Chapter 169: So Impolite?
After finishing describing a dish, Sun Wukong pointed to the next one and asked, "You ordered this braised pork today, right?"
Nüwa nodded: "Mm."
Sun Wukong rolled up his sleeves, slapped the table with both hands with a crack, his expression solemn, looking exactly like a schoolteacher.
"Then I must properly explain this braised pork to you—it absolutely deserves to be called one of my master's masterpieces. Don't mind the generous fat on top; it eats rich but not greasy, instead carrying a hint of sweetness."
"Alright!" Sun Wukong clicked his tongue, feeling a bit parched—he'd gotten carried away speaking so much just now.
After all, he was introducing and praising his master's dishes, and he had boundless energy.
"I've finished introducing all the dishes!"
"But there's still one more, isn't there?" Nüwa lightly tapped the last item. She had been listening with growing interest, and yet it was already gone!
Sun Wukong glanced over, then shook his head.
"This is a new dish my master is preparing to launch—can't talk about it!"
New dish? Is it the new dish Xuan Feng mentioned to her before?
Nüwa secretly nodded, looking toward the name of the new dish Sun Wukong had spoken of.
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall—Nüwa raised her phoenix eyebrows. This name is quite interesting, I wonder what expression the Buddhist Sect would have upon hearing this name?
Would that group of pompous bald donkeys fly into a rage?
And this illustration is far too lavish, isn't it!
Nüwa gazed at the illustration of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, her heart somewhat surprised—the soup pot exquisite, the broth rich, its beauty self-evident!
This is merely secondary; the myriad varieties of ingredients floating atop the noodles are even more enticing to the heart and spirit.
Just a glance, and Nüwa knew her own thoughts—she wanted to eat it!
"Then when will your master, Shopkeeper Chen, begin selling this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?" Nüwa couldn't hold back and finally let out a sound.
How long?
Sun Wukong's eyes rolled—his master had said this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall would be released during the Buddhist Sect's Dharma Feast.
Calculating the time, that would be...
"Roughly more than ten days from now!" Sun Wukong replied.
Upon hearing this, Nüwa furrowed her brows, showing no joy at all.
"Do I really have to wait this long?"
Her voice carried a hint of questioning—she wants to eat this new dish right now!
"This is my master's rule." Sun Wukong spread his hands helplessly, "I can't decide either."
Seeing Nüwa's displeased expression, Sun Wukong scratched his head, feeling awkward—not that he's afraid.
Even if this lady is a Holy Person with boundless magic powers, my master behind me isn't a vegetarian either!
This lady can't just go around recklessly attacking him—after all, she's consumed food at my master's place.
My master once told me to treat guests warmly, especially those who spend money—this lady's order is so lavish, she's clearly a major patron, cannot be neglected.
Glancing at the menu on the table, Sun Wukong had a sudden inspiration and chuckled: "I see you're also trying our Chaos Residence dishes for the first time. Our Chaos Residence dishes, once launched, each have their unique flavor."
"You only need to eat one dish per day; after finishing a full cycle, wouldn't it just coincide with the new dish's release?"
Nüwa murmured, thoughtfully considering it—indeed, that makes sense!
Every dish she hasn't tried yet, she wants to eat; even after finishing, she still finds it endlessly memorable.
Nüwa nodded, agreeing with Sun Wukong's words.
Yet in her heart, she never stopped anticipating Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
Phew, Sun Wukong let out a long breath—finally managed to get past that.
Picking up the menu, Nüwa casually flipped the last page over, then her eyes flashed with surprise as she softly asked, "Besides Peach Blossom Brew, do you have any other drinks here?"
"Of course!" Sun Wukong nodded.
Our Chaos Residence is now quite sizable,
how could we possibly have only this little?
Jade Finger lightly touched—Nüwa asked curiously, "Is this Peach Juice and Peach Fresh Juice tasty?"
Hearing Nüwa's words, Xuan Feng was somewhat surprised—didn't expect the lady to have noticed this too!
Back at Chaos Residence, she had originally wanted to ask about this, but got interrupted by Sun Wukong's matter.
"This isn't a matter of whether it's tasty or not!"
Sun Wukong put on a mysterious face, deliberately paused, then exaggerated: "It's incredibly tasty—can't even describe how delicious it is, especially the Peach Juice!"
Sun Wukong gestured wildly with hands and feet—this is his favorite drink!
Although Peach Blossom Brew and Peach Fresh Juice are quite good, they ultimately can't compare to the direct refreshment of Peach Soda—just pure satisfaction!
One sip and you feel utterly refreshed, every pore on your body radiating confident glow.
"Guaranteed—just one sip and you'll forget your worries!" Sun Wukong extended a finger, looking utterly certain.
Nüwa raised her phoenix eyebrows—her originally indifferent eyes now held a hint of interest, her whole face instantly gaining vitality, becoming much more lively.
Her voice suppressed a trace of excitement: "You, sure?"
"Of course!" Sun Wukong nodded: "Can my words and actions ever be unreliable?"
Xuan Feng couldn't help but roll her eyes—anyone slightly reliable should know not to speak to the lady like that. Fortunately, the lady's mood today seems good, so she didn't bother to argue.
Otherwise, this monkey wouldn't have enough lives even if he had ten.
Seeing the hint of longing on Nüwa's face, Sun Wukong scratched his head, hesitated a moment, then pulled out a cup-like object.
"I've kept a cup of Peach Juice here—taken from Chaos Residence, want a taste?" Sun Wukong tentatively said.
This is what he bought last night, planning to save it until he returns to the Heavenly Court to drink.
After all, she's a major patron—he, as his master's good disciple, naturally must treat her seriously!
Moreover, this Sanniang is still his top choice for future master's wife in his heart.
However, Sun Wukong's hand remained tightly clenched, holding the intention to immediately take it back if Sanniang did not want it.
But Sun Wukong was destined to be disappointed; he underestimated the appeal of Chaos Residence's produce to Sanniang at this moment.
"Good, thank you." Sanniang slightly smiled and accepted the cup Sun Wukong handed over without hesitation.
Xuan Feng was somewhat surprised; Sanniang actually thanked him—this is too absurd!
She has followed and served Sanniang for so many years, yet she has never heard these two words from Sanniang's mouth!
She inevitably felt a bit of sourness in her heart.
This stinking monkey actually gained Sanniang's gratitude just from a cup of water—truly too hateful!
Sun Wukong's side also did not feel very pleasant; he swore, he just wanted to test the waters a little, even if he were to back off just a bit?
He could also take the opportunity to preserve the peach soda, but now it turns out badly—he's not being polite at all...
Sanniang didn't care about those things; she has always acted as she pleased, supporting the cup with one hand.
Sanniang was somewhat surprised; unexpectedly, it was cold. She lowered her head, looking at the so-called peach juice in the cup, which showed a peach-flesh color and was still bubbling with gurgling sounds.
Sanniang raised her phoenix eyebrows; this thing looks nothing like water, almost like poison, but the peach juice originally wasn't like this—it became this way only after Chen Nuo's processing.
Sanniang didn't bother wondering whether this thing could be drunk; she felt that with this monkey's demeanor, he wouldn't deceive herself, and moreover, it's still Chaos Residence's produce.
