Chapter 280 Soft yet chewy

When a large bowl of boiled beef was brought to the table by Shen Xiaoyu and placed in the middle, everyone was curious and looked at it with inquiring eyes.

"What kind of dish is this? Spicy broth?" Gu Beihe remembered eating similar dishes in the capital in his previous life, but he didn't pay much attention to what he ate before.

Leading troops to fight outside all year round, eating and drinking are very rough.

Occasionally I go to Beijing to attend various banquets, but mostly I drink wine and eat meat, never caring about the dishes in front of me.

Now that I think about it, my life has really been in vain.

"It's not broth, it's beef. It's spicy. It's called boiled beef." Shen Xiaoyu picked up the chopsticks, pushed the coriander aside, pressed it into the spicy soup, and then picked it up with the beef.

"I didn't make it too spicy, just slightly spicy. Eat it and see if you can accept it. Be careful if it's a little hot!" Shen Xiaoyu did not forget to remind everyone.

Only when the sisters saw Shen Xiaoyu eating did they dare to move their chopsticks.

Shen Youfu didn't care so much. He picked up the chopsticks, picked up the beef and started eating. He could eat it as spicy as it was. This dish was trivial to him, so he ate it happily.

"Gu Beihe, why don't you eat?" Shen Xiaoyu noticed that Gu Beihe didn't touch the boiled beef and put in several other dishes. She asked curiously, "Are you afraid of spicy food?"

"It's not that I'm afraid, it's just"

"Does that mean you can't eat beef?"

"Neither"

Shen Xiaoyu gave him a piece of beef and said, "Try it first. If you don't like it, don't eat it."

Gu Beihe remembered that he didn't seem to be able to eat spicy food, but this bowl of boiled beef looked red and oily, with lots of chili peppers, which was a bit scary.

He hesitated for a moment, then picked up the beef and put it in his mouth.

"Let's eat the side dishes too!" Shen Xiaoyu gave him a piece of cucumber and a handful of bean sprouts.

Gu Beihe felt that the beef in his mouth was smooth and tender, with a rich flavor, not too spicy, not too spicy, not too salty, and very delicious, with a distinctive yet gentle feeling.

"Is it delicious?" Shen Xiaoyu couldn't guess because his expression was not very obvious.

Gu Beihe nodded, took a mouthful of white rice, and said two words: "It's delicious."

He felt that the white rice cooked by Shen Xiaoyu was more delicious than the one at home. The rice had distinct grains and was soft and chewy. It was not like the rice cooked by A-niang or Xiyue, which was soggy and soft, like porridge but not like porridge.

After receiving the affirmative answer, Shen Xiaoyu felt happy.

"Eat more, eat more!" She hurriedly brought him some more vegetables.For the sake of the wooden cart he gave me, this delicacy is really nothing, just give it to him, maybe a few more meals.

"Second sister, this tastes a bit hot on your tongue!" Shen Xiaoli fanned her tongue with her hand. She didn't object to the spiciness, but her tongue and cheeks turned red after eating it.

Shen Xiaotao was also "laughing", but she didn't stop using her chopsticks.

Shen Xiaoyu used a spoon to gently turn over the dish.

"You can't just eat meat, but also eat more vegetables, you guys." Shen Xiaoyu was worried about their bodies, just like a mother.

Although she has no children and has never taken care of children, she feeds her friends frequently.

She was used to picking up food for others during meals and being the one who served, taking care of whether the people at the same table were well fed.

"Second sister, what did you cook for others today?" Shen Xiaotao asked curiously.

"Cooking eight dishes, I'm exhausted!" Shen Xiaoyu felt that if she took this kind of order next time, she would not do it if it exceeded eight dishes.

However, I don’t know if there will be a next time.
