122 Extra: Daocheng Bell (II)
The carriage ran over the post road, and the sky became hazy again, and before I knew it, a little snow fell and fell to the ground, and in a blink of an eye it melted away.
Yun Ye looked depressed, and finally turned his head again, glared at She Qingfeng and said, "...... There are many good men in the world, why do you have to pester Qingquan alone? ”
She Qingfeng sneered: "There are many people in the world who are older than you, why do you have to call Lu Gongcao to be the eldest brother?" ”
Yun Ye was so choked that he couldn't speak, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of An Guohou who had a sinking face on the other side, and he didn't dare to speak if he had the heart to argue, but he was afraid that it would be self-defeating and he would fall into a crime that wanted to cover up, and suddenly felt that this young man was really sinister and vicious.
Lu Sheng saw that Yun Ye was burned, and he smiled bitterly for a while, so he had to interject again and ask, "Qingfeng, when did you get acquainted with Guo Yuan?" ”
Unexpectedly, one sentence made She Qingfeng show a sad and inexplicable look, he clenched his hands into fists, and said in a dumb voice: "When Ah Yuan was seven years old, I met him. ”
The young man raised his head and looked at it leisurely: "I once asked him: Ah Yuan, is it good to marry me when you grow up?" If you say a good word, I'll treat you to a gong cake and almond tofu. At that time, he clearly agreed with joy on his face, who knew that the world changed over time, and people's hearts were fickle, but now he wants to marry someone else. ”
Yun Ye couldn't help but close his eyes and sighed: "What does a seven-year-old child know about getting married?" He promised you, but for the causeway cake and almond tofu. ”
She Qingfeng was stunned, but then his face was full of unconvinced, and he said: "What do you know, Ah Yuan will never lie to me." He also consulted with me before he wanted to marry. ”
Yun Ye frowned: "Since it's been discussed, why do you want to get in the way?" ”
She Qingfeng became angry and said angrily: "I, I, I agreed before, but now I regret it!" ”
Guo Yuan is a first-class talent, and he is a rare talent in the country, but just because he was born in a poor family, he is not reused, and he has no enthusiasm to serve the country, so how can he be willing?
However, his foundation is weak, and he wants to borrow the power of his in-laws. Thousands of choices, and I fell in love with Xu Langzhong's connections. Yun Ye and him are just classmates and friends, if they become in-laws, even if they are separated by several bloodlines, they are still a family in the end, and this relationship is far thicker than that of friends.
It was Guo Yuan who carefully discussed with She Qingfeng and talked bitterly in exchange for She Qingfeng's approval. Then Guo Yuan confessed his heart to Xu Xiu, and asked Yun Ye for help, striving to form a good alliance between Qin and Jin. He promised She Qingfeng that when his position was consolidated in the future, he would take She Qingfeng home in the name of a concubine.
When Lu Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but sink his face and reprimanded: "Nonsense! ”
She Qingfeng misunderstood, nodded again and again, and said: "Ah Yuan is clearly in love with me, why do you want me to be a concubine?" What a fool! ”
Yun Ye's face was also very ugly, he grabbed She Qingfeng's clothes, gritted his teeth and said angrily: "You demon, you actually bewitched Qingquan to harm my cousin!" ”
She Qingfeng wanted to argue, but he caught a glimpse of the gloomy faces of everyone in the carriage, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he had to pull Yun Ye's wrist while saying, "Who, who wants to harm your cousin?" It's just a discussion, and I don't take it seriously...... Your cousin isn't as good-looking as I am......"
Yun Ye was furious and raised his fist: "Evil beast! When the two of you were plotting against Ah Xiu, did you ever think that she would be a side branch of my Yun clan after all, where did you put my Yun clan! ”
She Qingfeng was stunned and said, "I really didn't think about this...... You mortals have too many twists and turns, where can you figure it out? ”
Yun Ye was extremely annoyed, and swung a punch at She Qingfeng's face, Lu Sheng hurriedly leaned forward to stop him, and persuaded him with good words. When there was chaos, there was a sudden bump in the car, and he almost pounced on Yun Ye, but his waist was tightened by Xie Ying's hand, and he was dragged back to the soft couch opposite, and he sat on Xie Ying's lap and was embraced.
For a while, Yun Ye and She Qingfeng also forgot to fight, and looked at the two opposites blankly, Xie Ying took a long time, put one hand on Lu Sheng's knee and patted it calmly, squinted and said, "What do you see?" ”
Lu Sheng got up expressionlessly, sat upright on the side, and then said coldly: "Sit down!" ”
Yun Ye let go of She Qingfeng's clothes, She Qingfeng let go of Yun Ye's fist, and the two of them sat down with straight waists, both of them with an honest look of bowing their heads and listening to the training.
