Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!
Chapter 210: Do You Actually Like That Shi Jiumei?
"Alright, then I’ll have a chicken skin skewer." the customer said, tossing his food coupon into the box.
He took the chicken skin skewer and bit into it.
The chicken skin was grilled to a charred brown, both soft and collagen-rich, with a thick and tender bite. The edges were slightly crisp from grilling.
Among the aroma of charcoal, there was a hint of a tangy sweet smell.
"What is this fragrance? It’s so refreshing! It’s not lemon." the customer remarked.
The previous customer was watching from the side, salivating and wishing he could taste it too.
Now, he wasn’t even considering stepping down, constantly gulping and urgently asking, "Is it delicious? Is it delicious?"
"Delicious!" The customer nodded emphatically, "The edges are crispy, the middle is tender, but because of the scent of charcoal grilling and this tangy sweet aroma, even knowing it’s chicken skin, it doesn’t feel greasy at all. I could eat 10 more skewers!"
The man swallowed hard, "I wonder what’s inside the Hangzhou pepper?"
"Is there stuffing inside?" someone else asked.
"Yes." Ye Fei nodded, "Hangzhou pepper isn’t very spicy. I removed the seeds and veins, leaving only a little heat. As for the stuffing inside, I’ll keep that a secret for now."
"Then I’ll have one skewer."
"Me too!"
"I’ll take a chicken thigh skewer."
"I want cartilage."
The crowd gradually grew larger.
The previous customers had run out of food coupons, making them useless here.
Just smelling the aroma and watching others enjoy is even more unbearable.
They simply headed back to their seats early, waiting to grab more tickets.
"My Xiao Fei is the best!" Xiao Mo proudly raised his head and puffed out his chest.
The elderly lady also nodded happily, reminding Zhao Gushen, "Hurry and grab some, if we can’t get any, I won’t be able to have Xiao Fei’s skewers."
"Grandma, even if we don’t get them, if you want to eat, Xiao Fei can still whip some up for you." Zhao Gushen said with a smile, "Not just these few, there are others, things that no one else has tried, you can have those too."
"That’s different, I want to support Xiao Fei." The elderly lady pouted, "Look at those on the stage, especially that Shi... Shi what’s her name?"
"Shi Jiumei." Chi Jingsi reminded nearby.
The elderly lady looked at her immediately, "How do you remember so clearly? Do you have a fondness for that Shi Jiumei?"
"..." Chi Jingsi felt she was terribly wronged, "Not at all! I actually dislike her, that’s why I remember her name more."
"You’re right." The elderly lady nodded, "She dared to bully Xiao Fei, I’ve remembered her!"
The elderly lady turned to Zhao Gushen again, "Look at Shi Jiumei, causing trouble for Xiao Fei many times. She has no skills, only relying on trickery. Such a person can’t last long."
"Exactly, without talent, it’s useless no matter what." Zhao Gushen nodded.
At this moment, the crowd began returning as the audience tasting the food.
Some who hadn’t tasted Ye Fei’s skewers saw the lively scene over there and asked, "Is it really that good?"
"Really, what did you eat?"
"I ate the fried chicken leg, you know, the anime version, made by Shi Jiumei."
The person laughed, "Did you go because you found her pretty?"
"Not that, I just saw the chicken leg was quite big; with one ticket, you get such a large piece, it seemed worth it."
"Was it tasty? That chicken leg looked greasy."
"To be honest, it was pretty average. The bacon outside was too salty, the chicken leg inside was bland, and the egg in the middle was dry." The person shook his head, "If I had known, I wouldn’t have eaten it. Now I’m feeling heavy, just want something refreshing to cleanse my palate."
