Chapter 729: Wrapped Rice Of The 100 Styles of Rice Cuisine
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Those intelligent people would usually trip over themselves due to their smarts. So did Qin Xiaoyi. Actually, Wu Hai never robbed strangers of anything.
At least, they had to be the friends of his friends.
It wasn’t because Wu Hai suddenly had a sense of shame. He just feared that he would be beaten if he robbed strangers of their food.
Force was never what Wu Hai did well in, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been beaten so badly by his own younger sister. He didn’t even have any capabilities to resist her.
Tea Eggs, Yuxiang Shredded Pork, Melt-In-The-Mouth Chicken Feet, Phoenix-Tailed Prawns, Steamed Tofu with Minced Pork, Translucent Beef Slices, Silk Twined Rabbit, Sliced Boiled Pork with Garlic Sauce and a serving of 100 Styles of Rice Cuisine as well as a cup of Lemon Water to whet the appetite.
Wu Hai’s table was full of delicious dishes, more specifically, meat dishes. There was not a single vegetable dish at all. Don’t get it wrong. Wu Hai was alone and his appetite was extraordinarily good today.
Wu Hai wasn’t sensitive to others’ gaze. He might have been quite used to people’s gazes or he might have been slow-witted. However slow-witted he was, he could still perceive Qin Xiaoyi’s glance since he looked at Wu Hai whenever a dish was served.
He turned his head and found a short man with glasses was staring at him vigilantly as if he were a thief. Precisely speaking, it was worse than that.
Then, Wu Hai became stupefied and began to think if he knew this person?
He thought hard for quite a while, but failed to recall anyone like him. But if they didn’t know each other, why did this person have such fierce and malicious gaze. Presumably, they definitely had some profound hatred with each other.
“Did I ever set fire to his store?” Wu Hai knitted his brows and touched the two tufts of his small mustaches.
At the other side, Qin Xiaoyi also ordered the Dongpo Pig Knuckle after the dishes were all served. He had creatively invented a new food of the 100 Styles of Rice Cuisine.
The eating method invented by Qin Xiaoyi was a little special, but he had long been expecting to try this new eating method over here. Since the Dongpo Pig Knuckle was too expensive in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, however, it was the first time he tried it here.
Speaking of which, this eating method was invented by Qin Xiaoyi during a banquet. Though there were many dishes in the banquet, he couldn’t find any that he liked eating. After several consecutive times of not eating his fill, he invented this eating method, which could both let him eat his fill and eat to his heart’s content.
Just when Qin Xiaoyi was thinking of that, Zhou Jia served the Dongpo Pig Knuckle.
“Here’s the Dongpo Pig Knuckle for you two. Please take your time and enjoy,” Zhou Jia put down the plate gently and then said.
“Thank you.” Qin Xiaoyi nodded his head and thanked her.
“You are welcome.” After saying that, Zhou Jia turned around and left.
“Come on. Let me teach you a new eating method,” Qin Xiaoyi looked at Wu Hai carefully and then said happily to Happy.
“I know. It’s the Wrapped Rice eating method, right? I also know that,” Happy said indifferently.
“Don’t belittle this eating method. It’s super delicious and I think it can be considered to be a new type of the 100 Styles of Rice Cuisine,” Qin Xiaoyi said with great confidence.
“Don’t think I won’t snatch your food because you have taught me a lot in work-related matters. I won’t show mercy later,” Happy stared at the plates on the table and said with high aspirations.
“You think too much. I don’t think you can win. Look at me.” After saying that, Qin Xiaoyi directly got started.
“Shua”. Qin Xiaoyi picked up the chopsticks and started immediately on the Dongpo Pig Knuckle.
The Dongpo Pig Knuckle was also cooked creatively by Yuan Zhou and there were two eating methods, too. One was eating it hot while the other eating it cool. With regards to the invention of Qin Xiaoyi, it must be eaten hot. Therefore, he got started swiftly.
On the surface of the brown glossy pig knuckle was the pig skin with oil droplets. It was just what Qin Xiaoyi armed at.
