Chapter 83: Eating Shrimp Causes Trouble
Ye Fengmian caught up with Shi Changpu, and when he saw Shi Changpu's calm face, he was sure that he didn't panic, and the heart he was carrying was put down.
Shi Changpu was anxious to see Yu Tao, and took Ye Fengmian back to Ye Jia's house, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw that someone had sent a lot of fresh shrimp to put there.
Yeda looked at her with his eyes, as if he still wanted to ask what was going on: "This, the little old man didn't hear the instructions inside, but the last time the lady was the official banquet for the eldest young master, it was already against the rules of filial piety, how could he hold a banquet easily." I don't know what's wrong with these people, these used to be bought and eaten by the old man, but they sent them back, put it down and left, and said that the master loves to eat this, and I think the young master will love to eat it. ”
"Brother Xian, you are not an official in vain, this is a gift!" Shi Changpu smiled on the side.
This is a small Jiupin sesame official, and it is difficult for someone to give a gift, and it is difficult for this gift-giver.
"I've already reported Ding's worries, and they sent it for nothing! Let's see who sent it, and it is not easy for people to get up early and be greedy for darkness. Ye Fengmian hurriedly asked Ye Da to go and see who it was.
Ye Da took the gift slip to Ye Fengmian, Ye Fengmian smiled when he saw it, Shi Changpu saw her smile, and when he hurriedly took the gift slip from her hand to see, it turned out to be Lord Zhizhou Wang and several officials under him, these people don't send the silver back, I'm afraid that if they send it, they won't accept it.
"What kind of luck have I gone, even the official gave me a gift, how can I repay this gift?" Ye Fengmian looked at Shi Changpu helplessly, their family had never been an official, and she really didn't understand anything about officialdom.
"They won't give you gifts for nothing, just listen to what they have to do, and send them in to make them into delicious dishes, I'm really hungry for this." Shi Changpu looked at the sea shrimp that was beating vigorously and was bigger than a palm, and his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.
"Do you know that they won't send it for nothing, and you dare to eat it?" Ye Fengmian looked at Shi Changpu puzzled, how could this always upright person be greedy today?
Shi Changpu pointed to those living creatures and asked her: "You are just a shrimp-sized official, they can do everything you can, what can they ask you?" I think it's because the person who recommended you at the beginning has a lot of ability, and they are just currying favor, but now you can't even find this recommended person, they gave it away for nothing, we don't eat it for nothing, don't waste things, this is real seafood. ”
Ye Fengmian is going to look at his senior brother again this time, when did he start to learn to be slippery.
Shi Changpu saw that she was still looking at herself hesitantly, and laughed: "You don't have to be afraid, such a gift, they don't dare to rob it without paying the silver, and when they have something at home, you also have to follow it, this is the exchange of courtesies, you see what I do, let people carry it in, let's drink it when it's cooked, this thing can't be put away, it's delicious when it's fresh." ”
Ye Da listened to him say this on the side, and the walnut lines on his face opened with a smile, this is earned by the eldest young master as an official master, how can he not send it in: "Young master, I just got some plums from an acquaintance, do you want to eat this shrimp, the master loves to eat like this." ”
What, eat shrimp with plums, what is this way to eat?
I heard that the night master eats shrimp and wants to eat plums, and Ye Fengmian and Shi Changpu are all there.
Seeing that they all looked at themselves in surprise, Yeda was a little hairy: "Yes, the master always eats like this, he said that it is best to eat the things in these water with vinegar, but this plum is better than that vinegar!" ”
Shi Changpu was a little anxious, and hurriedly asked him if the night master often eats this, and the night was even more dizzy when he asked, he didn't know what he was saying wrong, so he had to tell the truth, the night master has eaten this shrimp almost every day for the past two years, and he must eat a few plums every time, even if there are no fresh plums, he also has to get a few sour fruits to eat, only to say that it is delicious and appetizing.
Shi Changpu didn't say a word this time, and pulled Ye Fengmian to leave, making the monk who was the second monk of the night big puzzled, and only asked in the back if those shrimp still had to be put in the kitchen? Shi Changpu turned around and promised him that it was okay to send it, and it was okay to share it with everyone, but it was necessary to leave double portions for the two of them, and Yeda smiled and nodded, it seems that there are shrimp to eat today.
When Ye Fengmian and Shi Changpu came back, the shrimp had already been delivered, and they had a large portion here, and the second wife looked at the shrimp on the plate in a daze, and when she saw them coming in, she hurriedly put away the dark clouds on her face and asked everyone to sit down and eat.
Yu Tao scalded the wine, and set up wine and cloth dishes for everyone on the side, Shi Changpu found that Yingxue was not there, and when he asked, he saw that Yu Tao's eyes were red, and he couldn't help but be taken aback, and after hearing her finish talking about Yingxue's death, Shi Changpu stared at Ye Fengmian with his eyes, and wanted to say something, it can be seen that the second wife is here, and it is not good to say much, so he only asked Yu Tao to bring the wine and sit down to eat together.
Ye Fengmian saw Shi Changpu's resentful gaze, and knew that he was blaming himself for not taking good care of Yu Tao, and he was even more angry that Qu Lian had nothing to do and caused these things, but the matter had passed, and it was useless to say more.
While eating, she looked at the second wife, and saw that she was just staring blankly and not moving her chopsticks, so she couldn't help but ask her what was wrong.
The second wife said with tears in her eyes: "Your father used to love to eat shrimp in the sea, but he was stingy and always reluctant, and every time he ate it, he also tasted it carefully with this wine......
Seeing that she missed her father, Ye Fengmian felt heartache, and the chopsticks in her hand slowed down.
"I heard that the night master has to eat this shrimp every time he eats it, is this true?" The chopsticks in Shi Changpu's hand also stopped, looked at the face of the second wife and asked her.
The second wife frowned: "Who are you listening to, I have followed him for so many years, and I have never seen him eat like this." I've heard that this shrimp is a little poisonous, and it is a cool thing, so you can only eat it with hot things, how can you eat it with fruits? ”
Yu Tao also looked at Shi Changpu strangely, she was also strange, he and Ye Fengmian had both read the "Emperor's Inner Canon", this truth should be understood, who did he listen to, the night master would eat like this.
At this time, she hugged Feng Fan and asked an old mother to bring a basket of plums, and as soon as she came in, she smiled and said, "We have thanked the eldest young master for the deliciousness first, and sent some plums to fill in some chews for you here." ”
When the people in the room heard that she was sending plums, they all looked at her with wide eyes in surprise.
