Urban Life: I Became Jiang Nansun's Landlord

Page 28

"Four dishes, that doesn't sound very good. Four sounds like death. How about we add one more?" Zhu Suosuo said with a smile.

"Get out of here. If you say another word, get off the plane." Lin Yi said without turning his head.

"Ahem... I was just saying. If you don't want to do it, then don't. Okay, then let's have four dishes and a soup." Zhu Suosuo said, "Sigh, it's not easy for Nansun to come all this way, and she only gets to eat so little. It's really pitiful."

Nansun, it's not that I'm unwilling to entertain you, it's that someone else is unwilling to do it.

Jiang Nansun's eyes widened. She had a lot to say, but Zhu Suosuo's fierce glare stopped her.

Zhu Suosuo wouldn't let her say it.

Not letting her speak and making her take the blame, Jiang Nansun was extremely anxious. She made up her mind that if Zhu Suosuo didn't give her an explanation, this matter wouldn't be over.

Too bully.

Even inside the large supermarket, the two maintained a question-and-answer session.

Zhu Suosuo would ask a question every now and then, and Lin Yi would answer it every now and then.

It's absolutely amazing.

The only downside was that Zhu Suosuo always dragged her along, putting her in the middle, which really made Jiang Nansun feel uncomfortable.

But she couldn't say it.

"What are you standing there for? Get off the bus and buy some groceries," Lin Yi said.

"Okay!" Zhu Suosuo jumped down with a smile.

Jiang Nansun walked down slowly.

Lin Yi walked ahead, while Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun walked together. Zhu Suosuo followed Lin Yi happily.

Jiang Nansun quietly tugged at Zhu Suosuo and asked, "Suosuo, it's one thing for you to be greedy, but how could you say it's me?"

Lin Yi must think I'm some kind of person, taking advantage of my newfound visit. That's not right.

Zhu Suosuo glanced at Jiang Nansun, her expression very sad, and let out a long sigh.

Seeing Zhu Suosuo's reaction, Jiang Nansun was startled. Jiang Nansun quickly said, "Suosuo, don't be like this. Tell me your reason and see if it makes sense to me."

Zhu Suosuo felt a little smug, but said calmly, "Hey, Nansun, don't be angry. Do you think I did this for myself? No, I did it all for you."

“It was clearly you who wanted to eat it,” Jiang Nansun said.

“Nan Sun, do you know what treasure hunting is?” Zhu Suosuo asked.

"I know." Jiang Nansun nodded.

"Lin Yi's cooking skills are like a treasure trove. You've eaten her noodles before, weren't they especially delicious?"

"But he's incredibly lazy. If I don't take this opportunity to dig him out, I'll have even less of a chance once you leave," Zhu Suosuo said.

"But isn't this still what you want to eat?" Jiang Nansun didn't realize that it wasn't for her sake at all.

"Trust me, you won't be disappointed with Lin Yi's cooking skills. You'll definitely be very satisfied after you finish eating."

"You'll know after you finish eating. You'll see whether I did this for you or not," Zhu Suosuo said.

Zhu Suosuo was very confident in Lin Yi's cooking skills.

"Are you still going to buy it or not?" Lin Yi shouted from the front.

"Buy, buy, buy..." Zhu Suosuo followed with a smile.

Jiang Nansun felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Chapter 30 Backstroke Black Fish, Zhu Suosuo's mentality explodes (Seeking flowers and ratings)

This time, because there are more dishes to cook, there are more ingredients needed.

Among the god-level culinary skills that Lin Yi acquired, the most important factor in whether he can make a perfect dish is the freshness of the ingredients.

Moreover, he can tell whether an ingredient is fresh just by glancing at it or observing it.

This is a secondary ability brought about by god-level culinary skills.

As for Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun, they just need to follow along and carry the dishes.

They're just two tools; they won't buy it anyway.

This is why Lin Yi rarely cooks multiple dishes; it's just too much trouble.

Zhu Suosuo asked with a smile, "Lin Yi, what should we buy?"

"I'll buy it later, you pay, and you two carry it," Lin Yi said.

"Huh? Why? I can buy it too," Zhu Suosuo said.

"Are you sure? The ingredients you bought might not be what I want," Lin Yi said, giving her a long look.

"Forehead……"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Suosuo shook her head immediately. She hadn't expected such a saying and decided to forget about it.

However, it sounds quite high-end.

