Chapter 423: No. 4 in Area A
Rong Qiu finally stood still at this time and said with a smile: "Sister, this is it." ”
Rong Xi glanced at the stone plaque, which read: No. 4 in District A.
The British princess looked around and smiled, "It's chic here, and it's the first time I've been here." ”
Rong Qiu smiled and nodded at Yahuan, who understood, stepped forward, held a lantern in one hand, and gently pushed the door of the courtyard with the other.
Everyone looked inside, the ground in the courtyard had been changed to moon-white jade, there was a slight roughness, it should be to prevent slipping, the humidity in the air was more obvious, and there was a faint smell of sulfur, and there was a moon gate over there, and there was a steaming heat rising from the moon gate.
Rong Qiu took a step forward and said to Rong Xi and Princess Ying: "Sister, fourth sister-in-law, please come in." ”
Everyone walked in, sure enough, the stone table and the stone bench were all very chic, the stone table was made into a huge flower shape, the petals opened outward, and a transparent crystal board was placed on it, which could not only put things, but also could clearly see the flower shape below, and the small stone bench was made into the shape of a flower bud, hanging down slightly, and a leaf together, so that people could sit on it.
Although the courtyard is small and the room doesn't look big, it is exquisite, and everything is thoughtful, which is indeed good.
Hearing a movement outside the door, two people came out of a small kitchen, both of them were mothers-in-law in their forties, wearing the same clothes, neatly cleaned up, and walked up to everyone and said, "Welcome to all distinguished guests." ”
Rong Qiu waved his hand and said, "That's it, do you want everything you have prepared ready?" ”
"Okay, ladies and gentlemen, please come into the house and wait, and the slaves and maids will serve the medicinal food on the table." The two mothers-in-law said.
"Sister, fourth sister-in-law, let's go in." Rong Qiu smiled.
"It's okay, I feel a little hungry just by smelling this aroma," Princess Ying said as she walked in with Rong Xi.
Rong Xi smiled and nodded, she glanced at the two mothers-in-law a few times, but didn't say anything, and entered the room with Princess Ying.
There are all kinds of things used for bathing and cleansing in the room, as well as silk bathrobes, which look very good in texture, and those things are extremely neatly placed in trays one by one, and it can be seen that they are taken care of.
Rong Xi and the others sat down, and the two mothers-in-law walked in, each with a tray in their hands, and a white porcelain clay pot on it, which was steaming hot, and the tempting aroma wafted in an instant, making people can't help but move their index fingers.
The two mothers-in-law put the crockpot on the table, the soup in the jar is milky white, and the aroma is getting stronger and stronger, one of them said: "Distinguished guests, this can is the cloud silk ham stewed pigeon, this cloud silk is the best cloud silk produced in the deep sea of Dongjiang, especially after making the soup delicious, the pigeon is raised by the Rong family's manor, and the feeding is the food mixed with precious medicinal materials, which is used to cook when it grows to two months, the time is not long or short, the meat is tender and not firewood, and it is also the most nourishing for the woman's body." ”
Rong Qiu's smile was a little vain in the water vapor of this soup, she turned her eyes and said softly: "Sister, sister really doesn't know that raising a pigeon can be so famous, it seems that this thing is indeed precious and rare." ”
Rong Xi ignored what she said, and just asked the woman casually: "This medicinal diet is good to listen to, and it is also in line with the princess's thoughts, but how did you know that you are going to make this medicinal diet?" Or do you do it every time a guest comes? ”
The woman gave a salute and said, "No, because there are a few herbs in this medicinal meal, which are only suitable for women, so...... If it's a male guest, don't do this. ”
"Oh, I see," Rong Xi nodded, his eyes turned slightly, and he saw the slight stiff smile on Rong Qiu's face, Rong Qiu secretly hated in his heart, Rong Xi asked in front of people, it was clear that he didn't believe her, but ...... Can she Rongqiu be stupid enough to put something in her meal?
What's more, these mothers-in-law are all from the villa, how can they command them to move? Even if you spend money to buy it out, if something goes wrong, isn't it the first one to bite yourself out?
Thinking that things were developing in the direction she expected, she suppressed the anger in her heart slightly, and said with a smile: "Sister, this is a special trip made by my sister early in the morning, and then booked, this thing will stay up for a long time." ”
"Well, I have a heart." Rong Xi said lightly.
"It's good if my sister is satisfied, and it's worth it for my sister to do anything." Rong Qiu immediately said, her smiling face was full of warmth, affection, and a picture of sisterly harmony.
Rong Xi waved his hand and motioned for Xiao'er to serve soup, and Cui'er next to Princess Ying and Xing'er who followed Rong Qiu also stepped forward to serve soup for their respective masters.
