Chapter 41 A Guest
Both of them smiled after hearing this, after all, they knew best how much delicious food they bought in that basket. So the two of them saluted and thanked them again and again, and then ran to report the good news to the rest of the handymen.
Dong Rong changed into a half-worn coarse cloth shirt, dipped it in water and swiped her forehead hair, and then tied a big apron and began to cut and wash the preparation materials. The stupid pillar chopped a lot of firewood, and went to the mountain spring to carry two buckets of water, and finally sat at the door of the stove and was ready to help.
The weather was already hot, and there was no smoke exhaust in the stove room, but in an hour, Dong Rong was so busy sweating profusely that the stupid pillar pulled her sleeve to wipe it for her, but she didn't know where the sleeve was stained with dust, but instead wiped his little daughter-in-law with a big face.
Dong Rong slapped him in disgust, causing him to laugh non-stop. Dong Rong washed his face with water and put the braised pork that needed the most heat into the pot, boiled for a quarter of an hour, and then handed it over to Silly Zhu to add firewood and slowly simmered it over low heat. She spread out the dried tofu slices cut into two inches on the cutting board, and then put the various vegetables and fried meat sauce that had been blanched in neatly into it, rolled it into a roll and cut oblique knife, put it vertically into a disc and put it into a fan shape, and finally found a green and transparent radish to carve it into the shape of a singing bird, and a plate of beautiful and refreshing peacocks was ready.
Dong Rong moved the plate left and right, and felt that she was quite satisfied, so she cut off the skin of the fried fried tofu, hollowed out the inner core, and then carefully filled it with the black fungus, green pepper, and broken eggs cut in advance.
was so busy, the braised pork was already simmered, and she quickly put it out and put it in a large clay pot and covered it tightly. Then brush the pot and pour a small half of the vegetable oil, the three-inch-long small yellow croaker has been marinated for half an hour in advance, then hang the paste made by mixing eggs and flour, put it in the hot room and roll it a few times, and each of them will wear a very beautiful "golden armor"...
I don't know when, the rich smell of meat sneaked out from the door of the stove, and was sent far away by the mountain wind, which provoked the handymen working under the mountain to raise their heads and move their noses to sniff. One of the young descendants couldn't hold back his greed, and asked Zhao Qingshan in a low voice, "Brother Qingshan, what kind of meat dish do our hosts want to enjoy at noon, do you have fat slices?" The last time I ate meat was during the Chinese New Year, and I can't even remember the taste of meat. â
The rest of the people also chimed in, "That's right, I heard that a few of the companies that sell ice bowls in the city are doing well now, and there is often meat to eat on the dinner table, and they are all rewarded by the owner." Isn't our owner also in charge of the ice business, maybe we can also let everyone satisfy their hunger. â
Zhao Qingshan put down the hoe in his hand, coughed twice with the shelf, and then said, "Work hard, the owner won't treat everyone badly." â
Everyone was a little disappointed and continued to be busy with unhappiness. Seeing this, Zhao Qingshan slowly added, "However, in the morning, the owner ordered me to buy more than a dozen catties of pork belly." I can't put away the fresh meat at this time! â
After speaking earlier, he blinked, and then suddenly cheered, "Haha, there are really big slices of meat to eat at noon!" â
Everyone was also smiling, smacking their mouths and sucking saliva. Seeing this, Zhao Qingshan also knew that everyone had no intention of doing work anymore, so he waved his hand and said, "Seeing that it's noon, everyone should rest, if you miss the work, you can rush more in the afternoon." â
When they heard this, they put away their utensils and began to climb up the mountain, as if they could eat a large slice of meat sooner if they were a little closer to the stove.
