Chapter 339: I asked Wang Jin to
"study by myself." Wei Jin also replied.
"How can you be so good at self-study?" Chu Lan asked.
"I have been gifted since childhood." Wei Jin also replied. After hearing this, Chu Lan turned to Wei Ruo and asked: "Miss Wei, I am very interested in your guard. I wonder
if you can let me have a discussion with him?"
The guard accidentally injured His Highness, what should we do?" Wei Ruo replied.
"Since this is a discussion that I proposed, I will never blame anyone if I get hurt." "
Absolutely not. Your Highness is currently in a post. If you get hurt, the impact will be far-reaching. The Wei Mansion cannot bear this responsibility." Wei Ruodao.
"Ms. Wei's words make sense. How about this? I'll let my guards come and compete with your guards, so there's no need to worry." Chu Lan changed her mind.
Chu Lan had finished talking about this, and Wei Ruo couldn't refuse anymore, so she turned to look at Wei Jinyi.
Wei Jin also nodded to Wei Ruo, indicating that he could handle it.
After receiving Wei Jinyi's response, Wei Ruo agreed to Chu Lan's suggestion: "The civilian girl has no choice but to obey, but we'd better wait until we return to a safer place to discuss the matter. The terrain here is complicated and steep, which is not conducive to action." "Okay
. "Chu Lan agreed.
Then several people continued to inspect the environment along the river.
After walking around for a while, it was already an hour later when we returned to the wasteland.
"Miss Wei, am I lucky enough to taste your snake soup?" Chu Lan asked.
Wei Ruo originally planned to take the snake back to the Wei family and eat it with Wei Jin in his yard, but Chu Lan, a shameless man, actually asked her about it.
"Folk girls don't dare. The agaric snake is poisonous. If not handled properly, the snake soup will be poisonous." Wei Ruo explained.
"I believe in Miss Wei's craftsmanship. If Miss Wei still has concerns, I can let my subordinates taste it first. I will taste it after making sure it is ok." Chu Lan said.
Chu Lan directly blocked Wei Ruo's retreat.
"Then a common girl can only be respectful rather than obey orders."
Wei Ruo had no choice but to agree.
Then everyone went to the nearby camp where the land reclamation residents were resting. It was time to work. The refugees and victims of the land reclamation were all in the fields, and the camp was very empty.
Chu Lan planned to have a meal here, so the government officials on duty immediately made a clean room.
Although it is a relatively clean house, it is still very simple. The cooking place is in the open space in front of the door.
A makeshift stove, a large iron pot, and only a little salt as seasoning.
Wei Ruo arranged for Xiaobei to handle the ingredients, light a fire and boil water, and arranged for Xiumei to go back to her carriage to get spices and seasonings. If there was only salt, the snake soup would not be delicious.
At the same time, Chu Lan asked the guards around him to fight Wei Jinyi.
The two exchanged blows in the open space next to them. In just ten moves, Wei Jin also defeated Chu Lan's subordinates.
Chu Lan's subordinates fell to the ground, but Wei Jinyi showed no signs of embarrassment on his body. The huge gap in strength was evident.
Chu Lan frowned and then relaxed. The frown was because he was surprised by the martial arts attainments of the person in front of him, and the relaxation was because the stone in his heart fell.
After watching the exchange, Chu Lan felt that this person was not the same person as the one who attacked him that day.
This person's skill seems to be superior to that person's! If this was the person who attacked him that day, he probably wouldn't have been able to wait until he was rescued by Xu Heyou.
Chu Lan walked up to Wei Jinyi and asked, "What's your name?" "Wang Jinyi." Wei Jinyi replied.
"Are you interested in working with me as an errand?" Chu Lan asked.
"Thank you for your appreciation, Your Highness, but the Wei family has given me life-saving and upbringing benefits." Wei Jin also replied.
"I can't force you to do this, but whenever you have an idea, I will welcome talents like you here at any time." Chu Lan said.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness." Wei Jin also replied.
Chu Lan looked at Wei Jinyi now and felt much more comfortable than at the beginning. He had an ordinary appearance, but his posture and eyes gave people an outstanding feeling, which was very consistent with his status as a master.
When the conversation between the two ended, the snake soup and snake pot made by Wei Ruo were already smelling of meat.
Wei Ruo did not do the cooking himself, but only assisted from the side. The chef was Xiumei.
After peeling and removing the internal organs of the akid snake, use cooking wine and ginger to remove the fishy smell, then put half of it into the pot to cook snake soup, and the remaining half is used to make snake soup. The seasoning for snake soup is relatively simple, just salt and some pepper. Can.
The method of making this snake pot is similar to making eel pot. The cut ends of the snake meat are stir-fried with onion, ginger, garlic, cooking wine, soy sauce and other seasonings. Garlic is spread on the bottom of the casserole, and the fried snake meat is transferred to the casserole and simmered until the snake meat is soft and tender.
There was no casserole here, so Wei Ruo found another iron pot instead.
If he were at home, Wei Ruo would definitely have the leisure to cook a few side dishes to go with it, instead of just eating snake meat.
But as soon as he saw Chu Lan, Wei Ruo lost his leisure and asked Xiumei to make the snake.
After the snake soup and snake pot were ready, Wei Ruo asked Chu Lan's entourage to serve some to taste. After the entourage ate it to make sure it was not poisonous, he gave Chu Lan a bowl of snake soup and a plate of snake pot.
Then Wei Ruo could serve the snake soup and snake meat to himself, Wei Jinyi, Xiumei and Xiaobei.
Wei Ruo had already said it before. He had a very good relationship with his servants at home. When dining out, he and they would taste and share delicious food together, so Wei Ruo's move did not arouse Chu Lan's suspicion.
After tasting, Chu Lan praised: "Miss Wei's craftsmanship is as amazing as Miss Wei's farming knowledge."
Unlike before, this time Chu Lan did not hesitate to praise Wei Ruo's cooking skills.
His attitude towards Wei Ruo has changed a lot from before. Although he thought she had a pair of skillful hands before, he didn't appreciate her so much.
Now his appreciation and interest in her are second only to his interest in Xu Heyou.
"Your Highness, you are praising the wrong person. Today's snake soup and snake pot were all made by my personal maid Xiumei." Wei Ruodao.
Chu Lan raised her lips and smiled and said, "Miss Wei is really lucky. There are so many talented people around her." "
People's girls are frightened. There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers around Your Highness." Wei Ruo replied.
After everyone finished using the snake soup and snake pot, Wei Ruo asked Chu Lan to leave on the grounds that it was getting late.
Chu Lan agreed, personally escorted Wei Ruo to the carriage, and then watched her and her entourage leave.
After walking a little further, Wei Ruo breathed a sigh of relief in the car: "I'm so exhausted. I feel like it's hard to breathe in front of him! I'm tired of talking, tired of doing things, and I have to constantly guess the meaning behind his words. , I'm really exhausted!"
"Don't worry, he won't be able to threaten you in the future." Wei Jin also said to Wei Ruo.
"Second brother, you'd better comfort me." Wei Ruo smiled and leaned against the carriage, "Second brother was really right to disguise himself today. It really saved a lot of trouble."
Wei Jin also didn't answer . Instead, he said to Wei Ruo: "Ruo'er, if you hear some rumors about my misfortune in the future, don't believe it."
Wei Ruo: My name is He You Wei
Jinyi: Well, my name is Wang Jin
