Chapter 202: Conquer! The woman with a mole on her lower abdomen (Please subscribe!)
It was the first time entering Yu Laoshi's house. Li Heng couldn't help but secretly look around and found that the interior layout was the same as Yu Laoshi herself: simple and full of scholarly atmosphere.
Yu Shuheng seemed to love black: black coat, black casual pants, hair casually tied up, and the Hetian jade pendant dotted on her fullness was mouth-watering and very eye-catching.
When he was stealing a glance at the Hetian jade pendant, the sharp Yu Laoshi's gaze shot directly into his eyeballs. Li Heng hurriedly moved his gaze away, muttering in his heart: The water quality is good, the color is white and flawless, the meat is delicate and structureless, it can pass light, it is definitely a top-grade mutton-fat jade. In later generations, one gram is worth tens of thousands. It's really valuable.
However, sigh! The mutton-fat jade pendant is just an embellishment, heh. There is something more valuable, but I can't say it! Can't say it!
The kitchen layout was on the same scale as Li Heng's small building, but it was very perfect inside, with all kinds of cooking utensils.
Li Heng didn't dare to look at Yu Laoshi's eyes, took the wild boar meat, and lowered his head to organize it.
The wild boar meat was not small, a full 15 jin or so. He had to separate it first, and while chopping with a knife, he asked, "Teacher, how much spicy can you eat?"
He had eaten with the other party for 3 days in Xiangnan, and knew she could eat spicy, but he couldn't grasp the degree, so he asked again.
Before Yu Shuheng could open her mouth, the fake Daoist behind had already spoken first, "Slightly spicy, slightly spicy, don't make it too spicy, kid. I'm scared to death of the chili in your Xiangnan!"
Li Heng joked, "Is that so? If I remember correctly, you ate the super spicy beef hot pot from beginning to end last time, and I didn't see you retreat."
"Nonsense! You didn't see me grimacing the whole time, heh. My mouth was spicy for three days after eating, and I couldn't go to the toilet. But one thing to say, your cooking is good, so I reluctantly endured it." Thinking of almost getting hemorrhoids from eating a hot pot, the fake Daoist was also scared.
After listening to the conversation between the two, Yu Shuheng smiled elegantly and said, "Then slightly spicy."
Hearing this, Li Heng stopped the work in his hands and instructed Mai Sui to get paper and pen:
"Wild boar meat is relatively smelly. Since you can't eat spicy, I have to change the method, otherwise the smell can't be covered and it can't be eaten."
The fake Daoist was also a foodie, stretched his neck and asked, "What method?"
Li Heng said, "Red-braised, using Chinese medicine to cover the smell. And wild boar meat itself is a Chinese medicine, which nourishes the five internal organs and moisturizes the skin. Combined with my Chinese medicine method, it is very effective for those with weak spleen and stomach."
Cooking is so advanced, Yu Shuheng couldn't help but glance at him several times.
Mai Sui quickly took the paper and pen.
Li Heng took the pen, faced the curious eyes of the three, and began to write medicinal materials on the paper: Angelica, star anise, ginseng, red dates, dried tangerine peel, white pepper, fennel...
He wrote more than 10 kinds of Chinese herbal seasonings, and then handed the paper to Fu Yanjie: "Fu Laoshi, there is a Chinese medicine shop in Wujiao Square, please take a trip."
For the sake of a bite to eat, Fu Yanjie was also desperate, turned around and wanted to go.
Li Heng shouted from behind: "Old Fu, buy more of each kind, for future use."
"Sigh, you don't need to instruct me, I know, I understand!" The fake Daoist happily rode his bicycle to buy Chinese medicine.
After sending one away, Li Heng turned his head to look at Yu Laoshi and Mai Sui, and in the next second, he decisively issued tasks, sent work, processed mutton, peeled winter bamboo shoots, and ginger, onion, and garlic also had to be prepared.
Hmm, how could free food be so easy to eat? Anyway, they couldn't appear under his nose. As soon as they appeared, they had to work, mainly bossing them around.
