As soon as Jiang Yan and Shen Yu walked out of the Hanging Flower Gate, they met An Yixin, who was about to return to Crouching Tiger Xuan. Although Jiang Yan wanted to listen to An Yixin talk about Lin Qingshan, Shen Yu didn't ask, and An Yixin didn't say either. The three of them got into Jiang Yan's carriage and went straight to Yiyuan.
As soon as An Yixin got off the carriage, he saw a five-story restaurant, resplendent and full of people. A man in his fifties, as fat as a Buddha, greeted him, first saluted Jiang Yu, and then saluted Shen Yu, claiming to be the chief steward of Yiyuan.
The chief steward of Yi Yuan did not lead them into Yi Yuan, but made three bends and two rounds, passed through the door of the moon cave, and entered a rather vast garden.
Small bridges and flowing water are dotted with pavilions and pavilions. Several red-clothed maids shuttled through it.
"You live here?" An Yixin asked Jiang Yan.
"This is also part of Yiyuan, and my residence in the capital is called Qingjiang Garden." Jiang Yan said with a smile.
Lu was timid. An Yixin thought to herself and smiled embarrassedly.
It's not yet noon, and there are no other guests in the garden, so it looks relaxed and elegant, so I think it's a residence. It is estimated that at night, the pavilions and pavilions are lit up, which is another scene.
Seeing An Yixin's embarrassed face, Jiang Yan wanted to laugh very much, and heard Qiuyue say that this little girl grew up in a small town and came to the capital for the first time, of course she had never seen such a place for pleasure.
"Another day, invite Shen Gongzi and the girl to play in Qingjiang Garden." Jiang Yan said with a smile.
No matter how modest Jiang Yan's demeanor is, he is also a dignified prince, An Yixin doesn't know if his residence in Zhou can be regarded as the embassy of Jiang Guo, but such an invitation is still a little heavier.
Shen Yu looked up at Jiang Yan, "If you have a good time here today, we'll go." ”
This answer is really simple, direct and cute.
An Yixin lowered her head and smiled.
"I don't know if you had a good time, but I promise you'll have a good meal today." Jiang Yan said with a smile.
Shen Yu raised his eyebrows.
Jiang Yan glanced at the chief steward.
"Miss Yuedi has sent someone to give instructions early in the morning, and the kitchen has already been prepared." The chief steward said busily.
The Listening Oriole Pavilion is fan-shaped, located in the bend of the small river, and before approaching, I saw two begonia trees, the branches and leaves are like umbrellas, covering most of the Listening Oriole Pavilion.
It would be nice if it was spring when the flowers bloomed. An Yixin thought to herself.
"How did you choose to be here? And there are no flowers. Jiang Yan's face sank.
"Miss Yuedi is afraid that Shen Gongzi doesn't like singing and dancing, so she specially prepared something else." The chief steward said with a smile, raised his hand and patted it.
A group of red-clothed maids walked out, holding a birdcage in their hands, and the chirping of all kinds of small birds in the cage was tactful, and the Yingying Pavilion instantly became vibrant.
"It's interesting." Shen Yu said, took a bamboo stick from the maid's hand, and teased the bird.
A small boat came down the river, and two maids in red on board, one driving the boat and the other lighting the fire. There was a shelf on the side of the boat, and on it was full of pots and basins...... Seafood.
An Yixin swallowed a mouthful of saliva vigorously and involuntarily walked towards the boat. Nima, who hasn't eaten seafood for 14 years.
Barracuda crabs, prawns, clams, conchs, abalone, and a large grouper all look like they have just come up from the sea.
An Yixin's eyes swept over, there were a lot of cooking utensils on the boat, but he didn't see any seasonings.
A man in a green cloth short coat walked out of the path next to him and bowed to Jiang Yan and the others.
"Chef Zhao, today His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has invited a distinguished guest, you have to pay more attention." The chief steward said to the man.
