Chapter 22 The Feast of the House of the Storm I
Wei Wei looked at the rectangular sandalwood table of eight immortals in front of her.
Ginger fish fillet, spiced pigeon, shredded chicken white fungus, osmanthus fish sticks, monk prawns, fried beef tenderloin with green onions, lotus leaf chicken, radish stewed beef, Buddha jumping over the wall, lion's head, vegetarian assortment, jade tofu and other dishes are listed one by one, and several plates of dim sum such as purple potato cake, poria cake, chestnut cake cake, bean paste roll, etc. are also presented, and all the tables are full.
"Let's all use chopsticks."
Marquis Wei glanced at the Liang family, and when he got the signal that the dishes had been served, he stepped forward to ask his mother, Mrs. Wei, and ordered the family banquet to start with permission.
"Mother, try this purple potato cake and see if it suits your taste." Mrs. Wei Hou Liang saw that Mrs. Wei had not moved her chopsticks, so she pointed to the purple potato cake on the table in front of her and said to Mrs. Wei with a smile.
Following the wind of Liang's words, Mama Liu stepped forward and saluted: "Old lady, the old slave is presumptuous today." Try it, this is what Madame cooked today. ”
Liang glanced at Mama Liu, who was standing on the side, and scolded: "What did Mama say about this?" ”
It was a rebuke, but the word of punishment was not spoken.
Wei Wei chuckled in her heart. has watched so many costume house fighting dramas, this routine is not unfamiliar at all.
Liang first recommended sincerely, and then Mama Liu jumped out and pointed out that this was made by Liang himself, and Liang reprimanded a few words without pretending to be painless. It's simple, but it's very practical. At least as a daughter-in-law, this can not only show her filial piety and attention to the old lady just right, but also curry favor with her husband and wife, and also show the virtue of being a housewife to Manchu, killing three birds with one stone.
Didn't you see the very satisfied look that Marquis Wei handed over to the Liang family?
As for the purple potato cake, whether it was made by the Liang family or not, who cares?
Sure enough.
"Really? Then I have to taste it carefully, it's hard for you to remember me so much, Ying'er. "This kind of small means, Mrs. Wei, who was born in the palace, is naturally clear. She smiled and narrowed her eyes. Don't be stupid, don't be deaf, don't be a family. No matter what, the sincerity of the daughter-in-law's filial piety is always good, and the people are also pleasing her, and the juniors are pleasing the elders, which is the right share. What's more, aside from this, as the wife of the head of the Lianghou Mansion, this face always has to be given.
Ming Lan, who was standing quietly beside Mrs. Wei and was ready to serve at any time, quickly stepped forward when she heard this, and dropped the purple potato cake that was a little farther away from Mrs. Wei and another snack for Mrs. Wei to use.
On the other side, Minghuang stepped forward intimately and poured the best red robe in the teacup. Because the purple potato cake is a snack made of glutinous rice, I'm afraid the old lady will choke after eating it.
Mama Zhong knelt on the mat and waited aside. At this moment, he directly picked up the chopsticks and grabbed a piece of purple potato cake to Mrs. Wei's plate.
The purple potato cake recipe is not complicated. It is to use purple potato slices and steam to press the mud, add glutinous rice flour and flour to knead the dough into small agents and flatten, and then press the red bean paste filling into a ball for later use, wrap it and press it into a round cake, roll it on the sesame seeds and fry it.
It's just that Mrs. Wei's taste is not something that ordinary purple potato cakes can satisfy. When she was young, Mrs. Wei just loved to eat purple potato cakes but didn't have much requirements, and when she got older, she ate purple potato cakes inside and outside the palace. At the same time, the taste is degraded, and you have to put some white sugar to eat sweet, but this amount of sugar has become a problem, you can't eat it if you have less, and you can't eat it if you have more, and most of the skillful cooks are a little bad.
Wei Wei looked at the purple potato cake not far in front of her, and didn't know how this was?
Mrs. Wei picked up the round purple potato cake with chopsticks and took a small bite, her movements were elegant and noble.
Under the eyes of everyone, the old lady was silent for a moment, and then smiled with satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad, the entrance is sweet and fragrant, and the aftertaste is long, you have a heart." The last sentence was addressed to Mrs. Liang.
Liang's tense breath suddenly let go, and he smiled toothlessly: "Mother praises falsely, what your daughter-in-law should do for you." ”
The old lady smiled lightly, and then said to everyone: "What are you doing in a daze?" This good dish has come up, can you be full? Today is a family banquet in our house, you don't have to be too restrained. ”
Wei Houye was also busy adding: "Mother said yes." You little ones don't have to be restrained, let's eat. ”
As he spoke, he sandwiched a piece of purple potato cake.
This is to save face for Mrs. Liang.
For a while, everyone worked hard for the purple sweet potato cake in front of them.
Wei Wei noticed that the purple potato cake in front of Mrs. Wei had not been touched since the first bite.
When the purple potato cake was in her mouth, Wei Wei couldn't help frowning. It's so sweet······ I panicked, and hurriedly stuffed a sip of tea to ease up.
At this time, the third sister next to her began to be unwilling to be lonely and brush her sense of existence.
"Second sister, come, you take a bite of this lion's head, I tasted it just now, the taste is tender, and the craftsmanship of the people under my mother is really not to say." Miss Wei San, Wei Yuan, took a lion's head in front of her and put it on the plate of Wei Liang, Miss Wei Er.
Ancient children really can't be underestimated, and of course Wei Wei didn't underestimate either. Wei Yuan's move on the one hand showed the love between the juniors of the Weihou Mansion, and on the other hand, he praised his mother-in-law Liang.
Obviously, Miss Wei Er also likes to eat lion heads, but she was a little far away from the lion's head before, and she inevitably lost her manners. Although she is young, Liang has never relaxed in terms of rules and etiquette. Now that the third sister has been clipped, she is really happy.
Mrs. Wei, who was seated, smiled quite comfortably when she saw this scene, and even the fish fillets that she didn't usually like to eat made Mama Zhong take a few bites of sweetness.
Mama Zhong couldn't help but laugh on the side: "Old lady, look, these girls in our house are all outstanding, and they know that they love sisters at such a young age." ”
"Well, although the three girls are young, this aspect is really good." Old Madam Wei looked at Liang, "You did a good job." ”
Wei Hou Ye also nodded on the side, glanced at the grain, and his eyes were full of satisfaction.
"This is the duty of a daughter-in-law, and I dare not be a compliment to my mother." Liang smiled reluctantly in the direction of Old Madam Wei. Then the jealous eyes caught a glimpse of the Cui Shi on the right, kneeling on the cushion with low eyebrows, revealing a little joy.
! Liang was resentful in his heart. Ping Su'an keeps to himself, but at this time he knows how to please the old lady, what's the use?! No matter how pleasing she is, this Hou Mansion is also her Liang Ying!
Not to mention that she actually picked up that little hoof (Miss Wei San, Wei Yuan) with her daughter as a pedal, and indirectly seduced Hou Ye (Author: You guessed wrong, Hou Ye's glance was actually looking at you, but Cui Shi also sat behind you... )······
The few Wei Wei on the side didn't notice the turbulent waves here.
"Thank you, third sister." Miss Wei Er gave Wei Yuan a sweet smile back. "What do you want to eat? I'll give you the clip. ”
