especially delicious. Your daughter is amazing." She gave a thumbs up while saying it was light and not greasy, delicious and convenient.

Seeing her like this, Su Shiche and Qian Jinbao quickly opened the steamed buns, each scooped a spoonful, took a big bite, and immediately showed a satisfied expression on their faces.

"Auntie, this is really delicious. It's much more appetizing than these dishes."

Aunt Kong said cheerfully: "As long as you like the food, you can eat first. If it's not enough, call me. I'll go get busy first." In the kitchen, no matter how busy it is, there is always work to do. It would not be good if the manager saw you when you are idle.

Several people devoured the food ravenously, and soon each of them finished two large steamed buns: "This is still the most enjoyable to eat. I would be willing to eat this every day."

"These wild onions and wild garlic are just condiments. It's okay to eat them occasionally, but you'll get sick of them if you eat too much. Besides, there aren't that many wild onions and wild garlic for our canteen to eat."

Wild onions and wild garlic are pungent and have a strong odor. They are okay to eat once or twice a day, or as a side dish, but if you eat them every day, your mouth will not be able to bear it.

She used to like strong-flavored foods like garlic and onions, whether they were served cold or eaten alone. Some of her classmates couldn't believe that these things could be eaten raw, but she just liked them because they were tasty and could help relieve greasiness.

As a result, after eating it for a long time, my mouth felt numb and stiff, and I had bad breath. Brushing my teeth was useless, and I had to stop doing it for a while before it slowly recovered.

So it is enough to eat it occasionally. Moreover, if the students in the academy knew that this thing would cause bad breath, I believe they would not touch it no matter how appetizing or delicious it is. After all, appearance is still very important at that time. If you smell of garlic when you open your mouth, you will definitely be laughed at and your career may be ruined. Therefore, these scholars will not accept this kind of thing even if it tastes good.

"That's fine. It's nice to eat it once in a while."

"Auntie, can our kitchen prepare pig-killing dishes?"

The dishes in the kitchen have been prepared, and the Imperial College has made it clear that they will not have meals here, so Shu Xiaoxiao and the other two have time to dawdle here. There is also tomorrow's pig-slaughtering dish, and even though Chef Fang is in charge, they still have to ask about it. After all, Chef Fang doesn't look like he has ever been involved in pig-slaughtering dishes.

"Slaughtering pig dish? Of course it can be made. Our chef said before that he has made slaughtering pig dish, and the whole village praised his cooking skills. Don't think that slaughtering pig dish is just a pot of stew, but it also depends on the cooking skills. I ate it once when I was young, and I can't forget the taste." As he spoke, he closed his eyes slightly, feeling a little nostalgic.

When she was a child, her family was poor and she had never eaten anything good. One year, a wild boar entered the village and the whole village worked together to subdue it. Of course, many people were injured and blood was everywhere. It was scary to look at, but there was a wild boar, which meant meat! Everyone was happy again.

In addition to distributing the wild boar to the villagers, the village also prepared a pig-killing dish. Every household brought out some wild vegetables, seasonings, etc., and the village aunt was in charge of cooking. The meal was so delicious that the whole village drooled around the big pot. It was also a rare time for her to eat a full meal, so she remembered it very clearly.

"Who is the chef? We will carry two pigs tomorrow and make pig-killing dishes." Su Shiche said excitedly. If someone can cook it, then it will be fine.

"Young masters, wait a moment, I'll go call the chef." Aunt Kong said quickly. Speaking of butchering pig dishes, she was also a little greedy. Besides, how many butchering pig dishes could be made from two pigs!
