Chapter 57: Sudden Bad News
Knowing that Chu Xun loved to eat delicious food, Tang Shijun took him to taste all three specialties of Fenggu City.
Tender tofu sliced, stuffed with a filling of minced chicken breast, shrimp, and shiitake mushrooms, coated in egg white and fried until golden, then slow-stewed in broth to make Grain-Brewed Tofu.
Salty and sweet wheat-fragrant crispy cakes, the salty cakes stuffed with preserved mustard greens and minced meat, the sweet cakes embedded with osmanthus honey.
Fresh grass carp pounded into fish paste, mixed with buckwheat flour, and made into fish-shaped noodles pointed at both ends and round in the middle.
Mixed with Sichuan pepper, minced garlic, and aged vinegar, sour, spicy, and refreshing.
This made Chu Xun eat so happily that he couldn't help but say, "Big cities are still better. Unlike in the village, where we can only eat pig head meat, roast chicken, sausages, roast duck, and the like."
Passersby nearby were dumbfounded hearing this. Is this human language?
Tang Shijun laughed heartily upon hearing this, pointing at Chu Xun and saying, "You, oh you, with such massive abilities, yet you only set your mind on eating something good. It's truly a waste."
Chu Xun didn't mind and said, "Life is long. If one can't even eat well, it would be too meaningless."