Lu Sheng was calm on the surface, but he was already annoyed and angry in his heart, where could he think of a precept, so he had to say: "Everyone is good at introspecting, and before getting out of the car, don't speak again." If not, we will not intervene in this matter. ”
The two of them each showed anxious looks, but they both wanted Xie and Lu to uphold justice, so they remembered the instructions, gritted their teeth and stopped talking, only nodding their heads again and again.
The car was clean for a moment, Xie Ying was very satisfied when he saw this, and then he put his hand on Lu Sheng's waist, and it was pushed open by the scabbard, and Lu Sheng said coldly: "You are not allowed to speak." ”
Xie Ying's face stiffened, and the two people opposite each other, one to the left and the other to the right, just stared at the snow outside the car like a wooden chicken, for fear that he would accidentally burn himself. As for how to snicker in his heart, it is unknown.
After another half a cup of tea, the carriage arrived at the foot of Plum Blossom Mountain. Yun Ye hurriedly jumped out of the carriage, becoming more and more agitated, but She Qingfeng still followed behind slowly, and his heart became more and more happy when he saw him almost jumping.
Until Xie Ying and the others also entered the main hall and ordered: "Release people." ”
She Qingfeng bent down and easily lifted the brass bell and put it aside.
At the head of the clock, there is a soft couch, a coffee table, several food boxes, and tea, and it seems that he has not been wronged. Guo Yuan's soft couch stood up, his complexion was slightly depressed, and when he saw Yun Ye and the two people on the side, he hurriedly saluted and said, "Xiaguan thanked the rank for helping." ”
Yun Ye hurriedly stepped forward to look at him carefully, and sighed, "Brother Qingquan, fortunately, you are safe and sound. ”
Guo Yuancai smiled bitterly and wanted to speak, but he heard She Qingfeng snort heavily on the side, he paused, led She Qingfeng back, and said to Yun Ye: "Brother Yun Ye, Qingfeng is my childhood sweetheart's brother, he ...... If you are offended, please see in the face of the foolish brother and bear with me. ”
Yun Ye sighed: "Qingquan, he is not sensible, and you are not sensible either?" Why did he come up with such a plan, which almost affected Ah Xiu's life. ”
Guo Yuan said with a look of shame: "It's a foolish brother who was confused for a while...... The foolish brother will try to make up for it in the future and seek the good brother...... Forgive me this time. ”
He said that he lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down in front of Yun Ye.
She Qingfeng's face changed, but Yun Ye was also at a loss, and couldn't help but glance back at Lu Sheng, only then did he sigh and grit his teeth...... That's it. Brother Qingquan, you can do it yourself in the future! ”
He was angry and helpless, so he hurriedly hugged his fists at Xie Ying and Lu Sheng, turned around and walked out.
Xie Ying sneered: "It's just a trivial matter, but it delayed me so much." ”
He also turned and walked out.
She Qingfeng was terrified, so he had to kneel down beside Guo Yuan and whispered, "Xie Fu...... Master Gong Cao, my sister has every opportunity, so don't bother her with this little thing. I...... I knew I was wrong. ”
The young man showed a look of remorse, Guo Yuan held his wrist and sighed in a low voice, "Lu Gongcao, this matter is all because I am insatiable and have Longwangshu, which has affected Qingfeng...... Although he is a snake demon, his mind is extremely simple, and he is not harmless. I, Guo, pleaded guilty to punishment and asked Gong Cao to intercede for Qingfeng in front of An Guohou. ”
She Qingfeng said: "I want to punish him together!" How can I stand idly by! ”
These two people are competing to admit their mistakes with each other, Lu Sheng was angry and funny, so he simply sat aside, and saw that the two of them were arguing, so he had to interrupt and said: "Get up, An Guohou has no intention of meddling, let me ask first, Guo Yuan, what are your plans?" ”
Guo Yuan turned his head and glanced at She Qingfeng, and sighed: "Let's take one step at a time." There is only one thing - no matter how high the temple is, no matter how far away the rivers and lakes are, I will never be separated from Qingfeng again. ”
She Qingfeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Guo Yuan with a happy face, and he couldn't stop smiling.