The milky white soup was served in an emerald green jade bowl, and the mere look made people feel extremely appetizing, and everyone was drinking the soup, and one of the mothers-in-law said, "Ladies and gentlemen, slow down." ”
Everyone was stunned, and then raised their heads, and the woman took out a small porcelain plate from the tray, which was green powder, and she said: "This is a herb that grows on the seaside of Eastern Xinjiang, only grows in the crevices under the sea stones, the yield is very low, but the aroma is extremely rich and fresh, and it has a different flavor. ”
Everyone's eyes flashed, today's soup is full of freshness, and this special herb, which everyone has never heard of, listening to this woman's words, several girls got the master's signal, and they have used chopsticks to put some of the vanilla powder in the small dish into the bowl.
Sure enough, the aroma in the bowl was as the woman said, adding a bit of umami, fresh and mellow, and the princess smiled and said, "It's really a little different." ”
As soon as Cui'er heard her say this, she took the small plate again and said in a low voice: "Since the princess likes it, then the slave maid will put some more for you." ”
After that, she crossed her fingers and picked up the jade chopsticks, the jade chopsticks are as green as bamboo, the lines are soft, and the skin of her upturned fingers is delicate, like a blooming orchid, which makes people shine.
Rong Xi looked at her hand and said, "This girl's hand is very beautiful, unlike Xiao'er's, it is always a little rough." ”
Princess Ying smiled: "This girl usually likes to mix a flower juice or something, so she likes to try to play, this hand is soft for her to try, it does look better than other girls." ”
"Sister Cui'er, when I have time, I want to ask you for advice, so that I don't have to let my princess say that my hands are so thick that there is no one to look like." Xiao'er raised her eyebrows and said with a smile.
Cui'er hurriedly saluted and said: "Sister Xiao'er laughed, my sister is just idle and foolish, where can I afford my sister's advice." ”
Xing'er also said: "There is a big garden in our Qi Palace, which has many precious flowers and plants, and Mrs. has always loved fragrance and flowers, so the prince said to the gardener in the house that no matter where I heard that there are precious flowers, I will return to him, if it is really rare, I will personally find the door to ask for Mrs. to come." ”
"Xing'er......" Rong Qiu feigned anger to stop, but there was a thick smile at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, but Xing'er pouted: "The slave is just telling the truth, Sister Cui'er, Xing'er will learn from you how to make this flower juice, and when the time comes, my wife will use it to make incense and wash her face, and it won't be counted as those flowers blooming in vain." ”
Rong Qiu covered her lips and smiled and said, "You girl is talking more and more nonsense." ”
Listening to these words, Rong Xi suddenly remembered a modern saying: If you don't do it, you won't die.
She didn't want to listen to the self-praise of these people anymore, took the spoon, and drank the soup, although she was not a gourmet, and she didn't pay much attention to eating, but the taste of this soup was indeed good, which made her eyes shine.
The British princess didn't say anything more, lowered her head and drank the soup, took a sip, and couldn't help sighing: "It's really good, the taste is extremely delicious, and it makes people feel aftertaste." ”
Rong Xi nodded and smiled: "After eating, it is a perfect match with my homemade tea." ”
"Oh?" The British princess became interested, "What kind of tea?" ”
"You'll know when you taste it." Rong Xi deliberately sold a pass.
Rong Qiu saw that the two of them were talking lively, and put her aside, a little embarrassed, so he turned his head and said to the two mothers-in-law: "Okay, go down, go to the hot spring pool and prepare." ”
"Yes." The two mothers-in-law answered the call and turned around and went to the Moon Gate.
After drinking the soup and eating a few pieces of meat, everyone put down the dishes and chopsticks, Rong Xi turned his head and said to Xiao'er: "Go make a pot of tea." ”
"Yes."
"When will my sister make tea? It's the first time my sister has heard of it. Rong Qiu had nothing to say.
"There are many things you don't know," Rong Xi wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and glanced at her lightly, "Many things are changing, how can you look at people with old eyes?" ”
Rong Qiu didn't dare to show a trace of dissatisfaction, although she was already angry in her heart, she secretly gritted her teeth and said, "Yes...... A lot of things are changing, so wait a minute, and let you experience the transition from heaven to hell and see what it feels like! ”
She suppressed the thoughts in her heart, squeezed out a smile and said, "Sister is right." ”
While speaking, Xiao'er brought the tea and slowly poured it into three teacups, the color of the tea was dark red, like a cup of mellow red wine, and the aroma was also a little special, and there seemed to be a slight aroma of stir-fried with a fruity aroma.
The British princess has always loved tea, she picked up the teacup and put it under the tip of her nose and smelled it, "The taste of your tea is special, what's the name?" ”
"The name is second, and the taste is the best," Rong Xi also picked up the teacup and said to her, "Try it." ”
The British princess took two sips, tasted the taste and said, "The taste...... It is thicker than ordinary tea, and the aroma is also elegant and light, which is not bad. ”
"That's good," Rong Xi said, and drank all the tea in the cup, and the princess also drank the cup of tea when she saw this.
Rong Qiu was hesitating whether to drink or not, when a figure flashed at the door, and the woman walked in.
