Jiang Yanxue was noncommittal and rubbed the corners of his forehead. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Yesterday, Er'an was drunk, and it was difficult to send off the guests for our women's family, and when I sat on these, I was really sleepy."
She raised her hand, and a girl with a long face on the side obediently reached over to support her.
"Big lady, Chiju will accompany you back first. At this time, the small kitchen is afraid that the snow clams have been stewed, and the lady just drinks it and rests. ”
Jiang Yanxue laughed again, "The new little chef has a lot of skills, and the soup stewed is delicious, and I want to panic if I don't drink it for a day." ”
The master and servant talked and laughed, and walked to the back room, as if they had forgotten all the people in the front hall.
After taking two steps, Jiang Yanxue seemed to remember something, turned around, and said to Jiang Peiwen, "Go to Jinding Pavilion at noon, and leave me a piece of tranquility." ”
Jiang Peiwen hurriedly got up and lowered his head to "yes".
After Jiang Yanxue left, there were only six women in the front hall, and the atmosphere became awkward again.
Because Shen Yueran and Mei Caiyu are still in arrears, they can't get up, they can't afford it.
Jiang Peiwen glanced at the two of them and said, "Let's go, let's go to Jinding Pavilion together." ”
A group of six people came to Jinding Pavilion, Jiang Peiwen placed the five people in the conservatory, said that he wanted to change his clothes and left.
After a while, the two girls carried several plates of fruits, snacks and tea, and placed them in front of everyone in turn.
Jiang Peiwen is not here, Du Lingchu is the highest, and it is said that she should greet her.
However, Du Lingchu never said a word, hanging his head and tasting tea by himself, not knowing what he was thinking, but Wu Shi Niang was extremely active.
"Oh, this is a fig, have you ever eaten it?"
Wu Shiniang raised the melon and fruit in her hand and shouted at Shen Yueran and Mei Caiyu.
Figs like warmth and humidity and were introduced to China from Persia, so they are not easy for people in the capital to eat, and they are a rare thing.
The two smiled freely, Mei Caiyu tilted her head, and replied first, "I've eaten." Figs are also called Ah Yu. ”
Wu Siniang nodded, her eyes falling on another kind of melon and fruit.
"Oh, this is papaya, have you ever eaten it?"
She raised the papaya and asked again.
"I've eaten it."
Mei Caiyu raised the corners of her eyebrows, "What, Shi Niang hasn't eaten it before?" ”
Wu Siniang laughed.
"How could I not have eaten, I just asked you two if they have eaten."
As she spoke, she held up another fruit in front of her.
"Oh, this is a peach (note: kiwifruit), have you ever eaten it?"
Mei Caiyu's eyes flashed with impatience, and she was about to open her mouth, when Shen Yueran replied with a smile, "No, I haven't eaten it." ”
Wu Shi Niang seemed to be overjoyed.
"Really, you haven't eaten a peach?!"
As she spoke, she stood up, held the fruit bowl in both hands, walked up to the two, and then picked out the peaches in the fruit bowl one by one and put them in the fruit bowl in front of them.
"Eat more if you haven't eaten before."
After saying that, she didn't forget to smile at the two of them, and then returned to her place and sat down.
"There are so many melons and fruits in the world, I Wu Shiniang dare not say that I have eaten ninety percent, and I dare to say that I have eaten eighty percent. However, some melons and fruits are sweet and delicious, while others are not. ”
Wu Siniang sighed, "If you encounter delicious melons and fruits, you will eat more, and if you encounter unpalatable melons and fruits, you will eat less, but the premise is that you have to taste them." If you don't taste it, how can you know what is delicious and what is not? ”
The whites of Mei Caiyu's eyes are facing upwards, and the corners of her mouth are lightly flattened.
Of course, Shen Yueran knew what Mei Caiyu was thinking, but she thought that Wu Shi Niang was just showing off.
To say that Wu Siniang really has nothing to show off, her appearance is mediocre, her talent is weak, and her mind is shallow. Born in a family of goldsmiths, my father is an honest craftsman, not rich and noble. However, she is the only daughter in the family, and it is true that she has not suffered much. Moreover, she married into the Zhou family very early, so she has been living a rich life.
Compared to Mei Caiyu's hostility, Shen Yueran didn't think so.
Wu Shi Niang is casual and unrestrained, such a person is an easy person to chat with.
She pursed her lips and smiled, "The taste of melons and fruits does have their own merits, and each has its own taste, but how to eat it is the second." ”
"How to eat?"
Shen Yueran's statement obviously aroused Wu Shi Niang's interest.
She leaned over and said, "What is the way to eat?" ”
Shen Yueran pointed to the melon and fruit in front of her and said, "Figs have a strong and sweet taste, whether they are dried or juiced, the taste is good, but the papaya has a slightly astringent taste, so it is not suitable for direct consumption." Before eating, if it can be boiled or candied for a while, the fruity aroma will be revealed. ”
Wu Shi Niang frowned and picked up the papaya, "You said boiled papaya?" ”
She immediately laughed, "Papaya is a melon and fruit, not a vegetable, how can it be heated and boiled, you are all talking." ”
Shen Yueran said with a smile, "The boiling I am talking about is naturally not ordinary steaming, different melons and fruits have different cooking methods. ”
"Many melons and fruits are actually better boiled and eaten, and they also have a different flavor. Not much else, let's just say that Sydney pear and hawthorn have medicinal effects after cooking. There are also oranges, which are not easy to get hot after boiling, red dates, which are easier to absorb after boiling, and apples, which also have the effect of reducing weight after boiling. ”
Wu Shi Niang's attention was quickly attracted by the effect of melons and fruits in Shen Yueran's mouth.
"Can boiled apples lose weight?"
Shen Yueran nodded, "Yes." ”
Wu Shi Niang was overjoyed.
"Go back and write me a recipe for boiling melons and fruits."
She pleaded loudly.
Shen Yueran nodded, Mei Caiyu on the side glanced at her, and said faintly, "Why don't you write her the recipe for boiling papaya, I guess she needs it too." ”
The corners of Mei Caiyu's mouth and eyes were full of ridicule.
Shen Yueran felt a sigh in her heart.
Wu Shi Niang is strong and flat-chested, but it is just a rumor that papaya can enlarge breasts.
At this time, Xia Yiyi, who had been silent, suddenly asked, "What can I eat to gain weight?" ”
Only then was Shen Yueran able to carefully look at the youngest concubine.
Thin, a thin word is enough to describe all of Xia Yiyi.
A small face with a big palm, a slender chin, and a thin body that can be blown down by a cold wind.
Eyes that are bright enough to make her look like a poor little pet.
Shen Yueran said simply, "The thinness of the body may be congenital or acquired, and the reasons are very complex and cannot be generalized, but it is always okay to eat more and eat everything." ”
Xia Yiyi wanted to ask something more, Jiang Peiwen changed into civilian clothes, wore a big hat on his body, and held a stove in his hand, and walked out of the back room.
"What are you talking about, it's so lively."
She asked with a smile and sat down at the top seat.
Du Lingchu, who had not seemed to be paying attention, raised his head and replied, "It's just some women's trivialities." ”
Jiang Peiwen smiled without saying a word, called Qingyu's grandmother, and set up a banquet.
Qingyu is about forty years old and has a short stature, but her waist is straight at all times, and her meticulous bun and wrinkled clothes make people feel unapproachable.
She was the one who sent Cuiliu to her side.
Shen Yueran couldn't help but secretly look at her a few more times. (To be continued.) )
