Chapter 377: Nostalgia
Translator: Atlas Studios | Editor: Atlas Studios
This durian weighed nearly 10 catties. If it was full of flesh, it would yield at least 500 grams of flesh.
Bai Wutong’s eyes lit up. Everyone also craned their heads, wanting to see what such smelly fruit flesh looked like.
Bai Wutong pressed down on one side of the durian and twisted her right hand along the gap.
The durian was split into two, and the golden, plump, and tempting flesh was
also exposed to everyone.
Although it smelled even worse, it looked quite delicious.
The durians were just ripe. They were not too soft or hard. If they were placed in the fridge and refrigerated slightly, the texture would be even better.
Bai Wutong got someone to bring over a plate and peeled off the durian flesh in the room. With the exquisite plate as decoration, if one ignored its smell, everyone was still willing to try it.
Bai Wutong continued to peel the durians. After a few rounds, the flesh of the durians was extremely full. If it were in the modern world, she would definitely have gained an advantage.
Those who were close to Bai Wutong were all given a piece of durian flesh. Everyone looked at each other with expressions like they were ready to die.
Huang Zhong also got a piece. The durian in front of him was a serious torture to his sensitive sense of smell.
Ah Duo squeezed through the crowd and saw him holding his plate in a daze.
“Eat it. You’ll like it after trying it once.”
“Our priest just ate half of it!”
When Ah Duo said this, everyone looked at Song Benhua as if they were asking if it was really delicious, and would there be any problems after eating it?
Song Benhua smiled and said, “The Stinky Fruit smells bad but it tastes good. I wasn’t used to it the first time I ate it. After eating it, 1 understood why it was
so smelly.”
Everyone said in unison, “Why?”
Song Benhua smiled meaningfully. “If it doesn’t stink, 1 won’t be able to eat it.”
Song Benhua gave the highest evaluation to the durians, making it undoubtedly a peerless delicacy.
Everyone looked at the durian again, and the resistance in their hearts
lessened.
Just as everyone mustered their courage and was about to eat, Bai Wutong had already picked up a durian and placed it to her mouth.
There was no hesitation…
Everyone was dumbfounded!
As expected of the Consort, her courage was extraordinary!
This durian was a golden pillow durian. It had just been picked and was naturally ripe. The fragrance was mellow and the texture was soft and smooth. One bite awakened Bai Wutong’s fanaticism for durians.
She flashed a smile and took another bite of the durian before anyone could
ask.
She was filled with happiness. After taking two bites, Bai Wutong stopped and took the time to say to everyone, “As Lord Song said, if it doesn’t stink, everyone won’t be able to eat it.
“It’s really delicious.”
Bai Wutong actually found it delicious too. In an instant, the commoners who were watching the show could not help but be curious about what durian tasted like.
Even the Consort, who was used to eating delicacies and was knowledgeable,
could conquer it in one go.
Cui Muzhi immediately took a bite and exclaimed, “It’s so soft and fragrant. It’s a little like the cake made by the Consort previously.
When they were in Youjia village, Bai Wutong would cook all kinds of food when she had nothing to do. The texture of the durian was very similar to the mousse cake.
After Cui Muzhi’s exclamation, everyone’s resistance to durians was mostly dispelled again.
If a person said that it was delicious, it could only mean that his taste was unique.
If everyone said that it was delicious, it meant that it was really not bad. However, many people still could not accept this smell. Cui Lingyi covered her nose and took a small bite.
Before the taste melted on the tip of her tongue, she almost fainted from the
smell.
When she recovered, she realized that it seemed not bad?
If she tasted it even more, it seemed to be quite delicious.
Cui Lingyi looked up and was about to praise the durian when she saw that the others had already eaten the entire durian and were still smacking their lips.
Yang Quanzi stared at the durian in the basket beside him. He was just short of directly telling Bai Wutong to open another one.
Bai Wutong stopped eating after eating a piece of durian. She even warned the diabetic Yang Quanzi, “This fruit is delicious, but the sugar content is too high.
You’d better not eat it.”
Durian had high nutritional value, and its calories and fat content were extremely high. If a pregnant woman ate too much, it was extremely easy for the child to grow too big, and it would not be beneficial to the pregnant woman’s body or delivery.
If she really wanted to eat it, she could only try it.
Yang Quanzi revealed a trace of pity, but he thought to himself that it was not too much to eat it once in a while.
The fruits were all in season, so it shouldn’t be much for him to eat again the next day.
Yang Quanzi suddenly looked at Huang Zhong and smiled cunningly.
Cui Muzhi was convinced by the durian’s taste.
Since Yang Quanzi had designs on Huang Zhong, Cui Muzhi could not ask Bai Wutong for durians, so he naturally thought the same as Yang Quanzi.
They were not the only ones. Most of the people who had tasted durians were satisfied with the texture.
They also wanted their families to try the delicacies that the Consort praised.
Only Huang Zhong could find such fruits. Everyone secretly glanced at Huang Zhong.
Huang Zhong suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He vaguely felt as if he was being targeted by something, and his blood ran cold.
At first, Stinky was unwilling to eat it, but when he saw that Bai Wutong had eaten it and that everyone had eaten it and enjoyed it, he craved for it.
He couldn’t help but take a bite. The cream-like texture immediately made Stinky enjoy it.
Stinky’s chubby little hand picked up a piece of thick durian flesh. The way he smacked his lips was too cute.
Sheng Huaixuan rolled up his slee.es and said, -Such a strange fruit shouldn’t be called a Stinky Fruit.”
When everyone heard the words “Stinky Fruit”, they instantly had the impression that it was disgusting.
Bai Wutong also felt that the Stinky Fruit did not sound good, so she simply said, “The flesh of the Stinky Fruit is rich and sweet, making one miss it. Why don’t we call it the Nostalgia Fruit?”
“Nostalgia fruit?”
Everyone immediately praised Bai Wutong for her literary talents, even the name of a fruit that she thought of was so poetic.
Bai Wutong smiled in her heart. She was just using a h.o.m.onym. Everyone was too exaggerated. They made it sound as ridiculous as discovering Chang e living on Mars.
Bai Wutong distributed a few baskets of durians to everyone.
Huang Zhong had picked quite a lot of mangoes, so Bai Wutong gave one to everyone.
Bai Wutong planned to make the rest into dessert. Then, she would put a few mangoes and durians in her s.p.a.ce and wait for Chu Tianbao to return so that he could eat them.
Some durians were not ripe yet. Bai Wutong chose one that was ripe and peeled the flesh for use.
She planned to make a durian thousand-layer cake.
It would make everyone fully realize the charm of durians.
Since she was going to make a thousand-layer durian cake, Bai Wutong simply got someone to peel a few more mangoes and make another thousand-layer mango cake.
After making the thousand-layer cake, there were still many ingredients left. Bai Wutong simply made a few beautiful mango and durian halberds.
When the desserts were ready, Bai Wutong asked Qingfeng to prepare and let everyone have afternoon tea.
She had been busy for so long. It was time for her to relax..
