Chapter Twenty-Nine: Out of the Limelight

It turned out that Zhu Nian went back to Zhu Mansion to call Fuyue, and then went to the kitchen. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

She originally wanted to promise Tao to stay honestly in the bamboo garden, but after seeing Tuoba Lei, she changed her mind again.

I wonder what Dow's expression was when he saw her at the banquet.

The servants and maids of the large kitchen had all rushed to the back garden with their meals, and the house was deserted.

Zhu Nian walked into the house and instructed Fuyue to help her prepare a few ingredients, intending to make a delicious meal.

Yun Lesheng stood aside with his hands in his hands, not knowing what to do.

Zhu Nian looked at Yun Lesheng and asked with a smile, "I wonder if the general can help?"

"Okay, but I don't know what I can do for you?" Yun Lesheng was flattered.

"The general has great strength, can you help the mind and face?" Zhu Nian said, and then added: "I shouldn't have troubled the general, but the time is really not enough." ”

Yun Lesheng was dizzy with joy for Zhu Nian's sentence of "heart", thinking that he had accepted himself. She has always called herself a "people's girl" before, deliberately narrowing the distance between the two.

Yun Lesheng didn't consider the actual situation, and directly agreed: "Okay, General Ben is willing to serve." ”

When Zhu Nian brought a strip of flour and put it in front of him, he remembered that he couldn't make noodles, and stared at the flour in a daze.

β€œ......”

"I think that the general has always galloped on the battlefield, how could he enter a place like the kitchen, it is not well thought out. ”

Yun Lesheng's face was indifferent, but he kept nodding wildly in his heart.

"Why don't I teach you?" Zhu Nian suggested.

"Okay!" Yun Lesheng agreed quickly.

Zhu Nian washed his hands, poured the flour into the basin, put his hand in the center of the flour, and pulled the flour from the inside to the outside with his hands, forming a groove with thick edges and thin middle.

Then she slowly poured the appropriate amount of water into the groove, and at the same time, the five fingers of her right hand spread out, and pulled the flour from the inner edge of the groove towards the center of the water, stirring the dry flour and water evenly.

Zhu Nian repeated the action three or four times, forming a small fluffy dough.

"General, come and see. Zhu Nian called Yun Lesheng on the side.

Yun Lesheng leaned over and listened carefully to Zhu Nian's narration.

"General, you just keep your left palm on one end of the dough, and then push the other end outward with your right palm, and then roll the other end back to the side of your body, and keep repeating this step. ”

Zhu Nian taught by example, and his little hands kneaded the dough neatly.

At this time, the two were very close, and when Zhu Nian spoke, there was an air flow next to Yun Lesheng's ear, which made Yun Lesheng feel crispy and numb at the root of his ear, and immediately blushed.

"If you don't feel like you're running out of dough, add some flour and add some water. After Zhu Nian finished speaking, he went to another table to prepare other ingredients, not noticing the change in Yun Lesheng's face.

What Zhu Nian said was very simple, and it seemed to be very easy to do, but when he came to Yun Lesheng, he became in a hurry, and after a while, flour was stuck on his face.

Yu He was hiding in the dark outside the kitchen at this time, his face was full of disbelief, and he roared in his heart: My general, it was destroyed in a small kitchen!

Zhu Nian prepared six prawns, and then asked Fuyue to light the fire.

She uses scissors to cut the shrimp gun and shrimp whiskers, and then peels off the shrimp skin behind the shrimp head with her hands. For the sake of the platter, she left the shrimp tails.

After picking out the black line on the belly of the shrimp, Zhu Nian put oil in the pot, boiled the pot until it was hot, and then added the ginger slices and prawns.

Zhu Nian gently pressed the shrimp head with a spatula to force out the red oil. After the shrimp body is stir-fried until it changes color, she cooks cooking wine along the edge of the pot, then mixes salt, sugar, water and other seasonings into the pot, pours it into the pot, and covers the pot and simmers.

Finally, after the soup is thickened, Zhu Nian sprinkles in the green onion and stir-fry well, and the prawns are out of the pot.

The golden color of this braised prawn is accompanied by a rich soup with layers of brushing, and the fragrance wafts throughout the kitchen.

"Wow, Miss, you're amazing!" Fu Yue looked at Zhu Nian, who was doing the plating, and gave a thumbs up.

Zhu Nian has long been accustomed to the praise of others for his cooking skills, and his expression is indifferent.

She was busy making a plate of classic Lu vegetables - Sixi balls, the plate was covered with lettuce leaves, and the Sixi balls were put on it, which was still full of color and flavor.

After all this, Zhu Nian looked at Yun Lesheng, who was working the dough, after a period of training, he was already comfortable with the noodles.

Yun Lesheng's face was already covered with flour, and with a serious expression, Zhu Nian couldn't help but laugh, and laughed out loud.

Fuyue also looked at Yun Lesheng curiously, and then covered her mouth and snickered.

Yun Lesheng was confused, touched his face and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

This innocent expression provoked another burst of laughter from the two opposites, Yun Lesheng hurriedly walked to the bucket, took a picture inside, and laughed himself.

Only Yu He, who was in the dark, had a black line on his face, and looked at the naΓ―ve three people with a smile.