Mai Sui had special confidence in his cooking, so she peeled the winter bamboo shoots without any hesitation.
Yu Shuheng didn't say anything, washed the mutton, and then washed the onions and peeled the garlic.
Li Heng didn't stop, first cut the wild boar meat into pieces, passed it through boiling water, and then rinsed it with cold water. The purpose of this step was to remove the blood and impurities inside.
Then he started the pot and burned oil, burning tea oil. It was Yu Laoshi's family conditions that were good. There were two full large buckets of this tea oil in the kitchen, pure and natural, and it couldn't be used up at all.
Wujiao Square was not far from Bai Luyuan. After a while, the fake Daoist came back with a bag of Chinese medicinal materials.
As soon as the medicinal materials were in hand, he quickly scooped the wild boar meat out of the pot and started to boil the soup with various medicinal materials. This process was complicated but orderly. The time and heat of putting in which kind of medicinal materials and ingredients were very particular. Li Heng's orderly quality made the three feel an unspeakable feeling.
What is a master chef?
What is master demeanor?
This is it!
By now, although the dish hadn't taken shape, Yu Shuheng somewhat believed that he really had a few brushes.
The soup needed heat, and the time was relatively long. Fortunately, it lived up to expectations. Li Heng tasted the taste with a small spoon and was very satisfied. Finally, he put the soup and wild boar meat into the pressure cooker and stewed it over medium heat.
The fragrant herbal aroma came to his face. Fu Yanjie's saliva was almost flowing out. He adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and asked greedily, "How long to cook?"
Li Heng said: "20 minutes. Old Fu, help me watch the time. I'll hurry and cook the winter bamboo shoots and mutton."
"No problem, small matter, leave it to me."
Fu Yanjie glanced at his watch, remembered the time, and stayed by his side without moving: "I say you are not old, who did you learn this cooking from? In the past, I only felt that some dishes were delicious, but I didn't expect so many ways inside. I really opened my eyes today."
"Fu Laoshi, it's not that I'm talking about you, don't just think about Sister Chen all day. Read more books. There are golden houses in books, and there are jade beauties in books. If you read more, you will know." They were all old acquaintances. Li Heng didn't have so many scruples when speaking, and he was happy to say whatever he wanted.
"Don't talk nonsense, what do you mean I only think about Sister Chen? I want to think about it, but I can't think about it. Sigh, I, the old master, haven't been to her place for two weeks." Chen Siya was the hurdle in the fake Daoist's heart. Mentioning it made him heartbroken, stomping his feet, full of sadness.
This appearance made Mai Sui and Yu Shuheng unable to help but laugh.
Since the conversation had reached this point, and the ugly side had been shown, the fake Daoist simply let go and asked: "Li Heng, you have more experience in dealing with girls than me. You say I haven't been to Siya's place for two weeks. Will she forget me?"
Hearing this question, Li Heng really wanted to shovel him, shovel this idiot to death. There were female comrades here, can you say this kind of thing?
He really wanted to shout: I am a blank sheet of paper, purer than you!
But this thought was just a thought. Scanning Mai Sui and Yu Shuheng, he didn't answer directly, but asked a question that didn't answer the question: "Old Fu, do you know under what circumstances a writer can write good works?"
Fu Yanjie thought for a while and spat out three elements: "Full of emotion, many life experiences, and inspiration explosion."
Li Heng nodded and shook his head: "This is only one aspect. The most important thing is the state of having no desires and no demands, so that you can write the most perfect masterpiece according to your original intention. Once you have a utilitarian heart, some defects will uncontrollably appear.
This is called worrying about gains and losses, and haste makes waste."
Fu Laoshi tilted his head and stared at him. After a while, he spoke gently and elegantly
"You kid are truly a romantic; you've opened my mind. If I don't open a good bottle of wine for this meal today, I'd be doing you a disservice."
Having said that, Fu Yanjie slipped out of the kitchen and went home to get the red wine.
Damn it! Who's a romantic? You're the romantic, a lovesick romantic.
