Delicious Beggar's Chicken!
He did not know how to explain this to Li Xue Yan.
She blinked and said slowly," It's indeed as Madam said. However, the Beggar's Chicken tastes very good. When I make it, Madam will have a taste."”
"Oh, that's good. I didn't eat much just now. I'm not full yet.”
Li Xue Yan's lips cracked open as she said this. Her smile was sweet like a child.
Chu Yi's gaze was attracted by this child-like smiling face. He took some time to stroke Li Xue Yan's forehead.
Li Xue Yan was stunned again.
With the ambiguous atmosphere brewing, the relationship became subtle.
Chu Yi also focused on his beggar's chicken.
He first put away the condiments and then took the chicken he had killed and cut open its stomach. Then, he cleaned up the internal organs and stuffed a lot of things into the chicken's stomach.
Li Xue Yan was naturally stunned.
She had eaten chicken for so many years, but this was the first time she had seen Chu Yi put so much food into the chicken's stomach.
She couldn't help but feel curious." Husband, why did you stuff these things into the chicken's stomach? Wouldn't it taste better if it was cooked with the chicken?”
Chu Yi had been busy the whole time. When he heard Li Xue Yan say this, he explained while he was busy,"
"Who said I was going to cook this chicken? I'm going to roast it and eat it. Moreover, according to what you said, if you cook these things together with the chicken, only the outer layer of chicken skin will taste. If I do this, the taste will be both inside and outside. Wouldn't that be even more beautiful?”
"Oh?" Li Xue Yan said lovingly as if she had learned a lot. Was that so? Wow, does that mean that the chicken is more delicious than usual?”
Chu Yi patted the chicken belly." Of course. I chose the kind of hen with tender meat."”
With that, Chu Yi ran to get some mud.
However, it was not easy to get the chicken, so Chu Yi threw the chicken to Li Xue Yan.
"Madam, help me hold this. I'm going to get some mud.”
However, when he returned, not only did he have mud in his hands, but he also had a few lotus leaves from somewhere.
Li Xue Yan held the chicken neck and stood there waiting for him. Looking at the things in his hands when he returned, her small head was filled with doubt.
"Husband said that the mud is to put out the fire later. Then what are these lotus leaves for? When the chicken is cooked, will it be used to put the chicken meat?”
Chu Yi smiled." You can say so. However, I have to use lotus leaves and mud to wrap this chicken."”
As he spoke, Chu Yi sat at the stone table in the courtyard and began to operate.
He had already marinated the whole chicken and was now waiting to roast it.
Moreover, he had even started a fire in advance.
Tsk!
He was hungry.
He could not wait to eat and drink.
Li Xue Yan had been watching the miraculous operation of her randomly recruited husband from the side. From time to time, she would turn her head to look at Chu Yi.
However, sometimes, she would be lost in her thoughts as she looked at him.
"Husband, you are so beautiful."
Li Xue Yan suddenly said.
Chu Yi was stunned when he heard that. He took a break from his busy schedule and turned to look at her, feeling a little baffled.
"Why did Madam suddenly say this? Could it be that after being married for so long, Furen has only now discovered that I am handsome?”
Li Xue Yan smiled and shook her head," No, I have always thought that my husband is very good-looking. It's just that today, I feel that my husband is even more good-looking than before."”
Chu Yi tilted his head and looked at her again, but this time he didn't say anything. He just smiled and continued to fiddle with his chicken.
This was a relatively complicated program. Chu Yi was focused on it, and so was Li Xue Yan.
They did not realize that the atmosphere had unknowingly become ambiguous.
After an unknown amount of time, Chu Yi finished everything.
They were just waiting for the meat to be cooked.
He clapped his hands, straightened his clothes, and sat comfortably at the table to drink tea.
" Phew." He let out a long sigh. Seeing that Li Xue Yan was still studying, he could not help but smile," Alright, stop sizing me up. Come and sit down. We can eat in a while."”
Li Xue Yan stood up and sat beside Chu Yi.
As for Beggar's Chicken, Chu Yi had dug a pit beside the garden to roast it and buried it in the fire.
Li Xue Yan's face was filled with curiosity. After she sat down beside Chu Yi, she quickly asked," Husband, why did you put the chicken in the fire? Wouldn't it burn?"”
Chu Yi rewarded himself with a cup of tea. When he heard Li Xue Yan's question, he gently tapped her forehead,"
"Little fool, your husband has covered it with mud.”
"Oh."
Li Xue Yan turned her head thoughtfully to look at the field that was emitting smoke and nodded her head slowly.
Chu Yi was amused by her baffling naivety. The corners of his mouth remained curled up as he poured a cup of tea for her.
"Come, drink a cup of tea first. In a while, let Furen taste my cooking. Furen must know that your embroidered ball has attracted an omnipotent husband.”
Time passed slowly.
As time passed, Chu Yi calculated and felt that it was about time. He took the small hoe and dug out his masterpiece.
His Beggar's Chicken could be considered a success.
Moreover, the moment it was dug out of the soil, even if it was wrapped in lotus leaves and soil, the fragrance still overflowed from it.
Li Xue Yan had an appetite just by smelling the fragrance of the meat.
He had never smelled such a fragrance before. It was like food from heaven, not something ordinary.
Chu Yi was also a little excited. After all, it had been so many years since he was able to cook this Beggar's Chicken again. He didn't know if his cooking skills were rusty and tasteless. Would it taste as good as before?
He peeled off the layers of protection on the outside, revealing the golden chicken meat that was glistening with oil.
Chu Yi used the lotus leaves that he had prepared beforehand but hadn't used up yet to carry the chicken over to the table.
"Quick, quick, try it."
Li Xue Yan smelled the meat fragrance and her appetite instantly soared.
She had just eaten, but she still had such an appetite. One could imagine how fragrant the taste was.
After it cooled down, Chu Yi broke off a drumstick for Li Xue Yan.
Li Xue Yan quickly reached out and took a bite. The meat was tender and gravy. It could be said that she had never tasted it before in her life. The color, fragrance, and taste were all there, making one sink into it with one bite.
She couldn't help but give Chu Yi a thumbs up." It's delicious. You're really amazing."”
Chu Yi also ate a chicken wing. He was very satisfied as he recalled the taste that he had not had for a long time.
