Chapter 69: The Whole Sheep Feast
The afternoon training was only archery, but whether it was Lian Zhong Sanyuan or the arrow blossomed, except for Luo Xiang'er, the results of the others were very unsatisfactory. So, after another period of hard training, the two doctors ended with the conclusion of "today is just a warm-up, and tomorrow we will start to increase the amount of training".
Although everyone was hit hard at the end of the day, they were quickly diluted by the joy of being able to eat the whole sheep feast immediately. When several carriages stopped in front of the gate of Ran Mansion, the six young men quickly got off the carriage and walked in with Ran You in front.
The Ran family is a famous Fu family in Qingzhou State, and the patriarch is Ran You's grandfather, a famous Fu Gu master.
Luo Xiang'er looked at the simple buildings along the way, but there were pavilions and corridors, and there was no lack of freshness and ease, and she was also happy with the elegance of the literati and craftsmen like the master's family. Walking slowly to a terrace by the edge of a pond, the group sat down on either side of a ten-meter-long table.
Yang Jie began to shout: "I'm hungry, when can I serve food!" Since there were no elders there, everyone laughed without hesitation. You said in front of everyone a few days ago that you were going to have a dinner, when was it? Huang Yaomin grinned and said with six white teeth. Yang Jie slapped his thigh: "I meant to invite Luo Xiang'er, I didn't say to invite you." Ran You lowered his eyebrows and said regretfully: "It's a pity, there is no me." Song Xiuwen waved his hand: "The listener has a share, you ask Xiang'er to accompany us!" Wang Shi made a final decision with an expressionless face: "It's decided!" Yang Jie looked at these people and had no choice but to admit it: "That's okay, I'll go to my house for dinner after school in three days." ”
After laughing for a while, the maids began to serve the food like water. There is no partition system, and the eighteen dishes are neatly arranged on the center line of the long table. Six maids each stood behind a guest, ready to serve and fetch food.
At this time, a man in his thirties who looked like Ran You walked in, Ran You quickly got up and called "father", and everyone also got up to say hello. Ran You's father said with a smile: "All students are very welcome, please eat and play well, and if you have time in the future, you can come to Ran You at any time to play, he is very happy to become friends with you." Ran You lowered his head embarrassedly, and Huang Yaomin responded on behalf of everyone: "Uncle, don't worry, even if you are friends, you will often come and go, and we will also invite Ran You to our house as a guest." Three days later, Yang Jie had a treat, and hoped that his uncle would allow Ran You to get together with us. "Absolutely. If the dish is cold, it will affect the taste, you eat more, I will leave first if I have something to do. "Uncle walks slowly."
Luo Xiang'er turned back to the maid behind her and said, "This sister, please help me take a small plate of each dish, take a bowl of mutton soup, add a small spoon of white pepper and a small spoon of green vinegar, and then you can go back to rest." The others did the same, and soon the dishes were finished, and the maids left. The atmosphere immediately became casual again.
Luo Xiang'er listened to their laughter while seriously tasting the whole sheep feast. The first course: welcome fan, that is, the tip of the braised sheep's ears; The second course: open Taicang, that is, fried lamb's eye meat; The third course: fragrant scarlet lips, which is steamed lamb lip meat; The fourth dish: falling into the water spring, that is, mixed lamb tongue; The fifth dish: fried phoenix tail, which is stir-fried lamb kidney. Luo Xiang'er tasted this in one go, and finally nodded, the first four of the five dishes were decent, but this fried phoenix tail was handled properly, the heat was accurate, not fishy, crispy and delicious.
Next, Luo Xianger finished tasting these eighteen dishes in one go, and found two more outstanding dishes: braised lamb's tendons with bright red color, soft and smooth, mellow and fragrant; The tendons are fragrant, and slightly tough, salty and fresh in the sweet taste of the sheep's trotters. This whole sheep banquet made her fully aware of the cooking level of this world, and it seems that if she has the opportunity to open a store to make money in the future, it will be very promising!
