My daily life of cooking food in Tokyo

Chapter 247 Beef Brisket Noodles

But when Xu Jingdong looked at the dining table again, he found that there was still mapo tofu?

A big plate of mapo tofu ended up with only a little bit of red oil and minced meat left.

It perfectly explains what a sweep of light is.

This situation directly caused Xu Jingdong's extended spoon to freeze in mid-air.

Not going in, not going back.

In the end, I could only take advantage of the stir-fried diced lotus root to the side.

Xiao Xiao took a spoonful to hide her embarrassment.

pain.

It hurts so much!
What am I missing?
Xu Jingdong was extremely regretful at this time.

He glanced around and saw the full mapo tofu in Xiang Yufang's bowl.

mom!
Mom!

I know you are the best for me!

After finding the target, Xu Jingdong hurriedly looked at Xiang Yufang with pleading eyes.

I hope that the great maternal love will play a role and let her order Mapo Tofu herself.

Xiang Yufang, who was enjoying mapo tofu, suddenly shivered.

Turning his head away, he saw Xu Jingdong looking eagerly at the mapo tofu in his spoon.

After all, he was his own son, so Yufang knew exactly what Xu Jingdong was thinking.

My stupid son, even a little kid knows how to grab Mapo Tofu but you don’t know. It’s really pitiful.

Forget it, for the sake of great maternal love, I will force you...

A piece of mapo tofu.

Just one piece.

No more!

I can't even eat enough for myself, and it's a great sacrifice to be able to evenly eat a piece!
Looking at the extra piece of mapo tofu in the bowl, Xu Jingdong wanted to cry but had no tears.

He felt maternal love, but not much.

I could only stuff this piece of Mapo Tofu into my mouth with a tangled face.

Greedily enjoying the unparalleled taste of Mapo Tofu.

Unfortunately, this deliciousness goes as quickly as it comes.

This feeling of not being able to eat again after eating even gave Xu Jingdong the illusion that life was not worth it.

It was only a moment later that he perked up.

He directly picked up the dinner plate that once contained Mapo Tofu and poured all the remaining soup into his own bowl.

The snow-white rice was instantly dyed with a bright red sheen.

Xu Jingdong still felt that it was not enough.

Stir it quickly with chopsticks until all the rice grains are evenly coated with the mapo tofu soup.

Then he lowered his head and quickly pulled up.

The spicy and salty taste of mapo tofu greatly stimulated Xu Jingdong's taste buds.

With soft glutinous rice.

This tugging couldn't stop.

It wasn't until Xu Jingdong picked up the last grain of rice in the bowl that Xu Jingdong put down his chopsticks contentedly.

Satisfy.

So satisfying.

I really hope that Aunt Xiang will celebrate her birthday every day, so that I can enjoy such delicious mapo tofu every day.

It's a pity that this is obviously a luxury.

Xu Jingdong could only vent his anger on that gaudy duck wing.

It's all its fault. I lost my eyes and made myself miss such a delicious mapo tofu.

You must break its bones, suck out its marrow, and eat it all to vent your anger.

(Duck Wing: Who did I provoke?)

The battle at Xu Jingdong's table has ended, and the other table is coming to an end.

Looking at the last piece of mapo tofu on the dinner plate, Liu Honglin stretched out his spoon very naturally.

However, he found that there were three full spoons sticking out at the same time.

For a time, a four-legged situation was formed.

Liu Honglin coughed dryly and said, "I'm old and my teeth are not good."

"It's like eating something chewy like tofu."

"I hope everyone respects the old and loves the young, and give me the last mapo tofu."

"Grateful."

I believe you a ghost!
Why didn't you say that you had bad teeth when you gnawed on the pig's trotters?

It's just that it's really hard to refute such words, and the other three spoons can only back down in the end.

Just when Liu Honglin was secretly proud that he was about to win, he found that a spoon came from behind, blocking the spoon he was about to pick the fruit of victory.

An old man sitting next to him said, "I think what Xiao Liu said is very good."

"This Mapo Tofu doesn't require much chewing, so it's most suitable for elderly people like me."

"It's a pity that I'm old and my hands and feet are really weak."

"Fortunately, everyone is a noble person who respects the old and loves the young. They know how to be humble and left this last mapo tofu to me."

