Chapter 92: Grilled Shrimp
It didn't take long, and the joy of the good news had spread to every corner of the Ouyang family, although they had not yet been instructed to put up lights, but everyone's faces were full of joy, and even their steps were much brisker.
"Master, do you see where we are going to the Baojia Restaurant, how many people are going to be invited, and how do you draw up this list?"
Compared with Tan's joy, Ouyang Jin felt that he was much calmer, "What are you panicking about?" Wait until the emperor list officially comes out. However, you can go to the restaurant first to book a place, and save time for people to occupy. Remember to order a better troupe, and the dishes should be good, don't be stingy. ”
"Yes." Tan had never agreed so happily, and the long tail note was full of pride and joy that could not be dissolved, but he wiped away his tears in an instant, "It's really not easy for Zhuang'er to survive three and five times over the years." ”
Ouyang Jin glanced at her slightly, "A loving mother has many defeated children, how can she be a master if she doesn't suffer hardships?" A little hard work, what is there to say? ”
Tan Shi understood, and immediately smiled, "It's all because the old man Su used to teach well." ”
Hmm-Ouyang Jin elongated his nasal voice at this time, which was a lot more comfortable.
But if you think about it, it is really not easy for my son to get the top 300 out of thousands of people this time. I think that although he also studied back then, to speak a word of conscience, he really didn't work as hard as his son, and this official was relatively smooth. Back then, Ouyang's father was an official of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but later resigned and did not do it, and recommended his children to join the company according to the usual practice, and it was Ouyang Jin's turn. At that time, the new wife Cui's maiden family was still very powerful, and he came to the capital with a letter and entered the job smoothly.
Then there was political turmoil. The Cui family lost power, and they were anxious that no one would rely on them. happened to have his wife dead, so he hurriedly married Tan. Although not as prominent as Cui's, he is a local snake and has local connections. So he still relied on his wife, although Ouyang Jin, the official was not big, he had been safe and steady until the collapse of the previous dynasty, and then defected to the new dynasty.
As soon as the new dynasty was established, there was another unexpected joy, and his wife's mother's family had a good sister, and she became prominent all of a sudden. Even with him, he was promoted three levels from the petty official of the eighth grade. to today's from the sixth grade.
However, it is still a little smaller.
At the very least, Ouyang Jin felt that he was much stronger than Lu Zhengming, who was full of fat brains and had a stomach full of wine, if he had the opportunity to climb to his position, run forward, and stay up to Jiuqing, then he could be regarded as truly entering the power core of the Great Liang Dynasty.
Thinking in his heart, his eyes fell on the slightly narrow doors and windows. quickly looked away in disgust, such a small broken house is not even convenient to invite a guest to set up a drink, who wants to live in the future?
Now that his son is out, he can only add some light to the house. It will not bring any immediate practical benefits, but it is just the opportunity to set up a banquet and bring the eldest son out of the city. I believe that he has helped. You'll get more help on your own.
Thinking of this, Ouyang Jin only felt three points better from his illness. I couldn't make it all over, so I immediately called the housekeeper. "Did I ask you to make the clothes for the eldest young master?"
The housekeeper said truthfully, "I have already sent it to do, but the eldest young master ordered Sister Mu to ...... first."
"There is no need to say more about those words, just tell the tailor shop, hurry up and get out of the clothes of the eldest young master first. I'm going to take him to meet in a few days, but I can't be sloppy! ”
Tan Shi was unhappy when he heard this, "Master, it was Zhuang'er who passed the exam this time, did you make a mistake?" ”
Women's homes, just don't know! Ouyang Jin didn't bother to say more to her, "Then add two sets to the second young master, by the way, the eldest young master's ornaments must also be prepared with a new set, don't be sloppy in the slightest!" ”
Seeing that his focus was still on Ouyang Kang, Tan's anger added another layer. But the next person also came to report, "The eldest lady said that she would invite the eldest young master and Sister Mu to go out for dinner in the evening, even if it was to give them a pick-up, the second young master was also invited." ”
This damn girl! Tan felt that he was about to faint again.

"The best thing that this Hongxing Building does is the fish, shrimp and crab, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is best to come here to eat steamed crab in small cage and fresh crab in sauce. It's just too expensive, and there are too many people in line. But it's still a little early to eat crabs, so I'll invite you to eat his grilled prawns, which are also very famous. By the way, did you eat the crabs I asked my aunt to send back that day? ”
Nianfu and Ouyang Kang glanced at each other, and felt that this Miss Ouyang was really a wonderful person.
It's not because of her appearance, in fact, frankly speaking, her facial features are not ugly when they are taken apart, but they are all kinds of awkward when they are put together, and they can't even be talked about beautiful, so they can only be said to be not unsightly.
However, this woman's personality is really wonderful, and I don't know how to develop such a self-cooked temperament, after chatting with Nianfu for an afternoon, she was very enthusiastic and pulled them out to eat under the banner of picking them up and washing the dust.
Looking at her enthusiastic appearance, Ouyang Kang was deeply suspicious, this sister really didn't use them as a pretense to find an excuse to go out to play?
