300 Buddha Jumps Over The Wall

Yu Niaoniao was in a mess. Instead of returning to the lounge, she went straight to the kitchen.

Pan Dafu was surprised to see her here so early. “Teacher, it’s still early for lunch. Why are you here?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “It’s fine. Go ahead. I’m just walking around.”

She had a habit of cooking good food when she was in a bad mood.

Yu Niaoniao went to the storeroom to retrieve some ingredients and prepared to make Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup.

This dish was very complicated to make. Not only did it require many precious ingredients, but it also consumed a lot of time and energy.

To the current Yu Niaoniao, what she had most was time and energy.

She first removed the sand and fishy smell from the shark fins before steaming it in the Shao wine in the pot. She picked up the fatty meat, washed away the soup, and placed it aside for backup.

Seeing that she was about to cook, Pan Dafu quickly came over and asked solicitously.

“Is there anything I can do?”

Yu Niaoniao said casually, “Help me kill a chicken and duck and wash the pig trotters and lamb knuckles.”

“Alright!”

Yu Niaoniao did not stop moving.

She waved the kitchen knife and cut the fish jaw into pieces. She added wine and green onions and boiled them in the water to remove the fishy smell. Then, she fished them out.

The Gold Coin Abalone was steamed in the pot. She cut a cross-shape on each of them with a knife and placed them in a small basin. She added bone soup and Shao wine and steamed it for an hour. Then, she steamed a few quail eggs and peeled the shells for backup.

Pan Dafu brought over the washed chicken and duck, then went to cook the pork trotters and lamb knuckles.

Yu Niaoniao took the chicken and duck and placed them on the chopping board. She picked up the knife specially used to chop bones and chopped off his head, neck, and feet.

She did not throw these things away. Instead, she packed them in a basin and prepared to braise them later.

At this moment, the pig trotters and lamb knuckles were also cleaned by Pan Dafu.

Yu Niaoniao put the pork trotter, lamb knuckles, and duck into the pot together. She used boiling water to wash them several times to remove the blood and the gamey smell. Then, she put them into the pot and boiled them with soup and wine. She scooped them out for backup.

Next, she had to cook sea cucumbers, pork trotters, ham, winter bamboo shoots, fish belly, and other ingredients.

By the time she was done with all the ingredients, the morning had passed.

Pan Dafu followed behind her the entire time and helped her.

He was especially curious. What kind of dish needed so many ingredients?

When all the ingredients were ready, Yu Niaoniao heated the iron pot, poured oil, added onions, ginger, and stir-fried the items to make them fragrant. Then, she poured all the chicken, duck, lamb’s knuckles, pig trotters, flower mushrooms, and winter bamboo shoots. She added seasoning and covered the pot to stew for an hour.

Before she lifted the pot, she picked out the cinnamon and star anise and poured the rest of the ingredients into the basin. She left the soup in the pot for backup.

Yu Niaoniao then went to the cellar to choose a relatively good-looking wine jar.

She poured stew into the wine jar and placed it on the small stove to heat it up.

Then, she poured out the liquid and placed a small bamboo basket into the wine jar. She placed the ingredients that she had prepared earlier into the jar one by one and poured the soup into it. She used the lotus leaves to seal the mouth of the wine jar and then covered it with a bowl to completely seal the mouth of the wine jar.

After doing this, Yu Niaoniao picked up the wine jar and carefully placed it on the small stove.

It was already noon.

Seeing that she was still circling the stove, Pan Dafu could not help but persuade her.

“Eat first. You can work after lunch.”

Yu Niaoniao replied without looking up, “Yes, I’ll eat here today.”

Usually, Pan Dafu, his disciples, and the kitchen helpers ate in the kitchen.

There was no special table in the kitchen. They all set out the food on the stove. The group gathered around the stove to eat, which meant they had no chairs and had to eat standing up.

Pan Dafu felt that this was too unfair to Yu Niaoniao. He got someone to move a small table over and placed the food that belonged to Yu Niaoniao on it.

He pointed at the recliner and said enthusiastically, “Teacher, sit here and eat.”

Yu Niaoniao looked at the firewood on the small stove. After confirming that the fire was just right, she left in relief.

She sat on the recliner, picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and started eating.

Pan Dafu looked at her expectantly.

“I made all these dishes. Teacher, what do you think?”

Yu Niaoniao said without hesitation, “Not bad. They’re all delicious. Your cooking has improved again.”

Pan Dafu was overjoyed.

“As long as you like it. If it’s not enough, I’ll cook a few more dishes for you.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “No need. This is enough.”

Seeing that Pan Dafu was still standing at the side, she could not help but ask.

“Why don’t you eat?”

Pan Dafu: “Eat first, I’ll wait on you.”

It was the same between master and disciple in modern days. When the master ate, the disciple had to stand at the side and wait on him, helping to serve tea, water, and vegetables.

Yu Niaoniao expressed that there was no need.

“Go ahead and eat. I don’t need you to serve me here.”

Seeing that she didn’t want him to serve her, Pan Dafu was quite disappointed.

He turned around and walked to the stove.

His disciples and kitchen helpers had been waiting for a long time, but Pan Dafu had not eaten. They did not dare to touch their chopsticks.

Only after Pan Dafu took his first bite did everyone dare to pick up their bowls and chopsticks to eat.

While Yu Niaoniao was eating happily, the atmosphere in the dining hall outside was not good.

Today, Wei Liao had brought the Sky Wolf Guards to help the Eagle Guards with the case, but they had yet to leave. Not only that, but the Sky Wolf Guards had also followed the Eagle Guards to the dining hall. It seemed that they were planning to stay for lunch.

The Eagle Guards and the Sky Wolf Guards were not on good terms, to begin with. Now that they were together, they naturally did not like each other.

Everyone’s faces darkened and they did not say anything. The air was filled with animosity.

Wei Liao ignored Xiao Juan’s cold face and sat opposite him with a smile.

“The food in the Justice Department is not bad. The food here is comparable to the restaurants in the Jade Capital.”

Xiao Juan said expressionlessly, “I didn’t ask you to sit here.”

Wei Liao said, “This seat is empty. What’s wrong with letting me sit for a while? The dignified Prince Lang can’t be so petty, right?”

Xiao Juan said, “I’ve always been very petty.”

Wei Liao didn’t expect him to say that and was obviously stunned.

Seeing that he was sitting still, Xiao Juan stood up.

Wei Liao thought that he was going to make a move, so he couldn’t help but feel excited.

He had long heard that Duke Lang was skilled. He had always wanted to spar with the other party and see who was stronger between the two.

Just as Wei Liao was rubbing his fists and preparing to test his skills, he saw Xiao Juan walk past him without hesitation.

Xiao Juan walked further and further away, not even looking at Wei Liao.

Wei Liao asked.

“Where are you going? Do you still want to eat your food? If you don’t, I’ll eat it for you!”

Xiao Juan ignored him.

Anyway, those dishes were not made by Niaoniao. He did not want to eat them in the first place.

He knew that Niaoniao had come to the dining hall and thought that she would eat with him as usual. However, he did not see her in the dining hall.

He guessed that she was still busy in the kitchen, so he went straight to the kitchen to look for her.

Everyone in the kitchen was eating happily when they suddenly saw Duke Lang appear. They were all shocked and almost dropped the chopsticks in their hands.

“Greetings, Your Highness!”

Yu Niaoniao looked up and her heart skipped a beat when she saw Xiao Juan.

Why was he here? Could it be because of what happened in the interrogation room just now?
