Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 180
"Niuwa, you are such a good cook, why don't you just cook for this general in the future?" Zhang Xun said while eating the meal prepared by Niuwa.Zhang Xun's usual meals are also made by people in the Huotou army, but the taste is not as good as Niuwa's craftsmanship.

Niu Wa was thinking about how to enter the kitchen again and put the croton powder into the army's food, when Zhang Xun said this, Niu Wa's eyes lit up.This is simply the legendary idea of ​​someone giving you a pillow when you feel sleepy.

"The general has needs, and the villain will naturally obey the general's orders." Given the rare opportunity, Niu Wa knelt down and replied to Zhang Xun.

"Brother Niu Wa will cook for the general in the future, and his subordinates will be able to enjoy the food with the general." After Li Du heard what Zhang Xun said to Niu Wa, he stopped his chopsticks and waited for Niu Wa's answer.Although Li Du guessed that Niu Wa would not refuse Zhang Xun's small request, he was still very excited when he heard Niu Wa answering with his own ears.

Seeing how happy Zhang Xun and Li Du were, Niu Wa also had a silly smile on her face, but she was sneering in her heart: If you laugh now, you will cry sometimes.

When everyone started to rest at night, Hai Ye appeared in Niu Wa's tent.

"Niuboy, I will go to Yangzhai City to deliver the news later, everything here is up to you." Saying this, Master Hai took out an oiled paper bag from his body, only to see that the things inside it weighed half a catty Heavy.

Niuwa held the oiled paper bag, and the corner of his mouth twitched unconsciously, but he still said, "Don't worry, Lord Hai, I will definitely put this thing in the army's lunch tomorrow morning." He said so, but looked at Niuwa groaned in his heart for this thing, how to get such a big goal?

Master Hai patted Niu Wa on the shoulder, and said, "My brother is right, I know you have a way. To be honest, my brother took this bag of croton powder and thought about it for more than a day, but he didn't find the right time to send it to you." Put these croton powders into the army's rations." After speaking, Master Hai went out from behind Niu Wa's tent.

Niu Wa sat alone in the tent, looking at the croton powder in his hand, he only had one chance.Tomorrow, at [-]:[-] Yinshi, we will start preparing the army's breakfast. If there is no chance to put these croton powder into the army's meal at this time, it will be useless to put ten times as much croton powder in the future.

Looking at the bag of croton powder in his hand, Niu Wa couldn't help but sigh, this task is too difficult.Under the eyes of many fire-headed troops, it is simply impossible to put this bag of croton powder into the army's meal.

After thinking about it, Niuwa actually fell asleep.When Yinshi arrived, Li Du came to Niuwa's tent.Seeing that Niuwa was still sleeping, Li Du also thought of playing tricks, so he walked to Niuwa's side and pinched Niuwa's nose.

Niuwa felt a little uncomfortable when Li Du pinched his nose, but subconsciously patted it several times with his hands, but it didn't work, so he opened his eyes in a daze.When he saw that it was Li Du, Niu Wa instantly remembered that his bag of croton powder hadn't been put away yet, and his body broke out in a cold sweat.

Li Du looked at Niu Wa, and immediately asked, "What's the matter? You're sweating all over, are you sick?" Li Du didn't think about anything else, he just thought that Niu Wa caught a cold because he slept without a quilt.

"It's okay." Seeing that Li Du didn't ask him about the bag of croton powder, Niuwa knew that Li Du didn't find out, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.But when Niuwa turned around to stand up, the bag of croton powder fell out.

Li Du looked at the croton powder mixed from Niu Wa, and really wanted to lower his head to pick it up, but Niu Wa picked up the bag of croton powder before Li Du did.Li Du hung his hands in the air, slowly raised his head, and said to Niu Wa with a cold face: "You are a spy sent by the imperial court, aren't you?"

When Niu Wa heard what Li Du said at this time, cold sweat broke out all over his body.Niu Wa's martial arts are not as good as Li Du's, and now he can't escape or hide.Just when Niuwa's face turned normal and he was about to admit it, Li Du spoke again.

"Haha! It's really not funny. My brother heard from others that the general family cooking skills are always your own secret recipes and will not be seen by others. Presumably this is your family's secret recipe? Brother, don't you look at the head office? , look at your face." As he spoke, Li Du did not forget to despise Niu Wa.

Seeing that Li Du had misunderstood, Niu Wa secretly cried out in her heart that she was glad, but Niu Wa was an old hand at deceiving people after all, so naturally she wouldn't immediately turn into a smiling face like in the novel, so it would be no wonder that others wouldn't see it through.Niu Wa turned his face coldly, looked at Li Du cautiously, and said, "The secret recipe has been handed down from the family, forgive me for not giving it to outsiders for inspection without the consent of the elders in the family."

"Okay, okay, brother, just don't look at it. The general said that he was going to cook at [-] o'clock, and brother was afraid that you would miss the time if you couldn't get up." Li Du looked at Niu Wa, and then began to talk about business.

Niu Wa was only focused on talking to Li Du just now, but forgot about it. At this time, when Li Du reminded her, she immediately remembered the business.For a while, Niuwa was in a hurry, and almost scattered the bag of croton powder on the ground. Fortunately, Li Du caught the bag of croton powder with quick eyesight and quick hands.

"Thank you, Brother Li Du." Niu Wa took the package of "family secret recipe" and hurried towards the kitchen.It's just that Niu Wa thought in his mind: Since Li Du likes this "family secret recipe" so much, he must cook some extra food for Li Du later.

After Niu Wa arrived at the kitchen, he found that all the people had arrived. Also, did these people have a chef as famous as Niu Wa? How dare they delay the hour.If the soldiers didn't have breakfast when the siege started, then these fire-headed troops would have committed a great crime.

Niuwa didn't come, and no one dared to speak of him, but now when Niuwa came, someone said to him: "My lord, I need to fetch a bucket of water, and my lord will take a look at the pot of meat for me." Too busy, the man had to muster up the courage to say that to Niu Wa.

Niu Wa saw that there were too many people in this room, and even before the pot of meat, he probably had no chance to pour the croton flour into it, so he replied to the man, "You should just watch here, and I'll go fetch water. "Speaking, Niuwa didn't give that person a chance, just picked up the wooden bucket pole at the door and went to fetch water.

Not long after, Niu Wa came back with two buckets of water. Of course, it was water with added ingredients.Niu Wa placed the load of water in front of the man who had asked him to help. The man thanked him quickly and poured the water into the pot of meat.When the pot of meat was almost cooked, the man picked up the meat and planned to pour out the water in the pot.

When Niu Wa saw it, he quickly stopped him: "Don't fall!"

"My lord, what's the matter?" The man was very puzzled, if the water that lost the meat was not poured out, would it still be used as soup?
At this time, Niu Wa naturally couldn't believe that the water had been added with ingredients, so she could only say something temporary: "The water used to cook the meat is very nutritious, so naturally it can't be wasted like this. Add a little more for other dishes. Such a soup will enhance the taste of the dish.”

The people in the kitchen thought about it, what Niu Wa said made sense.Sure enough, that's why Niuwa can cook for General Zhang while they are ordinary Huotou troops.Thinking about it this way, everyone added those broths to various other dishes or used them to knead noodles.

Looking at this situation, Niuwa was also very relieved, the croton powder was finally not wasted at all.