"In that case, I will be disrespectful."

After finishing speaking, Tang Shao directly cut off the beard in Liu Honglin's shocked gaze at an extremely fast speed.

Took away the last mapo tofu.

The speed is so fast and the movements are so agile, he doesn't look like an old man with weak legs and feet.

What the hell!

This is really shooting yourself in the foot.

Liu Honglin was dumbfounded, and could only do the next best thing. Following Xu Jingdong's example, he directly wrapped the mapo tofu soup into rounds.

Eating it with white rice is also a special taste.

In this way, the war of Mapo Tofu has come to an end.

Everyone returned to their previous harmonious and friendly appearance.

It seems like there has never been a war here.

With the assistance of Liu Minghui, apart from the inexplicable You Wanxia, ​​this birthday party can be said to be very successful.

Especially the short-lived Mapo Tofu left a deep impression on people.

It has become a topic of conversation for everyone after dinner and tea.

It's just that others don't believe it when they tell it to others.

How delicious can Mapo Tofu be?
Jean told that he was both angry and helpless.

After all, if they hadn't eaten it, they wouldn't believe that a home-cooked dish like mapo tofu could be so delicious.
-
In Zhang Yun's house, shrill wails came from the closed door.

The sound was so sharp and penetrating that people couldn't help but mourn for Zhang Xiaowei.

What a poor kid.

You Wanxia was indifferent to Zhang Xiaowei's cry.

In her opinion, if a child disobeys, he should be beaten.

Beat until obedient.

What's more, she is not in the mood to talk to Zhang Xiaowei at this time.

She also has to report to her son.

As soon as the call was connected, Zhang Yun's excited voice came: "Mom, how are you doing?"

"Have you found out the truth about Liu Minghui?"

No wonder Zhang Yun is excited. If Liu Minghui's success can be copied or usurped, doesn't it mean that he can also make a lot of money?
That's why he's so caring.

You Wanxia thought carefully about today's meal.

Although the taste is delicious, it is not top-notch at all.

Of course, if she had eaten Mapo Tofu made by Liu Minghui, she would not have such thoughts.

It's a pity that she doesn't like this Mapo Tofu at all, so how can she eat it?

Thinking of this, You Wanxia smiled and said, "It's nothing to be afraid of."

"I think Liu Minghui's level is above average."

"Although the meals at the birthday party are delicious, they are still far from the top."

"By the way, son, why are you asking this?"

Zhang Yun also breathed a sigh of relief after receiving You Wanxia's reply.

It seems that Liu Minghui's success is just a successful hype and marketing.

In terms of strength, it can only be said that it is not bad, but it is not a key factor.

Then you have a lot of room for maneuver.

Especially since Ryuki Izakaya was originally a shop that I helped rent.

I can easily contact the owner of the store.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yun smiled mysteriously and said, "Mom, you don't have to worry about this."

"Just wait for me to give you a big surprise."

"By the way, why are you so noisy over there?"

"It sounds like Xiaowei is crying."

You Wanxia said indifferently: "Xiaowei is a picky eater, so naturally he needs to be educated."

"Otherwise, how will you grow taller and bigger in the future?"

Zhang Yun raised his eyebrows and said, "Picky eaters? That should be educated."

"Okay, Mom, I still have something to do, so I'll hang up first."
-
After lunch, everyone sat at Lao Liu's house for a while.

It wasn't until around three or four o'clock in the afternoon that everyone hurriedly said goodbye and left here.

It will be night if you sit any longer.

It was time for the old Liu family to celebrate by themselves.

If you stay any longer, you're just asking for trouble.

Time soon came to evening.

The four of them simply sat together and had dinner, and they helped Xiang Zhen celebrate her birthday.

There are not as many bells and whistles as young people, but it is a little more warm.

simple is the best.

During this period, Liu Minghui took out the gift he had prepared early and gave it to Xiang Zhen.

She smiled and said, "Mom, happy birthday."

"I wish you blessings like the East Sea and longevity as long as the Southern Mountains."

Xiang Zhen's eyes were full of smiles, and she happily accepted the gift from Liu Minghui.

She likes everything her son gives her.

At this time, Liu Minghui felt a thump in his heart.

He forgot one very important thing, that is, he forgot to ask Indoor Photon to buy a gift.

