Chapter 59 Xunfeng Tastes New Dishes, Shenhe Receives Ganyu
"Hehe, this isn't some weird dish~ It's matsutake stuffed meat rolls. By wrapping minced meat around matsutake mushrooms, the natural aroma of the matsutake mushrooms and the rich flavor of the meat are perfectly blended together. Why don't you give it a try?"
"Wow, it seems like Senior Sister is really serious this time. Qiqi, shall we try some together?"
With a smile, Yao Yao enthusiastically picked up a matsutake mushroom with her chopsticks and placed it in the bowl in front of Qi Qi.
"Yaoyao, thank you."
Qi Qi nodded slightly, raised her stiff hand, picked up her chopsticks, and began to taste. (Although she couldn't really taste anything.)
"If you want to thank someone, thank your senior sister! As long as she doesn't encourage eating giant octopus from Yunlai...it's too dangerous!"
"Hmph, the giant octopus from the clouds is delicious! Yao Yao, don't regret it someday!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiangling covered her mouth and chuckled.
"I wouldn't dare eat a giant octopus, Senior Sister. You shouldn't be thinking about turning any live creature into food. That's too dangerous! Master and I would be worried!"
After saying that, Yao Yao crossed her arms slightly angrily, staring firmly into Xiang Ling's eyes.
"Oh, alright, alright, I really don't know who the real senior sister is."
Amidst casual conversation and a flurry of praise, the food tasting session concluded...
"As expected of a master chef, Xiangling, your dish perfectly combines the essence of the mountains and forests with the nourishment of the sun and moon. It is so delicious that one can't help but linger and have endless thoughts after eating it."
Xunfeng wiped his mouth and then gave Xiangling a thumbs up.
"It's not that exaggerated! I just want to make ingredients that people are satisfied with."
After hearing Xunfeng's praise, Xiangling scratched the back of her head shyly.
Just then, a familiar voice reached Xun Feng's ears from behind.
"Oh no, Morax was right! The streets smell so good today, I can't smell the snacks from Wangshengtang at all!"
With a dejected expression, Ruo Tuo struggled to sense the surrounding atmosphere.
Immediately afterwards, the lingering aroma of the matsutake mushroom stuffed meat rolls reached Ruoduo's nose.
"!"
Ruoduo's eyes widened in an instant, and he turned around abruptly.
The next second, he walked slowly toward the leftovers of matsutake mushroom stuffed meat rolls on the table, as if it were a machine.
Just as he was about to grab the plate and start eating, Xunfeng interrupted him sharply.
"Hey, Ruo Tuo, are you starving?! This dish is almost finished, why are you eating the leftovers?"
Startled by Xun Feng's sudden voice, Ruo Tuo quickly regained his senses.
“I haven’t eaten anything all day, from yesterday until now…”
As Ruoduo spoke, his stomach began to rumble in protest.
"..."
Xiangling, who was standing nearby with sharp eyes, immediately noticed Ruotuo's plight of being hungry.
"Please sit here and wait a moment, the food will be served shortly."
……
One hour later.
"Mmm...I'm full..."
Ruo Tuo patted his belly with satisfaction, grinned, and left his seat with a flourish.
Xiangling was left standing there in shock.
After all, she never expected that Ruo Tuo would eat all the dishes at Wanmintang before saying that he was no longer hungry.
"Ahem, we'll just have to put it on the account of the Rebirth Hall..."
Xunfeng looked helplessly at Ruotuo, who was standing to the side with a happy expression on her face, and gritted her teeth slightly.
Hu Tao earns Mora with great difficulty, and you, kid, eat so much!
At this moment, Hu Tao naturally couldn't hear Xun Feng's thoughts.
"Is everything ready in the River of Oblivion?"
"Report... Master, everything... is installed..."
As Wangchuan reported, he breathed heavily and weakly.
It is worth mentioning that the two came here to deal with the matter of the old man's premature death caused by the previous Mondstadt disaster, which was due to excessive fright.
The remains of the 30 elderly people who died of natural causes, as previously recorded, were all laboriously moved by Wangchuan onto several hearses used by the Hall of Rebirth.
"Master... could we... hire more people?... I'm always the one doing all the heavy lifting..."
"Hmm...you should have said so earlier! I've actually been looking to hire people, but there haven't been many willing to do this job. Otherwise, I would have found new employees already. But if you put in the effort, I can definitely give you a raise!"
"What?! Master, you're overthinking it. Actually, I can handle this job perfectly well on my own, and we don't need any other new people. So... how much of a raise?"
Upon hearing that Hu Tao was going to get a raise, Wang Chuan was instantly filled with motivation.
"Hmph, let's see how you do~"
"It seems I have no choice but to compete with Mr. Zhongli for the title of model worker..."
Liyue, Moonsea Pavilion.
"Phew~ The data is finally organized, I can finally relax for a few days~"
A slender young woman spoke softly in front of a desk.
"It's been so long since I've been back. I miss my master and junior sister so much."
After saying that, she slowly stood up and slung the portable bag hanging on the wall over her shoulder.
This bag is full of Liyue specialties.
"I hope Master will like it..."
At this very moment, inside Liyue Harbor.
"Master said... Senior Sister works at Yuehai Pavilion. What kind of place is Yuehai Pavilion?"
Shen He walked casually, resting his head on his raised hand as he pondered.
Meanwhile, the owner of a jade shop noticed Shen He walking towards them from a distance, noticing his extraordinary demeanor.
Without hesitation, he immediately began his sales pitch.
"Miss, we're having a promotion right now. Would you like to take a look? This is top-quality jadeite, buy one get one free!"
To his surprise, Shen He didn't even look up and continued walking straight ahead.
"..."
But in order to sell the goods as soon as possible and go home for the holiday, he couldn't care less about anything else.
"Miss, Miss, please take a look! Look at the delicate texture, the crystal-clear color, and the warm, smooth feel—it's absolutely great value for money!"
As they were talking, the jade shop owner walked up to Shen He.
Are you talking to me?
Shen He hesitated before raising his head.
“Miss, you’re joking. Of course I’m talking to you. Our jade may not be the highest grade, but it’s one of the best in Liyue Harbor.”
What is jade? Can you eat it?
Shen He stopped and began to think seriously about the herbs he usually ate.
It seemed that this was the first time she had ever seen something like this.
Just as the jade shop owner was about to continue his introduction, he heard a call from behind.
"Shen He!"
The owner of the voice was Gan Yu, who had come from Yuehaiting on vacation.
She had just reached the city center when she saw the dull-witted Shen He.
"Are you the owner of this jade shop? I'm sorry, Shenhe isn't very familiar with jade. I'm sorry, you'll have to sell it to someone else."
After Gan Yu arrived, she made a few perfunctory remarks and then left with Shen He.