Lu Sheng bowed his head and said: "A gentleman is true to his word, and he will do what he says." ”
Guo Yuan hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Don't dare to open the river." ”
She Qingfeng pursed his lips and smiled: "If he repents again, I will eat him!" ”
Guo Yuan also smiled at him: "I don't regret it." ”
Lu Sheng saw that these two people were affectionate, and he couldn't tolerate others in his eyes, so he had to sigh lightly, turn around and walk out of the door. went around to the backyard and found Xie Ying's figure, he was actually directing Ruosong Ruozhu to cut down cherry trees.
Lu Sheng stepped forward and couldn't help but sigh: "Ah Ying, even if these two people are messing around and delaying their efforts, why do you bother to use the cherry tree to get angry." ”
Xie Ying said: "This is cut for you." ”
Lu Sheng was stunned and said, "I won't take a few trees to get angry." ”
Xie Ying was still in a good mood, took the dagger, cut out a piece of wood from the branches piled on the ground, and put it on the end of Lu Sheng's nose, and then said: "The cherry trees in this courtyard are more than 60 years old, and they bear fruit every year, and now the branches are also permeated with the fragrance of cherries, which is best for roasting." ”
Lu Sheng was suddenly shocked, he sniffed deeply, only to feel that the wood exuded a warm and fresh aroma, faintly containing the fragrance of cherry fruit, which was very attractive. He recalled the lychee wood he had asked for in Xu's Mansion before, but he was afraid that it was also the same wonderful use, so he couldn't wait to hold Xie Ying's wrist and said, "Let's go, go back quickly." No one is here this time! ”
It's just that he unfortunately became a prophecy, and when the carriage arrived at the gate of Xie Mansion, he met a servant from Lu Mansion and said for Lu Yuan: "The eldest lady will cook in person today, and please ask the second master to go back for dinner." ”
Xie Ying was getting out of the car, seemingly ignoring it, but his face sank again, and he walked past Lu Sheng without saying a word and entered the gate.
Lu Sheng looked at his back and disappeared behind the door, hesitated for a moment, and still ordered: "Excuse my sister-in-law on my behalf...... If you have something important to do today, you won't go back. ”
He did not wait for the servant to speak, but hurried into the gate and searched for the backyard.
Sure enough, in the spacious courtyard, Ruoxia and the others were already busy, placing an oven on the cobblestone ground, lighting a fire to add firewood, and placing a few cases on the side of the brown and red shiny, like a pearl of wild boar, began to prepare for the barbecue.
Xie Ying stood aside, inspecting the lychee wood sent by the Xu Mansion. Mrs. Xu prepared carefully, and ordered someone to cut the lychee wood into two inches thick, spliced it into a whole plank, and submerged it in well water to send it to Xie Fu.
Lu Sheng sniffed closer, and said: "The aroma of lychee goes best with chicken, if you are pine, go get some chicken." ”
Xie Ying followed and ordered: "Look at what ingredients are in the kitchen, take some each." Invite Mr. Zhu to take charge of the cooking. ”
Wakamatsu smiled and grotted off.
Lu Sheng squinted at Xie Ying, and when he saw him come in, the look on this boy's face had already passed the rain, but he still had a straight face. According to Lu Sheng's experience, Xie Ying is like a big cat who is angry at this time, just by brushing his hair, he can turn evil into good fortune and be invincible.
The three ovens lit silver charcoal, set up grills, smoked meat with chryka, lychee, and apple wood crumbs, and closed the lids. In addition, three wooden planks soaked in well water were placed on the grill, and the smoke and roasted were one, but after a while, the wild boar fat was roasted and precipitated, and as the heat sizzled, the rich aroma full of fruity meat gradually rose and diffused.
Lu Sheng followed Xie Ying to sit on the seat a little farther away, Xie Ying drank, he also drank, Xie Ying took the dried peach, he took the first step with a silver fork and inserted a piece of dried peach to Xie Ying's mouth, and praised: "I thought that the barbecue was just a matter of cooking on a fire, but I didn't expect that there was a university question among them." Ah Ying is really an omniscient and omnipotent expert. ”
Xie Ying opened his mouth to eat dried peaches, and it happened that Ruosong led Chef Zhu to help the cook, holding various food boxes and bamboo baskets to come in. He nodded slightly and said, "There is a specialization in the art industry, if you talk about the knowledge of barbecue, you should consult Mr. Zhu." ”
Chef Zhu hurriedly bowed to the two and said, "Don't dare to be." ”
Then he commanded the cooks to get busy, while explaining to Lu Sheng: "Different locations, different meat quality, so each has its own corresponding cooking method, in order to bring out the best taste." For example, the tenderloin here is also divided into shoulder loin and small tenderloin, the shoulder loin is slightly tougher than the small loin, and is most suitable for frying and grilling. The small tenderloin is delicate, most suitable for slicing, freshly roasted and eaten, and the best is with cherry wood and small roast, the meat melts in the mouth, fragrant and sweet, and the end is wonderful. For example, this plum blossom meat, the red meat is sandwiched with a thin layer of fat, before roasting, the fat penetrates into the meat when roasting, the taste is like jade fat agar, just sprinkle a little salt to enhance the taste, thick but not greasy, and add a point of sweetness and refreshing. ”
When Chef Zhu talked about his business, the cooks were either slicing and dicing, or grinding into minced meat, and they were busy in an orderly manner, while they had already placed the grilled thin slices of tenderloin and sweetfish on top of the crispy, green lettuce leaves.
