Episode 561 Mom
When I opened the lid, steam rose from the hot pot.
Then, the familiar smell of pig’s feet wafted out through the open lid.
The fragrant scent of spices, soy sauce, and sweet incense began to waft into the kitchen.
“It smells so good, Eun-gong.”
Even though it had a nice scent while it was boiling, Soso had a happy expression on her face at the scent that burst out as soon as she opened the lid.
It is said that a chef feels good when he cooks delicious food for his guests and sees them happy eating it, but there is no greater joy than seeing the woman he loves happy with his cooking.
He answered with a pleased expression.
“Is that so? Okay, let’s salvage it and cut it.”
“Yes, Eun-gong.”
Now all we have to do is take out the saturation and cut it before it cools down.
Pig’s feet can be eaten cold, but honestly, it’s obvious that slightly warm pig’s feet are tastier than cold ones.
In my previous life, when I went to a pig’s feet restaurant, they cut up slightly warm pig’s feet for me.
So I took out a ladle, put it in a large pot, and scooped up the pork that was half-submerged and flopping around.
-Whoaaah.
“Oh, it’s hot.”
I took the pork out of the boiling pot. I was using a ladle to scoop it out, so there was some distance between us, but the steam rising from it was enough to cook my hand.
As I lifted the pork with each hand, I heard Soso’s worried voice next to me.
“Be careful, Eun-gong.”
“Okay.”
He smiled at Soso’s words of caution and immediately placed the pork on the cutting board.
Now all we have to do is take out the saturation and cut it before it cools down.
The day of the sashimi was sharpened on a whetstone and the meat was immediately separated from the bones.
Then he dipped his hands in cold water for a moment and then used an axe to chop firewood.
-bang!
A cross-section of pork that cuts like firewood with each swing.
The flesh and fat and brown-colored skin were layered beautifully.
“Yeah, this is it.”
The unique cross-section of pig’s feet is also present in the head meat.
-Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The pig’s head was cut in half, then lengthwise cut into thin, neat pieces.
Then he quickly scooped it up with the blade and placed it on a large plate.
Cooking doesn’t end when you make it. It’s a cooking process that includes plating the food on a plate and serving it to the guests.
He piled up the meat in layers with the skin facing upwards, and blew on the piece that looked the most delicious, then put it in Soso’s mouth.
Just a little while ago, I had a happy expression just from the scent, so I was curious to see how happy I would be if I ate it.
“Here, have a taste of Soso too. Ah···.”
A privilege that only male chefs can enjoy.
The moment when he can see his woman happy, especially seeing her happy while eating his cooking.
I thought that when the meatballs were put into Soso’s mouth, she would immediately come out to greet me with her mouth, but Soso did something a little different than expected.
I glared at my brother first because he had already teased me once.
Then, my brother looked at us with a pleased expression and then quickly turned his head away.
This time, my brother was very tactful and pretended not to see me.
It seemed like Soso’s education went well last time, but when Soso saw that her brother had turned his head, she quickly accepted the six-combined pig’s head meat that I offered her and ate it.
-Churup.
The meat disappears into thin air with Soso’s unusually red lips.
The meat disappears into Soso’s alluring lips, to the point where I have a slight feeling that my lips are being sucked in along with the meat. Then, Soso’s exclamation is heard.
Soso answered, rubbing her two fists with a happy expression.
“Hmm. It’s delicious. Eun-gong. It’s so delicious. Eun-gong’s cooking is always new and delicious.”
He nodded his head in admiration at Soso’s words.
“I’m glad you like it. Okay, then, should we cut the rest?”
As I looked at Soso, who was licking her lips, with a pleased expression, I picked up the knife again, and a piece of meat was thrust forward with a swipe.
Soso was looking at me with her cheeks red.
Maybe they should feed each other.
He smiled at Soso, who was slightly embarrassed, and quickly went out to greet her with his mouth.
‘Soso is always cute, right?’
“Thank you. It must taste good since Soso fed it to me.”
Since it was the dish I had made, I had to taste it before it went out on the table. So I put the piece that Soso held out to me into my mouth, and I could taste the sweet and fragrant taste of the meat and vegetables.
Crispy skin and soft layer of fat.
There’s some chewy meat there.
And at the same time, the scent of five spices fills your mouth.
I made it, but the Jokbal Yukhap Jeodooyuk from Jungwon was very well made.
-Bang! Bang!
Now is the time to hurry.
Before it could get any colder, he quickly piled the meat, which had been cut into thin slices, onto several plates and ordered the servants to take the three plates upstairs first.
Because the craftsmen will be waiting.
“Okay, everyone, please bring this upstairs.”
“Understood, Mr. Ryu.”
And he told them to leave one of the remaining plates for the kitchen staff who were being tortured by the smell, and to take the remaining two plates to the table where the wives were.
“Would you like to take the two Soso to the table where Yeong-yeong and Maeng-hee are? I will go upstairs to where the father-in-laws are.”
“Okay, Eun-gong. Have a nice day. Do you have to come quickly?”
“Understood. I’ll just tell my craftsmen the names and meanings of the dishes and come back right away.”
As Soso approaches the table carrying two plates, Yeongyeong quickly runs over and takes the plates.
“You came!”
“Young-young, be careful. I’ll spill it.”
“Don’t worry. Gaga’s cooking never spills. Come on, everyone, gather around. Let’s eat Gaga’s cooking.”
“It’s black, but it smells delicious? By the way, what’s the name of this dish?”
“They said, ‘Six families unite to form a single family.’ The six families unite to become the head of the central plains.”
“aha.”
Leaving behind the wives who were noisy with the meat and pork dishes, I followed the servants to the third floor and arrived at the table where the rich aroma of pork wafted from the meat and pork dishes.
The artisans in front of the dishes were looking at them with their mouths wide open.
