Chapter 77
Zhuge Ningning was sitting in the hall of Yan's house with a confused look on her face. She didn't know why her biological mother brought her and Zhuge Mengmeng to the Yan's house suddenly.
Of course, besides them, Yan Hanguang was also there.
The Yan family's closer relatives and friends are all here.
Yan Hanguang poured a glass of water for Zhuge Ningning and Zhuge Mengmeng.
When he was a child, he grew up in the Yan family. The Yan family was Yan Hanguang's second home, so he was very familiar with the Yan family.
"Second brother," Zhuge Ningning suppressed her inner displeasure and complained to Yan Hanguang, "Why are you here with us? I'm still typing at home... No, I'm previewing the content for the next semester."
He knew this was a lie as soon as he heard it. Yan Hanguang didn't believe that she was previewing the content for the next semester, so he bluntly exposed it: "You are just playing games, don't say it in a high-sounding way."
Zhuge Ningning wanted to rush forward and cover his mouth.
Mrs. Zhuge glanced here, snorted lightly and did not come to trouble Zhuge Ningning.
Zhuge Mengmeng thought it was better to save her sister, so she changed the topic: "So why did you call everyone in our family here?"
Their family of four is here except for their father. The reason why his father is absent is because he is a garrison general on a remote planet and cannot leave his post at will.
Yan Hanguang's parents were not here either, but due to the nature of their work, it was common for these two not to show up for a year and a half.
"My uncle said that my eldest brother is going to go on an expedition the day after tomorrow. The whole family is invited to come and have a gathering, which can be regarded as a farewell for him."
Zhuge Ningning's eyes widened: "My cousin never did anything like this before when he went on an expedition."
Yan Hanguang couldn't hold back and dunked on her head: "Shut up, why are you making excuses? Just wait here."
Mother Yan saw Yan Hanguang's actions and raised her voice: "Hanguang, don't bully your sister."
Yan Hanguang responded and made no move.
Zhuge Ningning smiled proudly at Yan Hanguang, and Mrs. Zhuge turned her head unbearably. It was hard to believe that her daughter could be so stupid.
Mother Yan smiled: "Ning Ning is lively and innocent, which is a good thing."
Mrs. Zhuge said helplessly: "Sister, you are spoiling her like this. She is innocent now, what will you do in the future?"
Mother Yan said lightly: "Don't worry, our family can't let our children be bullied."
But this will all happen in the future. Ningning is only a freshman now, and it will be more than three years before she graduates, so there is no rush. Mrs. Zhuge asked other things: "Did Tie Yi say that he would find us all?" What's the matter with you?"
"He said he made three dishes and asked us all to try them."
Mrs. Zhuge raised her eyebrows: "He said he did it?"
The sun comes out in the west?A person who has never learned cooking actually talks about cooking. This sounds a bit incredible in the interstellar world.
Mother Yan nodded: "That's what he said. Since he has said so, let's wait and see."
Mrs. Zhuge was a little worried: "Ningmeng is definitely fine, but Mengmeng, you know, her body can't eat too much."
Yan's mother is still very confident in her son: "He will definitely consider this. Since he called Mengmeng over, don't worry too much."
At this time, Yan Tieyi was in the room studying what Su Chaoliu had given him.
He only succeeded in sending Chongming out at around three o'clock today. To be precise, he smuggled him out. He was not without pressure in doing this illegal thing. After all, if he was discovered, he would definitely go to a military court.
But there is no way, he has to do this, he can't just watch something happen to Chongming under his nose, and Chongming can't live on Yanhuang Star now, because his identity is "death", and there are no people who can do it. Don't want him alive.
However, Chongming must live.
Instead of just sending the person out, he still had to clean up the mess to avoid leaving traces and clues for others to catch. He basically didn't sleep. When he came back, he received a courier from Su Chaoliu.
Three sealed packages for express delivery.
The whole chicken is sealed in a container. Interstellar's transportation and preservation technology is quite complete. Low-temperature preservation is easy to do. You don't even need to add money. You just check the box when placing an order, so the chicken you get will never spoil. Other ingredients, such as onion and ginger, have also been processed and can be used directly. The sauce should be stored in another sealed container.
Oh, by the way, in order to express sincerity, Su Chaoliu also gave a pot and two thermos boxes.
I have to say that Interstellar’s technology is really very convenient. One pot can handle steaming, roasting, and stewing. They asked someone from the Mechanical Design Department to make this pot for their own use, but it was given to them as a gift. Yan Tieyi.
Su Chaoliu also wrote a long list of suggestions and preparation methods. Although the heat preservation effect of the insulated box is very strong and it will look like it has just come out of the pot after being left for a day and night. However, since there is too much soup in the stew, the steamed one should be cooked first. Roasted and finally stewed.
Following Su Chaoliu's suggestion, Yan Tieyi first laid a layer of green onion and ginger in the inner pot, then put the chicken on top, poured water into the outer layer, and then set the method, temperature and time, and then started steaming.