Seeing Mai Sui and Yu Shuheng cast strange looks his way, Li Heng felt the urge to beat up Old Fu again. He turned around calmly and focused on preparing the mutton and winter bamboo shoots.
Before long, Fu Yanjie returned, carrying a bottle of the famous Petrus red wine in his hand.
Li Heng was surprised, "Not bad, Old Fu, you're actually willing to drink this wine?"
"Look at what you're saying, isn't it just wine? Wine is meant for drinking. I don't care what brand it is; it's only a gain once it's in the belly."
Although Old Fu said it like that, his little expressions and glances were full of smugness.
Twenty minutes flew by, and the wild boar meat was out of the pot. The moment the lid was lifted, Old Fu was intoxicated by the fragrant aroma. Ignoring the fact that there were female companions present, he immediately grabbed a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Then
Then Old Fu opened his mouth wide, his eyes widened and then closed, and he said with an expression of enjoyment: "Top-notch! This is the real deal.
I really admire you, kid. If you used this skill to open a restaurant, you'd definitely make a fortune. I'd come to your restaurant to eat every day."
Li Heng shook his head: "Cooking a meal occasionally is life, but if I did it often, I would get bored."
"You're being extravagant, you're being wasteful, guarding a treasure mountain without knowing it."
Old Fu criticized him, then said to Yu Shuheng and Mai Sui, "Yu Laoshi, classmate Mai Sui, don't be reserved. Hurry up and take your chopsticks to taste it while it's hot. It's worthy of being a master's work and worth the wait."
Yu Shuheng was moved by Old Fu's words. Dignified as she was, she eventually picked up a pair of chopsticks, took a small piece, and put it in her mouth. After steadying herself to chew and swallow slowly for a few bites, she praised it under the gaze of the three:
"It is indeed delicious, exceeding my expectations for wild boar meat."
After speaking, she didn't forget to take a pair of chopsticks and hand them to Mai Sui: "You try it too."
"Okay." Mai Sui responded, picked up a piece, and took a bite. Suddenly, she understood a bit why Fu Laoshi praised it so much; it was truly a delicacy of the mortal world.
The wild boar meat was a success, and the mutton with winter bamboo shoots wasn't bad either. Later, they also made a stir-fried lettuce silk and a three-fresh soup. Four people, four dishes, they sat at a table and slowly started eating and drinking.
Originally, Li Heng had already eaten, but he couldn't resist the allure of the Petrus red wine, so he simply stayed to have a little, just a little.
Since Li Heng stayed, Mai Sui had to stay as well. Thus, the four of them drank and chatted lively, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
He asked: "Old Fu, did you buy this wine yourself?"
Fu Yanjie grinned: "Can't afford it, I definitely can't afford it. A few years ago, a friend was moving his whole family abroad to settle down, and before leaving, he gave me some good wine as a souvenir.
I thought to myself, looking at the wine makes me miss my friend, and the emotions are quite sorrowful, so it's better to just drink it and be done with it. I can't be like a woman, feeling sad about spring and autumn every day for that kid."
Li Heng was amused.
This Old Fu is also a man of temperament, quite interesting.
However, Fu Laoshi didn't stay happy for long; a single sentence from Yu Shuheng brought him back to reality: "I heard a female student is pestering you?"
Huh? Big news?
Li Heng and Mai Sui raised their heads in unison.
Fu Yanjie gave a bitter smile: "How did you know?"
Yu Shuheng said: "Siya told me."
Fu Yanjie lowered his head and pondered for a long time, finally revealing the truth: "That's just a little girl, can't take it seriously. Siya wouldn't be because of her, would she?"
Yu Shuheng waved her chopsticks lightly to interrupt, "You explain it to her yourself."
"Sigh!" Fu Yanjie sighed, shut his mouth, and drank his wine gloomily.
This matter seemed unusual; it seemed there was some hidden secret. Although Li Heng's heart was bursting with gossip, he couldn't ask too much.
Yu Shuheng asked Li Heng: "How is your family situation?"
