Chapter 923: Beggar’s Chicken

Lan Jiaye was a curious baby to begin with. As soon as the black ball rolled out, he spontaneously leaned over to poke it.

“Don’t touch it, it’s still hot! Are you trying to cook your hands?”

Lan Jiaye was shocked. He silently looked down at his fair and slender hands and retracted them back.

“It looks like earth.”

“Earth?” Lan’s expression was suddenly subtle. This was what his aunt meant by “delicious.” Was she… trying to make him eat dirt?

Should he eat or not? Lan Minghan was instantly caught in a dilemma.

Oblivious to Lan Minghan’s internal struggle, Su Yayan struck the black ball with a small hammer.

There was a cracking sound as the outer layer of soil split open, revealing the yellowed lotus leaves inside.

“There’s something inside!” Lan Jiaye’s eyes lit up like a child who had discovered a special toy.

Su Yayan reached out to pull out the thing in the mud, but Huo Chenhuan stopped her.

“I’ll do it,” Huo Chenhuan said as he quickly took out the things inside and placed them on the table before Su Yayan.

Su Yayan took his hand and looked at it. After making sure that it was not scalding hot, she walked over and cut the rope that bound the lotus leaf. She lifted the lotus leaf that was wrapped in several layers and a bright red chicken appeared in front of everyone.

Su Yayan tried to poke with her chopsticks and immediately poked open the chicken stomach, revealing the various spices, prawns, diced meat, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and other side dishes hidden in it. She also completely released the fragrance locked inside.

“This is called Beggar’s Chicken. Legend has it that a beggar once obtained a chicken by chance, but he did not have any seasoning on hand. Helpless, he could only throw the yellow clay firewood into the fire to roast.”

“However, the one I made can be considered an improved version. I added some ingredients to it and wrapped many layers of lotus leaves on the outside before wrapping them in mud. The outer layer of mud won’t be dirty. Lotus leaves are the leaves of lotus flowers. I’ve said before that lotus flowers are full of treasures. There are lotus seeds in the lotus pot and lotus roots at the bottom. The flowers, lotus roots, and lotus seeds can be eaten. The lotus leaves can also be used to wrap some food and cook it.”

At this point, Su Yayan even gave everyone a big surprise. “Beggar’s chicken is only one of the ways of cooking. Next time, I’ll make you guys a lotus leaf glutinous rice chicken that’s also very delicious.”

Although everyone present and the audience in the livestream did not know what the Lotus Leaf Glutinous Rice Chicken looked like, many of them were already craving it after hearing Su Yayan’s words.

“Little… Little Aunt, can we eat this now?” Lan Jiaye almost shouted out loud and looked at Su Yayan eagerly.

“That’ll do.”

Everyone’s eyes lit up. They wished they could just attack.

However, considering that there were others around and they were under the camera, everyone resisted the urge.

He ran around and found his chopsticks before finally reaching out to the chicken that was filled with the fragrance of “sin”.

The chicken skin on the surface of the chicken had long become fresh, thin, and tender after being roasted for a long time. There was even a faint charred fragrance in the mouth.

The fragrance of the lotus leaves slowly seeped into the chicken during the barbecue, causing the chicken to be crispy, tender, and fragrant.

Coupled with the various condiments and dishes inside, everyone was mesmerized by the taste after just one bite.

“How is it? Is it delicious?” Su Yayan asked subconsciously when she saw that they were silent after eating.