"Don't worry!" Chef Zhao looked to be in his thirties, jumped on the boat with his skills, and said.
An Yixin followed Jiang Yan and Shen Yu into the Tingying Pavilion.
Birds chirp, the boat leans against the shore, and you can see the seafood on the boat from the window of the Oriban.
"The girl said that it was a little cold now, otherwise it would be more interesting to set up a table by the river." The archsteward said.
"This moon flute girl is so ingenious, can you let me see it?" Shen Yu said to Jiang Yan.
"She's not here, she's the chief steward of Qingjiang Garden, and you'll be able to see Qingjiang Garden one day." Jiang Yan said with a smile.
Shen Yu turned his head to look at An Yixin, "Let's go to Qingjiang Garden tomorrow?" ”
"Aren't you going to the bookstore tomorrow to buy books?" An Yixin reminded.
Buying a book is more important than looking at a girl, Shen Yu hesitated.
"Shen Gongzi wants to go to Qingjiang Garden one day, just send someone to tell me in advance." Jiang Yan said, and glanced at the chief steward, "The best thing in Yiyuan is seafood and river freshness, but although these things are delicious, they are very troublesome to eat, you call two skillful people to come in and serve Shen Gongzi, and then set up a seat next to Shen Gongzi for Miss Yixin." ”
When An Yixin heard that she had set up a seat for herself, she hurriedly smiled and saluted Jiang Yan, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"You're welcome." Jiang Yan said.
I heard you swallowing so loudly just now, okay?
If I don't let you sit down and eat together, you won't hate me to death? Jiang Yan thought with a smile.
The pike crabs were the first to be served, each one was the size of a plate, heavy in the hand, and the fat was thick.
An Yixin watched the two maids help Shen Yu peel the shell and remove the meat, her movements were skillful and light, and she was talking to Shen Yu with a smile, so she could eat it by herself with confidence.
The maid poured her daughter's red, which was extremely hot. An Yixin took a sip and continued to fight with the crab.
An Yixin looked at Shen Yu from time to time while eating, and saw that he drank a glass of wine, and the maid was about to pour it for him again, so she hurriedly reminded, "Crabs are cold, you can drink, just drink slowly." ”
Shen Yu nodded and raised his glass to Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan smiled and raised his glass and drank it all.
The steamed crab is followed by steamed abalone, then steamed grouper, and steamed conch.
Everything is tender and fat, and steamed to the right temperature.
All the dipping sauce is shredded ginger with soy sauce and vinegar.
An Yixin couldn't help but owe in her seat and looked at the boat through the window.
There is a large pot on the stove, and Chef Zhao is preparing steamed clams.
An Yixin swallowed a mouthful of saliva again, forget it, it's okay to steam the clams, as long as he doesn't steam the prawns so directly, there is no need to say anything.
Jiang Yan looked at An Yixin looking out the window, swallowed another mouthful of saliva, and couldn't help but smile secretly in her heart, this little girl is really greedy, eating from the bowl, and looking at the pot.
The chief steward walked in, "Prince, the front kitchen said that a shipload of goods had just arrived, and there were a few big and fresh squid, and I asked if I wanted to try them?" ”
"Then take two and hand them over to the ship." Jiang Yan said.
"Wait." Thinking of the beloved street food back then, An Yixin blurted out. There will definitely be no other way to do it on this ship except steaming or steaming.
"Don't want to eat?" Jiang Yan asked, looking at the mountain-like pile of shells in front of An Yixin, "Still can't eat it?" ”
Being asked like this, An Yixin subconsciously straightened her waist, well, she did eat enough. But the big squid, the big squid that I haven't seen for many years, how can I not eat it?
"I want to ask first, how does Chef Zhao like to make squid?" An Yixin said with a smile.
"Steamed, of course." There was no need to send someone to ask, through the window, An Yixin heard Chef Zhao say loudly with confidence and as a matter of course.
