SFS Chapter 459 Imperial Edict
Chapter 459 Imperial Edict
When they roasted the first duck, the fire was too low and it took a long time for a layer of yellow spots to appear on the duck's body. So they increased the fire and it ended up being burnt.
For the second one, they immediately reduced the heat, resulting in the lower half of the duck being mushy, while the upper half was still a little undercooked.
They changed their strategy again, and when Zhao Nan took out the duck, they saw that the third one was even more messed up than the first one.
Zhao Nan's face darkened as he looked at the things he had baked. "Boss, this... I really can't do this."
Zhao Nan never thought that one day he would doubt his life because of roasting himself like a roast duck.
Not to mention him, even Gu Qingqing felt that she had encountered technical difficulties. The shop next door to her house used to sell roast duck, and she played there a lot when she was a child.
The shop owner liked her very much at that time, but at the same time he treated her as a child who knew nothing. Every time they roasted duck, they would not avoid her.
Why is what she is doing now not okay?
"Qingqing, what are you doing? I heard from Daxin that you wanted to eat roast duck?" Wen Wuyan's figure and voice came over from the aisle.
Gu Qingqing turned around and frowned at him, "I was originally planning to make roast duck for you while you were at home, but who knew it wouldn't work out!"
Zhao Nan, who was standing beside him, quickly took over the conversation and said, "Boss, you don't need to blame yourself. It's mainly because I can't grasp the essence of it."
Seeing Zhao Nan coming out to take the blame for her, Gu Qingqing smiled awkwardly, "Brother Nan, this is not your fault. I must have missed something. Let me think about it carefully in the next few days."
Wen Wuyan walked over and looked at the dark duck in the basin. He couldn't help but say, "I've also seen roast duck in the county. The skin is golden in color and has a unique aroma."
Wen Wuyan looked at Gu Qingqing and said, "Qingqing, you are so creative."
"Wen Wuyan, you are making fun of me." Gu Qingqing had a fierce look on her face, but she was actually looking at him with an innocent face with her back to everyone.
"No, no, no, how could I make fun of you? I'm just telling the truth." Wen Wuyan continued.
"Hey, you..." Gu Qingqing really glared at him this time.
Wen Wuyan stopped when he saw that things were going well, and immediately coaxed her by saying, "Although it doesn't look very good, it has a unique banana flavor. Let me try it!"
Wen Wuyan twisted off a roasted duck leg without hesitation, and after peeling off the skin with his hands, the meat inside looked good except that it was a little dry.
Everyone present saw him put the duck leg into his mouth and chew it happily.
"Wuyan, how is it?" Zhao Nan asked nervously.
Wen Wuyan nodded, "Except for the burnt taste, I think it tastes pretty good. You can try it too!"
Zhao Nan unceremoniously twisted off the other leg of the duck, and imitating what Wen Wuyan had just done, he removed the charred skin and took a bite of the meat.
The more he ate, the brighter his eyes became. "Boss, it tastes pretty good."
Seeing her children drooling as they watched, Gu Qingqing walked over, picked up the duck with the missing leg, removed the burnt part, and tore off the good meat inside to share with her children.
The little guy's eyes lit up instantly. Gu Qingqing also tasted it. The taste was okay, but the appearance was not good.
"Brother Nan, just roast it as you like. As long as it's cooked through, we'll have a roasted duck tonight."
"Oh, what a waste of the syrup you made." Zhao Nan muttered and put the less cooked ones back into the stove.
In the evening, everyone ate the roast duck enthusiastically. Dahei ate the burnt meat and enjoyed it with relish.
Around noon the next day, Wen Wuyan once again got on the car that Zhao Dong used to deliver goods to Xinzhou's house to go to study.
Gu Qingqing was left at home with the children to live day after day.
However, only five days passed like this, and on this day Gu Qingqing took the children to pull out the eggplant, long beans and cucumber seedlings in the field.
Suddenly, when I looked up, I saw a group of people running towards me on the road, all of them in police uniforms.
Gu Qingqing's attention was suddenly attracted by the figure in front of her. Who else could it be but Wen Wuyan?
Gu Qingqing's heart skipped a beat. Something must have happened to Wen Wuyan, otherwise why would he be walking with so many officials?
Not knowing what she was thinking of, she threw the seedlings in her hand to the ground and walked over there.
"Mom, where are you going?" Wen Xin asked hurriedly when she saw this.
Gu Qingqing said without even turning her head, "I think I saw your father. I'll go check it out."
The closer he got, the more it looked like Wen Wuyan was being escorted back by officials.
It was not until Wen Wuyan ran towards her that she breathed a sigh of relief and shouted from afar, "Wuyan, what happened? You, you..." She looked at the officers behind him and asked anxiously.
"Qingqing, don't panic. I'm fine. This is a great thing. A great thing has happened in our family."
Gu Qingqing felt relieved when she saw that Wen Wuyan was not in trouble. However, she really couldn't remember what good thing had happened in her family that would alarm the police to follow them.
Wen Wuyan didn't let her wait for long, and said hurriedly, "Master Xie reported the matter of our family's composting to the court, and the emperor has issued an order to read it out at our house. Master Xie closed the door and sent someone to the academy to call me back. Master Xie was also worried that we would not be able to accept the order, so he specially asked Master Chen to come and help us check it out."
"Ah! It's actually done? We have to receive the imperial edict? This, this..." Gu Qingqing felt like a headless fly, anxious and confused, but she didn't know how to receive the edict.
That's an imperial edict. I've only seen it on TV before. This, this, this...
While Wen Wuyan and Gu Qingqing were talking, Lord Chen had already led his men over.
At the same time, Zhao Dong and his men who were laying the foundation on the other side had no idea what was happening here, so they dropped what they were doing and ran over.
He heard it before he could even catch his breath.
"...Hurry up, the person who will announce the decree will be here soon, clean up here quickly. Come on, let me go to your house." Lord Chen who came over urged.
