Cooking is the first thing to eat, and cooking is the soul!
Jiang Pingyang, who was holding the kitchen knife, seemed to have changed into a different person.
He grabbed the vegetables with his left hand and held the knife with his right hand.
The tip of the knife was pressed against the chopping board.
Just by looking at this imposing manner, he looked like a chef.
In the past, Yu Li had seen Silly Zhu cook. After all, Silly Zhu was a real chef and relied on his skills to make a living.
His movements were obviously much more professional than the others.
But looking at Elder Jiang's actions, he seemed to be more professional than Silly Zhu!
Yu Li stared at Jiang Pingyang, her heart filled with anticipation.
In the next second, Jiang Pingyang cut the vegetables methodically.
His technique was exquisite, and every time he slashed, the rhythm was rhythmic.
Moreover, the size of each piece of the celery in his hand seemed to be exactly the same.
Yu Li was shocked when she saw this.
Putting aside Jiang Pingyang's exquisite saber technique.
Just the fact that he was a hundred years old and was as steady as Mount Tai when cutting vegetables with a knife made Yu Li unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
"Old Master, are you really a hundred years old?”
Yu Li pondered for a long time whether she should ask this question.
However, he couldn't resist his curiosity and finally asked.
"Girl, are you making fun of my old man? The deaf old granny in the backyard calls me uncle when she sees me. Do you think my old man is not even a hundred years old?”
"But your saber technique is too exquisite. If it were another hundred-year-old man, he probably wouldn't even be able to hold the saber steadily!”
"Girl, if you want to flatter my old master, just say it. I'm not the kind of person who fishes for fame.”
Jiang Pingyang continued to tease Yu Li as she cut the vegetables.
Yu Li's pretty face blushed again after being teased by him.
Yu Li thought that this old man's speech was too interesting. She thought that he would be an old antique after living for a hundred years, but she felt that he seemed to be much happier than Yan Jiecheng.
The two of them chatted as they looked at the stove.
During this time, Yu Li was amused by Jiang Pingyang and laughed out loud several times.
This was the first time she had been so happy since she married into the Siheyuan.
"Alright, girl, braise this chicken! I've already cut the meat for you. You don't need me to teach you how to stir-fry, right?”
Jiang Pingyang placed the sliced chicken on a plate and handed it to Yu Li.
Yu Li took the plate and nodded readily."Old Master, I'll let you have a taste of my cooking later!”
The big pot that was filled with firewood was already hot.
Yu Li picked up the ladle and scooped a spoonful of vegetable oil into the pot.
A sizzling sound accompanied by white smoke lingered around the stove.
After the oil was heated up, Yu Li took the chopped onions, ginger, and garlic and fried them until they were fragrant.
When the fragrance was released, the plate full of chicken was finally poured into the pot.
As soon as it entered the pot, the fragrance of the chicken immediately wafted out.
Yu Li couldn't help but be a little absent-minded when she asked about the smell of meat in the room.
It had been a long time since she had smelled such a fragrant smell.
In the depths of her love, she actually closed her eyes and sniffed the beauty that made her fascinated.
"Girl, hey! The chicken is going to be burnt by you!"
Yu Li was so immersed in the aroma of the chicken that she forgot that she was still cooking.
Jiang Pingyang, who was at the side, saw that Yu Li did not react for a long time. Just as she glanced over, she immediately urged her.
"Oh no, I forgot."
As soon as Yu Li came back to her senses, she immediately panicked.
For a moment, she actually forgot what to do next.
As she watched the chicken in the pot gradually change color, her heart could be said to be burning with anxiety.
"If you don't flip it over, it's really going to burn!”
Jiang Pingyang urged, but Yu Li still didn't move.
Hence, he could only grab her hand and start flipping the pot with the spoon in his hand.
Yu Li felt her head heat up after being held by Jiang Pingyang. She felt as if she had a fever.
It was clearly her mistake, but Jiang Pingyang did not scold her for being stupid. Instead, she took the initiative to help her solve the problem of almost burning the pot.
This old man was too charming.
Yu Li's face was flushed red, as if she had just come out of a steam room.
At the same time, under the effect of Master Cooking.
The aroma of the braised chicken instantly spread out.
The unconcealable fragrance that filled the house drifted to every household in the courtyard house.
The fragrance soared into the sky, and the beasts in the courtyard were extremely greedy!
At this moment, Silly Zhu was munching on a steamed bun and filling his stomach with the peanuts Qin Huairu had just sent over!
Smelling the fragrance coming from Jiang Ping Yang's house, Silly Zhu's face darkened.
"Damn it, he's about to die, why is he still eating so well?”
Silly Zhu sniffed the chicken fragrance as he chewed on the steamed bun angrily.
"Old man, your cooking skills are pretty good! It means that you're inferior to me!"
Silly Zhu took a few more bites of the steamed bun as if he was fighting with Jiang Pingyang.
However, she was not paying attention and suddenly choked.
"Cough cough cough ~!"
He hurriedly found a cup of tea and gulped it down.
