"Haha! Since Manager Liu praises such a delicacy, this old man naturally has to give it a try! "
In the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, Feng Zhihua chuckled as he glanced at the sparkling and translucent bean sprouts on the plate.
Finished speaking, he picked up his chopsticks and directly picked up a small handful of bean sprouts without waiting for the other dishes. The pure white bean sprouts were suffused with a clear oily sheen, causing Feng Zhihua to involuntarily swallow a mouthful of saliva. He didn't hesitate any longer and hurriedly put the bean sprouts into his mouth.
"Mmm! Fragrant and juicy, crispy and sweet, with a trace of sour taste, causing one's appetite to be greatly aroused! I didn't expect to be able to eat such fresh and tender vegetables in this harsh winter, too unbelievable! Too delicious! "
The moment the bean sprouts entered his mouth, Feng Zhihua couldn't help but squint his eyes in comfort. After swallowing all the bean sprouts in his mouth, he opened his eyes and praised to Manager Liu who was beside him.
Eating vegetables in the winter had always been the "patent" of the imperial family. Some ministers who were in the emperor's favor, if they were lucky, might be able to get some vegetables as a reward from the emperor. But in any case, merchants like them would never be able to eat them.
In this era where imperial power reigned supreme, there were many things that couldn't be bought with money.
Being able to eat vegetables in the Drunken Immortal Restaurant today made Feng Zhihua extremely surprised, and he thought in his heart, "The Drunken Immortal Restaurant is truly a magical place, they actually sell vegetables in winter!"
"Haha! It's fine as long as Boss Feng is happy eating! You can eat first, this old man won't disturb your meal! "
Manager Liu said with a grin.
"Ai! Manager Liu, take care, this old man still has something that I don't understand! "
Feng Zhihua hurriedly put down his chopsticks and urged him to stay.
"Oh? Boss Feng, please speak! "
"Cough cough, this old man is just curious, why is this dish called Brothers Connected by Heart?"
Feng Zhihua pointed at the bean sprouts on the plate and asked.
"Yeah! Manager Liu, in my opinion, this is only bean sprouts, how can it be related to Brothers Connected by Heart? "
"But this thing is rather delicious in winter!"
"Yes, yes! I'm tired of eating pickled vegetables, fish, and meat in winter! It's rare to encounter such a refreshing and delicious dish, the Drunken Immortal Restaurant is indeed amazing! "
The other customers had already noticed the commotion over here and came over to join in the fun.
Shopkeeper Liu explained with a smile, "Hehe! Everyone, please take a look. This Brotherly Bond is actually made from the sprouts of soybeans. The soybeans are the elder brother, and the newly grown sprouts are the younger brother. If the two of them are connected together, what else is it but Brotherly Bond? "
Smack, smack, smack ~!
Feng Zhihua clapped and laughed loudly as he said, "Haha! Wonderful! Wonderful! What a good name! Manager Liu, this name is good. Of course, the taste of the dishes is even better! "
The rest of the diners echoed, "Interesting! Interesting! Shopkeeper Liu is really talented! "
"This brotherly bond is not bad! Shopkeeper Liu, give us two plates! "
There were also some customers who caught some clues from Manager Liu's words. They asked, "Manager Liu, you just said that this dish uses soybeans to sprout. But how can soybeans sprout in winter? Don't tell me it's soaked in water? "
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at this person as if they were looking at an idiot, causing this person to feel uneasy.
Shopkeeper Liu's old eyes flashed, and then he said to that person indifferently, "Wuzhu Liuli, this is a secret of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant. Forgive me for not being able to tell you!"
Obviously, this was a barbarian merchant who didn't know much about the ways of the Central Plains' dynasties.
"Heh ~! What is this person thinking! Didn't he ask around to find out who owns the Drunken Immortal Restaurant? How dare he come here to ask for the secret recipe! "
"That's right! He's overestimating himself! "
"Alright! Let's eat! These bean sprouts are a rare delicacy. We must eat our fill today! "
"I didn't expect to be able to eat such delicious and tender vegetables in winter! The Drunken Immortal Restaurant is too amazing! "
That barbarian merchant's face turned green and white when he heard everyone's discussion. In the end, he apologized to Shopkeeper Liu and left.
After a while, Feng Zhihua had eaten his fill. He stood up and prepared to pay the bill, but he couldn't bear to part with the delicious bean sprouts he just ate. He walked to the counter of the restaurant and asked Shopkeeper Liu in a low voice, "Shopkeeper Liu, other than selling these Brotherhood Linked Hearts in the restaurant, can this old man bring back some raw ones?"
Shopkeeper Liu narrowed his eyes and glanced at the diners in the hall. Then he said in a low voice, "Others naturally can't, but since Boss Feng requested it, this old man will naturally give face to Boss Feng! When this old man returns, this old man will have someone send 1.5 catties of freshly soaked Brotherhood Linked Hearts to Boss Feng's residence! "
Feng Zhihua was overjoyed. He cupped his hands and said excitedly in a low voice, "Many thanks, Shopkeeper Liu!"
.....
Yanhuang College's cafeteria also released a new dish today. However, unlike the elegant name of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, there were only four words added to the menu — "Stir-fried Bean Sprouts"!
At first, the students who came to the cafeteria to eat after class didn't notice that there was a new dish in the cafeteria today. The main reason was that the same meat was served every day. No one would have thought that fresh vegetables would suddenly appear. Moreover, even if someone noticed the words "Stir-fried Bean Sprouts" on the menu, they wouldn't know what kind of dish it was, so they wouldn't order it.
However, there was one person who did know, and that was Li Tai!
The little fatty came to the cafeteria after school. When he saw the new "Stir-fried Bean Sprouts" on the menu, he was shocked at first, then ecstatic. He didn't hesitate at all and directly ran to the window that sold bean sprouts.
"Master, give me three servings of Stir-fried Bean Sprouts and two bowls of rice!"
Li Tai hurriedly said when he arrived at the window. He was afraid that the dishes would be snatched away by others if he was late.
In fact, he had ordered too many dishes. Until now, he was the only one who was willing to buy bean sprouts!
"Okay! It's a total of 900 copper coins ~! "
The waiter said as he finished ordering the dishes.
The bean sprouts were sold at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant for 666 copper coins a plate. At Yanhuang College, it was only 300 copper coins. As for the rice, it was free.
"Here! Here you go! "
After the little fatty paid, he immediately carried the tray and planned to find a seat to enjoy the meal. Li Ke, Cheng Chumo, and a few others who followed behind him surrounded him. Cheng Chumo said, "Wow! Qingque, your appetite is so good today? You ate so much? Eh? What kind of dish is this? Why haven't I seen it before? "
"Oh! It smells so good! Qingque, where did you get this dish? What's its name? Tell us quickly! "
Li Ke sniffed with his nose and immediately said with a face full of excitement.
Sun Zifan licked his lips and chuckled. "That's right! Qingque! Tell us quickly, we can't enjoy the delicious food alone! "
Li Tai placed the tray on the empty seat beside him, pointed at the window where he had just gotten his meal, and said, "Here! It's at that window. The dish is called Stir-fried Bean Sprouts! Chou Niu, you guys go quickly! "
