Chapter 223 How can you watch the game without eating 0?
In the Imperial College cafeteria, Wei Zeduo, who was waiting in line, took a deep breath and smelled the tempting sour and spicy aroma in the air.
Today's lunch is hot and sour noodles and meatball soup.
Wei Zeduo tried hard to suppress the greed in his heart and turned to look at Shen Keheng who was standing behind him: "Zhongyu, have you tried this hot and sour noodles?"
Meatball soup had been served in the cafeteria before, but hot and sour noodles appeared for the first time.
It is normal that other people have never eaten hot and sour noodles, but it is not necessarily the case for the brothers Shen Kesi and Shen Keheng.
Shen Keheng shook his head honestly: "I haven't eaten it."
He had tried pickled fish and hot and sour potato shreds, but this hot and sour noodles was the first time he had seen it.
"Even you haven't eaten it?!"
Wei Zeduo got the answer from Shen Keheng and felt inexplicably happy.
Look, the Shen brothers also have some that they haven’t eaten yet.
It seems that County Master Yinghua treats everyone equally.
This hot and sour noodle smells so good, it must taste so delicious.
It is so lucky to be a student of the Imperial College, as you can eat different delicious foods every day.
Hehehe~~
Shen Keheng was so focused on thinking about what snacks or treats would be sent to his family soon that he didn't notice Wei Zeduo's strange expression.
Now their family no longer sends them lunch, but occasionally they still send them some snacks or festive food.
There will be a polo match in the Imperial College today, so we will only have half a day of classes.
The Shen brothers did not attend the game, but they would go to watch it in the afternoon.
After Shen Huazheng learned about this, she said that she would prepare some snacks and desserts suitable for them to eat while watching the game.
"Zhongyu, it's your turn. What are you standing there for?"
Seeing that Shen Keheng was absorbed in his thoughts and still standing still when it was his turn, Xue Cong could not help but remind him.
"Oh, right away."
Shen Keheng came to his senses, hurried forward, and went to window number one to get his meal.
……
Shen House
A basket of top-quality chestnuts was delivered from the farm. Shen Huazheng thought about it and decided to make sugar-roasted chestnuts.
It was a good opportunity to make some sugar-roasted chestnuts for Shen Kesi and the others so that they could eat them while watching the polo match in the afternoon.
Since we are going to watch the game, how can we miss snacks? ?
Princess Lejia has been very interested in the making of these snacks recently. When she heard that Shen Huazheng was planning to make sugar-roasted chestnuts, she followed Shen Huazheng and Zhou Ying into the kitchen.
The chestnuts were plump and had been cleaned by the cooks, who also made a cross on them with a knife.
Shen Huazheng explained to Zhou Ying and Princess Lejia: "Under high temperature heating, chestnuts will slowly swell up, and at a certain point they will explode, which may hurt people. Making the sign of the cross can avoid this, and it will make them ripen faster."
Zhou Ying nodded. So that's it.
She thought it was just to make the chestnuts ripen faster, but she didn't expect that its main function was to prevent them from exploding.
Princess Lejia looked at Shen Huazheng with starry eyes, Zhengzheng is so amazing.
Know everything.
Shen Huazheng lit a pot, poured all the chestnuts into it, and added water, which just covered the chestnuts.
She added an appropriate amount of white sugar to the pot and then covered it with a lid.
Start cooking the chestnuts.
Shen Huazheng was watching the pot from the side, and turned off the fire when she saw it was almost cooked.
She lifted the lid of the pot and a rich fragrance wafted into her nose. The water in the pot was almost boiled dry.
After simmering, the white sugar in the pot has become viscous. Shen Huazheng stirred it a few times with a spatula, and the viscous syrup seeped into the chestnut shells.
Each chestnut looks shiny and very tempting.
Qingzhi followed the instructions and brought a large jar of honey and poured it on the chestnuts just out of the pot.
The air is filled with an enticing sweet fragrance that makes people salivate.
smell good! !
……
In the Imperial College cafeteria, everyone was devouring the hot and sour noodles in front of them.
From time to time, one could hear the sound of "slurping" noodles and the sound of people gasping for air due to the spiciness.
Song Ye looked at the hot and sour noodles with red oil soup base in front of him and felt a little hesitant.
The potato noodles in the bowl were just popping out of the red floating oil. The noodles, which had been cooked to a translucent state, were now stained with a lot of red oil, and one could tell at a glance that they were very spicy.
The tempting sour and spicy smell kept drilling into his nose, stimulating his nasal cavity and taste buds, making Song Ye unable to help but swallow his saliva.
But he couldn't eat spicy food very well, and he didn't know whether this bowl of hot and sour noodles was tolerable.
