Chapter Seventy-Five: The Story of the Stewed Beef in a Seal

    

these old monsters from Slytherin Academy, one really has to be careful. 。Senior, you are truly amazing. 。But, I cannot betray my master just because of your strength. 。"If I could betray my teacher..."Sounds good!" Tang Wulin smiled, he was hungry.

Mutton pot roast is a delicacy cooked in a brown-yellow earthenware pot. The beef is washed clean and simmered with onion and ginger slices. The clay pot effectively locks in the moisture and flavor of the beef. After the beef changes color, ten or so spices are added and simmered for a long time until the beef is completely tender. By then, the spice flavors have perfectly blended with the beef. It is a famous dish in Donghai City.

The shop was not large, with the stove outside. There were nearly a hundred burners on top, and earthenware pots for braised beef were placed above them. The steam from the pots carried the aroma of beef, which wasn't contained by the lids, but instead wafted out, enticing passersby.

There were only five small rectangular tables in the shop, which could accommodate about twenty people at most. At this time, half of them were already occupied.

Now that it's deep autumn, the temperature outside is not high. As soon as you enter the store, you are greeted by the warmth and aroma of beef, which instantly makes you feel comfortable all over.

Gu Yue looked at Xie Xian with some surprise, "I didn't expect that a young master from a wealthy family would eat at a street stall!"

Xie Xie didn't argue with her this time, "Mom used to love the braised beef from this place. I come here every once in a while." With that, he walked inside and sat down at a table in the back.

Tang Wulin bumped into Gu Yue lightly, then followed him in, sitting down opposite Xie Xie.

"Well, here comes Xie Xian, and with a friend too. Same old spot" The boss was a middle-aged man with an apron stained with oil, his face creased in a welcoming smile.

"Well, thank you, Uncle Li," Xie Xihe smiled faintly.

Soon, three servings of stewed beef cans, three bowls of white rice, and two dishes of vegetables were served.

"This is your first time bringing a friend, isn't it Here's some food for you two." Uncle Li smiled and patted Xie Xihe's head, just like he would his own nephew.

Tang Wulin stared in surprise at Xie Xie. Xie Xie was a clean freak, his bed always the cleanest in the dormitory, but now, facing this touch from the street vendor boss, he not only didn't dodge, but instead smiled, "Thank you, Uncle Li."

Whether it was Tang Wulin or Gu Yue, they were both somewhat surprised by this state of Xie Xie. His image had been quite subversive.

Xie Xie said, "What are you waiting for Eat quickly." As he spoke, he lifted the lid of the clay pot in front of him. A rich aroma of beef filled the air instantly, and the broth was a dark gold color, with chunks of beef visible within. Xie Xie gently touched the beef with his chopsticks, and it immediately softened to mush.

He carefully picked out a piece and placed it on his rice, then ate it with the rice. His face was full of enjoyment.

Tang Wulin couldn't hold back any longer and started eating, imitating Xie Xie's manner.

"So delicious," he exclaimed, it really was too good to be true. The rich aroma of the beef, with its savory broth, and the salty flavor perfectly balanced by the white rice, was flawless.

Gu Yue took a bite and couldn't help but be moved.

It's just such a store, with dim lighting and worn-out tables and chairs, yet it boasts surprisingly delicious food. The beef, the thick soup, the vegetables, and the white rice, all warm you up from the inside out.

The three, who had trained together for three months, now had a noticeably more harmonious atmosphere than they did at the academy.

"Uncle Li, another ten portions please." Xie Xi greeted Uncle Li, because he really knew how much someone like Rao ate.

Tang Wulin scratched his head a little awkwardly, "Thank you."

"What are you doing" Xie Xian looked up at him.

Tang Wulin said helplessly, "Your name is really not good. Mine is the one that says thank you."

Xie Xian suddenly smiled bitterly, his eyes slightly red. "My name was given to me by my mother. My mother told me that she named me this because of that chance encounter. She, she was happiest in her life when she met Dad at that time. But..." At this point, his face suddenly became pale, and his hand holding the chopsticks tightened noticeably.

"Your mother..." Tang Wulin asked hesitantly. Although he could see that Xie Xi's family was wealthy, this was the first time he had heard Xie Xi mention anything about his home.

Xie Xi pursed her lips, "My father was always busy. Even when my mother was seriously ill, he was running around outside. Before my mother passed away, her last wish was to see him once, but he still came back late. I can never forget that night. My mother shed tears, her eyes full of regret as she loosened her grip on my hand. I hate him, I hate him! I also hate my own name. If it wasn't for that encounter, maybe my mother wouldn't have..."

Here, he suddenly slammed his face down on the table.

Here, he seemed to shed all the facades he had built with aloofness. This was also the first time he opened up his heart to others.

At that moment, Uncle Li brought over a new jar of stewed beef. As he placed it on the table and let out a sigh, he said, "This child is truly pitiful. His mother used to love bringing him here with her. After his mother passed away, he came alone. Every time he comes, he remembers his mother, so please don't blame him! It's rare for him to bring friends along, I'm so happy for him. He's young but carries a lot of worries on his shoulders, you guys should help him out, oh dear me, what a tragedy!"

Tang Wulin lightly patted Xie Xie's back. Gu Yue sat there, somewhat dazed, watching Xie Xie cry, her eyes gradually showing something more.

"Hey, don't cry. I take back what I said earlier, treat me to dinner today." Gu Yue kicked Xie Xie in front of her with her foot.

Xie Xian raised his head and wiped the tears from his eyes with his sleeve, “I smell of copper!”

Gu Yue curled her lips, “The brat still holds a grudge.”

Xie Xie roared, "You are the same age as me, and even older than me! I'm a little rascal, what are you A little rascal girl"

Gu Yue opened a newly arrived earthenware jar and ate contentedly, saying as she did so, "Don't argue with those who are crying. Mmm, it's delicious."

When the three left the dim sum beef brisket shop, Li Shu watched their backs and couldn't help but sigh, "These kids nowadays are real foodies!"

A meal of braised beef not only brought satisfaction and warmth to Tang Wulin, the three companions, but also subtly shortened the distance between them.

Then there's the salt-grilled prawns. Fresh prawns threaded onto skewers and grilled over charcoal, sprinkled with salt—it couldn't be simpler, but it bursts with the fresh, briny flavors of the sea.

Tang Wulin fully displayed the demeanor of the God of Food. The three of them ate from one end of the food street to the other, filled with laughter and joy.

"We ate too much," Gu Yue said, supporting Tang Wulin's shoulders, while Xie Xie was on the other side, also supporting his shoulders.

Tang Wulin laughed and said, "If you don't have the stomach for it, don't try to learn from a culinary god."

Xie Xie rolled his eyes, "What food god, you're just a glutton. I thought so the first time I saw you eat."

Tang Wulin snorted coldly, "Come on, let's keep eating. Anyway, you're treating."

Xie Xie was astonished and said, "Can you still eat" This fellow had eaten a mountain of food along the way, probably the equivalent of a whole cow!

"That's right!"

"Hey! What's going on over there" Gu Yue suddenly said.

Tang Wulin and Xie Xi raised their heads to look. It seemed that there was some commotion at the entrance of the food street, with quite a number of people gathered around.

That location seems to be the Muan-can Beef Store!starlight, interwoven with the celestial combat of the stars, instantly filled the entire observatory. 。All the bamboo leaves vanished without a trace under the dazzling starlight, leaving only seven...
