Chapter 122: Eating Green Peppers and Potatoes for a Month

…She knew that there couldn’t be someone in this world who truly thought her master’s cooking was delicious and whose taste was different from that of ordinary people!!!
But the key point is, why did the junior brother have nothing better to do and instigate the old master to cook and ruin the whole place?

Na Kun Dao stared blankly, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Lu Shinian again.

Seeing this, the latter grinned at her very casually, and his row of white teeth reflected on her eyebrows.

——Lu Shinian’s original intention was to act like a spoiled child and beg his senior sister not to expose his evil little plan.

——However, what his senior sister received was that his junior brother was baring his teeth at her and threatening her that if she dared to reveal his thoughts, hmm~~~
Then he would cut off their entire bushi!
…Damn it, even though Junior Brother Jiazi didn’t have any fangs in his mouth, she always felt that his teeth were so sharp! He looked like a demon or monster that would eat children! !

And the fact that he urged the master to cook was really not something that a human would do...

Kun Dao lowered her eyes, with a hint of struggle flashing in her eyes uncontrollably, but she thought of the amazing financial resources of her junior brother Jiazi, and the fact that since he went up the mountain (and was able to continue paying tuition fees to the master), the master's attitude towards them, these useless disciples, was indeed much kinder than before... In the end, she couldn't help herself and was defeated on the spot.

——The first rule of survival in Yaoshan Temple (bushi) is not to mess with the temple's meal tickets at will.

Especially a stable partner like Junior Brother Jiazi who can provide long-term energy.

"...It's okay." So Kun Dao decisively swallowed back the few words he had just said, and smiled at Xu Yichi with the corners of his lips curved, "Master Xu, you didn't hear anything just now - maybe I misheard it before, ahaha, I misheard it."

"...Huh?" Xu Yichi was confused and tilted his head, revealing the classic demented cow cat expression.

Forgive her for not being able to figure out with her brain that runs at the speed of a single-core processor - this Taoist priest just said that someone spread rumors that she praised Taoist priest Chen's cooking! How come she turned around and vomited after eating, saying that she had heard it wrong?
"It's just... cough, I heard it wrong and misunderstood." Kun Dao coughed and pinched his sleeves, and turned his eyes away guiltily, "Well, what are you talking about? It should be just polite words. What Junior Brother said at that time was probably just polite words."

"——It's just polite talk, you know, polite talk to make Master happy." The woman pursed her lips and smiled stiffly, "After all, Master is already in his eighties... We are embarrassed to directly say that his cooking is not delicious."

"So, ahem, I said a few more polite words to cheer him up... But I didn't expect that Master would actually take those words seriously... Ahem, it's not a big deal, it's not a big deal."

"Master Xu, please quickly select two home-cooked dishes and report them to me, so that I can return to report to Master right away!"

Kun Dao smiled and forced a change of subject. Xu Yichi was dizzy from her series of "polite words" and was actually fooled into forgetting for a moment that someone had "slandered" her, and began to think seriously about the recipe.

"Okay, then, Taoist priest, what do you think...which dish would be more suitable for me?" The little girl scratched her head with her hand, and then stared at the woman in front of her with expectant eyes.

"Or...Does Master Chen have any special dishes that he is good at cooking?"

The latter was stunned by the response, and then he couldn't help but fall into a long period of deep thought. Xu Yichi saw the female Taoist priest in a dark blue robe holding a pen and paper and pondering for a long time. After a long time, she slowly and hesitantly said: "Master Xu, if you ask Master what his best dish is... I'm stuck in my head and I really can't remember what he cooks for a while."

"But, it still comes down to the same thing - if you don't want to see too many fancy things in your dishes, then it's best to give priority to simple and easy to make home-cooked dishes that don't require much innovation!"

"Also...last month, Master harvested a batch of green peppers from the village at the foot of the mountain and hasn't eaten them all. This month, he saw that the crisp pears and potatoes grown in the neighboring village were unsalable, so he spent a lot of money to harvest a large batch of crisp pears and potatoes."

"So, if you don't want to see green peppers, potatoes and crispy pears in some dishes, which shouldn't be there...it's best to order some of these things when you order, otherwise..."

Kun Dao frowned and shuddered as he recalled something. He lowered his voice mysteriously to Xu Yichi, "To be honest, the people in our temple have been eating green peppers and potatoes for almost a month--"

"Green pepper and potato slices, green pepper and potato shreds, green pepper and potato mash, and dumplings filled with green peppers and potatoes. After the meal, the master forced everyone to have two pears... My God, no matter how delicious this is, it's hard to eat like this!"

"Especially the cooking skills of the master. They are really good one day and bad the next. No one can predict which dish will fail one day!"

"Okay, I have told you everything that needs to be said. It is up to you to decide how to order the dishes--" Kun Dao shook his head, with a look of vicissitudes in his eyes, and drew out the last syllable of his words.

"Another thing, Master Xu, in the final analysis, it is just us, the younger generation, who are accompanying the two elders... the elders and ancestors, to have some fun for a while, and to make do with a few more bites of food at the dinner table, so that everyone is satisfied and happy to satisfy their craving for cooking. Then our mission will be successfully completed!"

"As for the problem of the food not being to your liking... we really can't do that. After we leave the table, I'll go back and ask my junior brother to take you out to find some delicious midnight snacks."

"——We don't really understand what you kids like to eat nowadays, but he's young and usually helps Master run errands everywhere, so he can definitely help you find delicious food!"

"Hiss~ Taoist priest, I think what you said makes a lot of sense." After listening to Kun Dao's long string of "heartfelt words", Xu Yichi nodded in agreement, and decisively chose to follow the woman's advice, racking his brains to come up with seven or eight home-cooked dishes that could not be simpler.

Kun Dao felt relieved after completing the task. He immediately took the carefully selected menu and rushed to report to his master. On the other side, Lu Shinian saw his senior sister leave, then he picked up the claw hammer and slowly moved forward.

"Mr. Xu, I have helped you open your box." The young man in Taoist robe pretended to be serious and bowed slightly to Xu Yichi.

"If you have nothing else to do, I will go back first."

"Eh? So fast." Xu Yichi was slightly startled when she heard the voice, and then hurriedly turned back to look at the wooden box that she had been unable to open just now.

By then, the top and bottom covers of the box had been completely removed, and the various parts inside the box - motion capture cameras, sensors, brackets, etc. - had also been neatly stacked beside the box.
