Unexpectedly, Ding Ning deeply agreed with her. He threw away the melancholy in his heart and showed a bright smile. "That's true. Although we are not afraid of those lascivious men, we should have less trouble if we can. Femme fatale is not a joke. Only I can appreciate the beauty of my Xue 'er!"
"Hee hee, a woman will dress up for the man she likes. As long as I like her!"
Seeing that he was in a good mood, Luoxue said happily.
"Shameless. Where did you learn to be so narcissistic?"
Ding Ning joked with a smile.
"I learned it from you!"
Luoxue's sharp rebuttal made Ding Ning embarrassed. He seemed to be really narcissistic.
The two of them chatted and laughed as they worked. Soon, the ingredients were cleaned. Those that needed to be marinated were pickled, and those that needed to be washed were washed. The preparatory work was done.
After the ugly and disgusting ingredients were peeled off and the bones were removed, the white and clean meat was revealed. It was very appetizing at first sight. Ding Ning said proudly, "How is it? It's rotten on the outside and golden on the inside. It's a good thing that's natural and pollution-free! "
"Yes, I didn't expect that the meat inside is so crystal clear when it looks so ugly on the outside. It's obviously a top-grade ingredient!"
Luoxue nodded her little head repeatedly. "Brother, hurry up and teach me how to make Fleeting Drunken Dream!"
"Well, you're all in luck today. Fleeting Drunken Dream needs 17 kinds of seafood to be cooked together, but there is no rigid requirement for which 17 kinds of seafood. Therefore, according to the situation, the processing method of each ingredient is different. However, most seafood is cold and smells fishy, so when cooking, ginger and wine are needed to remove the fishy smell and drive away the cold. Now I'm using a special method to reduce the coldness in the seafood as much as possible. In this way, Fleeting Drunken Dream will not be a problem even for people who are allergic to seafood."
Ding Ning explained to Luoxue while demonstrating. Seeing that she was listening attentively, he felt very gratified. Although he could not carry forward Sister Qiao's cooking skills, with Luoxue, who had intelligence, tenacity, perseverance, and comprehension, she would definitely surpass her master.
"The reason why this dish is called Fleeting Drunken Dream is that the seafood contains the faint fragrance of fruit wine, but it can't completely suppress the freshness of the ingredients. It makes people feel as if they are dreaming after taking a bite, intoxicated and forgetting all their troubles. However, in order to make this dish well, one needs to strictly control the heat. If the heat is lacking, this seafood feast won't be able to achieve its best effect, and there will be a huge difference in the taste."
Ding Ning explained in detail. His movements were smooth and pleasing to the eye. "This dish needs to be steamed three times, cooked three times, and stewed three times. Therefore, when ordinary people make this dish, they need to use a temperature tester to measure the temperature at any time. They also need to control the time and be accurate to the second …"
Half an hour later, Ding Ning finally finished the last procedure of this Fleeting Drunken Dream. It would be ready to be stewed in the pot for another half an hour.
And this half an hour was the time for the two of them to make other dishes. If it was Luoxue herself, she would definitely not be able to complete such a workload. However, with Ding Ning, who was a fast knife hand, the ingredients kept changing in his hands. With his exquisite knife skills, he did not even need five minutes to finish processing all the ingredients, which greatly saved time.
In fact, except for some main dishes, the time needed to cook or stir-fry them was not long. Ding Ning completely let go and stood to the side to watch Luoxue's performance. Occasionally, he would give a few words of advice.
It had to be said that Luoxue had learned 80% of Ding Ning's skills. She started 20 stoves at the same time and cooked methodically at the same time. There were many dishes that needed to be stir-fried over a fierce fire to taste good. Because of their arm strength, girls naturally had no advantage in this aspect and rarely could they toss the ladle. Therefore, most top chefs were men. However, Luoxue was not an ordinary person after all. Although she was not strong in fighting, she still had the strength to toss the ladle.
Ding Ning could not help but nod as he watched Luoxue toss the ladle like a butterfly in front of the twenty stoves in turn without making a single mistake. She was so focused and happy that Luoxue's skill in tossing the ladle was already on par with his. She was stir-frying twenty dishes at the same time without making a single mistake. This was not something an ordinary person could do.
"Everyone is here. When can we start eating? I'm hungry … Wow, what's that smell? Why is it so fragrant!"
Zhao Jingjing sneaked into the back hall and was about to complain while rubbing her stomach. Suddenly, she smelled a strange fragrance. Her eyes brightened and she asked with saliva dripping from her mouth.
"It will be ready soon. Five minutes at most!"
Ding Ning looked at the time and said with a smile. He stretched out his hand and waved at Zhao Jingjing.
Without hesitation, Zhao Jingjing threw herself into Ding Ning's arms. She wrapped her legs around his waist like a big spider and put her arms around his neck. She wrinkled her nose cutely and pouted her small mouth. She said cutely, "I'm so hungry that I want to eat something to fill my stomach!"
Ding Ning stretched out his finger and touched her nose with a doting expression. "Little foodie, it will be ready soon. You will starve to death later!"
"No, no, I want to eat now!"
Zhao Jingjing kept twisting her small body and said in a coquettish voice.
This made Ding Ning so angry that he patted her butt gently. "Can't you speak properly? Who did you learn this from? Straighten your tongue before you speak."
A trace of slyness flashed across Zhao Jingjing's intelligent big eyes. She stole a glance at Luoxue who was concentrating on cooking and whispered in Ding Ning's ear, "I want to eat you!"
"Little vixen, you have become bold now. You even dare to seduce your husband. Let's see how I will deal with you tonight!"