Zhu Nian used the dough kneaded by Yun Lesheng to make a peony steamed dumpling and a crystal flower roasted wheat.

After Zhu Nian wrote about Yun Lesheng, he and Fuyue rushed to the back garden with two plates of food.

At this time, the singing and dancing of the flower courtyard was leveled, and the guests were all seated and watched the dancers dance with great interest.

Zhu Nian walked slowly from the pool to Dow, with a decent smile on his face.

Tao was shocked when he saw the comer, staring at Zhu Nian's every move.

Zhu Nian walked among the guests and saluted Tao slightly, and with a wave of Tao's big sleeves, he dismissed the dancers, and the music came to an abrupt end.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am the eldest lady of Zhu Mansion, today's mother's birthday banquet, I think about it, I think that making a meal for her can best reflect my heart, so I made four dishes, and I came here to dedicate to my mother. Zhu Nian said respectfully.

"Miss Zhu family, I haven't seen her show up all these years!"

"Why didn't you see her at the door just now?" and then when everyone was watching the song and dance, they offered it, because there were not many, Zhu Nian said that he would pick one person to eat

The "......" guests talked a lot, only Tuoba Lei sat in place, and the clouds were light and breezy.

"You!" Zhu Yanran sat beside Tao, she felt that Zhu Nian was too deceitful, and planned to get up to find Zhu Nian's theory.

Tao grabbed the corner of Zhu Yanran's clothes under the table and shook his head, suggesting that she should not act rashly.

"Due to time constraints, I made relatively little food and could only try it for my mother and one guest. Zhu Nian walked towards Tao with Fuyue, "So I can only pick one guest to taste, and I hope that other old men and ladies will forgive me." ”

Tao and Zhu Yanran both laughed, mocking Zhu Nian in their hearts, because they thought that Zhu Nian's cooking skills were still as bad as before.

Zhu Yanran snorted coldly, thinking in her heart: Don't do it yourself! In this way, I really want everyone to taste the food you cooked.

Zhu Nian put the dishes in front of Tao one by one and explained.

"This is braised prawns in oil. ”

"This is a peony steamed dumpling. ”

"This is crystal flower roasted wheat. ”

When putting down the last plate, Zhu Nian respectfully bent down towards Tao and said: "This is the Four Happiness Pills, which imply the four happy events of life, happiness, longevity, and happiness, symbolizing the reunion of wealth and prosperity, auspiciousness, and Nian'er's blessing to her mother." ”

The guests in the audience saw the sincerity in Zhu Nian's eyes and nodded affirmatively.

Zhu Nian took out some of the three dishes and put them on the other three plates, and then continued: "I will pick one of the three dishes to try with a guest, but these four happiness balls are Nian'er's heart for her mother, and her mother must eat these four happiness." ”

After speaking, she turned around and looked at Tuoba Lei, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of her mouth.

Zhu Nian walked to Tuoba Lei's side with a clear purpose, saluted respectfully, and then put the plate on his table: "I hope this guest will not dislike it and can taste what I made." ”

Tuoba Lei stared at the food, frowning slightly, and the guards beside him were also a little anxious.

Every time the emperor eats, he needs the guards to test him for poison with silver needles. Tuoba Lei is a private interview with Weifu this time, and he doesn't want to reveal his identity until he has to.

Now in full view, if the guards are allowed to test for drugs, it is likely that their identities will be exposed, so Tuoba Lei and the guards will be a little worried.

Just as the guard wanted to make a move, Tuoba Lei secretly shook his head at him and stopped him from moving.

Tuoba Lei's eyes were staring at Zhu Nian tightly, the two looked at each other, and Zhu Nian looked calm and calm.

For some reason, Tuoba Lei inexplicably trusted this little girl, he picked up chopsticks and sandwiched a crystal flower roasted wheat.

There was a gleam in my eyes: it was so delicious!

Tuoba Lei thought that the food cooked by the imperial chef in the palace was already top-notch, but he didn't expect Zhu Nian to make people want to stop.

"It's delicious!" Tuoba Lei looked at Zhu Nian, his eyes were full of appreciation: "Wonderful, it's wonderful!"

He sandwiched braised prawns and peony steamed dumplings to eat, still nodding his head.

The other guests all looked at Tuoba Lei wanting to use the food, and they were a little hungry, and the guests on both sides of Tuoba Lei were even more tormented, because the aroma of the food had already wafted to them.

Tao's eyes widened in disbelief, and he quickly picked up some food to taste, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes: I didn't expect Zhu Xinnian to have this trick!

She still didn't believe that these delicacies were made by Zhu Nian, she just thought that she had asked for something superior.

At this time, the delicious food in the mouth is like arsenic and loses its original taste.

In a corner not far from the garden, Yun Lesheng smiled at the corner of his mouth, looking at Zhu Nian who was standing beside Tuoba Lei stupidly.

A birthday banquet dispersed, and Tuoba Lei disappeared into the street with the crowd, but Zhu Nian left a big impression on his heart, and he decided to summon Zhu Nian after returning to the palace, give her a reward, and then help him cook.

Tao and Zhu Yanran sulked and returned to Shi'an Yuan angrily.

And after Yun Lesheng and Zhu Nian chatted, they also reluctantly left Zhu Mansion.
