Catering God

Chapter 41 The Flower Language of Pea Tips
Tang Wenjun didn't know how to order, so he looked to Jiang Feng for help.

Jiang Feng looked at the ingredients in the freezer, picked up the pen used for ordering, and wrote down four dishes with ease: boiled pork slices, twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts, stir-fried liver and kidneys, and fish-flavored eggplant.

It seems that there is still a soup missing...

Jiang Feng looked at the refrigerator again.

Suddenly I found a bag of emerald green leaf seedlings in a plastic bag in the corner. They looked very fresh.

Suddenly his eyes lit up.

Write on the menu: Pea and Pork Soup.

After writing, Jiang Feng handed the menu to the boss.

The boss took a look and nodded, "No problem, just wait a moment."

As he said that, he bent down and took out the corresponding ingredients from the refrigerator and prepared to cook.

Jiang Feng and Tang Wenjun returned to the dining table and sat down.

Tang Wenjun asked curiously, "Jiang Feng, I can probably understand the dishes you wrote about before, but what is that pea dumpling?"

"You'll know when you come up." Jiang Feng said.

Seeing Tang Wenjun's confusion, Su Hong explained, "Pea tips, also known as pea tips, are the tenderest part of the pea sprout. They're a common vegetable in the southwest. But if you want to eat them, it's best to wait until around November, as they're a seasonal vegetable after all."

"Just eat it."

Jiang Feng did not refute, which meant he agreed with Su Hong's explanation.

The boss started a fire while cutting vegetables, and his movements were very quick. The originally quiet stove suddenly became lively, especially at the door of the store, the smell of smoke and fire immediately rose.

Jiang Feng turned his head and looked, and suddenly shouted:

"Brother Wu, I'm bringing some classmates with me. You should at least have a local accent so it's cheaper."

Spoken in pure Hanchuan dialect.

Tang Wenjun and Liu Xixi were stunned.

Only Su Hong next to him showed a surprised look, as if she understood Jiang Feng's dialect.

The boss over there looked over with a confused expression.

"Yeah, Brother Wu, I can't remember, but I gave you some cigarettes last time I came."

As Jiang Feng spoke, he pulled out a pack of cigarettes from Tang Wenjun's pocket, walked towards the boss and handed him a cigarette.

Jiang Feng had lived in Hanchuan for so many years in his previous life, it would be strange if he couldn't speak the local dialect. His accent was a bit mixed, and it was hard to tell where he was from.

Brother Wu looked at Jiang Feng's face, but he couldn't remember having received this guest before.

Seeing him handing her a cigarette, she took it and put it in her ear.

Thinking it was because of my bad memory, I nodded and said, "It's so hot, go get a few drinks from the refrigerator, I'll give you a discount."

"Yes, yes... Remember not to make it too spicy."

After Jiang Feng finished chatting with the boss, he turned around and took out a few bottles of iced black tea and cola from the refrigerator. He walked back happily, threw the cigarette box to Tang Wenjun, and distributed the drinks to everyone.

After Su Hong's explanation, Tang Wenjun and Liu Xixi also understood that Jiang Feng was bargaining with the boss just now.

Tang Wenjun asked in confusion: "Do you know the owner of this store?"

"I don't know him." Jiang Feng shook his head.

"Then you also know that others call you Brother Wu?" Tang Wenjun was a little suspicious.

Jiang Feng was speechless for a moment, and pointed at the store name and said, "Please tell me what the name of this store is."

"It's called... Woog's Restaurant... Oh, that's right."

Tang Wenjun suddenly realized and raised his head in embarrassment.

It turned out that Jiang Feng was just fooling around! Liu Xixi and Su Hong covered their mouths and laughed secretly.

Especially Su Hong, who stared at Jiang Feng with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

This boy...seems different from the ones she has seen before.

"Jiang Feng, have you been to Hanchuan before? I feel like you speak the dialect here better than me?" Su Hong asked.

Jiang Feng explained: "I might be more gifted in languages. I had a relative from Hanchuan before, and I learned a few words from him."

Tang Wenjun was even more confused.

Why has he never heard Jiang Feng mention this matter?
But I didn't get suspicious, after all, it wasn't something worth doubting.

While a few people were whispering here, the restaurant owner had already started serving the dishes.

The tableware for serving rice is very down-to-earth, just a big iron spoon.

Jiang Feng said as he poured rice into his bowl, "When you first come to a place, the best way to get to know it is to try the local food. Don't go to those high-end restaurants that the locals won't even look at, let alone the scenic spots, as they're all ripping off tourists. The best places to try are these affordable roadside restaurants, where you can try the most ordinary home-cooked dishes."

The dishes he ordered were all very popular in local restaurants, all home-cooked dishes.

Tang Wenjun nodded in conviction.

Especially looking at the delicious boiled pork slices in front of you.

The meat slices thickened with starch are cooked in the red soup made from fermented black bean paste. The bowl is topped with blanched lettuce and bean sprouts, and topped with a layer of garlic and pepper powder. Then, a ladle of boiling hot oil is poured on top, which immediately emits a rich aroma and tempts the diners' taste buds.

Tang Wenjun took the first bite.

hot!
The refreshing and spicy taste bursts in your mouth.

Cool!
When it came to the crispy pea and pork soup, Tang Wenjun felt fresh again.

He had eaten crispy pork before, but this was the first time he had eaten soup made with the tips of pea sprouts and crispy pork.

I took a bite out of curiosity.

fresh!
Several people started eating.

While eating, Jiang Feng suddenly joked, "Do you know what the flower language of the pea flower is?"

What is the flower language of pea sprouts?
Tang Wenjun was confused and said, "I know the meaning of roses, carnations, and lilies. You're just a leaf on a pea seedling, what meaning can it have?"

"Of course."

Seeing Jiang Feng so confident, Tang Wenjun and Liu Xixi turned their gaze to Su Hong beside them.

It’s a pity that Su Hong, who is half an expert on Hanchuan, also said he didn’t know.

Jiang Feng raised his voice again and asked, "Brother Wu, what is the meaning of the flower of pea-shaped flowers?"

Brother Wu said in a loud voice: "Don't be old!"

Except for Jiang Feng, the other three people were stunned for a moment, and after they reacted, they burst out laughing.

Pea tips, only eat tender ones, don’t eat old ones!

The two girls had small appetites, but Jiang Feng and Tang Wenjun had good appetites and each finished two bowls of rice.

Eat and drink your fill, pay the bill and leave!
At first, Liu Xixi called Wenjun classmate, but on the way back to school, she said that she was younger and started calling Tang Wenjun brother. She called him brother Wenjun all the time in a very affectionate way.

"Brother Wenjun, I'm thick-skinned. Can I borrow your car more often in the future?"

"Of course no problem." Tang Wenjun was very generous.

"That's great, Brother Wenjun is so nice."

Liu Xixi's smile was so sweet and her voice was so soft and sweet that Tang Wenjun's heart melted when he heard it.

Tang Wenjun, who was already very happy at the moment, obviously didn't know that he had turned into a black carp in the fish pond and was being toyed around by the evil loli girl.