Although Xiang Zhen definitely wouldn't care, this kind of mistake is still somewhat unforgivable.

Just when Liu Minghui was feeling uneasy, he saw Guangzi in the room take out a gift from his bosom.

She has long been prepared.

Handing the gift to Xiang Zhen, Indoor Photon stammered: "Auntie, happy birthday."

"I wish you hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren, and a house full of descendants."

Hearing the congratulations from Photon in the room, Xiang Zhen almost turned her mouth into a crooked smile.

He smiled and said, "A hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren? A house full of descendants?"

"Then Photon, you have to work hard."

After speaking, he laughed twice again.

She had a very happy birthday.

Especially Photon was very satisfying to her.

Even when she was sleeping, the corners of her mouth could open in an extremely exaggerated arc.
-
After reunion comes separation.

After helping his mother Xiang Zhen celebrate her birthday, it was time for Liu Minghui and Indoor Photon to leave.

The next day, Liu Minghui got up early.

The child travels thousands of miles and the mother is worried.

He lay on the bed tossing and turning, really not knowing how to speak.

In the end, it was Xiang Zhen who took the initiative to find Liu Minghui.

He babbled for a long time, asking Liu Minghui not to be like a little kid and covet his mother's warm embrace.

The vast sky is where he should fly.

Following his mother to the living room, Liu Minghui found that Liu Lixing was sitting on the sofa in the living room drinking tea.

One mouthful after another, without speaking, it seemed that they were waiting for the three of them.

After a long while, Liu Lixing put down his tea cup, took a long breath and said, "After breakfast, leave as soon as possible."

"Don't miss the plane because of hypocrisy."

After speaking, he got up directly and came to the table first.

Some words, some things, everything goes without saying.

Today's breakfast is beef noodles.

The beef brisket cut into large pieces is wrapped in red oil and looks very tempting.

I couldn't help but want to take a bite.

After all, Liu Minghui couldn't hold back, he picked up a piece of beef brisket and put it in his mouth.

Beef brisket is richer in fat than regular beef.

Not only the aroma is more intense, but also the taste becomes more layered.

Tasting it carefully, I only feel that the beef brisket has a rich and delicious taste.

The taste is crisp and soft, the meat is tender and the juice is rich.

The umami flavor of the beef and the aroma of the seasonings perfectly blend together, leaving you with endless aftertaste.

As an excellent chef, Liu Minghui can naturally taste the unusual heat of these beef briskets.

The tight structure of beef dictates that it must be simmered for a long time before it becomes tender and flavorful.

It takes at least three to five hours to stew it to this level.

It was only eight o'clock in the morning.

It's hard to imagine Xiang Zhen getting up so early in the morning to stew beef brisket.

The purpose is to let the family enjoy a delicious breakfast.

Putting aside the emotion in his heart, Liu Minghui decided to finish the bowl of beef noodles.

Only in this way is worthy of Xiang Zhen's efforts.

It is different from the spicy and soft beef brisket.

The noodle soup is very light, with only a faint beef aroma.

If it weren't for the beef brisket soup, it could even be said to be crystal clear.

After taking a sip, I realized that this soup was not as simple as it seemed.

Delicious and sweet, with a strong beef aroma.

It's all concentrated essence.

This is definitely a delicious soup made from beef bones that have been simmered for a night.

Combined with the extremely strong handmade alkaline noodles.

You don't even need a whistle to make a big bowl of it.

With a strong suction, the noodles mixed with the soup were sucked into Liu Minghui's mouth.

When that wasn't enough, he picked up another piece of beef brisket and put it in his mouth.

As the teeth chew, the deliciousness of various ingredients merges in the mouth.

The rich taste and rich flavor are hard to let go.

Bite after mouthful, he kept sucking the beef noodles in front of him.

Only then did Liu Minghui realize that this was not just braised beef brisket whistle.

There are also some large pieces of white radish hidden in it.

It was filled with soup and turned into a color almost the same as beef brisket.

When you take a bite, it has a completely different texture from beef brisket.

The fresh yet sweet aroma of daikon radish is paired with the delicious soup.

Coupled with the extremely silky texture, it tastes as good as the beef brisket, which is the protagonist.

The umami taste and delicate texture of beef are combined with the sweetness and soft and delicate texture of white radish.