Over the next period of time, Lin Yi bought beans, soybean sprouts, mung bean sprouts, lettuce, celery, cilantro, tomatoes, eggs, tofu...

As for seasonings, I bought Sichuan peppercorns, salt, chicken bouillon, dried chili peppers, and pepper powder...

After walking around for a while, the two girls were carrying a bunch of bags.

Moreover, they paid for it, and Lin Yi just bought whatever he wanted.

"Lin Yi, are we really going to buy so much stuff? Is it really that much?" Zhu Suosuo couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Nansun nodded subconsciously. Yes, they had bought too much.

Lin Yi said, "Didn't you tell me to give it my all? Of course, I can't afford to have any problems with the ingredients."

Actually, Lin Yi deliberately bought a little more of some things to scare the two of them.

Otherwise, if they eat well and then come to him for a meal every now and then, wouldn't his cooking skills become theirs?

Lin Yi definitely can't do this.

So when buying things, it was a bit troublesome to buy ingredients.

Hopefully, they'll give up after they finish eating.

"What if I just do something casually?" Zhu Suosuo suddenly thought of Lin Yi's words, "do something casually."

“That makes things much simpler,” Lin Yi said.

Zhu Suosuo never expected that she had gotten herself into this mess.

She was starting to doubt whether buying so many ingredients and seasonings was just for making a few dishes.

"What? Regretting it now?" Lin Yi said with a smile.

"No regrets." Zhu Suosuo immediately shook her head and said, "You're kidding, I have a hundred thousand yuan in my pocket, how could I regret buying some ingredients? No way."

It was this 100,000 yuan that provided Zhu Suosuo with tremendous support.

Otherwise, Zhu Suosuo would have knelt down today.

The ingredients for these dishes alone cost several hundred yuan.

Not only that, but the two most important fish haven't been bought yet.

Zhu Suosuo thought that buying any fish would be fine, but now it seems she was overthinking it.

It's anyone's guess what strange requests Lin Yi will make.

Zhu Suosuo asked, "Lin Yi, what are your requirements for buying black carp and grass carp?"

"It has to be wild; wild ones taste plump and delicious," Lin Yi said.

Zhu Suosuo looked at the fishmonger not far away and took Jiang Nansun over to take a look.

"Understood, I'll go ask about the price first," Zhu Suosuo said.

"go Go."

Jiang Nansun followed and asked, "SuoSuo, you've already bought so many, are you still buying more?"

"Buy it." Zhu Suosuo said firmly, "Hey, you don't know, Lin Yi's cooking skills are like mining. As long as you are willing to put in the effort, there will always be surprises."

I've finally got this opportunity today, how could I possibly let it slip by? No doubt about it, it's just buying ingredients, it'll only cost a little money.

"It's just a little tiring, even if it kills me, I'll make sure Lin Yi cooks the food properly."

Jiang Nansun was very surprised when he heard this. Had Zhu Suosuo gone mad just to get a meal?

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhu Suosuo said.

"You mean, you'd go to such lengths just for a meal? Is that really necessary?" Jiang Nansun was speechless.

Zhu Suosuo said, "You don't understand. Food is a foodie's greatest passion, and they would die for it."

As she spoke, Zhu Suosuo looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, adopting a very somber expression.

Jiang Nansun was deeply moved after reading it.

"Are you buying fish or not? If not, move aside and don't interfere with my business," the fishmonger said.

“I’ll buy it. Who said I’m not buying it? What’s the rush?” Zhu Suosuo said.

"Are these grass carp wild? How much per pound?" Zhu Suosuo asked, pointing to the fish.

"Of course they're wild, eight yuan," the fishmonger said.

"Eight yuan a pound, a grass carp weighs four or five pounds, so it's only about forty yuan. Not bad." Zhu Suosuo thought to herself.

"What about the blackfish? Is it wild?" Zhu Suosuo asked.

"These snakehead fish are not wild. If you want wild snakehead fish, the price will be higher, 36 yuan per catty," the fishmonger said.

"36 yuan per jin (500g), and if a fish weighs four jin, that's 144 yuan. That's a bit expensive," Zhu Suosuo thought to herself. "Too expensive. Is there anything cheaper?"

"Yes, there are also black carp that can swim on their backs over there, only 20 yuan per pound," the fishmonger said.

"Really? A blackfish that can swim on its back, so cheap?" Zhu Suosuo asked in surprise.