As he filled the water, Silly Zhu knocked on his stomach.
He finally managed to swallow the steamed bun that was choking on his throat, but he put on a sour face again.
"Damn it, if it wasn't for this damn Old Man Jiang, I would have choked to death!”
At the same time, at Yan Fugui's house.
Smelling the fragrance of meat from the neighboring house, Yan Fugui's family was full of pride.
"Dad, this smells so good! I haven't eaten so well even during the New Year, right?!”
Yan Jiecheng was drooling.
"Let's be patient and wait. When the old man finishes eating, the remaining plate of chicken will be ours!”
Yan Fugui adjusted his glasses as he spoke, looking calculative.
"Dad, you're still the best. Thinking of getting Yu Li to help that old man cook, we can get some meat today!”
"Don't say anything. When the time comes, let Yu Li go out often. This old man is rich. In the future, our family will probably be able to have meat at least three times a week!”
..........
The fragrance from Xu Damao's and Jiang Pingyang's houses filled the entire house.
Xu Damao's face was full of disgust as he used his hand to fan the smell.
"Damn Old Man Jiang, you're eating so well that I can't eat anymore!”
"If you don't like it, don't eat it. If you're greedy, it's not like we don't have chicken. Even if you kill it, you can still stir-fry it!”
Lou Xiao'e deliberately mocked Xu Damao.
Hearing her words, Xu Damao's expression immediately turned worse.
"Prodigal woman, that chicken is used to lay eggs. Kill the chicken and you'll lay eggs?”
"Don't blame me if you can't lay eggs. It's just that you don't have the ability!”
"Lou Xiao'e, you…"
Xu Damao humiliated himself and didn't say anything after arguing with Lou Xiao'e.
She threw away her chopsticks and immediately went to bed to sleep.
Yi Zhonghai's family was in a similar situation as the other beasts.
She could not eat at all when she smelled the fragrance.
Although there was still a plate of scrambled eggs on their table.
However, compared to Jiang Pingyang's braised chicken, it was simply pig feed.
"Old Yi, let's buy a chicken to eat tomorrow!”
"Save it. We still have to use our money to support our old age. It's already good enough that we have some eggs to eat!”
Aunt Yi was greedy, but before she could discuss it with Yi Zhonghai, he immediately rejected her.
Helplessly, Aunt Yi could only pick up her chopsticks and take a bite of the egg.
"Sigh, smelling this fragrance, even the scrambled eggs are not fragrant anymore."
..........
Liu Hai's house was now filled with the sound of gongs and drums.
His two dutiful sons, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, started quarreling after smelling the fragrance.
Although they weren't throwing tantrums and rolling around like sticks, they were buzzing like two flies.
"Dad, this taste is too tempting! I really can't take it anymore!"
"When will our family be able to eat such delicious food?”
Liu Haizhong immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks and picked up the bamboo stick on the table.
"I think the two of you just need to be beaten up! It's already good enough that you can eat it, why are you so picky?”
As Liu Haizhong spoke, he immediately whipped his two sons 'heads.
These two brothers were like donkeys. They wouldn't know how to be quiet unless the whip hit them.
As soon as Liu Haizhong roared, the two of them immediately became obedient.
She shut her mouth quietly and started eating.
The Deaf Old Lady was also very greedy when she smelled the fragrance.
"Damn Old Man Jiang, you did such a good job and didn't even know to give me some. Don't you know to respect the old and love the young?"
"Hiss!"
"He seems to be a little older than me. Don't you know how to love the young?”
The Deaf Old Lady kept cursing Jiang Pingyang in her heart.
..........
At the same time, the Jia family was the noisiest family in the entire courtyard house.
Smelling the meat fragrance, Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu seemed to have gone crazy.
"You're about to die, but you still want to eat so well. Are you rushing to eat a good meal before you die?”
"We didn't even get a single cent from his house. Where did this old man get the money to buy the chicken?”
"It's a waste for this old thing to eat meat. There are so many people in my family, so he should bring all the braised chicken for us to eat!”
"The meme is still growing! If it's lacking nutrition, count it on Old Jiang!"
Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu's foul mouths never stopped.
Because of Jiang Pingyang's braised chicken, the two of them almost went to her house to fight with the old man.
Qin Huairu, who was watching from the side, felt extremely embarrassed.
He thought to himself, You two were caught stealing from an old man's house, and you still have the cheek to ask him to give you meat to eat?
How shameless!
Although Qin Huairu thought so, she was also a little greedy.
She had only eaten chicken a few times in her life, and the smell was too good.
If he could take a bite, he would be willing to be a slave!
"Awesome, go to Old Man Jiang's house and ask for some. You're a child. Tell him nicely, and Old Man Jiang will definitely give it to you!”
Jia Zhang-shi couldn't take it anymore, so she could only encourage him to ask for chicken.
The stick was already drooling, and immediately nodded after hearing Jia Zhang-shi's instructions.
"Don't worry, Grandma. If the old man refuses to give it to me, I'll scold him until he's too ashamed to show his face! Let's see if he gives it to us!"
