Chapter 289 - : Unique Taste
Chapter 289: Unique Taste
Seeing the three of them look at him at the same time, Chu Sihan calmly picked up his cup of wine and took a sip.
“I’ve long heard from Master that the State Minister has collected a lot of famous brews. Now, I know that this wine is indeed delicious.”
“Please excuse me, Lord Chu.”
The State Minister picked up his chopsticks and ate the boiled cabbage in front of him expressionlessly.
Seeing him enjoying his meal, Lu Sheng thought that the dish was different from the others.
Hence, she picked up a piece and placed it in her mouth. However, the same taste almost made her throw up on the spot.
However, out of courtesy and respect, she swallowed the food in her mouth with difficulty.
Ye Luo looked at her in admiration.
Seeing Lu Sheng pick up a piece of cabbage, Chu Sihan also took a piece.
However, what was placed in his mouth was even harder to swallow than a raw piece of cabbage.
“State Minister, how are your taste buds?”
After swallowing it, he asked faintly.
“Okay.”
The State Minister replied him faintly and continued to finish the remaining dishes.
Ye Luo poured the remaining wine into his wine gourd. “Senior Brother, I haven’t seen you for so many years. Your culinary skills haven’t changed at all.”
He should at least learn to add some oil and salt.
Lu Sheng was surprised. “These dishes were made by the State Minister?”
“Yes.”
Ye Luo nodded and teased, “Boil a pot of water to cook the whole dish. He doesn’t add anything.”
Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan looked at the State Minister at the same time.
Lu Sheng laughed dryly. “The State Minister has quite a unique taste.”
However, he explained calmly, “It’s not the original taste of vegetables anymore if you add ingredients.”
Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan were speechless.
He had not eaten delicious dishes before, right?
Chu Sihan lifted the wine pot and was about to pour some wine when he managed to lift the pot lightly.
He turned his head and saw Ye Luo stuffing the gourd…
He helplessly placed the wine pot back and asked the State Minister faintly, “When will we set off to the suburbs?”
“Evening.”
The State Minister put down his chopsticks and looked up at the three of them. “I’ve already prepared empty rooms for you. Rest for a while.”
Ye Luo patted the wine gourd on his waist and smiled. “Okay, Senior Brother.”
As long as there was wine in the gourd, he was not too concerned about anything else.
The State Minister glanced at him indifferently and stood up to summon two monks to clean up the mess before leaving the pavilion.
Lu Sheng looked at Chu Sihan. “Lord, where should we go?”
“Follow Master.”
Lu Sheng looked at Ye Luo, who was about to leave, and nodded slightly.
The duo stood up and followed.
————
Lu Sheng thought that the State Minister should be extremely disciplined.
When it was evening, they were woken up by a knocking sound.
The person who knocked was none other than the State Minister himself.
He knocked on Chu Sihan’s door first, then Ye Luo’s.
Lu Sheng was staying in the middle room. She had long been awakened by his first knock.
After sitting on the couch for a while, she slowly climbed down.
She tidied herself up before opening the door and walking out.
Outside the door, Chu Sihan happened to raise his hand. It seemed like he was about to knock.
He paused for a while and smiled faintly. “I was about to knock.”
“Since you’re awake, let’s go.”
Before Lu Sheng could speak, the State Minister’s indifferent voice was heard.
Lu Sheng smiled lightly and said to Chu Sihan, “Let’s go then.”
Chu Sihan nodded slightly and the four of them left the State Minister’s residence again.
After staying in a warm place for a long time, it felt like winter the moment they came out.
Lu Sheng had just shuddered when a large hand held her slender wrist.
She lowered her eyes and smiled. Even without looking, she knew whose hand it belonged to.
