The gods and beasts all love me [Interstellar]

Taotie had a flash of inspiration, and the corners of his lips rose.

He knows what the finals do.

New Year's Eve dinner.

The New Year's Eve dinner has a long history, and it has been passed down from the ancient times of the ancient earth. No matter what era people are, they will celebrate it on the night of the end of the year.And every dish in the New Year's Eve dinner has a profound meaning and history, developed in the long history, and entrusting countless generations of people's expectations for a better life.It is a cultural symbol of ancient China with great meaning.

This is unmatched by other dishes.

Besides, there was no clear question in the finals that they could only cook one dish.

Taotie patted Lin Yu'an's shoulder lightly, and told him his thoughts.

After hearing this, Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then a smile spread in his eyes: "This idea is great... The history of New Year's Eve dinner is very long! It is faster than any other dish, and it is very meaningful. Making this will definitely win you a lot of money." High score. Maybe it can remind the people of the empire of the 'Spring Festival' that disappeared in time!"

His soft black hair fell down with the quiver of laughter, covering the side of his fair face.

"Thank you for your support."

Lin Yu'an couldn't help but said, "Let's prepare quickly, the final will be tomorrow."

He put down the writing brush in his hand, took out his optical brain, opened the website for buying ingredients, paused, and asked, "What do you think is good for New Year's Eve dinner?"

"..." The young man with red eyes was silent for a moment.To be honest, this is the first time he can eat New Year's Eve dinner, and it's also the first time he cooks it.

In the past, he only had the opportunity to watch others eat New Year's Eve dinner.A lone gluttonous cub, pitifully huddled in a snowy corner, was piled into a snowman by the snow, showing a pair of peas, watching others happily eating the New Year's Eve dinner through the window.

Those people... what are they eating?

He remembers it very clearly, even if he loses his memory, he still can't forget these special memories about food.

He is so eager.

He later imitated those people to make "New Year's Eve dinner." The dishes were exactly the same.But that wasn't New Year's Eve dinner at all, he didn't make it at the end of the year, let alone have no one to eat with him.

But it's different now.Now a teenager is discussing with him about the New Year's Eve dinner.

The other party looked at him with clear and gentle eyes.

He held back his smile and said softly: "There are a lot of ingredients to be used, can you let me choose?"

"of course can."

He took the optical brain, spent half an hour picking out a few ingredients, and decided what to do. ——"Five blessings come to the door", "Sanyang Kaitai", "more than every year", "reunion and roundness"... all kinds of things.

These dishes were inherited from ancient times, and the age is unusually long.

The ingredients are ordered, and the delivery time is exactly tomorrow morning, which can be in time for the finals.

Lin Yu'an finished creating his couplet within half an hour. He carefully picked up a corner and said, "Wait for me, I'll post the couplet..."

"Row."

Lin Yu'an excitedly ran to the gate of the manor, but after a while, he returned to the cabin with the couplet in his pocket.

He called He Ningtian who was playing with the cubs.

He found that he seemed a little short and couldn't stick to the top of the pillars at the gate of the manor.

"That..." He asked the man to come to the gate of the manor, looked at the tall pillars, and said a bit embarrassingly: "Can you help me paste the couplets... I can't reach it."

He Ningtian paused slightly, lowered his head, and saw the top of the boy's head.The boy suddenly raised his head and glanced at him.

He Ningtian smiled lightly: "Okay."

He didn't take the couplet, but leaned over and hugged the opponent's waist, and lifted it up.When he was a kitten, Lin Yuan often hugged him like this.

There was a milk-sweet aura in the boy's waist, and he stared at him all the time.

Lin Yu'an was a little surprised, his face turned red instantly, he was at a loss and couldn't speak.It took him a long time to post the couplets.

Facing the warm sunshine, the prosperous couplets are pasted on both sides of the "Shanhai Manor" sign.

——"The spring breeze combs the willows, and the rain moistens the seedlings."

"Shiyu nourishes the seedlings?" The man was a little puzzled.He remembered that the little monster was a spiritual plant monster with a seedling on its head.

Lin Yu'an nodded, clutching the hem of his clothes, a little embarrassed.

He posted this couplet in the hope that he would grow better in the new year.

Come of age.

Then he can protect the world with the beasts, and even protect the beasts and the Shanhai Manor.

Lin Yu'an suddenly remembered the pile of questions he still wanted to ask the man, he hesitated for a while, and wanted to ask how the man knew so much about the prehistoric era.

He was about to speak when He Ningtian's hand suddenly patted his head, which happened to be where Xiao Miaomiao hid.The man's magnetic voice rang in his ears: "Grow up in the new year, and try to put up a couplet next year by raising your hand."

Lin Yu'an: "..."

==

Soon, it was the day of the finals.

The seller of the ingredients was very nice, so he asked someone to help deliver the ingredients to the final venue, and presented a big piece of glutinous rice dumpling.

The final will be broadcast live for the entire empire to watch.There were only two people participating in the competition, Taotie and the patriarch of the gourmet family.They cook in different kitchens.

The patriarch also didn't just cook one dish, he planned to cook the Qing court banquet food.Taotie kept silent about the dishes he cooked.

The finals have begun.

The number of people watching the live broadcast reached tens of billions, and almost everyone in the empire came to watch it.

This time the finals were mainly based on ancient earth cuisine. Most people in the empire had never been exposed to ancient earth cuisine, and they all felt novelty.

