Chapter 212: The Foodie Who Can't Stop
"Yan Xi is the only grandson of the Queen Mother, and he has a heavy army and a noble status, which girl in the capital is not just for him to choose?"
Nangong Xue despised Xiao Qianqian's shallowness, but she was extremely dedicated to drawing a sky-breaking wealth for her, which made her see more and more she wanted to have it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Moreover, marry Yan Xi, you can be a housewife when you enter the door, not to mention the reward of the queen mother every year, that is, the eldest princess's mansion itself is very rich, last summer, Yan Xi led your cousin back to Beijing and disposed of the slaves in the house, do you know how much silver those slaves are greedy for?"
Nangong Xue's expression was faint, but her tone was a little seductive.
Xiao Qianqian shook her head, her eyes a little stunned.
"There is no master in the house, the servants are turned upside down, the degree of food and clothing is better than the master, the ginseng, abalone and bird's nest have not stopped on weekdays, jewelry, silk and satin do not need to be said, it is silver, and it is all taken casually......"
Nangong Xue said, her expression was even lighter, "It is said that after checking the account book at that time, millions of taels of silver were already missing. ”
When Nangong Xue said a few million taels, it seemed to be saying a few taels of silver, and this indifference deeply stimulated Xiao Qianqian, who was already jealous and hateful.
Her eyes were red, revealing a bit of cruelty, but she pursed her lips tightly and didn't say anything.
When Nangong Xue saw her like this, she also knew that today's goal had been achieved, but she didn't forget to stimulate it again.
"The third prince has been traveling all these years, in the end he can't be compared with the princes who grew up in the imperial city, he has similar preferences to Yanxi, and the woman he likes must not be a lady like the lady in the capital. ”
After saying this, Nangong Xue smiled faintly, changed the topic, and talked about other things.
But the words that Nangong Xue said before seemed to have taken root in Xiao Qianqian's mind, and it only took a little stimulation to grow into a towering giant tree.

Licheng.
After sending off the three princes of Nanyu, Xiao Jiu was still busy, whether it was calligraphy or housekeeping, he had slowly gotten started, but he had a bit of the momentum of being a housewife.
Although it was out of the first month, the snow had not stopped, and in February, three or four snows fell in Licheng one after another, and the confrontation with the Bai people became more and more tense.
Probably because of Xiao Jiu's humanoid killing weapon, there were too many shadows left on the Bai soldiers on Chinese New Year's Eve, so for more than a month, the Bai tribe was unusually peaceful, only occasionally fighting a guerrilla, but it didn't matter.
Yan Xi was able to rest for a month, going to the barracks every day, and he could return home before dark.
It's just that Mo Yi has been staying in the station a few years ago and has never left, and he can't leave after the New Year, and he looks at his young master arriving late and leaving early every day, and the tears in his heart are going to gather into a sea.
On this day, the weather was sunny, Mrs. Xiao's newly planted vegetables were ripe again, and Xiao Jiu was also busy for a long time, and he had nothing to do, so he beckoned the people in the kitchen to sharpen bamboo skewers.
"What is this for?" Su Ci saw Xiao Jiu standing on the side, turning the group of people in the kitchen around, and asked a little helplessly.
"It's a nice day, I'm going to eat a barbecue. Xiao Jiu said, looked at Su Ci again, and said, "By the way, eat barbecue, there is no barbecue stove now, brother go build one!"
Su Ci didn't expect that he just asked in passing, and he got an errand, a little crying and laughing, but he was also willing.
"What kind of stove does it have to be built?"
"It's not difficult at all, just build a long one...... Xiao Jiu said, took two steps forward and picked up one from the bamboo skewers sharpened by the people below and gestured to Su Ci: "Look, the width should not exceed half of this bamboo skewer, if it is long, it will be casual." ”
Anyway, it will only be used once, Xiao Jiu only plans to make it simply, and after today, he will go to build a special barbecue stove, and he can eat it at any time in the future.
Xiao Jiu made a gesture, and Su Ci also had a rough idea in his heart, and left with a bamboo stick.
The kitchen just killed a sheep today, and he was going to eat mutton noodle soup, but he happened to be seen by Xiao Jiu, so he suddenly became interested in eating barbecue.
There are not many people in the General's Mansion, and there are only five or six people in the kitchen on weekdays, but now one is cutting meat, the other is washing vegetables, and the rest are cutting bamboo skewers.
Xiao Jiu stood for a while, and then felt that this was not very efficient, so he rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen to help start cutting meat.
This raw meat was not easy to cut, but Xiao Jiu had a lot of strength, and it didn't take any effort at all, and the meat was cut into small strips, neatly and quickly.
After working for an hour, I had enough bamboo skewers to be cut, and the cut mutton had been pickled and tasted, because the people in the house were also included, so the project of this skewer of meat was huge, and Xiao Jiu asked those who had no work at hand to come over to skewer the meat.
Rao was like this, and it took more than an hour to skewer more than 300 catties of mutton.
Originally, Xiao Jiu thought that eating a sheep was a bit too much, but after thinking about the number of people in the house and the amount of food, he didn't say anything.
skewered mutton, Xiao Jiu asked people to skewer potato chips and shiitake mushrooms, and they could get rid of the greasy while eating.
When Yanxi came back from the station, the barbecue was already in full swing in the house.
Xiao Jiu demonstrated the meat once, and the chef's Li Yi followed him to watch it once, and then he also learned it, and the rest was handed over to the kitchen, and Xiao Jiu only sat in the front hall and waited to eat.
Fortunately, Su Ci thought of Xiao Jiu's usual style, the barbecue stove was very long, and it was not a problem to test one or two hundred skewers of meat at the same time, but it took two or three people to watch.
"I smelled a fragrance from afar. ”
After Yan Xi returned home, he followed the fragrance and found it, and when he saw that Xiao Jiu ate it fragrantly, he didn't even know that the corners of his mouth were stained with oil, so he couldn't help but feel funny.
"It's not Xiao Jiu'er yet, I've been busy for a few hours, just to eat this barbecue. The old lady pointed to the potato chips and lamb skewers on the plate.
Although this barbecue is delicious, it is too greasy for an old man like her to eat.
It was also Xiao Jiu who remembered that she was an old lady, and she had asked the kitchen to make mutton noodles for her to eat, and she also tasted it by the way.
Xiao Jiusan swallowed the meat in his mouth twice, looked at the old lady and retorted: "Grandma wronged me again, and I didn't eat it myself!"
Whether it was in the past or now, Xiao Jiu has never had the habit of eating alone, and when he thinks of anything delicious, the general's mansion also eats it at one time, which is also a benefit, and no other family has it.
"Isn't that what you want to eat?" the old lady sneered.
Xiao Jiu rolled his eyes with a snort, knowing that he couldn't say anything about the old lady, so he pulled Yanxi to sit down and eat together.
"You eat, I let people cook milk tea, although the barbecue is greasy, drinking some milk tea can also relieve greasyness. ”
Yan Xi smiled helplessly, took a bite of the barbecue meat handed over by Xiao Jiu, swallowed it, and said with a smile: "This is very similar to the roasted whole sheep of the Bai clan, but the taste is better than the roasted whole sheep, and the smell is too fishy." ”