“How come you haven’t eaten yet?”
When I asked the craftsmen, tilting their heads at the sight of them still waiting, even though they must have been tasting it, the craftsmen smiled.
Zhuge Zhang, the leader of the Triads, stood up and spoke.
“Since this is a dish you made for our Yukhaphoe, shouldn’t you listen to the explanation before eating it? I can’t just eat such a meaningful dish.”
They said they were upgrading from Samhaphoe to Yuhaphoe, but it looks like they’ve already changed the name.
Zhuge Zhang, who had been upgraded from the leader of the Triad Society to the leader of the Six Alliances, was smiling.
‘If that’s the reason, then I admit it.’
He nodded in response to those words.
“Okay. Well then, let me quickly tell you the name of the dish I’ve prepared and its meaning. The name of the dish is Yukhapjeodooyuk (?????). It’s a dish with the meaning that six families have come together to become the head of the Central Plains martial arts world.”
Then the craftsmen nodded their heads with delight at my explanation.
“Oh my.”
“It’s the six-way battle. Let’s become the leader of the Central Plains martial arts world.”
“I was a little skeptical because it was pork, but if that’s what it means, then it’s perfect.”
“Good. Good.”
Then, as the meat of the Yukhapjeoduk disappeared from the mouths of the craftsmen, exclamations flowed out.
“Hehe, it’s chewy and full of fat, and it’s really tasty. You should try it too, Poison King.”
“The oil is really good.”
“The skin is also very chewy.”
As you know, this is an era that values ??local government above all else.
In those days, everyone couldn’t help but be amazed at how the skin and fat were still alive when cooked, and in the end, the adults who tasted the food all smiled with happy expressions.
The Zhuge clan, the Sichuan clan, the Namgung clan, the Hwangbo clan, the Murong clan, and even the Nanman Yasoo Palace.
It was the moment when the Five Great Masters of the Central Plains and the Southern Man Beast Palace of the New World Murim ate the Six Harmonies and became one as the Six Harmonies Society.
“For the sake of the Six-Party Association!”
“For!”
The sound of the craftsmen’s glasses clinking flowed briskly out of the room on the third floor.
***
A little after lunchtime, Monk Seongjin came to see me.
“Hey, Cheongun?”
“yes?”
“Okay, can I talk to you for a minute?”
I received a sudden request for an interview just a few days after starting work.
I answered with some skepticism, as it wasn’t enough time for any particular problems to arise.
“Please speak.”
Then Seongjin looks around and starts talking secretly again.
“Joe, can we talk somewhere quiet?”
“A quiet place?”
For now, I answered that I understood and took Seongjin to the innermost room on the third floor.
Because it seemed like the new recruit needed an interview.
“Shall I prepare some tea?”
“Oh, no. It’s okay. Just talking.”
I was going to talk while drinking tea, but I nodded and asked when Seongjin said let’s just talk.
“Can you tell me why you are doing this?”
Then Seongjin hesitated and asked in a cautious voice.
“Excuse me, this may sound strange, but please don’t misunderstand.”
“Yes? Oh, yes. Feel free to talk. Feel free to talk.”
I was wondering what on earth he was talking about and why he was taking so long, but the story that came out of Seongjin’s mouth was truly an interesting one.
“Hey, it’s strange how the servants here give me these looks.”
“What about the servants?”
“Yes, what do the servants’ eyes look like? Like the eyes of beasts greedy for food? Oh, of course, it could be my imagination···.”
‘No, you’re quicker than I thought. You can turn the tables too.’
Seongjin’s words were not a mistake.
When I told Wol-hee that Sung-jin was going to work at our restaurant, I later called her over and asked her quietly about her reaction.
“Wol-hee, the way you look at Seong-jin seems a little strange. Why is that?”
Then, Tsukihi answers with a smile.
“Isn’t that the case?”
“middle?”
“Yes, medium.”
“If it’s heavy, what else is there?”
Wol-hee says that it is natural for her eyes to be strange because she is in the middle of something.
When I tilted my head at those words, Wol-hee explained with a strange smile.
“Aren’t we all from the Haomen clan?”
“yes?”
“Do you know when kisaengs can be looked up to by other kisaengs?”
“Well? When there are a lot of guests looking for you?”
I asked Wol-hee if she would naturally gain the respect of other gisaengs if she made a lot of sales, but she shook her head.
Wolhee answered with a smile.
“When you make a guy come over who you thought would never come over.”
“Never come over?”
“Yes, for example, something like that···.”
“What?”
“A woman who has abandoned the rules and rushed to me while avoiding women. There is no greater honor for a gisaeng.”
So maybe everyone is after Sungjin.
She responded to Seongjin’s words with a coquettish grumble.
“Haha, since you work in a place with many women, you probably misunderstood. The eyes of women are all like that.”
To be honest, what I said wasn’t a lie.
I’m a man who only knows my wife, and all my wives have the same look in their eyes.
‘Of course it’s not a lie.’
“Is that true?”
“Of course. Surely the servants wouldn’t look at their prey like beasts when they’re not even eating men?”
“Is it just my imagination?”
“sure.”
Seongjin looked slightly relieved at my words.
That was when his anxiety was calmed for the time being.
An urgent voice is heard from outside.
“Your Majesty, Cheongun. I am Biyeon! I will go in!”
Biyeon’s voice said she would come inside without even listening to the answer.
“Fresh?”
As I looked towards the entrance with a slightly bewildered look on my face, Biyeon ran in and quickly approached me, whispering in my ear.
[Look, they say a black ship came to our house.]
[Black ship?]
If it’s Bon Ga, it means the head of the Ryu clan, and if it’s Heukseon, it means a black ship.
That meant that my mother, who had returned on the black ship, had arrived.
‘mom?’