Shen Kesi and the other two were in a completely different mood from Song Ye. In addition to potato flour, there were also a variety of other ingredients in the bowls.
There are fried peanuts, minced pork with mushrooms and chopped green onions.
At first glance, there is red soup in the bowl, translucent potato flour, bright red and tempting fried peanuts, brown sauce-covered mushroom and pork mince, and emerald green chopped green onions.
Just looking at it makes one’s appetite whet, and one can’t wait to taste its deliciousness.
As soon as the hot and sour noodles were served, they couldn't wait to eat them.
The potato flour has absorbed the soup and is smooth, soft and chewy.
Use chopsticks to pick up a small handful of potato flour and put it in your mouth along with the fresh, fragrant, sour and spicy taste.
The sour and spicy feeling suddenly jumped onto the tip of the tongue, and a hot and slightly hot feeling instantly spread between the lips and teeth, stimulating the taste buds and nerves.
The marinade for shiitake mushroom and minced pork is thicker than the soup, and it has a salty and fragrant taste.
One bite and you'll taste the rich umami flavor of mushrooms and the full aroma of meat, along with the sour and spicy flavor of the soup.
It is even more delicious when mixed with soup and potato flour.
It is really comfortable to eat a crispy fried peanut.
Seeing that others were eating so happily, Song Ye picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
Unexpectedly, the hot and sour noodles were not as spicy as he had imagined.
Song Ye ate noodles with the hot and sour soup while eating fried peanuts and minced pork with mushrooms.
From time to time, I would scoop up the meatball soup with a spoon and take a sip to relieve the spiciness.

eldest princess mansion
Princess Yi'an had just woken up from her nap and was drinking tea in the yard.
Her appetite and sleep have been much better recently than before, and she feels more energetic.
I don’t know if it’s a habit, but now Princess Yi’an will drink tea and eat snacks in the yard after her nap.
It feels quite comfortable.
Princess Yi'an blew on the tea in the cup and sipped it in small sips.
The warm tea has a distinct sweet aftertaste, making people feel refreshed.
Before she had finished half a cup of tea, Princess Lejia, who had run away early in the morning, suddenly came back.
"Grandma, what did I bring back?"
Princess Lejia came to Princess Yian excitedly, holding a food box in her hand.
Princess Yi'an said with a smile, "Ning'er, did you bring back some delicious food for me again? Let me guess, it must be some snacks that can be paired with tea."
Princess Lejia would bring back some delicious food from time to time. Some were made by Shen Huazheng, some were from the food street or Yipintang, and some were even made by her herself.
Usually, the food that is hurriedly brought back at this time is suitable for eating with tea.
"Grandma is so smart."
Princess Lejia opened the food box with a smile, took out the plate inside and placed it on the table.
Princess Yi'an looked up and saw fragrant chestnuts neatly arranged on the plate.
The syrup and honey seep into the chestnut shells, adding color to the chestnuts, making them look shiny and very tempting.
"Grandma, these sugar-roasted chestnuts are delicious. I'll peel one for you to try."
Princess Lejia said this and picked up a chestnut.
The chestnuts are fresh and plump, their mouths are open and the golden flesh is about to pop out.
It forms a sharp contrast with the dark brown and shiny chestnut shell.
If you smell it carefully, you can also smell the scent of honey.
The chestnut shells have become very crispy after being roasted.
With just a little force, you can easily peel off the thin and crispy shell and take out the fragrant chestnut meat inside.
She placed the golden chestnut meat on a clean plate and said, "Grandma, try it."
"Okay, our Ning'er loves grandma the most."
Princess Yi'an smiled as she picked up the chestnut flesh with chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
Sugar-roasted chestnuts are not difficult to eat, they are soft and sticky, and have a scent of honey.
With every bite, you can feel the delicate chestnut flesh and the unique fragrance of chestnuts, mixed with the aroma of honey, which is intoxicating.
As you chew, the aroma becomes stronger and stronger, filling your mouth and nose.
I feel like my whole body is surrounded by a sweet fragrance.
Princess Yi'an swallowed the chestnuts in her mouth and said, "It's delicious."
Princess Lejia was very happy to see that she liked them: "Then I will peel a few more for grandma."
Princess Yi'an looked at her granddaughter with a smile on her face: "Silly child, as long as you are willing to sit here with grandma to drink tea and eat sugar-roasted chestnuts, grandma will be very happy."
Princess Lejia smiled sweetly: "Look at what grandma said, I came back at this time specially, isn't it just to accompany grandma to drink tea and eat snacks?"