But even if Ouyang Mulan is going out to play by herself, Nianfu is willing to come out with her, God knows how much she wants to go out? Especially at night! And she had already told the eldest lady when she was chatting with her, and after a while, she would continue to be the east and take them to the night market.
Roar, God-given Miss Mulan, bless you on behalf of the god of fire!
With a cup of tea, four delicate white dishes with red-roasted prawns were delivered.
There are only two in one plate, but each shrimp is more than three inches long, and it is roasted to a ruddy and shiny color, and the aroma is tangy.
Ouyang Mulan demonstrated that she washed her hands in the water where the chrysanthemums were put on hold, and then peeled them with her hands, "Some people are particular about peeling them, cutting them into small slices and eating them, but if you really want to eat happily, it is better to eat them with your hands." You won't dislike it, will you? ”
How so?
Nianfu reached out and grabbed it. First habitually picked up one and studied it, this is said to be roasted, in fact, it should be fried in oil, and then cooked in sauce, it should be called braised prawns.
Try the sauce first, well, it's a good mix.
But why didn't this shrimp see the open edge on its back? So how do you take the shrimp glands? Nian Fu was about to peel it off for further in-depth understanding, when he suddenly heard Ouyang Kang take a bite, frowning and spitting out a mouthful of shrimp meat.
"Oops, I forgot to say it." Ouyang Mulan looked at her beautiful brother with a little surprise, "This shrimp has a sand bag on its tail, and it can't be eaten." ”
Ouyang Kang glanced at Nianfu suspiciously, "I remember that you also made shrimp before, why didn't you see sand?" ”
Nian Fubai glanced at him, "That's all I picked out one by one, okay?" She carefully peeled off her shrimp flesh and tore off a long strip of meat from her back, revealing a black gut, "Look, this is the shrimp gland, which is what she called the sand sac." ”
"I'll see, I'll see." Ouyang Mulan came over, and then showed a look of admiration, "Yes, why are you so good at eating?" I've been eating it for years, and I haven't found you doing this. Is it possible to get the sandbag out of this way? Oops, no, it's broken. ”
"Of course it will break, because this intestine is easy to pick when it is raw, and it can't be cooked." Nianfu casually summoned the guy and pointed to the bare black shrimp intestine on his hand, "What's going on in your shop?" How can you make shrimp without picking sand bags? How else can people eat this? Hurry up and get a new plate! ”
The guy was stunned, and then looked at her strangely, "Sister, I'm afraid I'm joking, right?" How can you pick a sand bag to make shrimp? How many years have we done Hongxing Building, but it's all like this! ”
Seeing that he looked like you don't want to find fault, Nianfu was also a little angry, "What you said is strange, how can you make shrimp without picking shrimp glands, how many years have you said you have been doing it, is this how you cheat customers?" ”
"Hiccup, how did you talk to this sister? Finding fault? ”
"Am I not right?" Nian Fu was really angry.
I wanted to make another noise, but a figure stood in front of her, glared at her unhappily, turned to the guy and said, "You're just a guy, I won't tell you, go, call your shopkeeper!" ”
To say that although Ouyang Dashao is handsome, once he puts on his face, he is still very powerful, at least much more lethal than a little girl like Nianfu.
The guy was stunned by him for a moment, and muttered and left, Ouyang Mulan only reacted at this time, and said hurriedly, "Big brother, you may really misunderstand, this is how shrimp are made here, and there has never been any sand bag that Sister Mu said." ”
Is this a custom? Nianfu glanced at the black shrimp intestines again, and was a little lacking in confidence. However, Ouyang Dashao said, "Even if it was like this before, is that right?" You also said that grilled prawns are a famous dish here, and since they are famous dishes, they must not be cheap, right? But is it reasonable to eat sand with such things that are not cheap? ”
Right! Nianfu's confidence in falling down in an instant rose back, "In the past, people still drank blood, that's right?" ”
Ouyang Mulan looked at the two of them singing one after another in a daze, and suddenly felt that it was better for her not to speak. Obviously, Ouyang Zhuang also meant the same.
After a while, the shopkeeper came, and brought a few guys. looked like a very shrewd middle-aged man, and when he entered the door, he hugged his fists and saluted, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I've already heard about it." Are a few people dissatisfied because the shrimp in the small shop didn't pick sand bags? If so, then I'm sorry, because that's how shops have always done it. It's not just for you at the table, if you don't believe me, please see. ”
He waved back, and a guy suddenly peeled off a prawn that was also cooked, and sure enough, there were shrimp glands, and it was the same if he picked another one. After the third one, the shopkeeper said, "I think everyone has seen it, right?" If you don't believe me, you can ask our regular customers to see if this is the case. Of course, this is not one of our stores, I am standing here today, dare to say a word, the whole capital, except for the emperor's imperial dining room, I don't know, but these large and small restaurants really don't pick sand bags. If so, you can come to me. ”
Although he said politely, there was a domineering attitude in his demeanor that could not be concealed, as if we were such a rule here, and you ignored it.
(It's been a little year, I almost forgot.) It's been a good day...... ORL is in the dark and ready to deal with the various situations of the New Year. Will it be the first or second watch, will you be too busy to watch? (To be continued......)