After steaming for about 10 minutes, the pot turned off the heat and stopped heating. Yan Tieyi opened it and put the steamed chicken into the insulated box with tongs.
Then there is the roasting, which is not difficult. Just put the marinated chicken into the cleaned inner pot and cook it in the same way. The difference from steaming is that you need to brush the sauce several times during the roasting.
Yan Tieyi didn't know how they made the sauce. It was said to be jam. Although he didn't know why jam could be used to cook, it didn't stop him from trusting Su Chaoliu.
The chicken soup that he had already made once was even more familiar, not to mention that the ingredient package Su Chaoliu sent him had even cut the radishes and put several dried mushrooms in waiting for the chicken soup to be ready, Yan Tieyi began to cut the whole chicken into pieces...no, cut it into pieces.
Even if he doesn't join the army, if he enters the black market, he will be an excellent killer. With his hands wearing film gloves, he holds a blade as thin as a cicada's wings, and his hand cuts along the texture of the chicken without shaking at all. , cut a whole chicken into small pieces, and the blade is so thin that even when the blade leaves the chicken, the two pieces of chicken are still tightly attached, and there is no trace of a cut.
Even an interstellar house cannot completely isolate the flow of air.
Yan Hanguang was the first to realize the fragrance in the air, followed by Zhuge Ningning. The five senses of a supernatural warrior are always more sensitive.
Zhuge Ningning has a very good memory for the food she has eaten. She sniffed hard and recognized the fragrance in the air: "It's chicken soup."
"You have a good nose," Mrs. Zhuge nodded. "I've never seen you so active when studying."
Come, come, come, the parents’ eternal words.
However, Zhuge Ningning was already immune to such words and smiled without refuting.
Yan Tieyi walked out of the elevator with the flying robot: "Han Guang, come here and help me."
Yan Hanguang responded and immediately stepped forward to help put the things brought by the robot on the table.
There is a conference table in the Yan family, and there is no other table that can accommodate so many people.
Zhuge Mengmeng was the first to rush forward. She rushed to Yan Hanguang's side and poked her head to see what he took from the robot.
"It's indeed chicken soup," she said happily, "Sister was right."
She had eaten chicken soup three days ago. Although she would feel tired after drinking too much chicken soup, she missed the taste of chicken soup after not drinking it for a day.
"Then drink more." Yan Hanguang said with a smile and went to get other things.
A plain-cut chicken and a roasted chicken were also served on the table.
Zhuge Mengmeng commented again: "I have never seen these two dishes before, so I don't know if they are delicious."
Yan Hanguang hadn't eaten it either, but that didn't stop him from saying helplessly: "You've only eaten so many dishes before you dare to comment casually."
Zhuge Mengmeng said quite confidently: "I have never tasted it, but I have heard from Sister Chaoqi that there are many dishes."
Especially during Su Chaoqi's live broadcast, she quoted classics and introduced many historical dishes.
After saying that, she suddenly froze, and her eyes couldn't help but focus on these three dishes.
Yan Hanguang was also a little stunned.
They finally realized something was wrong.
Where did Yan Tieyi get these three dishes, or did he "make them himself".
As far as they know, no chef is willing to let guests take away food, requiring them to eat in the restaurant, and when will Yan Tieyi know how to cook?
Among the people they knew, there was only one person... no, two people who were capable and could do such a thing.
The two looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.
"This..." Zhuge Mengmeng opened his mouth and then closed it, opened and closed it again, "No way..."
Yan Tieyi came to his senses and whispered: "Don't say anything."
These are just their guesses. Even if they want to ask, it is best to ask them in private. Asking them in front of the elders is not just to cause trouble for themselves and Yan Tieyi.
Zhuge Ningning was still unaware. She came over and said in surprise: "It smells so good. My cousin's craftsmanship is actually so good?"
Neither Yan Hanguang nor Zhuge Mengmeng reminded her, but Mrs. Zhuge frowned.
"Go and call your uncle to come down." Mother Yan patted Zhuge Ningning on the shoulder and said.
Father Yan is the highest-ranking general in Yanhuang Star. He has been awarded the military rank of "Marshal" and is now semi-retired, but this does not affect his influence in Yanhuang Star at all.
Marshal Yan looks at least [-]% similar to Yan Tieyi, but there are more traces of time and he has more power.
He didn't bother to show up today because none of his peers with whom he could talk came. He just said hello and went back to the study to deal with his own affairs. At this time, Zhuge Ningning called him down and still had some doubts: "Why?" Already?"
Yan's mother explained to him: "Your son said he made three dishes by himself and wanted us to taste them."
Marshal Yan was even more confused: "He? Cooking? He still has this ability?"
He was used to leading troops, and his speaking style was extremely cold and stern, making ordinary questions sound like questions.
Fortunately, Yan's mother had long been accustomed to his speaking style and smiled: "We'll find out later."