Li Heng understood what she was asking and replied: "My father, the old man, is going to the capital tomorrow."
Yu Shuheng nodded, "If you need anything, you can come to me. I have some friends over there."
"Eh, thank you, Teacher, I'll toast you." Li Heng sincerely picked up his wine glass.
Yu Shuheng smiled, clinked her red wine glass with his, and took a small sip with extreme elegance.
Mai Sui had originally thought Yu Laoshi was a relatively cold person, but at the dinner table, she took great care of her feelings, turning her head from time to time to talk to her. Her gentle-as-jade attitude and tone greatly increased Mai Sui's favor toward her.
This meal lasted quite a long time, taking a full hour before they dispersed.
When walking out of the courtyard, Old Fu invited Li Heng to sit at his place, but he was refused, "Fu Laoshi, I'll visit another day. I still have some things to do today."
He indeed had things to do; he was still thinking about his writing. He had been indulgent enough during the day, so he couldn't be indulgent at night; he had to complete the assigned tasks.
People, you know, if you tighten up, you're strict with yourself; if you loosen up, you'll just go downhill. Sometimes, a single thought can lead to different harvests and endings.
Returning to the No. 26 small building, Li Heng washed up simply and then said to Mai Sui: "I'm going to the study, I won't keep you company. You relax and unwind yourself."
Mai Sui smiled softly, "Go ahead, I'll go to the attic to watch the stars for a while and return to the dormitory later."
Li Heng paused his steps: "You're going back tonight?"
Mai Sui said "Mm."
Li Heng thought for a moment, then stepped into the study without trying to persuade her to stay.
Seeing him close the study door, Mai Sui also came to the attic and started fiddling with the astronomical telescope. Recently, she had borrowed a book about cosmic galaxies from the library and was very interested in it, so it was just the right time to practice.
With the gentle night breeze and the faint starlight, under the dim yellow electric light, Li Heng first spread out his notebook, filled his fountain pen with ink, and then quietly read books and checked literature by himself.
At one moment, filled with inspiration, he set the book aside, held his pen with his right hand, and began to write at the desk. Tonight, his thoughts were agile, and the tip of his fountain pen moved across the white paper with a swishing sound. Before long, he had filled one page, and soon another.
Seemingly tireless, he wrote with great interest for over 5 hours. Later, if it hadn't been for the need to urinate after drinking, he would still be immersed in his creation, unwilling to wake up.
Whoosh!
Li Heng exhaled, stretched, and only after stopping abruptly did he realize his waist and back were already sore. He hurriedly stood up to stretch his body and loosen his legs. Only after relaxing a bit did he leave the study to go to the restroom.
Passing by the second bedroom, Li Heng subconsciously stopped his steps, his gaze extending to the crack under the door, but as expected, it was pitch black.
After urinating and washing his hands, splashing a few handfuls of cold water on his face, he remembered to check the time.
2:34
Well, it's so late, even if Comrade Mai Sui were resting here, she would have long since turned off the lights and gone to sleep.
With less than ten days until the Beginning of Winter, Li Heng walked to the attic in the silence. Looking far into the distance, there wasn't a single light in the entire Lushan Village; everything had fallen asleep, and there were only the occasional chirps of insects, clamoring for the vitality of this patch of land.
It's going to rain, he suddenly thought.
Heaven seemed to hear his inner voice. Ten minutes later, thunder exploded in the sky, rumbling and quite frightening, and then it started to rain.
Damn it, as soon as the thunder rang, he was so scared he immediately retreated into the bedroom. He was struck to death by lightning in his previous life, so he absolutely couldn't let it succeed in this life.
Damn it, I can't do anything to you, but can't I hide from you! With a bit of moodiness, Li Heng didn't even correct his manuscript, pulled the quilt over his head, and tried his best to fall asleep.