The kitchen used for the finals was very large, and the table for the ingredients was filled with Chinese cabbage, pork belly, lobster, crucian carp...

Taotie decided to start with "surplus every year."

Spread the processed big crucian carp with various ingredients such as eggs, cornstarch, add some cooking wine, put it in the pan and fry it for a while, sprinkle with chopped green onion, ginger... Add the broth, cover the pot and cook for a while.

After taking it out of the pot, drizzle it with dark soy sauce to modify the color, put it on a plate, and a tempting red crucian carp is ready.Fish, meaning more than every year.

Next is "Sanyang Kaitai." The three suns symbolize vitality, imply praise for the beginning of the year or auspiciousness[1].

Wash the pork belly first, slice it, then clean the squid, pork leg, and chicken leg to clean the hair and blood, and cut into pieces for later use.

Cut various ingredients such as shiitake mushrooms and bamboo shoots into small pieces, and mix with chopped green onion and soy sauce.Then put the meat and condiments into the pot and cook for a while, then put the ingredients into a low heat and simmer for half an hour.

But after a while, a plate of "Sanyang Kaitai" that is tempting for the index finger is ready.

Taotie's cooking speed is so fast that the naked eyes of the masses can't follow it at all.Half an hour before the deadline for the finals, Taotie had already brought the last dish to the review table.

He looked back at the kitchen and found that there was still one ingredient that was not used.

The glutinous rice balls presented by the seller.

He thought about it,... how about making rice cakes?

Carve a rice cake in the shape of a Nian beast.

As a little cub, when he was often wandering outside, his only friend was Nian Beast.

But you can only see it during the Chinese New Year.These things happened many years ago, and now there is no "Spring Festival" festival in the empire, and the Nian beast naturally disappeared.

Taotie was inexplicably nostalgic.

He raised the small carving knife used for cooking, recalling the appearance of the Nian beast in his mind, and carefully carved on the glutinous rice balls.

Like a big yellow dog with tentacles on its head...

The Nian Beast engraved by Taotie is a bit out of shape, crooked, but people with a discerning eye can still tell that it is a Nian Beast.

He cooked the glutinous rice balls, and a low-quality rice cake was ready.

Nian beast-shaped rice cakes are served in the center of all dishes.The little Nian beast lay on its stomach, looking at the New Year's Eve dinner it had longed for for many years.

There are nine dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Each one has a different meaning, and the age is even more ancient.Perfectly fit the theme of this final.

The taro is dotted with braised meat in red sauce, and the sauce covers the meat in sauce.

Sixi meatballs lay neatly on the Chinese cabbage leaves, and the plump meat inside almost overflowed.

Glutinous rice wrapped with Chinese sausage, lean meat, peas, green onions, and glutinous rice grains are distinct.

The stewed chicken soup with yam shimmers seductively under the light.

……

The New Year's Eve dinner is ready.

It's just the people who come to eat the New Year's Eve dinner.

At that time, the evaluation method will not only be inspected by two examiners.There will also be people from the empire who are watching the live broadcast, and this New Year’s Eve dinner will appear in front of them in the form of a holographic model. The taste and touch will be exactly the same as the real one...

Contestants can also invite friends or family members to come and taste on-site.

In other words, this New Year's Eve dinner will be very lively.

It was more lively and happy than any New Year's Eve dinner that Taotie had ever seen before.

After all, it was the New Year's Eve dinner that everyone in the empire ate with him.

The little glutton who used to be starving, hungry, let the snow fall on him, and hid behind the window to watch others eat the New Year's Eve dinner was gone.

The first person to announce the dishes is the patriarch of the big family.

The staff projected the banquet he made in front of the audience.

"This is the birthday banquet of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, one of the big banquets in the inner court[1]."

"There are beauties offering tea, jade palms offering birthdays, white phoenix stewed with ginseng, and round fish with golden legs...etc."

These dishes, which are very ancient to the imperial people, are now vividly presented before their eyes.

The young patriarch introduced the dishes he made to everyone one by one. He was very confident, with his arms folded and his chest puffed out.Believe that you can win the championship.

After his introduction, we arrived at Taotie.

Expectations are high for this fledgling rookie.In just a few days after I came to the website, I actually won the final spot of the food competition, and I was able to compare with one of the best chefs in the empire.

The young man with red eyes changed his clothes and stood in front of the live broadcast equipment facing the whole empire.

This is also the first time everyone has seen the real body of this gourmet anchor.

He is tall and handsome, with a pair of rare red eyes. Logically speaking, people with red eyes are very cold and alienated, full of hostility...

But his eyes are filled with a gentle smile, reminiscent of the soft snow under the winter sun.

The New Year's Eve dinner he made was also presented to everyone one by one.

Everyone had never seen these dishes, and chattered about them, wondering what Taotie wanted to do.

He cleared his throat and said, "The name of this meal is 'New Year's Eve Dinner'.

The New Year's Eve dinner has a long history, and I can't tell how many years it has been. As long as human beings can remember, there has been a habit of cooking and celebrating at the beginning of the new year.This habit disappeared during the long interstellar migration.

"New Year's Eve dinner" is the most important symbol of Chinese food in the ancient earth, and it is of great significance. Every dish entrusts people's expectations for happiness.

Presumably none of you remember that there is another important festival called 'Spring Festival'.Eat 'New Year's Eve' dinner before the Spring Festival. '

Today happens to be New Year's Eve.

I want to say one thing to you - happy new year. "

Let's have New Year's Eve dinner together.