Let the taste of this braised beef brisket whistle become more complex and rich.

Coupled with rich and delicious beef bone soup, strong noodles.

It makes people feel as if they are tasting master-level food.

Can't stop.

For a while, the sound of sucking could be heard endlessly.

Liu Minghui quickly finished the bowl of beef noodles.

Food is the best tool to convey emotion.

Through this bowl of beef brisket noodles, he felt Xiang Zhen's strong maternal love for him.

Thousands of words have all turned into this bowl of beef brisket noodles before leaving.

At this moment, Liu Lixing also took out two earthen jars like a magic trick.

Putting it in front of Liu Minghui with a smile, he said, "One can is moldy tofu and the other is bean paste."

"They're all your favorite things."

"One jar is made by me, and one jar is made by your mother."

"Take it there, you can't buy the authentic taste like your own."

Liu Minghui nodded vigorously and accepted these two cans of gifts filled with his parents' deepest feelings.

How can something bought outside contain the taste of home?

Watching the departing figures of Liu Minghui and Guangnian in the room, Liu Lixing felt a little melancholy.

He yelled loudly: "Honey, I want to drink, drink the wine left by my son."

Xiang Zhen just planned to refuse habitually, but remembering the two left, she finally agreed.

Not only that, she also sat next to Liu Lixing and said with a smile: "Drink, I'll drink with you!"

Liu Lixing was a little surprised that Xiang Zhen would actually drink with him.

In fact, it's not that Xiang Zhen can't drink or can't drink.

It was just for the sake of keeping herself healthy that she chose to quit drinking.

Unexpectedly, on the day Liu Minghui left, she finally chose to break the habit.

Soon Xiang Zhen brought over the jar of wine left by Liu Minghui.

This is also the surprise that Liu Minghui left for Liu Lixing.

Uncover the lid of the jar.

In an instant, the rich aroma of wine hits the face.

Followed by a scent of bamboo.

The two fragrances are independent of each other, yet harmonious and unified.

The fragrance made their mouths water.

Liu Lixing said in shock: "There seems to be something wrong with this wine."

"The last time I drank it with Mitsuko, it didn't have such a strong aroma."

"The fragrance even makes me feel like I'm in a bamboo forest, surrounded by green bamboo."

"It's just too incredible."

Xiang Zhen's eyes were also full of horror, and she said, "Isn't this too fragrant?"

"It seems that Xiaohui didn't work in vain the day before yesterday, and indeed he brewed good enough wine."

"It's just that if you don't store this fine wine, drinking it directly seems like a waste."

Liu Lixing said angrily: "Wine is something to drink."

"Collecting is a waste of resources."

"Besides, this is a gift left by my son. How can I be worthy of his affection if I don't drink it?"

"drink!"

"Drink!"

"Drink from a big bowl!"

"I'm not going to get drunk today!"

After speaking, he took the lead in raising the wine jar and poured a bowl for Xiang Zhen and himself.

Xiang Zhen felt that Liu Lixing's words made sense.

Immediately, he was not polite and picked up the wine glass in front of him.

As the wine glasses collided, the two drank the wine in one gulp.

The aroma of wine and bamboo was surging, washing their bodies.

Then there is the sweet and mellow taste of wine, which starts from the tip of the tongue and gradually spreads to the whole body.

The most commendable thing is.

Except for a hint of bamboo, this wine has no miscellaneous smell.

Coupled with the rich fragrance, they instantly had the illusion that they were drinking in a bamboo forest.

"Good wine!"

Liu Lixing praised:

"I am leisurely in the bamboo grove, and drink a jar of fine wine.

The bamboo leaves are fragrant and the wind sends them, and the white clouds dance like immortals.

At this time, the mood is at ease and quiet, and the world is forgotten and not worried.

Drinking with a close friend makes you drunk, and poetry comes from the mouth and the meaning becomes stronger. "

I actually wrote a poem impromptu because of my feelings.

Xiang Zhen also felt the same way.

At this time, the smell of wine is gone, but I don't feel any discomfort at all.

Only a little bit of sweetness remains in the mouth.

Unparalleled wine!
Xiang Zhen's eyes lit up.

She didn't expect Liu Minghui to have excellent cooking skills, but also excellent wine making skills.