Zhao Qingshan's self-esteem was unusual, and he followed behind with a hoe slowly, not wanting to see Dr. Feng, who lived in the east of the village, walking out of the path in the middle of the fruit forest with a little medicine boy as soon as he walked to the mountainside. He hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said with a smile, "Doctor Feng, is this going up the mountain to collect medicine?" â
Doctor Feng smiled kindly and nodded in response, "Yes, there are not many medicinal materials at home, come out for a walk." It just so happened that yesterday the pillar was clamoring for me to drink, so I turned around. â
Zhao Qingshan was stunned, and then he understood why the owner was busy buying a banquet early in the morning, and it turned out that Silly Zhu wanted to entertain Old Doctor Feng. In this way, instead of being as lazy as he guessed when gossiping to everyone, the proprietor took it very seriously, otherwise he would not have spent so much money because of his jokes. Fortunately, he never dared to snub the stupid pillar regardless of his predecessors and successors, otherwise he would have been known by the owner, and the errand would definitely not be able to keep it.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly bowed down and asked Doctor Feng's master and servant to go up the mountain, looking very respectful, and even the small medicine basket on Qingfeng's shoulder was taken by him.
Silly Zhu estimated that the hour was almost up, and he was already standing at the end of the mountain road and waiting. Sure enough, he soon saw Zhao Qingshan accompanying Old Feng up, he hurriedly strode forward and said with a smile, "Old Man Feng, if you don't come again, the braised pork will be eaten up by me." â
"I smelled the smell of meat in Nanshan, and I knew that you kid had a big appetite, so I hurriedly ran over to grab a bowl." Dr. Feng also laughed, and finally sat down under the pergola covered with vines to rest.
Dong Rong also took off her apron when she heard the movement, tidied up her clothes a little, and came out with tea to entertain guests.
Doctor Feng usually heard interesting stories about Dong Rong from the mouths of the teenagers in Group A, and guessed in his heart that this woman didn't know how beautiful and lovely she was. Now that he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but brush his beard and nod his head again and again.
Although there is no appearance of a country and a city, the face is like a full moon, the hall is wide and flat, the nose is straight and the lips are thick, this is the appearance of a full Wangfu and a prosperous son. In particular, a pair of eyes are extremely clear and bright, which means that this woman is decisive and calculating. If the stupid pillar is really a peasant son, with this woman as his wife, he will definitely be smooth and rich for the rest of his life. But he will inherit that position in the future, and when the time comes, this woman and that man will meet and I don't know what will happen...
The old man was thinking about his heart like this, and he didn't speak for a long time, which made Dong Rong think that he was on a business trip somewhere. She glanced down at her dress, shoes and socks without a trace, and when she saw that there was nothing wrong, she generously stepped forward to put down the teapot, smiled and made a junior salute, and said softly, "Doctor Feng is fine, I usually listen to the pillar mention your old care for him, and it is really an honor for our young couple to invite Dr. Feng to come to the door today." The little woman rectified a few crude foods, and hoped that Dr. Feng would not dislike them. â
Old Man Feng came back to his senses, coughed embarrassedly, and hurriedly responded, "Sister Rong, don't be polite, just call the old man my uncle." The pillar also helps me collect medicine on weekdays, and I should thank him. I haven't seen him walk around the village all these days, and I, an old man, have been bored, so I have come up to the mountains to beg for a drink, which has made you tired. â
Old Man Feng looked kind, and his clothes were different from those of ordinary peasant families, he was very clean and tidy, and he spoke slowly and softly, which was very comfortable to listen to. Dong Rong almost immediately fell in love with such an elder, so he called "Uncle Feng" very simply, poured good tea for him with his own hands, and then patted a handful of www.biquge.info pillars in the heart of the Wuzi Eating Pen Fun Pavilion and asked him to accompany the guests well, and only then did he enter the stove room and continue to be busy.
Old Man Feng took a sip of tea with a smile, and enjoyed the scenery for a long time, then turned to the disciple who looked slightly uneasy and smiled, "Heaven is merciful, if you lose the east, you will definitely receive mulberry elm." Mrs. Cao bought you a little daughter-in-law for the sake of face, but I didn't expect it to be a rare good woman, you kid are blessed! â
Murong Huaide has been hanging in his heart for a long time, he doesn't want to delve into why he cares so much about Mr.'s opinion of Dong Rong, and his intuition is hoping that she can get Mr.'s approval. Hearing this at this time, he couldn't help but have a smile on his face, and replied gently, "Thank you, sir." â
Old Man Feng remembered that when the two first met, his little disciple was still a seven or eight-year-old child, as if in a blink of an eye, the child had become an eight-foot high-spirited man, with outstanding knowledge and morality, and now he was even starting a family, but he was dying. The years are truly magical and ruthless!
