Chapter 141 - 102, Division Head
A whole family gathered around a small Eight Immortals table, each person with a small porcelain bowl in one hand and chopsticks pinched in the other, bustling with noise and laughter.
Not far away, the apricot tree was decorated with red ribbons, with the words peace, joy, health, longevity gently swaying in the breeze.
"Is this the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea?"
"Yes!"
"I’ve never seen some of these ingredients before," She Dengke said to Chen Ji, "Why aren’t you eating? Don’t let Liu Quxing eat it all by himself."
Liu Quxing rolled his eyes: "Haven’t you been eating? Why do you say I’m the one who’s going to finish it all?"
Chen Ji explained with a smile, "I’m not used to Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea; I’d rather eat something else."
Liu Quxing curled his lip: "No taste for good food. The ingredients for the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea are transported by the Cao Guild from the sea, and even the Yingxian Building can’t get fresh ingredients every day. Wanting to taste it is also a matter of luck."
Chen Ji just smiled without arguing.
The so-called Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea is a dish made from shark fin, sea cucumber, abalone, fish bones, fish maw, shrimp, asparagus, and ham.
For the people of Luocheng in this era, some may never see these ingredients in their lifetime, but Chen Ji had eaten them many times before, so he only served himself a small bowl and left the rest for others to try.
