please call me ninth uncle

Chapter 116
Looking at the frothed milk latte in his hand, Lin Jiu said calmly, "Because yours is Americano, so it's different."

"Americano?"

Wen Cai scratched his face, staring at the two cups of black and white in front of him with some doubts, American coffee?

Isn't it coffee?
Seeing the expression on his face, Lin Jiu knew what he was wondering about, and explained softly:
"Coffee means coffee, and this Americano is the most common type of coffee. It is usually made with a drip coffee pot. You can add sugar and milk according to your personal taste."

"Among the two cups in front of you, the black one is pure coffee with a bitter taste, and the white one is milk. Pour it into the coffee and mix it according to your own taste..."

"So there are so many problems with drinking coffee?"

Wencai suddenly realized, but also surprised.

However, he held the cup containing milk and put it on top of the cup containing coffee, but he couldn't pour his hands down.

"Sir, your steak."

At this time, two waiters came over and served steak and egg tarts.

"Ah."

Lin Jiu nodded to show his thanks.

In turn, he ignored Wen Cai at the side, picked up the coffee, put it to his mouth and took a sip, his eyes narrowed immediately: "This is the taste, I haven't felt it for a long time, it's comfortable. It's a pity that there is no milk tea..."

Lin Jiu didn't have too many regrets. After all, he was in modern times, and he was still fused with the soul of the famous Uncle Jiu. This is not bad. If it was changed to the ancient times thousands of years ago, let alone coffee, I'm afraid I will starve to death.

Zizi!

Then, he picked up the knife and fork, and skillfully began to cut the steak sprinkled with black pepper.

'Oh, it's so difficult, what if it's not right?The most important thing is that the master's is still different from mine, and I can't learn it even if I want to. '

Wen Cai hesitated to raise his glass, looked at Lin Jiu who was only caring about his own food, and felt bitter in his heart.

Then, he couldn't help sneaking a glance at Ren Tingting who was at the side: "The coffee she ordered is the same as mine, let's see how she makes it later, and I will follow."

"This bumpkin, stinky rascal."

Seeing Wen Cai's clumsy posture, Ren Tingting couldn't help feeling relieved, especially when she thought of the starving ghost of this guy before, wishing to make a hole in her body with her eyes...

"I have to fix him!"

A cunning flashed in Ren Tingting's eyes, she immediately picked up the coffee that she didn't add anything, and passed it directly to her mouth. After taking a sip, she took another sip of milk, filled a spoonful of sugar and stuffed it into her small mouth.

She made big moves in all three movements, just for Wen Cai who glanced at her side to see.

"So this is ah."

A flash of astonishment flashed in Wencai's eyes, but then he was a little puzzled: "However...why is it different from the addition of sugar and milk that the master said, or is it that I misunderstood the meaning of the master?"

"Whatever it is, it might be another way of drinking it, I'll follow suit, it shouldn't go wrong."

Determined to pay attention, Wencai picked up the cup and was about to pass it to his mouth.

'This silly boy. '

A trace of helplessness flashed in Lin Jiu's eyes. Although he was concentrating on eating and drinking, but at the same small table, how could he not see Ren Tingting's deliberate actions?
He put down the knife and fork, looked at Ren Tingting with a half-smile and said, "Why, Miss Ren likes to drink coffee in three steps?"

Although Wencai is really not very good, he is still his apprentice, so he can be bullied by himself, but you, an outsider, sincerely want to make him look ugly, then... no!
"Ah... yes, I like to drink like this."

Ren Tingting was shocked, feeling that Lin Jiu's burning eyes had seen through her thoughts, and she couldn't help but feel a little lack of confidence.

"master……?"

Wen Cai was a little confused.

"I'll help you."

Shaking his head, Lin Jiu picked up the milk, poured a third of it into the coffee cup, and added a spoonful of sugar.

"Drink it first, if you feel that it doesn't suit your taste, you can add more sugar and milk yourself."

"Oh, thank you master."

Wencai was certain in his heart, and quickly thanked him with a smile.

Then he looked at Ren Tingting curled his lips, he was not stupid, how could he not see now that the other party's behavior of drinking coffee just now was for him to see, just to make himself look ugly?

At this moment, Ren Tingting rolled her eyes and said casually, "Uncle Nine, I see that you are so familiar with it. You come to this western restaurant a lot. A person with such a great ability like you still has this kind of leisure time?"

'Want to get to the bottom of me, what is this? '

Lin Jiu thought it was funny, he could hear the deep meaning in Ren Tingting's words.

If she said that she did go to western restaurants a lot, she would probably be labeled a liar in her heart.

Because of Wen Cai's performance, it is obviously the first time he has come to a western restaurant. If he is a master who comes here often, why doesn't he bring his apprentice with him?

Even if he said that he didn't bring his apprentices, but just came here alone in the early years, that wouldn't match his identity and experience.

And he's a Taoist priest, so he's not busy killing ghosts and getting rid of zombies, drinking coffee in a western restaurant every day, is he so free?
How can a Taoist priest have so much money?

You must know that the western restaurant at this time is a very high-end thing, and ordinary people really can't afford it.

But if he said no, wouldn't his behavior of eating and drinking be inappropriate now?

So, whether the answer is yes or no, there are questions!

However, this girl really has something, although she is still a little tender, but she is worthy of being the young lady of a rich family.

"Miss Ren, do you know why I only eat well-done steaks instead of the so-called medium-rare?"

Lin Jiu picked up a piece of steak with a flat face, and did not answer Ren Tingting's words directly.

'What's the meaning? '

A daze flashed in Ren Tingting's eyes, she didn't understand what the question she asked had anything to do with the steak, but she subconsciously said, "Why?"

"There is no reason, because food must be cooked. This is the truth that has been passed down from our ancestors."

Lin Jiu glanced at her indifferently, but then said meaningfully:
"As for being a human being, it's also the same principle. If you have some color, you will know it when you put it on the pot. If the ingredients are not enough, this person will have diarrhea or even get sick after eating it."

After saying that, he stuffed the steak on the fork into his mouth and chewed it.

'This Taoist priest! '

Ren Tingting was startled for a moment, then her face turned red suddenly, feeling a little ashamed and angry.

She understood the meaning of the other party's words. This was using food as a metaphor to show whether he has the ability, but it is natural to have the opportunity to see the truth. She is also telling herself that the little girl in her heart has been seen through, so don't hide any problems. If you are tempted, you might as well ask directly!

"Master, what are you talking about?"

Wen Cai looked blankly at the two people in the room, especially Ren Tingting who suddenly blushed, which made him unable to understand.

"Nothing to do with you."

Ren Tingting rolled his eyes at him, and when she turned to look at Lin Jiuzhi, a gleam of light flashed in her pupils.

'How could such a powerful master accept such a stupid and ugly guy as an apprentice? '

She was puzzled, but what reassured her was that the 'Ninth Uncle' invited by her father was probably not a liar.

"Uncle Jiu, I'm sorry."

At this time, Ren Fa came over, but he had just finished dealing with his friend.

"it's okay no problem."

After swallowing the last piece of steak, Lin Jiu waved to Ren Fa with a normal face.

He cut to the chase and said: "Okay, Master Ren, now we have to eat and drink, and we need to talk about the matter of moving the grave."