Ding Ning's anger rose because of her teasing, and he said vaguely and fiercely in her ear.
Zhao Jingjing's delicate little face suddenly blushed. She rolled her eyes at him coquettishly and provocatively said sourly, "Are you OK? I didn't squeeze you dry when I handed over the public grain last night! "
"Who did I hand over the public grain to? Didn't I save it and wait to give it to you at night?"
Ding Ning blushed and tried to get away with it by jesting!
"Humph, who are you kidding? Your sister, Ye Huan, and the other three girls have been nourished by you at first glance."
Zhao Jingjing deserved to study psychology. She was observant and said with jealousy and certainty in her tone.
Ding Ning was speechless. He really couldn't hide anything from this little vixen. It was normal for Ye Huan and the other three girls to be seen through for the first time, but it was not the first time for his sister. How could she also see through it?
"Humph, I don't care. If you can't serve me well tonight, I will go to find another man!"
Zhao Jingjing was like a resentful wife in her boudoir. Her mouth was pouting so much that it could be hung on a gourd.
"Little girl, how dare you! Let's see how I will deal with you at night!"
Ding Ning said fiercely, but he secretly felt a headache. "Alas, Zhao Jingjing is so resentful, and Xiaoyao can be imagined."
"I hope you can do what you say. I will wait for you at night. If you dare to stand me up, I will immediately go to find a duck and make you a cuckold!"
Zhao Jingjing pretended that she was hungry, but she really wanted to have a one-night stand. Now that her goal had been achieved, she did not continue to pester him. She jumped out of his arms and lowered her voice to threaten him domineeringly.
Then, as if nothing had happened, she said goodbye to Luoxue with a smile and swaggered away, leaving Ding Ning, who was dumbfounded and confused in the wind.
"Haha, I didn't expect that Jingjing, a little girl who is usually so quiet, is actually so … tough in her bones!"
Zhao Jingjing thought that Luoxue could not hear her and Ding Ning's whispers because of the noise in the kitchen, but she did not know that Ding Ning and Luoxue had a spiritual contract. Luoxue heard every word of their whispers, and she could not help but tease them mischievously.
Ding Ning scratched his head awkwardly and smirked. He had never thought that Zhao Jingjing would be so clever and eccentric that she dared to say anything. Even if he and Luoxue were inseparable, he still felt his face burning as if he had a fever when she heard their flirting conversation.
At this moment, all the people who should come had arrived. There was no tense scene as Ding Ning had expected. Instead, they gathered together to talk and laugh, looking happy and harmonious.
Even Ding Qianlie and Murong Yanran chatted happily as if they had never had a conflict. Of course, what they paid most attention to was the magical background environment here.
Shen Muqing also knew Wen Rourou and Xiaoyao, but they were not friends. But at this moment, with Ling Yun, a person she was familiar with, she did not feel restrained and soon chatted with him.
When Ding Ning came out with Floating Drunken Dream, he could not help but be slightly stunned when he saw the strange girl beside Shen Muqing. He had thought that Tang Rui would accompany him, but he did not expect that it was a young and beautiful girl whom he had never seen before.
"Wow, it smells so good. Ding Ning, did you make this?"
Shen Muqing had tasted Ding Ning's cooking. Although she had a strong emotional fluctuation when she saw Ding Ning, she hid it very well. She sniffed deeply and asked with admiration.
"Yes, this is the seafood feast I made myself. It's called Floating Drunken Dream. You are so lucky today!"
Luoxue asked Ling Yun and others to help carry the dishes and showed off proudly.
"Just smelling this fragrance makes me hungry. I did not expect that Boss has a good cooking skill!"
Zhang Haifeng sniffed and jumped over. He said with an intoxicated look on his face. His dishonest hands had already sneakily reached over, trying to take a bite.
"Go, go away. Eat when the dishes are served. Don't be afraid of being burned."
Seeing that there was no smell of gunpowder, Ding Ning could not help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. He angrily pushed Zhang Haifeng's hand away and said with a smile.
"Zhang Haifeng, can you not embarrass me? I really met the wrong person and made careless friends. How could I fall in love with you?"
Liu Wenjing roared and covered her face with her hands. It seemed that she could not bear to see it and disliked Zhang Haifeng very much.
"I just want to taste Boss's cooking as soon as possible!"
Zhang Haifeng seemed to be sure that Liu Wenjing would take advantage of him. He shamelessly ran to Liu Wenjing like a pug and rubbed her shoulders and back with a cheeky look.
"Humph, you are a b * tch!"
Wu Xian, who had always been taciturn, became a lot more cheerful after the experience of work during this period. He rolled his eyes and said scornfully, "Get lost.
Third Brother, we are talking with each other. It has nothing to do with you. Come on, are you itching for a beating? I want to fight with you one-on-one! "
Zhang Haifeng was afraid of Liu Wenjing, but he was not afraid of Wu Xian. He made threatening gestures and provoked Wu Xian.
"Who wants to be a couple with you? Don't be ashamed!"
Liu Wenjing had always been a tough girl. She retorted without giving Zhang Haifeng any face.
"Of course, it is my dearest little Jingjing!"
Zhang Haifeng showed a flattering smile, nodded and bowed to please Liu Wenjing. Liu Wenjing supported her forehead with one hand and showed a painful expression of anger, but the happiness in her eyes could not be concealed.
"Come on, one-on-one. I was not the one who lost the last one-on-one!"
Wu Xian stood up and took off his coat. It seemed that he was going to fight with Zhang Haifeng, which stunned Ding Ning.
