Chapter 87: The Temptation of Food
"Wow! It's so delicious!" Su Ying took a bite of the whitebait and stomped her feet in delight.
Covering her little face and shaking her little head, she is so cute.
"Wow~ It's so delicious!" Hu Yaoshi couldn't help but echoed.
There seemed to be tears in the corners of his eyes.
"This dish is really only available in heaven. How many times can we taste it on earth!"
Murong Fu automatically ignored Hu Yaoshi, glanced at Su Ying lightly, and took a piece of whitebait into his mouth.
Woman.
After all, the temptation of delicious food is irresistible...
Damn it!
So delicious!
The fish is soft and tender with rosy aroma, and the fish meat melts in your mouth, with a little sweetness.
Paired with the thick old soup, it tastes extremely delicious.
restraint!
Must exercise restraint!
You must not let others see that you are ignorant.
"Haha, Mr. Murong, do you think these dishes are to your liking?" the shopkeeper asked with a smile.
Murong Fu smiled and said: "Two of you, I'm sitting here, we can be considered acquainted today."
The shopkeeper glanced at Mrs. Liu, sat down next to the bag, and said politely:
"Mr. Murong is right. By the way, let me introduce to you. This is our imperial cook here—Ms. Liu."
"I have admired you for a long time!"
Everyone is a veteran of the world, and they had some rough guesses in their minds before.
It's just that the other party is a woman, so I subconsciously deny myself.
"When I came to Gusu City for the first time, I was saved by Mr. Murong and some heroes. I am extremely grateful." Madam Liu did not hesitate, raised her glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Haha, okay, Madam Liu is really happy."
"Haha, good drinker."
"I admire you!"
…
Murong Fu and others toasted to welcome each other, and after a few drinks everyone became familiar with each other.
"Mr. Murong, how do you like the taste of this fish?" Madam Liu asked with a smile.
Murong Fu nodded and was about to praise it when Su Ying excitedly said, "It's delicious, it's so delicious."
"To be honest, I have been eating fish since I was a child, and my family is full of famous Jiangnan chefs."
"But this is the first time I eat such a delicious fish!" Murong Fu said truthfully.
"Mr. Murong, let me tell you the truth, this silverbait is extraordinary, it is..."
When the shopkeeper said this, he looked around and saw that there was no sound, so he dared to lower his voice and said: "It's a tribute from the palace!"
"What!"
Bao was different. Hu Yaoshi's expression changed and his eyes widened.
Madam Liu smiled and said: "This is what our big boss means."
"Is your big boss in the palace?" Su Ying asked curiously.
"Yes, in the palace." Madam Liu said truthfully.
"Haha, then I really want to thank your big boss for allowing us to eat such delicious food."
Murong Fu knew it well.
Such a short time cannot be an order from some big boss.
When the other party says this, nine times out of ten they are trying to outsell themselves.
Perhaps, the big boss in the palace has some troubles of his own and needs help.
Deng Baichuan asked cautiously, "I wonder if it would be convenient for you to tell us the name of your big boss?"
Madam Liu and the shopkeeper looked at each other, embarrassed, and said:
"Sorry everyone, we can't decide on this yet. We need your consent."
Murong Fu smiled and said, "It's okay, we'll talk about it next time."
"That's right, eat, eat!" Hu Yaoshi said with a smile.
Everyone ate happily, and soon the whole table of food was devoured.
"It tastes so good! This is the first time I've eaten so happily." Su Ying let out a big burp without caring about the impact.
"Don't girls pay attention to their diet? Aren't you afraid of getting fat?" Murong Fu joked.
"I'm not afraid." Su Ying said nonchalantly.
Murong Fu shook his head and stopped arguing with Su Ying.
He took out a one thousand tael silver note and handed it to the shopkeeper to settle the bill: "Thank you both for allowing us to eat such a delicious meal."
The shopkeeper stood up quickly, waved his hand and said, "Mr. Murong, you're welcome. I can't accept your money."
"Haha, I know this meal is worth a lot of money, but this little money is not even one ten millionth of it, so just take it as my wish."
Naturally, the money Murong Fu gave out would not be taken back and was left on the table.
Say a few polite words to the shopkeeper and go out.
The shopkeeper asked: "What do you think of Mr. Murong?"
"It's not bad, it's not bad! Maybe I can use it in the future," Lady Liu said with a smile.
The shopkeeper nodded, looked at the thousand taels of silver notes left by Murong Fu, and prepared to put them into his arms.
Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Oh my god, one thousand taels of gold!"
"Huh? So much?" Madam Liu was also a little surprised.
Although her meal cannot be estimated in terms of money, the ingredients alone are enough.
One thousand gold is enough to eat seven or eight times.
"Haha, Mr. Murong is indeed no mortal. I admire him, I admire him." The shopkeeper smelled the fragrance on the banknote and laughed loudly.
Madam Liu looked at Murong Fu's leaving figure and became thoughtful.
Be sure to introduce it to the superior.
"Master, are you going over now?" Bao BuTong asked.
Murong Fu glanced at Su Ying and saw that she looked indifferent, so he said, "Well, you go back and take care of Brother Feng first. I'll be back soon."
"Well...do you still need to see who needs to be invited for ancestor worship?" Bao BuTong asked.
"No need, we are not busy with business, who wants to let him come first?" Murong Fu said calmly.
"Well, sir, let's go back first." Bao BuTong, Deng Baichuan, and Hu Yaoshi bowed and left at the same time.
In the field, only Murong Fu and Su Ying were left.
"What? You still want to stand in front of the store and smell it?" Murong Fu couldn't help but joked.
"Hmph, I don't have a nose as sharp as yours. Come with me." After Su Ying finished speaking, she strode towards the north of the city.
The two of them walked all the way and soon reached the mountain north of the city.
On a mountain wall, I found a cave covered by thick vines.
Murong Fu thought for a while, this cave should have been an abandoned mine before.
There were several landslides a long time ago and some people lost their lives, but the prefect at that time stopped it.
"The place you are talking about is not in this abandoned mine, right?" Murong Fu asked curiously.
"Well, the patient told me that there are many patients infected with corpse poison hidden in this cave." Su Ying nodded.
Murong Fu stood at the cave door for a moment and asked, "Are you sure you want to follow me in?"
"Of course, I'm curious about what's in it?" Su Ying said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go!" Murong Fu stopped talking nonsense and walked in first.
Looking through the sunlight outside, a straight corridor with no end appeared in front of them.
Along with it, there was an extremely unpleasant smell.
Murong Fu was so disgusted that he almost vomited out the royal meal.
Turning to look at Su Ying aside, she couldn't help but be startled:
Chapter completed!