It is also served with a variety of sauces, so you can taste the original flavor and change the flavor as you like. Lu Sheng tasted it, his eyes lit up, and he praised it again and again, which made Chef Zhu's face shine even more, and his chin folds trembled with joy.
Xie Ying tasted it and praised it, but then asked, "How to roast snake meat?" ”
Chef Zhu was stunned and muttered: "The snake meat has more than tendons, but the balsam is insufficient, it is purely roasted over fire, it is easy to dry and easy to firewood, and the entrance is not good." But it's best to make soup or snake meat soup, if the Hou Ye insists on roasting, and let the villain try it first......"
Lu Sheng couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly said: "No need, but feel free to ask." ”
Xie Ying snorted in a low voice: "You don't need to roast it, that kid will make a mess again, and he will make him into snake meat soup." ”
She Qingfeng was only afraid that his body would be cold at this time.
Sure enough, it doesn't hurt to offend anyone, but you must not annoy Lord Xie. Lu Sheng thought about it and simply asked, "In addition to these three kinds of fruit trees, what other fragrant wood can be roasted?" ”
Xie Ying saw that he was diligent and inquisitive, and sure enough, he no longer dwelled on She Qingfeng's affairs, and replied: "The aroma of meat is already strong, and it is mainly light to add fragrance, such as sandalwood agarwood and other aromas are too strong, but it is not advisable to dominate and not distinguish the main and secondary. It is to choose more fruit wood, such as apple, pear, apricot, and some foodies are not satisfied with this, but also use cypress, pine, paulownia and the like. ”
Lu Sheng clapped his hands and sighed: "Guqin is mostly made of paulownia wood, so in this way, burning the qin and cooking cranes can be regarded as an elegant thing that does not get tired of eating. ”
Xie Ying paused, and finally said with a smile: "If you want to taste it, it's not difficult, there are a few sections of paulownia wood stored in the backyard warehouse, and you can't roast a crane, but you can also roast a duck." Wakamatsu, you can bring someone to fetch some paulownia wood. ”
Lu Sheng had tasted the various tastes of fruit wood barbecue, and was in high spirits, so he volunteered to go with Wakamatsu, but the paulownia trees in the warehouse were all whole sections of tree trunks, and it was Wakamatsu who ordered someone to take an axe and saw and chop it on the spot. Lu Sheng waited boredly, turned his head and saw the outside of the warehouse, there were a few plum trees dead next to the rockery, the branches were twisted and withered, and he was afraid that he would be able to light it if it was burned.
He thought about it, took an axe and walked out, picked up the driest branches of each tree and cut them down, and without waiting for Wakamatsu to prepare the paulownia wood, he rushed back to the courtyard with a bundle of dead branches, and said with a smile: "Ah Ying! Try the plum branch yakiniku too! Elegant and delicious, I think it is no worse than burning the qin and boiling the crane. ”
Unexpectedly, Xie Ying stared at the plum branch in his hand with wide eyes, and he didn't even realize that the wine cup in his hand had fallen, and the whole cup of osmanthus wine was sprinkled on the cloak, and Ruoxia Ruodie, who was accompanying her, also covered her mouth, looking surprised but afraid to make a sound.
Xie Ying asked, "You...... Cut down the plum tree branches next to the rockery? ”
Lu Sheng's intuition was not good, he put the branch on the ground and whispered, "That'...... Those trees are all dead, and they are born in strange shapes, and I am afraid that I will be very sick before I die, and sooner or later I will cut them down, and I, I will ...... Took a few twigs ......"