In a daze, there was a woman beside him, tall, with skin white as snow and flushed with red, her face blurred, and that mole the size of a red bean on her lower abdomen was so striking in the lingering intimacy. He was stunned, and then, unable to care about anything else, he hugged her fullness tightly, holding her deeply, greedily sucking in her body fragrance, his whole person from head to toe experiencing a huge challenge.
Not knowing how long had passed in the happiness, when he woke up again, he found himself lying alone on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Suddenly, the bedroom door gave a subtle "creak" and opened from the outside, and a dark shadow walked in.
Li Heng, whose gaze was unfocused, had no psychological preparation. When he suddenly saw the dark shadow, his pupils couldn't help but shrink, and he instinctively shouted in alarm: "Who?"
"It's me." Mai Sui reached out, felt for the hemp rope, and turned on the electric light.
Li Heng's eyes focused on Mai Sui's face, and the next second he decisively said: "You go out first."
Mai Sui's nose wrinkled imperceptibly, and she obediently turned and left the bedroom.
But just as she reached the doorway, her complexion flushed at a speed visible to the naked eye, redder than the azaleas covering the sky.
Fortunately, it was late at night, and Li Heng didn't notice.
Or rather, he had no mind to notice at this moment; the entire bedroom was filled with a strange smell. Damn it! I've lost all face!
I say, Comrade Mai Sui, oh Comrade Mai Sui, why did you come to my room for no reason? Isn't this intentionally trying to embarrass me?
I am, after all, a man with three women, and to let them shed tears in vain is a crime.
After fumbling with his clothes, Li Heng first poked his head into the living room. After not seeing the woman's figure, he rushed into the shower room in a daze.
No more words, hurry up and take a shower!
Damn it! Li Heng had cursed more in one night than in a whole year; it was truly too, too that, too inappropriate.
After showering and hanging up his underwear, Li Heng pondered for a moment and reached out to knock on the second bedroom door.
He understood that if there wasn't something important, Mai Sui would absolutely not come to his room, and especially in the middle of the night like this.
After a while, the door opened, revealing a pair of extremely enchanting eyes.
You look at me, I look at you, staring at each other through half a door crack, both of them were a bit at a loss for a moment.
After a long time, he broke the silence and asked: "Didn't you say you were going back to the dormitory?"
Mai Sui was a bit embarrassed to speak: "I was fascinated by observing the night sky last night and forgot the dormitory closing time."
Li Heng asked again: "Just now, was there something you wanted to find me for?"
"I heard you screaming in terror next door, so I came over to take a look." Mai Sui explained.
Li Heng was stunned: "Terror?"
"Mm."
Mai Sui gave a soft "Mm," "I started by thinking I heard wrong, thinking it was an illusion. After confirming it was you screaming, I got up and came over to check.
Did you receive some kind of fright? Or did you have a dream?"
Fright? Li Heng turned his head to look at the lightning and thunder that occasionally resounded across the sky outside the window. Could it be because of an inner fear of thunder?
Mai Sui asked: "Did you remember?"
Li Heng shook his head, "Maybe it was a dream, but I forgot. What else did you hear?"
Mai Sui smiled softly and didn't speak.
Staring at her red lips for a long time, Li Heng suddenly asked: "Did I call Song Yu's name?"
"Yes!" Mai Sui smiled.
Li Heng pressed on: "Did I call Xiao Han?"
Mai Sui said: "No."
Li Heng was silent for a while, and finally instructed: "Don't tell anyone about this, not even Song Yu."
Mai Sui blinked, "Okay."
"Then you continue sleeping, I'm going back to my room." Li Heng said.
Mai Sui didn't make a sound, preparing to close the door.
Just as the door was about to close, Li Heng suddenly reached out and pushed it open, poking his head in to ask: "By the way, let me ask you something presumptuously."
Looking at the man within reach, Mai Sui took a small step back, "Go ahead."
Li Heng hesitated for a while, biting his cheek and saying: "I read in a fortune-telling book that I would meet a noble person with a mole on her lower abdomen. Do you have a mole on your lower abdomen?"
In the middle of the night, lower abdomen? What kind of question is this? Mai Sui was a bit confused.