The nannies and maids on the side couldn't help laughing when watching the interaction between the grandparents and grandchildren.
Another maid came forward and started peeling chestnuts for Princess Yi'an and Princess Lejia.
Princess Lejia happily ate the chestnut meat peeled by the maid: "Grandma, didn't I write a new story some time ago? That one is popular again, and the bookseller has paid a deposit for me to write the next volume."
Princess Yi'an had a look of understanding on her face: "Grandmother came to the palace two days ago and found that the book was among the books that the Queen Mother was reading. She also complained that the author updated too slowly and didn't know when the second volume would be published."
"Ah?" Princess Lejia's eyes widened: "Then grandma didn't say that I wrote the book, right?"
"Of course not. Grandmother promised to keep your secret, so she won't tell anyone."
“I knew that grandma was the best.”
……
Not long after Shen Kesi and his companions finished lunch, the servants of the Shen Mansion brought them the food and drinks prepared by Shen Huazheng.
There are not only sugar-roasted chestnuts, but also potato chips, popcorn and jasmine oolong tea.
"Wow, so much delicious food."
Shen Keheng was grinning so much that his mouth almost reached his ears, he was extremely happy.
There are so many snacks, I can eat as much as I want while watching the game.
There was not much change in Shen Kesi's expression, but he felt sweet in his heart.
He just mentioned today's polo match, and Zheng'er remembered it.
So many delicious foods were sent over, and even the drinks were prepared.
Xue Cong and Song Ye were also very happy. The four of them brought full food boxes to the audience seats at the polo field and sat down in a place with an excellent view.
No one knew what Wei Yu was thinking, but he actually had someone send snacks and drinks to Wei Zeduo.
It was just that the delivery was a little late. When Wei Zeduo came to the audience seats with two bulging oil-paper bags, the game had already begun.
The game on the polo field was intense, with several teams racing fiercely. There were also students in the audience cheering loudly for the team they supported.
Shen Kesi and his friends were eating snacks while watching the game.
A player on the field held a polo stick and swung it hard at the polo ball on the ground.
With the crisp sound of hitting the ball, the polo ball took off from the ground, drew a beautiful arc in the air, and went towards the net of the small goal.
Just as the polo ball was about to hit the net, it was stopped by members of other teams.
"Oh, what a pity that ball just now was missed. It was so close."
As Shen Keheng spoke, he stuffed the peeled sugar-roasted chestnuts into his mouth.
It smells really good, hehehe~~
Shen Kesi and the other two were also eating the sugar-roasted chestnuts with gusto, their faces full of satisfaction.
The sugar-roasted chestnuts are so sticky and fragrant that they almost melt on your tongue.
Just chew it and your mouth will be filled with refreshing fragrance.
Delicious! ! !
The students around were attracted by the aroma of sugar-roasted chestnuts and kept looking in their direction. Some of the shameless ones and those who had a good relationship with the Shen brothers even went up to them and asked for a few.
I peeled off the shell and tasted it, it was indeed delicious.
But they only brought a small amount, and others were embarrassed to ask for more.
Wei Zeduo also asked Shen Keheng for some sugar-roasted chestnuts and tried one eagerly.
It is soft, sticky and sweet, and its taste is completely different from potato chips and popcorn.
But it smells good.
He swallowed the chestnut meat in his mouth and sighed in his heart. These sugar-roasted chestnuts are not sold in Yipintang and Food Street yet, and they are not sold in Lianxiangzhai either.
It must be that Princess Yinghua is giving her brothers special treatment again.
Alas, I'm tired of saying the word "envy".
The students who didn't get any were very envious and jealous, and they also wanted to taste the sugar-roasted chestnuts.
A few of them were quick-witted. After observing the situation, they smiled and went to find the classmates who had gotten the sugar-roasted chestnuts, hoping to take one or two away to try.
Of course, they were all ruthlessly rejected without exception.
The student who had received the sugar-roasted chestnuts savored the delicious taste in his mouth and secretly made up his mind to go to the food street during the holidays to see if he could buy some sugar-roasted chestnuts.
The sun moved westward little by little, and the game on the field had entered a critical moment.
Some of the audience members in the stands were watching the game seriously, looking nervous.
Others were talking in twos and threes in low voices. They were originally talking about the polo match on the field, but as they talked, the topic changed.
"Did you eat the sugar-roasted chestnuts just now? They looked delicious."
"I didn't taste it, but I smelled it. It smelled delicious."
"The ten-day exam is coming up soon. Last time I took the exam, I ranked fifth and got a bowl of potato chips as a reward. I wonder what the reward will be this time?"
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it. I'll go back to review my lessons after the competition is over. I have to get a good grade this time."
