Everyone talked and laughed, and then entered a private room on the second floor, before Yang Zheng had time to sit down, he heard a sound of footsteps, followed by a line of women in emerald green clothes.

The women moved slowly along the big round table, starting from the southeast direction, and began to put down the fruit plate in their hands, and the delicate Jingdezhen porcelain plate fell one by one, containing all the melons and fruits of this season, and piled up the round table to the full.

Then, all the women walked up to everyone one by one, put their hands on Xiaoman's waist, and said a blessing to everyone one by one.

The movements are gentle, neat, compared to the ups and downs, so unmoving, it is rare to be a woman, with a hibiscus face, eyes like autumn water, and a fluttering garment, showing the soft beauty that women in the south of the Yangtze River should have vividly.

These women may not all be the best women, but they are definitely delicate facial features, and they are deliberately dressed up, and their smiles and smiles make people feel pleasing to the eye.

Yang Zheng is okay, Yang Shiqi saw that this small building was exquisite and good, and these women were even more charming and moving, so he nodded secretly.

Liao Qing saw it in his eyes, and a trace of joy welled up in his heart, and the prefect of Hangzhou on the side also nodded, and took the lead in stretching out his hand and said: "Your Highness must be tired after a long journey, why don't you sit down and have a few drinks?" ”

"That's right! Right! Jiangnan water wine, light and mellow, the most suitable for eliminating the fatigue of the way, Your Highness will have to drink a few more glasses later! ”

Yang Zheng knew that coming here today could be regarded as a warm gesture, and it was inevitable to drink later, so he simply nodded.

Liao Qing was originally worried that Yang Zheng had a lot of dissatisfaction with today's preparations, and when he saw Yang Zheng's face showing joy, he put his mind at ease, as an important member, he was actually a person who was very particular about pomp and circumstance, if it was according to his thoughts, the banquet should be placed outside the building, constantly atmospheric, and more high-grade, but in the face of the prince, he couldn't figure out the prince's temper for a while, for fear that the pomp would be too big, but it would backfire. After careful inquiry, I found this good place, although it is not as magnificent as the building outside the building, but it is located at the foot of the lonely mountain, surrounded by mountains and rivers, a little more literati atmosphere, but also to the temperament of this prince.

Liao Qing waved his hand at the women, the women understood, bowed their heads and slowly retreated, Liao Qing then hugged his fist at Yang Zheng, and said: "This Cuiping is also the first time to come to the humble position, I don't know what is delicious, I ordered a few dishes indiscriminately today, and please don't be weird?" “

Yang Zheng waved his hand and said, "Eating alone is not particular about dishes?" As long as there is good wine? Yang Zheng has been in Hangzhou for more than two years, and he also knows some of the authentic dishes in Hangzhou, what "West Lake Vinegar Fish", "Dongpo Meat", "Turtle and Crane Tongchun", "Bamboo Tube Turtle", "Flower and Full Moon", "Brown Duck", "Fish-flavored Three Eggplants", "White Jade Pot Outside the Mountain" and many other dishes he can't name at all, but from the perspective of color and fragrance, they are all classic dishes.

Liao Qing, as the host, wanted to introduce these dishes one by one, at this time he said loudly: "These are the authentic dishes of Hangzhou, speaking of our Hangzhou cuisine can be traced back to the Southern Song Dynasty more than 1,000 years ago, when Lin'an as a prosperous Kyoto, the north and south of the famous chefs gathered together, businessmen from all walks of life gathered here, Hangzhou cuisine reached its heyday, divided into two genres of "on the lake" and "city box". The former is mainly made of fish, shrimp and poultry, and is good at raw stir-frying, stewing, tender and other techniques, paying attention to the clear, fresh, crisp and tender taste, and paying attention to retaining the original taste. The latter is mostly made of meat, and the cooking method is mainly steamed, stewed, simmered, and burned, paying attention to the light oil, light pulp, light and tender taste, and paying attention to the combination of fresh and salty. ”

Yang Zheng said: "Lord Liao is too polite, looking at the dishes on this table, I have already had a great appetite, and I will definitely eat a few more bites later!" ”

Liao Qing was overjoyed when he heard this, and he was busy introducing the dishes to him personally.

After listening to most of it, Yang Zheng didn't remember the name at all, he just felt that just listening to the name must be delicious, thinking that he could eat and drink for nothing today, and the benefits of this prince were also a lot.

At this moment, the bartender stepped forward with a basin of clear water and asked everyone to clean their hands, Yang Zheng replaced Zhu Zhanji's identity, his identity was the highest on the field, and everyone asked him to come first, followed by Yang Shiqi, Hu Hui, Liao Qing, and then the prefect of Hangzhou, and several subordinate officials.