Murong Huaide saw that the old man's face was a little gloomy, and thought that he remembered the old things with that person, so he hurriedly found some interesting things to talk about on weekdays to relieve his boredom. The old man also admitted his feelings, and he laughed non-stop.
Soon, Dong Rong picked up the tea set again, and instead brought out the carefully cooked dishes. Old Man Feng also traveled to many places when he was young, and he considered himself a well-informed person. He can't boast that he has tasted the world's food, but he is definitely not unheard of.
But at this time, the dishes served by the apprentice's daughter-in-law are very novel and special in terms of appearance, color, and aroma. The old man didn't see it, he first raised his chopsticks and took a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth, the piece of meat almost melted in his mouth, and he didn't need to chew it for a while, and the fat with a rich aroma slipped directly into his throat. The old man couldn't help but eat three pieces in a row, and then he praised it loudly.
Dong Rong was also a little proud in his heart, speaking of which, this Great Qi Kingdom was just a fork in the road of time and space after the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, and the level of cooking dishes was still at the stage where he had just learned how to fry and fry, which was 108,000 miles worse than the various methods in the previous life.
Although she is not a gourmet, she has worked as a handyman in the back kitchen of the restaurant for two years, and she has become a so-so chef with half stealing and half learning. If Silly Zhu wanted to feast the emperor, she might still be a little timid, but if she invited a village doctor to drink, she asked herself if she could still do it perfectly.
"Uncle Feng, when you are old, it is better to eat less greasy meat. Come, you can try this peacock opening screen and colorful tofu box, which are good dishes to cool off the heat and relieve fever. There is also this dry-fried yellow croaker, which is the best to serve with wine. Dong Rong took a pair of clean chopsticks, smiled and said as she gave Old Man Feng vegetables.
The old man did not refuse to come, and he had to praise every time he tasted it, and at the end he shouted to the little medicine boy who swallowed saliva on the side, "Qingfeng, quickly bring me the wine jar in the medicine basket!" At the moment of food, how can there be no good wine? â
Dong Rong originally wanted to say that she had prepared bud grain wine, but when she looked up and saw the blue and white wine jar painted on a white background in Qingfeng's hand, she quickly swallowed her words. The wine jar is already so exquisite, presumably the wine inside is even rarer, and her jar of bad wine that is only worth 500 wen is still kept for entertaining the handymen.
Silly Zhu took the wine jug, poured a full cup for Feng Lao with a smile, and poured a full bowl when it was his turn, and the distressed Old Man Feng's beard trembled. Dong Rong secretly snickered, relieved to leave the stupid pillar to accompany the guests, and then retired to the stove with a stack of large pottery bowls and a large basin of braised pork.
Zhao Qingshan and the others were afraid of delaying the hospitality of the main family, so they had been hiding in the shadow of the tree behind the house to enjoy the shade. Suddenly, Dong Rong was called, so they walked out with a twisted face.
Dong Rong stuffed a big bowl of braised pork into Zhao Qingshan's hand first, and said with a smile, "It's been hard work for everyone these days, it just so happens that there are many dishes to be prepared today, so let's try it fresh." â
Zhao Qingshan really didn't expect the owner to be so generous, how could such a big bowl of meat have half a catty. He stared at the big piece of meat in the bowl, his tongue was a little straight, and he reluctantly excused himself, "Boss, everyone has a bowl of vegetarian dishes to eat, this meat... There's too much meat for that. â
Dong Rong's subordinates continued to fill the bowl and divide the meat, and said with a smile nonchalantly, "Brother Zhao, don't be polite, as long as everyone does their work well, and the garden gets the money, I can't say that they will eat meat every day." Hurry up and take it home, you can still catch up for lunch at home." âZM
