Chapter 107： tasty

Chapter 107 Delicious

Lu Yuhong stood on the boat and warned the servants of Xie's family who delivered the fish: "Be careful, don't spill it!"

Xie's servants were not nervous at first, but the hand holding the iron pot trembled a little after being told by Lu Yuhong.

When the boat came over, Lu Yuhong took the iron pot by himself.

Xie Jue came over, laughed and teased, "Brother Lu, don't you want to take it all by yourself?"

"I'm not as stingy as you. Let's go, eat in the cabin, and continue fishing after eating."

As Lu Yuhong spoke, he brought the iron pot to the table in the cabin.

Then Chu Lan also came in.

The servants on the boat prepared bowls and chopsticks for the three of them, and the three of them began to taste.

After taking the first bite, Lu Yuhong showed a surprised expression: "This fish is too delicious! The meat is tender and fragrant."

Then, he started to feast on it with a little disregard for the image.

Then he praised: "The side dishes below are also very tasty, and what are these black beans? They are very salty!"

Compared to him, Chu Lan and Xie Jue's reactions were much calmer. It's not that the food is not tasty, but because of years of upbringing, he won't lose his image just because of delicious food.

Especially Chu Lan, no matter how delicious the food is, he will not be like Lu Yuhong. Food is not so important in his heart.

But he also can't deny that Wei Ruo's fish is really delicious and special, and the way of grilling and boiling it with a bunch of side dishes is also very novel.

The fish is cut in half, and the fish weighing more than two catties is not much to get half of. With side dishes, it is only half a pot, and the three of them finished eating in a short while.

Lu Yuhong hasn't finished eating yet, looking at the bottom of the pot where even the soup has been drunk, he still can't get enough of it.

Immediately afterwards, he urged Chu Lan and Xie Jue to go back and continue fishing: "Don't rest after eating, go back and catch a few more."

Xie Jue said helplessly: "Brother Lu, at least you should give Miss Wei, who is in charge of grilling fish, a rest."

"Then I'll catch a few more fish and keep them. What if Miss Wei wants to roast them? Can't there be no fish for her to roast?"

Speaking of landing, Lu Yuhong dragged Xie Jue and Chu Lan to the bow of the boat.

Xie Jue glanced at Chu Lan and saw that his expression was normal, so he followed to the bow with confidence.

Among so many people of the same generation he knew, it seemed that only Lu Yuhong dared to drag the Seventh Prince down like this, and the Seventh Prince was also extraordinarily tolerant of Lu Yuhong.

Lu Yuhong's identity is a part of this, and the two of them grew up together is also a part.

When the three returned to the bow to continue fishing, Wei Ruo, Xie Ying and Xiumei also finished half of their fish.

Xie Ying asked Wei Ruo: "Ruoruo, what are your black beans? They are salty and taste good."

"This is fermented soybeans, which can increase the aroma and taste." Wei Ruo explained.

"It's amazing. Last time you said that soy sauce is also made from soybeans. How can one soybean make so many different things?" Xie Ying sighed.

"Soybeans are very effective. If I have a chance, I'll make you some soy milk and bean curd. It's delicious." Wei Ruo said.

"Okay, okay!" It's not that Xie Ying has never eaten soy milk and tofu curd, but she is looking forward to what Wei Ruo made.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Ying said with emotion: "Ruoruo, if I were a man, I would go to your house to propose marriage and marry you back home!"

"If you were a man, I would ignore you." Wei Ruo said.

"Why?"

"Husband and wife can't have friends. There are few affectionate men in this world, and most of them are fickle and ungrateful Chen Shimei."

"That's hard to say. I think my parents are pretty good. My mother doesn't think my father is a petty official, and my father doesn't think my mother is a businessman. They treat each other like guests." Xie Ying said.

"Your parents are rare, let's say that in this Taizhou mansion, how many families do you think don't take concubines?" Wei Ruo said.

"Not many. I only know that the magistrate does not take concubines. He would not dare to come if he thinks about it. The magistrate's wife is a princess from Huaiwang's residence. If he dares to accept it, Huaiwang's residence will not spare the Yuan family."

"So you should still be my good sister. I won't lose you if I have delicious food. My future husband may not be so lucky!" Wei Ruo said.

"Good! Let's be good sisters!" Xie Ying looked happy.

After the two sisters whispered for a while, Xie Ying went back to fishing again.

Seeing that Lu Yuhong on the opposite side cheated with two fishing rods, Xie Ying was not to be outdone, and asked someone to prepare an extra fishing rod.

Then no matter which one of the two catches the fish, the other will stare at it with wide eyes, for fear that the fish caught by the other party will be bigger than their own.

Lu Yuhong yelled: "No matter what, I can't lose to a girl."

Xie Ying was not convinced: "What happened to the girl's family? The girl's family is not necessarily weaker than the man!"

Lu Yuhong: "I didn't say you were weak, but I shouldn't be weaker than you."

Xie Ying: "There is nothing that should or shouldn't be done. Let's talk about the facts. I'm catching more fish than you now!"

Lu Yuhong: "It's too early to draw conclusions!"

Xie Ying: "I will catch more in the future! It must be better than you!"

Lu Yuhong: "Then let's compete!"

As they spoke, the two stared at each other several times.

Xie Ying and Lu Yuhong seemed to be competing with each other, and neither of them accepted the other.

Xie Jue had a headache for a while. This younger sister of hers has never conceded defeat since she was a child.

As for Lu Yuhong, he has a very competitive personality, and when he gets competitive, he doesn't care about it.

I thought it would be no problem to be on the two ships separately, but I never thought that the two could fight across a long distance.

Fortunately, the two fought back, and they didn't really quarrel, they just uttered harsh words in the air.

While Xie Ying and Lu Yuhong were fighting each other, Wei Ruo grilled a second fish, using the part of the belly cut from the fathead fish that Xie Ying caught.

The same method, bake until golden on both sides, then cook with the fried spices and side dishes.

Finally, Wei Ruo added black beans to the fish.

Wei Ruo cooked two servings of grilled fish at the same time this time, one was kept for Xie Ying and Xiumei to eat, and the other was given to the three people opposite.

After eating these two servings, several people were seven or eight percent full.

The rest of the fresh fish were raised in wooden barrels. Lu Yuhong originally wanted to give them to Wei Ruo, but Wei Ruo declined because it was inconvenient for her to go out, and finally entrusted them all to Xie Jue.

As for the results of the competition between Xie Ying and Lu Yuhong, there was no winner, because the fish they caught were of different species, sizes, and quantities.

Finally, Chu Lan became a peacemaker: "Everyone has his own strengths, and there is no winner or loser."

Chu Lan had already spoken, so Xie Ying and Lu Yuhong naturally couldn't disagree anymore.

Then Wei Ruo and Xie Ying separated from the three of them, and they returned to the shore in Chu Lan's boat first.

Chu Lan, who was still on the boat, asked Lu Yuhong, "Brother Yu, are you satisfied this time?"