Xie Ying's face suddenly turned black like a dark cloud pressing down on the city, but Ruodie couldn't bear it, and laughed out loud, Ruoxia hurriedly covered her mouth, glanced at Xie Ying's face, and then forced a smile to explain to Lu Sheng: "My son-in-law has found more than ten big plum families, and it took seven years to easily raise these five plum trees. I thought that after a few days of heavy snowfall, I would be able to walk on the snow with Baoyang Gongzi to enjoy the plum branches, but I didn't expect Baoyang Gongzi to ...... today Cut first for the ......"
Xie Ying got up suddenly, walked in the direction of the wing, and said, "Change my cloak." ”
Lu Sheng's heart was so weak that he followed him with a sad face, and walked into the side room, but Xie Ying said, "Go out." ”
Lu Sheng misunderstood that Xie Ying drove him away, and he was stunned for a moment, so he was about to be angry, but he saw that Xie Ying was giving orders to Ruoshuang and the others in the wing.
A column of servants saluted, Yuguan withdrew from the room, and Xie Ying said, "Give me a change." ”
Lu Sheng honestly stepped forward to untie his cloak for him and took it off his shoulder, but Xie Ying reached out and took him into his arms.
The room was as warm as spring, and there was a hundred and incense burning, dispelling the chill of the clothes, leaving only the fetters that seemed to melt the bones and blood, Lu Sheng lost his mind for a while, and the heavy cloak fell to his feet from his hand, and he murmured: "Ah Ying......"
Xie Ying didn't let him go with both hands, his chin was against his shoulder, rubbed all the way down Lu Sheng's back, slid down to his waist, dragged him into his arms, and slapped him the side of his buttocks, and snorted coldly: "In Baoyang's heart, I'm afraid I won't even be able to take half of the weight." ”
Through the thick robe, that palm sounded loud, but it didn't hurt or itch, and Lu Sheng didn't care at all. On the contrary, listening to his tone, it seemed to be brutal but actually resentful, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, but he had to hold back a smile, rubbed Xie Ying's shoulder repeatedly, and said softly: "Ah Ying naturally occupies it." ”
Xie Ying's face darkened even more, pinched his cheek and said angrily: "Only half? ”
Lu Sheng couldn't cry or laugh, this person's ability to gain an inch is unparalleled in the world, although it is more or less Xie Ying's own temperament, but it is also indispensable to Lu Sheng's connivance. Now I have to sigh and say, "Ah Ying, how can you be willing to dissipate your anger?" ”
Xie Ying said: "I want you to be the only one inside and out, up and down." ”
Lu Sheng wanted to ask, "How can you be the only one inside and out, up and down?" Xie Ying sank down, picked him up, and walked to the bed.
Lu Sheng's heart was hot, but he remembered the pile of dazzling fruit trees outside the room, hooked Xie Ying's neck, and whispered, "...... Barbecue ......"
Before the words fell, I felt that my body was in the air, and when I came back to my senses, I had fallen into the soft futon.
Xie Ying was angry, his behavior was inevitably rough, and he hurriedly tore through the jacket made of fine and soft satin on Lu Sheng's body, showing a bit of compulsion more and more, as if Lu Sheng was extremely unwilling, he leaned down and bit the side of Lu Sheng's neck fiercely, and said vaguely while biting: "Now I still think about barbecue, barbecue is more important than me?" ”
Lu Sheng was bitten by him painfully and itchyly, and finally turned his head sideways and laughed, threw aside his completely incomplete clothes, held Xie Ying's cheeks with both hands, approached the tip of his nose and touched him lightly, and said softly: "Ah Ying is more important." ”
Xie Ying snorted coldly, and finally restrained a little, his slender fingers slowly drew circles against the young man's naked upper body, and while kissing around his eyelids and cheeks, the tip of his nose and the corners of his lips, he asked in a dumb voice: "How important is Ah Ying?" ”
Lu Sheng admired the beauty close at hand, and raised his head in accordance with his kiss, and gently inserted his fingersIn the thick black hair, he rubbed it carefully against his scalp, and still said softly: "I am inside and out, up and down, and Ah Ying is the only one, so naturally it is very important." ”
Xie Ying stiffened, his eyes became darker and darker, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Demon." Leaning over and crushing him.
Then the incense melts and warms the tent, lingering all night.
Chef Zhu, along with the cooks and servants, waited by the oven for a long time, and then had to withdraw from the banquet and disperse.
Wakamatsu saw that the bundle of plum branches was still in place, and he didn't know what to do with it, so he asked Ruoxia for advice. Ruoxia smiled: "Just put it away, and the son will really make a plum branch roast duck another day." So he ordered them to be taken into the storehouse with the rest of the fruit trees of all colors.