Immediately intertwined cups and cups with Liu Lixing.

Not long after, the two of them were already drunk and hazy.

It felt like the other party turned into two people at once, and then three people at once.

But he still couldn't bear to put down the wine glass in his hand.
-
At this time, Liu Minghui didn't know that the surprise he had left had been triggered.

He was holding the hand of Indoor Photon to board the plane.

Not long after, the two found their seats and sat down.

Looking at the location is almost the same as when we came here.

Let the indoor photons even give birth to an illusion.

In fact, this fantasy journey has not yet begun. The magical experience in the past few days is just a dream.

But Liu Minghui's strong hand pulled her back to reality.

Indoor Photon understands that all this is not his dream, but the real reality.

Perhaps because she was too excited, she actually fainted again.

Fortunately, Liu Minghui was well prepared this time.

Airsickness medicine, pillows, vomiting bags and other tools are available.

Let indoor photon enjoy all-round care.

Looking at Liu Minghui's loving eyes, Indoor Photon even felt that airsickness was not a bad thing.

He rested his head on Liu Minghui's shoulder very naturally.

That is her warmest harbor.

Liu Minghui also took advantage of the situation to wrap his arms around the indoor photon.

In this way, the two began their sweet return journey.

It's just that such a heartwarming picture made one person itch with hatred.

Looking along the line of sight, who is it if it’s not Xie Zixin?
There is a reason for her to appear here.

A duplicity person inquired about Liu Minghui's itinerary while he was at Xiangzhen's birthday party.

After returning, he told Xie Zixin the secret.

It's not that Xie Zixin changed the ticket directly, and got on the same plane as Liu Minghui.

Coincidentally, Xie Zixin's location is very close to Liu Minghui's location.

With just a casual scan, you can have a panoramic view of the intimate behavior of the two of them.

calm.

Calm down again.

Although she felt like there was a fire burning in her chest, Xie Zixin also knew that now was not the time for an attack.

She had no position and no qualifications to say anything to Liu Minghui and Indoor Photon.

I can only close my eyes, relax my mind, and stop looking at Liu Minghui.

Try to calm yourself down in this way.

It's just that I endured the calm for a while, and took a step back, thinking about it and getting more and more angry.

Everything that she had experienced with Liu Minghui kept popping up in Xie Zixin's mind.

The two were so intimate, and the memories of their childhood sweetheart made her immersed in them and unable to extricate herself.

Thinking of Liu Minghui's happy and sweet appearance with the indoor photon at this time, she wished she could rush over and push the indoor photon away to replace him.

No.

You have to do something yourself.

If you don't start, the day lily will be cold.

Looking at Liu Minghui and Shi Guangzi who were cuddling tightly together, Xie Zixin decided to make a decision that violated the precepts of his ancestors.

you wait for me.

You'll know right away how good I am! ——
However, Liu Minghui treated Xie Zixin's behavior in the same way.

After all, even if the seats are close together, no one will have anything to look around.

What's more, all he can see now is the indoor photon leaning on him.

Looking at Guangzi who was sleeping in the room, Liu Minghui couldn't help but kiss her forehead.

This naughty little girl finally fell into her own hands.

Airplanes fly fast.

It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive in the sky above Tokyo, and soon it was time to get off the plane.

Gently shaking Guangzi awake in the room, Liu Minghui whispered: "Guangzi, it's time to get off the plane."

Opening his eyes, he looked at Liu Minghui who was close at hand, before the photons in the room made any moves.

His body involuntarily crashed into Liu Minghui along with the turbulence of the plane.

This hit hard.

He just sent his red lips to Liu Minghui's mouth.

Liu Minghui's eyes lit up.

Is there such a good thing?

Immediately, he was not polite, and kissed the photon in the room.

Photon in the room was stunned at first, and then calmed down again.

If it was Liu Minghui, she wouldn't mind at all.

He even began to actively respond to Liu Minghui's attacks.

The two were stuck together so tightly.

He looked directly at Xie Zixin who was dumbfounded.

Is this a plot that I can watch for free?

Just at this time, the plane had arrived at the airport and it was time to get off the plane.

Cursing silently, Xie Zixin rushed out of the plane without looking back.

People who didn't know thought she was in a hurry.
