Chapter 510 The One Who Got Knife
Chapter 510 The One Who Got Knife
"Girl Ling, try this roast duck. It tastes a little different from what you usually eat outside." Old Hong picked up a piece of duck skin and meat with a serving chopstick and put it in Fu Ling's bowl.
"Thank you, Grandpa Hong." She tasted it and her eyes lit up. "It's delicious, so crispy, and a little spicy. Did they add spicy food when they grilled it from the beginning?"
"Haha, yes, this roast duck restaurant is really unique. Grandpa rarely eats there. Since you're here today, I specially asked Xiao Tao to buy some for you."
"It tastes really good, Grandpa Hong, where is this store? I'll buy a few to take back later."
"It's a half-hour drive from here. On Dongxing Road, after you exit the military compound, keep going right. Turn left at the second intersection and continue straight. You'll pass an intersection. Go straight at the intersection and turn left at the third intersection. You'll arrive."
"Ling girl, remember this? Grandpa will draw it for you later."
"Grandpa Hong, there's no need to bother. I'll remember it."
"Eat more if you like." Mr. Hong simply brought the whole plate directly to Fu Ling.
"Lao Hong, hey hey hey, I didn't even get to eat this bite. Can you please be considerate of the one-armed man?" Gai Ye expressed his dissatisfaction.
The food was taken away before he could even take a bite. He was usually not allowed to eat spicy food at home. He had been craving for the roast duck from that restaurant for a long time, and today he finally got to taste it, but oh no... the duck flew away before it even reached his mouth!
Fu Ling chuckled and returned the roast duck to its original position. "Grandpas, you can eat some spicy food today, but starting tomorrow you must avoid any of it. Especially when you're taking the medicine I gave you, you must eat a light diet. If you want to be healthy, you must control your diet, otherwise even the gods will be of no use."
"This is not very oily when we usually eat at home. Today it's all thanks to you." Gai Ye quickly picked up a piece of duck meat and put it in his mouth, chewing it, with a satisfied smile on his face.
The other old men were not very interested in this. They were used to eating light food, and spicy food would make their stomachs uncomfortable.
"I still like this crystal pork elbow." Grandpa Bi picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, with a satisfied smile on his face.
"Girl, I heard from Lao Hong that you are in college?"
"Yes, Grandpa Tang."
"It's good to study. Unlike us at that time, our family was poor and studying was a luxury. Our family had no money to support our studies. After finishing our work in the fields, we would sneak into a private school in the village and lie by the window to study." Grandpa Tang said with great nostalgia.
"That's you. My family was pretty well off when I was a child. I started learning at the age of three, but I didn't like studying! Later, I was expelled from school because I always fought with my classmates." When Gai Ye talked about his own bad things, he looked proud, as if he was not talking about himself.
"Go play somewhere else, you have such a thick skin." Grandpa Tang scolded angrily.
In addition to the special roast duck, crystal pork elbow, and Beijing-style shredded pork with bean curd wrappers, there is also a dish of hemp tofu, which is different from the one made by Aunt Chen. It turns out that different people have different ways of making this dish.
Instead of preparing rice, we steamed big, plump, white buns. We broke the buns apart, added a spoonful of hemp tofu, and closed it. The taste was absolutely amazing.
There was also a dish of fried pickled cucumber, which was sweet and sour and delicious, and a perfect match with steamed buns. Before I knew it, I had already eaten three steamed buns.
Seeing her put down her chopsticks, Master Hong poured a bowl of chicken soup for Fu Ling and picked up a chicken drumstick: "Girl, eat this chicken drumstick."
"Grandpa Hong, I've already eaten three steamed buns. I'm full." She subconsciously refused the chicken soup because she couldn't eat it...
"Haha, you'll know if you try this chicken soup. It's not that greasy." He pushed the bowl in front of her.
Fu Ling looked into the bowl and saw that the soup was indeed very clear. Out of curiosity, Fu Ling picked it up and tasted it. It was indeed good. The medicinal herbs in it enhanced the taste of the chicken soup.
"How's it going? Does it taste good?"
"Hmm, it's delicious, Grandpa Hong, have you changed your chef?" I've eaten at Grandpa Hong's place once or twice, and my memory is that the food is just edible, not delicious.
"Yes, after trying your cooking, I couldn't get used to the original taste, so I changed the chef. She also likes to research and can always make delicious food with different tastes."
"Girl, we grandfathers are all thanks to you. Old Hong is usually so stingy that when he comes to eat, he only eats vegetarian dishes and never eats any meat." Grandpa Gai complained while eating.
Old Master Hong was not annoyed, and said slowly: "I usually eat a light diet. Miss Ling specifically told me not to eat too greasy food and to eat more vegetables."
Very good, in this case he doesn’t have to say anything, these old guys are enough to prove that he listens to the doctor’s advice.
What a lovely group of old men. Although each of them has a different personality, they are all people who would risk their lives for their brothers.
Fu Ling thought for a moment, then pretended to be curious and asked, "Grandpa Hong, when I came to the military compound today, I noticed there were a lot more guards than usual. Did something happen?"
Mr. Hong paused slightly, and the others' expressions also turned unhappy. After a moment, he replied with great regret: "An old hero was assassinated in his home."
"What? There's actually such a thing?"
"How could this be true? I don't know which bastard actually dared to bully us soldiers. Don't let me touch him, or I'll break his neck with my only remaining right hand."
As expected of Grandpa Gai, he can brag without blushing or breathing heavily.
Fu Ling, the damned one, touched her nose. She showed a worried look on her face: "Is this a vendetta or is it targeting you old heroes?"
"How can we know? We all get together to play chess every day, and he's not very sociable. He doesn't really interact with us old guys. Maybe he offended someone, that guy..."
Grandpa Gai is a straightforward person and speaks directly.
"Old Gai, don't talk nonsense without evidence." Grandpa Long interrupted Grandpa Gai. He was afraid that Grandpa Gai would say something bad because he was not very careful with his mouth.
Fu Ling tactfully didn't ask any more questions. She just wanted to see everyone's reaction to this matter. It seemed that the relationship between them was not particularly good.
They are all old and smart. Except for Grandpa Gai who seems a little not so smart, the others seem to be very smart and can judge people better than her.
After dinner, Fu Ling pretended to get something from the car, transferred some nutritional supplements from the space, and gave one to everyone.
"So many, Ling girl, you came prepared today!"
Old Master Hong could see that this was not a spur-of-the-moment treatment for the old men. Perhaps he came today for this very reason. Old Master Hong looked at Fu Ling with even more doting and tenderness.
Doing good deeds without leaving a name wasn't her style. She stuck out her tongue playfully and said, "Haha, you found out!"
Grandpa Long and the others were also deeply moved: "The girl is so thoughtful."
"Yes, I will remember what you did for us. Come to me if you have any problems in the future. I will support you."