After cleaning their hands, everyone sat down again, Liao Qing glanced at the dishes on the table, and said: "If you want to say these dishes, Your Highness must have tasted them, but Your Highness has never tasted this "honey fire recipe", so why don't you taste it first?" ”

Yang Zheng didn't eat much Hangzhou dishes, and when he heard Liao Qing praise this dish so much, he was also a little moved, took a look, and said, "But what's the point?" ”

Liao Qing took the clean towel from the shopkeeper, wiped his arm, and then pointed to the "honey fire party" and said: "This dish is made of high-quality Jinhua ham as raw materials, and then burn the skin with a strong fire, scrape it clean in the water, and then boil it in the soup pot, and then cook it as above, the skin is crispy and delicious, if the ham is stored for a long time, the skin is dry and hard, then it must be soaked in this method, not only that, the preparation of zuò this dish, but also needs to be repeatedly soaked and steamed with rock sugar water, the taste is sweet and salty, crispy and glutinous, lined with fresh lotus, decorated with green plums, Cherries, osmanthus, etc., the color is beautiful, the soup is thick, and the taste is delicious! It took a lot of work? Your Highness, try it! “

Without waiting for Liao Qing to finish speaking, a woman had already picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it into Yang Zheng's bowl, Yang Zheng was not polite, and quickly put it in his mouth and tasted it, the taste was really a little special, the soup was mellow, the meat was rotten and fragrant, and what was even more evocative was that the salted meat was slightly mellow and sweet, which made people have an endless aftertaste.

Everyone looked at Yang Zheng, waiting for his evaluation, Yang Zheng savored it carefully, and then said: "The color is fiery red, the marinade is transparent, the ham is crispy, the taste is fresh and sweet, and it has a deep aftertaste, a rare boutique dish!" “

As soon as these words came out, not only Liao Qing's face was full of joy, but the shopkeeper waiting on the side was even more happy, who came today, he didn't know at first, but after the trouble on the dock just now, he vaguely knew some, seeing the prefect on the table, Lord Liao Qing was headed by the young man, and the young man was extraordinary, and he didn't know who this person was, at this time his heart was both happy and nervous, and he was happy that the prince of the dynasty could come to Cuiping Ju for dinner today, and his own restaurant would be famous in Hangzhou early tomorrow morning. The nervous thing is that the person who comes is the prince of the dynasty, if you don't like these dishes, I don't know what kind of trouble there will be?

was secretly uneasy, and after listening to Yang Zheng's praise of this secret dish, the heart that he had been carrying was completely put down, and he hurriedly stepped aside respectfully, and whispered: "Thank you Your Highness for your praise, this dish is mainly pickled ham, which is warm in nature, sweet and salty; If it is paired with the above grade liquor, it has the effect of strengthening the spleen and appetizing, nourishing the blood and nourishing the kidneys! “

After being reminded by the shopkeeper, Liao Qing remembered, scolded in a confused voice, and hurriedly said: "I almost forgot about my humble position, I need high-quality wine to eat this honey ham!" Saying that, he threw a look at the shopkeeper, who was also a clever person, turned around and retreated, and after a while, he walked over with some difficulty holding an unopened wine jar in his hand.

I was about to put down the wine jar, but I heard Hu Hu say: "This is Shaoxing wine?" ”

The shopkeeper was slightly stunned, and he couldn't put down the wine jar for a while, so he could only nod and say, "This lord has good eyesight, is it indeed Shaoxing wine?" ”

This Shaoxing wine was as early as the battle of Wu and Yue, and the king of Yue Gou Jian went out to fight Wu before, rewarded the soldiers with wine, and left the eternal beauty of "a pot to relieve the drunkenness of the three armies". During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, rice wine was listed as a tribute. "Absorb the water of the lake in front of the door, and make Shao wine Wanli Xiang" is actually a famous wine in Zhejiang, this shopkeeper saw that the prince of the dynasty, he did not dare to hide his privates, and moved out the Shaoxing wine that had been treasured for many years, so as to please everyone, but he was asked by Hu Hu on the spot, and suddenly there was a little displeasure on his face, but he couldn't do it, he glanced at Hu Hu coldly, and said: "Could it be that this adult thinks that the rice wine of the grass people's restaurant is difficult to drink?" ”

Hu Hu smiled and said: "The shopkeeper misunderstood, this Shaoxing rice wine has been using glutinous rice as raw material since ancient times, and the high-quality glutinous rice with white grains, full grains, good smell and no impurities is selected. At the same time, it is required to be produced in the current year. Therefore, the glutinous rice raw materials of Shaoxing wine can be summarized into three words: refined, new and glutinous. After selecting the refined glutinous rice, and then feeding it according to a strict proportion, the rice wine brewed is a first-class boutique, but it is not suitable to drink this rice wine today? “

When the shopkeeper heard that it was not that his wine was not good, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't understand why he shouldn't drink rice wine today.

Liao Qing on the side was also a little curious, and said: "The lower officials are confused, and they don't understand what Lord Hu means by this, so please say it?" “
