Quick Wear: True and False Life

Gu Nan saw that after Shangguan Jinghao sat down, he kept staring at the tableware on the table. He also knew that these ancient customs and tableware were very unfamiliar to him.

She began to give him a brief introduction, trying to explain the ending before the food was served. After thinking about it, she also gave some introduction to the origin of food, including the dining etiquette of various countries in ancient Earth.

Shangguan Jinghao was shocked to hear this. This knowledge was so comprehensive. Even the historical collection on catering was not even one-fifth of what Gu Nan said.

"Sister, the food is here!" Lingzhi came up with a square plate and said more than half an hour later.

When Lingzhi brought the steamed sea bass to the table, the overbearing aroma instantly hit Shangguan Jinghao. He was surprised by these ancient Earth foods, which he had only seen in records. He did not expect that he would have the opportunity to witness a miracle on the desolate planet.

"Try it, but this fish has a lot of bones, so be careful when eating it." When Gu Nan saw the fish coming up and Shangguan Jinghao was only too surprised, he took the initiative to pick out a piece of fish bone from the tip of his chopsticks for him, put it on a small plate, and pushed it to him.

Shangguan Jinghao recovered from his distraction and followed Gu Nan's example by picking up the chopsticks and trying to pick up the fish. Fortunately, although he was a little clumsy, he still managed to pick it up the third time. He put it in his mouth and took a sip. The tenderness and rich aroma of the meat instantly filled his mouth.

He was conquered by this dish at once. In comparison, the meal replacements he usually used to replenish his energy were like poison. He could hardly swallow the thought of it.

"Eat slowly, no one is competing with you for the food. If it's not enough, I'll ask Lingzhi to add two more dishes.

And eat some staple food, rice with various dishes, it tastes even better." Gu Nan said, and handed him another half bowl of rice.

"Thank you! Lingzhi's dishes are so delicious. I didn't expect that ancient food is so delicious!" Shangguan Jinghao took the rice and said with a mouthful of fish in his mouth.

"Come! The second dish, Dongpo pork, fat but not greasy!" When the fish was half finished, Lingzhi held the square plate and sang loudly.

"Hey! Why did you think of making Dongpo pork?" Gu Nan asked curiously when she saw the Dongpo pork on the table, which was rosy in color and fresh and fragrant. After all, although these children loved braised dishes, sour vinegar and the like at the beginning, they didn't have much preference for Dongpo pork.

"Isn't Xiong Zong coming here? Que Cai asked me to prepare it to please him. But since one is better than two, I will prepare more together. Now you're in time." Lingzhi put the dishes away and talked about what happened this morning with a funny look on her face.

"Okay! Although I prefer braised, Dongpo is also good." Gu Nan was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't even know that Xiong Zong was coming.

"Then you guys try the food. I'll go serve you the dishes." After seeing Gu picking up his chopsticks, Lingzhi greeted him and went straight to the kitchen.

"Taste it!"

"Delicious! How is it made?" Shangguan Jinghao tried to taste it. It was a completely different experience from the fish just now.

"Speaking of Dongpo Pork, there is a very interesting story.

Dongpo Pork originated in Xuzhou, Jiangsu. In 1080, when Su Shi was exiled to Huangzhou, he invented this cooking method because there were plenty of pigs and the meat was cheap.

When Su Shi was the prefect of Hangzhou, he organized workers to dredge the West Lake, build embankments and bridges, and improved the landscape and water conservancy conditions of the West Lake. So, in order to thank him for his contribution, the people of Hangzhou brought pigs and wine to pay New Year's greetings during the Spring Festival. Su Shi then distributed the pork to the workers who participated in the dredging of the West Lake, and this dish got the name "Dongpo Pork".

The cooking method of Dongpo pork is also very particular. It usually uses half-fat and half-lean pork, adds shallots, ginger, rice wine, rock sugar and other seasonings, and simmers it over a slow fire. The finished dish is bright red in color, fat but not greasy, fragrant and delicious, and is deeply loved by people.

This dish is not only popular in the Jiangnan region, but has also gradually spread throughout the country, becoming a classic traditional Han dish belonging to the Zhejiang and Sichuan cuisines. "Gu Nan heard that he not only ate it, but also mentioned the origin, so he became interested and introduced it to him.

"It turns out that this dish has a remarkable origin! This story is very memorable." Shangguan Jinghao swallowed the meat in his mouth and said with great emotion. It turned out that not only the dish was delicious, but the story was also very exciting.

Afterwards, Lingzhi served boiled cabbage, pork ribs stewed with yam, stir-fried wild mushrooms, and loofah and egg soup. She also specially prepared two cups of corn juice, which was Gu Nan's favorite.

This meal elevated Shangguan Jinghao's soul, and even his throbbing headaches gradually eased. He wondered if he could eat this meal every day, the backlash of his mental strength would be cured.

"Ms. Gu, is there anything special about this dish? It seems that my mental strength has slowed down after eating it?" Shangguan Jinghao thought a lot and asked what was in his mind unconsciously.

"This may be a dietary therapy, because each vegetable has its own unique charm, and the substances contained in them, after various cooking methods, will achieve certain therapeutic effects, such as: relieving cough, nourishing yin, nourishing qi, replenishing blood, etc.

There are also negative examples due to improper compatibility, such as hair loss, coughing up blood, premature aging, contraception, etc. "Gu Nan did not practice this interstellar technique, so he did not know the specific situation, and only replied from the perspective of the ingredients themselves.

Shangguan Jinghao listened thoughtfully, it turned out that there was so much knowledge in catering, and then the two of them ate and talked. After they were full, Gu Nan took him to say goodbye to Lingzhi and planned to take him for a walk outside the base.

The two of them got along very happily together. As far as this period of time was concerned, Shangguan Jinghao was extremely satisfied in every aspect. It was a pity that as a soldier he had his own responsibilities.

"Nannan, is my original mecha still there?" Half a month of joy seemed to be stolen. Shangguan Jinghao was having a great time with Gu Nan, but at the same time he was burdened with the mission. Finally, he couldn't overcome the torment in his heart and asked while they were taking a walk.

"Yes, Jinghao is leaving?" Gu Nan also understood the general situation from the information he found out from Quecai, so he asked without trying to keep him.

She thought to herself that this day had come so early. She wondered if this guy had seen through her heart. She could feel his inner struggle. He was such a contradictory person. Did he even like such an awkward person?

"Hmm!" Facing Gu Nan's straightforward gaze, Shangguan Jinghao's words, which he had already organized, were stuck in his throat and he could only reply sadly.

"Okay! You can go, but don't forget that you have a fiancée when you go out.

And remember the way back! As for the mecha Lingyun, it has been remodeled for you. I will take you to try it out. "Gu Nan was prepared in her heart, so when Shangguan Jinghao left, she was sad and upset, but she still replied in an open-minded manner.

"I know, then you must wait for me!" Even though Shangguan Jinghao was very conflicted, he was honest in his heart and he said the first sentence that came to his mind naturally.

"Okay! If you say something wrong, you'd better be careful about your head on your neck." After hearing this, Gu Nan burst out laughing. This guy is so arrogant that he is cute.

"Yes! I will definitely do what I promised!" Shangguan Jinghao took the initiative to hold Gu Nan's hand for the first time and promised while staring into her eyes.