He inserted the chopsticks into the pig skin and slightly rotated them. Then, he peeled away a big piece of pig skin and made it into a roll. The size was just perfect.
“As expected of Boss Yuan’s craftsmanship. The pig skin is quite intact.” Qin Xiaoyi was of both satisfaction and admiration.
“Humph.” Happy directly picked up the piece of pig knuckle without pig skin and put it in his own bowl.
Qin Xiaoyi nevertheless disregarded him. While the gravy over the pig skin was still there, he immediately put it on the plain white rice in his own bowl.
Instantly, the heat of the rice rose up. Along with the originally steaming hot pig skin, the brown glossy gravy over it immediately dropped on the plain white rice, making the translucent rice grains turn brown, too. It carried the grease and gave out an alluring fragrance of meat.
In rapid sequence, Qin Xiaoyi pressed both sides of the pig skin with chopsticks into the rice until it was stuffed with rice. After it became a roll, he picked it up.
“It looks more delicious.” Looking at the Wrapped Rice in front of him, Qin Xiaoyi couldn’t help swallowing the saliva.
Outside of the Wrapped Rice, it was the flexible pig skin of the Dongpo Pig Knuckle, which had been dyed brown by the gravy. Inside, the originally translucent rice grains were also dyed into a brownish red by the gravy. Furthermore, there was abundant gravy and thus it became shiny. And because he rolled the Wrapped Rice too tightly, some gravy even flowed out and dropped on the plain white rice in the bowl.
The two colors formed a sharp contrast and the fragrance curled upward and rushed into his nose.
Qin Xiaoyi opened his mouth wide and stuffed the Wrapped Rice into his mouth.
“Wow. It tastes so good.” Qin Xiaoyi sighed with emotion vaguely. He slightly squinted his eyes and began to chew.
The Dongpo Pig Knuckle had been deep fried when Yuan Zhou cooked it at the start, but when it was simmered later, the outer skin became soft and chewy. After the rice was wrapped inside, they formed a fantastic combination of taste.
The fragrant rice, the pig skin full of heavy gravy, and the grease contained therein brought about an abundant and different mouthfeel to the Wrapped Rice. Every bite gave him a different feeling.
Qin Xiaoyi even supported his chin gently with one hand for fear that the gravy would flow out of his mouth and get wasted.
“Good, it’s so tasty,” Qin Xiaoyi gulped it down and couldn’t help saying continuously.
Even if the taste was so wonderful that he almost swallowed his own tongue up, Qin Xiaoyi didn’t forget to monitor each and every move of the hungry wolf in front of him.
On the other hand, Qin Xiaoyi felt quite happy to scramble for the food.
“Stop it. This piece of meat is mine.”
“Yours? How do you prove that? Does it answer you when you call it?”
It was a boisterous scene. They not only scrambled for the dishes with chopsticks, but also quarreled orally in a low voice.
However, Qin Xiaoyi was in a disadvantageous position this time, because he was distracted by something.
“What are you constantly looking in that direction at? Is there a beautiful girl?” Happy ate a mouthful of Dual-taste White Oil Tofu and asked again.
“Shameless Wu is beside us.” Qin Xiaoyi winked at him.
Happy first stared blankly and then came to himself. Although he was more afraid of the sharp-tongued Lee Yanyi, another of the ten cancers, compared with Wu Hai, Wu Hai was indeed quite terrifying.
According to the rumors among people, Wu Hai was like a shameless Taotie 1 . It went to extremes in order to grab something to eat.
Therefore, Qin Xiaoyi constantly observed Wu Hai’s every movement just in order to protect his food.
“Well, it seems that I don’t know him.” Looking at the new eating method of Qin Xiaoyi, he got a shine in his eye and then thought affirmatively.
Wu Hai wasn’t a deep thinker. He suddenly stood up and walked to Qin Xiaoyi quickly.
Wu Hai had always been a man of action rather than a daydreamer. However, this movement really scared Qin Xiaoyi.
